Display Graphic problem

I've got a problem with a OneX I'm trialling for work.
This is a stock device with the latest OTA update applied. I installed Good for Enterprise, activated it, and got my work emails. I opened a PDF attachment which opened for a couple of seconds then the display glitched.
The attached images show what I mean. The display is glitched for every screen. Soft resetting the phone was okay until it started again a couple of minutes later.
Soft resetting a 2nd time was where my real problems started. The phone vibrated as it started, but the display stayed dark. If I tap the power, the touch buttons light up. If I go through the motions of the lock ring and my gesture lock, I feel vibrations of my actions but can't see a thing. If I ring the phone, it rings, the touch buttons light up and the LED blinks. The display stays dark at all times.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? It's almost like when a graphic card overheats in a PC.
I would try a hard reset, see what that does, it should fix it as it looks like software problem
Squeeze your phone between thumb and forefinger (on the screen and rear cover) about 1.5-2cm in from the USB port, and slightly below. Let us know if the screen comes back on.

I think your phone is on drugs.
Seriously though, that's the scariest gfx bug I've seen on a phone.
Work were just as surprised as everyone else.
It's been sent back to them so they can talk with Vodafone about just what's happened with it.
In the few days I had it, it's a decent phone. The primary reason for considering the OneX is the screen size, and the fact you can read a PDF clearly on it.

Mine looks exactly the same once Ive had a few whisky's...
I had the exact same problem, so I shipped off my phone to service.
They actually changed the whole motherboard. I got my phone back 2 days ago, and it is working better than ever. Even better than before they changed the board.
My guess; Same problem as me. Busted motherboard. Im waiting to get a reply from the service guys that fixed my phone, so I can get some solid answers about what was actually wrong.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Sebastian

[Q] HELP! Always Active Front Camera!

Hi, I have a very weird problem with my N7100. When I put my finger or anything in front of my front camera, the toggle bar will disappear and the screen will be still and no response. This is really bothering especially when I am playing games. Cause I swipe my finger in front of my front camera unpurposely and the game will be interrupted. It looks like the front camera is active to detect anything in front it, and if there is any thing blocking front camera, the screen will be frozen up!
This problem start with my official system (Samsung Touchwiz) comes with N7100. So I rooted my phone and put alliencerom there, it comes back again....If you restart the system, it goes away for a while and will come back sometime. Really bothering, I have found out what is the trigger, I believe there is a trigger though.
So I don't know any N7100 user encountered the same problem? And any idea about getting rid of it?
Thanks so much!

I checked all those and they are off, I actually never turned them on. Today I found that after I use groove ip make a phone call. The problem will come up. I don't know exactly how.....
I test it a little and I found it is the function of Groove IP which freeze the screen when you are making a call. But somehow after you done with your call, the front camera just keeps doing so. I think there is something with screen rotation during the call.
Now I think problem solved by checking off "auto rotate" in Groove ip setting.
Thanks, XDAer.

[HELP] Orientation sensor got stuck

Hi folks,
Today I realised that after I turn the auto-rotation on, my phone refuse to set itself to landscape mode as it should. I also tried the game bikerace, which was working a few days ago, now the bike constantly makes backflips as if I turned my phone upside down. No matter which direction I hold my phone, it always makes backflips, and never frontflips.. I usually turn the auto-rotation off so I don't know since when this issue exist. I'm sure not more than a week. even factory reset didn't help. any ideas?
The attached picture is a screenshot taken when the phone was absolutely horizontal-positioned.
Thanks

Sensor problems (brightness, auto rotate etc)

Since a few weeks my LG G3 has te following problems:
- Auto rotation is not working
- Camera is unable to focus frequently when starting the app for the first time
- Camera is not saving while recording, but photos are working fine
- Screen is not turning off while making a phone call
- Auto brightness is not working
- Sometimes the infrared sensor at the front side of the screen is constantly turned on, untill I reboot
I've dropped the phone once, very softly from like 20 cm, on the right bottom side.
The strange thing is that the problems occurd step by step and sometimes disappeared after rebooting, but now all the problems listed above are unfixable.
Checked CPU-Z at the sensors tab, none of them seem to work:
And the original values from a fully working LG G3:
Any ideas on how to fix this, it's getting really annoying right now.
Thanks,
Niek
I guess returning the phone to LG is not going to work, since it has already one scratch mark on it from falling.
Any ideas?
hi @Niekjuh,, how the solution for your phone ?
Returned the phone, they could not repair it so returned the money instead.

[Q] Front camera settings is an enigma

Not a disaster but really got me curious.
I looked everywhere. There is always a user guide for the rear camera, never for the front as far as I could find. I just want to know what is that first option in the front camera settings. What does it do? (icon of hand holding phone and an arrow)?
Take a picture with front facing camera, then bring the phone down and it will automatically show the preview of the pic you took, that's If you have it "ON".
On the other hand, if its " OFF", there is no automatic preview.
Hope it helps =)
