Hi there brought this second hand Nexus from well known auction site. Fully aware of it being faulty, after finally switching on (power ribbon cable was loose) the screen switched on usual google popped up but once fully loaded it becomes fragmented. There are tears on the screen as I touch it.

I went into bootloader where the screen loaded up as normal
As you can see there is no glitches with the screen loading this up. I then proceeded to do a stock flash from 5.1.1 to 5.0.0 to see if its just a corrupted rom. No luck still the same.
Has anyone come accross this problem and know what is the fix? Before I tear this nexus apart for spares for my other nexus or even plug the screen to test on another ?
Any suggestions would be appreciated

When you flashed the factory image, did you flash all of it including kernel? I would try to get into TWRP and install a ROM to see if the problem persists. (You can boot into TWRP without installing it if you want to keep it stock recovery)

So about two weeks ago, I switched to iPhone because I'm giving my S3 to my dad. I haven't used it since then so I fully expected the battery to die. However, when I went to charge it today the LED at the top left isn't lighting on and I get this

.
Whenever I try to plug in the battery while it's connected with the USB, the red LED pops up for 3 seconds and then it goes away.
Any ideas guys? Please help me.

I did see it. But we don't have the same problem.
My phone won't even get to the boot sequence and I know it's not a brick of any kind because the phone was working fine before I switched the iP5. I left the phone in the glove compartment of my car for a week or so, is it possible that could have messed with it? The phone was inside of the box and everything so I can't imagine it got too hot.
Well did you try the suggestions there? Keeping the battery out for a while and then putting it in and trying to boot?

Yeah I did but still no dice.
couple of things
Try a different battery
Try a different charger
Sometimes extreme heat and cold (from a glove compartment) can ruin a battery or the phone itself. Extreme temps are hell on phones. It's probably a good idea to remove the batterty and keep it inside if phone is being stored. Also, some chargers to go bad...had it happen. Anyway, you might have tried these things already. Good luck!:good:
So, yeah, my phone's been a douche lately and has developed a new symptom making me unable to start it at all.

That's pretty much it, it's frozen on this screen whenever I attempt to charge it and the power button does nothing except turning the screen off. It's been charging all night.

try to reflash the firmware with odin, or go to stock firmware with kies using this guide (you can find s/n of your phone by pulling out the battery)
report if it worked for you

That's the problem though, I can't get it into download mode nor recovery. From what I've found after spending some time searching, it's a flat or dead battery.

Nah, rooted and opened in the past. Not really a huge issue but I'll try with a different battery next week and hope for the best.

Hey there.
I have a problem with my HTC One M8. First of all, I have slightly damaged the screen in the upper right corner and it has a black spot, like 3-4 weeks ago. Because of the fact I am on my vacations and I am 24/7 on move, I don't have time to fix it and it's not that much of a problem as the phone was 100% functional with that issue - the screen reacts to touch in that black spot. But let's get straight to the real issue. Yesterday, before going bed, my phone had 20% battery. I am used to fall asleep watching some vids/other stuff @ Youtube and so it was @ yesterday's night. When I woke up, my battery was dead so naturally I plugged the adapter to charge it. What struck me was the fact that the screen didn't react to charging. I tried switching to other adapters but no result. I tried to turn on the phone anyway - if the screen is messed up, the phone should turn on anyway and greet me with some sound - it did not. I borrowed my friends laptop and connected the phone to it in order to find out what's going on. The moment I plugged it in and it installed some usb drivers, the laptop didnt display 2 disks (the phone itself + the sd card) but plenty of disks (D-Z) which the laptop wanted to format immediately (havent done that - last resort move). I have installed the HTC Sync Manager but it doesnt find the phone. It may be due to the screen damage, however, I strongly doubt that and I think it's some software issue. Has anybody had such a problem? What should I do? What kinds of software shall I download to try to tackle this issue?

Thanks in advance for any answer.
My android version is 4.4.4.
Soft version 3.28.401.9
HTC SDK API 6.25
Compilation 3.2.8.401.9 CL389833
Not branded
Let the phone charge for several hours, then hold Power+Vol up for a minute or more , and see if there is any change.
CAUSE I AM A NEW USER, COULDN'T POST THE IMAGE IN HERE, SO SEE MY REPLY AT https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73388497&postcount=2
What i think could have caused this is the charging at home, cause devices connected to certain outlets in my house sometimes have a lot of static electricity in them (voltage fluctuation maybe?) e.g. sometimes the digitizer became unresponsive when connected to the charger + The metallic back filled with static to the point you can't hold the bare phone in the hand anymore, but some other times it was completely fine
PS. The phone has been dropped only once, and that was back in December
All the rest of the digitizer works absolutely fine, and I wouldn't really say it's completely unresponsive, it does respond to my touches but as can be seen in the pic, whenever i touch that rectangular part, it instead registers two touches above and below that region, instead of in that rectangular region.
This initially started happening like a month ago, shortly after i installed OB19, thought it was some software bug, updating to OB20 and then 21 didn't help, i did dirty flashed 4.1.6 and i think it worked for a short while on it(don't really recall correctly now cause i immediately went back to OB because systems app didn't worl cuase of dirty flash)
And after that, things that i have tried and didn't work:
Revert to 4.1.3(Clean Flash)
Revert to 4.1.0(Clean Flash)
Install LOS with firmware from OB19(Clean Flash)
Completely draining the phone twice
What i haven't tried:
Install some older LOS build with old firmware that I know didn't have this problem(e.g 4.1.0)
Currently on 4.1.6 after clean flashing; and the issue also occurs in TWRP too, so i guess it's RIP for the digitizer? Or is this fixable, couldn't find much info about it on XDA/reddit/random forums, not really a common issue i think, did find some threads though but those were from 2011-2013 mostly

The exact same thing happened to me last year. I ended up sending it in to get it repaired under their insurance :/ I tried everything to get it fixed and absolutely nothing worked
I had my phone plugged into the charger and when I turned it on I got this screen. When I reboot, I don't see the boot up screen logo , it just takes me to this screen and I see this big block of white. Any idea what the issue may be?

Try forcing a reboot by holding voldown+power. Let me know if it doesn't work.

Unfortunately its the first thing I did. It doesn't boot with the samesung log, instead with a white screen as above but I see some of the text behind it (like asking for pin number etc)
Will it go into the boot menu?
nope
That really sucks... sorry to hear this. Happens on the S series phones apparently too.
A loose display ribbon connector... maybe.
Looks like a blown display.
Did it recieve any hard impacts?
Always use a good case like the Zizo Bolt.
If so and it was me I would replace the display or order a new N10+ N975U1, they are still available. Almost all of these are loaded with Q.
Personally I refuse to run Android 11 or higher.
If you don't object to Android 11 you can find them used for about the price to replace the display.
Samsung simply doesn't have any other flagship phone that I would buy over the N10+ including the S23U. I have a known good US vendor that sells new ones for $650 which is about twice that of a used one. Bought one from them about 14 months ago. Pristine in the factory sealed box. He buys up unsold lots. The last manufacturer ones were factory loaded with Q.
