Hi guys. I have a factory refurbished AT&T E980 that had stock 4.2.2 on it when I got it. Assuming it was the last OTA that was pushed out. I attempted to downgrade to 10g because I was still learning the recovery options for this phone. I've since flashed most of the available JB builds with similiar results. From off, the phone will show the AT&T logo for a few seconds, then go to a black screen for several seconds. Then I have to hit the power button twice to bring up the home screen. There is no boot animation, but you can hear the accompanying sound. I seemingly cannot get any roms to boot, other than stock, as they all hang at a black screen, even after wiping/factory reset. I also cannot get any variants of recoveries to work, other than the CWM packaged with GPro Recovery. The TWRP included with that only shows a black screen with the back and menu buttons lit up, and the home button cycling through colors.
I've searched through the forums and haven't seen anyone experiencing this issue. My only clue to the problem is reading something about another LG phone that, once refurbished, came with updated display drivers that caused a similar issue. Here.
Any insight would be appreciated.
*Edit
I flashed SphinX Pro v2.0 after posting this. It corrected the above issues, and allowed me to boot into the included philz recovery with no problems. I then tried to use philz to flash the Cloudy TWRP in preparation for installing Super Mini V6.5 but was unsuccessful. What I assume is supposed to be recovery is now a black screen. The bootanimation is gone, but I no longer have to cycle the power button to show the home screen once it boots all the way up.

I was trying out using a keyboard with a cheap USB OTG cable, and all was good. Then all of the sudden the screen went buggy, where ever other line of pixels was shifted to the left or the right, almost like some sort of corrupted video file. It started to reboot itself, and it got to the black screen with the Google logo and then the screen fuzzed in the same way as before. It then starts to reboot and does the same thing over and over again. I find that I can get to the recovery screen with the scroll arrows. From there, if I tell it to reboot into recovery it goes back into the same Google logo bootloop. I then went back to the original recovery screen and I decide to try out adb to see if it works. Sure enough it does, and I unwisely start flashing a stock 4.2 bootloader image. However, while it is flashing the screen does the same fuzz thing and and stays fuzzed. Then it doesn't respond to anything. I take out the battery, and try to restart and with will not turn on at all, no vibration, no light from the screen, nothing. I tried a unbricking methods from there, and nothing can make it come back alive. Any ideas?

Hey,
so I just recently bought the Oppo Find 7 (2560x1440) and just wanted to root it and install a custom ROM. When I attempted to flash another recovery it failed, I assume due to resolution issues (it only showed half of the recovery while flashing incredibly).
Then I managed to get nameless' recovery which apparently has the right resolution and could work with it. But it was already reddish / white from the get go, didn't think much of it and kept using it.
Now, when booting up the device, there's a white/red corner around the whole screen, that is supposed to be black and I can see elements from nameless' recovery.
Also flashed CM12 onto it and everything is white/red, when pressing the power button to lock / sleep the device, and pressing it again screen stays black.
Any help would be appreciated.
Problem solved. Thread closed at OP's request.
I recently attempted to flash CleanROM. When I completed the initial boot, the screen was completely black and I could not press anything. When I hold down the power button it pops up with the "power off" dialog box. I restarted it and still the same situation. I then went back into recovery and flashed the Stock + Root ROM and I am having the exact same issues. The screen is working in recovery and the boot animation shows but after it finishes booting I just have a black screen and then I can only "power off". Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

I had the same problem once. No matter of full wipefrom recovery and flash a different ROM, the screen was still black. The only way I found to fix it is to flash the factory image from googlw and then root and flash ROMs again and the black screen disappeared.
Hi all.
So, my screen has been dodgy a few weeks now. Basically, if it's too dark or a pop-up comes up, it'll fade out, and I need to switch it off and knock back on.
Anyway, when on it today, I got a Blue Screen of Death and since, the screen hasn't given me anything in the way of details in Recovery. I can't see a thing. And I believe the LEDs are telling me it is in a bootloop. So I essentially need a step-by-step guide on how to restore to factory settings WITHOUT using the screen. (Vol - x2, Power, that sort of thing.)
Can anyone help a brother out?
EDIT: I might add, powering on with the battery in into Download or Recovery mode doesn't seem to be working. However, it'll power up without the battery in and just the USB to PC.
EDIT EDIT: Rooted, Stock Lollipop.

I have the same rom and i have blue screen.Is a problem of the rom?
I was an idiot and did a factory reset (not while in recovery mode) and when everything restarted I ended up with my tablet stuck trying to load TWRP - I am/was running the lastest CM nightly from the end of May, I don't know what version of TWRP is currently on there. I just get the blue teamwin screen that stays there for about 5 seconds, flashes black, then back to the teamwin screen again. I got it into download mode one time, but as I was not in a situation where I could take advantage, and have since forgotten what I did to get it into download mode. (I think) I've tried all the button combinations with the tablet in the bootloop, and with it off (dead battery) to no avail. I've checked the forums and the few that I've found with the same situation as me, there is either no solution offered, or the solution was never posted, just that the situation was resolved - the thread most resembling my situation is this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help/galaxy-tab-s-sm-800-stuck-flashing-twrp-t3219865.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you need more information, let me know. Thanks!
