[HELP] LG G3 D855 touch screen dead spot - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My LG G3 D855 LCD has no issue, but the touch screen has dead spots, recently, i tried the "igniter trick" on lighter but it got worst. Then after how many weeks, the deadspot on my g3 fixed, but on the "notification area" didnt fixed. So i can't slip down the task bar "wifi, data mobile, flashlight, etc shortcuts". Is there any fix on dead spot? I got no tempered glass.

Two dead spots area, the one's fixed already, it just came back.

i cant pull down the tray (dead spot)

Yp!!!!!!!!!!

Are you at Stock right?
If you are,then try
-Reflashing your Android Operating System
-Custom ROM try:
-Wipe Dalvic cache and Cache.If even that doesn't work the reflash your ROM.
-If nothing worked then buy a new LCD.

Oh man reflashing? Does factory reset not work?

I think everything will be pointless so..i recommend you buying a new screen for your phone.
Happy new year

Mine started having problems last week for no reason, it just started to fail on me..started in the status bar area and has gotten worse..
Eveything else is working fine, so this is a bit of a shame..
I did a quick Google search and found others also have the same problem.
Already tried reflashing different firmware from N to M but didn't fix it.
I think LG failed on their QC or this might have been an issue with being on the cutting edge, as this is the first 2k display and the thinnest bezel of its time.
My D855 is about a year old, so maybe instead of replacing the digitizer, I might replace the entire phone altogether.

i was just making sure it was not the rom he had installed, sorry if you thought i was talking about redoing the rom and that would fix it but their is no way a rom could fix that he prolly dropped his phone 1 to many times
Yeah, i have dropped it a number of times.. but never it happened like this. this has been happening since a week now.. I have WM6 Premuim V2 by Dutty.. Its been on my phone since almost a year now.. Recently I had installed WM6.1 S64 Lite.. But that was very unstable and slowed the phone down.. So now I am back on WM6 Premuim V2 by Dutty..
Hope this helps..
You should DL the htc maintenance manual and try reconnecting the lcd cables. I had whitescreen issues and bottom of screen jumping t top so I bit the bullet and opened hermes up. was considerably easier than expected ( though do yourself a fovour and get the torque set (torque 6) ) and had it pulled apart then put back together in less than an hour. there is a lot of unneeded dissassembly in the maintenance manual (just take apart whats needed) but read thoroughly and do step by step and you should have no problem. Hope this helps you out...cheers....

Yep.. it was the issue with LCD.. also my screen would go fully white and nothing would happen after that.. That happens everytime I slide it.. It is found that the slide strip is the issue.. so that has to be replaced for it to solve..

[Q] weird thing happening to my mytouch slide

hey watsup everyone,
the weirdest thing is up with my phone.. it takes a while to boot up and my touchscreen dont work, my trackpad dont work, but i can click it. it always takes me to the new setup screen with the themes and all that.. i think it might be missing files because its not rooted..
can somebody please help me? ive tried everything and searched everywhere, but its not working.. some help will really be appreciated,, this phones still fresh with the factory protector on it in goood shape.
also, when it boots up with memory card, it says "Sorry! Process system is not responding. Force close Wait ",,
i can also move around using the tab to move, but down to the left,, and if i click the trackpad or enter, it "clicks" it...
Pleeaasse somebody helpp!!
Thankss again!!

there is a separate section for the MT3G Slide
Ohk, sorry,
Can a mod please move this to the correct section, and/or can somebody help me with this?
Thanks again in advanced!!
Moving to Slide.
Sounds like hardware issues (maybe with the ribbon cable from the top screen to the bottom keyboard).
Call tmobile and get it replaced, it's still under warranty (unless your water stickers are pink).

It could be that, or it could be a simple software issue. He could try rooting the phone and flashing cm6 or cr_mod or something, it could be system file corruption, but I guess if he's unrooted and under warranty why not just get it replaced, it'd be less work
I think its more software than hardware.. here's the thing. I bought it from some guy from craigslist.. it DID work but a while after it started doing this.. I'm using a g2 on a family plan.. ccan I still call tmobile n tell em my phone isn't working and will they send me a new one even though I did not buy it from them?

Doubtful since you didn't buy the phone from them. If you want to remain stock, I would root and then flash the slide stock nandroid backup (there's a thread with the file, just type that in the search bar). That *should* fix it if it's a software issue.
*After flashing the stock nandroid backup you'll be unrooted again. It will be like it was the first time it was booted.

Problem after updating to JB .211 and rooting.

A few days after updating my Xperia s from JB.200 to JB 211 and rooting it with Doomlord's rooting kit my touchscreen stopped reacting. It was showing perfectly and I was able to use the phone with MyPhoneExplorer. I also did the following check:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025736&page=2
and it showed the screen is OK so the problem is in the software.
Had to take it to the shop for repair

If it was a software problem then a simple re flash was enough.
pannekoek28 said:
aww sad problem. But what is your question exactly? You returned it to the shop, so we can't help you anymore.
Next time try reflashing the ROM (.211) using flashtool

Well actually the purpose of this thread was to warn other fellow members of such a problem.
As for your advice, I did flash it twice, once flashing it again to 211 anda second time "downgrading" back to .200, both didn't fix the bug.
Did you wiped everything before flashing ?

Now that you mention it I did UNMARK the data, catch and apsslog hoping I wont need to strat from scratch. could it be that the bug was hiding somewhere in them?
Another solution I encounterd was this:
This is a common problem with many touch screen phones. There are about three reasons this can happen that I know of:
1. Hardware issue. Needs to go in for repair. Hopefully under warranty still.
2. Needs to be re-flashed with the OEM ROM. This is not likely, since you've already Hard Reset, but worth a try.
3. The EASIEST and FIRST thing to check is to run a 'business card' around the edge of the screen between the case and screen. Dirt or other objects can easily get wedged into that area and hold the screen pressed down. This would prevent a press from any other area of the screen. Also, a screen protector that has shifted might cause this. Hopefully this is it, as it's a simple fix!

Always do a fresh clean flashing of rom. That will eliminate all the hidden bugs.

The problem with this suggestion is that the Xperia S, like the vast majority of modern smartphones, uses a capacitative touchscreen which does not operate by detecting physical displacements of the screen surface. If it did then people wouldn't have problems using touchscreen phones wearing cloves and such like. Older style resistive touchscreens did work that way, but they're not widely used in smartphones any more and certainly not in the Xperia S. So while the advice offered might actually be effective, it can't be for the reason stated.

problem with keyboard htc one m8

after i update phone to 5.0.1 sometimes i have a problem with keyboard ,randomly they stopped work ,
when i tapping the place and keyboard should appear nothing happens.
after one or two minut going back :/
any experience with this,,
thank guys
i noticed the same thing...i had to reboot the phone few times...
Same issue here!
You can wait till christmas, but nothing works to get your keyboard back..except booting..
Yes same issue here. I've mentioned it not long after the Developer Edition received the OTA.
It's not even something that we can recreate, it's just completely random. It stays that way until a reboot and then it's fine again. Very irritating.

Hello, the same problem with the keyboard .On any firmware, I have 6 different firmware problem persists.
p . s . TEL Verizon
Still having this damn problem.. Anyone know if it's isolated to Verizon phones? I'm on Verizon 5.0.1 stock, both the HTC and Google keyboard do it. Completely random, about once every day to 2-3 days. So annoying.

I had a problem with the keyboard lagging which got worse after the lollipop update, I was considering a warranty claim or rooting the phone and then the microphone packed in and the decision was made, I called the network who advised me to send it to HTC for repair which I did, it also had a few sync problems too, I asked the technical support guy about this problem and he said it would have to be reflashed, I sent it to them and they did the work, replacement microphones, replacement receiver, replacement lower board, replacement rubber something or other which I was told is something under the screen, replacement camera and a few others and of course it was flashed, I got it back after 8 days expecting my otherwise brilliant phone to be as it should be as I have come to expect from HTC, I switched it on and did the initial stages of making it work, I let it restore the last backup I made (off the phone with faults) which reported had failed but it started to restore the backed up apps, settings and my contacts, everything restored to how I had it before minus a couple of apps and a few notification settings, I have been using it for 2 days now however the keyboard has not been fixed by flashing it, unless the errors could have been brought in by the restoration? I have experienced the screen freeze and start jumping, jumping to the all open apps page, keyboard lag, keyboard is inaccurate, I went into the EE shop and they said that it should go back to HTC again, I haven't tried to hard reset it and go back to the factory settings and not restore the backup image this time, I've never had any problems with the 3 HTC phones I've owned, it is a good phone otherwise
Damn, I just went back to Dev Edition and sure enough it happened to me. Has this ever been fixed? This is way too annoying for me.
Possible Fix
For what it's worth, I went into App Manager to clear the Sense Input data as suggested by a previous poster (thank you) but did not have a 'Clear Data' button. There was a 'Settings' button though where I was able to turn off HTC Sense Input, after which my Swype keyboard immediately started working again. First time I've been able to resolve this SUPER annoying issue without rebooting the phone. Time will tell if it's a real fix; I'll update this post if not.
Phone is a brand new M8, still on stock 5.0.1

Oneplus 5T suddenly lagging

Hi, so i've been using the Oneplus 5T for a year and just recently it started having issues with lag, making the phone unusable. I tried installing different roms without success(Oxygen OS Open Beta 23, Lineage OS 16, and Oxygen OS 5.1.4) and i have no idea what is causing it. This issue began while i was on the OOS beta 23 and it wasn't rooted, it just started behaving that way suddenly i didn't drop it or anything, also the screen blinks and start doing weird things sometimes. Did anyone had this issue? And what can be causing it? Thanks
Link to a video of my problem: https://youtu.be/17LOiftTf8w
Found the issue. Apparently it's caused by google play services, if i clear the data of the app the phone works fine and as soon as i install something from the store it starts lagging again
I always have this issue after finishing a clean setup on oxygen os beta. One restart for me solves and never returns.
same here

If you find a solution please let me know i ran out of ideas my fix with the play services stopped working, thanks
What the hell is that lag issue seriously ??
I was thinking to flash a custom kernel and ROM but would it solve the issue ?
And the issue is completely random as well.
I have the exact same issue. Starts when i download something from playstore, open camera after a while or transfer big files e.g transferring data through oneplus switch. I have tried everything i could and didnt help. Upgrades, downgrades, root, trimming storage, clearing cache etc. Nothing is helping. If anyone finds a solution please tell me too. Really frustrated ?
The problem occured on official ROM but it comes back even on Lineage OS 16 (official too).
Do you think it could be a hardware issue ? If not, how come this problem happens even when flashing an other ROM ?

For me it lags all the time, the phone is unusuable. I can reboot, flash a new ROM ... nothing will solve it.
I had this problem for almost 3 weeks and no fix from Oneplus, so I will buy a new phone.

I had the same issue 2 months ago, I tried everything to fix the problem even did hard reset using oneplus' official program and it didn't work.
I came to a conclusion that it's a hardware issue so I sent my phone to repair and one week later I got my phone back fixed.
I recommend you to do the same if you still have warranty, the whole process took only one week. The customer service is really good.

Maybe try to reset your phone by using MsmDownloadTool, if that doesn't fix your problem then it must be a hardware issue.

The problem is that (not only i lost the warranty) but i'm not from the USA and sending them the phone is kind of hard and expensive, to the point that i think buying a new phone is cheaper. I reached to support anyways but i'm still waiting for a response after 3 days. What did they change on your phone?

I don't know what did they replace I didn't get any information about that. The screen is the same though they didn't change it, my guesses are either it's the motherboard or the motherboard to screen connector (it's called main flex I think, you can get on for about 3$)
