[Q] Problems whit my nook color - Nook Color General

Hi,7 weeks ago I got a Color Nook and enjoy it much until ...... began to fail ........... here are the fault ........ My Nook is original and not modified in any way.
1 .- Turns to itself.
2 .- home flashed on the screen and displays a black box with a message.
3 .- Some features are not functioning as the zoom to spread the fingers on the screen. Have a Screen shot but for being my first post I can not upload the photo.
4 .- The power button does not respond, only responds sometimes and not others ..
Note. It began when the last update was installed about 2 weeks ago.

The screen shot is of the home screen flashing and black box whit a message.
If someone wants to view or upload help me please.

And another thing I forgot ........ in Setting About Your Nookcolor ----- ---- Software version .......... Unavailable said.
Sorry but I think this is also important.

Sounds like you have bad hardware, I would return it and get a new one if you can.

Ok, thank you, I thought I could avoid having to go to the store of B & N. ....... but I see I'll have to do it ............
Thanks for you help.

My Xperias problems

First of all. Xperia x1 - the best phone till this day.
but i have some problems. I have the phone abouth 5-6 months now and:
1. M, N and SPACE buttons sometimes when i vant to tap a button they write like MMMM or NNN ajd SPACE semethimes tipes 3-4 spaces instead of just one.
2. for the last 3 weeks sometimes while making a call i dont hear a thing but then i turn on the speaker and i can hear the ringing or the other person who has already answerd. but it i turn off the speaker i dont hear him any more. I noticed sometimes it helps if i slide open and close the phone but not always.
3. Abouth an hour ago I wanted to slide open the phone to surf the net a little and when i start tho slide the screen (even very slowly) whe screns every other row gets black imediatly, the other rows of pixels that didnt get black imediatly start to fade and in a second of 2 the whole screen is black here and there some grey stripes are visible but it looks awful. like my xperia is diyng.
problem 2 and 3 seem to be caosed because of some slider/contact problem.
Now i have hard SPLed my xperia and i would like to get it to factory settings. I would like even that bootloader version or what ever its called to be the factory one. I have original WWE R3AA but the bootloader is stil the dard SPLed one Onlix or something like that.
Does anyone have any ideas abouth my 3 problems?
Does anyone have any idea abouth recovering the factory bootloader?

I lol'd.
OP he is right. Your problems are hardware related, not software.
yeah i have the same problem! most of the keys of the left side of the keyboard write multiple times. I'd not call Xperia the best mobile... sony messed up on this phone! all the pre release hype amounted to a greatly faulted machine! if 800$ gets you a phone whose case paint comes off easily, keyboard starts to die, cracks on the case and really sucky panels then how can it be a great device! too bad now i am stuck with this abomination!
The keyboard issue is a common one I think. I took mine back to be repaired and it came back with a new keyboard....

HTC diamond screen problem solved!(Microp error) [ Assistance Cont. by Request ]

Before you proceed, please note that I cannot be accountable/liable for any damage caused to your phone. This is only a guide!*
THIS TUTORIAL IS ONLY FOR HTC TOUCH DIAMOND - NOT FOR DIAMOND2 / TOUCH PRO / HD2 ( This is simply because i don't have these devices with me and that i haven't tested! Those who have a spare handset are welcome to send it to me for diagnosis )
Let me get straight to the point. I’ve found out the solution to all the screen blackouts or the famous “microp error”. I’m sure no HTC so called Technical department could solve this.
I’ve been sitting 40Hrs straight with my HTC Diamond. ( The worst part is removing the screw’s and putting them back.)
THE PROBLEM –
1.It’s a hardware problem. Upgrading the microp.dll will not solve anything. ( Microchips gives really wired errors)
2.SYMPTOMS : A dialogue box showing “ Microp version 0 , Upgrade firmware “ (as far as I can remember) , dim or no backlight , no charging indicator , No backlight for physical keys , no touch sense (D button) , soft reset button non responsive..
3.EARLY WARNINGS: (a). If u have dropped your HTC diamond , then there is an 87% chance of this happening. (b.) Exposure to extreme cold/heat. ( if it’s a heat issue then u might need to replace the motherboard.)
THE SOLUTION
I don’t have a cam to record the entire event. But there is a YouTube video of an HTC dissembling. I’ve downloaded the video and put captions in it so that it would be clearer. Video will be uploaded soon.
Diamond de-assembling video - http://bit.ly/bxtcw0 (some Chinese guy , thanks dude)
PROCEDURE
When you remove the back cover , you’ll see
1.The battery
2.Sim card holder
3.Tons of screw’s
Remove all the visible screw’s.Remember , your warranty will get void if you have one!! This tutorial is for ones without warranty. Take a look at this picture :
http://www.twitpic.com/1cymw5
Remove the screw's shown above..
Next Locate the below chip.
www.twitpic.com/1cynw4
This chip is the main cause for the screen problem. This chip wen taken out has 2 connectors beneath it . These connectors wen gone loose causes the screen problem. It will take a few hours to just get them in place. ( HTC need to improve in build design)
www.twitpic.com/1cymhp . ( 2 connectors ) take out all the stickers if you want. Less annoying ..
Press it with your thumb (HARD) to ensure that they are in place. You can hear the click sound if you switch off your “Room” fan. Once this is done , put the battery without replacing the rest of the parts . ( All connections connected ) .. Try to turn it ON. If it doesnt , try again . Again it doesn't turn on then try again. Keep on trying. I'm sure that you'll get it working. IF it does turn on , please post reply's.
NOTE : Make sure that you connected everything back ( Very IMP) . For those who cannot take the chip out , I recommend you to watch a youtube video on how to dissemble an HTC diamond.

RE:
No reply's? nobody tried this out?
I wish to try but with no pics it is hard to guess what chip to search for...

THANX TO TEAM XDA !
I was wondering what went wrong d day wen i rebooted my device.
I was screwed with an error message "microp error please update ur firmware"
googled a lot before ending up with team XDA.
came to know its a software problem, i cleared storage, updated a rom but nothing worked. finally i read xda instructions, i went to d nearest mobile store n explained everything. (since i dont have tools to disassemble my device at home) d service man did d job n i got my htc diamond working !
he just charged 100 rupees, htc service center wud have definitely asked much more than that !
thanks to xda ! but d lesson i learnt is "NEVER DROP/THROW UR HTC"
----------thank you----------

Hi Siddharthsai,
I have a screen problem but a bit more unique. The touch screen can work for a while if I leave it alone but after using the phone for a while, the screen does not work. If I were walk around with the phone, the screen will not work.
The buttons all can work and the phone can function for programs that can be controlled by the buttons. I am wondering if the problem is the same as yours in terms of connection problem.
Appreciate your advise on this.
Thanks.

Have you tried Hard reset? Hold down the volume key and press the reset key and power button . Backup your data using PIM backup before doing this... let me know if its coming again..waiting for your reply.
I have done the hard reset using the volume down/enter and reset button. I have reached the screen where I have to press on the cross hair and is stuck here as the touch panel is not able to click on the exact spot as it is always clicking to the bottom left. The same thing happened when I tried hard reset using "clear all data and format" but have to wait for a while until the screen can work.
After that the screen problem came back again. Any other suggestions?
Thanks.
@ above
Sorry for the late reply. had some work.
Is you battery low? just turn off your device and charge until its full . this happens mostly when you use duplicate charger . try charging with htc original charger ( borrow it from a frnd ) ...charge it fully and hard reset. Tell me if it works... by the way are you having an Indian version of diamond? ( 2G) ?
Let me know.
RE:
Flash it with a new ROM and if it still persists , then its a hardware prob. do you still have warranty ?
man you are the bomb. many thanks for this tutorial
@ above
Thanx buddy. its not just me , its everyone in XDA ...we all rock
Guess what! My problem is solved. Did a hard reset yesterday but was stuck at the cross hair allignment as the screen was not responding. Left the phone overnight and could complete the allignment the next morning. After rebooting, the touch screen was jammed again.
Try flicking the screen with my finger a few times and managed to move from page to page and after flicking many times, the touch screen recovered and has been OK for the past 10 hours.
Guess one of the solutions for those who have intermittent problem is to flick your screen top and bottom. Guess the pressure must have connected any loose joints. I am a happy guy today )

Thats good to hear... see ... if you try , you can..congrats.
I have a HTC Touch Pro 2 and I am getting the Microp error. The phone is not covered by warranty so looks like I may have to attempt to fix it myself.
I notice your tutorial deals with the Diamond - Any idea how to fix a Touch Pro 2?
@ above
Bro . Microp error comes because of the connectors. Since this is a slightly bulky , twice as big as diamond and has a slide out keypad , i suggest you to take it to a guy who knows to remove and fix things back.. ( not service center ) .. he'll charge you probably 200-300 bucks...just tell him to reassemble it back. Let me know...
Regards
HTC Touch HD microp error solved
I recently made an attempt to do the same to a Touch HD which showed the same Microp error and know what , its working... PM me for the tutorial
( cant post on the diamond forum )
Regards
I needed new screen, the easy part was taking apart but stuck on these 2 connectors well the bigger one, even when apart it does not seem to go together?

Center part of Screen Unresponsive

I was flashing a rom
Left RomManager on my phone a bit longer than normal, because i had to do some errands.
The battery was near to dying but i flashed CM7 nightly anyway
The battery didnt die in the flashing process but said 5% at the first launch
I plugged it into the charger and configured it.
I was on the 3rd or so screen when i noticed something strange, i couldnt click on certian parts of the screen.
I had to open the keyboard and use the D-Pad to push the next button.
Once i was on the stock adw launcher when my phone started acting bizarre.
It would move things around and open apps by its self.
Curious to see the pattern involved, i managed to get DevTools open and opened the "Pointer Location" section. It looked like the pointers where stuck on the middle of my screen.
I locked my Phone then unlocked it and it stopped. I noticed i was completely unable to select any center part of the screen
doing so would result on selecting the closest available pixel
I gathered some data by miving my finger in a single motion back and forth from top to bottom and these where the results [see pics]
Does anyone know how to fix this
also, i tried flashing different roms with no luch
Ive got the same issue with the left 3rd of my screen! any ideas on this? did you get it fixed somehow?

Try sbf back to stock, if it's still broken I'd try to get a new phone, I had a droid do this and the whole screen would only respond for the first minute when you turned it on, got it replaced for free because I was still under warranty

Interesting Display Problem about my Note 5

Hi dear XDA members,
I have some problem about my Note 5. I bought my phone 17 days ago. It is genuine. I was walking. And weather was sunny. I opened my phone and tried to call someone. Brightness was %100 (manual). I saw, Light Sensor worked (more Brightness). And Promixity Sensor worked too. Because, I was speaking with friend. I finished my call then I looked the screen:
What the….. Screen turned a green, purple, pink, black, gray, navy blue hue. I shocked and I got screenshot, then restarted Note 5. I check the screen when restarted. It was okay. I opened the screenshot for check it too. SS was ok too. This is my 1st problem. And i didn’t see this again.
Now, a 2nd problem in same day:
I’m using Swiftkey app with gray keyboard theme. I was chatting with friend. I called him (weather was sunny again) and turned back to keyboard.
What !? Gray keyboard turned a greenish hue. And I check my wallpaper (i was gray too). Its bottom lines turned a greenish hue too. Then I restarted phone and problem finished again.
Later, I called Customer Service Representative of Samsung. I explained all problem. She told me: “Format your phone. If problem isn’t finish, bring phone to service.”
Then, I formatted phone. Tested it many time. And there is no problem for 6-7 hours. BUT… I got the problem again. But I found some interesting tips to check the problem.
1. I checked *#0*# . And everyting is okay.
2. I opened my wallpaper in “Gallery” . And bring its top line to bottom line. So, gray was gray. But wallpaper’s bottom line was greenish on desktop. So, i think this isn’t Screen Panel problem. Looks like graphic bug. (Btw, notification bar's background was greenish too.)
3. I tried to active Light Sensor without “Calls” . And there is no problem about colors. Only in “Calls” . Looks like graphic bug with “Calls”
4. I didn’t restart my Note 5 when i got the problem again. I tried to lock off / lock on. And I saw: Screen turned to normal.
So, friends.. I think i will bring phone to service for research this problem. But I’m not sure. Problem looks like software bug. OR HARDWARE ? And maybe GPU problem ? (I didn't get problem in games, apps, etc.) I’m Confused…
Please help me. Must i go to service ? Or wait for new update etc.
P.S: My English isn’t so good i think. Thanks for understanding and helps.
Is my topic visible ? I'm new in forum.
Since this is a defect in their part, it should be covered under warranty. Just send it in, it is most likely a problem with the GPU or other component if even a format didn't fix it. If it was a software bug, the problem would be more widespread. It should be free of charge though because it isn't due to your use

Thanks for reply mate. I called customer service representative again. He told me: "If your phone is defective, we'll give you new Note 5 or you can take your money back. This is for new purchased phone (in 1 - 30 days)"
I will bring phone to service tomorrow. But I will be sad, if they tell me "it is software problem." I don't want to give my phone for nothing. But I don't have another way.
TY again.
Hi again mates !
I got the phone from service yesterday. They found nothing (very funny).
I spoke with employee :
* M = Me
* E = Employee
M: Did you open the phone's case for check the problem ?
E: No, I can't open the phone. This is risky.
M: So, How did you understand there is no problem ??
E: I think you used the phone as obsessively.
M: Wait. Did you tell me "obsession" ? I saw the problem with my eyes !
E: Mr. Cpt. Price, I mean: Don't care about it. Just use the phone. I used your phone for test. I saw nothing. You must take a video if you see problem. So, we can send it to SAMSUNG as proof.
M: You are very funny. I saw truth today. I saw Samsung's quality. Give me my phone.
So, guys I got the phone. And I'm using it with %98 brightness on a sunny day. So, there is no problem for now. I took that problem with %100 brightness on a sunny day. If i get that problem, I press lock off / on button. And problem is being finished.
I think I won't send it to service again. I won't spend my time for nothing. Sad but true: Apple is better than Samsung about satisfaction of service.
I will use the phone and if see a serious problem, i will go to service then.
I think that was a software problem or bug. What is your thought and advice ?
Regards...
Do you have any idea ?

Since you only brought the phone 17 days ago, may be you could to change a new one in your supplier?

They told me: We need to find a problem for change the phone. So, we can show proof to Samsung.
I don't know, how is Samsung services in other countries. But in my country: Samsung services are bad.
