screen broken? - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, from last night to this morning my N1 started having problems with the screen, it didnt have any fall or anything.
The screen doesnt work for most of the times.. Some times when i wake it up it works for a few mins and then goes black. It looks like a bad contact on the screen conectors or something like that. The touch screen works fine, i can unlock the phone when the screen is not working by sliding.
I got the phone back a few weeks ago from the repair service for a rigid-flex repair, so maybe they missed a screw or something.
Anyone had same problem or knows what may be happening?
Thanks!
Running CM7 nightly but i guess it doesnt matter.

well, now the screen works if i press it hard in the middle of the screen, if i release it goes black.

HTC touch diamond water damage

Hi everyone!
Sad thing happend with me, 4 days ago i fell into a river and sadly ma diamond was in the pocket. I dryed it for three days, turned it on, everthing else works, besides the screen light. So i dissambeled the phone to bits and pieces, only i didn't took the LCD out(read it from somewhere that you can't put it back on afterwards so it will work). I reassambeled it and still same situation. If you look it from a angel you can see the icons and even touchscreen works. Only problem is still the backlight. So is there something i can do to make the backlight work again or i have to buy a new screen and is it hard to swap the screen ?
Hi,
Not sure if you will need to replace the screen, if you can get to the power settings you can see if the backlight has been manually turned down. If this fails and a screen replacement is required i will tell you how easy/difficult it is once i have replaced mine, due to unfortunate circumstances.
yeah, i got into the power settings, everthing is okey there like it should be , so i have to change the screen. Is there some kind on intrcutions for changing it? it would help me a lot

Broken Screen or?

About a month ago I got my Kaiser screen replaced as it was broken, now all of a sudden the screen is all whitish and I can hardly ready whats on it!
Is the screen broken again??
I'm fixing to replace the screen in a Kaiser i bought used with a broken screen. From the reading i've done, it sounds like one of the cables to the screen is loose. Trying pressing on the middle of your keyboard and see if anything happens. The big ribbon cable has a connector there.
hmmmm coming to think of it when I pressed the middle of the screen it used to do some funny effect (like when you press your TFT monitor) but now nothing happens!
Is your screen something like this?

last night i was woken up by a text, i looked at my phone and all of a sudden the screen went crazy. Started scrolling up and down (like a bad signal/wrong format ntsc/pal on a tv). Everything got all messed up and lines and dashes all over, kinda like your screen, it started acting wierder when i began applying pressure on the top of the device by the earpiece and d-pad. So i soft-reset the device and it was still doing it while boot up, leading me to believe it wasn't a software issue.
So in my half awake state i just left it on my nightstand. I woke up and its perfectly fine now, even when i press all around the screen.. wierd huh?
I didn't notice anything like you descriped, touch screen and everything else worked like before. Only the colors were like on the picture. Tried hard reseting but didn't help. Phone is still under warranty so sent it to be repaired, i can post what they did when i get it back.
Thanks jrask. Thats exactly how it looks.
I think i have some bad news for you, the screen was damaged and needed to be replaced. I think it was cracked under the frame.

[PROBLEM] Died?

Hey guys, I was wondering if somebody would be able to maybe help me diagnose the fault\problem part with my non-working diamond...
Basically I went to a club one night and the place was unbelievably steamy / humid. My phone was working one minute and then the next it wouldnt display anything on the LCD. The backlight was working however.
Since then I havent been able to get an image on the screen although when trying to turn it on, it seems to go through its startup sequence (backlight -> vibration -> beep (i think))
I havent had any power to the phone since a day after it broke (a few weeks ago).
I'd like to get it back working again but dont know exactly what part i would need to replace. I'm fairly competent with electronics .
Any help/advite would be appreciated!
Haha, ok that's odd...
I've plugged it into my pc to get some data files off about an hour ago.. forgot about it and just looked at it now and the screen is displaying!
It is displaying and accepting input although it was flickering at first (like pixel shifting). but i pressed the power button to standby the screen and pressed it again and the display is fine with no flickering ?
Ive moved the phone about and shook it quite hard to see if there's any loose connection but the display still seems fine..
Anybody have any ideas as to what it may be?
I'm not going to deem it as fixed until I know what the problem was/is lol
cheers guys
Ok screen actually keeps flickering nonstop, and sometimes 'fades away' to gray/white/black
comes back after a few seconds though
Looks like a faulty connector?

G1 screen suddenly has dead spot. Do I need a new screen?

Apart from some sound issues that were resolved, my G1 was working perfectly until now. I installed some apps then turned off the phone. A while later, I come back to the phone and turn it on but now the upper half of the touch screen won't respond. It was working fine just 30 minutes ago! What can I do? Do I have to get a new screen for it?

[Q] LG P990 Touch screen stops working until reboot

Hi everyone, I was hoping I could get some help with my LG P990 (Optimus 2x), I recently changed the screen and digitizer (it was broken so I replaced it myself with a new original one).
The thing is that since then sometimes the digitizer just stops working. The screen works, the buttons (screen lock and volume up and down) works, but the touch screen is dead. Obviously I can't reboot the phone so I take off the battery and put it back, the phone shuts down, reiniciates and there it goes, everything is good again, working perfectly... until it stops and the whole thing goes like this over and over...
Any clues of what might be causing this? I think it should be something software related since the digitizer works PERFECTLY until it kinda freezes... but I'm not sure, really not a smartphone guy so...
Thanks a lot!
P.S.: Tried to use the developer tools > locate pointer function and touched everything everywhere accross the screen and it's fully working, no dead zones, so the problem is "random" i mean it just stops working randomly, and I also didn't notice any patterns like "it freezes when i'm doing something specifically" it's totally random, happened when receiving a call, when making a call, while playing a game, while just browsing through the menu, while trying to unlock the screen... at least APPARENTLY random, maybe something i didn't notice if I do, i'll add later...
