[Q] Has anyone seen this screen issue? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So earlier today I my phone's screen would not wake up, after a few minutes of button presses and what not it finally comes on, but it has an off look to it. The blacks are all a washed out grey, there are vertical lines across the screen and there's just an odd white wash across the screen. The lines are stationary and do not move with scrolling. Unfortunately I do not have enough posts to link the image directly http ://i.imgur.com/ KfLWfAV.jpg
I have tried some restarts, I flashed stock but neither did anything. I have no idea what could have caused this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

washed out screen

Hello,
I have the htc 8925. a couple of weeks ago, my screen turned whitish blue. it completely washed out... i did a soft reset and it came back to normal. however a couple of days later, it happened again... i took out the battery, let it rest, and all was fine... but the white screen came back.
this is my problem. if the white screen were permanently there, i would have no issues with buying another screen. but it seems as though this is a "connector" issue and not my screen. sometimes, i just tap the screen and it turns white, i tap it again and it goes back to normal.
i have browsed through all of Mike Channon's posts and his website, i have dismantled my phone twice. everything seemed secure.... what would help me is if anyone knew exactly where the connector issue for the white screen on the kaiser where coming from.
i would appreciate all responses from anyone, expert or not. i dont want to buy a new screen because it seems as though my screen is fine, but just placed wrongly.
thanks again

i just noticed also that when i apply pressure to the lower right corner of the screen, the white screen goes away, but when i let go, it comes back... just wanted to add that
Had the same thing happen to a Tilt I bought from AT&T on the second day. Not sure what was wrong with it but they just sent me a new one. From my reading it seems to have something to do with the flexible video cable.

Does anyone else have an unresponsive touch screen?

I first noticed this on a running game where you have to hold down either the left or right side of the screen to move in that direction. It would usually register the first press, but not that I had held my finger down so I wasnt moving properly. I thought this was due to the game it's self rather than my phone.
I've just downloaded Naugh where you have to rotate the screen by touching either side of the phone, and again the same issue. It's really unresponsive - It will recognise the tap but not that i've held it, it will stop working. Occasionaly this will also happen when scrolling a page.
I did a quick google search and found that the Z1 had this issue, but havent found a fix.
Has anyone else experienced this? Or if not, any suggestions on figuring out whats wrong?
Edit: I recorded a video of exactly what I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UW2gCWpThWc
I don't know if my problem with my screen is related to yours, but i'm experiencing some problems as well.
On the picture i attached in this post is a picture taken of my screen with a black background.
In the middle of the screen there is a slight discolouring, and in this particular spot the touch screen is very unresponsive, i'm especially noticing this when playing candy crush, making it almost impossible to swap the two candies in this particular spot
Both of these sound a bit like my problem was at first, but mine quickly got worse (in hours) and then I found the hairline crack in the screen.
Bottom corner and not in a part of the screen that displays anything - just the 'glass' front at the bottom - but a third of the screen near the middle doesn't respond to touch.
It gradually got worse over a couple of hours until it stopped responding altogether.

Split screen?

I'm randomly getting a split screen, half of the screen turns upside down, half stays right side up. Screenshots do not show it however. I have to turn off the screen for it to go away. Happens periodically after several minutes of use. Any thoughts?
looks a bit like a slot machine yes? I have a vertical split where the the image is not flipped, but it does scroll up/wrap around the screen so that the notification bar is somewhere in the bottom half of the screen and the bottom of the image is wrapped around to the top.
I only really get it on custom kernels, I reported it to the maker of Elite and he said from what he has heard its a hardware issue and the only fix would be to RMA. Haven't done that yet as it fairly occasional, but plan to soonish.
kinda sucky how we are getting screen issues on this phone, i also have a screen issue with vertical gradient line appearing on some material themes.
sadly i cant RMA it. if i could i would have, i have ordered it all the way from the Middle east. :/ i will stick to the phone for a while longer as i love it.. and hoping that the line somehow dissappears by its own.

The Hardest Problem: Home screen glitch-only

Hey guys!
So I'll put a video of my cellphone and how the problem looks like right below.
Last week I installed a few apps from Play Store for studying and after a while the phone screen started to behave with a glitch: It started to flash some vertical lines and sometimes parts of the screen are placed in other places. If I touch the screen where an icon used to be but due to the glitch it is in another place of the screen the app opens normally. Like this glitch is more about an illusion. Sometimes the whole screen can go black or white and then it turns off. Sometimes the colour scheme is inverted. (In the video you can see itbetter)
When I try to turn on the screen again by pushing the Power Button the screen can blink quickly so I can't unlock it.
I saw a lot of things on internet but actually nothing really helped me. I suspected that it was a kind of virus but I changed the ROM 3 times (flashing Android 6.0 Marshmallow, Android 5.0 Lollipop and Android 4.4 KitKat) and the problem still haunts me. When I'm setting the cellphone up the screen is OK and everytime I can open an app this glitch stops. (As you can see in the video) But when I go to the home screen this glitch starts immediatly.
I've heard that it has to do with the battery or it is a hardware problem. But I don't know why this problem only happens in the home screen. On fastboot screen the screen is OK too.
I'm trying this forum really hoping that someone appears with the solution. Thank you so much!

Screen problem?

Hi people,
Can anyone help me, I'm going crazy!
Right I have a note 8 a few weeks old. Never been dropped etc. I put a black background(no pictures etc, just pure black) on my home screen. When I turn my screen brightness up to full, and look at my screen in the dark, the top of the screen looks faded(Browny yellow instead of black). I sent it in to samsung and they said there isn't a problem, but their obviously is! Could anyone please try this on their device for me? Just put 'black image' into Google images and you will find loads of black images to try it with. Thanks in advance (has to be viewed in a dark room, because it's not noticeable in light and the screen brightness has to be full). Thanks in advance.
