I try to encrypt the phone, and that was about 90mins ago, and right now, I have the phone on the black screen with 3 dots, slightly larger red one and two while one revolving around the larger red one. I'm not familiar with this screen, and not sure it it's still encrypting or the phone is stuck and need reboot. In the past, with other phone/roms, normally it will come back to a back screen saying encrypting with percentage.

So in the middle of the day, I pulled my phone out of my pocket to check the time. I was faced with a black, backlit screen. It'd turn off and back on every 5 seconds or so. I pulled the battery, attempted to turn it on, but I was faced with the same black, backlit screen. It continued the cycle.
I tried powering it on in bootloader mode. This caused the backlight to stay on continuously, but again, nothing on the screen. No M logo, not even a faint hint of text.
Is this phone done for?
It may be possible that it is just the screen, however I do not have the phone to look at it. If you plug it in when it is powered on do you get a recognized device on windows/linux?
The wires connecting the LCD screen could also be loose. If you are at all tech savy you might try taking it apart and looking at it.
The Droid is an amazing phone, but it is getting outdated pretty fast. I still use the Moto Droid and have no problems.
Do you have the insurance with Asurion? if so you can send it in and they charge like $50 to replace the phone.

I would contact the manufacturer/carrier if there is still a warranty. If not, I would still contact to see if there is anything they can recommend, or if they will fix it for a minimal fee. Otherwise, look up how to take apart your milestone/droid on these forums and check for a loose connection or something. If all else fails, you may be able to buy a replacement screen. Those are the steps I would follow, but contact motorola/carrier first no matter what.
Good luck.
Hi All,
Actually I bought a new Note-GTN7000 but later after four day's I've noticed that there is a tiny green dot appearing on the not exactly but middle of the OLED. It is not a dead pixel as it appears on a dark background only like when we go to the settings menu(Dark Background) & it disappears when I switch of my handset.
Could be a pixel stuck.
Q!: Is there a way to take it off.
Q2: Tried different apps like JscreenFix and pixel fixer for about an hour or two continuously but didn't work out.
Any other possible way from any body???
Please help.
I once had a stuck pixel on tytn 2 and this is what I did:
Hold your finger or "closed" pen on a pixel(so you'll know where it is)
Turn off your screen
Press the spot on the screen very hard
Turn on the screen
This procedure helped me to "unstuck" the pixel. I cant guarantee that it will work om amoled but I think it is worth to try
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Pushing the spot hard and Switching the display on, Heating up the screen works for LCD Screens. Not LED.
Don't try these silly steps posted everywhere, You might end up permanently damaging your screen.
The only solution to this is, Stop looking at it. I have a stuck pixel on lower left corner as well. They don't spread nor hurt anything. In fact its so tiny that You wont notice it until you continuously focus your eyes on it. In a couple of days you will forget that It's their.
For LCD Monitors back in the days - Samsung only replaced Monitors with new ones if "only" they had Five or more dead pixels. If you have one , or two you're stuck with that for good. #yearsago
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.
Well, I woke up this morning to find that my phone had been stuck on the Google boot logo for at least a few hours. I cursed to myself because I already knew it was going to be burned. I booted my phone and as soon as it got to the MultiROM boot screen, man did I feel it. There was a big fat "Google" right in the middle of the screen. I've had an app I found on the Play Store running for ~8 hours, filling the screen with colors flashing back and forth. It's gotten better and I can't notice it anywhere but the MultiROM boot screen anymore (I tested it with multiple burn-in test apps). I guess it's okay but the the concept of a very expensive phone being burned like that kills me inside. One request, can someone get me an exact image of what the screen looks like when it's turning on so I can invert the colors and hopefully get it gone all the way?
I had some burn in that was bad a while back and this app
Display Tester fixed it up well. I used the burn in fix method with the black and white stripes.
I take extremely good care of my phone and one day, this thin white line horizontally ran across the screen. It bothered me but all the touch functions and screen sensitivity were in tact so I left it for a few days. When I would turn it on the bottom half of the screen would be white but I could get it to go away by touching the top half and I could touch anything under the white block too. But now I can't even do that, it does some weird flash and won't let me look at my phone at all. When the white line appeared at first I did a factory reset etc. But it didn't help. I don't know what happened to it, the screen doesn't have one crack or scratch either. So my question is what the heck is wrong with it? and if I were to replace what is wrong what would that be (screen, lcd, touch digitizer) or something I didn't list? please help!!
