Hello
My screen cracked so I ordered a new on ebay. However after I have put the phone back in its shell the top part gets pretty hot. I opened it and started it without the aluminum shell to test and there were no heat? Anyone know what it might be?
Thanks In advance!
That isn't likely to be the screen. My phone gets warm too. About 4 days ago out of nowhere I noticed the upper part of the screen feeling warm, it turns out my phone had stopped sleeping properly and Google services had resumed chomping on my battery when the screen was off.
Tho when i don't keep it in the aluminium case it's not warm at all, turned on and I have logged on my simcard/wifi. I have left it on outside of the case for 1 hour and it don't get warm at all. However in the case it gets super hot as soon as it boots and then after 15-25m it turns off probably because it's too hot
Happened the same last night with me.
Put a download and slept, and in the morning it was all drained of battery and it showed that it shut down after minutes after I slept with 90%battery.
It was weird. Had to keep pressing power button for 40 sec approx for the phone to turn on.
It's working fine now though
did anyone of you even read my post? I said after a screenreplacement. It didn't just happened randomly. however i fixed it. I removed the camera and the earspeaker and reinstalled them used some alcohol on the contact points on the case and the earspeaker and it seemed to fix it if anyone has this problem later down the road
Hi jullleee, I have the same problem as u after I replaced the screen. The phone getting too hot on the top (one plus 3). On charge it becomes more hot and faster on very high temperature than without charging. Also the battery dont charge . Why did u reconnect the ear speaker and the camera ? Thank you in advance

For anyone coming across this thread I just had the same problem when replacing my Oneplus 3 screen. It seemed to work, and I plugged it in, but it said "battery too low charge for a while", then I got the 0% and seemed to charge and then restart, and then be back at 0% and be stuck in this boot / charging loop. My battery had died hard when my screen died so I thought maybe it just needed to charge for a while, but the top half of the phone got very hot.
So I took it apart again and it turns out the issue for me was with the top ribbon cables that cross the battery. Where they connect to the main board was very tight and it was difficult to get both of them in place properly. Usually they kind of overlapped and one stuck up slightly. It was fixing their placement before bolting down their cover that fixed this issue for me.
Edit: Never mind. Still searching for my issue. Taking the back case off will let it work normally but whenever i snap it on it goes back into this charging loop, I still suspect it's an issue with these two cables and the case is putting pressure in the wrong spot or something but I'm not really sure yet.
I had the same problem, the issue was the fact that i plugged the ribbon cable the other way around.

I have an hd7 tmous, and this problem has persisted on the original rom, and the official nodo, both locked and unlocked. Phone will work fine, run it all day, then while I'm at work, phone in my back pocket, it won't wake up with any button, and I have to pull the battery. Only when its in my back pocket. Sometimes takes 5 minutes, sometimes a few hours. Front pocket takes more time. Any ideas? I thought about trying another radio. I have search xda and the net and can't find a solution. Got it used and have no warranty. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Also, on my days off, and the phone never goes in my pocket, no freezing. How odd. Sometimes its really warm, almost hot.....
I've had a similar problem but only when its been on charge a few hours. the lil green battery light stays lit but the phone wont respond unless I do a battery pull
Hmmm. Now that you mention it, every time it has done it, it was about 80+ % charged. Never done it on half charge. The green led that you mentioned doesn't behave as you said, but you gave me an idea- battery maybe? Gets hot, only does it when mostly charged, it makes sense.
I recreated the problem. Putting a fair amount of pressure on the bottom of the phone, just below the battery cover causes the screen to dim, keeps dimming, then the phone is off. Seems like a short. Gonna take it apart when I get home. Fun times, lmao.
SOLVED
I was right, it was a short. After a little process of elimination, I narrowed it down to the protector shield/heat sink that the SIM card/sd card cluster rest on. I pushed on the SIM card bracket, and it dies. I unplugged the cluster, left it on, same result. Removed the cluster and the shield it is stuck to (by adhesive), and it didn't die. Increased the pressure until my screen made funny colors, still didn't die. There is a heat sink pad and some amber "tape" that are on the underside of the shield, centralized around the CPU. The area I pressed on was on the opposite side of the cluster though. And, oddly, there was no protective amber "tape" on that area. I cut a piece of clear packing tape, made it just the right size to cover the area, and not overlap the amber side. I put the shield back together and the problem is gone. Turns out that when my phone was in my back pocket and I bent down for something, it would put pressure on the bottom of my phone and short it out. Considering the area of the short, I feel very lucky that my phone is still kicking. I am posting this to help anyone who might have a similar problem. I hope this helps. Easy to take apart, unlike the hd2
Thanks, xda, for without you and your awesome gathering of people, i would be lost...... And bored.
i had replaced the digitizer on my vivid recently and now it would shut down randomly and even when i turn it on it would stay on for 10 second to 2 minutes and would shut down and this cycle continues until the phone "decides" to stay on. This only happens when the phone is not charging, when the phone is charging it never shuts down. Sometimes the percentage of the battery will jump for example: it could be at 60% then it shut down and when i turn it back on it would be at like 40% and it would shut down and when i turn it on again it would jump to like 56%.
Thanks in advance for any help
edit: when i had to take the digitizer from the screen i destroyed the tape sticking them together, im just sticking them together now with normal tape i had order adhesive strip to fix that. I also forgot to take the plastic off from the digitizer side that goes infront of the lcd screen. i dont think any apps is causing this.. i use to think battery is problem but now think otherwise..it doesnt shut down when my sim isn't inside.. only testing this now not 100% sure
edit:everything seem to working except for flash photography without the sim card. also when making phone call the screen keep going dark maybe a sensor is covered
I believe my phone just overheated while charging causing the whole left hand side of the screen to become distorted and its hard to explain but it was very hazy over the whole left hand side of the screen (it has been getting better over the last hour)
After i noticed and immediately turned the phone off , left it for a few minutes then turned it back on to see the whole left hand side of the screen was hazy like bad reception on a vcr or something lol to the point where it was unusable and was starting to give me a headache, i noticed its slowly gotten better and as of writing this its only just seeable, still really annoying for a brand new phone to be doing this
I was using the new CM10.1 at the time (I don't want to say its related) and before this happened i noticed the phone was running hotter than it did on euro 4.1.2, also even while on ac charge, my general- lite usage seem to be stopping the phone from charging(like 2% in half an hour) this may have been dropping charging voltage to counter the heat?
It was also charging from ac with some dodgy international adaptor the supplier sent me, i doubt this caused it though as it has been fine the last two weeks.
To my amazement the screen has returned to normal, i wish i had got some screen shots but was in to much of a panic lol. From now on ill only be charging it in a usb port, will never charge this phone via ac again. Im a bit disapointed in LG for this overheating issue, as it seems every optimus 4x hd user is having issues, please be careful with how hot you let yours get!!!
This is a fault, my screen gets very hot while gaming but display remains crystal clear.

Can someone tell me what this flex cable is connecting?
My phone would sometimes spontanously freeze and switch off, showing the 3 red leds and just stops responding. It won't even take a charge. Usually the battery is at 60% when the phone dies, and sometimes it shows a constant RED led.
The back cover is loose (but has enough adhesive to actually stick reasonably, takes little force to open it up), so I pressed that connector with medium force. The next thing that happened, is that the phone responded to the charger, booted to the "charging state", where it shows the battery state and so on (which it shows it's approx on 60%.
Or could it be that I press something else, which causes my phone to work properly again?

Thanks/Hvala!
But do you know what could be faulty on this specific point, which causes my phone to not charge? Can I find somewhere a complete guide to the disassembly and identification of all parts? It would make it alot easier for me . My phone is running again, going strong at 65% and still discharging for the last 3 hours. I'm logging the microVolts, temperature and other stats from the battery to see if it's the battery causing the malfunction, which I doubt.
Anyway, there should be something. By the way, prior to the issues, my phone dropped flat on the screen on tiles, about 1 meter high. So most likely, there is something loose/messed up. But I don't know what causes the entire system to flash the LED 3 times, saying that the battery is drained, yet after pressing on this point, immediately start up while on the charger.

Please PM me. (you speak croatian?)
Hi everyone, yesterday I used NeMa's battery calibration to reset the batterystats on my Xperia Z3 Compact running the latest Cyanogenmod. I had done it when the phone was charged at 100% and noticed that the battery instantly dipped to 99% afterwards. I took note but I wasn't worried at the time. Last night I left the phone on its charging dock and slept for about 5 hours and 30 minutes. When I woke up I picked up the phone and noticed it was hot. The screen was fine at the time so I checked the battery percentage, saying it was stuck at 99% which leaves me to believe that the battery was stuck in a charging loop from a bad calibration. I texted someone and also noticed that the Swype keyboard was laggy and unresponsive, but with my lock password, etc. it seemed to be fine.
I powered the phone down and slowly tried to dissipate heat with warm water and later colder water. When I tried to power the phone on, it had shown normal booting until the end when the screen gave out. Currently, it will show normal LED lights up top and calls will still register, but the screen is dark and doesn't seem to have promising digitizer input because I can't answer the call even though I know where to touch the screen to answer it.
Has this happened to anyone? This is my first encounter dealing with this. Any fixes (screen response or proper calibration), or would I just have to get it repaired?
Hello, check this things out
only 2 ways to find out if the screen is working or not working at all
a) a very dark place... start the phone.. maybe the screen is not iluminted proprey ! and maybe the screen is visible ...but very limited.
b) buy a mhl to hdmi cable.. to connect from phone to a smartv.
And see if the touch respons.. if yes the only the screen i out.. if not the screen +touch is out ( dead)
Yeah the screen and digitizer are fried. I'm going to try and return it to the seller stating a defective battery. Has this happened to anyone else? I just need to know if there are any fixes to this if I were to get the same phone.

Poor seller, you blew up your phone with bad software and water and you want someone else to pay for it.
