I recently installed the CM7 Beta1 with tablet tweaks and everything has been running fine. When I took the ADAM out of the case I have, I noticed it was very hot. I tried to turn it on (it was in sleep mode) and it when into a NotionInk logo /black screen boot loop. I reset using the opening on the bottom and it booted up fine. It took several minutes of use before the device was cool again. I don't know if this is related to the rom but I know it was not ambient heat in the case, the device was generating the heat.
This may help identify source of heat- the part that was the warmest was the right side of the device ( looking at it in landscape). Also to note the heat caused screen in that area to look blotchy/discolored when on a black background. I have the PixelQi Wifi model.
Anyone have similar issues?

Hello,
I'm facing the following situation:
I droped my Trinity and the LCD broke on the left side pretty bad. It booted fine after that (the LCD was still visible on the right side) but after 10-15 seconds it just froze. The hardware buttons were not working, nor the touch commands. I could only rest the phone with the stylus.
I successfully replaced the LCD by myself and now I'm stuck with the freeze. I was hoping the freeze will disappear but I have the same symptoms as before.
I tried a hard-reset but after that the phone froze during the booting process with the logo on the screen.
I entered the bootloader and connected the phone to the PC. It worked just fine and the freeze didn't occur anymore. I uploaded a new ROM but again, during the booting process I got the goddamn freeze.
I was hoping that everything beside the LCD survived the crash but I'm starting to have second thoughts.
I would appreciate any advice or hints on how to find what could cause my problem.
Thanks
If its freezing up on you then I would imagine you've caused some hardware damage.
Like you, I would have hoped that replacing the broken LCD woudl fix it, but there's nothing to say you havent partially damaged or dislodged something else, especially if it was a high-impact drop...
PS
I wouldnt try doing any more uploads to it either if I were you. If it freezes up during one of those then you could end up trashing the program area of your device too!...
Hi guys,
I had quite the same problem, without braking the lcd but anyway it fellt from a airplane onboarding bridge :-( and then it has started to randomly freeze.
I think I may have found something. I've noticed that when I press strongly the battery it's not freezing anymore!
I've opened the phone and saw that under the little metalic protection's plate there were a contact plate between a little black component and this metallic protection'splate. I've cleaned it, apply some thermal past (like cooling artic) and the I've put a little sheet of paper between the plastic frame and the metallic protection's plate. I've all remounted.. And surprise!!! not one freeze since two day!!
I hope it will last.. but if yes this s F### great
ähm.. I release any kind of responsabilities concerning this action. I'm not a professional but as soon as it has work for me I wanted to share it ;-)
Seeeervus!!
Dodjob.
Hello all,
I've recently purchased my first android device and wow is it cool. I've installed several different ROM's on it (CM7 253, Cm7.1, CM9, Cm7.2). What I've noticed is that the bottom has some issues that may hardware issues.
When I'm in a draw program I cannot draw fluidly near the bottom near the N button. Also when I use the pointer control utility in settings (forgot the name) it is nice an fluid for all of the screen EXCEPT on the side where the N button is. It will seems to get sporadic and will make contact, and not and I'll get dots and dashes instead of a nice fluid line. The soft buttons work fine but require more of a firm push when position in portrait mode.
I'm thinking hardware? This is on a refurbished nook BTW.
I can't get to the device as it's under the tree (for my wife).
Can someone test this and tell me if yours can create a fluid line drawing near the edge where the N button is?
Thanks,
Zack
I bought 9 NCs as christmas presents this year, I had to return 3 of the due to hardware problems (Thankfully I tested all of them the day I got them).
One of the ones I returned had poor touch sensitivity on the bottom of the screen which got progressively worse over a few minutes of use. I had to retype several letters when I was putting in the wifi password then it went into standby and I couldn't unlock the lock screen because it wasn't detecting my swipe. It would just jiggle a little. By the time I took it to B&N it wouldn't even jiggle. You'll have to send it back to a place in Reno but going into B&N will save you some time on the phone.
The other 2 had busted wifi (no signal even in B&N) and a sticky power button (every couple of times you tapped it it would stick and turn the device off). There's also a few with blue tinted screens but I didn't want to return those and play refurb roulette again.
Oh, and I just did some drawing in canvas (the notion ink app) and other than having difficulty drawing a straight line my nook works just fine along all the edges.
Wife got the tablet today and loves it. I was just mucking around with it and found the nook screen recalibrator and that seemed to completely solve my problem! Whatever isin that magic potion is great.
yeah, there can sometimes me issues with the digitizer that are almost universally fixed by screen recalibration.
So i've had my Nexus 4 for just over 2 years now. It's stuck by me through thick and thin, i think this might be the end though.
Anyway, so i picked the phone up at around 2 am this morning, it had been working perfectly all day up to this point. So i picked it up, the colours on the screen are a bit weird. I change what's on the screen and the colours remain weird, so i do the standard thing of a reboot to see if that clears it up. This is where the big issue comes in, when the phone turns on again, there's a 1 cm wide black bar on the left side of the screen. Nothing appears to affect it, but sometimes it randomly appears greyer than others.
The rest of the screen has the same weird colours as it did before i restarted, kind of muted, and moving light areas on the screen (like app icons) makes bars of lighter colour move across the screen with them.
If i didn't know that the phone hadn't been dropped i'd be saying that the screen was just broken right now. But i flashed CM12 (was on the latest PA beta) and when the phone was restarting the whole screen flashed working for a split second before going to its broken state again. This hints at the issue being software related, especially given that it initially happened with no physical damage occurring to the phone? When thinking about this, the colour issue reminds me of what happens when you installed CM11 with the wrong kernel and it looks messed up...
Anyway, I think my phone is dead, and i'm posting here in case someone has some genius idea as to what on earth killed my phone.
I'm pretty good at doing stuff with the phone, so can flash and install whatever, hindered only slightly by missing 1 cm of the recovery menu. I would take pictures, but normally i use my phone as a camera and...... If any more info would be useful then please ask!
Thanks for any help, ideas or input in advance!

7 days ago I have purchased this new note 3 N900 , the screen today is acting in a weird manner.
Here is what happened, I switched on the phone and then there was only the wallpaper and a dark triangle on the right side of the screen, I rotated screens but the thing remained the same, that is only the background with a dark triangle on the right side of the screen with a little flicker so I had to restart the phone.
Now it's working fine, please suggest should I get this phone replaced, is this some kind of hardware issue.
Also I had purchased a cover for the phone which was actually very hard to remove and I applied a lot of strength on the right side of the screen to get the cover removed, can that have caused the problem.
Also is there any app which I can use to check is there is a problem with the screen or not.
Thank you for your time, please give your valuable suggestion.
I'm running stock android 5.0 the same software that came out of the box.
The screen roughly looked like the image attached below -
Forgot to mention above that earlier I also had this issue where the all apps button on main screen turned to blue while everything was working fine and won't change to normal so I had to restart the phone again in that situation which did fixed that problem.
Would it be possible for someone to clarify that is this some kind of problem cause due to applying excess pressure as the Urban Armor Case I have purchases was really really hard to remove so I had to apply a lot of strength on the right side of the screen, it was so hard to remove that even the official back cover came off with it, can that have caused the issue or is it just a software problem.

Hello all.
First of all, sorry for my English. After few years of good perfomance, the LG G2 D802 with stock mod started to perfom slowly like a film in slow motion, e.g.. it takes a second to show each character in the screen that i am writing now. In addition, when the display turns locked it is impossible to unlock it without reseting the device.
I tried with a hard reset but the problem didn't solved. The superuser android test for the proximity sensor passed ok (I think). Have you seen this before? Can anybody help me with this?.
Edit. The poperty high temperature off enabled maybe let it run a bit faster but still with long delay. A few times the device starts to work as fast as it was new but this situation is for a little while, an incoming call or similar returns the device to the "lag" mode.
It is amazing, now the phone runs like the first time, seems unbelievable it runs better than ever, after battery charge but I havent done anything special ... So at this point it is a hardware or a software issue?
Android version: 4.4.2.
Kernel: 3.4.0
Soft. D80220h-EUR-XX
Conpilation KOT49I.D80220h
UPDATE: Problem returns as I expected. So I have open the cover and check connections, all seems ok but I left a small piece of paper above the proximity sensor just in case, it dint work.
Ocasionally the screen performs a kind of flickering, e.g for a few seconds I can see the top half of the screen just in the bottom half of the screen... any idea for next step? nobody is using LG G2?.
UPDATE : I have Flashed stock rom lollypop 5.0.2. And it seems that now the unlock problem is solved, but the lag remains,it is crazy, two seconds from push letter until it appears on the screen...
Maybe it seems a hardware issue, now I am considering this steps:
1) Flash kk again 4.4.2 and hard reset. Just in case, but no hope that it works.
2) if it is a hardware issue, it can be a problem with flex cable or display or digitizer or proximity sensor or motherboard or other I don't know or a mix.
3) Hit the mobile against the wall
At this point, Did anybody deal with something similar?
