Thanks so much!

If it is still under warranty I would restore to stock and ask for a replacement.

I assume you've tried to press it back in place? Mine did that, and all it needed was to be snapped back.
I have seen some nooks that suffered heat damage similiar to this. The cover may, as was posted, snap back into place. As replacement is not an option for you, you might look at the ifixit app. There is a teardown of the nook showing the correct way to remove the rear cover and reinstall. This might work for you. Just sayin......

Like when you press down on your LCD computer monitor too hard and you can see rainbow like colors under your fingers. I tried to take a picture as best as I could. The phone has never been dropped and I've left it shut off for about a month since I got the Bionic.

What could be causing this??
Here's a video link to explain even further what I mean

Mine did that after I dropped it off a 15 ft scaffolding onto concrete... luckily that's all mine did... 6 months later I got it wet (didn't get the wet sticker wet) and it bootlooped, wouldn't even go into stock recovery, so Verizon luckily replaced it (I was 2 days before my 1 year warranty ran out thank God) oh by the way I was stock unrooted, never sbf'ed or anything until I got my replacement phone

My friends was doing this same thing... the Verizon Rep told him that it had to do with the extended battery being too big and pushing on the components inside the phone against the screen... he demonstrated by taking the battery door off and pushing on the battery itself and causing the same "rainbow " effect as when he touched the screen... long story short they are sending him a new phone

So this weekend I replaced the back cover of my Nexus 4 since it was broken, since replacing it i've noticed that my wifi signal has been extremely weak. I noticed that the replacement back cover did not have this black film/tape on it. Could this be whats effecting it or could it be something else?
Ok it was definitely the back glass replacement, I put the old cover back on and now my wifi issues are no longer. I guess its safe to assume the issue was the missing metallic on the inside of the new cover. Mods can close this if they would like.
Why close the thread? The info could be useful for other people. Are you able to take the required bits from the old cover to the new one or did you get a defective cover?

Your right I didn't think about that, i'm sorry. As far as the required bits, I don't think they can be removed and put on the other cover. I contacted the seller and told them i'd like to return due to the fact it was missing the bits. I've found another and will let everyone know how it works. Also in a little bit i'll post some pictures of what i'm talking about.
Ok so here's a picture of what i'm talking about, sorry about having to use ms paint but this is what i'm talking about. I've lableled the back covers accordingly

Hi guys,
So the back letters of my Galaxy S4 are falling off (see picture below). Now that's not the end of the world, but it might affect the sale price. It makes the phone look like a (ever more) cheap piece of plastic. I want to sell it when I'm buying the Nexus 6.
Any suggestions? How much will this cost me to let Samsung make this? Or do I need a completely new back-cover? Also, does anyone else have this issue?
Here is the picture. Excuse me for the worst quality ever, normally I use my phone to take pictures, which was not possible obviously (could've taken the back cover off now I think about it).

Get a cheap original looking new cover for $3-4.

Hi all!
I have a galaxy s4 i9505, and till yesterday everything was working perfectly. Yesterday before i went to sleep i put my phone on the table. Today when i woke up i wanted to call someone and than i saw that there is a small line on my phone's screen. I peeled off the screen protector ( i thought it was from that ), but the line stayed there. It' internal. When i put my finger there, i dont feel any scratch or anything different. By now the "line" got bigger.. The screen works perfectly..

What is the problem with the phone?
Sry if i made mistakes, im not english.
Thanks!
The optical adhesive used to bond the glass to the screen has for some reason lost its adhesion in that area. Get a hold of Samsung and let them know about the fault and ask them for advice.

ok, thanks!
My friend's s4 has a similar line. It happened for leaving it on the dashboard of the car when it was sunny.
The line was big at first, but it gets smaller with each day.
Maybe it will go away by itself after a few weeks
Soooo... My wife dropped her VS980 for the first time in 2 years. All seemed fine (hell I've dropped phones countless times) at least for an hour or two.
We got home and her screen started to do this:

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

So, I researched it and found that insulation of some screen components in the phone are very important to keep insulated. So I popped it open, and it looked fine. But I threw a piece of electrical tape between the components regardless:
Phone still does the lines. A few key notes: Dark backgrounds don't really affect it, turning brightness up high really sets it off, if I cycle the screen on and off it seems to go away, for a few seconds at least, before it starts creeping back into the screen.
Any thoughts? I was hoping if I powered down and left it inactive maybe it would give the LCD time to reset? Sounds stupid though. Could it be anything else? GPU? Bad luck?

Bought a new LCD from Fixez.com. Just arrived today. Hopefully this corrects the issues. I'll let you all know if it does.

UPDATE: The new screen worked perfectly. Took me about an hour, and was able to get it completely changed. Working great now. I hope this helps anyone troubleshooting screen issues!
