Screen problems - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When ever my screen times out and turns off, and it turns right back on and it keeps doing this. I don't know what happened to my phone to make it cause this. Is there anything I can do to fix it at all

Is this on a particular ROM or on all ROMs? Perhaps your power button or trackpad are going bad?

Mine is doing this as well. I've tried different ROMs and even bought a new battery. I cant get the screen to stay off. Does anyone else have any ideas?

I've had this happen when specific apps are running that want to keep it awake, like stopwatch apps, clocks, etc. Maybe it's app-specific?

Sounds like a stuck pixel. There are many screen test apps in the market, pick one and see how it runs
Yes, i tried some apps but it didnt solve the problem. Is there some app that can fix the bad pixel?

Have you try jscreenfix on the marked
Yes i ran jscreenfix for about 30 minutes on charging. I will try now again without charging . I hope will be ok, because i found one more stuck pixel. I using this phone one week and ive got 2 stuck pixels.

sounds like you will need to send it back under warranty, it happens sometimes its just bad luck when it does.
Yes, i went to store and they give me a new one straight away. Now everything is ok. I am happy

What's wrong with my power button?

Does anyone else have an issue with their power button? It seems as if I have to push it down really hard now to turn phone off or restart phone. I have the white one if that means anything. No other problems until now.

Had that same exact problem when I had my white. I switched to black and the power button iz MUCH better. It sticks out more too so it makes the power button a breeze to push with no effort. Sometimes I push it just for the hell of it.

Bottom touch buttons not as "touchy"?

Has anyone else seen this...my bottom "back" button (menu-home-back-search) seems to be much less responsive than it used to be...all the others seem ok... Is there a way to calibrate their sensitivity?

I don't think there is a way to calibrate those. But some thing you might want to add to the OP is what rom you are on maybe there is a setting that I don't know about.
I'm on mostly stock now... Tried out Thunderhawk's latest and saw no difference.... (with that at least)...

might be a hardware problem then. if you went back to stock and same thing is happening.
Yeah...my that's my guess too...likely that my phone just has a little hardware issue...it still works, but I frequently have to hit the back button 2 or 3 times to get it to register...sigh.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
its a hardware issue. My search button isn't as sensitive as the others. Good thing I don't use that often.

I wish MY search button was the one getting weak...I never use that thing! Sigh...

Screen Flicker Issue

Anyone else got this? Basically, when the phone screen isn't moving, such as when I'm reading some text, the screen flickers. For example, whenever I'm reading a post on xda, the white background around the text starts to flicker, and it is really noticeable in the dark while just reading posts in my rom thread, and its very distracting. (Happens when keyboard is open and closed)
Anyone else have this? Anyone know what part I should buy to replace it?

i had this a few months ago and now the phone is on low all the time cant turn up, the brightness it still flickers a bit brighter every now and then.
if you have the same as me it isnt the screen i was thinking its was the ribbon cable and couldnt find a cheap replacement based on a hunch,
now i seen more people getting this i would guess its the driver board for the screen,
not looked in to this though and dont want to folk out money on a phone i am looking to replace as soon as the driod 4 gets GSM.

What to do when the phone freezes?

Hey there.
First off I'd like to say that I currently own a LG O2X but I'm planning to buy a N4 as soon as it's available again.
Now, to my question:
Let's assume that the phone freezes and it doesn't restart or react to anything you do. You can't take the battery out to reset the phone. What can you do to reboot it? That kinda makes me worry, as I haven't used any Android phone besides my O2X yet and I encounter this issue sometimes and fix it by taking out the battery and putting it back in.
Thanks in advance.

Hold down the power button.

Does that cause the phone to reboot? With a freeze I mean a complete freeze. Touchscreen not responding to anything etc. That includes no power menu when holding down the power button.
Sent from my LG-P990 using xda app-developers app
Yes holding down the power button is like basically doing a battery pull. Take like 6-10 seconds.

Okay. Whew. Now I'm relieved and can't wait to get my hands on a N4. Thanks alot.

I hope that's a somehow hardware implemented thing that can't go wrong no matter how ****ed up the software is.

Yeah same here. Otherwise that would be disappointing and annoying at the same time.
