Last week my display started flickering like a light bulb that is about to blow. First i though it was auto brightness but then realized that wasnt it. When using the phone the power constantly flickers and its extremely annoying. My replacement is waiting at the sprint store so its no big deal. I read the N5 forums and that phone seems to have alot of issues. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Yes my phone was charging and I went to check my notifications and I noticed it started flickering I took it off the charger and it stopped maybe it has to do with the wall plug

I've been noticing it happening more recently. when I connect my phone to my charger my phone tends to wake itself up. I plug my phone in and my phone is off or asleep. after about maybe a minute to 2 minutes the screen will wake up. I look in the options and have the option to keep a light on unchecked. my backlight timeout is set at 30 seconds, yet I've counted over 2 minutes where the light stays on until I manually choose to turn it off.
I don't like leaving the phone screen on because it can damage the screen. I can't quite figure out what could be causing the issue. I've done absolutely no modding to the phone its completely stock. I have got the j16 update but this is a more recent issue I'm experiencing.

I live in the Midwest and a few weeks ago we had a very bad storm that forced us to go into the basement. Power goes out storm finally thecalms down. I go upstairs to get my nexus and there are two blue spots on the screen and a terrible screen bleed at the bottom. It was plugged in to a pogo cable I left it was fine and came back it was all messed up. I've dropped the slippery tablet before but never had anything like this happen. Is there a possible fix? What are my options, it drives me nuts seeing that on my nice screen.

Could be a short circuit which occurred when the power when off and on.

+1 with this. Definitely sounds like some sort of electrical event happened.
Just as the title says.
I left it overnight, about 4 or 5 hours. I fell asleep and the screen didnt turn off. Seems pretty bad, I hear a lot of bad stuff about AMOLED burn in.
Have I damaged or screwed up my display?
You tell us. Do you notice any burn in?

I dont at the moment, no, but Ive never had an AMOLED phone before.
Should it be immediately noticeable? Is one night enough time to even cause burn in?
Thats what Im trying to ask here.
It would be noticeable right away. If you don't notice anything, then more than likely there's no burn in

Anyone know how to disable the feature that turns your screen off when you touch or cover the top left hand corner right above the display... It's like a proximity sensor or something and it bugs me because if I reach for the pull down bar my screen turns off and I have to re fingerprint and it slows what I'm trying to do down.. Is there any fix?
All I see is the display setting "keep screen turned off". I'm not sure if it'll work but worth a try.
Doesn't happen on my phone unless there is an active phone call.

Thought it was just me. Only happens when charging.

I've noticed the AOD goes with how the room is...so if it's dark it's going to look really dark. I put my phone in a my drawer and the screen went completely dark. AOD only works when there's light. In the dark it's really dim.

I noticed this morning something weird. I plug my phone to charge at night and leave it plugged in all night. I installed a glass screen protector, its not perfect but its ok. This morning when i unplugged it I noticed the middle had some rainbow action going but it didn't have that before. it has gone away and its back to normal.
My theory is the battery expanted pushing the screen up to touch the glass. My guess
Dont know if that is normal but it makes me think.
Ill see if it does it again
Thoughts?
