[Q] Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 No Display Image but touch works - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys thanks in advance for your help. I'm really having a weird issue with one of my galaxy S4.
Here's the thing. I can hear the phone boots up properly making sound and also vibrates and the touch pad lights up. However, I don't see any image display, when I touch the screen and do a swipe I can hear the swiping sound. I tested the LCD screen with another galaxy S4 and it's confirmed working. Anyone of you guys experienced this? I just don't know what else to try. I tried to to a hard reset but still no image shows up. I'm leaning towards the motherboard but I don't know where to check. I checked the solder on the port connector and it looks fine. Any help is great appreciated

Touch Screen Not working

Guys my friend was using her Cingular 8525 and some of her sweat ran down the screen into the send/end section of the phone at the bottom of the phone. Now the touch screen dosen't work I have opened it and checked everything seems fine is there something I am missing?
Thanks in advance
Regards
No idea but will comment as I would love for someone who knows something about "touch screens / digitizers" to chime in and offer some advice and knowledge!
My issue is a bit diffrent. My screen broke and I purchased and installed a replacement. The problem I now have is every click on the screen only registers in the Top Left (Start Menu) and I am not sure what to do next.

In-Call: Screen turns off and unresponsive

Hi everyone,
I recently changed my HTC's Aria digitizer because it was cracked.
During the process everything went smoothly however after that I have discovered that when a person calls me or when I call someone the screen turns off and never gets back to normal if there is no other "stimulation" such as putting the phone to charge for example.
My guess was there was a problem with the sensor so under settings I chose to keep the screen awake at all times during a phone call, still, I am having the same problem.
The weird thing is that sometimes when I remove the battery cover everything works fine and the screen keeps on, but sometimes not, so its not a constant rule..
I may have messed up something during the replacement of the digitizer (its just the glass not the lcd) such as removing the sensor and not placing it back correctly but the thing is that I dont really know the components of this device so Im not sure what is what..
If anyone could help me to understand the problem a little bit I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advanced..
Anyone? Please
The sensor is right above the AT&T logo. If the little rubber ring isn't perfectly aligned with the sensor, you will have this problem. My wife's phone has a similar problem and it is fixed (temporarily) by firmly pressing on that corner. The adhesive strips have failed and I am looking for a source besides "Repairs Universe".
Thanks a lot!
I will try to take apart my Aria again and see if I can align it correctly
thanks again
glad that i found this, having same issues with my wife's aria, will give it a shot

Q: Having a really big bug, wanting to know if this is anybody else

Hey guys, I've had my G2 for a couple weeks now, it's been great except for one thing. If I push down slightly on where the headphone jack / micro USB port is, the screen starts freaking out and pressing random buttons, until I turn the screen off and on. Anybody else getting this error ?

Can't confirm. You need to get a replacement
Never had that issue. Try doing it while the quickmemo is active and let us know what you see.
I believe there to be build quality issues, but I didn't see too many other people posting until you did. My first G2 was defective in that every time I plugged in to either the headphone jack or the USB port there was a chance the backlight would stop working. If I squeezed the LG logo it would start working again (note, the screen itself was fine and kept displaying an image and would respond to touch, but the backlight wouldn't illuminate the screen). There are probably a number of connections in that bottom area and it seems they're prone to failure. My replacement G2 is fine, though, and a Google search for my symptoms came up empty so it must not be widespread.

Samsung Galaxy S4 black screen and responsive to touch and sound

Hello, I am new to the galaxy world and have a question. I have an S4 that turns on and vibrates when powered on. The screen flashes a quick green and then goes black and stays black. It makes noise when the samsung logo comes up. The screen is responsive and all the buttons work. I am curious is to what needs to be replaced or what to try and fix the issue. Is the didgitizer bad or is the whole lcd display bad. I guess any help at this point would be great. Thanks in advance.
had same problem

I was recently flashing a recovery and at one point I had my battery out and still had my phone plugged in. I look at my phones screen and it is doing this weird flash white static every once in a while thing. Next time i try to start up my phone Boom Black. the only way i found to work around is that i recovered so that it would bring me to the original start up screen where this is an accessability options tab there i was able to turn on screen prompts so it tells me what my finger is on and lets me dbl tap to sect. then with headphones on i spent a day getting it to where i can do h/w testing. still cant figure it out tho

[Q] S4 i9505 boots up to black screen, no boot logo

Hey there, I'm having some serious trouble with my S4 i9505, I recently did a LCD and digitizer replacement, and the connectors are connected, but the phone boots up with a green screen (pic included) the blue led notification light turns on, and the boot up music plays, then the home row button backlights turn on, and it also makes notification sounds, so it's alive... but nothing visually so to speak. I've tried almost every troubleshoot suggestion under the sun; but to no avail. Anyone else out there who has experienced this and could give some insight as to a solution? Much appreciated, thanks.

If the connectors are connected then the screen is probably dead.

I doubt it, since the screen does flicker when I press the power button rapidly a few rings, and the LCD and digitizer are brand new, replacement parts I had ordered, so not sure what the underlying issue is... going to take it into a repair shop it seems.
