Screen Center Not Working - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, today I noticed that the center of my screen was not working. Is this common and I have to change the screen or what?
Thanks.

yup, it's a common problem.. see this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYvyeT1XDaw
You must change the screen bro, sorrry

Oh, what a shame. Can't I fix myself without changing the screen? I mean, by opening the phone or something

Hum, you can try to replace the flex cable on the mainboard, sometimes the cable is loosed, give it a try

Sorry, didn't have time. So, I have to buy the touch screen or the display module? I saw that the second is very expensive.

if you have any idea to make anything please tell me
Please look at a guide here in u8800 section how to disasseble your phone (dont do it, if you have your phone under warranty). It may be broken LCD, or hopefully, a disconnected cable for the LCD. I'm sorry I cant help more.

Many rectangle on screen

Hi all , i have used Nexus 4 for four days . I see many small rectangles on my screen ( screen off) when the shunshine(or light) radiate to my screen . Is it ok ?
Thanks all and sorry for my bad English
Small rectangles? Not sure what it's supposed to mean you should take a picture so others can help you
If it's really a defect and not some smudge or something then you could request for a RMA from Google, send it back and get a shiny new Nexus 4.
Is normal. What you are seeing is the digitizer.

Yes, it's fine, it's the digitiser.

[Q] No touch response.

Hi! First, sorry for my english, im from Argentina.
I have a huge problem here. I have installed CM 10.1 and works perfects, but, I was not using the Nexus 7 for several days.
Today I unlock the tablet and now, I have no answer for the touch response.
I can do anything, unlock, volume up, down, go to recovery, but still no response of the touch panel.
I can't check the USB Debugging because I can't get it! so I can't use the Wug Nexus root Toolkit.
What can I do?
Thanks.
and again, Im sorry. ^_^
Sounds like a loose flex cable...

Here's a step by step on how to open it up. http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus+7+Teardown/9623/1
And here are the display cables you should check. Steps 6-9 here http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing+Nexus+7+Display+Assembly/9945/1
You could also get an OTG cable and then plug in a USB mouse to navigate the system.

I had open it and reconnect all the wires, but... Still not working.
The USB Mouse works fine, but I can't do nothing. I had Wipe and nothing again.
The custom touch recovery works fine, but the touch's still not working so... I can't navigate between the Recovery.
Can I do something? Inside I don't see any problem .
Thanks anyways...
and again, sry for my english.
The digitizer sounds like a bad egg... Replacing the whole screen/digitizer assembly will be the easiest way to fix.

where can I get them? dx?
Here in Argentina we don't have a ASUS repair or something else like that :'(
Rly thanks for the reply.
Amazon, ebay, etradesupply. On amazon and ebay, make sure you search for OEM parts. You can and will end up with a counterfeit part if you are not careful.

my screen is flipping out

yeah this happened after i put a new lcd and digitizer in it. could this possibly be because i bought a 2013 screen model and put it in a 2012 one or are they the same. ive checked all connections completely and there fine.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APh2_faAwrg
anyone havbe any suggestions?
The problem is the two model's screen is not the same. Different resolution and different density.

Just search eBay for a nexus 7 1st gen screen. Also how did you even get the screen to fit they are different connections and different bezel sizes if the screen you fitted actually fits then there is no way its the wrong screen

Well I replaced the cables....it belped a little bit bit not much whats weird is therw are some screens such as the recent apps amd wallpaper screens that dont flicker at all and are perfectly normal. Im kinda out of ideas now. Every cable has been replaced
OK if the screen is consistently OK on some apps and not on others it must be a software problem. Try to get into recovery and do factory reset if that doesn't fix it then flash a new factory image. There are instructions in the stickies

Its not as difficult as it sounds you could use wugfresh NRT it has an unroot and back to stock option that does the same thing as flashing a new image in adb. Have you considered that this may be the reason it was sold broken but with a new screen?

That is a possibly how much do you know about the person who sold you it? I would try to reproduce the fault open one of the apps that doesn't flicker and shake the tablet about. If he has damaged the connection on the motherboard then that will make it flicker. Recovered motherboards for the n7 are not expensive the other possibility is a faulty LCD. I bought a mb for £30 and I think in USA they are even cheaper about $20

I tried applying pressure on various regio s shaking it about etc etc but nothing changed it. Once whe I snapped the back cover on it went normal for a split second but didnt stay. The guy I bought it from was my bud he had recently brome it on a trip to chicago that we were on and didnt want to try and fix it. So here I am....... all cables have bee replaced so im not sureee what to do now I dont believe its a faulty lcd but maybe. Sorry for all the spelling errors
@gears177 OK well that rules out him ripping you off at least my guess would be the connection between the ribbon and the motherboard try contact cleaner on it if that doesn't work then a new motherboard is the next step. Perhaps it was damaged when the screen was broken. It could also be damage to the GPU but that's unlikely as the motherboard is well designed to withstand or absorb shocks

These s view covers are not original and the cost is almost is 95% less than the original one so they dont work perfectly as there is a circuit for s view cover so we have to remove them and refresh them we can say so that tgey can work properly, i do this task after every 2-3 days.
Issue resolved.
