Screen issue

Hi,
Since i few days, my screen doesn't turn on when I turn on my phone. I get a black screen until rom bootscreen, but it is... strange ( look at the pictures ). To take colors back, I have to turn off then on my screen.
Do you know what can be the problem? Is it a screen issu or connection between motherboard and screen problem?
Thanks

I've been having a similar issue to you. It started last week. Same thing, no longer see the white HTC bootloader screen, but the difference is, mine boots normally into the OS.
When this started, though, the first time, the screen did change colours similar to yours, and was also inverted (upside down and backwards). Very strange.
Looks like we're both running ROMs based on Sense 3.0... wonder if that contributed.

you should try replacing the lcd. might have gone bad if the colors are messed up like that. ill pm u a link to a cheap one.

Same thing has been happening to mines. Does it more when the phone is hot.
I believe its just the lcd going out or the ribbon cable from the phone to the screen coming lose or getting messed up.

Don't think just being loosewould cause that, plus how would it get loose?

dropped it from two feet! was in the rugged zero lemon 7500 mAH case :X DOH =/

Might be able to get away with a warranty claim as it's all damaged underneath, just say you didn't drop it or anything

Who gets warranties on smart phones these days? I paid the $8/mo to Sprint for their warranty plan for two years for basically nothing. Unless you're a clutz (which we all can be at times, sh*t does happen), most people I would like to think that hang around XDA take care of their phones like they are newborn babies (that is, we'll hold them ever so gently but will throw them in a fighter jet traveling 1000000mph).
In any event OP, I would guess the problem is with your digitizer, since that is what makes the magic happen and produce our images. You could try taking your phone apart to see if by some miracle the ribbon was knocked loose. Otherwise, might need a new digitizer.

[Q] Something under my screen.

Does some people have the same problem as I have?
There seems to be something underneath my glass screen. Looks like scratches, but its between the bezel and the beginning of the screen.
Some pictures about my case:

Nothing there if I turn on my screen :

Stuck pixels? Had it happen on my n10. Looked like dust under the glass when the screen was off & couldn't see it when the screen was on. Stuck pixel remover worked for me.

It is not in the screen, it's below the screen. I think there are no pixels there.

Probably a defect in the glass bonding... contact the carrier or LG and see if you can get it replaced. That's what the 1 year warranty is for...

I'm scared to lose my phone for 3 weeks and they say: it's your own fault (it's not, I didn't drop it once) and after that I need to pay the research and transport costs.
And if I want to get it fixed, it will me a lot more!
Going to the carrier shop tomorrow. Let's hear them out.

What model is it and what is your carrier? Most carriers handle this type of return w/o issue.

LG D802, Dutch carrier KPN. Have a 52,50 euro monthly contract. One time 350 euro for phone.

Speaking of the N10, at least it's not an ant.?

[Q] While fixing my screen I broke this, phone still working

So my phone's screen was not working. I bought a new screen and while installing it I accidentally broke the part highlighted below on my motherboard. Can anyone tell me what this part is.

I have reassembled it and it is working as expected, but I just wanted to check what I have damaged.

I think that's for the NFC? Don't quote me but I believe it would be so since the back over has the contacts. I could be wrong though

I don't think so. Take a look at this photo from iFixit's Nexus 4 teardown. From what I've understood, those four squared contacts in the middle on the left side are for NFC. Furthermore, looking at the other contacts in the back, I doubt the highlighted part is a contact.
NB: Red parts should be links, but I haven't reached my 10-post minimum yet. I'll fix it asap but for now just search 'iFixit Nexus 4 Teardown' on Google and scroll down to step 8, it's the first photo.
Sorry for quoting anyway buddy..

Looks pretty much undamaged, what a durability! : DDDDDD

The funny part is that the phone still was receiving notifications until the battery was dead and the notification light was still working The lift is weigh about 6000 kg (A big one)

I just realized how much I love my phone Accidents happen - be careful next time

And here I thought when I saw the 'pickup truck running over an Xperia Active' that smartphones are becoming sturdier..
They should change the rolled over test from a truck to a lift
But seriously, 6 tons?? A smartphone would have to be made of diamond or something to withstand that.

Clearly you did not have a screen protector on it... shame on you
The magic question is... are going with the same color?
