Hello
I have a rooted Galaxy A5 with stock Lollipop 5.0.2 installed. Lately I've been trying to figure out how to install the Xposed framework and Xprivacy. So I was reading something about having the bootloader unlocked before doing a TWRP recovery and I couldn't find a way to see if my phone has it unlocked or not.
I was then thinking that maybe I can find some info about this if I enter recovery mode (been a long time since I rooted and can't remeber much) and so I turned my phone off and held down volume up, home button and power button.
Samsung logo shows up and everything seems fine at first. The screen then goes black with bright green pixels and lines slowly fading in and the samsung logo again as well, slightý visible behind this green mess that now covers the screen. It then slowly fades back to black with a few grey lines visible and nothing happens. I panic and and hold down the same buttons again and fortunately it rebooted like normal.
I have never had a problem with this phone or the stock firmware that I'm using (before root it was swedish/scandinavian, now uk I believe.)
What's going on and what to do? Can frozen apps affect any of this?

used gingerbreak on g2. Got superuser and everything was great. Now (don't know why) no splash screen, no recovery even holding down volume and power on boot, random screen blackout. tried to re-gingerbreak with no effect. tried hard reset with no effect. stuck in hell please help. phone is stock rom and has no modifications even has all bloat-ware.
p.s. initial problem upon booting screen black but have lights at bottom after stock boot sound hit power twice and phone is active like normal. now stuck like this after each boot and couldn't find anything about the problem after searching. I hope this hasn't been covered before. Any thoughts? I am at my wits end about to get out the light saber and take out my frustrations on the mutt
If your phone is this: http://www.htc.com/us/products/t-mobile-g2/ then you're in the wrong place.
My Friend gave me an S5 to fix. When you turned it on it would give some message about not loading the OS. I downloaded Odin and what I believe is the correct stock ROM SM-G900F O2 UK.
I managed to install the ROM fine however the screen has totally died. The phone wasn't dropped or anything. I can boot into Recovery and into the OS. Pressing the home button 3 times gives me audio description of the OS.
The screen does not even turn on to show the boot logo. I tried reinstalling the ROM (I had to get into recovery blind) but no joy. It's like a hardware issue however that seems too much of a co-incidence to have had it happen at the same time as flashing the ROM. The colour LED lights up and the side buttons light and vibrate.
Any ideas how to fix? All the blank screen stuff I've found via google the boot logo still shows.
side button lights? are you sure you have an s5 g900x

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
im betting he's referring to the capacitive buttons flanking the home button
Yeah I'm sure on the the phone is a G900F, I'm referring the side buttons. Any ideas? Can a ROM flash kill the screen totally?
my galaxy s4 gt-i9515 is stuck on boot loop. This is despite numerous efforts of flashing stock lollipop 5.0 rom into it and when it eventually boots up the phone heats up and the screen turns bright white. I've even checked on the power key and its okay.
Potential hardware issue. Meaning, get a new phone or an S4 with a broken screen and replace the motherboard.
Can you access download mode or recovery?

Remove the battery then place it in and press the volume up home and power button at the same time hope it helps:
So this happened when I installed latest version of LOS14.1.
Basically happened to me 3 times, the screen won't turn on after I lock my phone, reboot doesn't help and there is no logo on boot. Black screen in recovery and download mode. I managed to enter download mode and installed stock firmware but the phone screen is still black.
When it first happened I managed to 'repair' the screen by pressing power button for some time. Second time it happened I got lucky again and screen turned on so I did factory reset. This time I can't do anything, I flashed the stock firmware and the screen is still black with blue LED on. I'm out of options and have no idea what to do, I am going to open my phone tomorrow to check if some cables loosened up.
Hey there!
I have a problem with my Note 4 (N910F). A few days ago my note got into a bootloop. I tried to get into TWRP but it didnt work.
Now I flashed the full stock rom and the bootloop is gone.
But now there is the problem that the phone is booted up but the screen is black. When i start tallback by pressing home button for three times it starts talking to me... Buttons on the phone are also responding and giving feedback.
When i start the phone it shows me the note 4 logo. After that only the blue led lights up during boot with no bootlogo shown. after booting up the led shuts off and screen keeps black...
Does anybody have an idea what i can do?
Thanks in advance
