HELP: screen problems during boot and lock screen - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Note 3 has occasional problems during boot and consistent problems during lock screen.
Occasionally during boot instead of seeing the Samsung logo during startup the screen becomes pixellated and unchanging - i.e. a bunch of random pixels. The phone continues to boot up otherwise and the OS works. To buy-pass the boot problem I need to take the battery out of the phone for about 2 minutes (or more) and it would normally boot fine after that. When it boots up I often see a part of the screen momentarily go pixellated before it starts the usual boot loop.
When the devices boots up fine lock screen has problems. When I turn on lock screen the screen remains black thereafter and soon reboots.
I have SM-N9005 with LineageOS 18.1 +microG + Magisk. I don't think the problem is due to LOS because boot problems existed in the previous OS (Android 5), and lock screen problems occasionally came up. I hoped installing LOS will sort out the problems, but alas... I have tried using an app called Wakelock v3 to sort out the screen lock problems in the same way as for Note 4, but the app seems to have made no difference. Since installing LOS I have not had a single successful lock screen, with or without the app.
Any help or advice appreciated.

Nexus 7 screen glitching few seconds after booted in.

My screen glitches (think of TV static, but striped and colored similar to the background image) about 5 seconds after booting into android (after the nexus logo loads.
The tablet is fully functional doing the 5 seconds. After that, the screen glitches like above, and I can hear a faint sound from the nexus 7 that grows in pitch until it bursts and the device shuts down. Then, it tried to boot again and this process is repeated.
I don't know what caused this - I haven't used my nexus 7 for few weeks or so, and the last time I used it it was working.
The bootloader is unlocked but it is running stock 4.2.
I have tried booting into recovery mode and wiping data, but that doesn't fix anything.
Anyone know how to fix the issue?

Splash screen re-appears 3-4 times after reboot

A weird one this.
On my stock Note 3 with 4.3 firmware, everytime I boot up, I get this sequence
Splash screen and music play
Lock screen appears and I see the network bars appear
Bang - back to splash screen again
Lock screen appears and it seems to have lost the network
Bang - back to splash screen again
Lock screen appears and I see the network bars appear again.....
Sometimes it does one further cycle of this but eventually it settles down. If I boot up in airplane mode, then there are no repeats of the splash screen.
Any idea what is upsetting my Note 3?

I believe those are often timing-generated glitches related to mounting EFS and/or to SELinux / knox. I have seen similar a few times, in my case usually after a new Wanam Xposed + changes in more advanced settings there.
IMHO you should be more worried if that happens every single time.

Lag and random reboot

Have been using PA 6.0 for Nexus 7 flo for a few days. It has been a decent experience so far except these two problems-
1. There is a significant amount of lag at the multitasking screen when you are attempting to switch between apps the tab freezes for a few seconds. Sometimes I have to reboot to make it work again.
2. Have been getting random reboots quite a few times like one per day. While using it suddenly goes blank and shows up the 'Google' logo followed by the boot animation and it would start up again. (no bootloops though)
Everything else is working fine for now.
Edit: The lag only comes into play when Auto rotate is on in landscape mode or when switching between potrait and landscape mode.

Boot to blank screen, freezes at lock screen and mic issues

So phone worked fine running AOSiP current Pie then out of nowhere when I would reboot I'd randomly get a blank screen. Adb and fastboot commands still worked and eventually, after a few attempts it'd boot normally. Then the other day, after running great, I picked it up and was froze at the lock screen. Now every time the screen times out it freezes at the lock screen and can only be unlocked after a reboot, if I don't get the blank screen that is, and only right after booting but if the screen times out at all it freezes. Also, mic quit working for Google Assistant and voice to text in Messenger. Once unlocked everything works great, except the mic issue no freezes or glitches. I've flashed back to stock all the way back to the last Oreo updates and even ran with no restored apps or data and these problems exist each and every time. Any ideas?

OmniROM Boot Loop - Dark Mode Schedule Bug - Crash on Lock Screen

Hi, I installed OmniROM on my ASUS ZenFone 6 today and it was working well until...
I was changing the lock screen settings when it suddenly went back to the "OMNI" boot animation screen, and then once it reaches the lock screen, it repeats.
I don't think the device is actually restarting, but the boot animation is played in a loop... I think something in lock screen is wrong and it is crashing the entire phone
How do I fix this without wiping the data?
I found the cause of the bug, it happens after selecting a schedule for dark mode in settings. I made a video recording: https://odysee.com/omni-11-dark-theme-scheduled-crash:a
