[Q] Droid 2 Screen Filled with Vertical Lines - Droid 2 General

I woke up last week and started using my phone to check email/twitter and everything was fine at first, then all of a sudden the screen filled with vertical lines:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The notification bar area still works. I've tried pulling battery, SBF, nothing works. When booting the screen stays black, but you can see the notification bar area is a different color black. The screen is not cracked, the phone wasn't dropped to make this happen, it just happened out of the blue. Any ideas?

Almost looks to me like the GFX chipset fried.
I've seen this on desktops and laptops in the past.
Is it under warranty still?

Or maybe the lcd cable needs to be fixed

Did you try the screen fix apps in the market?

I had a similar issue with a refurbed d2, right out the box, from asurian. Not much that can be done but get a replacement.

Help! - Washed Colours

Hi,
Today, I have no idea what happened but my display has gone funny. All the colours have faded and look washed, I tried tinkering with Automatic brightness but that hasn't helped.
The blacks have gone grey. Here are some screenshots to show what I am talking about.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The contrast ratio seems to have messed up. Please if someone could be kind and help me fix it, I'd much appreciate it.
Thank you!
This happened to me too when I applied a screen protector. Some of the liquids probably got into the phone. My screen even disappeared for a day. After the water evaporated it went back to normal.

I see nothing on those screenshots. It could be your hardware in that case.
It happened to me for a couple of days before while i was trying some custom roms, not sure why but it just went back to normal after all.

It sorted itself out. Back to Normal again

Weird lines on screen

Well, it started yesterday and it keeps driving me nuts. It's present both in the system as well as 4ext or even the splash screen so it is definitely a hardware issue. Is there any way to get rid of them because my contract ends in november but I was going to stay with my DHD and get myself a PS3 (very nice offer from my carrier)
It looks like that, it's not a screenshot but it looks exactly like that:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
what seems to be an officer problem?
the faint horizontal lines on the screen. That is only a picture but live they also flicker.
You could try replacing the screen yourself, but it could happen that the gpu is the problem, in which case you can't do anything on your own...

I remember having the same issue right after I bought my DHD and I remember rooting and reflashing it helped I recently changed my Radio software, you think it might have anything to do?
It's not hardware. I get it on the current versions of the 3 kernel. Synergy said it was to do with fb (not sure what it is) and he's working on it.

FB....hmmm....frame buffer (only thing that comes to mind except FaceBook) Anyway you're a life saviour man! I was worried that I will have to get a new phone.

[Q] Fix for Terrible Light bleed

Have terrible light bleed on my Nexus 7 that is approx 2 months old, been getting worse and worse, just filed for a RMA but Asus says they do not cross ship for tablets so I would be without it for 3-4 weeks.
Is there any fix I could try? Is this a similar issue to the screen lift problem everyone seems to be having? If I warp the tablet in my hand I can get the bleeding to be more or less or different places which leads me to think the screen isnt on straight.
Here is screenshot off it on a pure black background

I've gotten some lightbleed on my Nexus 7 (minor, not noticeable unless brightness is turned up) and the "ripple" when I press on the screen. I do assume this has something to do with how the screen is mounted, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
Ouch. Does it creak a lot to?

The only real way to fix this is with a screen/digitizer assembly replacement.

Screen "banding" and 'burn-in"

So I'm currently talking with Google and waiting on an email back to see their response...On any grey or dark surface, I have a white banding on either side of the screen that runs the height of it. I also experience some burn in with my calendar widget (due to the white boxes on it). You can see them in the one photo. It almost looks as they've burned in through the settings menu.
Has anyone else experienced the same issue?
I thought it might be normal at first but I compared it to my wife's N4 and her display is flawless!
White banding:

Burn-in:
damn, i experience the same.
i'll shoot a pic later.

Not normal. It is defective. Google should take care of it no problem and send a replacement.

I get it with the tapatalk app avatar boxes and the keyboard if I leave the screen on for a while. But it always clears its self up before I notice it to much more.
I've had my Nexus since February and its done it since day 1.

update touchscreen firmware, if not, it's a hardware defect.
there's plenty of these threads around
You can try update firmware but probably won't help. I have it too, for the second time. The fix is to replace the screen.
It often happens when charging the phone while doing something that makes it heat up. The cpu gets too hot and fries that part of the screen.
It can definitely happen without charging. I'm using a different phone now.
