I picked up my v10 (LG H901 unlocked) and tried unlocking, the screen was completely dimmed out. I could hear notification sounds and had the haptic feedback when unlocking with fingerprint but nothing could be seen. I took out the battery restarted the phone and the screen booted up into the home screen but dimmed out completely again after barely 3 secs. It's continued till now, I hear notification sounds, the vibrations work but the screen is completely blacked out.
Taking out the battery and reinserting starts the phone normally but goes blacked out again after it loads.
I'm on Android 7.0. Help pls

Power off the phone...hold down the volume down and power buttons at the same time....when you see the lg screen appear briefly (1 second) release the power button while keeping the vol down pressed..then re-press the power button....all this in the end should boot you into recovery...it will ask you a couple of scary questions which you can say yes or no to....the bottom line is this...if you can see fine in recovery then you've set the brightness way to low and/or installed an app that's done that to you in your ROM. If recovery is to dark to read then it's a physical issue with your device. About the only thing that's gonna undo the rom issue if it's that is a factory reset (which you can do from recovery). If you were using auto brightness then make sure when you get back into your rom that you disable it until you can figure out what you did that caused it to get so dark you can't read it.

Thanks for the response.
I have the same problem. Did you find any solution?

I'm puzzled by this as I unplugged it in the morning, drove to work, and sat down in my office to discover the phone is unresponsive to everything when it was working just fine 15 minutes before that. I don't want to do a battery pull just yet. All the buttons are unresponsive and when I plug it into a computer the screen usually goes to the lockscreen but it did not and it wasn't recognized by computer. It did not have a security screen lock active and I have not updated p-rom or any firmwares in the past few weeks. OTA updates were deactivated prior to my last p-rom update. Does anybody have any insight to this? Rooted 1.8.3 gladiatrix 3 b0.2.
Battery pull, and hope that fixes it. Usually the red blinky light means something made the e-fuse mad, and so now it's trying to revert your phone back to factory settings (at least that's what I've seen in the past)
If a battery pull doesn't fix it, reboot while holding the volume down button. When it shows fast boot, press down until you get to android recovery. Press the volume up key, and when you see the android with in the triangle, tap above the search button (sometimes I have to tap it like 20 times before the menu appears), then select wipe data. That will wipe your phone, but should get it back working.
May be soft conflict, i got 02 times. It happens when i ran many apps.

In my experiencemit was just 2.2. Flashing 2.3.4 fixed it for me
Last night my phone was working fine. This morning I awoke late for my day because my alarm clock didn't go off, looked at my phone to figure out why and all I saw was a blank screen. Playing with the power button I am able to get it to a mode where the orange charging light turns on and the softkeys seem to respond (they provide haptic feedback at least). The backlight stays off, but I can tilt the phone around and see a cyan line stretching the width of the screen and I can manuever it up and and down using the volume keys. There are 10 items in this menu it seems since on the 11th click of the volume button the line jumps to the top of the page.
Can anyone help me? I've tried taking out the battery for 10+sec, I've tried removing supplemental hardware (sd/sim cards), I've tried on and off charger.
EDIT: It would seem the key is to loose all hope of it working, but continue to press the power button in desperation and after about 40+ attempts at power at this point it might turn on. I'm officially terrified I am going to wake up without my phone at any given day now =[
Rooted? Stock? Recovery? Rom?
Hello everyone,
I'm a newbie at rooting.
I have used CM for 3 months but for a week it got a little strange.
Scenario 1) When I push the power button to get to lock screen, the soft buttons' light turn on for a moment but no change happens on screen. I push power button again, the same result. No other respone from my mobile. If I push power button for 10 sec to reset, i see a little green or purple light beam from the bottom right. After a while, it disappears. And still no response. I remove the battery as a last resort and put it back, when I push the power button, it's the same. Little colorful light beams...
Scenario 2) A short time ago, while I was playing a game on it, the screen just turned off and I pushed the power button... as you guess, the story goes on the same way.
It's now off, I couldn't get to it in any way.
What can I do to solve and how?
You guess it's urgent.
Sorry for my poor English, thanks in advance.
Can you restart the phone in download mode, or recovery mode?
I just figured out something:
The phone turned on and I disabled developer settings. After this, when the screen is locked and off and I push the power button, I see nothing on the screen (maybe a little purple or green beam at the right bottom) but the soft buttons turn on. I slide right to unlock without seeing anything, I pass the lock screen and it's now open. (when I touch the screen, the soft buttons turn on again and again as it should be) I just scroll the main pages right and left, push the volume or main button, they work. (it beeps when the sound is max) after 30 - 40 seconds... yay! The screen is on! It's totally the same all the time. It needs time to turn on?
Is it a software problem or is my screen about to break down?
Thanks again!!
it's a software problem. You can either factory reset, run the trim command if you're running android 4.3, or change to a different ROM.
Guys i was in my settings a few minutes ago and i came across a feature which enabled me to open up my notifications by just tapping the screen so i enabled it and went to the homescreen to test it! Upon tapping the screen the phone started maing a beeping noise and a blue line started scrolling continously downward on the screen! I cant turn the phone off ! I only seem to be able to reboot it which doesnt help! I needto power the phone off i assume and then maybe do a hard reset??? Advice needed please
anyone?
What setting did you access I don't believe anybody will be able to help if we don't know where you went and what you changed. The things you mention are very vague and don't really paint a picture of what is happening.
Also if you want to turn the phone off without using the on screen settings just hold onto the power button for about 10 seconds it should turn off, after that hold power, home button, and volume up to go into recovery to reset or what ever it is you please.
Also is it showing you an X and Y axis? If so then you just go into settings, developer settings, show screen updates and turn that off the grid should go away. I am not sure what your issue is but that seems like the most likely option.
After splash screen, screen blank but phone sinks with BT & capacitive lights active
Today I tried to update my phone to the newest firmware (I think it was .210, but I know it was from August 5th on firmware finder...I know its a long time to wait to update, but I started a new job, moved to a new city, etc. so things have been super crazy). Unfortunately, after flashing with EMUI Flasher, the phone rebooted and then got an update failure. I restarted the phone and waited but the screen was black. However, my smart band paired and if I press the power button, the capacitive button lights turn on, but the screen is blank/black. I have tried rebooting, both regularly holding power for 20 seconds as well as holding the power key with volume up and then volume down. I can reboot into a recovery of sorts and tried to wipe cache and restart, as well as boot into safe mode, but both result in the black screen from before. I can also boot into fastboot, but don't know what I could do to fix this.
Any advice as to how I can save my phone would be really appreciated. I'm really hoping I don't have to wipe the phone.
Please help me!
