FP2 display issues, VERY disappointed at first, but VERY satisfied about support!

You’re not the only one.
Now after nearly two years, my FP2 also behaves similarly.

I have already in my FP2 life:

  • replaced the first case by the thin case because the volume buttons were losing their shape
  • switched the camera and power on buttons of this second case to avoid reboots
  • added some tape to maintain firmly the battery in place to avoid reboots
  • changed the bottom module because the USB connector and microphone were out of order
  • changed the rear camera (just to enjoy the enhanced photo capability :slight_smile: )
  • changed the screen because it started to display coloured pixels and other strange beahviour like the photos you posted and disassembling/cleaning/letting it dry in case it was due to droplets did not change anything

Now this display issue is really exhausting : everything is OK and suddenly it starts again, I am forced to twist my phone to see if it makes things better. Sometimes the FP2 displays a messages stating that the app that was running (whichever the app) is not responding, and the screen being unresponsive, only a battery removal can help.

I now dissassemble my FP2 on a daily basis, and each day I feel my patience slowly running low :frowning:

Note that I consider the hard reset as a really last chance solution, but I will have to find some time to backup and restore my apps and configuration.
