my TP is freaking out....the screen gets all jumbled up and if im in the TF3D home screen it is impossible to tell wahts going on...sections of the screen are moving are and all jumbled up...not only in TF3D thats just the worst...all other screens do it as well...txt messaging...programs ect....ive soft reset plenty of times with no luck...and taking the battery out and putting it back in seems to fix it for about a minute or so...just happened this morning out of nowhere...no new apps or any other changes

If its not stock put it back to stock rom and relock and take it in for a replacement. Pretty much a no brainer there.

Have you tried a hard reset? (I know, typical answer)

+1 for a hard reset (back up your contacts, etc. first). If that doesn't fix the problem then it's time for a replacement.

yeah i was hoping i didnt have to do hard reset but im gonna post some screen shots see what you guys think....and it is stock really dont feel like going for replacement unless neccesarry...ill have those screen shots up in a few minutes

ummm pretty crazy to say but screen shots show the screen like it should be....like its not the glitching....

ok well i guess im looking at hard reset...cant figure out whats going on.....i downloaded a tf3d theme...or it may have only been the icons not sure....any way to figure out which one i downloaded or to backup the one i have so i can reinstall it after the hard reset?

just a question but if you touch say the right upper corner of the screen does the start menu open.. i just had and issue with mine doin something along the same lines. my screen just went nuts and picture was scrambled. does it freak out whenever u touch the screen? the sprint guy told me that a wire inside the phone got stretched out and the phone needed replaced. ya i read more u neeed to get it replaced. i tried screenshots too and they were fine.. i have pics of it though from my mogul

it freaks out no matter what...at first i thought maybe some crazy thing with the g sensor....bc i would move it and it would freak out and now even if i leave it sitting on a flat surface it still does it...it occasionally doesnt do it or stops but then goes insane again

ya they did say the g-sensor was messed up too. it will eventually get worse and then it will decide to go all blue or all green or blue with green lines all over the screen. is your screen alignment off? when u touch it is it off by a lot?
