Good to know. So far the display is still doing ok, with only the tiny black area a couple of pixels wide.

I wish there was a way to back-up all the zillions of settings in these things so I can copy them onto any replacement device I may get.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] beanbean50:
I use an app called Swift Backup, it backs up things like apps (and their settings) text messages, call logs, wallpapers and even wifi passwords! but you need the pro version to backup in the cloud (wasn't much about a fiver) not quite as good as a twrp recovery backup but way better than google backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Cheers! Yes I use Swift as well. I don't use cloud for anything unless I have to but I got the Pro version anyway as it's such a useful utility.

I don't think you can back up the myriad settings of the phone though can you?

Seeing as I'll put my phone back to factory before I send it in, even if they replace the screen and I get the 'same' phone back I'll have a load of faffing about to do!

Here are a couple of pics of the failing area of the display.

Oh dear, that shouldn't of happened and it's only going to get worse.

Be careful when putting it back to stock, I re-locked the bootloader while rooted on my previous phone (Flip 3) and managed to brick it. I was trading it in and had to send it to them for inspection first.

I popped a note in with the package explaining what I had done with an apology and a few days later got a reply saying my trade-in was successful..! (that's why I don't think it will be a problem with you being rooted)

WARNING: Read BEFORE Locking Bootloader

DO NOT LOCK THE BOOTLOADER WHILE ROOTED! When locking the bootloader while rooted, the boot image will fail verification and the system will fail to boot. You cannot flash a stock boot image with a locked bootloader. Locking the bootloader will...

[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Thanks. I'll give it a while and see how the screen develops. I was planning on re-flashing the latest stock firmware with Odin (with, the CSC file which wipes the device), then after that disable OEM Unlocking. Will that work?

I wonder how hard it will be to do that if the display stops working, as far as I remember you just have to get the phone in download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] johnny8910:
Not such problems for me.

I'm a fairly heavy user, and all is good.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] wpscully:
If you do send it back for repair it probably will be wiped. Samsung SmartSwitch application can backup everything to a USB stick, including anything in the secure folder. Settings, SMS, etc. That backup can take a lot of time but it seemed to work well for me.

My Flip5 is about six months old... waiting patiently for the screen protector to start to delaminate, as they historically do. ;--)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Great! It hasn't got any worse interestingly.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Thanks! What I did is get a knackered Flip 3 from eBay which is actually really great but obviously has had a lot of use.

Smartswitched my data over to that so now I have a spare phone with a copy of my data. Took about 1 hour backing up to a SATA SSD connected via USB3.

The Flip 3 basically has a split screen protector, but the screen itself is all perfect.

Mine doesn't have any signs of that but has the issues! For some reason!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] blackhawk:
Never trust SmartSwitch to back up critical data especially photos, docs and media files. Copy/paste to at least 2 drives that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC. Verify size, folder number and readability after the copy. Don't forget the Google password...

Sad but true... like a Mission Impossible recording.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Good advice.

I have a daily (used to be weekly) rsync of my phone to my Linux server, which in turn backs up off-site to another Linux server I run.

Smartswitch was useful to copy the stuff to a spare phone, but when I go back I'll be doing it cleanly from the rsync backups.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Oh yeah I use Swiftbackup to backup the messages etc
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] blackhawk:
It nice to restore home settings but generally I like to do a clean load as they can lasts years if you don't do firmware updates/upgrades.

Using SmartSwitch to a different model or OS version is where it's most likely to fail.

However if it fails to restore... I remember Kies doing this. SmartSwitch is just a glorified version of Kies.

I goofed up and saved/installed more than I had intended to from my one N10+/Pie to it's twin N10+/Q with SmartSwitch. So now that it's full configured and optimized if it doesn't settle in right... another factory reset and a clean load😂

I'm having some scoped storage related glitches, not sure if it's because of SmartSwitch or just the nature of the beast. Found the needed work arounds but will be monitoring the stability of this load closely. SmartSwitch adds another element of uncertainty.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Another layer of uncertainty - exactly.

I'm not sure Smart Switch is that smart - which is fine, I don't want it to be.

But if it could tell us what it's not smart method actually did that would be helpful.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] mt2020:
I keep all photos in Google and back up to Microsoft OneDrive. All my contacts, calendar, tasks, notes are in Outlook (or you could use Google) . Only thing Samsung/Google backs up are messages, phone logs and settings (and apps installed). Makes it easy to switch since phones since basically no real important data is kept on phone. All I care about is easy reinstall of apps and phone settings. Oh, and I use Microsoft Launcher, and it has never failed me on restore.

Now if they could find a way to save all my app defaults for notifications and such, and accounts, that would be great!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] iceepyon:
You have void your warranty, once you have rooted your device. Looks like you need to get a 3rd party to repair it for you
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Thanks. I'm not into companies like MS or Google so don't want to copy my stuff to them. I think I have the backup side of things figured out.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Hmm. If that's the case then will Samsung send it back to me? It's clearly not a software issue....

If I could obtain an OE screen assembly I would just do it myself.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Developments with this - screen had a fairly bright white / green line where the fold is for about a week. This seems to have gone away now.

What it does now is when the screen first lights up you get the black line for a second or so then it disappears (at higher brightness) or at low brightness the top half of the screen appears as normal then the bottom sort of flickers in from the right.

And still got the dead black blob which is a bit bigger.

Hard to get pics / vids but I will if anyone's interested.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] iceepyon:
Yeah, sounds like either your display is starting to fail or the ribbon cable connected to your display is loose or broken. Either way your Flip 5 needs to be repaired
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] iceepyon:
Yes, they should. If they have detected that your Flip 5 has been rooted. If you are lucky and they didn't detect it. Then they will replace the display on your device FOC
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
Screen is still going, still undecided what to do!

Don't really trust Samsung to repair it properly and don't trust them not to just turn around and say it's my fault or just lose the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] iceepyon:
I have had my Fold 3 repaired by Samsung and the did an excellent job replacing the display. Besides if they do lose your phone, they will have to give you a replacement phone as it is their fault
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] blackhawk:
Yes, well... others have had issues with Samsung repair.

Take detailed pictures of phone on all sides before boxing. Double box. Insure it for full value of the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] Purple!:
Absolutely untrue, this has proven multiple times in court that hardware failures like these are still covered even after software modification. At least for sure in the EU, I assume the UK (even though Brexit happens) follows similar ruling

I bet it happened not because you folded the phone, but because the phone is really unprotected while unfolded. The display is super sensitive, you should fold the phone when not in use, so the stronger outer shell can protect it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] flipping awesome:
It's possible but the damage is exactly where the display folds. I do see what you mean though.

just fyi :

I updated the first post in this thread about How to apply the Android security patches to a local repository after successfully using the instructions to apply the Android Security Patches 05-02-2024 for Android 14 to a local repository with OmniROM 14
[ASUS ZenFone 8] RT1648:
Can we use the script to merge the latest security patches in other roms like arrow, pe,etc...
[ASUS ZenFone 8] bnsmb:
Depends -- most probably not.

The scripts to merge the security patches are specific for each custom ROM because the repositories that must be merged may be different due to the decision of the ROM developer. I would check the directories in ./vendor/ for a script to merge the security patches.

And out of curiosity:

Do you have some URLs for the repos for other Custom ROMs?

I don't have a Tilt anymore, so I cannot test this, but the Fuze is set to keep the screen off by default when an SMS/MMS comes in. Try adding this registry key to your phone.

Indeed, since these phones have the same characteristics and a motherboard of the same size, it is possible according to your link, you will have a RENOIR and no longer a LISA.
