Yesterday I updated to the last version in order to check the brand new /e/ app store, and shortly after having a look at it the screen went completely grey (see picture). I hard reseted the phone and looked as the problem was solved and /e/ started normally, but then the screen started to split into 2, 3, 4 parts… (see picture) and kept moving upwards. Since then I’m unable to use my /e/ phone (Nexus 5 - hammerhead). It’s not a big deal because I got the phone from a relative just for testing, but anyway I would like to know what happened because I’m planning to buy a second hand Xiaomi Mi A1 to install /e/ to use it as a daily device, and I wouldn’t like the same to happen.
That looks like a hardware issue…
I also thought the same.
You could try reverting to stock to see if this issue of the screen splitting happens in it as well.

Ok, thanks @Manoj and @andrelam, I’ll chek the Internet and try to revert it. Isn’t it weird though that this happened just after the update?
i agree with mates, sounds to be an hardware problem.
Try to revert to previous /e/ image, but in my mind it won’t change anything.
Yesterday afternoon, without doing anything, the problem solved by itself and now the phone is working fine with the last version of /e/…

Hi to the forum! I tried the last version of /e/ and it is working fine for me too. Some minor bugs (bliss crasshing sometimes, etc.) but otherwise it’s really great, works completely fine.
I wonder: Could someone please make an /e/ splash screen? As it’s fairly simple for Nexus 5 and 5x. Here is how to do it:
Works for other projects too: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1723/replacement-for-splash-images-nexus-5
It’s basically about having the images for /e/ (I’d love to have a black image with a simple white lightning e as it is seen after splash already).
Does nobody care about the splash screen?
It’s not easy to find e related images. I suppose e is sort of a silly name in this respect as it’s a copycat of the i and g things but you cannot search for relevant terms. How could I find something like an e wallpaper? eelo was better, you could have changed it to something like e=mc2 or anything searchable.
please, kalm down
