After using my Pixel daily for 6 months (got the first batch, pre December 25th) and having next to no issues with it (wifi strength sucks, even with Xceed kernel, but it's better than it was), half of my screen decided it wanted to go goofy. I was using it two days ago and everything was working fine, I used it yesterday morning for a few minutes and then plugged it into the Google charger that came with it and let it sit on my couch for a few hours while it was charging. I got on the bus, and pressed the power button to wake the screen and nothing happened. Thinking I had it turned off I held the power button for a few second, and still nothing. So I held it for 30 seconds and when it brought up the bootloader warning the right side of the screen was glitching, same thing happened on the Google logo, boot animation, and continued into Android. I powered it off, hoping it would go away but it didn't. The slight glitch then turned into static "snow" which will then change sporadically based on what I'm doing on the tablet. That area of the screen still works perfectly because touch input works, and when I take a screenshot and view that area of the screen it shows up just as it should. It seems like there is an overlay on the right side of the screen that won't go away. Since it happens from the moment you turn it on makes me think it's a hardware issue but the fact that the screen itself still works perfectly makes me think it's a software issue. I haven't flashed the stock ROM back on it yet or locked it backup yet since I don't have a type c to type a adapter with me, it's still under warranty but I wanted to see if you guys could help me fix it before I sent it back.
