Hi guys,
Just bought this wonderfull device but i'm having some question about it. it seems that the right side of the display is less brighter then the left side. I tried a few images but it looks like the lights are just not brighter. I adjust the contrast and on the highest setting the screen seems to be ok .
I have included some pictures, in the last picture it's very noticable. As you can see the left Agenda and the right Contacten, Agenda is really bright Contacten not. What is your idea about it? Do you guys have the same?
See the difference?
The device is brand new 1 day old, can i return it or ask for a new? Thnx for your support...
Many thanks for your feedback!

Is your backlight on full? If not try it and see if you still have this 'issue'
Try to Change the backround.
looks like a pattern of the backround.

If you just got it today does that mean you applied the screen protector today? Sometimes it takes a bit of use to sit flat on the screen and so could give such an effect.

No didn't applied it yet. Thought I wait so I'm able to return it. I will try a few new patterns. But you don't have this problem?

Whenn having it full it seems to be less. When having it on less you really see the difference.

No, just checked mine. I can't say it's obvious from your pics and unfortunately your last pic seems unavailable. If it is darker over the "Contacten" word then I can't see that this is a wallpaper issue, since that is a toolbar.

Hi
I thought this for a small while.
Try turning your screen to landscape, has the slight difference down one side changed with rotation?
If so it is probably just the shading applied to some screens by Microsoft, for example the contacts list and email lists have a colour graduation, white on the left and then a slight blue tint towards the right.
Open up pocket Word, this is a completely white screen, no graduation, do you see the problem now?

hi everyone,
just so to know, how many diamonds owner have a/some dead or stuck pixel on their diamond screen?
last nite, after about a week owning one, i installed a pocketLCD, and found one stuck pixel on my diamond, so sad, trying every way to get rid of it, but to no avail

I also have a (1) dead pixel
yeah I have a "dead" pixel since I upgraded to duttys 1.6 rom. Is it on the top of the screen in the middle?
*update
Ok just tried to use the pixel fix from the psp and the "dead" pixel is still there
ok this is weird, I watched a video or when rebooting with usually videos the pixel that is gone funny is fine. Its only on the main screen it shows up. I used the diamond demo video which has a black background and the pixel is working fine?!?!?! Why is it only a problem with the main screen top bar????
tried different black theme and still there

I too used Dutty's 1.6 and have a missing Pixel right in the middle at the top of the screen but I wouldn't call it a dead pixal as it's only while the task bar is there. If you watch a vid, view a pic, full screen browsing etc the pixel functions fine.

hi viinholland,
where your dead pixel located?
is it dead? or it lights up but won't change color that makes it visible?
hi kidd78,
like Trem said, it's pretty much safe
i too experienced the same thing, i forget what application i was running, but when it shuts, it's gone, hence i don't use the application anymore but i truly forget what it was
darn, my stuck pixel is still there......
i wonder if anyone else got the same dead or stuck pixels on their diamonds....
By the way Gsen puts a blank pixel on your top bar.
You can deselect this on the Gsen config!
If thats your "dead pixel" then ill LoL at you guys!
Maybe you all have the new GSENS 1.7 installed? It places one white pixel at y=0 and x=240 so right in the top middle to indicate that it is running?!

Opps didnt know that thanks for the correction. Sorted it now.
I went through update instead of finding it on the forums. feel shamed such a newbie should of searched first.
yah i am aware of that, gsen gives a look of Hot Pixel rite in the middle on top, but what i got is a hot pixel, or rather stuck, which i don't know, far left of the screen
i wonder how many diamond got the same fate as mine
I got one but it isnt related to Gsen at all because I don't use it. Plus, when I boot up the phone I can see the dead/stuck pixel. Does anyone have a stuck pixel remover program they could share?
here try the psp pixel fix video. All you have to do is play it on full screen think best to leave it for 20-30 secs.
It may fix your problem it may not

here's a little application, to test your LCD
carry this along with anything which is transferrable to other device, to test before you buy, i should have used it, but sometimes i was too lazy, but i make sure i won't next time
Here is a pic of my screen. Definitely not a dead pixel, maybe a stuck one? burn in? Any ideas? The yellow spots on the bottom center and left. They are not visible on dark backgrounds.
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f342/burns959/SPM_A0027.jpg
Any degauss-like programs to refresh the screen?
they are not visible on dark? what do you mean? what makes them most visible?
usually a hot pixel is easily seen on dark background, whereas a dead pixel is on the white or bright background, which are yours?

Look at the pic, his almost looks like it has a burn effect... Not an individual pixel, almost like a section of them are tainted.
Don't push too hard on the touch screen? :-\ Idk, best of luck in fixing it.

They are more like smudges with no clear beginning or end. On white backgrounds they are yellowish (like in the above pic - full screen only- very bottom)
On grey backgrounds (for ex. start up screen) they are white. On a black screen they are not even noticeable. On colors, barely
And as for pushing hard, I didn't even get the chance as it was like that out of the box

It's not dead pixel but a screen failure.
You sure you have no bubbles of air under your screenprotector or have original screenprotector still on it?
from the problem reported, seems as if i am the unlucky one with defective pixel on my screen......
darn, should have brought the pocketlcd tester with me and test it on the spot, but weird is the shop claims each of every diamond got the same pixel problem, is it really that bad?
I just noted (pardon the pun) that there are lines vertical ans horizontal lines when displaying white. This is my second phone. I went back to cpw and changed this one has similar horizontal lines. Its very very very faint, but I can see it. Im not sure why, it is because of the AMOLED screen, how it works?
Very annoyed. what can i do? every phone CPW has cant be faulty?

I've only had mine a day but cant see any lines like you've mentioned... maybe a bad batch they got in? Maybe something to do with the S-pen's digitizer screen, i assume that will have some form of grid to it
AMOLED seems to have weaknesses at low brightness levels.
Some have seen very faint lines .
Also on minimum brightness some reported a faint changing of the hue of the display.
The screen is also very bright (whites) on min brightness.
If you display a greyscale step pattern black is absolute black but
others that should be near black are too bright.
http://www.execulink.com/~impact/docs/utils/StepGray16G.jpg
I think its just the AMOLED tech but check the display thread too.
In normal use the screen is amazing,
all technologies seem to have good and weak points if you look for them.
You are not the only one with this problem. I'm on my third galaxy note now... The first one had dead pixels and the right side was darker than the left side. The second one had much more dark horizontal and vertical lines and smudges. The third one at first had very faint lines and smudges, but it is becoming more visible now. There are several threads about this issue on this forum.. My guess is that these problems are pretty widespread (more or less visible on some gnotes) and that there were some bad batches or that the Amoled technology is the problem. Would love to hear the reason to these issues from Samsung.
No lines on mine. White is white and everything shows up excellent.

If you disable the automatic light control and just snap the backlight up from 0% to anything above, you will not see any grayish things in video on the Note. I don't have this problem, but I've heard that some people have had to do this to solve this issue.
I don't have any bandings or strange lines anywhere on the screen. It looks as good as my Galaxy S II and Galaxy Tab. I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary (considering the limitations of the AMOLED screen).
There have been concerns about the lines on the white though. I don't have any of those on mine, but it seems some screens show up this fault. I don't know how to solve this issue and would recommend returning it as soon as possible.
Using the recommended gray test on the Note didn't show up anything but a solid grey screen on mine, although I've heard much people have dark spots all over. It might be something about where the phone was manufactured, or when.
My Note have never had anything wrong with the screen or anything else. The only problem I've ever had is applications that use 16 bit color instead of the Notes 32 bit. This will make color look strange at times, but it's totally normal.
Note that this isn't something wrong with the hardware, it's merely a software problem that will be solved as soon as ICS is released.

Lines/spots are due to ****ty quality control, this is just a matter of luck.

I have yet to see ANYTHING with more then 65k colors, even in the browser.
All i see is some VERY clever dithering very hard to see due to the high resolution.
Coming from the HD2, I'm really disappointed, nothing gained in 3 years (well, more pixels, so harder to see the flaws).
I took 3 picture with a green gradient:
1) 1280width, so basicly 1280 levels of green, but 24bit only shows 255.
2) 255width, so basicly 255 levels of green, 24bit.
3) 64 width, so basicly 64 levels of green, 16bit.
They all look the same to me, in browser and in gallery. I see dither in each of them. This tell me the whole screen is 16/18 bit only.
Maybe the PenTile is playing tricks with me...
Or the grainy screen lets me think its dithered...
i am facing a similar problem..whenever i apply some photo having a lot of black in it as my lock screen image..there seems to be some horizontal gray lines in it..but when i look in the gallery the black is pure black (no horizontal gray lines at all)...is there any problem in the software only ? or is it something regarding the screen?
hi i am in the uk.. on three network. i got my htc one on the 3rd of april, and 4 days later the screen started to flicker? not all the time? but browsing? esp facebook or anything page with white? i guess the white shows up the flicker more? like i say NOT all the time but soo annoying!! not what i expected from a high end phone? Now let me just say i love this phone.. but thought i cant have this.. so i fill out support form for htc and they reply quick advising me it should not do this and to get it changed. i contact three go through the whole call centre thing (like pulling teeth) anyways the upshot was.. three sent me another brand new phone the next day (yesterday) and took back my first one. And guess what? as soon as i switch the phone on, same screen flicker? i treated the first phone like a new born baby didnt drop or bash it 4 days=screen flicker. another new phone as soon as i use it = screen flicker!! i so love this phone but im so gutted!! any suggestions from ANYONE would help.
kind regards

This isn't helpful but you must just be unlucky to have had it happen twice because mine's been perfect and I've not seen anyone else on this forum mention that problem with theirs.
I guess you'll have to get a new one sent out again and hope for the best :thumbup:

hi.. to be honest i dont think a video would pick the problem up? you know i could just be being a kill joy? ive watched videos etc and there really isnt a problem with that at all.. in fact the quality of the picture is fab? if i could use an analogy? remember when the volume control on your stereo would get dust in it? and you would have to twiddle the knob to cure it? its a bit like that? like i say it does not do it all the time but i notice it with white in the screen? like facebook google and when i am navigating thru the screens on the phone like settings etc? the white flickers white/slightly darker white? hence my example? now ive changed my text messages colour scheme so that doesnt annoy me now with it.. but obviously as a electronics layman.. i cant help but think if it was a problem with the screen itself, other colours would do the same as they would if there was a loose connestion? and also if it was a power flow problem with the battery? same thing? not just the white on screen? so i can only conclude as a layman again.. that it is some sort of issue with the os? screen refresh rate maybe? i just dont know? and i cant help think stupidly or not that when htc finally get around to an os update to 4.2.2 (or whatever it is) from 4.1.2 the whole thing will be resolved?
Could it be the auto brightness doing its thing? Try turning it off maybe that might solve it.
I might be totally wrong, be great if that fixed it though. Good luck
well well well!!!! And there you have it!! or at least something like that? ive always used the multi widgit for wifi bluetooth brightness etc? so i have brightness preset on that. instead ive gone into display settings, adjusted brightness with slider? no more flicker!! NO MORE FLICKER!! who ever you are!! thank you!!!!!!!!!!

Was this happening when the stock power widget brightness was set to medium?
If so, I have the same flickering ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2243483 ), but I've found out that its not the power widgets fault per se, but the the the level that it sets it to. The widget set the brightness to 33%, and that the level which I'm getting flickering at, regardless of if it was set with the power widget or by the slider. The flickering happens on screen with a good amount of white. Google search result webpage is a good test case; it shows the flickering clearly at 33%. It also seems to depend on where the white is on the screen. For example, I can induce flickering at 40% brightness by moving a light colored icon from the bottom of the screen to the top! Moving it back to the bottom causes the flickering to go away. I can also do it by moving around or resizing the Gmail widget. Flickering happens for me to some extent at brightness values between 33 and 45 under certain screen conditions. Above or below these brightness values, the screen is top notch, no endless flickering at all regardless of how much white is on screen. I'm starting to think this has to do with the dynamic contrast feature of the One. It seems as though it falls in an endless loop of trying to change the contrast, as if it cant decide on what to set the contrast to. Or it could be that the dynamic contrast is fighting for a certain brightness value, but the manually set brightness is not allowing it. I might be wrong about this, and it could just be a hardware backlight problem, regardless, I wish HTC had the Sense (ha ha!) to allow us to disable dynamic contrast if we wanted to. I'm pretty sure this is whats causing the issue where people see flickering when the keyboard pops up.
screen issue?
hi..
i had the widget set on the third setting, the fourth being the brightest. i had the same problem with my first phone and thought at the time it may have been a backlight problem? or power flow problem? i sent that phone back and the next phone did the same? after posting on here.. i removed the widget and manually adjusted the brightness. i like the screen quite bright, manual adjustment cleared the problem for me. i gotta say yep the flicker was more visible on screens with alot of white, google, facebook, texts? and way way annoying! i can only suggest you try the same as i did? perhaps it is just a quirk with the htc? or maybe the os? you never know, when the update to keylime or whatever it is called comes out the flicker may go totally?
JUST had this on facebook? hope it helps?

Hello,
I bought my P7 in September and since few week I have a yellow zone in the bottom of my LCD. It's visible when I am on a white area and it's very ugly. I think it's a hardware problem.
Someone else has got the same problem?

On my p6 i had a blue zone on the left site in black areas. I had to replace the display.
I think it's a different problem for me, maybe associated with the backlight. I don't know if it's "normal" or if I am unlucky :/
I think its the same...its a display failure. If its an Software Problem flash new and you will See.
Hardware
Somewhere is written it's the display-glue.
My phone has also a yellow shade at the bottom of the display.
Just google it...
Up
I am the only one with this problem?
obviously
Maybe some more people have the same issue, but thy now how to use googoogle......
Aegliyen: Yes, I have this problem too. And this problem reports more users.
Unfortunately, Huawei says: that it's okay
I think that's a manufacturing defect.
I have the same problem. It is noticeable when I try to read in the dark. Is there any solution or do we have to live with it?
From what I read, if it is the glue then it might clear out after a few days of leaving the brightness on to full.
Sent from my HUAWEI P7-L10 using XDA Free mobile app
Me I can see the problem even I am not in the dark and my brightness is set on auto The yellow band take two cm of my screen... I found a solution on the Play Store but it's not perfect : Screen Equalizer. With this app you can add a blue band on the yellow to hide the problem but there are some problems with the navigation bar. It will be good if Huawei solve that with a software solution integrated in the ROM.
If it's a problem with the glue looking like the One Plus One maybe we can resolve it with some UV...
