I got my O2x a week ago, in the first few days, backlight bleeding wasn't that obvious and it didn't affect me too much, but now its starting to get worse, in what ways can we fix it? Contact LG? Or get a new lcd screen panel and install it?
How does screen bleeding look like?
I have visible light when display is completely black, but it certainly does not bother me. But i can't imagine how technically could it be getting worse - there are simply white LEDs and display, unless you smash the phone, they should be in same position forever
yes quite, i believe screen bleeding can not get worse over time, maybe its just you ?
cuz its nothing like a virus, that spreads.. its a completely mechanical thing that is affected only by force (kinda)
bleeding getting worse?
have you dropped your phone or something?
cause it will only get worse if something happened to your phone that the LCD itself misaligned (can't find the proper word ).
I have no idea but it seems like the whites are a little bit more visible when your booting (or complete black background)

I just got a tilt about a week ago and ive noticed that in the middle of the screen there seems to be a purple greenish tint when put against incandescent light. The size of said glint varies in size but i'm unable to see what changes the size. Not sure if its heat or pressure or something. The touch screen works perfectly its just really annoying to always see such an annoying glint.
An interesting discovery is that when i press all four corners of the screen it disappears and when i press in the middle of the little square it seems to spread out. I feel like theres some kind of material or something in the touch screen that is causing this due to pressure. I keep it in a hard case in my pocket so the screen isnt pressed on inadvertently.
I've searched the forum for any answers but i havent seen anything about it. Any response or help would be greatly appreciated. I'll try to get a picture of it up asap but i left my camera at a friends house and dont know when im getting it back...thanks in advanced

Do you see the same "annoying glint" under neon light (not day / sunlight)?
Lots of NOKIA and SONY ERICSSON phones for example get this screen recolorization under direct sunlight - this has nothing to do with the screen being defective but with the plastic above the screen which breaks the light and shows you this colored spots. If you can't see the same spot under direct neon light then this might be the cause.
It is normal that you get color changes while pressing the screen in. First of, you press / bent the protecting plastic and the liquid within the screen which causes the incoming light to break in a different angle, therefore the color changes. (BTW: you shouldn't do that too often, it can cause permanent stains on your screen!).
There sure is the possibility that your screen gets pressure from underneath due bad assembling! If you're still under warranty, try to get a replacement.
yeah you cant see it in day light. but i feel as though there is constant pressure on the screen between the plastic and liquid since the spot is always there and doesnt really go away (unless of course in daylight).
well im thinking im going to go back for a replacement. thanks for the quick answer!
My Captivate's screen has suddenly gotten much darker than usual. Even at low brightness, the image quality used to be really good and the screen was really sharp. Now, for some reason, it seems to have gotten noticeably darker and duller. Aside from that, the whites seem to be tinted blue. I know this is an existing issue with the Super-AMOLED's so I'm not too worried -- I'm thinking it was probably always tinted and I'm only noticing it now that I'm really looking. The last thing I noticed about the display is a set of odd marks behind the screen; oval-shaped markings slightly to the right of center running from top to bottom and left to right. Anyone know what these are?
Assuming you haven't flashed a kernel with the brightness fix, color fix, etc. you can get the phone exchanged through warranty for display problems. One of ours developed an issue with the tint and clarity and we had it replaced no problem.
Looks as if I'm going to have to join the return game on this device. I've been a very happy TF700 owner on CROMi-X for the last year and still had that WOW effect when I started playing with this tablet.
Until it got dark.... I mean - the attached picture is with the tablet in sleep mode!!!!! That's gotta suck the battery dry like nothing.....
Opened a ticket with Asus for what it's worth...
I'm going to update to 4.3 manually, but don't expect that'll do much.
Does anybody have something similar?
Edit: After about an hour of reading the screen dimmed and had dark shadows on both sides. I flashed the 4.3 update manually since the System Update wouldn't - now everything seems to be fine.
Light bleed gone when in sleep mode and no shadows either... ?????????
Weird, glad you got it sorted out.

Unfortunately it's not resolved to the point that I feel confident to unlock.
I still have have weird and uneven dimming of the screen. Sometimes just part of the screen dims and shows a dark, uneven shadow across it (in reading mode). What I don't understand is, taking a screen shot in that situation shows nothing of the shadow....??
What I consistently see is when the screen times out, it dims just before it turns off, but only on part of the screen (more or less the left half, but fading out from left to right).
Smart Saving is off.. Can't think of anything else to try...
I'd hate to return it, but I think I'll have to - this does not inspire confidence....

Smart saving has nothing to do with smart dimming unfortunately. You can only turn smart dimming off if you are rooted. I'd take it back and get a replacement as what you are seeing is not normal.

Never seen this on any tablet.
To me it seems that some parts of the Led backlight are not working correct or totally not.
Better try to get it swapped or Rma'd ASAP.
R.I.P
I was filling out the Amazon return form and picked it up 'cause I got a notification about new mail - and that's when the digitizer gave up completely.
I was able to wipe my data by hooking it up to the TV and got it to reset with a lot of huntin' and pecking.
A replacement is on it's way. You gotta love Amazon :cyclops:
I have a D5803 that came back from being serviced. The touchscreen went bad, so the whole assembly (screen + sensor) was replaced.
Since you have to almost completely disassembly the phone to get to the screen, I suspect something went wrong during the repair.
The screen is flickering at random. By flickering, imagine a bad fluorescent lamp: you can clearly see the brightness varying vary fast, causing a flicker effect. Also, imagina a CRT screen. The flicker stops when you refresh the screen, like cycling through the home screens of your phone.
The guy who repaired it said it is a bad resistor that controls the current going to the panel's backlight. His excuse is that the board is very thin and fragile and that something might happened during the repair service. He also said that if he tries to do something else, the problem might get worse/something else might break. I suspect the screen installed is not OEM and is of bad quality. Sometimes the screen keeps autopressing as if someone was actually touching the screen, but not. Wiping the screen down on soft clothes (cleaning it) solves the problem. The screen probably doesn't have an oleophobic coating.
So, my question is: Is this guy right or is he lying (trying to push me ****ty parts/service)? How to know?
Also, is it possible to have a slightly smaller sized screen part? Because it feels that the screen area has decreased a bit (bezel increased somewhat). But since I do not use this phone since almost two years ago, I might be imagining things.
hey
has anyone here had issues with their screen - im getting some smudges on the middle right side stretching towards the center of the phone - is a darker smudge most evidently in white/grey/light colours situations or low luminosity
it also has a green hue when seen at an angle
i tried all sorts of troubleshooting but it wont go away - if any - i think its getting worse
i will have to send the phone back for a replacement but am wondering if others have had this issue and is it just me or this year's quality of display is worse than in past years ( i never had issues with the display till this year)
Two words. Amoled lottery.

Nope...clearly a screwed screen. Replace it before Samsung finds a way to put the blame on you...
