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
http://www.psp-vault.com/modules.php?name=UpDownload&req=getit&lid=355
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.

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?
All my screen burn in complains started with LPY ICS. Suddenly I noticed bluish color in place of status bar(top of screen) while reading web on landscape.
Later, it change to situation like on screen test status bar location seems to giving best color. Rest of the screen has yellowish tint now.
So my screen is acting weird or getting broken. Anyone else has this issue?
I want to go back to GB, but I am afraid to brick. If go back to GB, should I choose non wipe GB for mobile odin?
I have CF-Root LPY kernel.

Screen Burning?? This is kind of hard to believe, at least that ICS is causing the problem when there is a lot of people on ICS now with no problems like that. Just a defected phone probably and you should try to return it to Samsung if you have a warranty.
But, I would recommend using PC Odin to go back to GB.

It's not a defect, it's just an unfortunate side effect of AMOLED screens.
This is discussed extensively on XDA, particularly in the I9100 forum.
Your best solutions are preventative ones, use a launcher to hide the status bar, leave screen on minimum brightness, avoid leaving the screen on for excessive periods with still images and try not to leave it in direct sunlight (on or off) because this damages them too.
To be more correct, this is actually not burn in, it's the organic LEDs wearing out, the longer they are lit for the more they wear out over time and the less bright they become. Because status bar is black, they get used least and so end up brighter or tinted, and pixels used most (clock area or lock screen circles) get dimmer.

I was on fully stock LPY and I noticed almost the same thing. What appeared to be dead pixels in the shape of one blue dot and one red dot formed on my screen. Though only visible when the screen was OFF for some reason. Anyhow. I flashed back to LC1 stock odexed rom via pc odin and my screen was back to perfection. Well, if you disregard the black clipping issue

Yes, I think it is as you said. Screen colors dimmed. But, I bought this 6 months ago. It should be a defect. Your suggestions should be valid to use the phone for years without problem.

Not exactly, I remember a member of the SGS2 forum uploading photos of he's screen after using something called coyote, some sord of car navigation, after regular daily use for a couple weeks it had caused noticeable wear in his screen.
Static images are bad for these screens if you have a lot of screen on time, the most affected will be your statuary because it's almost always off (black) so it'll be brighter than the rest.

Everyday 1-2 hours I am on Google Reader and Browser with white background. But, I still think that screen should be defective to wear off in 6 months.
Currently, I use black background
I think it should be under warranty. When I am not lazy or screen gets worse, I will format my phone to original ROM. Then, go to samsung.
I got the same burn in on my Nexus. Just returned it for repair. Reading about all these problems with super amoled screens makes me wanna change for a other phone since it seems to be a common problem.
If a screen replacement doesn't fix it permanently, i hope I can get an other brand without amoled. Just not okay to have these kind of defects.
Hey guys,
This thread is not about the camera taking photos with banding lines, instead about the actual display.
Does anyone have vertical banding lines most notorious when displaying a full grey screen in low brightness.
I've read the verge review and seems to have some banding as well, anyone as well? Thinking about replacing it for a third time.

Yes, I rarely get this issue. I captured a screen shot one day just in case, not sure how well it shows up, but look in the middle lower portion of the screen. Almost like a clock hand pointing at 6 o'clock.

You can't take a screenshot to see the problem. Its a hardware issue therefore you can only use an externeal photo of the screen. Check on grey full color screen. I think I will not replace it, I may risk on another issue..

Yeah, I had not planned on replacing mine either. I so infrequently see it, and even when I do, it really does not impact anything. I was not aware it was a hardware issue, seems there could be a bug fix for problem then.

Its funny cause the band shows up in the screen shot on my phone, but probably because the conditions are right, not cause its actually in the pic.
Vertical lines are something you should replace your phone for. Horizontal lines like in the screenshot is just the banding of the colors and happens on every single stock android phone because it's apart of the software

Could u check through a full grey background whether ur greyd are fully consistente? I mean there no faint lines whatsoever. Perhaps ur phone is the same as mine and u have not realized it given that it seems to be fairly normal with amoled displays
I was just about to post about this very issue. I created a quick image to show everyone what the issue is. The lines are not as drastic as I made them look, but it should give you the idea of what it looks like on the screen.

No. That is not the issue we are speaking about. The issue we are referring to is VERTICAL and only appears on greyish/black screens, like the settings screen. The horizontal lines are normal for this phone.

Precisely. You can't really use self screenshots to see this problem I'm talking about. Its about the amoled itself having these vertical banding lines(canvas-like strokes). Open Facebook and tap the search button and tap on the search bar without actually writing any name. Tap down the keyboard. For me the deep blue background has the most prominent banding lines for me. I have one week to think whether I should replace it. If everybody actually have these lines and NOT a solid color on full greys or deep blue I won't replace it.
PS. TheVerge moto x review says that it also have some banding lines on grays. I'd be great if you guys could check ur screens like I just explained. Hope I explain it well
Damn amoled!
Someone with the problem should post a sample pic/screen shot so others can download it and attempt to see the problem.
Just download a color test app that makes ur whole screen of a determined color. Put it on grey and check whether ur whole Grey screen doesn't have any vertical line banding. In case it doesn't have any of these lines, please let me know.
If it does have banding, take a screenshot and see it on ur computer monitor and see how the Grey should be displayed(full solid grey without lines)
I don't care enough to install an app, checking out a screen shot is quick and easy.
Took a photo with my tablet. These are the lines im talking about.
Also use the screenshot so u can check whether u have the same problem.
With the screen shot downloaded and displayed on my Moto X I can detect no banding of any kind. I tried it in dim and bright light. Screen brightness is set to auto so it did adjust with ambient light. Maybe I would see it if I manually cranked brightness to max.

Thank you, so my case is a defect, a third replacement will happen I guess. Great phone nevertheless.
It is possible it is something that was fixed going from 4.2.2 to 4.4.x, seems unlikely though. I notice you are on 4.2.2. I am on 4.4.2.
Impossible, my issue is definetively not software related but hardware related. When I see this screen shot on an LCD based device like my PC monitor, no banding is present. After all the pointless investigation this issue is sometimes present on amoled devices like the galaxy nexus.
I think a lot of us have had our phone for about a month now, and this is my second OLED phone so I know how to treat it with more care in comparison to my old Moto Z Force. (look in the attachments ( :silly: ) [Ignore the cracks, they're on the glass screen protector, not the phone itself]
But, so far I haven't gotten any screen burn I on my Note 9 (I use an app called White to check it). I use about 50-60% brightness throughout the day and sometimes a little more during gaming and watching videos, an SOT of 30 secs, AOD is activated, so far so good.
What about everyone else?
Hey there .
You shouldn't check for screen burn in with this blue image
Try this dark green picture I will upload (use full screen brightness)
Or this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oledtools
I've noticed some strange pattern on my phone not sure if screen burn in or faulty oled panel
I'll have an eye on it
None here had since release but then again I run full immersive mode so that always helps
One month old note 9 it's a shame
And I have no clue why
None of my apps have such an layout
Screen off time is 15 seconds and after I had screen burn in on my s8 I was really careful on my note
But I have to admit I am really not sure if this is really screen burn in or maybe structure stuff of the phone or the panel
I opened every app and I have no app that have this layout or anywhere close to it

Yeah that burn-in looks insanely weird, assuming if it even is burn in. I tried OLED tools and didn't notice any burn in on my panel there either thankfully, however I did try your dark green image on my phone and even at 100% brightness the picture looks black.
EDIT: Okay you're supposed to look at this in COMPLETE darkness, and I do see the green on my phone now, and from the looks of things I still don't see anything in particular burned into my panel. Though, is the picture supposed to be darker at the bottom than it is at the top?

Sorry should have told you have to look at it in complete darkness
And nope the image should be everywhere the same green
Should be a slight green so the green pixels are just turned on a little bit
You should check the app I posted in the first post it's very useful to check for burn in or any other stuff maybe you can also post results j am really curious

Well, oddly enough the green image is a "bright" green at the top of my phone and gradually fades to black toward the bottom, but this isn't anything I can see in any other program I use. I used OLED tools but it seems to just be an app to swap through colors? I can do that using White

Yeah for me this pattern thing is also not visible (ATM I wish I never looked for this thread )only if you really "want" to see it
No no oled tools offers you different stuff in the main menu the first one it the one to test the panel
In this mode you can swipe to change the "brightness" of the color/pixels
And single tap shows a button to change color
Edit: so for me only the green pixels have this weird pattern blue and red are fine
My note 8 has some burn in ghosting from watching YouTube in non landscape mode. It's not horrible but its there for sure. Going to try to be a little more careful this time around. Also you tube didnt uave a dark mode until recently either. Not sure if dark mode will help

What kind of burn in you gout from YouTube ? Like where the video is or the down below ?
Cause I thought about that a few times and my s8 kind of stated that
Using black theme or so gives you kind of reverse screen burn in
So the part that is black wont burn in for sure but the other pixels that are on those are aging faster then those that are off because of black
So you will see that after a time
Call me crazy here but that's what my s8 had
I had black navbar and at the end the navbar was like reversed burned in because those pixels were not that often used then the other ones
That's what ive noticed
Ify theory is wrong correct me

One month old note 9 it's a shame
And I have no clue why
None of my apps have such an layout
Screen off time is 15 seconds and after I had screen burn in on my s8 I was really careful on my note
But I have to admit I am really not sure if this is really screen burn in or maybe structure stuff of the phone or the panel
I opened every app and I have no app that have this layout or anywhere close to it

I have this very same weird pattern visible on dark screens on my Note 9. Must be the panel or something else behind the screen. Thought I was the only one, but apparently not... Not sure what's going on.

I would really like to know what's causing this. My phone is also only a month old. This device is too expensive to have this kind of issue with the screen this early. What's weird is that I noticed it several days ago but then apparently it went away, but came back today.
I'm stumped.

If this is affecting several users and their devices, then Samsung has a defective screen on their hands and needs to be made aware it! Please guys, let me know your findings and/or solutions to this. I can't see it at all on white or brightly colored screens. Only on certain dark ones.

So confirmed I am not the only one
Could you also post pictures of your screen like I did ? Would be interesting
These windows is where is most noticeable. Also has a very faint line under the top video box
I experienced burn-in on my Note 8 and S7 edge. Both were caused from a combination of having auto brightness enabled, along with heavy usage of YouTube while on my daily drives. I would have my phone attached to a car mount sitting on the air vents. While driving, the different lighting angles of the day would cause my screen to trigger daylight mode. I found out the hard way, that long periods of daylight mode watching videos was creating a burn-in on my screen. With this being a common problem, you would think that Samsung would consider this problem by allowing users more control on adjusting the daylight mode settings a bit more. Since then, I'm currently using "Screen Brightness Control(F-Lux)" to auto maintain a screen brightness between 35% - 70%. So far no burn-in on my note 9.
I've used the OLED tools and other tools to check burn in and it seems that i don't have any burn-in whatsoever, not even on the more used areas like the nav bar or notification bar. I use a system wide Amoled black theme that i created from the ThemeGalaxy app. I frequently run in fullscreen mode (or atleast try to) with a transparent nav bar with translucent icons. I typically have my brightness in the mid to high range but rarely full brightness. Even my most frequent used apps and system apps are completely black for the background and i use Vanced Youtube for the Amoled black background. Hope this helps for those that want to slow screen burn-in.
Today I am really just confused ?
Yesterday I showed you this dot pattern in my screen specials on the green pixels
Today thought like "take another look"
And it's gone
Everything is working like it should be
I have no clue why
Didn't change anything (only thing that comes to mind first is battery charge I will have a look again later)
But it's just gone
no dots nothing at all
Someone in this thread also said it disappeared and comes back
So let's investigate what's causing it

Yep, mine has done the very same thing. I think it has to do with when the phone gets hot and the water cooling system is activated... but that's just a wild guess. Will take many who are having the same issue to investigate and test it out.
This thread reminded me to shift my desktop icons around.
I had burn in on my previous Note 8 that had them stuck on the main screen.
Possibly a combination of Auto Brightness and Super Crazy Outside Brightness.
- Which I just remembered to turn off.
So...Keep your eyes OPEN!

As far as I know there is nothing to be activated with water cooling
This super carbon water cooling thing is just marketing bull**** ?
The note 9 have a noticeable bigger heat pipe than other phones and that's all
No real magic (search on YouTube "note 9 Jerry")
Yesterday I took the pictures with low battery state so I will drain battery now to the same amount and check
And also check your heat idea
Let's have a look
Use the displayed tester app by brainstree to check for screen burn in. Especially use the grey #8080 test card color. You can also adjust the brightness level by swiping the up or down . Normally the grey will show defects well.
