I don't have that on my black VIVID...
anyone know what that is ?? is it the ambient sensor for the display light ??
so why it's only shown on the white version ??
Thanks

Yes you do, shine a bright light at the top of the glass, all of the same 'windows' are there.
I think the capsule/rectangle one is the proximity sensor -- an emitter and a receiver to gauge proximity, and the top left dot is the ambient light sensor.

LED Notification?

I have yet to see a video of the HD7 with some kind of LED notification. Anyone know if it has one or not?

The LED notification is located in the top grill (earpiece).
Heres a link showing the LED light on, the light is slightly off centre to the right.
The front on pictures and video clearly show it being on.

Phew good! Thanks for the link.
It only works when you're charging or when the battery is dying. For emails and everything else...you have to unlock the phone.
I'm pretty sure I've noticed it flashing when I've got a missed call

[Q] touch layer of the screen

Hi guys,
can you explain why is the "conductive layer" clearly visible on the Z1 screen ( as relly dense lines at different angles) under some types of light (I've noticed it while sitting in the restaurant under littlehalogen lights)? I've switched from SGS II and there I can't see any lines or dots ( dots were visible in ZTE Blade that I owned before ).
Here's a graphical aid for your senses, it's form iPhone, but I thinks it's more or less the same.

The Z1 comes with a factory "screen protector" and that's probably what you're seeing and not the conductive layer

[Q] Problem With the screen

The touch works well but there are gradient horizontal lines on the screen in the colors brown, blue and black.
Sometimes i see a little bit something (still with the lines), but then it turns again in to just gradient horizontal lines.
(The screen is not broken.)
Thanks.

Here someone had a similar problem. It seem's to be a hardware failure, if your sceen looks like this:

}
So you should probably backup your stuff, flash a stock firmware (if you are on a custom rom) and send it to samsung.
sounds like screen burn in to me, AMOLED displays can suffer with screen burn in which will leave lines or keyboard texts etc left burnt into the screen.

[Q] Do you see noticeable Horizontal Lines across your Z3compact screen?

When looking closely on screen , i can see those noticeable Horizontal lines across the whole screen ,which is really awful .
Especially on mono colors , or some white/grey icons in the notification bar .
Those lines r really annoying , i'm not sure if it's just a defect on my phone , there's a pic taken by Nexus4 to show those awful lines, even such a bad camera on Nexus4 can show out those horizonal lines

So besides the "flash" option w/c is brighter, this is a feature for low light?
Thanks
