Okay, viewing my own attachment picture from my computer right now and it looks nothing wrong :crying:. So this is screen problem, not the display, so screen capture is useless...

Try taking a picture of the screen with a camera.

Are you meaning like an image retention issue (where previous screens are still "showing through" what's currently being displayed?
(For example, you'd see a faint image of your homescreen when in the Settings panel)

Sorry for the late reply, been too worried about not able to get my RMA...

I did try to take some pictures with my phone camera, but the screen had too much reflection that it's hard to tell from the pictures.
However, I did found Androidpolice had a good report on it with same issue and they were having hard time taking the pictures too

Yes, I believe is the retention issue and worse. My screen got worse each day before RMA came. Screen is pretty much in a VERY BRIGHT LIGHT ( I wouldn't even call it color white because it's really just shinny light) stage before I even unlock the screen. All the light seems to begin to go away after about 10-15 mins of screen use time, then the display will only showing some few "ghost" problem between screen to screen. Maybe this something to do with IPS been too cold? Need a warm start like my old car? lol..j/k
I did made a video of it on that first night it happen, hopefully it will provide some kind of idea how it looks like.

So I called Google on 7/29 for RMA, and got my replacement on 8/2. So far crossing my finger on the second Nexus 7 from Google.....Thanks.

[Q] Auto Clicking

Hi Guys,
This issue has been really p*****g me off over the last two days... so, would reapply appreciate any help on this...
Yesterday or day before, I was just scrolling through the menus of the phone and decided to do a horizontal calibration (i've never done this since the getting the phone about two months back).
Settings > Display > Horizontal Calibration
And ever since I did the calibration, the screen has been really screwing up with me. Basically, what happens is that, a certain area of the screen gets automatically clicked!! This happens to a specific area of the screen. For example, when I get to the home screen from the app drawer, the widget that I normally have in this area gets clicked on for no apparent reason, and then I have to hit the back key to get back to the home screen. This happens about 5 times and then seems to go away for a while. However, it happens all over again when I use the phone after a little while.

}
In the attached screen capture of my home screen, I have highlighted the area of the screen where this happens in red. This happens not only from the home screen, but from within any open app as well.... For example, when I view the "my apps" section in the Android Market app, the app that happens to be listed in the above area get automatically selected!!!
I have re-calibrated the screen, re-started the phone and the only thing I've left to do is a hard reset. I'm not too keen on doing this as I don't fancy having to re-install 70+ apps all over again!!
Have any of you guys encountered anything like this ?
Would really really appreciate any help on this as this is really flipping me over!!
Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
anyone......?
cmon, am I da first one on XDA to experience this issue?

[Q] Auto Clicking - Sorted
ah! no replied at all!!!
neways, finally got this sorted by having the screen replaced!! luckily the phone is still under warranty... otherwise it would hav cost me around 250$ to get it done apparently (according to the service center guy who did it)!!
tried hard resetting, data+cache wipe and even flashed with a different ROM (darky's).... but nothing worked.... so, finally took it to the service center... luckily those people didn't notice that the phone has been rooted and all that plus, got a gud rappo with one of the technicians over there, so got it back the next day as well....
cheers.....

It is normal when wake up.
nobody ? ??
increase your brightness ?
it is not solve problem when i increase brightness.
it has red colour background, i can set many colours but can not set white colour. Maybe the back-lit change from white to red.
Are you using a custom face? if so, change to one of the built-in watch faces from LG, or just try a few different watch faces in general and see what happens.
I'm not sure (because I don't know what watchface you're using) but it definitely looks like your screen is defective.
Now, the screen is death
I have nearly the same problem. It's been this way for about three months. I did a factory reset three times. The screen looks fine in normal mode, but when it dims, it flashes the dimmed color for half a second, then dims dark to red. Mine appears darker. I can't see it in the daylight at all.
mine just started the same thing :/ do i need a new smartwatch ALREADY?
kay so its gotten much worse, it seems to be caused by not enough power tothe screen, it seems to get worse when it attempts white
Hi,
Can we have more informations please ??
like : did you used Stock Watchfaces, if not which one before the problem etc...
just got it back from LG, the note says:
replacement case
replacement ic/pa/filter
does anyone know what that means?
How do we get service on this watch? I can't take it back to the original store because it was in another state and I'm tired of living with it this way. Thanks
call LG in your state and winge.. it worked for me
btw my watch JUST started bugging out again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AeJ6c65lOo

AOD screen burn possibility

Hello All,
I have bought last days a galaxy note 8 snapdragon version, but i have seen a bug (maybe is not a bug) that when using AOD enabled with infinity effect enabled (blue theme) screen on aod stays blue with stars on top and after one minute it goes completely black and shows stars and clock only, that i love it... but when phone is charging and aod enabled, the infiniy effect on aod stays always blue on top of the screen and not black with stars only. Well im wondering if is there a possibility of screen burn from static blue color for all over the night if phone stays all night in charge?
Please Note 8 USERS check and reply if you have the same problem.
Dont ask me to turn off infinity wallpaper or aod bcs i like it and i want to use it, also i am all day out so i must charge the phone over night.
Pic attached.

If you do this regularly, yes it will burn the screen. Your top part the screen will be slightly greener (yellow-red) by burning the blue rapidly.
I do not think it will damage the screen, to the naked eye it looks static, but AOD does shift pixels, to avoid this
@xda_rosh is there any way to fix it?
@winol but why it is black in normal use and blue when charging?
Anyone with Note 8 if have the same problem?
Having the AOD numbers ON is not a problem as they move around a bit. But blue gradient definitely will ruin you display. I can guarantee that. My first Note 8 came one side little brighter (blue-white). I purposely made a blue gradient and left the screen on at high brightness a couple of night. It made the screen bit even by burning that side a bit.
The strange thing is that even the samsung agents that i spoke knew nothing about this.
Is very anoying that we cant use AOD because colored theme applied to AOD will burn the screen

Lost the wide angle camera button

I'm not sure if this was a side effect of the MIUI 11 update, but I've now lost the button to enable the wide angle camera.
Previously, I could see it near the shooting options, when the Photo mode was selected, but not anymore.
I also can't find the option on the camera settings.
Anyone with the same issue?
on the screen it has dots either side of the x1, it's the left hand one of those 3 dots, the x1, x2 etc...the left hand one 0.6 ultra wide
this was in normal photo mode

That's the thing, nothing is showing, not even the zoom.
Here's a screenshot:

i've tried all combo's to get rid of the zoom, the only thing that did was swapping it to macro...have you tried to restore to default in the settings?
There's something wrong since it's not the expected interface.
There should be a "live picture" icon just before the "star" icon.
Probably a bootleg rom or apk.
@mods Close the thread please.
Finally managed to get the icon, had to clear all data for the Camera App. That was very weird ?
Thanks everyone for the replies!

i'm running stock and have no "Live Picture"
I cleared data, finally got the point 6 wide, which is supposed to be wide.
However, it is not nearly as wide as before the update. I no longer can get a picture of the typical house when standing in front. Sides are now cut off. Placebo, for those that think this is wide angle, anymore.

Question Gallery app missing face editing features as on previous One UI?

Hi. Just noticed on my S21 Ultra I don't have the 'face' icon in my gallery app after you click edit (the pencil icon). On One UI 2 it used to have a face icon at the bottom where if you selected it, you could remove blemishes, red eye, etc - I think it was called a 'spot fixer'. Has this been removed now on one UI 3.1? It was only launched as an update in April 2020 from doing a Google on it. Have attached a pic showing it next to the T icon on the toolbar.

In photo editing mode, just keep on sliding from left to right on the option bar and you will find the face icon with all options including spot remover (blemish).

Thanks for the reply. I definitely don't have this on my S21, do you? From left to right in photo editing mode I have crop, filters, brightness/contract etc adjustments, emoji, drawing tool, and finally text option - i have seen examples (like the one I posted in my original message) the face icon after the text option, but this doesn't appear on mine. So, I guess is it just mine or does anyone else's S21 have it missing too?
Just to add a friend of mine has a Note 10 on One UI 3 and the face icon is not there either, but it was on One UI 2, so it looks as if this has been removed (for some reason) unless anyone can say any different.
have it on mine. obviously make sure there is a recognizable face in the pic, otherwise it doesnt show.

Yeah you're right, just tried taking a new selfie and its there, but it doesn't show on certain other pics (even if the face is clearly visible, and in fact the face is the the main part of the photo).... but ok, I appreciate your help.
is someone actually using the photo editor from the initial software? omg, I usually download some apps to make my photos look beautiful
