[Q] Dead pixels! - LG Optimus 4X HD

Did anybody had problem with dead pixels? I bought my phone 10 days ago and last friday i notice 4 pixel dots glowing blue. I dont know lg policy about this problem because i want to return my phone and get another one.

Lg makes a lot of tv`s
Their proudness would be hurt, send it in on warranty...

I got 2 dead pixels as well. But it is not noticeable unless you load a black screen. So LG refuses to repair nor replace my phone. Smh

[Q] Screenproblem: annyoing white sports

Hi
I baught the LG Optimus 2x a few days ago and rooting and everything was no big deal but now I have these white sports around the top left and right corner and the bottom right corner. Everything else is working fine.
I read about the problem in a german blog but it was just if ppl could live with it or not and no awnsers. Its not a softwareproblem as far as i know its a hardware problem.
So my question is: Is this a general problem with this device or did I just get a 'bad one'?
Does anyone else have this problem?
Im thinking of giving back the phone and ordering it again but I fear it will just have the same problem again.
Any help is appreciated. Thx
Its a common problem.
Its the backlight thats too bright to "hide" with black pixels..
On most devices it a matter of more or less of this bleeding.
Try to decrease screenbrightness

still have the problem even when its not as bright but thx for the help.
if its a common problem i wont have any luck will i getting a phone without this problem?
I like the phone its fast and everthing but the spots just jump to my eye everytime i use it. THATS NO FUN
i dont notice any whit spots on my device unless its completely dark, a black background is present and the brightnes is really high, then i notice that some corners are slightly brighter but in normal conditions i dont see anything.
so i think there is a good chance that you get one without strong bleeding.

+1 I haven't got that problem. Specially my 2X is one of those first batches.

broken camera and 2 dead pixels out of the box

I received my shipment today.
The very first thing I did after signing in was update the system to 4.1.1.
After playing for a few minutes I noticed a dead or stuck pixel on the right side of the screen. I ran the display test app and found another dead pixel in the middle of the screen.
I tried the camera with Google hangouts and Skype and all I get is garbled green signal. Using the nexus 7 camera launched yielded the same result.
Doing a full factory reset did not fix the problems.
Needless to say this going back. I'm disappointed that this excellent device is having these quality issues.
I have a single dead pixel on the very edge. It's only visible on a completely black screen so I'm gonna live with it.
Good luck with your return.

I would recommend you get it exchanged. At the end of the day its still a defect. Maybe wait a little while so they have more stock to ship another one.

Stuck-Dead Pixels

This is an open poll for everyone, share your experience with those nasty pixels, you got one? Two? More? None? :fingers-crossed:
No dead pixels here. But with such high PPI, i think it might be hard to notice a single bad pixel.
None that I can see.
None for me also very happy.
I got one and it's going back as soon as they have more in stock..

Another quick way to ensure that your screen is ok is the service menu,
directly from the dialer press:
*#*#7378423#*#*
then under the "service tests" choose "display" and tap on the screen,
the stuck pixels can be found easily on black and white screen tests.

The Z; the phone that keeps on giving Next poll:

2 Z's both with dead pixels. The guy in the store was really patronising earlier. Will visit him again tomorrow!

Very important ! --> Check it on FULL brightness , a pixel mistake shows then only .....
Use Dead Pixel Test (UJACHA) app from Plays Store.
I test 2 xperia z with 2 bright pixel on each phone until the third one with none.
The best way to test it is by looking at the start up screen when it was black and bright. You may have to restart the phone many times to make sure.
Sony screen looks very nice but always have the bright pixel problem. I encountered the same thing when I purchased the first Sony Xperia S. Always got these with Japanese phone.

Well, I thought that my XZ had one dead pixel, but after closer examination, I'm sure it's a screen protector manufacturing flaw. When you look at it straight farward it looks like a black pixel, but when you look at an angle, that the light reflects from the surface this dot starts to shine. It' s like a piece of glitter embeded in screen protector :/

"Normal"
are you kidding me?
wtf is with the tech world now...
Just took my Z back to cpw. New one will be delivered on Tuesday. Fingers crossed for no dead pixels! !
What I did notice though is that my first 3 Z's had no seals on the boxes. Yesterday cpw had some more that were factory sealed. Must be a different batch. The Z is sellung like hotcakes as they were out of stock today.
Dead pixels is a trivial matter and most people wouldnt even notice. But they stand out like a saw thumb to me and irritate the hell out of me.
To check... use dull brightess, turn off adaptive lighting and useba black image

Has anyine noticed dead pixel.

I have got my phone for a few days and just realise today that there are a couple of dead pixel.
They are very difficult to spot but at first I noticed one bright pixel, so I downloaded an app to check. At the end I found two in total, one dead ine bright.
A bit annoying to know they are there but its not too bad...
Hmm
Just want to know any if you guys got the same problem?

I dont have G-Flex yet, but on my old Galaxy S, I was able to calibrate the screen with an app called voodoo color. I hope there is a screen adjuster app for the G-flex too or i hope ther will be
I dont have the blu tint anymore ever since the kk update

Never noticed it when i had jb but there were some users that had it and exchanged their phones. I guess there is a handfull out there. Might want to look at the early threads.

I have a LG G Flex and my screen has the blue tint. It is especially noticeable on the top part of the screen and is blotchy blue. The bluish tint goes along the top of screen towards the right of screen about a quarter way down . Other than the bluish blotchy area I described ,the rest of the screen is white.
My phone is set at 50% brightness. At 100% brightness the blueish tint isn't as dark and is barely noticeable.
I have read of others having same issue. If you Google it you will read lots of complaints about the bluish tint in different areas of screen from the top to the bottom.
I bought my phone about 7 days ago at Best Buy.
I had upgraded to Android 4.4.2 on At&t. I Had considered possibly exchanging it for another one but I think bluish tint may be normal.

Wow that's strange. I'm absolutely positive that there's a lot of screen variances between these devices. The G Flex on display in my T-Mobile store had an extremely grey look to it, even on 100% brightness. My screen isn't like that, although it's not as white as an LCD, I'm extremely happy with it.
I just took these 2 pictures with my Nexus 5, one with the flash off and another with the flash on.
agreed; I have had 3 gflex's; the first 2 were perfect white screens, no ghosting; my current one is bad, lots of blue tint, and lots of ghosting..
Yours looks way better than mine. I wonder if I should take mine back. I'm worried I might get one that's even worse than my current phone... Thanks for posting the pictures!!?

unfortunately, thats the risk you take; if you are within your "in store" return period, you could go back to the store and check your replacement out before you take it home, but if you are past that time period, its a roll of the dice..
I'm still within the return period. I might return it on Saturday, which will be day 14 of my return period.
It's a shame, I like the phone and have it set up the way I like it.
The Bluish Screen issue is a bit of concern . I don't know what causes it . I don't know if it will worsen or lead to a future total Screen Failure.
I'm a bit disappointed in Lg though.
I believe they need to work on their quality control and testing before they ship out devices that have an obvious screen defect.
Thanks.

Take it back and check the new phone before you swap to see if the white is white.
