Try a screen trainer (or whatever they're called) to see if it's stuck pixels before you return it. But yeah, I totally understand. I can't stand them once I've spotted them; it looks like you got a few of them too.

Yikes. That sucks man. No problems here, on two N7's (I scrutinized both at max brightness as I'm a paranoid type). Take it back, get another!

And here we go with this crap. Never change XDA.

This isn't going in a dark room and turning up the brightness to look for light bleed; dead pixels really are an annoyance, especially when you've got four or five.

Dead pixels drive me crazy... I've always been anal about my screens. I would still try a screen fix app though before I would exchange.

time to contact google!

I've counted five problem pixels on mine. You can only notice it on a black screen. They have a very tiny whiteness to them. I think I can live with it though.

I too have a few bright pixels. I also of a dark spot under the glass between the screen... guess I will be exchanging mine as well

Well this has me worried

I wouldn't worry too much. Out of thousands of each make and model of device there's always bound to be a few with issues. I'm looking forward to my Nexus 7 arriving soon hopefully.

that's too bad.

I was going to put my xoskin on right before I started messing with it. But now I guess I'll have to check everything before

Did you get it from the playstore? If not, Google will tell you to take it back to where you bought it from and get it exchanged there.

What can be seen cannot be unseen
I had mine delivered about 2 hours ago and right up until now I haven't noticed anything.
After seeing this thread I thought I'd check and whilst I only have one stuck pixel (white colour) and it's not in a particularly noticeable location, it's all I can see!
I guess I'll RMA it and I'm glad I can wait until the new one gets to me before sending this one away. Especially after the 3 week wait for it.

I was nervous this would happen with mine but my screen is pretty much fine. Had a little bit of the screen lift but I loosened all the screws and then tightened them and now it seems fine.

Mine's worse.
I have at least 40, and some of them are really bad. My first one had a defective battery. Quality control, what's that?

you've had 40 Nexus 7s?!

Slight Design Change in RMA Nexus 4

I have one of the original N4's when they were released, yellow screen and defective charger. I got an RMA N4 and it looks like they added little nubs to the bottom. Just an FYI

What hardware revision? Boot in bootloader mode and give us the infoz!

It's nothing major. But the back plate can somewhat be more easier to remove.

And which country?

Interesting touch, and very smart actually given how many people had their backs crack just from temperature variations on whatever surface they put their Nexus 4 down on. Hopefully that lifts the glass off any surface a bit. Flip side is that looks like it'd be a fitment problem for most cases on the market already.

It's not to cool down the glass, is to keep free the sound from the speaker that was getting blocked when you had the device on a flat surface.

They probably have a whole variety of reasons. IMO raising the speaker off flat surfaces would be a perfectly good reason because it's completely muffled when you put the phone down on its back. They wouldn't change the hardware just for that, but it'd certainly help.

That minor change could affect some cases. Well, maybe not.

Nope, that's the torque screw on the bottom of the phone. It just looks quite big in the photo.

I have hardware rev. 11 and don't have that on mine!!

Torx screw you mean.
And going back on topic, if the phone is flat on the table the gap could increase air flow for better cooling and increase the volume too.

Its REV 11, Production date 02/2013 made in Korea. i'm in the US and It still fits perfectly fine in the LG Bumper. The photo is little confusing it was taken with my original N4 with a macro lens. the hole is the torx screw on the bottom.

Awesome! I ordered an RMA last night, should be receiving it sometime this week.
My Nexus 4 died on me Sunday night. Red light of death

Watch as dozens of people cry about their phones not having this, and then come up with excuses why they need to rma their device.

Bubbles under the touchscreen

Today, I saw this under the touchscreen. It looks like some dust or air bubbles, which are under the touch area, situated directly above the Tegra 3 CPU so can it have something to do with the heat, which come from the cpu? The phone is 1 month old (bought 21/3/2013). I'm sending the phone to reclamation (and want new piece), but I'm afraid that this can happen again.
Have anyone same problem?

The same problem ，open the screen，similar mold,not dust，
Corroded screen,

I had the same thing on a smaller scale, but it turned out it was just a bit of dirt that formed there...Took the phone apart and cleaned the glass. Everything is fine now!

What about the warranty?

I found also topic about this problem on german LG forum, the topic have about 85 pages!!

i have the same issue, but only one bubble, and it was there the day i bought it. i was too lazy to wait for a replacer, so i just stuck with mine, since it's only visible if you're really looking for it.

I don't think they would have noticed if I had been a bit more careful. They use Philips head screws and no "VOID" stickers.
I actually kinda scratched the glass on the inside

Wow thats sucks guys, if any has or is gonna send it in with an unlocked bootloader i wonder if they will fix it. If any of these manufacturers would honor their warranties for non-software related issues with unlocked bootloaders id stick with them regardless.

I have the same problem, I am do not have official support from LG in my country
Someone has a tutorial in order to clean/remove this bubbles?

Why are you running nekkid? That's askin for trouble...

Maybe you should invest in a case rather than keep smashing your phones up

I wouldn't take my phone out of my carpeted living room until I put a screenie and a case on it. Especially the nexus... Its so inexpensive compared to top end devices that u can use that savings on some protection.

That was a rather stupid comment don't you think? "y you keep two phones with you???". No, that's my sisters phone as I asked her to take a picture of mine, obviously.

You're on a development forum. There's so many people here that carry 2 phones. I'm one of them since my iPhone 5 is a work phone. I figured it wasn't your phone though that's why I said "she" knows to put a case on it.

A few weeks ago i was getting changed after football and forgot my phone was in my jeans, so after picking them up it fell out and dropped to the concrete. Those few seconds where time stops and you dread looking at it, then reaching down in what feels like slow motion...
Turns out it landed on the corner and just a slight unnoticeable scratch on the edge. Phew.

How waterproof is the GWR?

Hey guys, I'm just wondering how waterproof the GWR actually is. What kind of stuff have you done with it? Shower? Swim? Dive?
I try to not wet it at all! I have splashed it a few times and got concerned so was wondering if I'm being a bit pedantic...
PS, I know its ip67...

I been on the swimming Pool for a few times and its still working. I can say that its waterproof from experience. Notice that when i was swimming the water would cause virtual touches to the watch.
Enviado do meu A0001 através de Tapatalk

I have forgotten to remove it in the shower a heap of times. You remember when it gives you a buzz as the screen gets wet. I also went snorkeling in the ocean once with it on. Went about 1 metre down before realising. Watch is still good. I would not be too worried about splashes or rain to be honest.

What about the standard leather band? Can it survive a shower?

I think that the standard leather band will quite quickly start looking a bit ratty. Mine looked old after about a month so I replaced it.

Any tips about a nice replacement band?

I got that one in the photos off ebay. Rubber with clasp. Very cheap and the quality is what you would expect from the price. I'm not unhappy with it though. I now want a nice stainless steel band to go with the polished watch.

Its water resistance.
I take it into my shower everyday and i've had no problems but one thing, your watch will turn on and go to app menu and things like that, but a little dry after shower will make it fine. no damage whatsoever received.

You can also use an app like showear to quickly lock your screen when you take it to shower with. That way it prevents the water from opening up random apps
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

I try in shower, pool, sauna, lake and sea. Still works I use lock screen or "theater mode"

Went to cancun with mine on. Went swimming in the pool and ocean. Had one scare one night at the pool where the screen turned off but came back on when I powered it back up

I'm also very careful not to splash my smartwatch, but I have a friend who take shower with his G watch every day for more than 1 year, and no problem at all so far.

You don't need an app like showear; clicking the power button twice puts the watch in theater mode, so the only way to wake the device up is by pushing the button, i.e. the water won't do anything to the screen at all.
