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.

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?!

Warn Thread

Give people warnings as in something not to do because of personal experience. Like an example would be "Don't touch hot things" and people will know not to do it because 1 other person has done it and it wasn't pleasant. Well in short words. Learn from other's errors.
@Moderators: Looked through a few pages and did a search. And found nothing. If there is another thread like such, don't kill me please.
I'll start:
@eBay users: If it comes from China there will be a huge chance it'll be a ripped off cheap version of what you where expecting.
Why?: Copyright laws in china.

It's true. Trust me. I repair computers for a living.
Also, Don't repair external camera flashes without discharging the capacitor and being properly grounded, unless you like getting shocked by 1000V of electricity and getting knocked back 2 metres and having your heart stopped for 2 seconds.

Turn off all the lights in your house make it as dark as possible. Then ring your phone and look for the flash when it lights up. If it doesn't work go to another room and try again. This is always my last resort strategy before messing up the house looking for it. It's normally in my pants or shirt pocket.

This is why you should use a "Find My Phone"-thingy, so when you do lose it, like now; all you need is to press a button on your computer, and listen for the BEEEEEP (yes, that works in silent mode to)

But seriously, meditate on what you did the hours before you lost it and retrace your steps. Nothing else that hasn't been suggested will help.

Here's a new scenario. How much battery did it have when you lost it x hours ago? May be dead and that means you'll have to find it the old fashioned way.

Nexus 4 - Quick start PDF

LG have uploaded the quick start manual to their website, worth a download if you're planning on buying a Nexus 4, it also shows the device will come in either 8GB or 16 GB versions, no mention of 32 GB yet, maybe we will see another 32 GB upgrade at later date a la Nexus 7.

I'm really hating these leaks. It ruins the excitement. I'm gonna watch the event knowing everything and have nothing to be excited about since I expected it.
Especially Wireless Charging. Last year, Google did a good job keeping tbw Galaxy Nexus Pretty secretive(at least to me since I never fully saw it clearly. Just the pogo side.

I've never used wireless charging before. Are the charging stations universal? Like I wouldn't have to buy new ones for each new phone I buy in the future? Does this also mean I should buy a couple of the old palm ones while they're still cheap? I for one am really excited for wireless charging.

Hi,
Your LG nexus is fine. The internal hardware is built to resist water and a few other dust particles. The flickering you experienced was only because the water was in the way. However keep your phone away from fire, oil based lotions and dropping. Enjoy your Nexus.

Screen Discoloring?

Aiming for that 3500mAh, thinking that I could get a monster battery life out of it, and.... I am being stupid by getting the phone on eBay.
Well, let's say that the screen is fine when the brightness is above 80%. However as soon as the brightness is lower than that, the upper right hand corner of the screen with a radius of 3cm, and partially the whole right side of the screen appears to be blueish. Closer look reveals that the blue pixels are brighter than the rest.
Questions: any solution to that? I found the app "Filter Your Screen" may be helpful, but I only want that part of the screen to be filtered.
I recognize the noisy "filter" of the OLED display, so don't start that on me, I am only looking for a solution or "fix" for that blueish color.

Keep the brightness at 80%?

At the expense of the battery life? It's like taking the material from the east side of your house then fix the west side of the house.

I keep my brightness maxed 90% of the time and I would consider myself a power user. Flex battery life is phenomenal. One of the reasons is because of the screen.

It's long lasting, but I reckon if the brightness can be lower without compromising the battery life AND without the discoloring, that would be better.
I have a Droid Maxx on my way, should be here tomorrow. I shall donate the device to a dev or sell it at a super low price to help the G Flex community.

That's way cool. You could try one if the dead pixel repairs apps though. Maybe they'll shock it into working right

I am trying that software right now. Wow that is making me trippin'

Due to the nature of the new flexible screen tech used in the G Flex, there is always going to be some discoloration, graininess, and image persistence. Think back to the first AMOLED screens in the original Galaxy S. Its the price we pay for walking around with a mass produced engineering concept.
