Hi everyone. I offered my daughter a moto x first generation for Christmas and she said she has a very thin green line in the middle of the screen from top to bottom ... Does anyone have heard about this problem ...?

I am on my 5th note now. Had returned 4 before and taken my money back. But this one I won in a contest and paid just abt 105$ as some tax. This one has no lines or very very faint ones visible only on light grey color but u have to really look real close and try to find then only u c em. Which seems perfect BUT this one has horrible screen unevenness. The top left corner is reddish and bottom right is greenish. And just tilting the phone even slightly causes the green tint. While working in portrait mode also I feel the left is warmer and right is cooler. All this happens only on very low brightness, as i increase the brightness the defects become very less obvious but i know they are there. Now i am really confused whether to go for another exchange as i am really tired of the exchanges now. Plus what defects m gonna get next i dunno. Please advice community members?

Update 2 Feb 2012:
Got the fifth one exchanged now on the sixth one and this one also has reddish top but bottom is fine. Last one was from OCT batch and this ones from Jan 2012 Batch.
I got my notes exchanged as follows:
1. Bought the 1st one and had a stuck white pixel in the center of the screen rest all was fine with very faint lines. At that time I dint know of other issues so after 2 days I got it replaced.
2. The second one hand no dead pixel but had this grey smudge marks visible everytime in every condition. So Came to know of 2 problems a dead pixel and grey smudges. Again got it replaced.
3. The third one had horrible visible horizontal line visible at all brightness levels. So I returned it and got a refund. By now I knew of 3 defects dead pixel, dark smudges and damn horizontal lines. After I returning the 3rd one I checked the pics of my 1st and 2nd note and found they also had these lines but very faint and not bothersome.
4. Finally won the 4th one is a samsung contest. It had image burn and also they gave me a used phone so returned it and got a sealed replacement (OCT 2011 Batch).
5. The fifth one as stated above had this horrible top reddish and bottom greenish problem plus the viewing angles were horrible, just slightly tilt the phone and the screen gives a green tint way too unbearable. So returned that as well for an exchange.
6. Now on the 6th one. It has faint line have but not something unbearable so a non issue for me. Theres no dead pixel, or green tint on screen tilt and colors also appear more natural than being cartoonish. But even this one has a reddish top which is visible on grey and brown background though the bottom is fine. The reddish top is even sometimes visible on white background in browser with low brightness. And if I dont see the reddish top then the top of the screen appears darker than the bottom.
SO Would you guyz recommend me to go for another replacement or keep this one. Also FInd the Pics attached of the latest one.
Maybe it's time to get a different phone in all honesty...
Guys this thread is updated please see and reply. Thanks !!!
Sorry if this has already been asked, but I purchased a green moto x with a white front, and the plastic surrounding the screen has became discolored. It has almost a yellow tinge to it. Has anyone else had this issue? I've had clean hands when handling it and for the most part it stays on my desk or in my jean pocket. Motorola is going to replace my phone but i'm a little worried to get another white front....

I'd go with black front. That's what I have I always thought white to be for women so all my phones were always black.
MOTO X SLAPPED
I also have an olive green back and white front. I got it mid December. Mine is still nice and white. People think I have an iPhone which kind of pissess me off, but then I can show them how cool the Moto x is.
I ordered another one, but I got a black front / orange back (orange is brand new as of yesterday along with several other colors). Thanks for the replies guys.

Lol not at all a smoker.
I just bought a Moto G 2014 and I'm noticing diagonal lines across the screen (45 degrees) especially visible on light backgrounds. Is this normal on the Moto G 2014?
hey i see the same lines, when screen is off and with the light of sun. I have a new Moto G 2014 to, like 5 days .-
This is the touch sensor grid
Digitizer touch sensor thingy. Its pretty obvious in direct sun light, nothing to worry about

I'm talking about diagonal lines visible on the screen when it's on. Not the lines you see with the screen off in sunlight those don't bother me. It probably has to do with the digitizer though.
I currently own 2 2014 moto g's. My first one was brought at launch and the screen is perfectly clear, my second one was brought a few weeks ago and the screen has diagonal lines which can be seen best at a 45 degree angle. They must be different screen manufacturers.
I'm going send back my second one for a replacement as I can't live with the diagonal lines knowing how much better my first one looks.
Can you try to click a photo of it?
I have uploaded some photos here I would call it a kind of grid effect. Again my first moto g 2014 does not have this and is clear at all angles.
That looks like the same problem I'm having. Might send my phone back as well.

i have that effect to, but i guess is normal, maybe because is gorila glass 3 ?
I do think it is normal for that particular screen. Again my other moto g 2014 doesn't have the lines so motorola must be using different screens.
well there is only one option to be sure, nobody or someone can email Motorola support Moto Care with those images and see what they replay ?
moto g with diagonal lines EXCHANGED PHONE
I just exchanged my moto g because of this problem. they had an older one which had no issue with the screen l, no such lines on the LCD, and the white didn't have an yellow tint as my previous had...
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CHANGING THE MOTO G IF YOU HAVE THIS ISSUES...
Not sure if this counts as reviving an old thread, but I got a replacement Moto G 2nd Gen about 2 weeks ago after my 1st one had a display issue where the glass touched the bottom part of the screen too much.
The replacement that I got has the diagonal lines which are very visible, as well as the lines of pixels much more visible than before. The screen looks much more purple rather than black when turned off too? I got the 1st one in November for reference, reckon Motorola are now using a different type of screen that causes this? Because I have no idea. I also noticed that the back panel of the case was much more flimsy and appears to have a different version number on it.
Reckon I should return this one or am I just going to get the same problem

Its not a 'problem' as such, afaik all the newer moto g's have the same thing. Mine does. It's just the type of screen thats used on the phone.

I have recently returned my Moto G 2014 that has this problem for a full refund and got the new 4G version. This problem is now fixed and the screen has returned to the 'old' style where it is black with no purple tint, no diagonal lines and has better quality.
Posting here just so everyone knows if they are curious.
Hey guys, I recently dropped an iron on my s5, and the screen cracked. At first I thought it was OK, but nothing show on the screen, but I can feel vibrations and see the led lighting up. Do you guys know if its worth replacing the screen. I thinknit might be a broken Amoles. BTW I bought a moto g for $120 while I'm waiting.
Hello everyone, 1 week ago i bought my Moto X 2014 (XT1092) and I noticed something like grain on the screen, most noticeable when scrolling down a page or on white backgrounds (but you can still see it in other colors, except for black). Looks like there's this 'grain' under the screen, but obviously there isn't. I saw that this can be caused from PenTile Matrix Amoled screen, but most of people that have this phone don't see it. I also found the screen too much yellow on white backgrounds, and if I tilt the phone it minimizes the problem... I don't know what to do.
Most of the people who have reported this problem in the past, were able to exchange it with the warranty. If it is bothering you, and you are still under warranty, I would suggest that you look into that.

someone could send a photo of the problem?
Today I received my replacement and it suffers from the same problem. One thing I noticed is that out of the box the phone was already on, on the language selection page.
