I have two, one located on the top left and bottom right corners. Any solutions?
you can try this for a bit:
http://www.jscreenfix.com/faq/17-how-do-i-run-the-jscreenfixmidlet
otherwise if it annoys you, swap for a new one
I have two as well, one red in the middle and a blue on the top right corner.
I run the jscreenscript for two hours but didn't help. Also wondering for alternativ solutions....

just swap for a new one
yeah, don't waste your time endlessly on searching for a solution. Just send it back. I understand it's not something you really wanna do, but it's the best solution.
I contacted Clove, where i bought it from. Called them and told me they would get back to me about warranty returns, and then emailed them and I haven't heard anything back.
afaik a stucked pixel is no reason for a device swap. as in this issue the relation of dead pixels to number of all pixels is important so maybe two are, i dont know. when i sent in a treo pro due to a stuck pixel palm didnt swap.

I would just return it under the long distance selling law which states you can unconditionally return the item with 14 or so days. Just say you didn't like it, and buy one from another retailer. That's what I did will clove before. Much quicker than them confirming the fault, and in the case of dead pixels, 2 might be witching the accepted amount anyway.

I'll just live with it, My Nokia N95 had about 4 stuck/bright pixels and they went away after a while. It's hardly noticeable as it is. BTW here is Cloves response:
'Thank you for the e-mail - the official policy of HTC is that if 2 - 3 pixels are grouped together then the fault would be dealt with under warranty. If there are up to 3 dead pixels with spacing of at least 5mm between them, then it wouldn't be dealt with under warranty.
If something damages your enjoyment, I would send it back
I have done that for a wobbly battery back which really pi$$ed me off
the only dead pixels I ever accepted are on my Canon 5D, but as the onboard computer mapped them out and everyone has them its not a really problem.
Hi,
I purchased a HTC one back in May which is the one of the left. I had some problems with the usb cable
not staying so Rogers sent me a replacement device. The 2nd replacement had a Yellow tint so then Rogers
sent me a third device with the same tinting.
I prefer the more bluer tint however which is the one that is defective? The Blueish or the Yellowish?
I have searched the web and have found little information, mostly on other HTC Devices.
Any input would be greatly appreciated

Same with me (also with Rogers), and got 3 phones with 3 different colour temperatures. However, the other factors (build quality) is more important to me. When you get used to it, you probably cannot tell which colour temperatures you have.
Well I think it has to do with both phones that were sent me were Refurbished and my original one was to be
covered by their product protection plan (Asurance) however Rogers made an error and setup the wrong line on my
account so I could not put through a valid claim. So with the two phones that have been sent to me I have been
looking over them with a fine tooth comb.

Why did Rogers send you refurbished phone? How do you know they were refurbished?

The boxes that were sent to me were in Rogers "Red" boxes along with a disclaimer that they were refurbished devices.
They had to send me devices as they made an error with their "premium" device protection plan and I had a claim and the
3rd party insurance company would not honour based on Rogers error. The first device they sent me had to go back because
of the screen tint and that there was a large scratch on the back side of the device.
same issue, I've bought a black international unlocked HTC ONE from amazon.uk around 3 months ago, today I received a new HTC ONE (because the old one have a low charging issue).
I see on new HTC ONE display a strong yellow tint .... so the difference between two screens is big! .. see the image below:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/548546/IMG_0028.JPG
so is possible that I must have to wait only for the adhesive to dry? I do not remember that with my first HTC I had this problem...
How can I try to fix? how can I check what brand of display was on the two HTC?
Had this happen also with AT&T personally prefer the cold/blueish tint. Just my personal preference. Couldnt stand the Yellow whites

I have received my Z1 last week, everything is fine expect one green stuck pixel on the screen.
I digger a little for Z's screen and it looks like screen with bad pixels is normal but not very common.
Someone else get their phone with bad pixels? Should I get a replacement or keep this one in my hand?
Sorry for my bad english.

Bad luck. So far I haven't seen any bad pixels on my Z1 screen. If you can't live with it, and can get a replacement, you should try it. Chances are you'll get good screen. Unlike the old days, the chances of getting a screen with bad pixels are lower.
Err, what do you reckon. You have bought something with a defect. Yes of course you should send it back

In the old days, 1 or 2 dead pixels was accepted on a monitor, depending on the manufactor and place for the dead pixel...
do anyone know what the limit of dead pixels is for a phone in 2013 ??

My search result before for xperia z is, above 2 will get a replacement or maybe you will stuck with that screen with dead pixel.
I think the only way to fix this is to get it replace.

My Z1 came with the same problem, after a week of use appeared a white pixel
Hello friends i purchased 2nd gen moto g on 25th dec in india from flipkart! I got it delivered on 26th dec. that was really fast! thank you for that flipkart!
But after using it for next 2-3 days i found white pixels on my moto g to be little yellowish! i compared my moto g to my friend's moto g(same model) and his phone is perfectly fine! i tried digging for the solution on internet and i found out that some other people also complain about the same! they also said that the replacement unit is also same! Is there anyone else from india who is facing the same issue? What i should do? Will flipkart replace my phone? Really worried.. and if it replaces the device is there any chance for new device having the same problem ?
Please share your experience about replacement with flipkart in india.
May be if someone has bought Moto G 2014 in last few days can check their phone and reply? Just wanna know if the whole bunch of stock is damaged?!?!?! may be?
here is the screen shot i took with my phone! I have no idea if it looks yellowish in screenshot or not! that can be a hardware fault or an lollipop update will fix it ?
Are you just saying that you think the color temperature is too warm or what? A screenshot won't show that. Pictures posted by other owners have shown color temperature variance of ~1000K or more, and the measurements I've seen vary greatly. PhoneArena measured their review sample at 8290K, NotebookCheck measured one at 7336K, and I measured my own XT1064 at 6855K (20% - 100%). So there seems to be a large variance. Because it is typical for phones to have a color temperature that is too cool, I wonder if some of you people who complain about "yellow" screens may actually have phones that are reasonably close to the ideal of ~6500K and perhaps don't know what an accurate color temperature looks like?
Although I've a different kitkat phone but I don't see any color difference b/w mine & yours(in msg. app, for instance)...Both appear same.

This won't show up in a screenshot. He would need to take an actual photo of the phone to show the color temperature, but that would be affected by the lighting, the camera, our monitors....
The version of Android will have no affect on this at all, and Android doesn't support color correction.
It would be rare for phones to have a color temp that is too warm. They are usually too cool.
But FWIW, the phone shown in this picture does appear to have a very warm color temp. There is obviously a huge variance from unit to unit, and it may be even more of a problem in India than elsewhere. My US model has a decent (slightly cool) color temp and slightly undersaturated colors. It's a big improvement from my Sensation.

Yeah bro thanks for care but the android version is just okey because my friend is on the same stock ROM that i have! And his phone is just fine!
I dont know much about color temp on any device honestly! but i just know is that the phone that i have it's display looks sooo dull due to yellow color on white pixels! i compared it with the other phone (same model "Moto G 2014") that my friend has! His phone displays perfect clear white! That makes me worried about this thing being a defective unit! I have seen on internet people talking about putting their phone in direct sunlight to remove yellow tint but i dont think i should do this coz i just bought it from Flipkart so its their responsibility to provide a fully working unit!
I will only keep this if a software update can fix this issue!
Though i have already requested replacement i haven't got any call back from them to ensure the replacement process! This is the first time i'm feeling this bad service from flipkart
I'm attaching a picture taken with other camera in the first post! take a look.. sorry about the picture quality! i just hav my old nokia phone that i can use as a camera for now!
I have added another screenshot and i see there is nothing wrong coming up in the screen shot so Is it the hardware issue with the LCD panel ? :crying
Have the same issue. And other too.

I have the same issue with my unit itself. It is way too yellowish. Color calibration is always same for the same model from the software-side. Eg. Your's and your friend's phone. So it is a hardware issue. Good thing you requested for replacement. Flipkart will take a bit of time to get back to you on Electronics replacement, because they would like to help you troubleshoot first with the assumption that just something is set wrong and it is not a hardware issue. I requested yesterday and they got back to me today only. Just for information, I requested replacement for flushed buttons on side. I have a really hard to press power button and volume rocker. Replacement is on it's way. And yours will be soon too, nothing to worry.
Btw, how are the buttons feeling on your phone? Is it mushy or hard to press or something like that? Just so I know.

Yes thank you for reply i got my replacement approved and on it's way now. Will reach to me before 8th jan! Soo excited once again!
Read somewhere that a guy asked for the replacement for his yellowish looking display on moto g and got the same issue on new replacement unit (from Flipkart ofc)! I hope that wont happen to us. Fingers cross!
Talking about the buttons, they were hard on the first day but got lose just in 2 days after i started using it! My friend told me to be careful with buttons as they get very loose overtime!
Can you tell me when you got your moto g delivered to you?
Same old same old.

I saw that the same tint is found on the new one plus one! And also people are saying it goes away in 2-3 weeks! or by putting the phone in sunlight for 2 hours!

The screen doesnt have any issue, per say. But it is heavily warm (manufacturing is done with more than one screen providers at hand. My guess is, it's from another producer), and that is something I do not want. Besides that i have a few dead pixels. And considering those utterly crap buttons, I'm gonna go for refund. They do refund. But i'm not sure how that's gonna play out as i bought it in a buyback program. Let's see how it goes.

Hello XDA!
My note 5's screen stopped functioning after it was dropped. I sent it to an authorised Samsung service centre.
Everything is fine, only that I'm observing a pink tint (usually over white) on the screen, when compared to another note 5. Is this normal? Should I raise a complaint regarding the same, or is there a workaround?
Bump!
Come on :/ someone?
No, it's not normal, and I'm fairly sure you realize that. You should see if they will "fix" it again (obviously they didn't fix it right the 1st time)
The pink tint is an older issue with many devices, haven't seen much about it with the Note 5, but it is certainly a defect in my book.

Faulty display. No root cause identified, just a bad panel.
Read rumors it could be the adhesive not curing properly.
I had that issue on like 5 samsung s6s. I kept returning then till i got an acceptable one. Still never got a perfect one.
I just got the note5 last week and the screen is perfect.
Ide send it back.

i dropped my note 5 and the display got cracked, gave the phone to the service center and they replaced the screen but the touch isn't working.
Everything is getting displayed but the touch isnt working. He told me that he replaced the screen twice but still the touch was not working, can anyone tell me what might be the issue?
