Screen Flickering issue? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Notice some screen flickering on my device from time to time. Only thing I can think of is I was charging with a different cable then the one that comes with the phone and when I unplugged the problem went away.
Mostly notice when transitioning between screens and charging. Anyone else?

I haven't noticed any flickering at all, even with a different cable.

Hard to see and not always easily duplicated but can tell on some solid off white and dark grey backgrounds.

I have noticed it too with the screen dimmed and only with the turbo charger. Just some interference I would imagine. I am not worried about it.

My screen is all BLUE!

Well sort of. My phone has a really really blue tint to it. I'm not sure what it is but no reds nor yellow colors can't be seen. The yellow looks really green. As for the red it looks really dark red somewhat blackish. Tried replacing the amoled 3 times. Still same.

Try settings-> cyanogenmod-> interface-> render effect, and play about with the settings there.
I did that already. Lol its on no effect and its blue! I put it on night mode which is red. The screen turns super dark. Almost a black color.

I don't know anything else to do then, sorry
I know I ordered my 4th amoled display hopefully it works!
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
You ordered a 4th screen? It's obviously not the screen. But the controller or something else wrong with the hardware or just the connection to the screen itself.
The chances of the first replacement having the exact same problem is pretty low, but 3 screens all acting the exact same means the screen is working perfectly. Replacing it again will not fix it.
My original amoled display ribbon ripped so I ordered another from China. That's when it was blue. maybe its not original although it states it is

I ordered from different people. Of course I gotta refund when it didn't work. $50+ for display. No effing way!!

[Q] Will this LED Laptop be prone to screen burn?

I just bought an Asus G73SW-A1 and I found out that it has an LED screen, so does that mean it will be prone to screen burn?
I don't think so...
@ jas below xD yaaay cheers for saying.. I'm scared to do another post

But anyway OP I don't think led lcds suffer much from burning in
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
OP is confusing LCD, LED and Plasma. Only Plasma suffers burn-in, and the 'LED' of your screen is simply the backlight that is used which is, sometimes, more uniform and energy efficient than the traditional CCF technology.
That is all.
I'm not confusing anything. I know that Plasmas and LEDs suffer screen burn and I could've sworn it didn't say LED backlit...I'll check again but I think it's an LED screen...

LED=Light Emitting Diode
Working at a computer repair shop and actually took out the LEDs out of a screen. They are just a series of LED lights for the backlight. The screen is still and LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
Are you sure this specific computer isn't an LED screen? They do make LED screens....
He is sure, its an led lcd,

I'm sure. It is impossible to create a screen just from light.How an LCD works is that it creates an image between two dark plates of glass, that heat the individual crystals making the image appear. But normally you can't see it, hence why you have the backlight. The newest way of lighting these LCD panels are LED lights. They are cheaper to produce, last longer, and have a better brightness. But that's about it.
If you want to do an experiment, open up the frame of your laptop screen, disconnect the inverter(which controls the backlight) turn on the computer and angle it at your room light, and you will see faint outlines of the system. But that only works with older laptops since the newer ones have the inverter built into the LCD and only use one cable that goes into the monitor, instead of 2, from the motherboard.
It's not impossible for only led, a car place in Paris had about a meter by a meter of red green and blue leds playing a video, looked awfule but was cool I guess

What about LED TVs? And what about LED variant phones (OLED, AMOLED, SUPER AMOLED)?

LED tv's = LED LCD
OLED and other variants afaik have no led back light and they can light up individually, which is why blacks are blacker as the pixel has virtually no power going to it
But Samsungs AMOLED and SAMOLED displays use Pentile arangment making thm not as clear as they share sub pixels, SAMOLED+ however uses RGB meaning its clearer The Nexus Galaxy uses Pentile to that amazing DPI comes up to actually be as clear / defined as the SGS2 , but more pixels too push so more battery eating and more gpu power neeed

You're talking about disparate technologies that have nothing to do with each other. LED displays do exist, but are usually only used as a cost effective way of creating massive outdoor displays. LED TV's are again, just LCD with an LED backlight.
Your laptop has an LCD screen. Be thankful!

Okay good to know then. I'm getting the sgs2 also. Will that have screen burn?

[Q] Faulty screen : squares and dots on it (with photos)

Hi guys,
Yesterday I bought a Nexus 32gb in Fnac, and I realized that with the screen off the light of a close reading lamp is reflected in it and because of this I can see a dotted line and "squares" in the screen (I suppose it's the tactile panel)
The weirdest thing is after seeing the dotted line with the screen off, when I turn it on with the highest bright and a white background I keep on seeing those points
Would you be so kind as to check this?
Thanks for all.
My one x and asus transformer have them too.

I'm very grateful for your answer.
Do you still see them in the same place when you turn the screen on for a few seconds and put a white background in it?
The squares are in an obvious pattern. There is no way that could be a bad screen. All HP touchpad had it.

Ok, but I dont think it's normal that I can see the points with screen on (with background white)
Regards.
I see this with the Kindle Fire but not with the Nexus 7.

I've noticed this pattern on my Nexus 7 as well, but only when the screen is off and hit by a bright light at just the right angle. And even then, I have to really look for it.
I've never been able to notice it while the screen was turned on though.
guys....

No problem here. All screens have this. Its the touch sensor.

ah no, i can only see them when the screen in off and i am outside with bright sunlight on the front face... no chance of seeing them on white background here. :good:
It is normal. Stop being paranoid and just accept what people are telling you. It is normal to see that pattern while the screen is on if you have a bright background.
Edit: If people say they cant see them they are not looking for it correctly. All capacative screen has em'. True story

Backlight Bleeding

Sorry if this topic has been posted already, but is anyone else experiencing back light bleed. It's most noticeable with high brightness and black background. I wouldn't complain about something like this normally but it's quite noticeable on mine.

Lets see some picture examples?
It's IPS, they all have it, if you don't want bleed then buy an OLED screen. Why do you think they never turn the screen to full brightness at shows?

How visible is your digitizer in the sun?

Mine is really noticeable, but I'm not sure what's normal. Took it to sprint and they claimed it was normal. Mine is pretty visible unless you are viewing dead on. It's almost distracting to the point I think I can see it indoors on white backgrounds. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Haven't used it outside much, but when I do it's better than ANY phone I have ever used outside!
