Hello, i've recently asked for a replacement of my z3c due to an issue with the previous one. In my previous z3c i was able to easly see the annoying touch grid on the display that i can't see on the new unit, is it possible that they have changed the display? Thank you.
That's awesome if they did.
I can tell you that I bought my Z3C about three weeks ago and never noticed the touch grid.

I had two replacements and it does seem like they did change it
Look at the screen under sun light and if you still don't see a grid of dots, then you may have a different screen.

Also check to see if glove mode works. I'm sure the grid is to improve touch sensitivity as it looks like a layer of capacitors to improve touch response, i could be wrong.
Under the direct sunlight the grid is barely visible, on my older z3c it was really noticeable. It seems to work correctly with gloves too so I think that maybe they have improved the screen quality.

How's the white balance and color reproduction? Still too cold and bluish?

Hi,
do you all have this backlight leak when phone has got black background? Like for example when you open camera in dark room?
I just wonder if I should replace the phone for a new one, if its worth or the new one would have the same ..

Yep, it bleeds a little from the top two corners of the screen for me. If it was any worse than it is I would return it but I've decided that I won't notice it enough to bother me all that often.

Yes this issue has been reported by multiple users in the general issue topic. Not much you can do though, except returning your phone if you think it is worth it. Personnally, I won't bother.
my is in the bottom right corner
My friends Iphone4 bleeds also backlight when Camera LED is on.. ain't it normal ?
Mine's also having backlight bleeding at the top 2 corners, like what you see in this vid:
It's also mentioned in this preview: http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/07/lg-optimus-2x-review/
Did anyone get a set without backlight bleeding at all 4 corners?
i had 3 medium leak on the top, change to another one and have now 2 small leak in the top coner
Im just wondering if there is any device without the backlight leak. As i understood is present in all the phones...
Is the screen lit from the corners like the led-lcd TVs? I think I remember reading it somewhere, but have no idea idea whether or not it's true
I think i have a bad screen.
Today i went to a store and compared my Z3C with a another one. The weird thing my screen is more blue / Cold.
I checked the brightness and calibration on both. They where the same.
The other thing was i took a picture on both.....the black colors on the other one was more black. I hope not i also have a bad camera. I dont have those pink color phenomenem told by others.
Does anyone also had that fault ?
Can you tell when was your phone manufactured and where?
It's on the paper/sticker next to the the SIM card slot and the date should look like 14W41 (year 14, week 41). Maybe they used a different screen, which is a known policy. By the way, the HTC (M7) had 3 screen variants and 2 camera variants, but I did not hear if Sony uses 2 diferrent sensors.
My is 14w42. The demo one in store was 14w37 D5803.

Here is how to check it, but it needs root.
It's strange, but am I the only one who's display's white is actually more into red/pink, not blue? My display, especially on sunshine is all red-ish, so I have actually increased the green to make it more neutral...
Did you check if the brightness settings were the same? When low light, the blue tends to get stronger.

Just my guess...but it sounds like your phone has Screen Burn-In.
It seems to happen a lot on AMOLED displays, which is the type of display that the Nexus 6 has.
Personally, so far I have not had that problem, but then again, I am fairly carefully not to leave anything text or image on the screen for an extended period of time.
Sounds like amoled screen burn which a lot of phones were getting when they first came out. There isn't really much you can do about the screen burn unless you replace the part. One thing that some have done is turn on inverted colors through the "accessibility" settings and it will evenly burn the rest of the screen out.
Unless the buyer stated the phone came with screen burn, I'd contact the seller....that's pretty bad not to disclose something like that.
Burn-in means that some pixels cannot switch on/off completely or not at all.
On a white background you will see the not working pixels.
Try black wallpaper or the 'no wallpaper app'.
And switch apps to dark mode when possible.
Another option is to change the LCD density. In case you are rooted
The G-default I'd 560 and you could try 493 or 384.
But you need to replace the display.

I've never heard of that but if it looks like ghosting when your screen is off that's screen burn most likely. It leaves a very faint image or partial text visible despite the screen off.
There have been multiple threads on this. In each thread the cause is the same: screen burn-in caused by the device being an ex-display model from an AT&T store. The fix is also the same: replace the screen. Wear leveling of the pixels only works if a negative of the burned-in image is available, which the AT&T display image is not. Therefore replacing the screen is the only viable alternative.
Motorola will do it for $175.
I live in Toronto and considered myself lucky to find someone to change my cracked screen. All seems great, accept now my fingerprint sensor isn't rally working. Every other aspect seems to be perfect. Anyone had this issue? Anyone changed screens? Anyway to reset the fingerprint sensor other then erase and try again?
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA.
Maybe he forgot to reattach it and your phone basically has no fingerprint scanner now? Idk open it up and look for yourself.
Thanks.
Was it an AMOLED screen, AliExpress sellers are now selling TFT LCD replacement screens, alongside AMOLED screens, at about half the price. LCD screens aren't good with FOD ordinarily.
I replaced mine back in December with an AMOLED, but I've been on custom ROMs where the FOD isn't as good as stock anyway, so couldn't say if I'm getting as good performance as before. It recognises my left thumb 9/10 and my right thumb 5/10, and never as fast as stock, which seems about par for the course with custom ROMs. I considered flashing MIUI just to test the FOD properly after fitting the replacement screen, but never got round to it.

Thanks for getting back to me, yes it is an AMOLED and I do have an update!! It works perfectly once the screen is on. If I remember correctly I was able to use the scanner from the lock screen with the animation of the fingerprint.
Now I can only use it if it's in the on position showing the time etc. so I just used lift to wake so it works 100% now.
Thanks for the attention.
I have the same problem, caused by replacing it with a screen from a random ebay seller (local warehouse).
After looking through a few Aliexpress listings I noticed that some product descriptions contain a note that they sell only a compatible part, not an original. Others state "100% original" or something along these lines. And many just don't write anything... I assume most of them are fake, if not all.
It is definitely a OLED, but the fingerprint gets almost never recognized, it is hard to complete even the fingerprint setup. Only works if I increase the brightness manually. The screen goes somehow much darker in fingerprint mode, instead of making a bright cyan dot like the stock part. Enabling the screen before unlocking helps on mine too, I think the reason is the higher brightness there, but still not as good as before with the standard screen.
In addition the image is a bit worse, especially looking closer at solid grey, it looks grainy. Normally it should look clean. Do you see that as well?
Scrolling is also not as good, doing a fast fling results in a much slower movement than with the stock screen. It works and might not be as noticeable, but having two devices side by side reveals quite a big difference. I bought another 9T just to try this...

I doubt my screen is original, but it's definitely good quality. There's no noticeable screen quality issues, either with display resolution, colour or motion. Haven't compared it against another Xiaomi/Redmi display, but against other FHD+ 60 Hz AMOLED displays on a mid range Samsung and a top range Honor, it's just as good.
I have the same exact issue after replacing my own screen. It seems to have to do with the finger print animation lighting up when your finger gets in contact with it.
I've disabled the finger print method completely and that seems to help.
I'm not sure how to fix this though, as I would like to use it the way it was intended myself.
(btw factory resetting the phone helps with the success rate of the finger print sensor if you haven't tried that)
Perhaps if you need to buy a new display, I bought the "AMOLED Black" variant available here. Has been replaced on a Mi 9T, everything works fine and it's as good as the original display. It seems like the price has dropped significantly, almost 50%.

Yes, it's all working. I only have no idea what the difference is between "AMOLED" and "Original". I assume that perhaps Xiaomi certifies those displays as original, however, they're most likely the same as the "AMOLED" displays, maybe with slightly better color accuracy. I didn't notice a difference between my Mi 9T Pro and the Mi 9T with the replaced display.

I changed the display but I have problems on my MI 9T Pro with MIUI 12.
5 dot instead if 10 dot touch.
Double Tab To Wakeup didn't working.
Fingerprint sensor didn't working (restarts after using).
All these points are working on your phone with this display from AliExpress?
If yes, I will buy this display too .....perhaps .....

It's not my phone which has the replaced screen, but from what I know, everything is working. Besides that, they're quite cheap now (I had to pay double for what they retail now since it was cracked roughly half a year ago). The total job would cost you under 100 euro to get it replaced.

The screen used on my device was this link (the amoled model) and everything you described is working perfectly:
https://it.aliexpress.com/item/4000691686320.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.41084c4d4VnhIQ
A summary of the situation:
Until MIUI 11, the MI 9T / K20D [PRO] worked normally even when their screen was replaced by non-original screens with only 5 multitouch points, sometimes described as "tft" or "oled", including the fingerprint scanner.
Most of the screens available on internet sellers are of these types, and vendors often insist that they are original. The easiest way is to check the number of multitouch points, if it is not 10, it is not original.
After upgrading to MIUI 12, the fingerprint scanner of the MI 9T / K20D [PRO] equipped with these screens no longer works, restarting the device whenever trying to register a fingerprint. This is not a calibration problem.
The only solution found so far is to replace the non-original screen with an "AMOLED" screen, with 10 multitouch points, which is either original or at least has characteristics similar enough to the original to work.
This topic has a good explanation on that subject https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/help/miui-12-fingerprint-unlock-defective-t4122135
I hope it helps
Hello!
I received a pixel 7 phone today and at a slight angle on the white screen I see strange shades (something like rainbow, green), but when I look directly at the phone, this is not noticeable. In normal operation, this is imperceptible, it is noticeable only when only the white screen is on. on the old oneplus 6t phone, this effect is the same, but here it is a little better visible on a white background, perhaps due to the fact that the pixel is much brighter than the screen. Should I be worried, or is this how it should be and you just need to get used to it?
On the Internet, I found a video on a similar problem. Link to similar issue:
https://www.reddit.com/r/pixel7series/comments/y3af8s
My pixel 7 does not have this. Based on what I found on the internet, it seems this is a quality control problem for the display where some screens will have this while others do not.
It seems that the advice is that if this problem annoys you, then the best thing to do is to return the device for a full refund. Then re-purchase the device.
It's not recommended to replace, because then it becomes difficult to ask for a refund/another replacement if something does happen again.
I dont have this
It's because of the display panel being used. DXOmark reviewed the Pixel 7's screen and stated:
The biggest color-related problem on the Pixel 7 is that it shows alternating pink and blue stripes as the viewing angle changes, as seen in the photo below and the graph.

The display still got 140 points and is currently in line with phones like the iPhone 14.
If you have dark mode turned on it's way less noticeable.
