I bought htc one of phones4u and i notice when watching videos or something with a dark background, light bleeds from the home button on to the screen. The light bleed comes from the bottom right hand corner of screen, looks like there is missing a bit of seal from the screen so the light comes through, so i arranged for an exchange as i wanted it perfect and it was annoying, anyway just received my second handset and guess what still the same problem, It is not the same phone if any of you guys thinking this!! As the problem with this new phone is the light is bit more on the side and worse. So two phones both with the same problem.
Have any of you guys had this problem?? as i have scanned the internet and i cannot see anything about this issue. Surely i can't be the only one!!
I will be sending this back for a third time if it happens again will probably be getting the s4.
I have not had this problem nor heard anyone else with it. Can you get a picture?

I just tried this. I found I could see a tiny bit of leakage from the back button. But only if I went into the room with no windows, all lights off, and gave my eyes about 20 seconds to adjust....then I could "just" see it. I would never ever have noticed this in normal usage and I imagine some will not be able to see it on my phone at all.
The time i finish work it is pretty dark, so this is why i notice it. Mine is def worse than yours you can clearly see it best way to do it is to be in a dark room and put brightness right down on htc one, i will try and take a photo later for you guys to see.

I have light leaking where the screen meets the body. Is this common?
My first one had this issue, just like in photo above.
The replacement is perfect light bleeding wise..

I also have this issue like the photo above in the exact same spot. Mine is only a pin hole tho.
Was really surprised to see this topic. My HTC One has easily been the most flawless screen I've ever owned. I've had some light bleeding, even if barely noticeable to anyone who doesn't have severe OCD, on almost every LED-backlist display I've used...until this phone. Even my new Nexus 10, which I settled on after many exchanges, has minor light bleeding.
Just checked my phone, don't have this issue. If possible, I'd contact the seller you purchased it from or get in contact from HTC to check out the warranty.
I came across the same issue. Anybody knows what's the cause of the issue? and how to repair it!
i'd appreciate it!
Hey all, I just got my Moto X Developer Edition in the mail today, and I've noticed that the camera is not centered in the lens. It's not way off, but it's not where I think it should be.
If you look at the back lens of your phone, is the camera module centered, or is it off a little?
I just want to know if this is a defect or not so I can take the appropriate course of action.
Thank you!

mine looks centered but i didn't measure it. if it is a defect i believe that means the cover and the HW attached to the camera would both have to be off center, so i doubt its a defect.

The glass itself is obviously centered. The camera hardware behind the glass appears off center. If it is, and nobody else is experiencing this phenomenon, then it would be a defect, right?
Hopefully it isn't.

ya mine seems centered to me. didn't realize thats what you were talking about, but yes that seems like it could be a defect. wait for others to comment (assuming they will) because i could just be wrong about the centered stuff.
actually just looked at it a little harder twisting it around and stuff, thought for a second mine was off centered, then realize it was just how i was tilting the phone. It caused a really dark shadow that made it look like it was off center even though I don't think mine is, but now my eyes are just tricking me. so im stopping. just thought id say this in case you are holding it weird like i just did.
Mine appears to be perfectly centered.
Phuck.
The camera module might somehow be moved a little under the glass. It shouldn't affect performance though, unless maybe it doesn't point straight.
Thanks for the input everyone. This baby is going back.
Love the phone, though. The only thing I hate is the ABYSMAL camera. Luckily I don't use phone cameras often.

take a pic before you send it off. and post it. i want to see what you are talking about.
I have a T-Mobile model (XT1053) and the camera is slightly off centered. I don't notice any performance or quality issues.
I have a Moto X with an off center camera as well. I attached an image of what it looks like. No performance issues, just a little ugly.
I have the exact same problem!!!
That sucks let me tell you. It's a new phone I just receive because my previous one had a gyroscope problem!!
So I'm going to put back my sim card back in my old Galaxy S1 and return that Moto X back again!! Unless Motorola doesn't want!
I'll try to post a picture too before returning it... and let you know if I was able to return it.
Thanks
EDIT: Motorola accepted to replace the phone again, at no shipping cost...
I don't know why but the quality is better from my Google+ post: https://plus.google.com/+MathieuLaf...6054695484721010610&oid=118106640376957666598
Here's a thread I made on the Nokia forums: https://community.phones.nokia.com/support/discussions/topics/7000022066
"Here's something I noticed today - taking a picture in certain low light conditions produces a pink/reddish spot in the middle of the picture.
So far I've only been able to reproduce it in my own room, with natural light coming through blue curtains on beige/brown objects.
After doing some research, it appears this issue is rather well documented on many phones from different manufacturers, the Galaxy S2, S5, Xperia phones. Some sources say it might just be an issue with all smartphone sensors, referred to as "color shading", some just hide it better. My old Galaxy S3 appears to have it too, although nowhere near to the same extent. If I may, here's a couple links from androidcentral and xda of people talking about it.
What I'm wondering now is how widespread this is on the Nokia 8 in particular and whether there's any hope of having it better after a replacement. Interestingly enough, the front camera doesn't have that issue, even if it might be the same sensor (is it?), but maybe it's due to the optics too, which are probably quite different.
It also appears possible to compensate for it in the software, so I wonder what are the chances of that in case it's common on the Nokia 8.
I'll try adding a few examples I took in the comments. "

Apparently it happens on certain black fabric and not only in natural light.

So there are variances between devices then. How bad was your first phone and how much did the new one improve? Any chance you could try taking a photo of a worst example? Say black fabric in a dimly lit room.
The pink spot was clearly visible in mousebad...bow its better image from this one coming soon.
Nro:1 nokia camera app
Nro:2 open camera , iso speed 500
So its stil there.
Opencamera raw
I guess that does look a little better. Maybe.. Difficult to tell how much the scenarios match. Either way, I've turned the phone in for warranty, will see what happens.
Can you update us what happens? I just got this phone too and have the same issue sadly though the local Nokia agent isn't a very strong one I don't think they'll replace my handset. Anyway anyway out of curiosity... What color are your phones that are making this issue? Mine is the copper and I think that's the issue some how
Today morning we look go worker nokia 8 128gb version it has pinky too.

Mine was tempered blue. I very highly doubt the color has anything to do with it.
Nothing to say so far, will probably hear back next week. I'm only wondering if they got the idea that it's happening on all the pictures, as I only showed the bad examples and didn't note 'low light' in the problem description. I hope they're able to reproduce the issue themselves.

I managed to solve it by contacting Nokia support, they told me to hold the volume up button and power button to clear cache.
After that the pink shade went completely, I couldn't replicate it at all.
Another thing I was wondering is are the lenses exactly centered on the hole opening of the lenses? Mine isn't exactly centered
Look closely to the picture attached. Could this be the culprit?
My upper sensor not fully center.

Are you sure? I restored factory settings before bringing it in and it didn't change a thing.
And I can't really tell with the picture at an angle. I never noticed anything like it on my phone. Not completely centered across the length of the phone or the width?

I did factory reset too that didn't help though! The volume up and power button helped though.
Not centered as in the lense itself inside the round circle isn't centered! Check the bottom lense in the picture I attached. The lense is slightly shifted downwards

Sounds almost too good to be true, but I've got no way to test it out right now. Any chance you could take some pictures where it would've been visible before? Say a black mouse pad or whatever.
Yeah, I can see that. May have to do with where the sensor rests since that's the stabilized color one? Try seeing how it is when taking a video.
I got my phone back. Of course, the service center couldn't replicate the issue. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt as it's not easy to notice, even if I did try explaining the situations where it's the most visible. Oh well. I never noticed it on my SIII in four years, though it's not as clear, so I guess I'll just live with it.
Also clearing the cache made no difference no matter how many times I tried.
So its still there?

Yes, nothing changed. I got my old phone back, not a new one, just to clarify.
I am going to make sure that repair nan can see the spot in my phone...modules are going to chance so many times that there is no pinky.

Good luck. I'm honestly doubtful you can find one with no pink spot. Maybe minimally visible at best.
Seems some of users have this defect and it would be nice to see how many are affected, I know there's another thread but I felt this issue needed a proper poll.
I have it too, it's only noticeable on white or nearly white backgrounds like in the settings app, it's a slight yellow/Amber tint covering around 1/5 of the bottom part of the screen, starting gradually and ending at the bottom.
Take a quick look by opening the settings menu, and having a close look, it might not be noticeable at first.
it might not be noticeable with very high brightness
Please let us know if you have this issue.
I have a slight issue in the display where the top left corner seems distorted as if the display is getting folded.

I guess the quality control is somewhat sub par, I'm leaning towards not sending my unit in as everything else works fine, and the tinting is mostly not noticeable.
I guess they have some issues gluing the display into the frame and it gets slightly distorted.

Yep! It's minor issue and the phone is excellent otherwise which is why I too am not bothering with claims or anything as such.
I exchanged mine and got a nearly perfect screen,
What I would suggest is try to go to your local phone repair shop and ask them to put it under the Ultraviolet Light for 10 mins. It should help since phones use UV activated adhesive (LOCA/OCA)

And how would the UV-light help the issue?
Even i changed mine n its 2nd n7p. Still the yellow tint is present on this one but little less than the previous one. So sticking with it.. may be some live display or configurable colour settings would help if Nokia (hmd) put it on android p.
Or even in further near update . Otherwise m going to nokia care next month. Lets see what happens

Mine looks like this, it's very slight, how does it compare to yours? I don't think I want to risk getting a replacement.
I have to say it looks worse on the picture than in real life.

Yes like this only but mine is little less. On the 1st one it was exactly the same as urs.. but now on 2nd one its half of that yellowish
I had this, exchanged, got a new one with slightly less of the issue but still present. It's slowly going away with time, think it may be similar to some phones in the past where the glue hadn't completely set and required some heat from the panel being on, or possibly UV from the sun, to go clear.
I have it, but it's only really noticable at very low brightness and on completely white backgrounds. Even then it's pretty subtle. Sad, that this "premium" midrange phone has such a problem.
I sent mine back, it was bugging me too much, I even took a measurement with my Spyder3 calibrator, and comparing the top and bottom portions of the screen, I measured a delta E of 7.41 on a perfect white background.
I'm no expert but according to wiki and other resources 2-5 already indicates that is a heavy discoloration and is perceived as another color/tone, so it definitely wasn't just in my eyes.
I will try my luck with another unit, and if it has the same issue I will just leave it be.
Do you still have the problem (as of July)?

As of July 2018, do the products still have this issue?
Thank you.
It is hardware issue some part of phones, software update is not a solution. You have lucky and get phone without it, or you are out of luck and get it with yellow tint. Simple.

Has anyone else had the problem of the light bleeding through on certain colors? On the left side of mine, there's a white-ish hue coming through. I chatted with LG to see if it's a known issue. They told me to reset the device. Or send it in for repair.
See pic..may be hard to tell.
Does it affect viewing content? If not it's technically not worth it, unless ur super picky
Sometimes it does. When anything dark except black is on the screen..it's shows. Kind of annoying too.
Hmm ii see, have you try Factory resetting it first
Same!
Did you ever find a resolution? I'm on my second v40 with the same issue. After a while, the screen kept flashing when I would put it to sleep. I had to swap the phone out.

The first one I got the week the phone came out. This one I got in December. Both from T-Mobile.
The left side of my screen by the volume buttons is green and it's driving me nuts.
I haven’t used a v40 yet, but I did see multiple v30 devices with this issue. For the v30 at least you could look closely at it and the light is bleeding through the gap between the “screen” and the side frame of the phone. I say “screen” because the issue is the bezel doesn’t properly cover the gap between the screen and the body which causes the light bleeding.
You obviously can’t fix this without getting a new phone. However, I would take a guess and say eventually more and more phones will get this issue over time. Because as the phones age glue or whatever else holds the screen to the body will wear and possibly develop this gap. Another problem is bending. Even the slightest little bend will cause a problem, even without other physical damage.
Having same issue on my att v40, once you see it it's hard to not notice it, thinking about sending it to LG for replacement.

Now that it's been mentioned I looked but luckily nothing showing up on mine
Here is my screen. What do you guys think? Hard to see those in everyday use, but def can see them here and there. To test it I suggest you put uniform grey/dark grey color image on your screen and then you'll see it. In my case basically whole right side is and issue plus top part around the notch. Thinking about sending it to LG for replacement.
Can you guys sound off on this with some pics if possible, to see how bad my case actually is?
Appreciate y'all!

Re read what I said. To some degree it is not completely even. There is no such thing as perfect OLED panel, no panel is the same. Mine has it's issues, alot of it can be subjective. Your's is on the pretty bad scale in my humble opinion and it would be worth the hassle of going thru warranty repair involving sending it in, praying, and waiting a couple weeks without a device. I feel like I am repeating myself at this point, if you still want me to upload the photos it's fine. Sorry if i have a harsh tone, I have the flu.
