At random my lcd brightness will go up and down like it's having a seizure. I have tried auto brightness on and off, and with the power saving feature on and off. It's not a bid deal because it usually goes away quickly, but I would like to know if anyone else has it.
here's a video of the problem-
Mine will at times just randomly change itself for no reason and i will have to go back into the menu and adjust it again.
It only happens every once in a while but it is still annoying.
Similar but not the same. Anyone can help us?

You sure that it is not simply the dropdown menu bar at the top? It changes your brightness by keeping your finger on it.

It starts when I'm not even touching the screen. It goes up and down, up and down, et. It's becoming more frequent now. I guess my lcd is dying or something.
same with me. I like to keep my brightness setting to the absolute minimum, however on numerious occassions i find that it has automatically brightned and when i go into the settings the slider is halfway.
I usually notice it after charging the phone, either way it shouldnt happen.
I had the same issue when i have installed the Voodoo lagfix + Voodoo Color.
Without Voodoo color, it was better.
Just want to check that you guys know that
you can adjust brightness using the drop-down status bar, right?
By swiping you finger left/right on the drop-down status bar, you could adjust brightness. (if "automatic brightness adjustment" is off)

I'm positive my lcd is dying. It started with JM1, continued in JPM and JP6. It flickers and goes up/down without any pattern.

What do you mean by flickering? Perhaps the brightness changes in such rapid succession? Try using light sensor test
Dial this number (as if calling someone) *#0589#
Try to block the light sensor with this app running and see if it's just a calibration thing, etc. though I don't know if it is calibrable (or whatever the word is )
PS: AM/OLED (or SAMOLED for that matter) is not a LCD

I've attached a zipped video in the first post.
EDIT: I tried this app when it was doing it, the app didn't respond at all to the changes, it kept reporting "Level 0". Which means it has nothing to do with it and I'm 100% certain this stupid thing is dying. And since I bought an unbranded/unlocked version from ebay, I don't think I can use the warranty. And even if I could, I've heard plenty of horror stories with warranties and support. I would just sell it for parts on ebay.
Only the bottom part of the screen is a bit darker than other areas
Does anyone have this same issue?

Sort of, if by which you mean that literally the very top of the screen - a row or two of pixels immediately beneath the notch - is very slightly brighter than the rest of the screen.

In my case, 0.5cm at the bottom border of the screen are a bit darker.
Hello, really new to this thread. My Mi 8 is about 2 weeks old. So recently I noticed that the home button gesture doesn't work sometimes. I have to repeatedly swipe up from the bottom of the screen for it to work...also when pressing something close to the status bar seems to trigger the status bar opening animation. This happens only every now and then then. I'm on stock global rom everything locked nothing tinkered with at all. Anyone experiencing the same thing?

I'm talking about the home screen gesture.
Try to test if your screen has some issues, I don't experience any problem

You mean using the gesture settings, when you swipe from the bottom it will not go home (takes multiple tries)? If so, do you have a case or screen protector installed? The way you're supposed to swipe is pretty much from outside of the actual display, upwards, so if there is something interfering with this, or you're swiping from in the display, it may not work.
If not, then try using a touch screen test app such as Touch Screen Test from Google Play (developed by Siriuth). Touch the bottom area multiple times (swipe down, left, right, but not up as this may send you to the home screen of course). Swipe slowly to see the path properly. Does it skip at any section? If it does, touch in that area may be damaged. If this phone was purchased used or from a 3rd party seller, this may be why it is damaged.

Just tried it... Everything seems fine. But still sometimes it tends to require several tries for the gesture to actually register. I'm on global 10.2.3.0, could be a miui bug since this version is not the best. Also has battery drain problems. Could be fixed in the next update.

That's very odd. Does the oleophobic coating in that area feel worn or anything? Does the friction feel high? Mine never fails, not even to open the multitasker. Do you have "Double Check for Gestures" enabled? Try turning this off perhaps? The battery drain I definitely agree. I went from 7 hrs of SOT to less than 5.

My Mi 9 display is starting to burn in the fingerprint image after just 2 months of usage. I'm going to turn off the fingerprint unlock to prevent it getting worse.
Does this sound normal?
Doesn't sound normal but AMOLED displays are know for burn in marks. For that to happen you need to have the fingerprint image always on display. I got a MI9 and the finger print image dissapear after some time and reappear if I lift the phone so its almost impossible in a normal usage to burn in the display.
What kind of burn-in is it? Is it the icon, or is it from the strong light that lights up the fingerprint at scanning? The fingerprint icon must show at the same place all the time unlike the rest of the AOD. I can se how keeeping the icon on at the exact same place all the time 24/7 may hurt an AMOLED display. I turned off, both AOD and fingerprint icon, after a day or so to save battery. Now it shows only on the lockscreen for a few seconds.

So I had seen it as a sort of retention of the fingerprint image that appears on the lockscreen. I saw it when I was walking outside in full sun today. I quickly installed an app to check different colours full screen (dead pixel fix) and it clearly showed the burn in for several colours.
But now that I'm home, I tried again the screen check app and the burn in is gone!
So I wonder if it was either just temporary retention, or if I need to be outside in full sun to see the burn.

Please come back here and tell us if you see it again. It would be good to know if the display is this sensitive to permanent burn-in. Keeping the icon shut off at the AOD would probably be a good idea, I find it rather easy to hit the right spot after some time of practice in the blind.
That what you have seen on sun isnt burn in, that is normal see-through screen becase sensor is under display.
No need to panic, i seen it too but that is not a problem.
Same as marko378, it's totally normal to see this on bright daylight, it's not a bur in.
Its the finger print sensor and i see it at day one
No problem bro enjoy your phone

Nice, today in full sun I confirmed what you're all saying. It's the sensor, the hole behind the screen, and it's only visible at certain angles in full sun.
Thanks to you all for helping
That's normal because the scanner is under the screen so it has to be a little transoarent there to work that's why In screen scanners are mainly used by oled displays. Enjoy the phone

It is not safe for the screen in my opinion to maintain the figerprint area always lighted. I use it as per default setting that dimly lights it when I take the phone and then in few seconds it disappeared even if I touch the screen. More than 1 year with the phone and no burning in the screen.
Good evening all.
Is there a notification led on the front of the Rog Phone 2?
And if it is, is it a monochrome led or a multicolor led? If it's a multicolor led, can I modify the color based of notification (WhatsApp message, Facebook Message, GMAIL, SMS, Lost Call, etc.) ?
Thanks in advice
Yeah. It is multicolor. I think you can set it based off of the apps but I haven't checked. Also the logo on the back serves as a notification light if you set it up. But I think it might be buggy as of now.

Yes there is and it's multi color, you can change the color for apps if you use a 3rd party app like light flow. You can only set the color to 1 of 3 colors i believe (Red,Green,Yellow). The default system notification color is green.

It's not very bright.. i had a blackberry before and there it was much brighter. It is noticeable only when you look to the phone imho.

If you keep it on a table or bed next to you, is the LED visible if you glance at it? My earlier LG G Pro 2 has a very prominent LED. But the newer phones seem to have a LED that is so tiny and faint that you can hardly see it blinking or glowing unless you hold it right in your hand close to your face. I think it must be the same as this ASUS ROG II phone too. All the Huaweis and Xiaomis that do claim to have LEDs have the useless invisible microscopic LEDs.

Depends on height difference between your night stand and bed, but it's very visible for me when glancing over from bed. Forgot how much I missed having a notification LED!

Had a a OnePlus 6, then switch over to a pixel 3a which was great, but not very exciting
