[Q] Strange background on all screens! What's that???

Hi,
I just bought a brand new Moto xt 1058 unlocked. There is some strange background on all screens even in the boot screen. You can see some words like " talk more" etc. Does anyone know how to get rid of that?
I made a photo of the screen using another phone. By the way, if I make a screenshot, the background is not seen on the screenshot.
It is not clear on this picture, since the image is compressed. However if it is downloaded and viewed by a photo viewer, you can see some pattern and text in the backround
Are you sure it was brand new? It could have burn in on the screen. Common problem with amoled displays.
Looks like it was a demo unit and the screen burned in there little marketing images...
If you bought the device in the last year I would return it for screen burn in.

Can you do a simple test? (Tab S2 8.0 MM)

Hi, i need to understand if my Tab S2 8.0 is defective or it's a common bug;
If i set a black wallpaper like:
http://www.androidcentral.com/sites...rs/pure-black-wallpaper-159.jpg?itok=F7s-qzpr
in home screen upper left corner i see a white halo, it's more noticeable in a dark or semi dark room with auto brightness on. The strange thing is that when i watch the same image in gallery or quick pic at full screen there is no white halo, so i don't think it's a defective display.
Here's a pic of what i see. (Live it's more noticeable than in the photo)
Please let me know if you have the same issue.
Please help me, tomorrow is the last day to have a replacement where i bought it (10days)
Nobody can help me? Please set a black background and watch if you see the halo effect in home screen, i don't think it's so difficult

Display looks faded

Hi, I switched from an AMOLED display phone to Mi A1 and I do not have any sort of control over the vibrancy of the screen. It looks washed out and faded to me as I am not used to it. Any guidance for increasing vibrancy will be of much help.
Thanks
Try "Increased contrast" option under DISPLAY in settings. This is an LTPS display so switching from AMOLED I guess you'll feel a little underwhelmed.

Original Moto Display in a custom room?

Today I installed Pixel Experience on my device and it has something similar to Moto Display but it is only activated by passing the hand over, not just moving it as before, is there a .zip or app to return to the original Moto Display with the time inside a circle?

Odd look and lack of brightness -- Vivid vs Natural display

My 10+ arrived yesterday and so far I've been impressed with two exceptions. As mentioned in other threads my finger sensor leaves a lot to be desired but my point of this thread was about an odd look my screen had. It was not bright and sharp like my 8+. There was a yellowish tint. I went into the 8+ to see if there were any differences in my display settings and I fixed the problem my by changing the screen mode on the 10+ from natural to vivid (Settings > Display > Screen Mode). The options were different on the 8+ but on the newer version it's one of the two, vivid or natural.
Just wanted to share that in case anyone else is having the same issue.
One question. My 10+ came with the screen protector and I've never had one. I assume they take away at least a small percentage of your brightness and clarity? I'm tempted to remove mine to see.

Keep in mind that Natural should follow the sRGB color space. Most displays have default colors that are too cold/blue (high color temperature, and I know, it's counter intuitive but that's what they call it ). Relative to "colder screens", sRGB will seem warmer / more yellow. But it's also much more accurate as far as color representation goes, and should be closer to what you see with your eyes unfiltered by sunglasses. This assumes whatever image you're looking at is also taken with neutral colors and not over saturated.
I usually calibrate all my screens to have more accurate colors, at the expense of that "pop" you can get with AMOLED screens.

That "pop" is exactly what I'm looking for so would you suggest I stick with vivid? I understand what you're saying about the colors but it's not an area I'm real familiar with. I'm just not seeing a brightness on the level I prefer and yes I have it set as high as possible.

Yeah, you'll want to leave it on vivid if you want that "pop". I also know that when my current Google Pixel got the Pie update, the auto-brightness was a bit finicky at first, as it's an "intelligent" brightness and it takes a few days to learn your preferences for the right brightness based on the lighting conditions. So that might be the case with the S10 as well, and I should be picking up mine tomorrow so then I'll know more about how it works exactly.
Also I think I read somewhere that the S10 will only get very bright in direct sunlight if it's set to auto-brightness. You apparently can't set it to that level manually. So perhaps play around with that a bit.
Any news on this? I just picked up my s10 plus and the screen has a yellow tint and seems less bright compared to my note 8...not sure if I just ask for a replacement. Thanks!
I always run mine on Vivid and WQHD and as expected the S10 is spectacular

im surprised there isnt adaptive display mode like on the previous models this really made different colours pop. mine seems to have a bit of an orange tint
I also found it too yellow.. Go at the advanced settings and reduce the green close to the minimum and the red just a little bit. It will look white again..
Because of the sun light some people find yellowish colours more natural..
Yeah the whites don't look good on the s10 compared to my note 8
Just compared mine with different demo models and they all seem a bit more 'natural'. No need to swap it for a different one, allthough they all are a bit different...one more leaning towards blue white and the other to yellowish white.
Well coming from pixel 3, to me, Colors looks natural. S10 screen is crisp and clear. Nobody can best sammy when it comes to screens. I am using natural mode. Vivid mode is having too much pop.

So even I had the same thoughts when I got hands on my S10+. Was worried the screen had some issues and hence went to the Samsung store and compared with the display phones - there was no difference between what I had and the display ones. However, when I compared with my S8+ I found that S8+ display was more blue-ish than S10+. The response from Samsung was that by default Samsung had toned down the blue light in the S10 screens for improved readability.
However, I feel the colors had lesser contrast in my S10+ screen compared to my S8+ and that is a bummer - at least for me!

I have found that applying "blue light filter" and setting it's effect to minimum fixes the color saturation and reverses the washed out look on images. Another way is to go into visibility enhancements -> color adjustment -> then either apply a filter there like "Tritan" or "personalize color" and follow the steps. To me I cannot see any difference between the above steps or just simply applying "blue light filter" set to minimum. To me both look to correct the color saturation about the same.
I hope this helps you!
Hopefully they fix this soon!
Cheers ?

Hi guys. I think you might be encountering the display saturation bug.
The Galaxy S10 (USA Unlocked version in my case) has a peculiar bug in the display. When a photo is fully opened in an app such as Gallery, the photo's saturation becomes muted and cold (even with the display set to vivid and warm). It's very apparent with skin tones. I first noticed this when comparing identical photos between my S10 and S9.
If you hit the app switcher, the minimized card displays the photo with the correct saturation. Maximizing the app, causes the image to immediately turn washed out and Muted. This is appears to be a system wide bug, as it shows up in Gallery, Instagram and other places. I could not get this to show up with a screen recorder, since it's the display changing the image. I recorded it with my camera, but it appears very subtle. In person it is very obvious. I don't know how many are affected by this bug, but I'm seeing others talk about it on forums. Appears to affect all galaxy S10 models.
For a temporary fix, you can enable the blue light filter and set it to the MINIMUM setting. This will display photos in the Gallery and other apps with the correct color saturation. Hopefully Samsung will address this with a software update!
