Hi Guys,
After hearing so much problems with the Note screen, I had another good look of mine tonight and found these weird looking white lines/dots at the bottom left of my screen.
Are these dead pixels or stuff underneath the screen?
HELP Please.....might have to get an exchange with handtec...so much hassles....
Those look like stuck pixels to me.

You have taken a pic with the default scratch guard on just remove and slightly clean the screen and see if it goes away, but most probably its 2 dead pixels, mine 1st one had 1. Quality issues with samsung !

I'm pretty sure it's not between the screen and the default protector....where did you buy yours from?
Seriously...I'm very disappointed with Samsung now....I mean, I have heard many people having problems with their screens, but never thought I would get one of them defected ones....
Looks like dead/stuck pixels I'm afraid.
Can you get a macro shot? It's kind of hard to tell without a closer view. When I've had stuck/dead pixels in the past, they've always been very discrete, tiny dots without any haze or blur, which it looks like yours has. I also wonder if it's something to do with the screen protection film. When you do a macro shot will you lift it and clean the screen?
Here....I have lifted up the screen protector....I didn't take off the screen protector was because maybe if I didn't handtec might exchange me the phone quicker....but what the heck...I need to be sure anyways...so here are the pictures.
Man.....so much trouble for this phone....very disappointed with the build quality of the screen now....
Now I will have to wait for a while to get my exchanged new phone ....
Any ideas how long it might take? I read on handtec that if the item is returned after 10 days...it will go under warranty and so does that mean they won't exchange my phone straight away??? Anyone got any experience with them??

nuh...I have tried to count them...there are a least 4 dots plus a line....very strange....they are also bright green instead of being white.....can't see them with the black background....
Shows you how bad of quality the phone I got....
I am very surprised I have not noticed them before.
Just found out online...there is a difference between stuck and dead pixels, and apparently stuck pixels can possibly be fixed yourself...might give it a try....
nuh...none of the apps seem to work
Been using JScreenFix for the phone for about half a day....just flashing the screen.....
I think the pixels have gotten a bit darker......don't know if it's my eyes playing tricks on me or not....but will continue to flash the screen for the rest of the day and then check it again tonight....hopefully then will be gone
The thing I don't really get is why the green dots (more than 3 of them) would only appear on Green, White and Grey backgrounds, and not appear on the Red, Blue and Black Backgrounds.....Anyone got any ideas?
because every colour of the spectrum uses green except for red, blue and some combination of red blue
black is when the screen is off

Hi there. I just bought the Note few days ago and I can confirm that I have the EXACT problem as yours. Except mine is just a dot. It's like a pixel that seems to be the only brighter pixel when the screen displays full green, white or grey background (specifically used the LCD test *#0*# & Burn-In Tester Pro app).
I assume that it is a stuck or a hot pixel simply because.. it lights up. Unlike dead pixel is like.. a dead bulb/pixel (Assumptions. HEHE.)
Actually on the day that I bought the Galaxy Note, I was really careful. I even dialed the *#0*# LCD TEST at the shop to look out for screen defects. It was FLAWLESS. So I bought it. And I have this habit to look out for defects even after purchase, so I always go to the LCD Test and Burn-In Tester Pro app to check, and is still perfect.
Not until, last night, I dialed *#0*# and hit "Black (Vibrate)" with the intention to check for the "blemishes/blobs" in a totally dark room. It was only apparent after my eyes had adjusted to the darkness and I do see the not so obvious blobs. So after noticing that, it didn't bother me so I happily watched an Blu-Ray quality video (Despicable Me) and that's when I noticed the BRIGHT pixel which I assume it to be a STUCK/HOT pixel. I hope it is just a stuck pixel which hopefully can be fixed over time. Don't know about hot pixels..
Right now I'm playing a Full HD video of a downloaded YouTube video called Pixel Fix, on loop, with Video Brightness set to full. My instinct says to try it out but i do know that after awhile, since it's an AMOLED technology, colors could be darker over time as the pixels slowly 'burn-out'.
AND if it doesn't work, I might try to turn off the phone and leave it somewhere really cool/chilled. And switch it on after awhile when it reaches room temperature. I read it somewhere that it works to remove stuck pixels. They put their phones in a fridge in a wrapping and they said it worked. I forgot though where I read it from.
Oh, it's this one --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21025093
Someone managed to fix a dead pixel. Hmm, but it's a phone with an LCD screen. Nyeh.
Good luck to us. Man, it was only few days ago when I bought the Note. *sniffs*
Seems quiet here. Seems like not many people have or aware of this bright spot defect.
But I found this which seems to concern about the matter. http://www.patentgenius.com/patent/7955151.html
I guess it gives some idea of what it really is. Cheers.
And I am gonna let this 'problem' go this time cos it's so small but I do hope that it won't get any worse. Or if it fixes itself that would be a miracle

Hi all, until yesterday I was really happy with my moto x since everything was working fine and I haven't had any problem at all with my phone running official Android 4.4 kitkat, BUT yesterday one of my coworkers bought himself a moto x just like mine and I was just explaining some things about the phone to him until at one point both phones were side by side and we opened Google.com website on the chrome browser and I noticed that my screen looked yellowish compared to his when displaying a white background like on google.com website.
The thing is that I set the brightness of both moto x to the maximum and still when both phones were side to side showing a white background my screen looked more yellow than his, the "whites" on his screen seems more bright and white than mine.
So, my question is if anyone here has the opportunity to have 2 moto x compared side by side, can you please open google.com website (or any white image) and tell me if the screen on one of the moto x looks more yellow than the screen on the other moto x?
Cause I need to know if this is maybe a common thing that can happen because not all the displays are exactly the same or if maybe my phone is faulty and I need to take it to the service.
And if you happen to have 2 moto x 's screens compared side by side with a white background, can you please be so kind to upload a picture here so I can see it?
Thanks a lot in advance for the help!

It is normal screen variation. I have two Moto X's here and one has the more yellow screen. for some stuff it looks very nice, for other stuff I prefer the less yellow one. I do find the color saturation is not as pronounced with the yellowish screen version which could be a plus. I have compared 4 phones total and only one has had the more yellow screen.
Lol. You were happy until you compared to another x. What is the big deal? Oled is like in its 3rd or 4th gen iteration and there is still a big disparity in display. If it really bothers you that much stay away from oled. Its reason like this oled prices will be artificially high.

I fail to see your point. I just got done RMA'ing two nexus 5 phones and one screen was very yellow on white screens while the other, while still warm, was whiter. So it's not just with oled screens. It's annoying to me that most screens are a lottery and it's not fair to the customer. I would be unhappy about this too

Ok, thanks for your answer! It's not that I'm unhappy with it, in fact I didn't noticed this until I compared mine with the other moto x from my coworker, and it's only noticeable with white backgrounds like I said.
I just wanted to know if my phone was actually faulty because of this or if this kind of things are normal and that on the same phone model the screen differs on the white calibration or something that makes some of them more yellowish than the others..
Since you have 2 moto x, Can you please when you have the time upload a picture of the 2 of them side by side with a white background so I can see how much do they differ?
Thanks a lot in advance!
PS: so in your opinion for some stuff you prefer the yellowing screen and for some others the whiter one? That's interesting...
Enviado desde mi XT1058 mediante Tapatalk
There is variation in between screens. We are getting consumer grade stuff. I am willing to be the Korean and exynos models of note3 have a lot less variation and higher binned screens. My exynos note2 screen is still fantastic to this day and makes me hesitant to sell it. My note3 has some very minor flaws but it doesn't bother me. My glaxy nexus was pretty good but yellow. My sisters galaxy nexus was two toned. Brighter on top than bottom. Also was darker overall. My nexus one looked great besides the awful and I mean awful over saturation. I would consider two tone screens that are noticeable on any type of contrast being displayed or stripes or smudges that are noticeable on non display/test calibration type stuff to be defective. My note 3 is much whiter than my note2. My note2 definitely has a yellowish tinge to it but it also much brighter and the auto brightness limiter is less noticeable on note2. It is definitely a YMMV.

Hey everyone,
I bought my Moto X a week ago and just yesterday i found a problem with the display. Whenever i tilt my from to view from the sides the display shows a light green tint. While checking the video reviews for the phone almost everyone told the device had great viewing angles but i think mine has a problem. The issue is fairly visible on a white background which is present everywhere on android. When i try to view the display from extreme angles, a weird mix of green and yellow pops up. This is my first time with amoled display so my question to you is that is this normal or is my display defective?

Quite normal, and is inherent to AMOLED displays. Also if you are using a screen protector, this effect will be even more distinct.

I have a similar problem too, perhaps even worse. Sometimes when i try to view the display from extreme angles all i can see is the back of my phone.
That's a relief. I had called for a replacement unit and was little let down because the whole procedure of replacement would have taken about 20 days. But now i am glad to see that this is not an issue. I have never used an amoled panel before but now after your replys i am satisfied. Thanx guys appreciate it.

Haha. That is indeed the solution. You see the display is fine when i am holding the device up front but as soon as i start titlting to any of the sides, the display goes warm and the intensity keeps increasing with the tilt. Its horrible on the extremes but i can live with it. Cheers.
And why exactly are you looking at the screen at an angle?

Well i use my phone mostly in one hand. Though it requires bit of hand gymnastics but i have become accustomed to it. So tilting the phone say to reach the notification bar on top is evident. Try it yourself and you'll understand what i am saying.
Viewing angles are so overrated...
Do you actually use your phone at 160°?
Never ever I had issues with view angles with my phones, not even when I had a simple v300...

Well yes, when i am lying on my bed using my laptop and the phone is placed close to it.
This thread is not about what the phone displays at extreme angles. Its about the warmth displayed with the slightest of tilt. As i earlier said, almost every reviewer of the phone praised the display when viewed at different angles but i am not that happy about it.
I know, but still...
I do notice that the white does not stay as white when I tilt the phone, but I could not care less... In fact I had to take a look how it looks, I never look at the phone like that... And yes, I use the phone while lying in bed...
I'd assume it's a common amoled thing...
You should check an IPS panel, they are supposed to be better than amoled on this regard...

Already did and IPS' display fairly well. To summarize my querry i would say that this is how an amoled panel works. You either love it or you don't.
Anyone else's display seem to have a yellowish tint? Mine seems very yellow looking at it straight on. But when I look at it angled either from the bottom or top it looks perfectly white with just a slight bluish tint. Either way it looks much better than yellow.
So what I'm trying to figure out is of I got a bad unit and if I should go get a new one. Only reason I am even considering not exchanging is the whole "scratchgate" bs.
Anyone care to weigh in?
BTW I have the 64gb black.

Comparing mine next to my LG g3 I noticed a yellow tint as well. Not a deal breaker for me as I rarely compare screen to screen but I've owned a gs2,gs3, and gs4 and there is always some yellowish tint discussion that pops up. You can keep exchanging until you get a more bluish tone but I don't have the energy any more lol. Screen still looks great to me!!
Blame AMOLED tech. Your options right now are a slightly yellow screen with generally more accurate color reproduction or a slightly blue screen with less accurate overall color reproduction but mildly more pleasant whites (to most people).
It wouldn't be a big deal but its really bad because its centered. By that I mean when I look at all the different sides from straight on I can tell they are more blueish and it makes the center look even more yellowed. I realize the amoleds generally run warmer in tone but it seems to me that the whole screen should at least carry the same tone from the same angle. Obviously because of the curved nature the color will shift on the actual edges of the screen but everything else ought to be the same color/tone.
Or am I totally off base here?

Doesn't really answer the question which is...
A: is it possible that my display is defective since it really only shows a warm yellow tone in the center most portion of the screen?
B: is this going to be true for all sgs6e's or is there a chance of having one where the tone is the same throughout the entire display face.
I understand color shifting and how is inevitable, but I would at least like my screen to have the same tone from top to bottom (obviously the edges will have a different tone done they are being seen at an angle when viewing the phone head on) rather than Top:Cold Middle:Warm Bottom:Cold

Just turned on Adaptive Display which seems to make the whole screen more uniform in tone temperature however angles are still a bit of a..... well..... bi*** because they remind me of the pure white coloring I've grown to know so well. But I suppose this is far more livable than before which was almost unbearable (thanks OCD).
May still try to swap for a new unit in a week or so just to see if anything has changed.

I have s6 edge too (32gigs black) (Indian Variant) and I also have the same problem. Coming from note 4 so this yellowish tint really is deal breaker for me!
you sure it isnt the adaptive screen setting?
what I found is if you are using the adaptive screen mode and reading a webpage w/ lots of text, it sometimes will change the tint to warmer which ends up with a yellowish screen instead of white, which may cause you to think that the screen is yellow (thats what I thought the first time I saw it)
try to change the screen type to some other settings and see if that get you the white color?
I am having the same problem. I know it's a defective screen because I have two S6 Edges here.
My black sapphire 32 gb has a white screen
My new gold platinum 64 gb has a yellow screen and its very annoying. I'm probably gonna exchange it

Hello . Please do tell if you use a screen protector film or glass . Cause i have the exact same problem and everybody saye it's the protector but i dont think so . It happend after a bootloop and because the phone turned too hot before i download the stock rom i decided to put it in refrigerator. Battey ran out and when It realized it the phone was too cold maybe next to 0 degree . After the flash was done I noticed the color has changed . So I'm kinda unsure
My XZ3 arrived today and the first thing I noticed is the "noise texture" the screen has, which is pretty noticeable on light colours with brightness under 50%.
Is my model faulty or you noticed this aswell?

It's expecially visibile with gray, atleast on my model. But it can be seen on white aswell. It's like a thin veil of dirt / dust on all the whites (not visible when brightness is at 100%)
seriously a bummer
Not sure if it's simply the dimming effect or you feel the image is grainy but I experience none of this as well. I can't even use full brightness unless I'm out in the sun.

I can clearly see a noisy pattern with lighter colours. It's clearly visibile when for example using google, as if the display was dirty from oil (altough the front glass is not).
Possibly defective unfortunately

My phone has this but I just assumed it was some property of the OLED screen. It doesn't really bother me at all.
I don't think it's deffective, it's just the OLED fabrication process from LG. If you come from a Samsung phone with an OLED screen, you can easily notice the graininess. I had the Pixel 2 XL before the XZ3 which also had an older gen OLED panel made by LG and it exhibited a similar effect on white/gray backgrounds.

The screen is not made by LG but by JDI. I confronted XZ3 display with other OLEDs (s6, s7, iphone xs and oneplus 6t) and the other ones got no effect of that sort.
It's not normal at all. I'd say it's a pretty serious problem regarding bad units of OLEDs since not only it hinders the light colours but it makes the image look less sharp and clear (the colours are not pure, therefore the contrast is hindered).
This worries me since at this point I'm not even sure Sony will recognize the issue.
As I tought I'm not the only one having it but people are not even considering it an issue because they consider it "normal". So much for the phone whose biggest pro was supposed to be the screen.

Unfortunately, you're wrong.
The panel is made by LGD, since JDI is still not mass-producing smartphone OLED panels (expected in 2019).

All of those, except maybe the oneplus, have samsung screens, which is light-years ahead of every other manufacturer.
You can look for the LG V30 and V40 screens. They're in a very similar spot: v30 - 2017 manufacturing process, very noticeable grain; v40 - 2018 manufacturing process, much better screen, less noticeable grain.

I think "the whole world" is a gross overstatement. Sony's mobile division just reported their worst year in sales. They've always been a niche brand, but I don't think the XZ3 sold very well.

Lots of reviewers are calling the XZ3 display as one of the absolute bests (some stating its the best they've ever seen).
Even GSMArena that does lab measurements didnt say anything.
Its as if no one noticed anything.
Its straight out weird and that's why I tought I had a defective unit.

I put my xz3 and my xzp side by side and I think I can see the "noise texture"? Not sure if I really see it, or just my mind thinking that there is one, or I'm just not seeing it at all. Nevertheless, if you think it's an issue, you can try having it sent for warranty? Some people have said it's normal, some have not.

Tried it out in the service test menu > display (all white screen). Also in settings as well. My brightness is up to at least 70% (and tried it with 50), and still not seeing the noise texture. I'm just going to guess now that I don't have that issue, or I really just can't see it. Sorry man.

Don't see it at all, and I've had 3.
Looks as grainy (or lack thereof) as my xz2 premium and xz1p screen
