im new to android
n i didnt insalled any rom by myself,
dey were pre installed
any help plx
is it rom problem or display dieng?
You have screen burn, like you can get on flatscreen TVs. A static image has been left too long on the screen and it's 'burnt' into the display, which is why you can't take a screenshot of it.
See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=772528
so this means my phone is defective?
n one more question ?
im using tango for video call why android camera rotates to 90 degree its really frustrating even in skype u got to hold it horizontaly.
It's not necessarily defective, it will happen to all LED screens eventually, you can mitigate the effects by not having the brightness on full all of the time.
I think the camera issue is a kernel problem, I don't use it so can't help.
Thanks anyway

As em new on android, how can I turn off notifications for specific apps. Like in iPhone there's an option for push notification to turn off for all apps or some.
N what is background data?

These are things that you could quite easily look up yourself. I think you're getting push email and notifications mixed up.
To stop apps displaying stuff in the notification bar you will have to go into the settings for those individual apps.
As for background data, well; surprisingly, it means data traffic in the background: twitter, facebook, google sync. etc.
It's a great app that dims the screen and make it easier for the eyes, but I found one major bug today. While the filter is on, you wouldn't be able to install any apk's. The button is there, but you can't click it, you can only cancel. Basically it feels like your touchscreen has a dead spot right on the button.
Anyways I was panicking thinking my nexus 7 went crazy, and I uninstalled a lot of apps just to find the culprit. So this is just hoping no one else panic like I did. I also already emailed the developer.
1. It was discussed before, use search.
2. Stop using that crappy app and use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.omegacentauri.ScreenDim.Full for reading.

Um, I use that app, but it doesn't dim it lower than the system does. I just use it to quickly adjust the brightness instead of going into the settings.
EDIT: Yeah, I'm an idiot. That's not the same app I use. Just looks very, very similar. None the less, I tried the free version and it did not get noticeably dimmer.
I'm using the app '2x battery' which also has a screen filter feature, no problems in use, also seeing as I paid up for it it allows to filter by colours, so have set it to fade in a purply filter which basically reduces the green tinge my screen has, took some fiddling to get nice result but got double whammy of screen a little dimmer for indoor use and better colour balance, no lag or Faff so far.
Free version just allows a standard dimmer fine for most scenarios

Well I think screen filter is simple and it e works very well. I'm going to continue to use it, just have to turn it off if I'm installing apk's
I use 'Night Mode'

I am using screen filter with Sony bravia engine and it all works great. screen filter still gets blurry at lower dimness though.
Try Root dim or Voodoo display filter. Both are great for the purpose.

This thread I'm only taking about the specific app named "screen filter" though, just so people won't get confused. It works great btw, the screen can get as dim as you want.

The app you want to use is Custom Auto Brightness by Dmitry Matuzko. It lets you set brightness levels based on your light sensor and has the option to use screen brightnesses lower than the programmed limit without using overlays. Obviously you won't be able to go lower than the hardwares limit, but in most cases the manufacturer sets the software limit much higher than the hardware limit.
Onibabar UpdateUpdate
Thanks for posting this thread! I don't even use a "screen filtering" app BUT I was having the same issue were my INSTALL BUTTON was no longer working, and because of this thread I now knew at what sort of 3rd party apps to start looking at. At first I thought it was the ROM I was on, then I thought it was only on 4.2.2 ROMs since it happened on more then one of my setups, and finally, I thought it was a Mod I always use, that gives my phone inverted apps. In the end though, it turned out to be the latest update to the Onibabar app from the Play Store. Its a app that places a battery bar on your screen and the latest update allows it to be positioned going down on either the right or left side of the screen, in addition to the top or bottom. So whenever its set to go on the left or right side, it disables the INSTALL BUTTON when attempting to install an app from a file explorer...
Is it possible to change the screen color calibration other than just changing from Dynamic to movie / professional modes?
The biggest thing that bothers me about the Note 3 is that whites appear a cool blue, and not white especially on web pages and Facebook. Is this something that is possible to fix with a calibration or kernel or something?
There was a kernel for the galaxy s3, note 2 and s4 that had a very deep settings menu for color calibration (perseus kernel), but it only worked on exynos based devices, the dev said it was not possible for him to do the same thing on the ones with snapdragon because of a driver issue.. I will wait sit for this, at least you have a cool screen, mine is green and horrible. Let me suggest "filter my screen" on the play store , its just a filter, and it ruins pure blacks, but with it on the whites are decent now.
Thanks. Does anyone know anything else that may work?
Open the settings menu, tap the device tab and scroll down to accessibility. Turn on "color adjustment". Now you are suppose to tap the color box that closest represents the box shown. You can repeat this process over by pressing menu.
its been 20 days i got the rog 2 and things i find annoying are
1. the whole screen flashes green when FPS is scanning my finger (MKBHD also discussed this in his review)
2. when you double click the power button a yellow border flashes around wallpaper on lock screen ( this only happens when you have two different wallpapers for lock screen and home screen )
3. when i open armory crate and exit, it automatically becomes default home app.
4. i disabled some google apps (chrome,duo,youtube,photos) but these apps are automatically enabled and updated every morning.
5. lastly RED TINT

i think u have played with some option from the developer mode go there and try to turn things off and see how that goes
if not then a factory reset could do something for u if its a developer option thing

Firstly what firmware version you on? Maybe more details would help
1. I don't get a screen full of green, but the screen is slightly brightened with a greenish brightness. I assume this is the issue. Most phones (inc Oneplus phones) with optic FPS do this as the bright green FPS light also partly turns on other oled pixels. Some other manufacturers lower the brightness of the finger print sensor light, which then has the effect of inaccurate print reads. I dunno, I like how fast the FPS unlocks the phone, its one of the quickest - if the slightly brightened screen is the sacrifice, I'm ok with that :good:
2. I can't replicate this
3. I can't replicate this
4. Why do you need to disable these core google apps?
5. Red tint is hardware - its been slightly improved with the latest WW-16.0631.1910.35 firmware, but this oled screen has a dominant red gamut - every oled screen has a dominant colour (either blue, red or green) so just have to deal with it. :good:

im on the latest ww firmware.
some users on reddit also reported that there home app is changing when they open and exit armory crate,
i use firefox and youtube vanced instead of chrome and youtube so i disabled them and i dont use duo or photos app either. i dont understand how these apps are getting enabled on their own and auto updating every morning? what kinda black magic is this?
So I bought my S21 Ultra last Friday. I lie with my mobile in bed late at night with brightness at its lowest with "dark mode". Notice that when I have dark gray backgrounds and open the keyboard, horizontal lines appear (thin light lines). They disappear as soon as I close the keyboard.
Someone who can test if you see the same thing?
So If I sent it back to samsung I can say that i have asked owners and they dont have that problem.
1 set brightness at minimum
2 darkmode on
3 120hz on
4 high contrast on keyboard
5 total black rooms
6 open play store and press search so keyboard appears
7 now I see thin lines (which disappears completely when I close the keyboard)
It looks like this
If it is application dependent (appears only when the keyboard is active), it might be a software alrifact.
Also, please bear in mind that OLED displays, when set to minimum brightness, might have a problem with displaying uniform colors. You might see clusters of tens of pixels that are just a tad bit brighter than the ones around. I've noticed this with every OLED display I have used in the last decade or so.

Ok thank you.
Yes it's only showing when i use the keyboard.
My old note 10 plus did not have this problem.
Different screen, different version of Android and Oneui, maybe even different keyboard, keyboard version or theme.

What model, carrier and software build do you have?
Software build: (settings > about phone > software information - last 4 digits of SW build number)
Is this happening in all the apps? or just the email as shown in the picture?
try it on safe mode and see if it still happens. maybe you are using a third party keyboard?

Display issue at 120hz and low brightness
My note 20 ultra has vague gray horizontal lines when displaying a gray background at the lowest brightness when running at 120Hz but it disappears at when the brightness increases or when switching to 60hz. Is this normal for AMOLED displays ?

Strange no one can test it so when i send it to samsung and maybe get a new phone and the same thing will show on that one to..
