I was just looking through the Droid Razr forum just checking things out, and came across a few complaints about screen blotches and lines when displaying black/dark images, in low lit conditions... what is going on with these Super AMOLED Plus displays? And why just the t989 and Razr??

unfortunately i dont think its a software fix, cause they dont move. I think its a hardware issue.

I wouldn't be surprised if the blotches and lines are on HTC phones. You'll probably won't see it. Samsung might have set auto brightness too ridiculously low. twenty percent is about the lowest HTC phones can go. I think someone said in a review galaxy nexus suffers from the same problem. Also we seem to get the best end of the stick. Because the Droid razor has the problem the worst.

Either I don't have this issue, or my eyesight is getting really bad. I tried the low light test, and did not see red lines or blotchiness. Think this is just affecting a portion of the panels?

no offense, but its probably the latter, cause i haven't seen any other devices that DONT have the issue, I've been through 3 myself, and have played with/inspected dozens..... If you dont have the issues, you've got the holy grail bro, hang onto it and be careful not to drop it on the screen, cause if they replace it, it will 99.9% be the blotchy one we all have. Although, i must say, my newest device also has the latest box date and the problem is the least noticeable ive had/seen yet.

I too do not have this issue. My gs2 has been perfect since day one, but I work for Tmobile in the financial care area so our shipments come from a different warehouse than most others

Pics please! I'm not requesting this on hopes of proving those wrong who says they have the "perfect" display. Proof of this will help with narrowing down whether this is just "normal" within the way the manufacturer process these displays or it'll prove that there is an inconsistency with these display with certain sgs2 units, which basically will lead to be a defect.
I'm just sayin!
If there's actual proof showing that some Tmobile units do not suffer with these lines and blotches, this will be definite grounds on requesting samsung to fix this issue!
I'm just sayin!
Just a little heads up, I don't know if anyone has faced similar problems, but I just had to replace my phone on warranty, because as soon as i place a call, the screen would go black, and never wake up, leaving me unable to hang up or work automated systems
If I was helpful, give thanks

That would be my guess. The phone goes black so you don't press buttons with your face and is supposed to come back on when pulled away...for those that were not knowing what the issue was

Hey guys,
Wanted to know if anyone is having an issue with Gnex speaker.
When the speaker makes a sound, as in locks, key tap, volume up down sound, anything, it hisses for a couple of seconds then like cuts out with a CB like noise. Soooo annoying!!!
Cheers is advance. = )
Yes this is annoying. It happens to everyone with sounds enabled.

You just aren't noticing it. Play a sound with your head up to the speaker and when the sound stops, you will hear a VERY FAINT hiss and then pop.
It's been noted by many users on the google bugs forum. It's annoying.
I assumed it was just really bad recordings? I was going to pull and re-sample my ringtone and SMS tones to see if I could fix it, might not be worth the effort if it's the phone.
So its normal?? Really?
Geez, that's a bummer, pretty annoying and very, I dunno, cheap. = (
I was hoping it was just me. So it could indeed be fixed with software?
I thought it might of been the hardware. = / Good and bad news in a way. So there's nothing we can do atm is there?
Thanks guys.
I gave friend also who has a Gnex and his has no noise like this at all. It's sweet.
This is strange.

Was he using a custom rom?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
No that's the confusing part. I have another thread asking about firmware updates aswell...not going to bring that into this but he's on 4.0.3....isn't the latest 4.0.2?
Anyway, so your thinking if you wanted to you could change roms and it would get rid of that noise?
ive noticed ive ran into this issue only when using volume+
Oh really?
Nah I have it just straight out of the box.
I just got a replacement Gnex and its still doing this f'king noise!!! Its so annoying!! What can I do??

Every model at best buy had this problem so we're not alone. There was a thread somewhere about manipulating the audio flinger. Mine is only noticeable in dead silence.

Yeah same. Its not that bad I spose but when I hear it I cringe a little. Haha.
So there is a way to fix it? I'd have to root wouldn't I....
What builds do you guys have?
Could you post? I'm doing a little brainstorming here and if its the build, I'm gonna change!! Haha.
Thanks I'm advance. = )
Do any of you actually realize that every speaker on the planet does this?
Apply power to speaker, it will hiss. Cut power from speaker, it will pop.
And seriously, why are any of you putting your ear up to the speaker port anyways? You do realize you must look like fools...
Why bother taking your case off, or wearing out the battery cover clips, or move more the necessarily?
This has never failed me.
Yes. To be honest, though, I always thought that it was power+volume up.
nope, just one button.

I don't believe you
Holding it down for around 10 seconds will also do a soft reboot.
You can also open up your dialer and punch in *#350# to do a full reboot.
Thanks for the tip, as a new E4GT and Droid user all these tips and tricks are helpful!
you would think this would be a universal feature on all electronics by now.

Wait, what? This is news to people? Every phone and computer I've ever owned does this. And it's listed in the manual for our phone. I'm sorry, is this supposed to be a joke I'm missing or something?
I'm sure it's to inform people who didn't know.

When people are shocked that you can "quickly and easily" adjust the brightness of your screen by sliding your finger across the notification menu, then yes, this is definitely ground-breaking news.
Any owner's manual typically holds a few nuggets of awesome like this.

there is so many little things this phone can do that completely amaze me lol still finding out more to, coming from a samsung moment
I miss that Iphone feature that lets you know you made a good connection and the phone is charging. I have come downstairs a few mornings and found a dead or nearly dead One X because of bad charger connection, a plug in notification would be a big help. Anyone know of a way to enable this?
so, looking at the green led isnt enough??

Thanks for that, that pointed me in the right direction. Tasker was a little extreme but I found something called AutomateIt that does exactly what I wanted, my phone now plays a different notification for both charger plug and unplug. Free also, life is good.
