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.

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!
So I just got my phone a few days ago and while browsing the web I noticed my screen sometimes loses color? Like it goes black and while lines like a static from a tv. Not that bad but it is getting worse. Should I return the phone or what? Is this the same problem with lines and blobs everybody else is having?

Your the first person I have heard have this issue. Best thing to due is return it back to stock if you have modded it and get it replaced. Something is wrong with your phone and should definitely be replaced.

are you sure maybe it's not the AutoBrightness acting up?
try with auto brightness disabled
Would that cause it? I usually have my brightness on high though, which it was at the time.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
this is definitely a new and unique, almist certainly, hardware fault. Reset factory settings and return.
Sounds like he's mistakenly referring to the known "checkerboarding" issue in the stock browser as black & whites lines from a TV...
Just my two cents..

No, that would not cause it. The symptom of that issue is fluctuating brightness not color dropping out. The problem could be a bad video connector or cable in the phone, or a bad display panel. Take it back while you can.

Make sure that it is your phone and not the app or game you're playing that is faulty.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?
just like the tittle says, any updates?
Nope.

It has nothing to do with trust. He clearly stated his agenda and never gave a timeframe. He even stated a few times he was working on the note abd other phones first since they were easier fixes than our "black sheep" of a phone. He is well know and i wouldnt think that hed take a phone just to take it and not evetually work on it.

The blobs that everyone donated for was clearly a possible hardware issue which means that nobody would be able to fix it without mods made by hand. At best all he could do was look into it. Its not his fault people paid for a new phone just to look into it.
The whole situation is analogous to if Samsung released a new phone where a quarter of them had bad search buttons. It could be a software issue but likely a hardware problem with QA. Instead of exchanging the phone people then proceeded to setup a bounty to buy a new phone to get this fixed. Its looked into and it turns out its just a bad solder connecting the search button. This would of been likely in the first place and people should of just exchanged their phone rather than setting up a bounty for something which has a fair likelihood of being a hardware issue.
You have a hardware issue then exchange your phone.
If the blobs bother you exchange your phone. If the blobs only bother you when you have to follow a page of instructions on how to see it, really. If you need to follow a multi step guide to see it then its not that big of a deal. If it is then exchange your phone.
Just curious...
Anyone play the game Osmos....that will really show off your lines and blobs if you play it in a low light enviornment or at night.

I play it I notice it with auto brightness on mines so it doesn't bother me. Since my lines are not visible with auto brightness off. It doesn't bother me. Auto brightness is buggy on this phone. Anyway doesn't seem to accurate.

Yeaaa I turned brightness all the way up and it is much better of course but it is just unfortunate that this bandaid is the end all solution. The battery when playing a game and having the brightness all the way up gets effed.

I don't have to do that when auto brightness is on for me I have lines. When it's off at the lowest brightness no lines. If I can't see in the sun I just slide my fingers across the status bar to adjust.

Hmmm is it safe to say that the supercurio project for the t989 is dead???
I know this has been mentioned before, but it is to the point now where I'm thinking about giving up entirely on my ONE.
Im now on my third replacement device, all three have had the rattling noise whenever the vibrate is activated. So frustrating..
How is everyone else dealing with this? or are there really only a few devices with this issue and i'm just unlucky??
Sounds normal

Does this occur regardless if it's on a hard surface, soft surface or in your hand? I'm guessing so, but just wanted to be sure.

YES, surface doesnt change it, even positon of the device (ie. upright, horizontally etc.) could this really just be a fluke? 3 devices in a row like this??

I had never heard of the problem before so that's why I asked...it's super strange you've had the issue on 3 different devices.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If something is loose in the phone then it would rattle just from shaking it. Maybe try to find someone else that has a one and listen to how theirs sounds when the vibrate goes off. My suggestion would to be just turn it off but if you're rooted and s off then a custom kernel can be used to turn the vibrate strength down and maybe lessen this "noise".

Recently my Tab 3 has been acting a bit weird. Currently it is not rooted and is only a few months old. The other day the screen would go from dim to bright and then black out. Sometimes while doing this the screen would turn a grayish color with vertical white lines. Even though this is happening it always comes back to normal. Has anyone experienced this and if so what is going on an what can I do to fix it.
The only thing I can think of is its the LCD panel going haywire. I'll notice mine flickering in the background while on a white screen so potentially I could have the same problem later down the road.
Sorry not much help, but it is a hardware problem

I never do warranty, but I'm pretty sure it would. Unless if someone else can chime in on this. But I'd get it checked out before it does get any worse then what it is.
If your rooted, unroot before you do and try to Odin back to stock or they'll tell you rooting was your problem which it never is lol
