Hi all,
There is no problem on my One X screen, but recently when I run an App called 'Android Usenet' reader, I notice that there are some ripples 'diffuse' from bottom of screen to the top (please see attachment).
I switch to a blank white screen, but can't find the ripples, so it probably not a screen defect.
Is it some kind of dithering pattern or others?
Please advise.....

May be it's an app defect. Don't worry, just check with other apps.

Hello,
After reading a worryingly big number of posts about both software and hardware glitches on the One X, I thought about compiling a list of things to check for if one is to get their device from the store (as I am intending). A quick check list of all the glitches that were reported *and* can be reproduced/checked for in the store. I imagine this would save a lot of people the hassle of returning faulty devices and whatnot.
So, any advice?
Edit:
Coffmad's:
1- GPU glitches: Watch a +1 min video on YouTube.
2- Yellow dots (I think): Google Images "white" and "black" to get fullscreen white/black backgrounds.
3- Check over the body for dinks and/or scratches.
the main things id do it watch a full youtube video (1 min should do it)
check the screen on fully white and black background, not switched off, but an actual black image
and just check over the body for any dinks or scratches
Open phone dialer and press *#*#3424#*#* test all that you can test. Will give you a good idea if sensors are working as they should be.

Open maps and make sure you get a solid lock, my first one had faulty GPS and was flying all over the place

Dead pixels - any other screen issues. Power-on the phone, then press the task manager softkey after the first menu prompt. That should make most of the screen dark grey, enough to check for any spots of white.
please try this in your phone .set your brightness in lowest .For me it's most noticeable when i'm scrolling slowly, e.g. when in the settings menu, or the twitter app. Try scrolling very slow up or down in settings,.
I think this should be common problem .please test your one .
Yes that happens, but it is not an actual screen flickering issue, rather an optical illusion created by textured backgrounds. I don’t use twitter, therefore not sure what kind of a background it has, but if you look closely at the white background displayed in phone settings, you will see that it has a textured background with very thin diagonal lines. Its more visible when the brightness is low because otherwise the lines are too light to be noticed.
Go to this page and scroll the page, you will see the same flickering effect on your computer monitor

this link shows the problem that I have with my phone .in this link I see same flickering and I understand this is a optical illusion .but I think our phones problem is not a optical illusion .because I tried several htc one x ,30% of them had this problem .also you can find this problem in any white page.
Can you find this flickering in your phone ?
what about others ?
Just as well I'm using auto brightness - no issues for me!
Seriously, are you trying to find problems??
Try with screen filter app. It flickering a lot

I can ONLY see the flickering effect in the settings page. It doesn't happen on any other normal white backgrounds. That is why I said it is an optical illusion.

Turn on auto brightness like a normal person
A very small part of the screen is White spots! Pixels may be burned? Is there a way to get this problem solved?
make a screenshot and open in PC. if the white spots is on screenshot, is it SW bug
if not, must supersede display
Look up the phone, I can not find a spot, but I find spot when I look at the angle of the screen

Hi everyone, just wanted to check and ask if some users also has this on the upper portion of the screen, is this white inconsistency bleeding? please check using LCD test on black background on 100 percent brightness. it is not noticeable on normal conditions though. Thanks.
Yup. Got it on the left-upper corner of lcd. But it has shown only after recent installation of Xenon HD ROM.
I know this isn't really light bleed, given its an AMOLED screen... But when on the home screen with a black image, there is what looks like light bleed across the top of the screen. This only happens on the home screen. Any ideas?
I have the same effect up top... It's like the notification area is glowing a bit so you know it's there.

If you took a screenshot of your phone's screen and the effect is there, it means it's not your hardware. Screenshots don't actually capture what you see through the panel. Just like you can't see burn in with a screenshot you can't see light bleed or any kind of panel deformation as well.

Yes, I understand it's not hardware... But it's an issue none the less...
You can see it in the top of the image I attached in my original post. It is only persent on the home screen, and it's really annoying. It's extremely obvious with a black wallpaper.
Yeah it's that particular wallpaper of Pluto or Earth. I get the same thing. In fact, try sliding over to the left where Google news feed is and put it in between screens. You can see it sliding to the top. It's even more pronounced when you switch the display theme to daylight instead of automatic.
In other words, Google has to fix their wallpapers. Nothing to see here. It's not light bleed and I would change the title of this thread to make it less confusing.

It is not just the Google wallpapers... It is literally any wallpaper that's dark enough.
Then it's the Google launcher. The point is there is nothing wrong with the display.

I'm well aware is not my hardware. Read my original post, I clearly said I know it's not the display. Light bleed is not possible on an AMOLED screen... And also not selective to the home screen only.
Just because it's software doesn't mean it's not an issue..
It's not a bug, it's here to prevent Burn-in. It's also visible on the bottom. I saw it with a grey wallpaper, I didn't see the line of the nav bar but on the home screen I did. Like I said, it's here to prevent Burn-in.

This is correct. It is there for a reason from Google.
