Black spot on screen

Whenever my screen displays a black color in a certain few spots,you can see a weird black spot underneath that looks like oil leaking into the screen. You can only see this when the screen is dark and everything else works fine. Do you think this will be a big problem?

All amoled phones have that. It looks like an ink spots or blotches. You can only see it in a pitch black room. Its not a problem and shouldn't be noticeable during regular use. You can get an app called LCD screen test if you really want to see the blotches in a dark room
..but I wouldn't worry about it!

Thanks, I was a bit worried that it might cause hardware problems in the future

Cracked screen causing color issues?

I recently cracked my screen just one hairline across the screen. I put my phone next to my friends s3 and not only does his screen look brighter but there is colors look better and clearer on his phone. My phone feels foggy almost. I'm getting it fixed by samsung but do u think the repair will fix this color issue I'm having? Never noticed and I'm kinda jealous of his device and the way things look. Any insight is appreciated.

Can you tell if you cracked just the glass or the touchscreen part, etc?
It might just be he has brightness or something turned up

It cant be his screen settings I tried now on mulitple s3s and my screen looks foggy and less bright.. my screen works fine but this color thing bothers me. I tried it on full brightness with bith devices.. does anyone know if a cracked screen repair from sammy would fix this?

You sure you have checked in "brightness" AND "Screen mode" settings ?
But if Samsung are repairing it then why worry as you should get it back all sorted out.

This version of the s3 does not have screen mode settings.. ita forsure a problem with my screen.

Dirt under screen?

Guys I noticed something really annoying where as when there is a white background application like play store, WhatsApp, even xda I could see some particles that are not moving when I'm scrolling. I thought it was screen protector so I removed it, cleaned the screen and I could still see these particles which I guess they are dirty. Our are they something else maybe screen is damaged? And if it's dirt how did it get in there? It's only a month used.
If you could try it with me on your note 2 that would be great.
Put brightness on maximum no auto. Open play store and look closely and scroll to see any stable Black dots.

If you mean that white things aren't really white like other devices and somehow has black spots, than thats normal I guess.. I have the same thing.. that annoyed me for a while but I became used to it.
It might be something to do with non-Pentile amoled screen.

Yes. And not only the whites any other bright colour like here in xda u can see black spots, very tiny but plenty that they are obvious. I just want a confirmation if that is dirt and not my screen is faulty somehow.

Dead pixels perhaps?

[Q] Pink screen with lines?

Sometimes when I wake my phone up, there is a pink screen with white lines. This prevents me from seeing whats on the screen. Can someone explain to me what the cause of this may be?

My guess is that your flex cable could be starting to have problems. Do a You Tube search for "Flex Cable Xperia Play" to see if some of those videos look like what you're experiencing.

ZL washed out screen

I don't know about your ZL but the screen on mine is washed out a milky faded dull panel and it's plain to see when I compare it to other phones I remember the ZL I viewed in the Sony store to be a little better then this one.

Did you turn off the Bravia engine? Or play with the white balance?

No and the Bravia engine is only for photos and video ? and the ZL is not my only phone as I have 4 others to compare it to, now tft lcd screens are known for there lack of contrast and poor viewing angles but even my Xperia T can seem more vibrant at times.

I think either your LCD is not genuine or you might have changed any system settings using root.. you better try to change your LCD which will cost you around 5500/- INR.
