[Q] Xperia play Screen Tearing issue - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I'm having a weird issue right now. I don't think it's normal (it might be), but what happens is, when there is movement on the screen, It looks like previous frames of the screen are still on. It is a very minor issue right now, (is only noticable in the app drawer with black apps), but I got the phone a week ago, and it is still under warranty, so I might as well get it fixed. (if it really is an issue).
All I did to the phone was install a custom firmware and NXT 2r1, and I think the issue might have been there before, but I'm not sure. I only really noticed it after I installed mxplayer, (because the app is like pure black).
I took a video of how it looked here (focus on the mxplayer app)-
http://youtu.be/zDPQsGG-XKg
I'm not sure if it is a problem or not, so if it is, I might as well get it fixed.
Thanks in advance.

Noticed that ages ago, it happens with the colour red too. I think it's just the display's ageing design.

Alright, so it's nothing to be worried about?
That's good to hear.

All of you are wrong (sorry if im mean here,)
Its because the Xperia play comes default with a screen protector and after a while it like Smudges with the screen and etc.. so it causes this
Nothing to worry about,

Wait, so did I just screw it up permanently buy keeping on the normal screen protector? Cause now I replaced the protector and the effect still remains.

Yes it will stay their for ever, , Because the default screen protector from Sony was actually pretty good and had some sort of oil i think underneeth... But if u leave it its fine, and if u take it off its fine,

I have difficulties believing that: Somehow, a relatively outdated LED screen that has a noticeable delay when cycling between certain colours seems more believable than a vinyl screen protector and its mystery oil that selectively disperses a screen's light even when they're no longer in contact with said screen. What makes you think it's this "oil"?

The oil might just be smudging it in a weird way, but im not 100% Sure, but i changed my screen protectore and it has gotten a bit better,

[Q] New HTC Desire HD Display??

Guys I have just purchased a desire HD.. its an awesum fone...but theres a little annoying issue that i have...i can see the touch matrix under sunlight or bright light when the screen is off & when the screen is on, the touch matrix can be seen as it gives off the impression of little specks of dust particles on whitish backgrounds & tilting the phone a little bit. Is this normal?
Yep that's normal, I can easily see the matrix if I look for it but in everyday use I never take notice.
You see, I like having the screen on It's only a issue if you make it a issue.
Also, there was a thread some time ago where things like these were discussed and we found out that different people have a different size matrix and different size of the dots. Mine are tiny so it's why I take no notice, most probably.

Precisely, on every capacitive touchscreen these dots matrix can be seen.
If that's dust I would take the phone back to where you got it from and demand for another one. I've heard of others saying the same thing and I assure you, there should be no dust under the screen.

Well, I see it, but only in sunlight. When there is sunlight it becomes incredibly easy to see.
I think that everybody has this issue also, but there is nothing to worry about I would hope.

HTC ONE X screen ripple

Hi all.
I returned my black HOX last week because of the screen ripple thing (when you run your finger down the sides of the screen) also the screen seemed to be a tad loose just like so many people have reported on here. So phones4U sent me a white one, I have received it and its worse than the black one now I don't even have to apply any pressure to get the screen ripple. What should I do? should I just put up with the fault or should I change to another phone s3 etc.
Cheers eze

Return it and tell them its a known issue (they should know)
ask for a tested device or enforce a newer batch
SH248 on awards are good
latest SH25 and HT25 seems good
loose screen is a known defect, slight screen ripple on outer edges pressure is normal unless its acting badly

This one is serial SH24, I have literally just had the screen flicker now to, so this phones is defo a faulty one. So the slight screen ripple is normal, I would say my old black one was normal because you had to apply a bit of pressure for the ripple to appear but this white one aint normal. Anyway I have just got of the phone with phones4u and I have managed to arrange to do an exchange in store.

SH23SW, no ripple.
normal is under bit if pressure
I've had two SH25's.
First one had no screen ripple at all but the screen was loose in left bottom corner. I could feel it moving, clicking etc. The backlight was also bleeding from that corner. I returned it and the second one has screen ripple everywhere with light pressure, has a dead pixel and the screen is loose on both sides.
I'm waiting for this one to be replaced. Beginning to wish I wasn't so fussy with the 1st one.
Every HOX will do it under pressure but it shouldn't do it if pressed lightly mines does it but I don't really care as I ain't going to rub sides with a dark screen??

you second hox was defected due to the extra ripple and the first hox was defected due to screen loose
you should expect a defectless hox where the screen is rock rigid and fit on all sides and only slight ripple under pressure to the outside edges
I know, going to hold out for a perfect one now.
On this one you can see a small red light in the top left behind the screen when you are on a call, is this normal? I didn't notice it on the last one.

I dont think he means that, I had that on my original one its the notification led bleeding through the side of the screen and the case, caused by the screen not being glued correctly.
HT25 here and ripples do occur in the middle of the screen with very light pressure. when i press "send" button on SMS app i get a ripple in the middle of the screen. WTF????
I am rooted at this point and not sure if I should screw around with it. What do you guys think?

Be aware of screen defect!

So I got gs3 a week ago and loving it so far. But I started noticing the screen has some issues.
Everytime I am on blank screen with just the back light on, I notice multiple dark circles thru back light. They are about the size of peas and you can only see them in darker room. I am trying to take a picture but still not successful.. again you can not see them in normal light or when you are looking bright images. .you can only see them on blank screen with back light on. (Examples: when you start the phone and only Samsung logo during boot. Or when you go to seetings and choose lock screen, the blank area with back light on shows the defects. )
I hope you guys don't have that issue, because it does bother me when I am using phone at night..
I called tmo to replace it and hopefully new one doesn't have same problem.
Cheers,

You may want a different phone if it bugs you. Purchase a phone with a different style of screen or read the forums before you make a purchase.

Common on amoled screens.
Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi
A simple Google search would of net you the answer. Those are dead pixels almost all amoled screen have does, but if they are really really big you can definitely try to get a warranty. Only thing is your next phone will probably have it too either for better or worse. If it's not too bad I would stay with the phone, technically if you don't think about it you get past it not many times you would notice it anyway.

Screen Burning or Dead Pixels?
I think what you are referring to is screen burning. This case is very common among OLED displays, kind of how plasma TV's have burns on the screen. It's there but its not that bad since this type of technology gets it (for now....the tech is still way too new). However, it helps to not keep the same picture or whatever showing for long periods of time, as this can cause a burning outline of the picture. In this I mean, something that is displayed that doesn't change. Remember some screen may get more burned then others but it will still be there. For the reason of this burning, I'll let you search it up. If that doesn't answer your problem then let me know, but if it is dead pixels (which I dont think it is) then you might want to change it. However, your problem sounds like the common problem called burning.

Its a common thing on all AMOLED phones. It happens during the printing process, nothing to lose sleep over.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
This is very common in all amoled screens. Same was the case with my vibrant. Since these are only visible in a dark room with a black screen, its not that big of a problem, I imagine. It's not so much a defect as it is an aspect of the screen type. Think of it like this... if you purchase a Mac over a Windows computer, it will have aspects that you dislike that the other likely won't have have. But the same is true of the Windows device (although not likely ha)...if it is a deal breaker, avoid amoled in the future.
Have this also, even on Note 2. Especially, while watching Netflix or screen is dark
Seriously there was a long thread about this when the phone first released. Could we not resurrect this?

You might want to exchange that. The definately isn't burning that I am talking about. So yes, go ahead and change that out. I don't have that on my phone so it looks like a defect. Those spots almost look like bloches of some sort and looks as if something had burned underneath. That or one guy said, dead pixels (which is a definate yes for exchange).
So go exchange the product and see how it goes for you.

Well we went through thisnwith the sgs2. People found that exchanges just resulted in more phones just like this. Therw was a whole about it there also. It is a defwct in manufacturing in most oled screens for these phones. People have reported it in their note 2s also.

Anyone had similar problem ?
Maybe is some kind of yellowosh creen problem.

LG G3 camera lens scratches?

Hi all.
I've received my brand new LG G3 32GB international D855. Awesome phone, really.
Anyway I've encountered some hardware related problems:
1st I've noticed that top and bottom of the screen are brighter, but I think it's due to the LCD technology itself (used amoleds in the last 3 years so a different technology with different and, imho, worse problems).
2nd, and the topic of this question, my camera is showing few very light scratches on the back lens. From my tests, fortunately, I realized that they're not visible in any kind of photo.
I used a cover and a screen protector since I unboxed.
My question is: is anyone experiencing similar issue? Is the lens so easy to damage?
I'm pretty worried because my Note 3 never showed a scratch in 7 months used without any kind of protection...
Sent from my LG-D855 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I have also used a bumper case since the 1st day. I checked my camera lens just now and did not notice any scratches. I think it might be a manufacturing fault.
Not sure my G2 had a ton of scratches too but it never came out in photos... so you should be A-OK... maybe just different glass types.
Note 3 has other quality issues *shakes* lol. S Pen die much? lol.
Meanwhile I realised that the issue with the screen is an actual problem called screen bleeding, related to LCD's back illumination.

I've had mine since 2 days prior to main release (know a guy, mwohaha)
I managed to drop it from my hand, when falling asleep in my chair after working with some stuff for 12h straight - it fell on the floor, and slid a good 20-30 cm across dust, and some "gravel particles" from my shoes - camera facing down. NO scratches.
I'm actually quite impressed

If I'm not wrong I have 2 years to have free reparations/replacements right? Scratches aren't affecting my photos and are only barely visible with naked eye and only in determinated light conditions. If the problem becomes worse or photos will deteriorate I'll update this thread with my experience with LG's warranty system.
For now this phone rocks.

I've noticed some "light leaks" on the top and the bottom of the screen. It's nothing so disturbing, but it's not acceptable in a high end phone like the G3. :/
Anyone else noticed this? Is more visible when you're seen a darker color on the entire screen.

I've also, but it's very hard to notice and when watching films or playing games is almost invisible.
Anyway guys I've an update for you: I'm not crazy scratches are very visible under direct light and I'll definely contact the seller...
Little update
Sent the phone back to the shop (yes, directly to the seller because it was less than 10 days I have bought it :victory, it should get there on Monday.
Let's see if the screen leaky borders, creacky cover and most important buttery lens are enough for a replacement :fingers-crossed:
I'll update you when the shop will contact me.
Another and last update
The shop received the faulty phone today and replaced with a new one
I should get it tomorrow :victory:

I'm testing it now, they also replaced the wall charger that produced a kind of electric noise (and I forgot to tell them it did...)
Another update after the screen tests.
EDIT:
Anyway, a note: the "old" G3 had a "tight" USB which was a pain to plug... the new one works as it should
the "old" G3 had orrible blacks... the new one has very darker blacks
The screen still have the barely visible blue bar on top (seem to be a G3 feature) and has little brighter bottom borders... so I think it's the LCD itself and not a defect. I tested the screen with a simple app called something like Screen Test and every color is uniform (no illumination problems, darker bars/leaks, nothing.
THIS PHONE DOESN'T HAVE AM/PM BUG!

LOL, AM/PM bug still present

By any chance can you tell me if you have a model with revised hardware? Because i thought all G3's had a hard to plug in usb (including mine).
About the borders i seem to have them too. I think its normal because i can notice them on all lcd displays like the iphone.
On the lowest screen brigtness, during day light my navigation bar is darker than the black bezel on the phone so i assume that yours is the same correct?
And my charger also starts hissing when charging the phone. Weird thing is it also makes the phone hiss when i have earphones on. I dont know if i should be worried.

By any chance can you tell me if you have a model with revised hardware? Because i thought all G3's had a hard to plug in usb (including mine).

Accessed phone infos from dialer and it says rev 1.0 like the "old" one.
Yeah I've set brightness to auto and the navbar is barely visible, not like an amoled but the "old" phone had blueish black which was horrible while watching movies even in a dark room with brightness set to minimum
And the new wall charger has the same problem so I think it's normal and it shouldn't explode
I'm not sure about the headphones+charger issue, sorry.
I can hear interference with earphones but I'm not sure of what you mean...

Yeah i thought so.
The blacks are normal to be a little bluish. All lcd are like that and even mine to a small degree.
Thank you for your reply lol. Good luck with your phone buddy
Scratched? How about fully cracked!
First - the phone was not dropped or have any impacts other than what you might get from walking with a phone in your pocket. Other than normal daily use, safe handling and really careful use the phone had nothing happen to it. I cannot pick even a medium bump that happened, but now I have a cracked lens with a hole exposing the camera beneath. LG is warning me that 'mishandling' is not covered ... I certainly did not mishandle the phone in any way.
