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.

Well looks like my play has got the gray screen debating whether I'll keep it or not since I got the Xperia ion. I know I can fix it just need to fix the video cable I think that's what causes the gray screen.

It is NOT AS SERIOUS as on this image(its a image from google)
On my display there are maybe 8 small dots and a little bigger one in the screen corner. It is only visible on a totally black wallpaper.
What is it????

Does it only appear on a completely black screen?
Mine 2 appear only when the screen is completely black...not off but when it is completely black like in a wallpaper or video

If you're talking about the individual pixels that stand out, then you may have a few stuck pixels... not dead pixels... stuck pixels. This is indicative of a damaged and/or defective panel. Truthfully, other than an RMA or replacing the panel, there's not much you can do about this.
However, if you're talking about the black splotches on the screen, that's a frequently occurring anomaly common to OLED displays. It's called miura, and it's perfectly normal. It's not a manufacturing defect and it's not a sign of damage to the panel. Furthermore, it should only be noticeable on a completely black screen and in a nearly pitch black environment, like in a very dark room.
For your sake, I really hope you were talking about the splotches and not the funky pixels. I hope this has been informative and/or useful/helpful. Take care and have a good one man!

Hi... Just bought xperia Ion (no LTE) and one of the main reason I selected it is for the camera resolution.... but with big surprise I'm just noticing that pictures are very bad... lot of noise!
Additionally the camera focus is extremely slow!.... Did anyone experience the same?... I'm on last official firmware. Maybe some mod is available.....
Any help is really appreciated....
Set ISO setting to 800

You can install Lovins mod. He port Xperia V camera with additional tweaks. I am using it on my SXS, focus and photo quality is much better than stock(.55)

Believe me....I had Xperia Arc and photos were much better...I also have Nokia N8 and pictures are just amazing! I like Xperia ION, but unless my camera has hw issues, the photos are simply very low level ones!...What is really disappointing me (along with the Jpeg noise) is the extremely slow focus during camera recording as well...also not available the touch focus!.....Anyway I m going to try the mod you suggested.....
Just quick updating: I installed the camera mod and did some tests. In outdoor light condition autofocus is very quick and pictures are great! Indoor light condition (morning not night), camera focus seems slightly more responsive if physical picture button is used, but autofocus becomes very slow and 30% of the pictures are out of focus. I will continue in playing with setting but I have doubt I could get good behavior in indoor condition!...Anyway, reading in the network, the very slow focus problem is well known issue! (((

This should be software problem
Sony is not good at modifying CameraUI:silly:
Sad but true, my ion cant take pictures as good as my n8. Auto modes dont help much either. I noticed that while taking a few videos on low light using yhe different modes, camera just wont focus when zooming in. I had to tweak some settings( set focus to infinite) to get the image to focus correctly( running xzxperience by the way). Tweaking the settings manually definitelt improves results though. I expected a bit more from sony? Guess I wont be selling my N8 any time soon.

The camera sucks when u take photos from places there are Yellow light, warm light for example in your house. this photos lose quality, but if u use the video cam from those places, u will notice lot of noise..
I have that problem , my cam works 100% in places there are lightday for example in the street, if u take a photo there, the pic will have a nice quality and if u use the videocam u wont see noise.
I think that this problem is software.. i have xperia ion ics version 6.1.c.1.111, but when i had the version 6.1.c.1.105 the camera worked much better

Where is Lovins mod?
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?

I noticed on my new note on dark backgrounds some screen issues. I noticed a purpleish smear when i scroll on some dark background pages. Especially when i was scrolling thru a page here on xda on gray images a purple color smear would appear. Did anybody else come across this issue? Im exchanging it for another one tomorrow.

It won't matter if you exchange it or not. The new screen technology makes the pixels actually turn off so blacks are true blacks. When they turn back on it causes that purple smear, or at least that's the theory prior are saying in other threads about this issue.

Interesting thank you for the info...i just read that the s4 experiences the same problem. A 700 dollar phone i dont think this should be an issue.

I'm noticing this on Tapatalk right now - the purple smear with the brightness all the way down. I don't know about the color, but the squish blurred effect is surely intentional. I'll try messing with some of the color settings to see if it's affected.
