Nexus 5 with horizontal line - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have a new nexus 5x that I got from lg and when I swipe to the right or scroll down the screen a horizontal line that looks like it is pixelated. Also when i go to the phone dialer it always shows up. Included pics. Has anyone else had this problem.

Contact play store for warranty exchange.

I purchased from LG but it almost seems like it is a software glitch or a touchscreen issue maybe cable lose or something like that

Nothing like that.

Definitely a defective screen...

Screen defect

My Galaxy Nexus got a straight line from top to bottom trough the screen.
Its like a whole line of leds dont work properly.
On black, its a green line, on grey its a white line, on blue its a blue line, but i can still see it.
Ive been verry carefull with this device, never dropped it or annything so it will be a warrenty thing, but it sucks..
The store where i bought it is checking if it can be swapped with a new one... Else i have to use one of my old phones and wait 1 till 3 weeks until samsung repairs it... (comin from a Gnexus everything is a big step back)
Does annybody else hade the same problem and what can it be??
Just a bad screen, they'll fix it or replace it

My wife's Nexus has the EXACT same issue. It's a pretty thick green line going from top to bottom. Going to Verizon to swap it as we speak. She had dropped her phone but the screen was fine right afterwards but shortly after the line appeared. Not sure if it's related but gonna get this sucker swapped ASAP.

Black dots on the screen?

Hi. I bought a galaxy nexus today.
When i have the phone on and the screen is black then i can see some black parts(the screen is black, but there's some parts that are extra black). Is this normal? Or is the screen broken? Going to post a picture soon.
Btw my dad dropped the phone today. Maybe it's because of that?
Thanks in advance

This happens on my screen too. It is only really visible in a dark room when the screen is black like when FaceBook is loading a picture. I also get the black dots and a black line horizontally across the whole screen. I never really thought much of it because those pixels seem to work fine under normal conditions.

Normal.

Ive noticed it on mine too. Hasn't really bothered me since its hardly noticeable. I think it is worth mentioning that my dots aren't like single pixels. It is more like a blotch or a cluster.
I have a Galaxy SII (TMO) and sounds like this is similar to the issue we are all suffering from. Here's a link discussing it - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300133

Okay thanks

Transformer Prime has tons of black dots.. i'm guessing it is the touch sensing stuff on the glass/under the glass

[AT&T] Uneven Screen Brightness?

Does anyone else have this issue with their GS3 screen? My screen is slightly dimmer on the bottom part of the phone, or maybe tinted blue. Because of this unevenness, it leads to an annoying gradient effect on nearly every website with a white/grey background. I talked to a AT&T rep in store, and he said that this was perfectly normal even though their display units didn't have this issue. Is this normal, or am I just being super picky?
Attached are some hastily taken pictures.
It's not normal. Insist on exchanging it, or go to another store.
Definitely not, have you dropped it? Or you bought it like that? Deff get it replaced

Thanks for the input guys, I'll hit another AT&T store and see what they have to say. And it hasn't been dropped or anything, it's been like that since day 1.
Did you manage to change your phone? I have the same problem with my international version.

I've had 4 phones in a row with this problem. I'm getting one more replacement (blue this time, not white), and then I'm jumping ship on the S3.

Galaxy Nexus Screen

Question for you all.
I paid for a gn from the Google play store. Got it, love it. It did ship with 2-3 bad pixels. So I called Samsung and they sent me a replacement. Got it today. No bad pixels, but..... the screen color is messed up. The left side of the screen is normal but the right side has a reddish hue to it. No big deal, except it is. And its driving me crazy. Has anyone else has screen issues like this?
Also, this happens/happened on BOTH gn that I had. I have the stock jellybean wallpaper up, I open the dialer and let it sit there. Then I hit the home button and the screen still shows the ghost image of the dialer numbers, then it fades away. It is very similar to the image burn in of an LCD or Plasma TV. But it is faint and fades in a few seconds. Has anyone else noticed this? I have had several other android phones, and none did this.
Thoughts?

The ghosting effect is pretty normal however that goes away after awhile and doesn't always happen, something with the OLED screen. However, the reddish hue on the other half of the screen seems to be a problem as I've never heard of that happening before.
Exchange it right away. Many Nexus' have screen problems but there are those that are without any / minimal. I wouldn't settle until I got a screen without any discolorations and any ghosting, especially since it is new.

Anyone have like a light red/pinkish hue tint along the bottom of the screen and edge

I dont know if my eyes are just completely bugging out or if what im seeing is true. I got my replacement note 7 yesterday and everything went well but then i saw a red/pink tint towards the bottom of the screen i started to freak out but decided that i would let it fly til Monday or so hoping that its just glue or something drying up. Its more noticeable when the screen is on a full white screen or if the bottom/edge part of the screen is white but other than that you can't see it at all.

Sounds like a display issue. My Note 4 had half the screen streaked/covered with a similar color. It was really similar to what the blue-light filter looks like when turned about half way up actually. But it was only on about half the display, and in streaks so was more of a bother because it wasn't the entire screen. I honestly only really noticed it when I was reading my kindle app on my phone with the lights turned off, otherwise it really wasn't very noticeable in normal lighting conditions. Upon reading about this on google this can happen to these kinds of displays that Samsung uses. Might be something to send the phone back for a replacement. I'd really have to see a pic to know enough to know for sure though.
Sounds like a defect. Bound to be a few. Try massaging that area of the screen fairly hard and see if there is any change.

I had that issue on my silver Note 7 and opt to exchange it (after many rounds of persuasion and complaints with at least 3 Samsung technicians). Some see it, some don't. This happened right before the recall.
Thought it was only a random unit of mine, but since you also raised this issue, could be more widespread. FYI, my unit was international version. Also same pinkish hue at the bottom. My replacement unit (before the recall) did not have this issue.
My note 7 recall replacement is not here yet (Samsung announced our replacement only available officially on 29 Sept in my country). I too hope my recalled-replacement will not have the pink hue at the bottom of the screen.
