Hey guys - anyone else been getting screen flickering on their HOX-quadcore?
Only seems to happen in certain situations, but normally when a dialogue box is open over top of a white background does it do it.. But it doesn't ALWAYS do it either... Seems to be based on the background lighting in the room?
Also seems quite prominent under Fluro-tube lights.
Other than this one thing - i freakin LOVE this phone

Are you serious?! There are already 2 major threads about it. For example:

You didn't search did you ?
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

These spots are very very low color. It is almost like a blur mode and It is not easy to see

I don't see any white spots?
Yeah they didnt capture on the screen shot which makes me think theyre something with the back light ?
In dark(No light), My htc 10 shows me white points on screen during zoom in camera mode and video mode).
Fully zoomed in, and take a picture, my picture shows white points. THIS IS SO TERRIBLE. I JUST GOT 2 DAYS.

White points? The grid squares? You can turn those off under the camera settings. Otherwise, I don't see anything wrong in your screenshot.

Looks like you're taking pictures of stars!
Stupid question, have you tried cleaning the camera? ...... Of course you did.
In that case it could be dust on the inside, but how often are you taking pictures of things in the dark with no flash? Does it effect the picture in normal light or in low light with the flash?
Is it just me that can't differentiate the stars from the white spots.
OP, upload an edited version to illustrate what you're referring to.

Haha, that's the problem. I don't think the op was taking a photo of the stars. It just looks as though he is.
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.
