Hi,
Settings > About phone > All specs > Tap on Kernel version until CIT launches.
Under 1.Software version - TP Version.
Also, not all phones with tianma panel will have the screen retention issue (aka burn in). Either the panel will be tianma or huaxing.
My device is RN8 (non-T)

I have shenchao , my wife has tianma.

Not sure about shenchao. I have a tianma and have no retention issue. Your mileage may vary, if it ever gives you problems you can send it in to service center or get a replacement.
So basically nothing to worry about for now.

Would you RMA this?

I've noticed that my OP3's display isn't uniform when displaying gray backgrounds (Chrome, no tabs and Spotify) and on the quick settings menu:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/picture.php?albumid=13423&pictureid=53600
Is this something worth returning?
If it is present with night mode off and at all brightness. i would RMA it. In fact I already have applied for replacement for similiar issue. Can you tell me the date of manufacture ? Just curious to understand if it was a bad batch or something like that.

Night mode does indeed make it worse. Regardless of brightness, it's always there. Just less noticeable with full brightness. I believe the date was June 21st. How about you?
RMA.
I had a similar issue, sent it back via RMA, got a new device after 8 days. All good now

So perfect uniformity on all brightness levels on gray screens (especially all tabs closed on Chrome)?
Also, did you purchase directly from OP? If so, what option did you choose to get a new device?
Yes, perfect uniformity.
I purchased directly from OP. Clicked "Service Request" in my Oneplus account, chose "Replacement".

I did not buy from OnePLus. But in OnePLus forum I know others who got it replaced got a brand new one indeed.
Of course brand new...

Thank you for the information. I think I will opt for a replacement and hope that my current device was just part of a bad batch - others, including yourself seem quite happy with their phone's display.
I have uniformity issues and they are extremely noticeable on grey colors. I read a few posts saying they had issues and the replacement was perfect so I issued an RMA myself. I made a reddit post to get some feedback on the quality of the display on my device.

That requires very little feedback other than that it looks terrible. I hope we receive one each of these illusive phones with no issues.

Oneplus 5t lava red

Hey guys, i know the lava red edition is only available in china soon.
Do you think there is any chance we can get this edition in europe?
I thought, maybe ordering it through vpn??
Also im interested when this edition will be released.
Any help would be appreciated
I'm sure you'd be able to see the red OnePlus with a vpn but I don't think you'll be able to ship it out to where you actually are. I could be wrong though
Living in China, I ordered mine this sunday.
Do you think it's exactly the same build than the normal 5t?
I mean, can I install the O2 OS of the normal 5t version in it?

Since it's a limited edition, I think yes.
When ? I don't know
And maybe they willl realeased in Global if people complain a lots
How I can see the build number? To check if I can use the same Rom as the normal 5t?

How you can see your build number: go to settings - scroll down to about phone - the build number should be written there. But i think it doesnt matter. You can in install every custom rom also on the red model because you have the same hardware
Oneplus 5t lava red received !
The package is exactly the same as the normale 5t. Even the quick guide is the global one with many different languages.
I just downloaded the global Rom and it works
This phone is very gorgeous btw

Do you know if I can buy this version also in stores in china or only online? I go next week to Guangzhou and Shenzen and would love to buy it.
Mike
I am not sure, but maybe you can still buy it in the offcial site;
If not, maybe in jd.com but it will be a little be more expensive

Another question. If im able to order the red model, do you think warranty is the same although i live in germany where you only get the black models? Do you see any difference on your warranty paper inside your oneplus package?

Will you use a VPN for your shipment address too? I don't think that will work. Still in Europe you will have 2 years warranty if it has CE (i doubt china versions has it)
Two years ago, I did buy a Mate 8 in China. But Huawei Switzerland told me, they can not offer waranty for this device, because I did buy it in China and not in Switzerland. Therefore it would be interessting to know how Oneplus is handling waranty with devices which are bought outside of your home country.

I had to contact oneplus live support. They told me what i expected.. No warranty on red 5t in other countries than china.
I got a red DBrand skin for my 5T and it looks sweet!

When i order oneplus devices from amazon or somewhere else, do i have 2 years warranty although i didnt order it from the official oneplus site?
i just got my 5T lava red yesterday, i bought it from reseller in my country. now it's already rooted and customized. every custom rom is working fine, i think the only difference is just the color and factory rom u got. i personally think this color is totally gorgeous. maybe the best smartphone color i've ever seen!!! well, i just hope the next oneplus lava red would have grey/titanium accent button
I got my lava red op5t today and I'm in the u.s using it on TMobile and everything is working smooth, I don't even wanna use my note 8 no more lol

LCD touch sensitive problem :(

I just bought redmi note 8 (ginkgo) with 4/64gb variant but i got problems when playing some games, it lags on bottom screen and the touch sensitive is so bad, like you need to touch for a while then it touched. I can't playing any games if the bottom and the upper screen sensitive like that so i just regret it when buy this phone ((
Comments if u found same issue like me and if u know how to fix touch sensitive tell us.. (
I don't have such issues, just return it.

Same here note8 64 global
Can confirm I have no such issues here. Most likely a manufacturing defect, return your device to get it changed out while it is still under warranty.
And as a rule of thumb: only buy Xiaomis from official retailer / official online store.
Yeah i have same issues, and i can confirm lot of people in Indonesian group have same problem, i think this is not defect

Hopefully, Mi have learned something from Poco F1. But it seems to me that, the same situation gonna repeat in RN8 case.
Could you send link to this group?

New Batch without the Greent Tint Issue?

As I am on my second replacement device (all three manufacturing date 29.10.19) and since I heard from someone that OP pushes a new batch at the end of the year without (hopefully) the green tint, I am wondering of someone purchased a OP7T recently and can confirm, that there is in fact no (or less) green tint?

I dont notice any green tint.. EDIT - I have 10-17-2019 listed on the box.
It's pretty much confirmed that it's a lottery if you get the green tint effect. I wouldn't trust any batch since mine is made 04.10.2019 and I have tried everything to reproduce the green tint I've seen others experience to no avail. Many other phones with OLED displays have this problem at random. Anyway I hope I'm wrong and that you get a good sample, just my two cents.
