It was a beautiful and sunny day today, finally put on my sunglasses while using navigation on the phone and whole screen was blue as ****, could barely make anything out. None of the previous galaxy phones looked this bad, you only had to turn up the brightness. Is it the original screen protector causing this?
It's because your glasses are polarised. Depends which way the set up the glass on the handset. Use the phone in landscape mode, any different?
Phone is always in portrait mode, and its the same sunglasses that i've had for like 5 years.
So in landscape mode it looks fine, but the s10 looked fine in portrait mode so what gives?

What did the S10 look like in landscape? I'd bet you had the same issue. There's a polarising filter on your display to help cut down things like glare. Depending on which way that filter is installed depends if you have issues looking at the screen with polarised glasses in landscape or portrait
Hi,
It is the original screen protector. Samsung improved this on devices manufactured from somwhere around April (they started to use a different foil). I have a march manufactured model and have the same "issue" (with polarised glasses)

I'll bet my bottom dollar if you checked the S10 in landscape you'll see it's the same. There's nothing you can do except get non polarised sunnies or take them off when looking at the screen

There you go, there's you answer, it was the same situation on the Note 10 where they applied the original protector. In Poland you can go to the Samsung Brand Store and get the original protector changed into one that doesn't affect polarised glasses (also the original one). I would guess it's the same in other parts of the world. I personally find the original protector very good and wouldn't change it for a 3rd party one.

Just found that my screen has burn in on it...
should I replace it?
Thanks
When I go into the diagnosis app and do LCD test and leave it on the black color I see the same exact thing as your pictures. Do you have a screen protector? I do and iam half tempted to take it off and see if that might be causing the distortion. Can other people try what I did and report back their results?

Check Diagnostics and no distortion with the black, or any other color test screen. Using a Moshi screen protector.
Do you have the purple haze issue? My black L900 does not appear to have that bug.

Even with all my lights off, I cannot see ANYTHING on the screen when it's black in Diagnostics, Scrolling from White to Black, it's blank. It truly appears to be turned off. I'm actually thinking it may be off it's so dark.
PS: Just tried it again with my Brightness turned all the way up. Same. Looks like it's turned off.

Same and none of my other colors replicate what OP gets. I get a slight "rainbowing" effect on all my colors but I am told that could be my screen protector or that I am still not used to the amoled screen...
Well I might have to drop by an att store to compare because mine looks just like the first picture. Thanks guys!

AMOLED screens are very easy to get burn in. If you turn the brightness all the way up, leave the screen on for longer time and display static pictures or text for long period of time, you will get burning quickly. It gets burnt in 10 times faster than a Plasma TV.
OP seems play too much games on it.

I have a preorder phone and use it quite a lot daily and that test did not indicate a problem, neither has the LCD test. Are those of you with these problems running some app constantly? Even some kind of UI replacement?
Or, were they used phones? Maybe they were demo phones that were running the Demo Software in the stores?

Hrm that sounds odd. I assume you didnt transfer a screen protector or anything to it from the old one?
One of my old PET screen protectors had a "Rainbow" affect if you looked at it with the screen off and at an angle. This was on an AMOLED display.

I doubt this. I have a Lumia 900 AND a plasma and my plasma which is a fairly recent super thin model has image retention like an SOB. It's one of those "smart" TVs with all the apps built in. It has google maps, Netflix, youtube, etc. It looks beautiful but you have to be careful If you use an app with static controls for too long you can end up with image retention. On dark scenes in movies if I have been fiddling with the volume recently I can sometimes see a faint ring where the volume indicator pops up. That level or image retention would be ruinous on a smartphone.

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.

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!

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.

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.

The blacks are normal to be a little bluish. All lcd are like that and even mine to a small degree.

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.

Hi,
Because I just got a pair of polarized sunglasses, I have discovered that the display on my RN5 Pro seems to be polarized. While this sounds good, the practical effect is that if I hold my phone vertically while wearing my sunglasses, I can't see the screen at all. I can only see it if I hold the phone horizontally.
Is this something that is physically part of the display? Is there any option to change/rotate or turn off the polarization? Any ideas?
Thanks!

Ho, I was about to ask a similar question, that a coincidence
The fact is, the redmi note 5 ha a polarized filter (like all LCD panels) oriented at 90° from the one of other smartphone I had (nexus 5X, Redmi note 4, etc.). As per consequence I can't see anything in portait mode but it's all clear in landscape, witch is terrible for car use.
If a screen protector can mitigate this issue, it worth the try

Hi All,
I put a cheap glass screen protector (a dollar or two from ebay) on the phone, and the problem disappeared. It would be interesting to learn the physics behind it, but practically, all you have to know is put any kind of glass screen protector on and the issue goes away. And you keep the phone looking good. So bonus.
Thanks for the discussion, everyone.

I prefer Android. I have never used Iphone. I know this forum is from Android but ... why don't you advise using IPhone?
It's a really annoying problem that I had many times with my Z3Cs. The device still has a lot of support but I'd never go back to it.
I currently have two X Compacts and two XZ1 Compacts and fortunately none of them have this issue (yet). I haven't seen any other reports of it on here before.

I replaced the screen on my XZ1c because I was having the same issue with the screen lifting up and the screen also had weird splotches of color either from it being bent out all kinds of stuff getting in there. Here are my experiences.
The way I fixed it was to buy some b7000 glue from Amazon and just put glue where the screen is lifting up.
https://www.amazon.com/Catpalm-Adhe...keywords=b7000+adhesive&qid=1590475714&sr=8-3
If that doesn't work I would recommend removing the whole screen, purchasing the screen adhesive strip from somewhere like witrigs
Link to adhesive:
https://www.witrigs.com/witrigs-back-cover-sticker-for-sony-xperia-xz1-compact
Then glue the screen back on with the adhesive strip and put a layer of b7000 all around the back of the screen. Just make sure not to put too much. This worked for me and I tested it and it's still waterproof.
But obviously I wouldn't recommend testings that.
Also if any of the glue is sticking out at the end it can be cut off our pulled off after it has dried.

I would recommend checking out the Galaxy S10e, it is a pretty great device which is not much larger than our beloved XZ1c, and some of the XZ1c developers are moving over to it too.
Here are the specifications for the Galaxy S10e:
https://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s10e-9537.php
I also attached a picture showing the size of the phones next to each other and some other phones.
One last thing,
I would recommend looking at this thread to see if they have other phone ideas:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xz1-compact/help/alternative-to-xz1c-t3890142/page1
The Galaxy S10e 5.8“ is substantially larger than the XZ1C 4.6“ screen. I'd go with a Pixel 1 at 5.0" before going to a 5.8" screen.

That's true.
Though the overall size of the S10e is the same as the Pixel 1. The S10e has a larger screen since it has smaller bezels all around.
So if phone size is important it and not specifically the screen size I think it has better hardware, although worse developer support for now, I'm guessing. And battery life also isn't as good.

Old thread, but still very relevant.
I am interested to know what would be the best solution in this case for the XZ1 Compact. I can see that even the adhesive Sony is selling to ASWO for this device is not gluing the screen onto the body properly.

How is that Witrigs adhesive? Is it water resistent in and of itself or just as good as the Sony one?
Did anyone try heating it up before and after placing the screen onto the body?
EDIT: The adhesive is Hot-Melt. Heat it up to at least 60 C and it will glue the screen like factory.
Hey, good people,
Did your Pixel 6 Pro have a sticker on the camera when taken out of the box? I think I may have received a returned unit, mine didn't have one.
Mine had neither a screen protector on the screen or camera.

Parts shortages, part spec change, sloppy production line/QC practices... who knows?
Not a critical item.
If it you could correlate that to a manufactured date/plant that might be interesting.
Inspect closely for any physical damage.
Charge to 100% Boot.
Use ScreenTest to check the display. Test cam, internet/phone, bt, wifi, and basic features.

Not sure what you call a screen protector. Pixels never had screen "protectors", the most recent Pixel 6 just had a piece of paper loosely layed on the screen that you were able to easily pull off.

Hey, good people,
Did your Pixel 6 Pro have a sticker on the camera when taken out of the box? I think I may have received a returned unit, mine didn't have one.

I had no sticker on the camera. It's possible that it was returned, but it's also just possible that the human that assemblied the phone forgot to remove the sticker. If you remember the leaked assembly videos, almost the entire assembly is done by humans by hand, so mistakes wouldn't surprise me.
they dont come with any. Just the paper bit on the screen.

There's no screen protection when you open the box. There's just a paper covering the screen. I would suggest to watch one of the unboxing videos and verify if that's what you got.
Mine had clear plastic stickers over all glass surfaces. Probably what people are referring to as "protectors". They do indeed protect from dings and scratches during shipping.
