Question Display issues after MIUI 12.5.2 update - Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G

Link to reddit video
After the 12.5 (Indian) update, I'm starting to notice that the colours of the display has gone weird. It doesn't look like an amoled anymore. Is anybody else experiencing this?

Also the display is perfectly fine in lock screen. The colours go weird after I unlock the phone.

While trying the latest miui build I noticed that blacks don't really turn the pixels off like an amoled should. You can notice this for example in the camera app at the top and bottom bars that should be black but in reality are slightly red, only noticable in a dim room or if you crank the brightness. I think this is their way of "fixing" gradient issues on this phone and it indeed is less present but at what cost?

Ah so it is indeed because of their gradient issue. I hope they completely fix this one day.

Mine goes really green (greys) at low brightness.
@mattabyte can you please check this too? Check it in a very dark room/night at low brightness (not the lowest). And please report here.

one plus providing fix for this on next ota plus ram fix tooo so wait
Yes, I get this. I also get purple trails.
This can't be fixed, I don't think, unless they raise the lowest brightness. From my searching it looks like an issue with quite a few older AMOLED phones.
Well, greys would become pink on my Nexus 6P as well. But for it it turned green which looked really weird. I sent in for a replacement.
I have a slight purple tint to some grays on low brightness, yes.
I also have blue/purple trails when dragging black items over a dark background on the screen, visible on all brightnesses but much more so on low.
Yellowish screen
I also have a little issue with my screen. My screen gets yellowish on the left when the background is grey, this don't happens when another color is shown...
Is this a software issue and can it be fixed or do I need to return the phone?

I made a video showing this issue.... That clearly appears on grey backgrounds.
Do you guys think that the upcoming update could also fix this issue ?
I also have yellowish tint on the right side of my screen

Yes, display uniformity problems are unfortunately very common on the OP3, as also a thread in Oneplus' own forum shows (with a poll). You have to return the device for a replacement as often as you need to finally have a device with even screen.

5t display quality

i am changing my huaweip10lite just becouse i'm sick of the horrible blur when i scroll up and down text espescially on dark backgrounds, maybe it's just a issue with mine but i found someone that buy my phone and so i can change it.
Really guys, can you tell me if there are long lines of blur/ghosting/smearing maybe when you scroll in nova launcher's options, that has a dark background with white text? Becouse mine screen is horrible.
I read some threads where people say that is just amoled display issue but i tried other amoleds and it is totally not as mine issue, and the huaweip10 lite doesen't have an amoled display so it make no sense for me.
I just want to check if oneplus5t doesen't have this issue becouse i see it a lot when it happens.
I think this issue is called smearing, or ghosting, or blur while scrolling. I don't know what is.

Tested on my AppGeek - there's no blurred scrolling on the 5T.
And the scroll is far smoother than whatever is on that video!
thanks!
i'm going to buy the op5t or the pixel 2
I had same issues on mine when i open a lot of popup settings or just scroll down the screen blur goes crazy
Sent from my OnePlus5T using XDA Labs
Oneplus 5t also has this blur when scrolling... Not so much, but it has. Is something normal on an Amoled display...

Please reply. Display problem.

Black transparent frames around the display. Do you have them too? It depends on the colors on the screen. If you have a bright wallpaper, you will not see them. I don't know if this is a display defect or firmware bug.

Looks like display burn-in

How is that like a burn-in? I see nothing like a burn in here. It looks like lcd backlight bleeding around edges. Hardware issue.
Sad story guys. Someone in miui forum says that he fix this problem with kernel adiutor, but how? For me, this is a small problem, because the appearance of a black bar around the display depends on the background. If the colors are bright, the strip is not very visible. But I still would like to know how to fix it.
That's the screen retention problem, use some custom kernel with KCAL support, set RGB values to 210/215 and you're ready to go.

Thats not screen retention. Do you see any artifacts or shadows of previous display? No, he has a black bar around screen edges, so unless he was looking at a picture of black bar around the edges at full brightness for a day, its not a burn-in and its not image retention. Its backlight bleeding, bad quality display.

I do have the same problem with you, where the display has darker frame around it. but it's disappeared one day. then I begin to play a game and sometimes I fell asleep while playing it, and yes I got some kind of retention of game's UI around the screen. the UI can clearly be seen when I am opening incognito window in chrome.
but recently I flashed a custom ROM, and guess what? the retention is disappeared.
so is this really hardware issue? can't be software issue right?
why don't you try flashing custom ROM

Night mode isn't as dark

Lying in bed last night I turned on Night Mode. I noticed when I pulled down the notification shade, the top portion was still dimly back lit, so I could see the camera cutout and the edges of the screen, no matter how much I dim the backlight.
Well tonight I fired up my Note 9, put it on Night Mode and pulled down the notification shade, and no matter how bright or dim I have the screen, the top part is BLACK. no light. You can't see where the screen ends and the frame begins.
This isn't a huge deal except for battery savings. When an AMOLED screen is true black, those prices shut off. But since the night mode on the N10+ isn't true black those pixels are still lit up and using power.
When viewing video in Netflix or YouTube the black bars are truly black, so I know the screen is capable showing true blacks, I'm just not sure why Sammy changed Night mode so it's no longer truly black.
I have just experienced the same thing. I have a note 9 as well to compare. I'm actually deeply disappointed. I also noticed screen mode only has 2 options... vivid and natural. Where as note 9 has 4 screen modes. I'm trying to figure things out to see if I can get it to be true black.
It's probably normal since it's a night mode and not a black mode ; in which you wouldn't it to make your screen showing heavy contrasted differences that actually made more eye fatigue than the light one.
Maybe I'll finally like this mode on this new phone.

No I understand it's a "Night mode" but I'm comparing it to the Note 9 and Note 8 Night mode where it became a true black. And I ran it in Night mode almost 24/7 for some battery savings as well. Well that doesn't work if Night Mode is just a dark grey rather than a true black.
And I'm not sure how true black and contrast made for more eye fatigue? Have you never watched a 4K movie? The whole point of high def is high contrast with true deep blacks, bright whites, and bright colors.
I also noticed on the quick access home screen in Samsung Browser on dark mode, it's not longer a true black. Now if you turn on High Contrast mode in the browser settings, then the background is a true black, so that panel is capable of turning off the pixels and going true black. This means it was an obvious design choice.

Dark VS black doesn't make much difference battery wise on OLED screens (let me just find the test back and I'll update my post)
Because the notification panel and anywhere else that it matters contains mostly texts and it produce visual retina persistence (not sure if I translated well), plus it's more annoying to read and and eyes accommodate less than in light mode where everything is light too.
There's nothing to do with movies since it's dynamic and constantly changing from a lot of different colours while texts are more static (but going from dark to light scene still hurts)
I agree that it's absolutely a design choice, but in my opinion for the better.

I gotcha. Makes sense. I'd like to see some tests on black vs dark. I had always heard and though the battery savings was due to the pixels shutting off. It's why the AOD is black and not just dark.
Buts also weird. I'm replying to this direct from the Gmail notification of your reply. So it opened up the webpage in the webview. Well the top bar above the page that says reply to topic and has had the Gmail overflow button is true black. But the status bar right above it is dark grey.
I guess what bugs me most is it makes the camera cutout stick out, even in the dark. Because I look up an I see a true black for on a dark charcoal background. And I can see the screen edges. I preferred on the Note 9 where it all just blended away with the true black.
But yet, when I watch a movie, the status bar DOES turn off completely and you can't see the camera cutout. Just can't figure out the inconsistency.

It may be because apps got their own night mode colour settings embedded, while all One UI apps got theirs which are different.
Like, if for Google night mode is all black, their apps will just check about system UI night mode trigger and of its on, apply their own settings.
I can only find that reason for it to be such inconsistent.

I totally understand and agree ! Especially when you like what Samsung did with their UI
In an other hand, there's some third party theme that may be of use to have a black theme : https://forum.xda-developers.com/s10-plus/themes/theme-anxious-t3921645
I don't know if it's working for the Note 10 yet but I think it's just a matter of time before it do

I'm using #hex_ and it works very well on Note10+.

I just use a theme that's mostly black everywhere. No need for night mode..
One UI notification shade isn't actually black for any of the devices on the One UI. I had an S8+ before this and it looked black but if you take a screenshot and measure the color value, you'll see that it's not black. You can do the same thing on your Note 9. Take a screenshot and extract the color value. Or take a screenshot and then transfer that screenshot to the Note 10 and view it on the Note 10. I guarantee that the Note 9 screenshot of the notification shade will look like the Note 10 notification shade. Black will cause AMOLED smearing which isn't good look.

So I tried this. Set my Note 9 to Night Mode and took a screen shot. Sent it to my N10+. Guess what? The notification shade in my Note 9 screen shot is pure black when viewed on my N10+ screen.
So I did the opposite. Took a screen shot of N10+ notification shade and sent it to my Note 9, and it appears dark grey.
So I'm not saying you're WRONG, but this is proof that the notification shade on Night Mode on the Note 9 (and the Note 8) was SIGNIFICANTLY darker than the N10+. If they aren't true black, then they are so close at to be indistinguishable from it, whereas the N10+ is definitely lighter than black.
I also just used an app to do a color value sample on my screenshots. Note 9 notification shade is #00000. I believe that is true black?
See my attached screenshots. War Machine is Note 9 (The one with the true black notification shade) and the Darth Vader is the Note 10+ (the one with the dark grey notification shade)
To see what I'm talking about, you may need to turn brightness up on your phone or go in a dark room.
Screenshots of color picker showing Note 9 notification shade is #00000 (true black) and Note 10+ is #080808 (not true black).

I tried this. The notification shade was still dark grey, not black.
Samsung doesn't use black on the N10, it's that simple. They use a form of grey that's fairly close to pure black, however. The avg person probably uses white themes, so I doubt many will take notice.

It's all good. I fixed it with GoodLock. I have my stock theme and a true black notification shade again.
Thanks!!

Write back when you find a solution to make samsung browser black.cheers.
As Nastrahl pointed out it the pixels don't need to be completely off to save a lot of power. I was going for total black but since I adjust brightness manually a little bit of tint to the black looks nicer and makes it easier to gauge the brightness.
You can use the Good lock app Quickstar to make the pull down notification panel any color or darkness level you want. Mine is almost black with a hint of forest green.
My wallpaper is even darker with the same green tint.
When the brightness is too high the wallpaper's green tint is noticeable otherwise it looks black.

color change from lock screen to unlocked phone

Hello, I'm facing a sort of problem. When I look at the locked screen it has a calibration, but when I drop down the quick toggle or I unlock the screen it turns a little bit more yellowish. I don't think it's hardware related but could someone give me an explanation?
I think it's because of the FP sensor. To improve the recognition maybe.
Or it is a bug like the dark theme not being dark in some apps, Chrome, YouTube, Shelf. Top of the screen is less dark, like a little bit green. Not a hardware issue though, settings and built in apps ark dark (Dialler, Messages). I think it is something with the theme settings.
It's all normal. The lockscreen has this colder/blueish tone, like a filter, which goes away after unlocking. Nothing to worry about, not a bug or a defect. Just the way it's designed to work.

I don't think so.
With every app that request fingerprint authentication the color of the screen changes.
It must be something related to improve fingerprint accuracy
I am not talking about the screen with FP scanner active. Just check the dark themed Chrome, Shelf, YT. Especially on the dimmed screen. Upper part is a little greenish. Cannot make a screenshot as it looks ok on it. It has to be sth with theme, as on some apps (dialler, messages, settings) the whole screen is dark (black).

Yep, and it looks like software issue to me.

As you can see, app is a little green, but quick settings are black when dragged down. Screen is fine, I believe.

Thats because green tint is only visible on certain brightness levels at grey background. No problem on black background
The issue related to the lock screen is present any time the through screen fingerprint camera activates. You will also notice it if you have face unlock active in low light and the screen lights up to assist the front camera in recognizing you. Color spectrum is super important to cameras when they are recognizing things on our skin.

That apps are not black, are grey. "Dark mode" does not mean "black".
In other way, all amoled panels have (or can have) this kind of behaviours at very low bright level and certain colours (especially grey).
Particularly, I do not see that effect in mine or I just cannot see it.
If you think that is a defect or problem, why not open a repair request to OnePlus?
