Question Dead Pixels? I assume. So bummed. - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3

Hard to see clearly from the Pic but these bright multicolored elements appeared 3 days ago and are visible regardless of the View. They're under the LCD screen it seems.
Incredibly dissapointing.

Use ScreenTest or the phone's embedded display test to verify if/what pixels are damaged

I used a dead pixel app. Recommended by a Samsung rep. Did nothing

How to access the imbedded display test sir?

Not sure for that device. It uses the phone keypad to interface.

Samsung members apps...run the diagnostics

Anyone seen those before?

Where do you find the diagnostics?
Nevermind.

I had something very similar, just in the crease of the fold about 3/4" from the bottom. The screen had to be replaced under warranty.

as this is a surely hardware problem, are there any other solutions than:
a. buy a new LCD screen (hard to find)
b. buy a new phone
thanks for the help guys
bump..........
Sorry
Since it is a hardware problem, I can't think of any other solution besides purchasing another LCD/phone. I'm sorry.
That said, I have put my defy underwater many times. The touch screen stop working when wet, but I had no issues with it once it dried. Maybe the problem was from the impact?

Screen problem

Hello!
I recently bought a nexus galaxy and I'm very happy of it. However I discovered that the screen has a problem. When I use the phone at night there is a disturbing darker line if the screen uses dark colors. I can not make you a picture to figure out beacuse my camera can not see the difference of colors. I attach an image to make understand you. I get such an effect on a totally black screen. Obviously it is not so pronounced in reality.
Another small problem is a slight problem with some brightly colored screens that remain imprinted on the screen a few tenths of a second and then disappear when i change screens.
Today I called samsung support but has not been helpful. Should I try again?

Warmer screen than usual phones?

Ok I just bought a brand new mi mix 2, can you guys confirm whether the screen is little on the warmer side and whites ar slightly uneven (specially the bottom bit warmer than the upper bit). Is this a flaw? yes I have seen another thread in XDA but I want to hear opinions from all of you who have been using this phone for years or new buyers.
Mine is ok. no problem
Nope, I rarely get this thing to heat up but when it does, it's evenly distributed
My screen color is slightly warmer (yellow-ish), than prevous phone moto z play.
I don't notice uneven colors.
Yes and I don't like it. Is there a way to change it ?
Here is a comparison with a Redmi Note 5 with the same settings. Even in cold mode, it's too warm :

Earpiece

Hello,
I don't know if it was always like that or if I already got dirt into my earpiece.
To me it looks like the right two thirds of the grid of the earpiece are blocked (filled with something, maybe dirt). I will try to upload am image tomorrow.
Is it the same for you? I tried to get out or with a vacuum cleaner but it didn't change.
You can see what I mean on this picture

lol, never paid Attention to it. But you are right, I have EXACTLY the same right two thirds of the grid "blocked" .. Seems to be standard? Haven't found any issues with it so far..
That's as intended, the right two thirds are just cosmetic to make it look symmetrical, the speaker hole is only in the left third.
Hi there, I have too "dirt into my earpiece". Is it so on purpose or not?
Me too
I contacted my seller and he say me "it's normal". It´s no dirt but some like protective foil against dirt / dust.

Question Screen issue

Hi, I have just bought brand new OP 11, does anyone had this kind of issue with screen? There is black dot near front camera, looks like just pixels are dead... Does anyone have something like this?

These are not dead pixels, it looks a lot like the place where the camera is actually located doesn't quite match the UI (because where the camera is located normally nothing is displayed and that doesn't seem to quite match the camera on your phone to fit )
