Hi!
I just recently noticed that there are two bigger yellow spots and a line on the screen of my KS20, I am pretty sure they weren't there a couple of days ago. Ok so well, I tried take a screen shot and they do not show up there so apparently it is hardware related, and they do not show up on white or light colors... any idéas?? besides service again... : /
if the pixels are dead, you can't do anything other than use service.. or replace the screen yourself.. if you know how and can get a replacment one for your KS.
i assume you can find a guide to disassembling the KS20 on the net somewhere..
Yea, but i am not sure i would call them dead, yet as they yellow is only on dark colours (of course, where they are as visible as possible -_-)... Guess i have to send it in for service again, sigh...
hehe. i sympathize. hate those services..

I have a HTC Touch Dual and is going to be about 3 months old.
I randomly decided to open VSPainter today and noticed that in one area of the screen there is a faint bluish hue in one area (a circular area about half the size of a pea). If i tilt the device and look at it at an extreme angle it can be seen clearly. You cant really see it unless the screen is white. It wasnt much of a big deal until I investigated further and drew lines in VSPainter across the region and noticed that the lines would 'bend' around the spot.
I think this problem could have been caused by some pressure on that area of the screen...but I could be wrong.
Since I've only had the Dual for 3 months, do you know if I'm covered by any manufacturer warranty? (Im in the UK and on Orange).
Is there anything else I can do?
Hasn't anyone come across this kind of problem?
Hello guys,
since some weeks i got something like a pressure mark / dark spot on my xda orbit2 screen.
I dont know what happend to the screen but i think it is some kind of a hardware defect.
The touch-function works without problems and the picture displays normal but on the mark it is a little bit more dark.
This size is about 0,7 centimeter x 2cm.
Does anybody know what it is or got the same thing?
Is there a way to fix it.. but I dont think so .
How is it with the warranty? (Damn, i dont want to send it back.. the last time it toke 6 weeks).
Thanks
Chris
I have the same problem. I believe it resulted from someone grabbing my phone, not knowing how to use a touch-screen, and pressing MUCH too hard. Doubt it's a hardware defect; if the screen is pressed too hard, like any other screen not covered by a layer of glass, it'll get that sort of mark.
Hi Guys,
New to this forum. I recently sold my one plus due to the exact reason but this was at the bottom of the display. Many have said that it would disappear over time but after 6 months, the yellow band was still haunting me. Gave up because of how infuriating it was and sold it. Got this beast, loving it but I noticed straight away at the top left of the display there was a yellow spot which spreads slightly to the centre. Im not familiar with the characteristics of certain displays as I am aware of the different kinds of displays these two devices use. Just wondering, would this problem disappear over time ?? I saw this post on this particular "fix" sites, which says that it will over time given the glue dispersion from heat and what not. BUT, im just afraid (skeptic here) it would end up like my one plus. Im trying to avoid going back to the reseller as this phone was purchased from a grey importer. Any input from any of you guys would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

a lot of people have yellow spots . the spots are mostly visible in 0% brightness and grey backround. Install dead pixel detect and fix and choose gray from the menu. if the result is not good contact with lg service center to change the screen.
you mentioned also oneplus. I also had oneplus before. it had 2 issues the first one was the led light bleeding and the yellow banding. the led bleeding is only visible down due to the position of led lights of the phone and cannot be fixed. the yellow band was due to the glue that didn't properly fixed. I personally had this issue but after some months It was fixed by the use of the phone. I also let it 2-3 times under direct sunlight for 20-25 minutes.

Just wondering, would it work if id put the Flex 2 under the sun as well? The discolouration is only noticeable, like you said, on Grey background.. wonder if this would go away over time.. thanks again!! :crying::crying:

you can try it but I don't know if the glue is the issue. on the other hand lg has a very good service maybe it can replace your screen if the problem is so obvious

hey, i managed to exchange for another one. Though there is some improvement, the yellow spots are still apparent albeit less noticeable and only in Grey background. Did your's disappear, or at least improve overtime? How is it? I have tried using a 38W UV lamp for nearly an hour and the yellow spots are still there..

you may need to try a lot of screens to find a good one lol. Mine also has some yellow spots visible in grey but I can live with it... I have still 23 months to think about it (warranty)
I've got to the conclusion that my S6 have some screen glass 'problems'. Whenever i tilt it the colors change a little, from that yellowish white it goes to some blue accent; and also the botton of the screen is more white then the top. This is very noticeable indoor with brightness on auto, at the outside i don't really notice some of these 'problems'... I know that all of these things are specific to the amoled category but sometime it's irritating.
I've send an email to the carrier from i bought the phone and they told that the phone will be send in service; and replacement its not possible(i have bought the phone online).
My question to you, should i send the phone to the service ? I mean, it is two weeks old.. will it be the same after a screen replacement ?
I'm knox tripped also but i think this it's not gonna be a problem since it's a hardware issue.
Thanks for your time.

If you're knox tripped, then good luck. You still have warranty (in EU at least) but got to fight for it.
I got pink dots all over my front camera (getting worse and worse) and Samsung say the reason of the pink dots is cause of root, even tho there is documentation for it being a hardware issue on SG6.
So well, if Samsung can get you to pay for the repair in any way, they will.
I wouldn't bother. A repair will come back the same or worse.
Colour shift is normal but still one hundred million times better than any LCD. The white balance is AMOLED all the way and they ALL do it (on S6 and note 4).
I would learn to live with it.
Hello. A few hours ago my phone (samsung s7) started to display some green dots on black background (only on black, no other colors) and green lines in gallery and camera (on black spots). It might be a bug or something...the phone was kept on my desk, near me, no damages, those green things just random popped up and i do not know what to do...the screen is not damaged and the phone is just 2-3 months old.
Also those green lines are appearing only on the half left side of the phone and also those now appear on facebook, when watching photos there are some black edges above and below the photos, and the green vertical lines appear on them.
,
Some help? What might be the problem? Sorry for bad english, im not a native.
Sounds like possibly dead pixels, is it the same for anything black? i.e. a picture, a movie, a game etc all the same green dots?
Might be worth letting Samsung know if it s a hardware fault

Green dots occur on black background, only in a spot. ( left half side )
Green vertical lines appear when opening snapchat for example, looking on facebook at photos, or in gallery. ( left half side )
Both do occur when i use camera, dots appear in a large number on an black object so it is a problem with the black color. ( left half side )
I will add some photos and maybe a video, if i manage to do with another phone.
I dont have problems with those green things in games...havent tried a movie yet.

That looks like the screen might be shafted
Well more specifically the ribbon cable connecting the LCD to the Mainboard, one for Samsung for replacement me thinks

Damn, i will send the phone to them.
The only one thing that annoys me is that this happened suddenly, if it was done by an accident it would be different but i didn't do anything to the phone...i will get it to them.
No probs, its an arse that its happened through My experience for things like that happening is when either sitting on the phone in error or taking it apart and having a faff (yet to tear down an S7 mind)
if you got it from a network provider check with them for warranty as they may just swap it outright for you

Got it from an orange shop and i have warranty, so there isn't a problem but the time spent is a pain in the ass.
Thanks to all of u who advised me which is the right way.
