Greetings,
Recently, I'd say about a week or so now, I've noticed an odd glitch in Google Maps that was never present before. It is not consolidated to any phone/rom/kernel/setting as I have tested it on 3 totally different phones now all running variant roms and setups, one not even rooted. So I can easily cross that out as a possibility.
The problem here is that when I used to zoom in close enough that you could see the borders for land plots, there would be a dark black line for the borders. Now it's an extremely faint white thats near impossible to see over the pinkish-white background.
Anyone else have this problem besides me and my family?
Bumping. I'd appreciate ANYONE on Android opening up Maps and zooming in to test this for me please. It takes <60 seconds and will be great to know if others are experiencing this.
I just updated to the recent version of Maps and now this seems to be happening to me, if I understand your description correctly. There are thousands of white boxes superimposed over everything, and they don't correctly line up with property borders if that's what they are supposed to be doing. It ruins the view.
I uninstalled the update and things went back to normal. This happened on my phone and my Galaxy tablet. Not sure what's going on. Never happened before.

Anyone know how to get to a screen calibration tool on the Captivate / Galaxy S? I've done a search and found a number of links for how to do it on HTC phones, but nothing for the Galaxy S.
My screen isn't far off, but on a number of different sites in the browser it will register a link below what I touched.
Thanks.

Sometimes the problem is how the browser is rendering the page/links. Now and then I have the same problem, zoom-in then zoom-out fix it.
I have this problem on google reader. It's like the ads that get tucked in at the bottom through the click-able area off.
So I usually try to open links from the bottom up. or just give it a little time to catch up... it usually does
My screen occasionally goes crazy on my captivate. I will be swyping in text and it will suddenly jump all over the place...one time it started in K9 mail, another in Dolphin mini browser. Once it starts the entire screen is effected and it makes navigation difficult and usually ends in a reboot. I am not sure if these apps have anything to do with it but I removed them and then reinstalled and that helped. Not sure if anyone has experienced something similar and if there is something in particular that might be causing it. It is extremely frustrating.
this issue has happened to me some times, I've noticed that all the times it happens is because the screen has humidity, water, sweat,etc. At least to me that is the reason.
I'm now getting clouds showing up on my screen when I haven't been using the tablet for a while... only when it's cloudy outside. I noticed this start happening right after I updated via the OTA update a few days ago. Several apps also udated right after that update so it could be one of those that is doing it but I can't find a setting in Android or any of the apps that's causing this. I find it irritating cause the clouds will float across the screen and cover up things I'm trying to look at. They will go away after I touch the screen, but still...
Anyone know what might be causing this?
Thanks,
I'm not sure exactly the technical terms to use to explain this. Hopefully there's a term for this so I can search google more effectively.
If I move the screen around it moves with the screen, so it's not a problem with the physical screen.
I've only noticed this in some apps like bbc news and waze so far, but I don't use many apps.
I have not noticed it in chrome.
I'm using CM11 KitKang. I don't remember or didn't notice if this happened running stock.

I've started using official CM11 Hammerhead and text is fine now.
Anyone else having the problem that only a black screen appears when Rez Infinite is started? The middle indicator for the Daydream is visible, also the "X" on the upper left and the settings gear on the upper right, but nothing else is happening. It doesn't matter how I installed it (Playstore or within Daydream), how I start it. I have tried rebooting, deleting app data from all involved apps, nothing helps. What I haven't tried so far is a factory reset, and downgrading to Android 8.0. In the Playstore there are two reviews which describe the exact same behaviour on the Pixel 2 with Android 8.1.0, so it might be a problem with this constellation. Several other VR apps work fine, I haven't found another VR app that does nothing but a black screen so far (tried a handful).
This is really a bummer, I basically only bought the Daydream for Rez Infinite...
Hi kendong2! Yes, I have the same problem wit Rez. Also happens to me with Darknet and a few other daydream apps. I'm on a Pixel XL though. Also latest official 8.1. And I'm also really looking forward to a fix for this. Anybody else experiencing similar issues? Or maybe someone already has a solution or we can figure it out?
Hello again. I just came back to report that the game is working now. I did a fresh install of Android P DP2 when it came out and decided to give it another shot last night and it worked.
Hey all! I recently updated from Android 10 to Android 11 OOS 11.0.2.2 and I have a strange issue I didn't have before. On grey/blue backgrounds, the screen dims and changes color a little bit after not touching it for 4-5 seconds. I already submitted a bug report but I just wanted to see if others are having this issue. I do have a T Mobile device that's been converted to global, but again this issue wasn't present before. I can't report as to whether the issue happened on OOS updates previous because I just updated and got 11.0.2.2. I've also linked a short video here showing the issue. If you guys have any input at all, it's appreciated!
I may be having a similar issue. I am trying to view your video to see if it is the same problem. I have noticed that my color turns warm, as if the blue light filter was activated. It normally happens when I am trying to type in a field. In most situations, it happens when there is a lot of white being displayed.
I did not pay attention to the browser that I was using. It may be a Chrome issue, but that is only if we are experiencing the same thing.
Ok, so we are talking about two different things. But, your dim is very subtle, at lease as far as the camera is concerned. Does mine do the same thing? No idea. I probably never noticed.
However, are you using Adaptive Brightness or manual brightness? In my experience, OOS 11 came with a LOT of bugs. I've been getting screen orientation problems as of late, and it would lock my screen sideways depending on what I am doing. I do not use auto rotate, and I am certain that I didn't press the rotation button in the bottom right corner. Even if it showed up, it shouldn't have, as I was using my phone in portrait mode every time that bug showed up.
TL;DR: OOS 11 - YMMV.

So I have the same thing with the screen going super warm on white backgrounds too, primarily on web browsers. With the other issue it only happens with the brightness between 30-70% or so and the screen gets darker and the gamut seems to get a tad cooler but I've chalked these up to separate issues. No phone is without faults but it seems like Oneplus releases software without testing it at all.
Edit: I noticed the yellowing on Chrome, and nowhere else on the phone. Samsung internet does have the same issue
Yes, I have a slew of issues with Android 11. My problem is the fact that I like it a lot more than A10 w/OOS, sooo....I have no option but to tolerate them for the moment.
