Hi, I I tried searching for this issue but couldn't find any thread specific to my problem. In darker lighting and on dark images or video I notice some bright blotches in the left center of my screen. It's a pain watching videos with it, but does not impede use of the device. Forgive me if this is common light bleed, but I thought that was exclusive to the edge of the device. Is there any fix I can do on my own or should I try and rma?
I would personally suggest an RMA, that doesn't look right somehow...
U have heavy lightbleed on the top and bottem left side of your screen.
But those blobs in the middel should not be there.
I would suggest a RMA

I had those on my 16GB that I RMA'ed....now my 32GB that I got as an exchange is starting to do it as well.
Starting to regret giving Asus another chance. Never trusted their products before and with good reason......
Thanks guys I'm going to try and return it to Fry's and get the new samsung galaxy tab instead.
You're the third person I've seen with this issue in the past week which is an alarming trend to say the least.
Did it develop over time? Was it there in the beginning? Check your serial number on the box for the revision code (starts with B, EX: B5O, B4O, B6O), which is it?
Definitely RMA. It's unacceptable when there's tons of light bleed on the edges but when it's in the center that's just ****ed.
Looks like I'm too late to return, I'll have to RMA. The serial number is B4O, and I suddenly noticed it, though it's quite possible that it happened over time, I don't recall it being there when I got it.
I am having the same issue, though not as bad. I will try to post pics when I get time.
I just can't decide if a RMA is worth it.... sigh.
My Serial starts with B4O as well.
Edit: Is this actually light bleed or something else? It looks like the IPS screen was impacted before install.
I just sent one back for having a white blob in the middle of the screen about 4mm in diameter I assumed that was light bleed of some description there was plenty round the edges too..
The really worrying thing is the replacement that has just arrived, if I apply light pressure on back of tablet about two inches above asus logo it looks like something is pushing against the screen you get all those rings and what looks like a rainbow effect. I noticed it when docked and moving the screen back and forth the same effect occurs.. I never saw this on my other one, is this just cos the unit is thin and flexes or is it another badly put together tab?
I love this product, why cant it just work

I only notice mine at near full brightness, and with the room pitch black. They are pretty small too. I think I may just try to live with it, as it seems RMA isn't a 100% fix either. I'm afraid I'll be without it for 10-15 business days, and possibly end up with something worse!
yep mine seems to be much worse

That's ridiculous. I shouldn't be afraid of more problems after sending my unit in as a RMA. I think I am just going to hold off and reevaluate the issues in a few months. I'm just worried that the dust in my screen will continue to get worse and worse.
Can anyone speak for a device with a different serial? Also, should I wait and see if ASUS actually fixes it, or RMA as soon as possible? On a side note I thought for RMA they would send me another one and I'd ship this one back when I got the other one, does ASUS not do this?

What's your S/N prefix on the replacement?
This is how it will play out:
1. You call Asus and set up an RMA with the extremely rude customer service.
2. You pay return shipping (about $14-$20) to ship it back to them.
3. They take two weeks to wait for parts and then a week to repair and send it back to you.
4. They end up replacing the LCD and not doing a replacement for the whole unit. You get a "repair", not a "replacement".
5. If you so much as leave a single ding on the unit the service center will mark it OOW (Out of Warranty) and claim no liability for repairs because you damaged it.
At this point the light bleed is so bad you really have no choice.

So at this point my options are to RMA and most likely not get a fix, keep it and try to ignore the lightbleed, wait for better manufactoring/repair and then RMA, or sell it for $180 on Gazelle or maybe more on Ebay/Amazon and use that to buy the thrive or tab instead. I'm leaning towards the first and maybe the last, but I'd be paying about $750 on the last one (calculating new tablet price by adding old price and subtracting the difference.). Suggestions?
Just noticed this on my transformer. It's barely a month old! Gonna take it down to the service centre tomorrow. Ridiculous.

How'd this work out for ya? I was curious how the Galaxy camp was doing so been reading through the Galaxy 10.1 forums, geez I thought we had problems, lots of similar complaints over there about build quality, keyboard lag, reboots, etc and worse of all evidently alot of them have what they call Newtons Rings effect on the tab where the top glass presses against the LCD and makes water looking blotches some of them over half the screen and it changes with temperature lulz. I have seen that stuff before on anything with an Otterbox Defender case with that built in screen protector, those always do that and it's hideous I couldn't live with my tablet doing that.
I have just sent my tf101 back for the newton rings effect you describe.. Maybe galaxy tab ain't the answer either then

Just got my AT&T One X a couple days ago, and I noticed that the bottom two corners of the display are very slightly raised, and pressing down on them pushes them in, and presses against the display as if the entire display assembly is raised. In dark areas, there is noticeable light leak from the capacitive buttons where the display is raised.
In addition, the circular housing around the camera creaks when pressed in, as if it's ill-fitting. Definitely annoying and concerning.
I took my phone into the at&t store and they told me "oh, all phones are like that to a certain extent, if we exchanged it the new phone would have that too". Should I go back and try harder to exchange?

I think so. Mine has none of those issues and is very solid.
Yes you should go back. You are paying good money for that phone and the service! Also, there is an old saying that I think that AT&T is forgetting or has forgotten. "The customer is always right."
I am shocked a little that she would just pooh pooh it off like it was all cool and that you would believe that they are all that way? Such a shame that these new shiny expensive phones are having these cosmetic flaws. There was an issue of a discolouration on one of the newer Sony phones.. *shakes head* Hate to say it but this phone was ruined for me when I found out it was gonna be only 16gig..
Good luck there, friend
It's hit or miss just like anything else. I hate doing unnecessary exchanges for small petty stuff.

Take it in and demand a new phone. What you are describing are definitely defects with your particular phone, mine is flawless. You paid good money for that thing and are stuck with it for two years, you should not have to settle for anything less than a perfect device.

Wow, that kind of pisses me off for some reason. Don't let retarded ATT personnel tell you what is expected build quality. Most of those floor clerks don't know their ass from their elbow when it comes to technology. Like the other dudes said, take it back and ask for an exchange, make them bring out two or three other units and pick the most solid one of the bunch. You're paying multi-hundred dollars for it and signing a two year contract, don't let those same retards that told me the one x has "a amoled screen" and that I should get it because "it works even with a lumia 900 sim card" lecture you about build quality.

Most of our htc one x have this light leak from the buttons, look for the thread, its normal.
The camera area is plastic.
and can you post a picture/video of the screen issue? just so we can get a idea of how much you are pushing it in lol
Yea that's a defect, you should able to exchange that...

I had similar issues with the creaking and the top right of the screen being "mushy". I had bought mine outright at BestBuy and I took it back and told them it was a defect confirmed online, which for the most part is. When I got the next one not a single creak and screen is solid.
Just take it back and tell them you did your research on the issue and found that it is indeed a defect, because it is.
Common with HTC out seems. My inspire was exactly the same.

Awesome! Went to the AT&T store again, got a manager, they basically said "oh yeah well that's just how displays work, if you touch a TV screen with enough pressure it does that too". I told them I only have to lightly tap on the screen for it to warp, and they said because the phone just came out last week they haven't gotten enough feedback from people to know of any potential issues, and if my problem was impairing my use of the phone then they'd replace it, but because I can still use it they "can't replace it". He said he was going to email his HTC rep and see if my problem is a common issue, and let me know later today.
That is such bull****, they can't replace it because it hasn't been out long enough and it's only a cosmetic problem? I clearly showed them how it was different from the display models, and they still said oh its just too new to tell. Great.

Go to a different store, post on their forum, "tweet" at them, hit them on facebook.
Honestly, it seems like the social media people at AT&T do a lot better.
Worst case scenario? return the damn thing and take your money elsewhere.

AT&T told me if I wanted to exchange it I would have to go down town to one of their offices. Apparently they wouldn't let me exchange it at that store. Which is kinda bull, since it's an official AT&T store.

I noticed that the lower part of the screen was not as flush as the top. I just went around the whole phone applying slight pressure and it appears to be flush now. Even before, the difference was negligible.
I saw your pictures too. To be honest, mine does the same but you have to apply some pressure. Same when pressure is applied to the screen.
The screens are VERY close and often adhered to the glass, so yes, pressing down will cause that.
I can replicate the very same thing you show in your pictures, but I do have to apply pressure. This amount of pressure I would NEVER apply in a day to day use.
Looking at your fingers, I can also tell you're applying similar pressure. (the tip of your nail has been pressed so far that the blood flow has been restricted, thus the faded, white hue under the tip of your nail)
I can only conclude that you're being anal about this issue.
If there is light leakage to the extent you have shown WITHOUT applying pressure, I can see why you'd want to exchange.
I just think you're nitpicking at an issue that doesn't exist.
I'm not saying that all phones are flawless or that this phone is flawless. But my hardware resembles what you have described, but I consider them as non issues because they're not really issues at all.
However, when it comes to software of this phone. There is a LOT of be desired, and I've only had the device a few hours.
HORRRRRRIBLE!!!! keyboard, just atrocious.
Weak wi-fi signal, I'm 20 ft from the router with no walls, WTF.
Random network disconnects
flawed multi-tasking
These are the issues you should be MORE worried about.

That's what I thought at first, too. I felt silly for going in there yesterday. But today, its gotten worse; I'm typing this on my phone right now and I can see the lower screen warping as I type. I agree with you, when I took those pictures last night I had to apply slight pressure in the corners to get that effect. However, now all it takes is a regular tap on the lower right quadrant of the screen to see the screen warp. For example, if I press and hold on my home screen (with a gray background) to pull up the wallpaper menu, the screen looks like it does in the third picture I posted. That's definitely not normal behavior.

Sorry I didn't mean to come off as an ass, but your issue MAY be legit, I'm not saying you're lying or anything . Just lots of people on the forums tend to make a mountain out of a mole.
here is my advice. You have 14 days to return the device. I say use it and see what happens. OFTEN times, because of rush to deliver, these phones go from the line into the box, then into the box and then a box....
Basically, let it air out, any glue used to adhere the screen to glass may still be curing.
I've read multiple cases where after a week, similar issues have disappeared.
14 satisfaction policy (30 in CA).... return it and go from there if you can't get anywhere with an exchange.

Im wondering if other people's 8X's creak when squeezing the phone sideways or on the screen after a few minutes of use? Also I can see light leaking from the bottom where the screen meets the body of the phone. Want to know if I should get an exchange tomorrow at Microsoft Store since after that I'm pretty far from any Microsoft Stores until I'm past the return date.
My volume rocker squeaks a little and also moves back and fourth when I shake the phone. At the bottom of the phone on either side of the charging port there are light leaks, and on the left and right bottom sides too, which is annoying in the dark. Tempted to take mine back to Phones4u and ask for a new one..
Got a new phone and its much better. I didn't notice if light leaks through bottom anymore, but the screen is definitely more flush though not PERFECTLY flush.
Much more solid phone and power button also has a click and is easier to press now. No more creaks now.

I'll go and exchange mine then I think. Can you take a picture of it in the dark to show if you have any light leaks and post it up? I'd be very appreciative.
My power button feels a bit odd too, it doesn't have a click and feels squidgy, was thinking that earlier. Might have a go on the replacement in store and look at it in the dark to check for light leaks.
Edit: I've attached the best picture I could get of my light leaks/screen fitting. This is with brightness at max, taken with my DSLR. Was yours this bad? I'd be interested to see if this is an issue with other 8X's or just ours.
I haven't had any problems like that with mine yet. I started using a case after the first week though. Hopefully a replacement will fix the issue for you. That's a lot of light coming through.

It is, it's awful. I'm kind of regretting getting the 8X over the 920 to be honest, the blacks seem very light on the screen and the colour seem very washed out (maybe it's just coming from an AMOLED screen that is doing it), might see what they can do for me in store today. We'll see.
Took it back today, they didn't want to replace it but they did in the end. Tried out two brand new Yellow ones in store, both had the exact same issue. Tried a black one, and it's perfect, no light leakage at all. Maybe it's an issue with the Yellow one. Poor effort HTC.
Accepted the Black one as a replacement, but I'm trying to sell it and get a 920 like I should have in the beginning. Doh!

Meh. I have the black one and its an issue all right. Yesterday, my screen totally died. Went to HTC service center today, and the light leakage and inperfect screen flush were listed as "possible user damage". If they decide to classify it as user damage, i'll be pissed.

I went with the 920, had screen flickering issues and random rebooting on it, and all 3 of my replacements. Gave up and got a Note II. lol.
Yes, when I had mine it creaked and the camera lens moved around a little, and the screen was a tad squishy on the bottom right...HTC consistently has awesome designs but
There is always something wrong with their build quality that is maddening.

Crack over Speaker holes
Hi guys, just to add to the build quality problems... I've just had a replacement from Phones4U of my yellow 8X. After just under a month of gentle and careful ownership i noticed a crack appeared over (and through) the holes on the back for the speaker. The crack got bigger over about a week before i had chance to go ask about it in store. to be fair to P4U, the person i spoke to was great and they swapped it out in store, even though i'd originally bought it online.
Came back to this thread to mention it and now having read everything else i'm noticing a bit of creaking when i squeeze the sides and both phones had had the squishy screen edge picture thing which i first read about being a problem on the ONE X. Not sure if that's just normal anyway though really. Oh and neither of my power buttons have clicked and i find myself missing my easy to press home button on my old iPhone 3GS!
Same again!

Well after a month (again) my replacement 8X has developed the crack in the same place.
Phones 4U are gonna swap it for a black model this time, i'm wondering if it's the yellow plastic specifically that's bad. They were less cheery and helpful with the exchange this time stating that because it's a cosmetic fault they don't usually replace them and the first time was 'a goodwill gesture'.
I'm starting to wish i'd just gone for the extra price bump for the Lumia 920 instead now. Guess i'm lucky they've replaced them at all though but i still don't think a phone should crack of it's own free will after 4 weeks! http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/advanced/drive.png
They also said it's not a widespread fault that they've been made aware of, i was actually hoping someone else on here would have had the same experience to help me confirm it wasn't just bad luck or whatever. I guess everyone else just has the corners rubbing off instead!
I guess I got lucky, my blue 8X seems pretty solid and all the buttons are clicky.
Hi All... Been a while since I posted here on XDA and hoping for some assistance.
My S6 recently seems to have an issue with the screen (mainly on whites) where there is a dark streak that runs vertically on the left side of the screen from top to bottom and slightly to the right on the bottom (makes an L shape) that seems to ONLY be noticable in NATURAL light.
What I mean is under any lamps or fluorescent lighting it is not noticible or very minimally but as soon as it's in the sun it's as plain as day.
I've taken screen shots of the issue and even in the screenies, it's only noticable in natural sunlight and not in "fake light" so I don't know if posting a screen shot will help but I have none the less.
Has anyone e else had this issue and if so has there been a way to fix it?
I'm wondering if anyone else has this same issue and if so has anyone been able to fix it?
Please let me know...
Thanks,
Hey, I am currently using my galazy s6, I watched your screenshot but actually, even when I am in sunlight I cant see a problem, so the problem is in your screen itself and when you take a screenshot and send it, no one can see it ( like when your screen is cracked.) So your screen might be faulty, I think you need to go to where you purchased it and hope for replacement.
Thanks for the reply. Ya... I've gone back and they have seen the issue but if course since I've had the phone for more than 2 weeks they won't do a replacement on the phone and want me to send it for manufacturers warranty. I even have the extended warranty that I pay 10 bucks a month for but NOW they told me that if I want to use that I would have to pay a 250 dollar deductible for a replacement...
I just don't understand why it's only noticible under sunlight?...
My Z3 has just started showing a spot of discolouration at the top left of the screen, right by the charge port.
A phone repair guy told me that this is caused by overheating, does anyone else have experience with this? The place I purchased the phone from told me over the phone they wouldn't replace this under warranty due to my neglect putting too much pressure on the screen at that point, are they kidding me!!!
See attached photo
I had a similar issue but my phone had that color all over the edges and they did replace it under warranty. But mind you the screen they replace it with is not the original sony display. It looks and works OK but i dont think its the original one. Also I doubt the gorilla glass quality after replacement.
Interesting I was just about to post same issue, I have this green discolouration around all the edges of my phone as the pic attached shows, thought my eyes were seeing things,but it has definitely has gotten worse over the last few weeks, it easily seen on greys or white background.
Same like mine problem...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3182816
I've got the same issue on mine, but rather worse and mine is nearly a year old. Had no issues up until about a month ago an then a small bit of discolouration, then there was a second spot and then eventually it became what it is now it's been gradually getting worse and worse.

Maybe you push you power button too hard, lol.
It was also interesting to note that the Z2 had the exact same issue reported and displayed
