Horizontal green pixels

Hello, I've been having a lot of trouble finding a rom that would work perfectly but where many issues were resolved by switching back to KitKat, one issue still remains. There's a faint horizontal stripe of green pixels visible on dark backgrounds and is maybe 1-2 pixels thick. Sometimes if flashes, sometimes it goes away as soon as I touch the screen and most of the time it's not present at all. Also, it does not appear at the same position each time. I cannot find the source of that and I've disabled HW overlay to see if it helps but it does not. Any ideas what could the cause be? In the attachment you can see the stripe on the lower part of the screen.

Black bar on right of pictures when editing with Nougat update

I got the Nougat update on my Verizon Galaxy S6 a couple days ago. I noticed in gallery when I crop horizontal pictures on top & bottom it put a black bar on the right side. How much I crop depends how big it is, cropping left & right is fine.
Any type of cropping on vertical pictures are fine also.
Is anyone else having this issue ?

Yea, it's weird

Actually, when playing around with it more, whenever I would add just horizontal cropping, it would create a black bar on the bottom of the picture (this is in vertical orientation). This would not happen if I cropped it vertically.
I think it may have to do with the ratio of cropping or just the size. If its ratio become very long rectangular, that's when the black bar gets added in.

I noticed that too.

When I uploaded it to Facebook to ask people Facebook posts it as a 360 picture.

Having the same problem and find it irritating is there a way to correct?

Yep, same thing on my Note 5. Definitely a new bug. Never had this problem before. Seems like the only way around it is to use the ratio tool, which is NOT what I want

Same issue
Good lord it's 2018. Same issue. Any answer here?

download the pic to a pc to edit, this is simply to big of a problem to expect samsung to be able to fix....

Bottom of screen (navbar zone) becomes unresponsive.

This is a very strange behavior.
After yesterday working under the rain (and the phone got wet, but its not the first time) I cant do any gesture on bottom because there is no tactile response. Showing back the classic buttons doesnt work.
So I changed to different firmwares and roms and the problem persists.
Also did a factory reset through fastboot with no sucess.
So at this point I could think its a hardware problem (why? If almost full screen is working well but not the f***king navbar)
Trying a TEST APP to see which part of screen works or not, effectively bottom part doesnt work (about 6millimeters)
If I flip the screen to inverted portrait, the navbar works (but cant pull down the notification panel)
AND, THE STRANGEST BEHAVIOR ABOUT THIS:
If I pull down the notification panel, THEN the navbar works while panel is pulled down (altough its not all the responsive it must be)
So I post this to have some help or to ear similar behavior on yours.
And if somebody has technical knowns and explain if is possible this behavior in a tactile panel.

I think maybe when you pull down notifications panel, the navbar input layer moves up a little bit, enough to place in a screen zone with working touch interface.
So yes, the panel has broken maybe due to humidity/water.
The strange thing is that only a 2% of screen was affected.
I only have one thing left to do: replace the whole panel. It shall to fix it.

Update: Today is working well sometimes. Maybe is getting dry?...

Even if you have to replace the screen, it's not that big of a deal. A replacement for our mix 2s is about $35, which is much cheaper than other brands. I replaced mine myself.

Hi, i have exactly the same problem.
My screen is fine and not wet.
Is there any solution dir this?
Thanks

No. My solution until a new display arrived was to use any edge gestures to replace HOME, RECENTS and PULL NOTIFICATIONS PANEL (from left and right edges wich was working).
So you will have to replace the display (about 50€ in AliExpress with full frame)

Is this screen burn issue?

Today I use my device as usual and I saw something weird on the screen of my device. It becomes greenish.
I change the wallpaper into black and I see a bar on the top and bottom.
When I change the device cut out, it also moves lower.
Is this can be fixed without change the hardware?

I think that's normal, maybe its the app's issue, I don't see any burning there

Question Bug with proximity sensor

Hi guys,
It often happens to me that screens shuts off when I try to click on top tier of screen, it's really annoying especially with full screen apps.
I recently put on screen protector film but I don't know if it's due to this.
Anyone has this problem ?
Many thanks.

Are you rooted and using [MOD][Xposed+Magisk][Pre-Release] AOSP Mods - System modifications for AOSP-based Android 12+'s option to double-tap the status bar to sleep? If so, it might be related to that setting. I was trying to reproduce a different bug, playing a full-screen landscape YouTube video and I found almost every time I tried to make the status bar appear and then drag it down, I accidentally shut the screen off.
Luckily for me, I rarely try to do something like that while in a full-screen landscape app, so I'm keeping that setting on.
If you're not rooted or not using that Magisk Module, then ignore this.

I'm not.
It happens even whith WhatsApp when I select a message in a conversation and try to click on delete icon located in top screen, screen shuts off.
Where is the promixity sensor ?

I'm not really sure. I just unlocked my P7P and ran my finger across the status bar, back and forth and I never found it.

Meanwhile, the cutout for the proximity sensor has been slightly tweaked again and is more to the right of the front-facing camera than last year’s Pro phone.

I have the same problem. TMobile Visual Voicemail has its delete button just below and to the right of the front camera and the screen turns off before I can delete the playing voicemail. I have to go back to the full list of voicemails and delete from there.
