Hi
I`ve been using my SW2 for 2 weeks and I have noticed few spots on my screen. See below.
It seems like the display has been de-colorized or influenced by most frequent touching zones on the display.
I still have warranty is this an issue and I should return this watch or?..
any suggestions what is going on?
PS: I have not exposed my watch to water or anything.

I've had my watch for over 3 months and have no problems like this. You could contact Sony and see if they will repair or replace it. Looks like a warranty issue to me.
if you look at the watch at a 90 degree angle, you will not see this, but if you look at lets say a 30 or 20 degree, you will see this, it's a LCD backlight washing issue, it's a common issue with LCD screens, i have a very slight washing, nothing like yours, you should def send it back to sony, this is too much washing
This is what happened to me today, I`ve tried restarting the watch and no help. Not sure how to do hard reset and not sure if it would help.
I`m sending them back.

I have the same problem! So if we are both with this issue, it looks like technical iisue of this watch.
What's more sometimes lines and weird colors disappear but after that they will appear again. :/

Okay, I've got exactly the same problem about a month after I brought it. I got mine replaced. I've got it back today after waiting for a month. Hope the new one will last longer.
What I suspect is a battery issue where the battery heats up and also heats the display. The reason to suspect the battery is because it was kinda weak and lasted 2 days at most with very light usage and was heating a bit during charge which may be the cause of display failure.
this is what SONY replied to me
" That appears to be a hardware fault so better send it back or have it assessed at Sony service center."
and this is fresh screen from this morning, the defect is changing but it is getting worst and worst.

The screen was perfectly good untill yesterday, and today morning when i woke up I saw vertical lines on the display. Tried turning it off, removed temper glass but the problem is still there. When the mobile is turned on from sleep, the display is perfectly fine but the lines appear slowly after 2 seconds. So is this a major or a minor hardware or a software problem. I have also posted the screenshots.
Thanks.
Is it there during booting?

No, not during the boot, turned out it was damaged screen, and the service center is charging me for the screen even though there is no physical damage. They say it was internal damage, you can't see it, but we know it. Is it true?
I think it comes under abnormal screen and it is covered under warranty.
Today I gone to adjust brightness of screen but I don't know suddenly display is fully black, I cant do anything. please suggest how can I repair it?
Bro, don't visit normal service centers they are not good and mostly they have very poor service, I would suggest you to use pickmi service and send the phone to them, they will resolve the issue and send your phone back faster than normal service center guys, my phone battery was not charging, I got it fixed in 15days in which there were Diwali holidays also.
Try that bro.
Got this problem with my screen,it became yellow one a small side of the screen,can I do something to fix it myself or I need to fix it with my warranty?
Looks like an hardware issue... How did you got that?

Charged the phone while I was doing some work ,I unplugged it at 90%,at the moment I didn't realized that the screen is yellow.After a few days I saw that the screen was a bit odd,if the screen shows a black photo,were the yellow spots are white.
Did it fall on the floor, took bad bumps, stayed on a heat font for a long period..? It's too much bizzarre to face this as a result of a software issue/error. You could try to send it to service center saying that you found it like that from one day to another, if it isn't a result of an accidental impact caused by you they should fix that by replacing the screen.
This is what my son's One Plus 7pro screen looked like one morning. No physical damage just unreadable display. I hooked up a HDMI cable to a monitor and it displays fine so it's not software. Touches are responsive and I have called customer support with no solution. I did a factory reset and it still had the issue so definitely not software related. Didn't use the phone for about three days and now it's working fine. Am I going to have this issue again? Anyone heard of this problem with a purple and greenish display?
Probably something wrong with the LCD or LCD cable
Looks like screen burn-in to me.

In that case it's probably a faulty ribbon cable or something similar, can't see much more from what info we have
(Also, do ask if he had left the display on for a long time, maybe overnight, on high brightness. If so, it's a burnt screen.)

I think the network has been replaced by a new machine if it is in warranty

Heya, I have the exact same issue with my One Plus 7t Pro. The screen looks exactly like that and is perfectly responsive (except the fingerprint reader can't recognise my finger) but unusable due to the discolouration. Did you ever discover what the issue was? Did you send it off for repair?

One Plus customer service said they would repair but I couldn't get a ticket created because I bought it through Sprint. Weird loop of going back and forth through both companies. I did a factory reset and the issue didn't fix but twice it fixed itself. The first didn't last too long before the problem came back. The second time it just fixed itself and has been working fine since. My son was sleeping with it at not listening to music and I think it was a heat issue. After factory resetting it and turning it off, I let it sit there for about a day then when I powered it back on, everything was fine. Has been working great ever since. I make sure he doesn't have it on his bed at night anymore. My guess is it's heat or too much pressure on the screen. No way of figuring it out. Not sure if that info will help you or not. I would contact one plus support.

Heya,
Thanks for getting back to me quickly. I also purchased through a third party, so I have contacted them regarding repairs. Did your son mention anything regarding water damage or was this not a concern? I'm feeling a little more confident that it is repairable, cause it looks pretty scary!
I thought about water damage he did have it in the bathroom while taking a hot shower.
Hi everybody.
I’ve had this phone for 10 months now and it’s been great. Yesterday, when i was trying to make a call, it was telling me that i am too close to the screen. I understood that the proximity sensor was acting funny, but I didn’t had time to look into it, because it was not covered by anything and it was in good light. This morning it was a short white flash when I unlocked it or when I was turning the screen off. It worked great all day after that. Then this evening i was using the phone and all of the sudden the screen started to flash white, then it would turn off fast and back on all white. It did that for 4-5 times, then it went in the state you see in the clip below. At one tine, it turned on like nothing happened for 3-4 seconds.
If i plug the charger in, it reacts normal. It's making the charging sound and it vibrates. Seems to be alive in the background, even though it's not displaying anything.
Does it have anything to do with the proximity sensor? Is it the ribbon cable connecting the display to the motherboard faulty? Should i just order a new display assembly?
Interesting, the next day seems to behave a bit different. I had remote erased it, i didn't want any of my personal data to remain on it.
I have found out that if the brightness level is low, i takes a few seconds until it starts blinking. If the brightness is high, then it does that straight away.
Ok, i will post a follow up for anyone else having the same problem. Now i can see that the display is damaged on the top left corner, the pixels are staying lit up bright. Now i can use it on low brightness for longer periods of time without flickering.
I have ordered a replacement screen assembly and i'm still waiting for it, as i don't have the phone under warranty. Looking forward to getting it fixed.
I have also ordered a replacement screen and will replace it when the shipment arrived. Have you found a repair manual for the screen replacement?
I have already removed the back cover of my phone and it seems it will not be so difficult. But it would be better to follow a manual.

I read this post now, I've got this kinda of broblem a month ago, but this happened only when the phone temperature became hot, I mean over 40°C, after a factory reset everything became normal, I no longer got high temperature and this problem don't appear, so at least in my phone it wasn't a hardware problem.

How was the teardown ? I can't find any videos on it. The axon 7 was a pain for me because the aluminum case was a pain to take off around the corners and got damaged a bit. Hopefully removing the back of the axon 10 is a little easier . Thanks for any info
Hi All
Has anyone had any issues with a black screen?
Everything else works like incoming calls and notifications but the screen it totally black!
Woke up early hours last night and noticed no AOD so tried to turn my phone on but the screen was just dead. Tried the volume and power button but still no joy
Power it down completely then plug in the charger.
If nothing shows on the screen it sounds like you lost some significant hardware... maybe just a connector.

Same happened to my SM-N9860 unit when I woke up today. I about to unlock and the display suddenly went black screen. Did everything but no luck. I am also sure it's the display that's f***d up. The phone is still working - I can still access it in Dex and Link to Windows. This is my second Samsung phone with f**d up display for unknown reason. This is crap Samsung. Not expecting for this from an expensive flagship smartphone. I swear this is the last.

By the way, how did you fix your phone?
I tried searching it on the net, seems a number of Note 20 ultra units are experiencing the same.
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note20/Note-20-Ultra-Black-Screen-Phone-no-display/td-p/1437825
Seems that display replacement is the only fix.

Poor parts QC.
Samsung will substitute components and smaller chipsets in the middle of a production run. This can lead to unpredictable behavior especially after firmware updates... or outright failures like this.
Not reassuring especially with a flagship phone.

I can't believe it but my screen unexpectedly revives itself after a day.

hi im facing exact same thing in my N986 B Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. I had 10 percent battery left. i had put phone on charge and saw after 20 minutes and tghe screen was black.
Now its blackscreen can connect with tv via hdmi dex mode
but phone restarts after 10 minutes.
the touch seems fine as mouse function works phone is on but no display
can you tell exactly what you did when your phone revieved after one day
did u keep it on. charge all tiime tried reset or removed charging
or nothing and tried after 1 day
Edit After 24 hours of tapping slappingrebooting installing stock firmware. my display came back alive.
last thing was i was using phone in dex mode and trying to open close camera app rapidly by direct touch on screen. i dont know what worked but it saved my 300 dollars of screen replacement
I have exactly the same issue.
I was typing on whatsapp when suddenly screen get black. It was on friday morning. Notifications were ok, voice commands too. Touchscreen ok, I could use it normally when using my TV as screen with HDMI cable or with my notebook, when connected to windows or even Dex.
One day earlier I had an issue with the new magisk update. I freeze magisk manager wich was force closing but later, I managed to reinstall with dex and was working fine. Not sure if it's related.
I already flashed fresh stock Android R rom, wich I thought would solve any issues related to magisk or any other software issue.
24h after flash stock rom and keep force rebooting and taping, and my display is still dead.
Tried to tap, slap, shake (I can her some noise next to camera module when shaking, is it normal? I took off S-pen and microsd tray to see if it was the cause, but the noise still persists). No damage, water, or anything else. Only 2 months of use.
Display is still dead.
I'm draining battery now with some apps that also vibrate phone, to see what happens when full drained.
I live in Manaus/Brazil and repair centers are not working until March 23 because of Sars-CoV2. And my knox is tripped. It would cost a lot If I have to replace display or even the phone, since they probably will say it's no longer covered by warranty.
Any tips are welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Hope I have that lucky as well.
It happened to me again today. Surprisingly, a strong knock at center of the screen revived it again.

Hardware failure. May be a loose connection, cracked solder joint, trace failure on the mobo, or a bad component.
Intermittents are the hardest problems to find...

Not good if there's a recall... crap QC is getting to be a bad Samsung habit.
Those of you with BSOD issues: Did you have intermittent wifi connectivity issues as well? My N20U had the 'connected to wifi AP but no internet' for the last month. Then today after unplugging the OEM charger, checking charge level, never picking the phone up from the desk, and returning to it 30 minutes later the BSOD had hit. No amount of hard restarts or waiting fixed it and it had to get shipped back. Just wondering if there is any correlation between the wifi issue and the screen going out, and if people should start sending their note in ASAP if the wifi problem occurs before the screen goes?
hello
i had the same problem (didn't have any Wifi issues before)
and after the screen went black for 2 day , it came back and worked for a few hours.. then went off again and Never came back
i tried everything, resets , cables , connecting to Dex or Hdmi , updating.. but Never worked
i went to Samsung and they said screen must be replaced ( will pay for it as i am out of warranty)
can you tell me what have you done or if anything worked for you?
My screen went black after a screen replacement. Only the front glass was broken not the digitizer or actual screen. From what I can tell it's not just the screen that's dead, it's the digitizer too. The S-Pen board underneath it all isn't even registering. When I plug it in the computer doesn't see it so Dex won't connect and there is no signal for HDMI to work. Had the USB port replaced just to be sure it wasn't a bad port.
It's like some one took the graphics card out of a computer and took the touch screen monitor. The phone still gets signal. It connected to my smart Fossil watch and I could answer calls and texts.
But the phone is 9 months old. And from what I've heard from parts distributors it's not the screen that's the issue. So now I have a new motherboard. Now I have to figure out how to program it....
