Fuzzy Screen - T-Mobile LG G2

Just got my replacement G2 from T-Mobile and uhhh the only thing bothering me is extremely annoying. The bottom 3/4 of my screen is fuzzy and its in any app and even shows in recovery. I can read text on it but I can't watch videos satisfactorily. I feel its a hardware issue but idk what to do. I have seen similar posts and no real solutions or ideas about a fix were posted. I just want a G2 that doesn't screw me over

Does anyone have this screen problem

Around the notification bar area, touch the screen hard. Does your screen feel like its clicking in like the blackberry storm? I have a problem and I'm wondering if it's only me

no mate i cant feel anything like that on mine...
I don't have any clicking going on but there is a noticeable amount of give. But I think I might already be taking it back cause my screen has an abnormally green hue to it. IDK?
My screen has a slight give to it, nothing i would worry about, chances are because of the curved glass.
played with a couple other NS's and they did the same thing, dont trip

Anyone ever notice the touch screen issue?

I never saw this posted before,but imo was a big bug.
When you like say go to settings and slowly scroll say down, then stop for a second and slowly go the opposite way, you can move your finger poetry far before the screen jumps to your finger..... Not like that on my vibrant or sensation... Especially in gaming that was annoying especially shooting games requiring fine aiming readjustments.... I believe the sgs2 has the issue as well, like the threshold is off...
Anyone else notice that?
Also those calling me a troll stop. I still want a g2x when its a better phone...
YouTube video of my sensation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58bbvC78BR0&feature=youtube_gdata_player On multitouch test it moves very nicely when I stop and slowly move it again. You can see the sensation can move it slow....... Try that with the g2x and it will not respond right away but then jump to the right position....
Here's what I'm talking about but on a sgs2. This is what my g2x did and so does my friends... So i know they all do at least stock.. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?deskto...e.com/watch?v=sRXcBcpSD1w&v=sRXcBcpSD1w&gl=US

Mine didn't do this but it always takes me a couple of swypes to unlock it. Also, when scrolling, it seems like a flick of my finger doesn't get very far. For instance, in the app drawer, it will take two to three swypes just to get to the bottom.

Was that on the stock rom? I remember the same thing on my phone when it was stock. This was fixed in other roms though. I've been using Ultimate and CM7 primarily and they scroll super fast and no problems on the lock screen either.
Mines does this. It is most notable in the browser it the xda app. It is annoying.

Its not an issue with the touchscreen itself. Its the rom you're using and the way it handles the physics of scrolling. I'm using CM7 now, and Ultimate G2X before this, and they both scroll a lot faster.
Mines does it in the setting but it doesn't bother me I had to try to make it happen no big deal just give me gingerbread

My touchscreen does not have this problem. Stock and rooted btw.
Please stop trolling the g2x forums. It is ridiculous that you sell a phone and then keep posting threads about your problems with it.
If someone else with a g2x has an issue that you dealt with and you have a solution or can confirm that they are not alone, by all means be helpful.
Otherwise, you're being a troll.

I seriously think you are inmature and your intentions of coming back to the G2x forums after getting rid of the G2x are not good ones.
Please, if this is going to be your attitude don't post non-existent problems of a phone you no longer have.

Whatever RaycerX09 issues are I don't know, with 4 posts he way off base.
There is a video on Youtube of a G2x with an early release of 2.3 which he give a review of.
He notes the problem of slow recognition on the unlock swipe. I have this problem in the all apps section about 20% of the time, slow to pick up and or not picking up.....have to multi swipe.
This sounds close enough to the problem in the OP. Long story short is the reviewer says the problem was greatly if not totally fixed in 2.3....he specifically addressed the unlock recognition, which should be the worse case.
This problem was fixed once I loaded ADW or Launcher Pro.
Some launchers change those things but stock did have a weird scroll. Its like it tried to scroll a page.
CM7 fixed that in one of the earlier builds. On the latest nightly it is smooth as silk.

Yeah mine does the exact same thing. It shows itself mostly in the browser, sometimes it can be quite the pain in the ass just scroll slowly because it constantly wants to take these big jumps.
Mine does it on stock using LauncherPro. The "rom" that affects this is the stock ROM, so it is LG's fault then Not even rooted
Those calling me a troll need to behave yourselves. Don't cry I was wondering if anyone has the issue cause mine did and so does my friend that I'm rooting...
Helping a buddy out and mentioned it , I remember mine had the issue... Don't get your panties in a wad .. tall ruining my high..lol
I've had my G2x since day one that it was released... never experienced anything like that with the touch screen - other than having to swipe more than once in a blue moon to unlock it...

Lines on Screen, please help

Whenever I turn on my screen, I see lines or a fuzzy gray box flashing across my screen. They go away in less than a second, but I am afraid that my screen is broken. This also happened on my first charge, so I was wondering if the cause could be my battery which I bought on ebay (samsung 1500mah). Also, my new phone almost never connects to 4g even though my old one got full bars.
Please help, I googled my problem and came up with nothing. I still have my first phone, could I send back the same phone they sent me in the box?
Thank you.
What you see on your screen is apparently common for other charge owners myself included. Saw it mentioned as screen "static"in a thread on here somewhere which it can look like sometimes. I don't think it's been associated with any screen issues so I wouldn't trip on it too hard over it. I'll take that quirky behavior with the screen quality!

Screen problem ignorance

It is pretty crazy how people who have the skyrocket ignore that the screen looks awful when dim. Its even worse that Samsung has not stopped production to fix the problem either. You would think the white one would come with a fixed screen. Usually by this time you have people writing reviews and ranting about phone defects on YouTube, yet with this phone nothing. Just hoping someone agrees with me and maybe we can stick these problem up samsungs behind.

Dont think anyone cares that much
Why use the screen dimmed? Kinda defeats the purpose of having a super amoled

Agreed.
I have mine set at 50% and its bright enough for me all the time.
I never go lower than that though, so I personally never experience poor screen quality.

I've never notice the problems mentioned throughout the forum regarding dim settings and colors/lines. I'm sure that to a good eye mine is too afflicted.
One a side note, took my screen protector off today, and man! is that screen gorgeous. It's gonna be hard to put it back on, but I learned that lesson with the Atrix when I took it's protection off and it hit the ground.
You see, and that is the problem. You are ignoring to issue. So when your in a dark room you have your screen full brightness? I don't so it does bother me.

I agree my screen sucks at low brightness. I mainly run my low to save power only turn it up when outside. I wrote a review on Samsung site and did give a bad review on the screen.

I just picked up a white skyrocket yesterday and I've got the screen issues / lines. Looks like a "brushed metal" overlay on top of everything.
I'm going to be getting it exchanged for a new one tomorrow.

Maybe I got lucky... I've had my I727-SR for about 4wks now and haven't experienced the screen lines / screen problems others are posting.... I consistently run at low brightness with a screen protector and screen looks perfect.... no lines, blobs or other anomalies.

Mine has it. So does the white one I looked at. It bothers me and I notice it often. But its the only phone on AT&T that I want and LTE just went live a week ago. I will sadly have to live with it :-(

My screen is great. No lines or any of that kind of stuff.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
just picked one up today. white one.
i see the lines below 50% brightness. above, they are gone.
I believe this is just a simple issue of having the same pixel density of the galaxy S2 but with a larger screen.
this should be device wide.......i dont see why people should have different results....
edit: i have it only above 30% brightness actually....
No problems here... at 0 it still looks great, no lines or weird issues

I have personally seen this vary from device to device. what may not be that bad on yours could be 20x's worse on another. others of us are in fact picky and expect more for what we paid for this device.
To each their own

playing video
When I play video ie Netflix YouTube etc I notice that the picture quality is not.what I expect.from a 250$ phone. I love this phone and that is.my only complaint. I have tried.adjusting.the brightness but it doesn't seem to help. Is this a problem that all are having?
I just got the Skyrocket today and just now turned the brightness all the way down and did not see any issues with screen clarity. Looks pretty good to me.
Infused with Android DNA
Mine has the same issues. However, they are ignorable if you customize the look of your phone. I changed the screen density and customized my phone with a dark bg and modified system apks.

[Q] Black spot/shadow on nexus 5's screen

I have just received a refurbished nexus 5 and i noticed a rather distracting blemish on the screen under the glass (on the status bar to the left of the wifi icon), it's not a solid colour so i don't think it's dead pixels, it's more of a shadow and it's barely visible when the phone is in landscape but flip the phone portrait and there it is.
I have never seen anything like it before so it would be interesting to find out what it is and if i can fix it easily myself.
Sent it back and get another

I have been waiting a few weeks now for the place i bought it from to get in some new stock but they haven't as of yet.
It would have been nice to know what the defect is and if it's easy to fix so i know if it's worth taking it in for repair
