I Have a weird problem that I have not been able to solve by myself or with ASUS "help". After having my screen replaced due to dead pixels by ASUS (not an easy feat!) I now have what I can call non existent gradients on my menus and other apps that have that nice gradient colour (like android menus have in settings and stuff), where it used to go subtly from a darker grey to a lighter grey in a seamless way now I have blocks of different grey colours...not seamless and nice. It happens not only in the menus but also in other apps, like the main blue screen of the facebook app for example. Sent back the pad and ASUS insists it is good and all normal! I have given up on them and don`t want to have sent again to the Czech Republic for repairs that don`t happen. It happens with all roms and other than that screen is great. Nice vibrant colours in video and games...but that gradient colour problem is tearing me apart. Only thing I have managed to do is replace the menus gradient with solid black with the help of xframework tools. Anyone else seen this? Should I open up the pad and see if it is a connector problem? (unlikely since all else is good), did ASUS use a wrong screen? Calibration? It is so weird.... Plus now I have to keep my brightness at maximum since the light sensor although working makes it too dim in auto mode. Is it related? Please help...can`t find help anywhere else.

I noticed after a few days of using it that in many programs (tasks, contacts, calendar, & others, but not ALL programs), the screen is marked by gray horizontal lines or bars which fade out towards the left side of the screen. I wondered if it may be a problem in the screen protectors I use (Belkin), but the fact that the lines do not appear on the screen in certain programs seems to negate that possibility. Is anyone familiar with this?
Those lines are part of the theme that you are using. If you're using an old PPC2002 theme rather than WM2003 theme, sometimes the colour of the lines is too dark which makes it really hard so see what's on screen. Try changing the theme back to the default WM2003 one
not good
I have 2 options for the TODAY setting in personal settings - "spiral" or "windows default." I get the same lines with both options. They are more a light blue color when I choose the Windows default Today setting. What can I do? Those lines look like crud, to be frank, and a very faulty design.
Maybe you can dowload an other theme at www.pocketthemes.com and see what you can do
Good Luck
PS: Or make your own theme!!! :wink:
all the same
Sorry to say, I have tried various themes, including very light color and pastel - I still get the light blue lines going across the CALENDAR, TASKS, etc. I hope someone has a fix for this. Does it happen on everyone's PDA who use PPC 20003?
I've suspected for a while that my phone has issues with it's colors, because I can't seem to use any background without it pixelating (text mostly) or shows very unsmooth color transitions from black to white.
Whenever I select an image for wallpaper, the part outside the orange area has a browning overlay on the colors that just looks wrong.
Images full of colors look very good, it's the black and white ones with fading from dark to bright that looks horrible.
Could someone do me a favor and download this image, set it as background, and tell me if it looks clear and good on your screen, and the text looks good.

It seems like I keep running into problems with this phone
Thanks in advance.
On my Nexus 5 I have a slight lightbleeding on the top of the screen. It goes all the cross the top. Have anyone seen this on their device?
The weird thing about it is, that it is almost invisible when the topbar is black, but very much visible when the topbar is e.g. blue, red, yellow, …
I'm not even sure what it is, maybe it is just a nocebo effect, I think it is there so it is and it is annoying the hell out of me.
I attached a photo of it, It was made next to a window with low backlight.

Hey guys I've noticed a screen problem with my Samsung Galaxy S6. On my phone I can only detect it when using a black background/any image that is black. So I was swiping through my homescreen, and noticed a a color shift that would cover the sides of the icons. As I swiped back and forth through the different screens. I figured it was maybe the launcher I was using(I'm using nova launcher prime beta). So I switched back to the regular Samsung launcher and experienced the same problem. It's not a big deal but I think I'm going to get it replaced.

Actually I think I have the same issue. It particularly shows when scrolling in apps with dark (black) elements which border to another dark - but not black - (e.g grey) element.
For example in the 'relay for reddit' app with the night OLED skin enabled. The usual list background is black, while already visited links have a greyish background. if you scroll through the list, you notice that color shifting. I just did a quick video to demonstrate the issue. It is very difficult to see there though .

Is that a singular issue which would be solved by a replacement or is it a general problem? As this issue only is visible when black pixels become lit I assume it is a general AMOLED issue :-/
So recently i started to notice that in my home screen (touchwiz or other launchers) at the top of the screen there is some grey lines it is best visible if i use a black wallpaper and set the brightness to the maximum. This doesn't show anywhere except on the home screen. I tried other wallpapers, and if i look at it in the gallery or turn on ultra power saving mode there is no grey lines.(my device is galaxy s6)
Does anyone know what it is? Or how to fix it?
(i hope you guys can understand me sry for my english)
So, if you switch to your pictures and images gallery, the lines disappear?
Did you drop your device on the floor or did it incurred any damages lately?

It's a common issue. It's stupid Touchwiz/Samsung system which creates a small overlay at the top of Homescreens (any launchers) & lockscreens. In gallery etc, it's perfectly black since no overlay.
I don't think there is a fix. U can use a slightly greyish instead of full black wallpaper. It's not a big problem though
Oh i understand. Thank you for help. I was thought my phone has a problem.
Sometimes the grey lines can appear in Samsung mobiles if you use a bad launcher or a theme which is not compatible with the phone. You can try updating to a new version and see if fixes the problem, or use a light gray wallpaper as already suggested. Another couple of things to try... take a screenshot of your phone and test it on your laptop to see if the lines are still there. If not then it could be a problem with the screen itself. It's also worth restarting your phone in Safe Mode as this mode only runs with pre-installed apps. If you don't see the lines then an app could be your culprit
