Hello
now I got my second G Flex 2 and i was happy because there wasnt any yellow spot and now there are again there.
I like this phone really. The UI, that its curved and much more but I think the Display is very bad.
If I take my Note 3 side by side and start an lcd test where I choose an Grey Color, on the note 3 everything Looks perfect but on the g Flex it Looks like a bad Quality Display because the Colors are not the same and a few Areas are darker. You Need to look very Long and closely to see that.
If I set brightness lower and look on a White Screen I can see the yellow spots. But the biggest Problem is that the Grey dosent look clear.
Does anyone can confirm that or should I get a third one?
I didint know which Phone I would take.... every other phone is boring..

Your phone got much more and stronger yellow spots but it dosent should have any yellow spot.
I want an perfect Screen and give this phone only one last Chance.
I send it back today and hope for an new one with an good Display.
If it´s the same again, I think I get the One M9
It cost 10€ more a month and 30€ at the beginning.
For the G Flex 2 I pay 50€ a month and 1€ at the beginning. All net and 6GB LTE
Mine is going back for this very reason, I noticed a couple of days ago and its so bad now even on the dialling screen it looks like some one has spilt orange juice, not happy tbh.
Or pissed on it haha. I sold mine. Hope it wont come back.
I just photographed display flex2 and note4:
note at left, flex2 - right.
at both one and the same picture - 80% gray.
It would be nice to know that every g Flex 2 got the same Display Problem.

Another user claimed that his replacement hasn't got that problem at all.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60166413&postcount=7
That´s nice to know.
My replacement had this issue too and now I get a new one.
I hope it arrives today or tomrrow.
First I didint see any yellow spot and was happy. After a few days I saw that on a Grey Screen the Colors dont look perfect.
Like with a bad backlight on a few spots. Last try for this phone :/
Get another device why you can, it seems most people are. I loved my flex 2 but it was just issue after issue for a new device. I had 2 of them before i went with the note 4
Well a little update for you all......
Replacement had exactly the same issue, so sent that back and kept the original one. I then went directly to the Vodafone shop. The 2 they had in stock had the same issue.
So I'm now conversing with LG directly.
I would suggest, in the UK at least, that anyone with an similar issue creates a ticket on their system and it may gain a bit more weight.
Really ? :/
Now I think every LG G Flex 2 have this issue.
So I shouldnt get a new LG G Flex 2?
I only like the M9 but not so much like the LG G Flex 2

I've had the flex for 4 days now and don't have this issue. But I'm also in the US and they might be manufactured differently or something.

Guys ..
It is a production `problem` and keep in mind that pOLED and other OLED/SuperOLED displays are very, VERY different. pOLED you can bend, thus the curvy flex.. It is not a problem as someone call it, but a production issue, as they are very expensive to produce. So dont be alarmed or something.. It is not visible on any other colours/backgrounds but grey. So.. Keep calm, and flex 2 .
)
Its not an an cheap phone so I want an good screen and if I see a litle yellow Spot once, i Look on that again and again.
I hope that the next one is ok.
Vodafone have a 48 hour exchange Service but I dont trust them. Never again Vodafone
I totally understand you though, it is not a cheap phone and there should be no problems with the display.. But it is a different technology as I said previously .. So..
A also have seen some discoloration on a grey background, and on some other colours when screen brightness is at 0 , but it is not a game changer for me.. I like the phone and that it is almost invisible so.. It is what it is.
No reply from LG, STILL, but I decided to turn the brightness up full, after a couple of days there was no yellow on a white screen at all.
I am now turning the brightness down slightly each day to see at what point it comes back.
On a side note there appears to be very little difference, if any, in battery life to the screen full up or low :/
Hm.. That is interesting to hear. Will try that ..
I dont realy understand how and why they have disappeared though..
Sent from my LG-H955 using XDA Free mobile app
Will try that too.
I got now my third Device and i think that every g flex 2 have this problem. I try to live with that but if that dosent work i try to get another device like G4, P8 or M9
Im on 10c and everything runs smooth

Just got my TP today, I like it very much but what I don't like is the Yelowish display.
I had a Kaiser before and the display was lovely Blueish and very bright.
Is this normal for TP to have Yelowish display? or should I take it back for exchange?
Pleas advice

It seems that some of the Diamond have Yellowish display and some with the Blueish display.
Very confusing.

Seems that I am the only one with this problem since there are 41 views and only one reply
Thank you
My new TP is surprisingly being the same condition as you. It attracted me cos its VGA screen. However, compare with my old 818pro, it does not get bit advantage on screen, but come out yellowish.
Do you seem to feel excessive overheating with your phone?
Do you leave it on the charger for a long time?
Do you use non-OEM batteries?

What is all the above got to do with a Yellowish display tint?
no yellow tint here... I mean this sounds strange...
It's probably the same situation as with the Diamond- 2 different suppliers for the screens. If more people chime in then maybe we can see if there are more people who've stayed silent but also have yellowish screens. Mine is white and bright, but I've had my TP for a month and it's probably from a different batch.
Mine is slightly more yellow compared to my Tytn, but nothing annoying.
Hmm mine isn't yellowish, but i do have other screen problems, like teksts that seem to "Burn in" or are still visible on the volume control screen...
Do you also have that problem or only the yellowish ?
A picture is worth a million words, let us see what your talking about. A yellowish screen could be cause by a bad or broken screen cable like it would happen on some laptops after time but that on the phone doesn't sound normal at all especially a new one. If you post a picture maybe we can see your problem. I haven't got mine yet so I have no idea what users are talking about when they say mine is sometimes yellowish or blue.

Thank you all for your replies, I took the phone to HTC and compared it with other phones there and they were all the same.
Seems that they use different types of display or from another manufacturer.
So I just returned it to them and got my mony back as I discovered this before I use the phone.
I did notice that the device they had there as a demo evice was different than mine and the display was like the Kaiser display but they refused to give me another device as the phone is working properly.
Best regards
Um, better get it exchanged then pal...
Yellowish LCD and terrible in different angle-viewing
Yellowish LCD and terrible in different Viewing-angle!
Noam23 said:
I know that I'm not the only one reporting this, but I'm the first one to provide pictures and video that prove that the problem is not so small as some might think.
It seems HTC started to use lower quality LCD screens with some (maybe all) of the newer Diamond units. These screens have a yellowish tint, and seem to have lower contrast.
Here is the proof (it's a comparison with my old Kaiser):
(both devices are at maximum backlight, and the Diamond's "auto backlight" option is off)
Pictures:
http://img45.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=10590_Picture_003_122_764lo.jpg
http://img24.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=10597_Picture_005_122_672lo.jpg
The difference seen in the picture is a bit exaggarated in comparison to what I see in real life (even though I did not touch the picture with any editing software, this is right from the camera), so I've included a video too, which more accurately portray the differences:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cVGORLm-Qc
(in real life the difference is just a bit more pronounced than in this video)
It is important to notice that without a direct comparison to a unit like the Kaiser (or the first batch of Diamonds), it might be hard to know that your Diamond has this phenomena, because even with this phenomena the screen look decent.
My fear is that both types of LCD screens are going to sell with new Diamond units from now on, making those who bought the yellowish screen unable to ever sell the unit for a decent amount of money (when they feel like upgrading).
We need a formal answer from HTC regarding this issue.

Me too, I was sending my TP to repair after using it for 2 months, due some really dissapointed problem like the LCD screen bottom corner peeling off and sliding keyboard starting to become not align with the body.
So they said they're going to replace the LCD 1st and return to me while waiting for the new stock of sliding keyboard. So I just got back my TP from SIS (HTC Malaysian Distributor) today, and found that the screen became VERY yellowish and terrible in different angle-viewing, besides, the new LCD screen viewing angle is terrible, some more fading off and cloudy, like covered with a greyish+yellowish cloud like that!
I did complain to the girl @ SIS, but she said she can't do anything! "this is the NEW BATCH of original screen from HTC!"
But after 'google' thru the net, I've found a lot of other country Touch Pro/Diamond has this issue. And get replaced a new one for them by HTC. Then why Malaysian can't?! This is unfair!!!!!
DON'T BE SILENT! LET'S SHOUT THIS OUT LOUD TILL THEY REPLACE IT FOR US!!! Check this out, more others has this dissapointing & terrible quality problem for this expensive device!!!

I was going to suggest getting an eye test, but there's an obvious difference.
It's scandalous (for Diamond owners anyway)
i recently got the samsung galaxy note 10.1 and after seeing how BAD the screen actually is i realized i cannot stand a bad black level i plan on selling this and buying a asus padfone 2
now my question is how good is the black level on a padfone 2 is it perfect black or is it as terribly bad as the note 10.1? as i am not sure if i want to go through that again
i have read that lcd technology can't show good black only SUPER AMO LED + does but amoled is also extremely over saturated i remember when i saw a galaxy note for the first time the colors were terrible
from my understanding it uses a technology called Super IPS + 2 or something
i figured the one x would use the same technology so i googled it and checked if it had good black according to reviews it has bad black
so back to my question is the padfone 2 able to show perfect black with no bleeding from either light or colors? (i have seen a iphone 4s and that has bad backlight bleeding)
as the black the note 10.1 shows is unacceptable it makes live wallpapers with a hint of black impossible ot enjoy the colors seem to melt in with the black and then theres that low resolution
side question what color is the padfone 2? i have seen it in so many different colors
one picture shows it very perfect black (perfect color in my opinion)
one picture shows it dark grey
another picture shows it glittery light grey (the grey that made me pass on the padfone 1)
The black its a nicely black and when I turn off the display its a real black.

No.
No LCD display of any sort will be as good as SuperAMOLED when it comes to reproducing blacks; the technology is entirely different.
If you want perfect black, go SuperAMOLED. If you want perfect colour, go LCD.

well i don't know then i guess i should cancel my order and i guess i am so picky that i will never find a phone i actually like
yesterday i saw a youtube video and i thought it looked off with the bottom bezel being so much bigger then the top which then resulted in me not wanting the phone at all
so i told myself if it won't get deliverd on promised date being january 2nd i would cancel it
i guess phones are simply not for me
then again a remake of the sony ericsson p910i with android and with the same de attachable keyboard would probably be my ideal phone

so the black level is not good i would be able to see light in the black including bleeding of colors?

So I RMA'd and Google sent me a new Nexus 5 from the new "311k" batch. My original Nexus 5 is a "launch" version of the "310k" batch...
I turn my phone on and I immediately see a yellow/brownish tint to the new one they sent me (311k). Now, is this something that's permanent or will it get better with more use of the phone? My original Nexus 5 has bright whites with no beige tint to them...
I took some pics with an S3, the differences in pictures seem minor...in person it's literally night and day. Especially when using an app like hangouts...I'm sure if I had a better camera it'd pick it up.

I am not. I searched google and it seems to be an issue some people are having...but like I said it's odd to me because it's such a drastic difference and you can notice it everywhere on the phone.
You can't even say the whites are "white"
That's really interesting. There is a way to find it what type of screen out has with a terminal command. It's in a screen thread here somewhere. It would be good to know exactly what screens both the phones have. I noticed when I got my phone it had a brownish, reddish tint and flashing a custom kernel gave me amazing colors.

I know kernels can change the colors but why would it be different if it were a software issue? I know the 311k didn't have to download an update as the 310k's did when you turn on the phone.

Well its only there to protect the screen during transit. Have you compared them without it on? It is possible it causes a slight tint to the screen?
As much as I know, yellow tint is normal with new screens. It goes away after some days of usage.
Firstly 311 just indicates 2013 month 11 (November) production date and 310 was month 10 - its not a build standard despite what many seem to be thinking. If something in production changes one day then you'll need the whole serial number to know if it's before or after a change.
My first was November production (311) and it came pre-loaded with Kit Kat - but it had a serious screen defect (colour banding and distortions) and was replaced by another November (311). I would say the second does have warmer whites but as it all works as designed I'm happy.

Same thing happened to me on my replacement. The first one seemed super white (along with some dead pixels) and the new one has a warmer (yellower) tone to it. At first I thought the same thing, is this a defect. And then I thought either way I like a warmer tone on a screen. The brighter one almost hurt my eyes actually.. Since I've been using the new screen for a while I think it may have brightened up some, but I don't have my defective N5 to compare it to. I guess my point is that I don't think it is defective. I think it is an improvement over the first one. Especially since I don't have any dead pixels and my vibrator motor is stronger too.
Just got mine 3 days ago and has the warmer looking screen. I do prefer the cooler screens like my N4 had but will live with it since there are no dead pixels or other issues people have reported.

Wanted to update this thread...
So I got a replacement for the 2nd phone which had a yellow hue...but then when I got the 3rd phone and compared the screens, the yellow hue on the 2nd phone had gone away and the 3rd had the yellow hue.
So in my conclusion, it takes a few days - a week for the screen to break in.
Like almost everyone, I had to wait 3 weeks for my moto g to come in, and when it finally did...one week later I had to send it back for repair. :/
The screen was really bad in certain areas, mainly the top 1/2 inch all the way across and the bottom left corner, about a thumb size portion of the screen. When ever I would view a picture in FB or IG, watch a movie or pictures from my gallery, if there was a bright spot "bright white" in particular, it would display yellow pixels or lines in just that area.
It had no problem rendering colors, just bright white. Like a light bulb, sky, snow things like that in any sort of media, pics, videos or apps. I used the screen overlay in the developers option to show the areas that have problems with rendering and sure enough the areas I mentioned before show up with an overlay of red to show that those parts of the screen do indeed have problems.
I don't know how this problem passed quality control. Maybe because they where so backed up with orders, they wanted to get them out asap. I dont know, but now im out a phone for at least a week maybe more.
thankfully they paid for shipping both ways. lets just hope they dont send my phone back saying there is nothing wrong with it. Just thought I'd share my story in case anyone else had the same problem. Thanxs.

I've seen this problem on 3 MotoGs'. The lower left corner brightness can be slightly fixed by unscrewing a little the corresponding screw inside the case. Apparently not all people notice this. And another problem, the earspeaker is buzzing on high volume when the other party is talking, to a certain degree, on all units I've checked.

The phenomenon of death often arise during use, due to component quality has decreased over time. In theory, could not overcome, or limit the phenomenon of dead spots appear on the screen. However, in many cases you can restore the dead center for a massage by screen. How do fairly simple, you need to remove the cover, protective glass screen that can be exposed directly to the screen. Now, remember the dead pixel position, then turn off the phone. Use your fingers lightly rubbing the area dead center, then press and hold the power on the phone. Wait for the screen to light up and slowly drop your finger off the screen. Make a couple of times so constantly, that pixel can be recovered.

This is the same problem I have. I've returned one unit back to the seller and now I have this on the new one they've sent as a replacement. As if some shade of white has a problem and then turns into yellow. Also some icons (e.g blue google icon) display a green line over them (blue and yellow mix?) i You will notice this the best when there is a lot of black color on the display (e.g. applications menu). Try swiping the application menu pages slowly and see how this yellowness comes and goes. I'm giving up on Moto G because of this.
Just send that one back as well. Don't blame the phone as a whole because you got unlucky twice. My friend had to send his back too and they just gave him a new one.

I'm not blaming the phone. I still think it's a great deal. But two times is enough for me to realize that less money means less quality. They obviously didn't reduce the price by kicking out the charger and the earphones.

That's fair enough. I still disagree but I see your point.
(I haven't had issues of any kind with my device, so for me it's just been a super great deal.)

I had the same problem with my first device, but so far so good on the second one.
In india they are shipping it with charger nd headphones...makes you wonder hmm
So I found out that my Moto G had the same issue. I didn't do anything about it, I thought it was a software bug. But when the same bug was on CM, I realized it's my device. It got pretty frustrating to see all these yellow spots on perfectly white displays. The good news is that I managed to fix it.
In case anyone else has this same problem, I recommend that you send it back if possible. If not, here's a solution that worked for me
1. Install this : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.haxor
2. Set it to 80%
There will be absolutely no more of these annoying yellow patches anymore. I guarantee it.
I, too, have seen this issue. In the brightest highlights of white, yellow replaces white. My best guess is that this is a sign of a failing GPU or video memory. It is either a hardware issue or a very low-level software issue. It is definitely not the normal behavior for the Moto G. The workaround by Vedarshi will allow you not to see the yellow, but also lowers the maximum brightness available to you, so it is not a true solution. For those who have seen this problem, has it always been on receipt of the devices or has this shown up over time for anyone?
It's been there from day 1. I personally do not feel that my screen looks dim. It is still readable, even in sunlight.
Me too have the same prob.

Hello guys , i too have to the same issue, right from the 1st day. today i received the fone and heres the stuff. The phone has some problem with the shades of white. and it appears Yellow while swiping. heres some screen shots of my Moto G.
Have a look at some of the White Pics with the yellow color effect. !!
I'm sorry but, why complain on here? Send it back to your retailer. They have to either offer to repair..( iwouldnt personally go for a repair job with screens cause it can be 10000 things causing it and replacing the screen and digilizer might not work) or replace...
I Have similar issue
With any white or brightly coloured aspect of the screen, I always see blue lines go from the brightly coloured shape and up to the top of the screen if I have my keyboard open for example (android lollipop or google keyboard with material light skin) it would leave one big line up the screen giving it a blueish haze, the for a clock on my homescreen, there are blue lines that come off the top to the top of the screen. This also occurs in the boot animation, the whole screen is left with a blue haze. Maybe this is something to do with Motorola making a budget device and so they give it a display that is easily damaged by its own brightness? Maybe? I don't know. Are there any known fixes for this?
Thanks

That's all great getting a replacement unit but this seems to be a very common issue, therefore, there is a high chance that the new one will have the same issue. Also, everyone is posting here because we wish to know how widespread the issue is, which is now apparant and if anyone knows of a reason or potential fix for the issue. Hope that cleared things up for you
Howdy folks, it seems the new Moto Edge 5G is exhibiting the same issues as seen on the Moto Edge+ since they share the same screen hardware. These issues are popping up usually within a few days of ownership and are starting to flood the moto support forums. Since we're an amazing group of members here at XDA, I figured I'd try to nail down some common ground and create a thread to discuss.
If your screen is exhibiting one of the following issues, please reply to the thread with the symptoms, the manufacturer birth-date (on bottom of phone's box), and a photo if possible. Please also share how long the phone was used before symptoms appeared, and whether it had been after a prolonged use period like all day gaming, or just poof it happened.
My Moto Edge 5G is exhibiting the purple splotches around the edges of the screen as well as the green tint.
Manufacturer Birthday: 07/09/2020
Appeared after 4th day of ownership, after long day of sporadic use.
I have a green haze right around the edges and I can't tell if that is apart of an edged screen. Will continue to monitor it.
If it's like the Edge plus and they basically share the same screen I doubt it will get better and will likely need a replacement phone. They did push a software update to the Edge plus that supposedly helped some phones if it hadn't started yet or was very early in the process.
As a person who is in the market for a new device due to a failing battery in my HTC 10, what would the general consensus be on buying and Edge right now? If it matters, I'd buy from the big yellow tag place since they have it in stock and are close. And then if the device has to be returned as well...
Wish they made the G Stylus with 5G

At the $500 price point it was a great deal, at its current $700 price point... I'd go elsewhere. Especially with the widespread screen problems, just look at the reviews on the yellow tag store.
Here's a great photo of the green symptoms side by side. Left is the old one, right is the new one. Pretty significant.

Are you trying to talk me back into getting one now?
*sigh* this is a case where you want something to work out so bad, you try to find excuses to ignore facts. and the $700+ price tag.
it just looks gorgeous.

There's no proof the new one won't start it in a few days. if you want to spin the wheel of chance, go for it. But at $700 I think there's better options out there. OnePlus Nord, Pixel 4a 5G.
Haven't experienced any screen problems, I purchased my device unlocked for $349.99, which is amazing for a 5G device
I will add my $0.02 to this and say I believe it is an LED issue. LEDs might not be getting the right voltage at low levels. Try with an all-white photo. lower your brightness. I bet you could not tell. Try with any other color and you will probably not tell. It is most notable with a super dark grey picture. The kind of dark grey that has a hint of green in it already. Turn the brightness all the way down, then up to about 15-20 percent. You should be able to see it then. I think it is an LED voltage control issue. Software update that was mentioned by one of you up above would make sense to me. Maybe I might just be imagining things or mine is just different than every one elses. The way mine started was at the top of the screen showed it lightly, then it got a bit worse. It has stayed since then. I bought this on the 2nd of August, received it on the 4th. Screen started on the 10th. Today the 16th has not had a change since I believe the 13th, if I remember correctly. It is rooted with Magisk and EdXposed. I might make a return/repair request tomorrow.
So I'm at 4 days with my replacement Edge and it's working correctly so far.
#3 unit
Another replacement unit.
Finger crossed
you really scare me with your screen problems. For the moment (5 days) I have no problem with my Edge (purchase in France) but what scares me is that it does not happen immediately and I do not have a purchase invoice (gift) .... I hope I have no problem soon: /
I really hesitate to sell it quickly so as not to have a problem ....
I have a very Little problema when I'm on dark grey screen with 2 or 3 % of brightness in 90hz mode... if I try to use 60hz mode the display is absolutely perfect..
Ok i have green tint...only at low brightness i have it...i'm si dissapointed....
I don't know what the HELL is happening
Moto Edge is not alone

They can fix it by letting us adjust screen hues , like how Samsung has , so we can calibrate it
Yep, just noticed it today. Took awhile (bout 3weeks). I've been in dark mode, and my wallpaper's of blackness, didn't notice. It's severely getting worse, quickly. Did anyone notice, after the September update? Time to contact best buy.
Mine started out pretty minor, but has been getting progressively worse over the last few weeks. Initially seemed heat related as I only noticed it while using Google Maps in navigation mode. IT would start out as slight dark ghosting of the screen image on the right side of the screen and would progressively creep to the left side. Mostly it's a darkening of the correct image by ghost image of higher up, in particular it's seen as a dark circle where the front camera is. If the part of the image being ghosted is a strong color it will be ghosted in green or purple. As the screen is scrolled the ghosted images move as well. It's since gotten to the point normal usages more then 10-15 mins cause the issue. If I use the camera too long in the heat or sun then the lower part of the screen will go white and the touch digitizer stops working. Attached is a photo taken while the screen was 2/3s white with my company iPhone.
The warranty replacement arrives tomorrow. I just ran the most recent update QPD30.114-23-2 installed claiming fixes for screen issues, but still saw the ghosting after the reboot.
