Issue with Display. Are these dead pixels ? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Everyone,
I am facing this issue sometimes. The display becomes as below (you can see in the screenshot attached). I am on stock ROM and stock Kernel. Have anyone faced the similar issue? Is it a hardware issue ?

It's a hardware issue if YOU can see it but it isn't visible in screenshots.
In this case, as it is visible with a screenshot, it's a software bug. Nothing major here, just some random artifacts.

This is known as screen tearing effect and i am assuminh you are on 5.0 lollipop. This issue was mainly seen in 5.0 .. Update to latest 5.1 ..

[Q] Changing Proximity Sensor settings

Dear all,
I am suffering from the following bug.
bit.ly/1vF0MDS
Have tried both CM 11 and CM 11S. I think if I can change the sensor settings, may be situation would improve. Any ideas how to do the same ?

I have face the same scenario almost every time. I have tried different things but no luck. Although, I have noticed that after finishing a call, if I pull the phone away from my ear vertically then the notification shade won't come down (success rate is about 60-70%). I added my vote for the bug resolution on jira.
Its kind of irritating and I guess playing with proximity sensor will help things. Have been searching on how to do the same without luck.

[Q] Pixelated flashing lines on display screen

I've been having screen/display issues (not the yellow hue and separate of the touch screen sensitivity problems). Every now and again, I get flashing, pixilated horizontal lines. I don't see any dead pixels and when it's not blipping the screen seems to display flawlessly, so I'm not sure if it's a software issue or if the hardware is failing. Also it's not isolated to one particular area, it jumps around. Anyone have this problem? Any fixes? I haven't been able to find anything on it. PLEASE HELP. Below is a video of the problem.

Are you completely stock? Any custom kernel? Any rom?
Usually it's a kernel issue - tearing, but it's only present on custom kernels (never came across on the stock cm11 kernel). You might wanna try a different kernel though, if you're comfortable with that.
I have the same issue on my stock rom with stock kernel. the only thing i have changed was the developer options. i changed the screen animation time.

Was it working before those changes?

Perhaps this might help?

I had exact same issue during recording a video yesterday night !! I am latest mahdi and latest franco...
Funny thing is it went away once i exited the camera... what rom and kernel are u using ?
I've been having the same issue too. I don't have a solution for you, though. I haven't been able to find much about it.
Same issue here, stock all the way, only been since latest update. The update didn't flash properly, it gave an error stating it couldn't be located but i went through the files and it was there and then upgraded OK
I had the same problem. Selecting "Force GPU Rendering" in developer options cured it.
i have stock everything. i'm not rooted.
a reboot fixes the problem temporarily. shoot, all the issues i've ran into with this phone thus far (like the GPS not locking on) is fixed by a reboot. i know a reboot is good to do every now-and-again regardless, but having to do it constantly to fix issues is the sign of a failing device and is very annoying; it shouldn't be something you have to do with a brand new device.
i am facing this too randomly. Am on rooted 38R with Franco kernel. Rebooting is a temp cure but it will frustrating to keep doing it.
This happened to me after getting 38R. Fortunately it hasn't been back since a hard reboot. It would show up on Youtube & when dragging down the notifications area.
I had this today on PAC ROM. When I unlock phone and lock ring animation dots flash up made lines come across screen not sure what it was or why. Just rebooted phone. Back to normal. But trying out vanir later tonight try something abit different.
Also experiencing this here.
Stock ROM, clean 38R install.
Stock kernel.
Rooted, with a few xposed modules.
Started a day or two ago. Haven't found a way to recreate it. When it does happen, a reboot remedies it, but only temporarily.
I will attempt to screenrec it the next time.
I find it interesting that I only see mentions of this starting recently.
Same problem for me since the last update. Restarting the Phone solves the problem for some times. Maybe a driver issue?
Glad to see that it is not a hardware issue.
Same here
Same here, mahdi-2.8-bacon-20141001 ROM, enabled "Force GPU rendering" in Developer options, let's see if this comes back!
I have the same problem on latest cm nightly with stock kernel. And dev options works sometimes but it resets on reboot and my phone reboots randomly all the time. I'm starting to hate this device

I also have the same issue on Stock 38R update + franco kernel r27
It happens after the latest kernel update, before I never had this lines.
Lucky for me I don't have any reboots now but I fear that will come to pass as well.
Got the same problem with Mahdi Rom 2.8 - 20141016
Will be solved in Franco Kernel r28,he just confirmed this on his kernel thread.

same issue here. i have to reboot. its happened on stock and AK kernel. will try enabling force gpu rendering and see if it comes back

[Q] Proximity & Light Sensor Not Working In 5.0 Factory Update

Hey Everyone,
I have installed factory image of 5.0 on my Nexus & since then I am facing the issue. My screen doesn't go off during calls & light sensor is also not working; Auto Brightness is also not working. I tried pulling back to 4.4 through which I made sure my hardware is working fine. It wasn't working in 5.0 Lollipop.
Has anybody else faced the same issue & does anyone know how to fix it?
Have attached the screenshot from CPU-Z.

Any fix?

Zooming in to 8x in auto mode takes the picture blurred on 6.0.1? Bug?

Hi guys, I opened this thread to ask you if you have the same issue like me, or if the camera changed in bad for 6.0.1 update. Maybe something change in good, but this annoys me.
Anyway, did you notice after the 6.0.1 update, the fact that when zooming in to maximum in auto mode the picture is not anymore sharp? For me now is blurred. I did not have this issue with 5.1.1 . I even re-flashed with 5.1.1 and I am not having this problem.
I haven't seen this issue since the beta.

Wrong background shape for some popup messages

Hi all,
after the last security update (plus some bugfix I think) to G930FXXU1DQEI sw version, brand Vodafone, I'm facing the following issues on my S7 flat:
A wrong background shape for some popups and a strange black spot on the selector , only in google now settings. Please check the attached pictures
I already tried to fix them by recovery with an hard reset without success.

Hi
Definitely odd
I would flash (odin) firmware again , use home-csc ( same CSC that is in your phone right now) so you do not loose any data
After some attempts I can say this issue happens moving the screen resolution from FHD to HD.
I flashed the rom by Odin and worked fine, at the beginning.
After the screen resolution mod the issue is still there.
Moving the resolution to FHD again and switch off/on the issue is not present.

Really odd , i would not expected
Thanks for letting us know
Hi,
I can confirm this is a bug, to be honest I don't know if it was present in the previous build. I tried to reproduce on another S7 (brand tim) and it is present.
Basically the steps to reproduce this issue are:
Change the screen resolution to HD and restart the phone. Uninstall an app and check the text box shape.
Probably you will find other problem in google now search bar or settings
To fix this issue move from HD to FHD.
