Screen Burn Issue [Potential Fix] [Moto G4 Plus] - Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

Over the couple of months, many Moto G4 Plus owners have been complaining about the screen burn issue.
Well there wasn't a fix for this through software except Blue Light Filter (which didn't work for me), and while trying for the fix, I feel I have found one.
Prerequisites:
1. Android Nougat (7.0) (I am running on the stock NPJ25.93-14 i.e the 1st December 2016 Security Patch)
2. System UI Tuner enabled.
No Root Needed.
My device is the Indian variant XT1643 i.e 2GB RAM variant.
For those who are on Android Marshmallow CM based Custom ROM, you can try using the live display and setting the value nearby 3000~3500K (Although I am not sure if this would work since I haven't tried it yet).
Its the Night Mode!
1. Go download the "Night Mode Enabler" app from the Play Store --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.michaelevans.nightmodeenabler&hl=en
2. Open it and click on "Enable Night Mode".
3. It will take you to System UI Tuner where you can toggle night mode on/off.
4. Go to the quick settings edit option, and you will see a new tile - "Night Mode".
Toggle on the night mode and see the effect after some time (it started to show effect as soon as I enabled it and fixed the issue within 20 minutes for me).
[Q]. What will happen if I toggle off night mode?
[A]. The Screen burn will occur once again.
You need to have the Night Mode to be always on in order to get rid of that Screen Burn issue.
I know that many might not like the color temperature of Night Mode, so if you have a CM based ROM, you can edit the temperature with "Live Display" option.
Well, try it out and lets see if it works or not!

First of all, thank you for sharing this.
But your "fix" is just a workaround and not a proper fix for our broken displays.
The only real fix is to replace the display.

Umm, I guess you are right. I have changed the title now.

Even screen replacement is not a permanent solution. I have replaced display and within 3 weeks issue reoccurred

It fixed the issue
The night mode enabler has fixed the issue for now. But the screen is of some weird color(especially white background).
Anyways, Its good to see my phone screen without the screen burn issue after such a long time.
Thanks

RGB calibration is the best fix for screen burn in !
unfortunately if u r on stock rom ,Then you have to root ur device .

Mi4C "backlight flickering"

Hi guys,
First sorry for my english, im french..xD
I have some "backlight flickering" problem on my MI4C.
There is quick varitions of backlight intensity at random times.
I had this problem with MIUI so i flashed cm-12.1-20151016, and more problems.
But i updated to CM12.1 cm-12.1-20151112-UNOFFICIAL-libra and the problem is back.
Do you have a solution ??
Thanks.
I noticed that suddenly the screen will get very bright, quite annoying.

Ty for you answer, but it's not just the brightness who change but more the backlight doing like flashes.
I found a youtube video with similar problem.
But i cant post link.
You can find it on youtube typing :Sony Xperia Z1 backlight flickering.

I watched the Video, but i have never seen this in my Mi4c.
https://youtu.be/uaGPgP_mmcQ
In miui the problem should be already fixed in 5.11.5, at least this is in the changelog.
Wow it is weird. I don't have that either (nor miui nor cm)
Yes i saw this for miui but i didnt tried, i changed for CM12.1 just before.
But i didn't saw the problem on the first CM build.
It's strange.
It happened to me twice. 5.11.5 the problem still continues. Now I use 5.11.12 not yet any flickering:fingers-crossed:
What if you change the level of adaptive display ? It is like you are on the edge between two different states and the phone doesn't know which one to choose.

I tried with low or high level of brightness and with adaptativ display on and off.
Same.
Hi everybody,
It happened again today so i tried differents things:
-Disabled Double Tap 2 Wake (1 of the new feature of the cm update): useless
-Turn ON the option to Disable HW Overlays (I saw on internet that can solve some screen flickering problems): wait and see
there is a risk ??
-I enabled performance mod on battery settings:
Is it good or not ?
Is it useless if im already using kernel adiutor set in on demand ??
Thanks.
I had a similiar problem with my Mi4 and managed to solve the problem by flashing this kernel after flashing CM: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24686681827314188
Little downside is; the kernel has a double-tap-to-wake-feature, which gives me some random unlocks in my pocket.

Latest update problem with screen auto light adjustment

We were all waiting for the new update to come but Once more Samsung has manage to destroy some things
One of them is screen auto light adjustment... At least at Exynos version
Before the update you could just adjust the bar wherever you like and then with one off - on to auto switch you have return to full auto light adjustment...
Now this is impossible
With auto on if you move the bar this setting is saved like the ideal auto lighting condition and stays that way...that means that auto lighting is working good but from the base of your previous adjustment and not full stock auto.. If you deactivate and activate again the auto switch nothing happens because of the previous "saved condition"
So that means that you can't go back to full stock auto lighting conditions...
That's to bad and it has to be really fast a new update to fix this issue...

That's actually how it works on stock Android.
I have found another disappointment change... YouTube app... The end of side to side full screen video play...if you choose to cut video for full screen it will only full up and down sides but unfortunately will leave huge black bazels to left and right (landscape view) to this beautiful bazzelless device... This is too disappointed...
UPDATE
After clean installation of YouTube app everything works OK again...
It's strange because before the clean installation I had exactly the same version with the new one with totally different interface (it was the same as my Xperia z4 tablet)
Same issue, also Exynos variant, with auto brightness and YouTube app here in Romania after the same updated. Reinstalling the YouTube app will help but only for a couple of minutes, because after that some kind of update is coming via the app it self and the full screen mode is messed up again.
Regarding Auto brightness: For me, the new behavior is the one I want and expect. I hope, it stays that way.
I have this same problem!
Poland, Exynos.

I have found a solution with YouTube app...if you don't sing in to your acount then you will never have full screen problem again...
I think that has something to do with the same version of YouTube to second devices like tablet... Because when I'm singed with both devices (s8+ & Xperia z4 tablet) I m always having problems with full screen faction... If I say unsigned then it works as it should be.... Strange things....
auto brightness problem
Same problem here too. I'm from Bulgaria, Exynos version. Any solutions ?

Missing tweaks

Hello Everyone,
I'm fresh owner (bouth a week ago) of Honor 9 and I'm very happy with the choise I've made. The phone is incredible fast (comparing from my previous Galaxy S6) and EMUI is well optimised. But, ehm let's complain a bit . I'm courious what kind of feature you're missing on your Honor 9 phone/EMUI. For me the complaining list would look like:
- Missing ability to control notification light - different freq. and color for different apps
- Gesture for home button - there would be nice if "scroll up/down" would trigger to enroll notification arean
- Dim clock as screensaver while charging (very usefull as I'm charging my phone while sleeping, and so could be use as night clock)
- Knock Knock feature on locked phone - to see notification when phone is on the table (I know there is notification LED for it)
Ok that's my complaining list. If you have any idea to overcome such a limitation feel free to suggest. Also don't hesitate to complain a bit as well

I don't think there is a way to over come your complaints without rooting your device. Even rooting your device won't allow you to use the features you want on the home button.

Hi iceepyon,
yes I believe you're right, there the missing feature about home button won't be most probably overcome without ROOTing the device and use custome KERNEL. To by honest with you I'd rather to not use the feature as some application I'm using won't run on ROOTed phones (based on official statements).
Hovewer I believe some of missing feature could be added by some app?Any recommendation?

- most phones nowadays don't have notification light. Probably because the phone spend most of its time in our hands
- I agree with this one. The fingerprint scanner supports swiping gesture
- honor 9 uses ips lcd screen, even if its dimmed, the whole screen still light up. This will heavily drain the battery
- you can use wave on proximity sensor app to turn the screen on

@pijes,
1. Maybe most of the phones doesn't have notification LED (wouldn't be so sure about this one), but Honor 9 does, so ability to control it would be usefull
2. Yeah would be nice, but dunno if if is possible withou kernel upgrading
3. Yes, could be battery dainer, but I'm speaking about situation when the phone is charging actually
4. Can you explain a bit deeper the statement, about to using "waze on proximity sensor app"?
Thx

3. Charging and discharging simultaneously can be harmful to the battery health
4. There are a few apps out there that try to simulate the wake screen using gestures and usually they implement it by making use of the proximity sensor. AcDisplay, WaveUp and Glance Plus are among them

Well, there is honestly nothing much which can be done if you want to add the knock on wake feature. Same can be said of the notification LED as those are built into the device's official stock OS. The only thing you can do is install a 3rd party OS and hope that it has some of the features you want. However be warned that most if not all 3rd party OSes do not have the best post image processing software so your pictures won't turn out as good as if you have taken them using the stock OS that came with your device.
@iceepyon, yes I can imagine that most 3rd party OS won't have such a camera software optimalization. Btw, I've read some post about how to enable 3rd party clock as screensaver. I can't understand why Honor/Huawei disabled this feature, which is present in stcok android.

Probably due to security issues. As Huawei has been focusing quite allot on making and keeping their devices secure.
@iceepyon, I really don't know how "clock" screensaver would expose the security more than "image slideshow" screensaver

That is certainly true of rooting or installing custom OSes onto your mobile device. As there are so many things which can go wrong. However current versions of android are now at a point where unless you need to have your device rooted for work purposes. There really isn't a point for the average user to do so.

Android Oreo Developer Preview Image Released!

This preview of the Oreo build is updated with the March 2018 security patches. It is Android Oreo, version 8.1. If you want to use this, keep in mind that this is a development preview! It is not the final release. There are also a few things to note about using it.
It requires you to be bootloader unlocked (unlocking wipes your phone)
This update will wipe your phone even if you're already unlocked
You will not get any OTAs while on this build
VoLTE and WiFi Calling might not work
No CTS, so Android Pay/Pokemon Go may not work
May be some undocumented bugs
If you're fine with all of that, then the download link can be found on Razer's developer page about the update.
If you want to go back to the stock Nougat images, just follow the instructions here.

Look up a video of Oreo on a Pixel. It looks exactly the same.
No default white theme like normal Oreo same default theme as nougat.
Screen now has a colour option which can be set to show more vibrant colours.
Double tap to sleep (only on lockscreen)
Speakers seem louder than before.
And all the normal Oreo stuff
Also Pokémon go does work.

Color options and more power for the speakers are both great news. Much excited.
I'm tinkering with GSIs and I've realised you can go into Download Mode by tapping the Power button several times as soon as the Razer logo pops up (before the orange 'tampered' message appears).
In case that helps someone ^

Anyone having Bluetooth mic issues on this preview?
Just got a new BT headset with a built in mic and it ain't working. Just thought I'd check in here before returning it.
I went back to Nougat but did anyone else notice the screen colours go between vibrant and normal all the time? noticed it on the lockscreen, Keyboard and quick toggles but it only seemed to happen with colourful stuff. Default Razer wallpaper, Coloured keyboard and theme applied etc
Yes @Roxas598 I did notice the colors change from vibrant to normal a lot. And I've been watching Netflix on it lately as well and have been watching the second season of a series of unfortunate events and the whole show has been looking darker than it should, making it hard to watch even with brightness all the way up.

I already reported the issue but wanted to make sure it wasn't just me. Thanks!
My Fitbit is not being recognised at all, and my bluetooth mic on my new headphones doesn't work. So it looks like there are some issues with Bluetooth which I'll revert to stock to resolve. Not bad so far, but obviously being close to stock means it doesn't feel much different to 7.1, certainly not enough that you get that excited buzz we once got back when Android revisions were massively different.

POCO F1 Screen Retention/Ghosting Image on custom ROM/Kernel [FIX]

Issue:
1.Some users (like me) must have faced issue of screen ghosting or retention in which if the device is used at max brightness, they see a ghosted image on sides of their phone. (Especially visible when switching from a light theme to dark, for eg, going in chrome incognito mode you will see it)
2.Usually it happens after flashing a custom ROM or kernel.
Fix:
Method 1:
1. In case if its a custom ROM, go to Settings > Display > LiveDisplay
2. Set the Color Profile to ‘Standard'.
3. Go to color calibration setting and set the following values:
Red at 90%
Green at 90%
Blue at 90%.
4. Keep the display screen of for some time (15 min) and boom! Issue solved.
[Note: Max brightness may feel a little less than before but its still better, you will get used to it]
Method 2:
1.In case you have a custom kernel, you can refer to other threads or manually set the values of Red, Green and Blue by yourself by using a ‘Kernel Manager App'.
Just keep it at minimum than its original values.
Conclusion:
This issue is NOT a hardware issue, its a software issue that can be fixed by implementation of any following methods.
Source:
I got through some other threads of Redmi having same issue. Just the difference is in the settings I used, you can customize it as per your own will BUT make sure that the ghosting does not appear by use of that setting. If successful, you may replay
What are you talking about??
This issue is not available in Pixel exp plus pie, is this a Stock rom issue??
but i didn't experience it for whatever hours i was on stock Miui.
It is not software issue, but the low hardware quality I presume

It is not the case that every user will face it. In case if it occurs, you may make use of these procedures.
Mostly, if you use max brightness and switch suddenly to dark grey, you can notice it (in custom ROMs / custom kernel ).

No it is a software issue. I am not talking about the yellow spot issue (that is hardware issue)
This one is ghosting or temporary burn in caused due to change in the default color calibration.
I faced it before but after trying the above settings, even at max brightness, the ghosting did not appear again. So it actually works.
Ghosting does not remain forever in LCD. So its not harmful to hardware in any way. (Just buggy)

I agree. Screen Retention or Ghosting is mostly present on other devices (I'm not talking about the Pocophone alone but on every other devices) and can be fixed via software implementations or updates. Changing color profile and/or color settings can be a solution too.

1.Some users (like me) must have faced issue of screen ghosting or retention in which if the device is used at max brightness, they see a ghosted image on sides of their phone. (Especially visible when switching from a light theme to dark, for eg, going in chrome incognito mode you will see it)
2.Usually it happens after flashing a custom ROM or kernel.
Fix:
Method 1:
1. In case if its a custom ROM, go to Settings > Display > LiveDisplay
2. Set the Color Profile to ‘Standard'.
3. Go to color calibration setting and set the following values:
Red at 90%
Green at 90%
Blue at 90%.
4. Keep the display screen of for some time (15 min) and boom! Issue solved.
[Note: Max brightness may feel a little less than before but its still better, you will get used to it]
Method 2:
1.In case you have a custom kernel, you can refer to other threads or manually set the values of Red, Green and Blue by yourself by using a ‘Kernel Manager App'.
Just keep it at minimum than its original values.
Conclusion:
This issue is NOT a hardware issue, its a software issue that can be fixed by implementation of any following methods.

I got through some other threads of Redmi having same issue. Just the difference is in the settings I used, you can customize it as per your own will BUT make sure that the ghosting does not appear by use of that setting. If successful, you may replay

I am neither using a custom ROM nor have done anything in past which can have these after effects. I am facing these issue or may be noticeable after the rollout of the MIUI11 ROM. So i contacted other who owns pocof1 , but their device don't have these issues. Then i contacted the service center and they reinstalled the MIUI11 but the problem persists.
So then i thinking of a screen replacement since i m on a warranty period so should i do that to solve this issue?.
Also u gave the settings to resolve the issue for a stock/CustomUI but wht for the MIUI , pls give the setting for them too.
pls answer all my queries!

This reply is pretty late, sorry for that.
1.You need to be rooted.
2.Download ColorChanger app from PlayStore.
3.Give root privileges.
4.Decrease the color in Custom1/Custom2/Custom3 by long tapping to these values:
R:240
G:240
B:240
S:1.00.
5.Save it (top left corner)
Con: You need to apply this every time you boot into your device.
You can upgrade to pro and enable “Activate on boot" from app setting to make this happen automatically.
I did it but it doesn't work, I'll consider change the hole panel
Can you take a look at the attached screenshot and confirm if these values are okay. Apart from RGB values, do I need to tweak anything else? Thanks in advance.
Oh I see, I got this problem, and realize I set livedisplay profile to dynamic. I thought my screen was wore out

This is a hardware problem, i tried everything and failed so i got original lcd folder replaced from the service center and now no screen retention.
I am from India itself, do you know which service center to go to? Since poco split from mi, am i in trouble or i should head to the mi service center. And my is under a warranty of 6 months and i'm in the 3rd month now....is it free or you got to pay money for the service?
Thanks in Advance.
