Dead Pixels ??

I noticed that i have some dead pixels... and when i say some.. i mean LOTS !!!!!! i took an app called "Dead Pixels" and on black screen... my screen is full of little white dots.. should i go to replace my phone ??

Are you sure it's not dust ? Dead pixels don't light up at all, they are black.
I have my Desire exchanged at warranty because I got dust under the screen.

Desire S only comes with AMOLED? I thought dead pixles only appear with SLCD

Could be stuck pixels, dead pixels are black.
Also the desire s has a S-LCD screen not a AMOLED screen.

Why not upload a picture?

i can't upload a picture cause the dots are very small... just 2 of them are bigger... the thing is that they are white on black screen and on white screen they kinda disturb the white... i tried that app with pixel fix.. and they are still there
maybe i should go at my provider with the phone and they should change it :|

hmm, i got a scratchy line too that shines in RED when the background is white...... I always thought those were dead pixels...

I also have couple of pixels that shines light blue when the screen is black, didn't know about them until I tried "Dead Pixels" app, it really doesn't bother me.

It dust guys, not dead or stuck pixels. I've exchanged mine once.
Sensation has the same problem due to unibody chasis design. I know it's stupid but what can we do...

I feel like the Desire S is the first phone I've had that doesn't have dead pixels.

Nexus Screen Issue

So the other day while looking at a picture I noticed some small red dots near my menu, I figured it wasn't a big deal but then I started to notice it some more and on black screens its red dots but on lighter screens its white dots. I've attached a picture to explain what i'm seeing. Any ideas on what this could be?

Here's a closer view of them, its really hard to notice them but there's some small red dots around the bottom screen.

stuck pixels?
given the pattern to them in a banding diagonal line, im inclined to think it might just be that. RMA

Nexus 5 screen tint issue

Hi Guys,
I have recently notice a problem with my screen.
It is a pink/purple tint in the middle of the screen, but it is only visible on dark colours, and especially on the black screen.
Do you know what can be the problem and if that is something that would qualify for RMA?

Well, try turning the screen on for 3-4 hours continuously. Give it a shot and see, if it reverts back to normal. By the way, did you ever send your nexus 5 for a repair ?

Ok, thanks. Will try that. No, I have never repaired it.

i was reading that oneplusone has a yellow tint issue which is partially solved with uv light,leaving it in the sun for a few hours.
Does it look bad under normal apps?
best to rma it, you shouldnt have to do anything as it should be free from defects

It looks the same even while booting up the phone, because the screen is black then. As mentioned before, it's only visible on dark colours, no matter what app I'm in. It's invisible on light colours or whites.
I have the screen on for the past hour but no changes yet. This is really annoying. Will try with the sunlight as well, but already have contacted Google for advice.

Screen has Yellow Tint

I bought 16gb Version in India and i found my screen to have a yellow Tint, is it natural or should i ask for replacement? Everything else is fine. Please reply quickly. Thanks.
I took a screen shot of the clock app and sent it to my old HTC desire x and the blue was perfect blue while my moto it was light and purple in colour.
And can anybody else please check their clock app and tell me if its a dark blue or purple as in my case. Will help me a lot, thanks .

Looks purple to me... See screenshot.
But I don't see a yellow tint...
Edit: Actually the screenshot looks blue to me but my clock app is definitely purple when I look directly at the phone.

The same problem here too, screen shot on laptop seems blue , but its purple when i see it on my phone.
And also i just figured that the clock app shades change depending on time, so i changed my time to your screen shot time and i compared, its blue on the laptop but purple directly.
so this is general occurrence i assume.
:crying:

i returned mine, but same issue screenshots differ in color also selfies sometime are yelowish.
what ashame for motorola release a phone with so many issues!!!

I dunno if I should replace or not now, everything else is fine. anyone else has the same problem or I can get a proper screen ?

Well, if you're finding any issues with the display you can ask for replacement. They will replace it without any questions.
Talking about the yellow tinge, I am having no such issues on my Moto G. The clock however, changes its color according to the time. Are you seeing the yellow tinge throughout your usage? If yes then get a replacement.

I did some research and I found out that in many reviews moto g has a warmer yellow color overall, and maybe I was just paranoid . the whites do seem a little yellow. I just wanted to know if others have the same issue too. thanks for your reply.

Well in that case, here is my video review. Have a look. youtu.be/b7YPJJHafJY

I have come to peace with it now it definitely is warmer in colour reproduction, but I don't want to risk getting another defective handset over this, the mobile has been great so far, with insane battery i must say. screen on time reached 5.3 hours with average to above average usage. And about 4 hours with heavy usage. Definitely a keeper. thanks for the replies mates.
can close the thread now admins. Or is there an option for me to close it myself?

Just compared my wife's Moto E to my Moto G. Both US. Ran screen test app. The G definitely has a Yellowish cast in the whites and greys. And the colors are different on the same wallpapers.

yes it definitely does have a yellow warmer tone in my phone too.

The yellowish tint is because of adaptive display. In nexus 6 you will find a pinkish tint on the screen. Some phones of motorola have this issues.
