Okay, Guys I had used an Exynos S7 Edge about 6 months back and had sold it off. In that I had used a kernel with Colour Control via Synapse. Is there any kernel with same support here?
This is the heaviest hardcore ghost touch i ever had. It doesen't makes a difference which ROM i took
See my vid here and discuss with other members. This device sucks for me. :crying:

that is why NEVER AGAIN IN MY WHOLE LIFE I will buy another motorola cell phone, there is no clarification from the motorola about what exactly causes this problem, but the number of affected devices is very high, I gave up trying to solve the problem problem, I'm going to buy another device and put my Moto G4 in the trash, all of my family and my friends who bought a G4, are having this problem, be loading / using usb / with brightness above the middle, everyone I know sent the device to the guarantee, but unfortunately Brazil is a wasteland, and motorola refused to give back the amount paid in most of the cases I followed.
While google was the owner of the motorola, I could have all the devices without problem, after it was sold, it became a piece of ****

You do know that the issue can be solved with kernel adiutor or live display right?

You can set the RGB values to 160 using kernel adiutor. Just go to the app, swipe towards right, select screen and set RGB values to 160 each.
Or you can go to settings, live display, and set click on color calibration and set RGB values to 85% each. This can be done if u are using a Lineage OS based ROM.

Something related to dead pixels......check on YouTube, there are a lot of videos explaining ghost touch.

You had ghost touch while charging?
I am on stock so I did it through kernel adiutor.
I charge with normal charger, so no ghost touch. If u use turbo charger, temperature of phone increases, affecting the pixels and causing ghost touch.
Can you try stock with latest February security path 14-15
It fixed ghost touch on my g4 plus XT1644 Version
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76248088&postcount=75
My theory on ghost touch is faulty internal grounding. There are some chargers that amplify this, leading to excessive ghost touch while charging, while some to work fine.
My original turbo charger worked fine till it went dead, replacement turbo chargers all gave me ghost touch, as did an Asus and xaomi charger. If you are in India, you could try geekcases Qualcomm certified QC 3.0 chargers. That's what I'm using now and no ghost touch (for me at least). It also charges the phone real quick.
I must be one of the lucky ones. I have never had ghost touch problems with my phone. (XT1625) But others with the same phone have experienced the problem. Some have solved the issue by upgrading to NPJS25.93-14-15, even though it is the wrong version for the XT1625. When flashing the correct version, (NPJS25.93.93-14.7-5) they have the issue. But that is also the version I am currently running and I do not see it.
I don't understand this, but since it is not an issue for me I guess it is moot.

Ghost touch is what the OP talks about. Ghost screen or screen retention is what YOU are taking about. Your fix applies only to screen retention.

Sorry I thought you knew. It's a hardware bug affecting the G4. You unlock the phone and it acts like you a pressing 10 fingers on it. Lock and unlock and it behaves normal... until the next unlocking. It's pretty annoying. Setting the brightness under 50% reduces the chance of happening but doesn't completely fix the problem. Set your brightness to 100% and your phone is pretty much useless.
I love my new OP 6 phone, except one thing - PWM driven display below some brightness setting. Most things I read on the subject came from this wonderfull post (and kernel), which deals with the same thing on Samsung Galaxy. Is there any way we could achieve similar effect on our phones by some kernel / system tweaks? I would much rather deal with mura effects than eye strain, or at least drop the PWM - driven portion of the scale way down. I was trying to get started, poke around a little for backlight drivers and kernel source code, but I have little to none kernel development experience and knowledge so I got lost pretty quickly and do not know if it is even possible on Qualcomm platform.
Since I knew there is an app called Oled Saver on Google Play store, it prevents your brightness lower than certain value which may trigger the Flickering
Except that, the Mi 9 is rumored to get a DC Dimming for all the time update, most possibly tinkered with Its kernel, for our old obsoleted device, we could all depend on that OLED Saver App and tolerate the brighter display at night in order to prevent flickering
While DC dimming for all the time, is achieved more and more, hopefully we might see more new phones shipped with Officially DC dimming kernel, thus its Custom ROMs and users could all be able to utilize this flipper switch to save our eye from display flickering
Smurf Kernel has an option called 'Flicker free) in it's config file which should handle this problem
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/4-9-109-smurfkernel-1-0-0-t3805948
It's also overall a very good kernel, I use it since quite a time now

I second this, Smurf kernel actually implements the code from the kernel linked in the OP, if i'm not mistaken. Already read this from the Smurf thread.
And agreed, the kernel is very good !
Edit : Wait, i didn't see the OP date, why has this been dug up ?

So i read your post and overall i figured out that you have screen flickering issue when on low brightness. I had the same issue and additionally, it flickered alot when restarting/locking/unlocking the phone. I took mine to service centre and they said it's a hardware issue and replaced my display. No issues till now after that. This issue was also brought up in the oneplus community and even the bug hunters contacted me. At the end, the conclusion came as hardware issue.
Maybe yours is the same.

Well, seems like OnePlus guys read XDA Forums sometimes haha !

Just got my phantom black, 12/256 exynos version delivered today, been using it since this morning and I noticed that on mobile data I have little to no connection even though the 5g icon is stable in the Taskbar, as soon as I connect to wifi everything runs normally. I also had the purple glitch when touching the fingerprint sensor but solved it by disabling the dinamic animated lock screen wallpaper and putting in a normal, static one.
Another issue is that the phone locks itself (goes to lock screen) while browsing the apps (just like double tapping on home screen) but not while using any app.
I hope this is just firmware issue since they are shipping all the phones with the same firmware region based but maybe they still need feedback from some carriers (hence the mobile data issue) and also the display glitches I believe are nothing that a firmware update wouldn't fix.
P. S. : in these first few hours I didn't get at 1 hz refresh rate

With my xiaomi 12 pro if the screen brightness is dim it doesn't go to its lowest refresh rate. Increase the screen brightness and see if it goes to 1 hertz
I am having exactly all the same problems as OP with my 12/512 Exynos version. Now wondering if it is hardware or software issue with the screen glitching when using the fingerprint sensor. The glitch only occurs when using 3088x1440 wqhd+ resolution and dynamic animated lock screen. Position of the screen interference is always the same but can differ in size.

I envy those who received their device already, over here they will be delivered next Friday so we have to wait a bit longer. However I don't envy the issues you guys are having, fingers crossed I don't have to return the device shortly after I get it in my hands.

That’s most definitely in need of a screen replacement. That’sa hardware failure. I would think one could get that fixed for free

What's interesting is that the guy reported the problem only when using WQHD+ on youtube. When used in say gallery the problem was not there.
I've found this guy's post with details on our national samsung group

Could this also be a YouTube thing also? Like how Netflix has to certify certain devices in order to use HDR content. Maybe these new 2.0 panels need to have apps updated to work with them.

They forgot to mention one thing. The adaptive refresh rate only works, if your brightness is above 8% or ambient light sensor reads more than 40 lux.
So if you are some like me, with low brightness and low ambient light, get ready for your battery to dissappear as it will be stuck at 120Hz...
on some forums it is mentioned that on Vivis setting for display, the problem does not occur anymore; can you confirm?
anyway, the fact that these artefacts are not displayed when in FHD setting, shows that it is not a display problem, but a software or GPU
I've posted this in a separate thread. I don't think my issue is linked to the screen issues described here. I have a flashing green pixel. Seems like hardware. See the pics.
I have a mountain of problems too, with S22 Ultra black 12/256.
I've got:
Overheating and rebooting in my pocket when doing nothing
Random hanging whilst scrolling down a long list
Intermittent flashing green dots (I think four) across the screen
Horrendous battery life (had it for only 48 hours, but still)
S-Pen sometimes doesn't fire the Air Actions menu when removed (or basically just doesn't notice it's been removed?)
And not really a problem, but after 4 generations it still can't record HDR and 60 frames per second, when in 4k.
This is a huge disappointment, and the fastest tech return ever from me.

Mine gets delivered today. and if I have a green pixel like that on mine it is going back so fast.
This is my first time using a pixel experience rom infact it's also my first time using any Android 12 rom and it's also my first time using an AOSP based rom, so please bare with me if I look absolutely stupid (i already apologize for that)
Just flashed the unofficial pixel experience plus on my poco X4 pro
here are some stuff i like and don't like about the rom
I flashed it using adb sideload with lineage unoffical recovery for the device
Before anyone asks yes it also works for the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (Since when did naming phones become similiar to writing a dictionary?)
This build of pixel experience plus uses the perf kernel which is somewhat okay for performance
Rooting - Rooting a pixel experience rom or any GSI rom is harder than rooting Miui roms but i guess for you guys it's not that hard...
Performance - I'm sorry but for some reason I could not get Antutu Bench Mark to run on the device with pixel experience installed
Everytime I tried to install the Antutu benchmark 3d apk it would give me an apk parsing error I've tried rebooting several times but cannot find a solution yet
Miui Eu used to give me around 360k - 390k
Though I could not get Antutu Benchmark to run on the device i can definitely feel it being much smoother and by using an fps meter in high demanding games such as cod mobile i can see a difference in fps
For some reason no fps unlocker could unlock 120 fps for cod mobile on miui but somehow it works on the pixel experience plus
Also with pixel experience plus you can set CPU Freq and GPU Freq to max without it reverting back just like Miui (I do not recommend doing this as it is not good for the processor)
UI - This is obvious but Pixel Experience Plus is much much better, the animations are smooth the full screen gestures have no problems
Battery Backup - Yeah unfortunately it's worser than Miui but not by a crazy margin
Fast Charging - This is where pixel experience plus lags behind the fast charging isn't as fast as it was on Miui
Touch Issues - This is a very rare occurance but there are ghost touches occuring especially when the phone is left in idle state with screen on for some time
Sound Quality - Noticeably worser than Miui sadly...
Bloatware - very few like chrome (some people like chrome being installed though but i personally use brave browser) but you can easily remove it by the several methods u can find on the forum or through YouTube
Camera - it comes installed with Gcam Go and the photo quality is good but you should probably use Gcam itself
Proximity Sensor - Broken, phone screen stays on during calls
Bluetooth calling: Broken, causes phone to crash
Data/Wifi Connectivity - I can feel my wifi being a little bit slower on this device compared to my other but it could just be a me thing
SafetyNet - Passes by default
Overall - Great if you don't like heavy customisations, raw performance, a little bit slower charging (which is actually good for your battery) and material you theming
What do I miss from Miui?
Game Turbo - Although Pixel Experience Plus has a game mode inbuilt it's no way as good as Miui Game Turbo
Floating Windows - I guess there is no beating Miui when it comes to Floating Windows...
Would appreciate if anyone knows any kind of fixes to my problems mentioned above...

Oh yeah was unable to test those but I'm gonna add them thanks
How is the camera resolution in gcam /pixel expirience ? In miui I never get more then 12mp, never the 108mp like with the original cam
I'm using Pixel Experience 13, and the camera takes 12.0MP 3000x4000 resolution.
Is the proximity sensor still broken even now in 2023?
@BR4UTAL do you plan any further releases, as the official ROM has still no updates yet? I think many of us users of this phone are desperate for a stable release plan. Maybe you can connect to the official maintainer and share your work via the PE offical channels.
For now great work so far....
