My new Lumia 1020 has Mura Effect (showing terrible black lines in night with a grey screen)
Could you please show me that if this defect is serious and if I should request for a replacement?
Thanks!!!
Yes
Yes you should return it asap
I had to return twice, second one had so many lines it was horrible at night.
It IS a factory defect, returning should be no problem. I got lucky, they finally had yellow in stock after weeks of switching phones, so I ended up with yellow after two blacks with messed up Amoleds!
Hi.
I have a yellow spot on the display. It seems to be the same like many people had it on the HTC One X. I had it too, on the One X.
I read, it was something with some glue in the display.
Cheers
factory warranty covers it so bring it back and if its whitin 28 days of purchase, demand a new sealed box as consumer right entitles you on.
That looks like a manufacturer defect right there. Get it exchanged ASAP.
Display Issues
Forgive me, but what's wrong with These Displays These days? Or am I doing something wrong?
I've been having Trouble with spots on Displays for years.
When it came out I bought a HTC One X. After a month there appeared a yellow spot on the left edge. I brought it back, waitet for 1,5 months and then became back my device with a replaced Screen and battery.
After another month i got again a yellow line... It was always the same, at first there is a slightly yellow line on the left or right edge, after a while it gets darker and darker and turns violet/Brown.
I returned my htc one x 3 times, after the 4th attempt to repair i became the Money back.
After that i bought a HTC One X Plus. Same Story! I returned it 3 times for the same Screen issues, in the end after another year struggling I became again the Money back.
Then i bought a Xperia Z2: Believe it or not, again same pain 3 attempts to repair and then Money back.
The good Thing is, I always got the Money back. But i buy a device for using and working with it, not for having this Trouble.
In december 2014 i bought a Xperia Z3. Yesterday I noticed a yellow line on the left edge ...
In the meanwhile i bought a Surface Pro 2 also... and had the same Trouble, I had to send it in because of yellow lines ("just" one time, for now...)
What is going wrong here?
Its probably the glue, I guess you are just very unlucky. I went through two One Xs and luckily no yellow spots, in fact I have never gotten any device with that. Just get a warranty replacement, nothing else you can do. Its pretty bad on your phone, I believe its UV cured glue.

Bad luck, dude
It seems that yellow spots do happen in some of the phones manufactured in a certain period of time and cause mainly by the OCA(Optical Clear Adhesive) glue between the glass and digitizer
Thanks for your replies, i'm gonna return the phonre for repair again.
Could this Problem be connected with heat issues? All the Devices ( well, except maybe the xperia z3) could get very hot.
Yeah that can also cause that, do you live in a very hot area? I went to med school in a place where it commonly reached 45C/113F+ in the summer and I still never got this issue with my LG Optimus 2X, HTC One X and HTC Butterfly
Well no, it's not that warm here, it barely gets to 30C in Summer, and I got the issues also in winter... But my htc's and the z2 were itself good heaters
Did you solve this issue ? Did you need to replace screen ?

Yeah, unfortunately I had to replace the screen.
Actually they replaced the screen 3 times and after that (and after quite a bit of fight ) I returned the phone to the seller.
I seem to have some kind of bad luck in that regard, here is my statistic for the past few years:
Yellow spots on HTC One X -> screen replaced 3 times
Yellow spots on HTC One X + -> screen replaced 3 times
Yellow spots on Sony Xperia Z2 -> screen replaced 3 times
Yellow spots on Sony Xperia Z3 -> screen replaced 3 times
Yellow spots on Microsoft Surface Pro 2 -> screen replaced 1 time, it's yellow again and has to be replaced but I need it for work
And now:
Yellow spots on Microsoft Lumia 1520, have to send it in
I thought that I do something wrong (although I never had these Issues before HTC One X), then a few weeks ago I went to an electronics reseller to take a look at an exposed Surface Pro 3 and saw that picture... Look at that the yellow line on the left edge :silly:
You're very very unlucky mate....
3 different retailers and 5 different devices, with similar/same problems? There's something wrong happening there..

Hi Guys,
New to this forum. I recently sold my one plus due to the exact reason but this was at the bottom of the display. Many have said that it would disappear over time but after 6 months, the yellow band was still haunting me. Gave up because of how infuriating it was and sold it. Got this beast, loving it but I noticed straight away at the top left of the display there was a yellow spot which spreads slightly to the centre. Im not familiar with the characteristics of certain displays as I am aware of the different kinds of displays these two devices use. Just wondering, would this problem disappear over time ?? I saw this post on this particular "fix" sites, which says that it will over time given the glue dispersion from heat and what not. BUT, im just afraid (skeptic here) it would end up like my one plus. Im trying to avoid going back to the reseller as this phone was purchased from a grey importer. Any input from any of you guys would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

a lot of people have yellow spots . the spots are mostly visible in 0% brightness and grey backround. Install dead pixel detect and fix and choose gray from the menu. if the result is not good contact with lg service center to change the screen.
you mentioned also oneplus. I also had oneplus before. it had 2 issues the first one was the led light bleeding and the yellow banding. the led bleeding is only visible down due to the position of led lights of the phone and cannot be fixed. the yellow band was due to the glue that didn't properly fixed. I personally had this issue but after some months It was fixed by the use of the phone. I also let it 2-3 times under direct sunlight for 20-25 minutes.

Just wondering, would it work if id put the Flex 2 under the sun as well? The discolouration is only noticeable, like you said, on Grey background.. wonder if this would go away over time.. thanks again!! :crying::crying:

you can try it but I don't know if the glue is the issue. on the other hand lg has a very good service maybe it can replace your screen if the problem is so obvious

hey, i managed to exchange for another one. Though there is some improvement, the yellow spots are still apparent albeit less noticeable and only in Grey background. Did your's disappear, or at least improve overtime? How is it? I have tried using a 38W UV lamp for nearly an hour and the yellow spots are still there..

you may need to try a lot of screens to find a good one lol. Mine also has some yellow spots visible in grey but I can live with it... I have still 23 months to think about it (warranty)
Hi guys!
I have a nexus 5 which had just developed a nasty display issue. Last week the screen. Went quite pale and off colour. I thought it was possibly the yellow tint issue but it seems to be different. After a recharge overnight it seemed to go away but is back with a vengeance.
The screen is very pale, and there is a pink stripe down either side. It may even be a box right around the edge i can't quite tell. There also looks like there may be a blotch at the top that's mostly hidden by the notification bar, which looks a little like the bleed you.get on an old LCD screen if its damaged. Touch works fine. I'm wondering if it could be a hardware issue, the connection of the screen to the board, or if it's something that could be fixed with a kernel or root app.
This issue originally appeared when the phone was not rooted and running factory lollypop, I rooted to try the yellow tint fix of Franco's but I don't think that's the problem.
Thanks guys
Details attached
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Please see your device's specific forum here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5 But you most likely have a hardware issue.
hi got a s8 plus only recently ive noticed that in the bottom left hand corner of the screen, the black edging (see pics) seems to have moved out of position slightly, now on a darker screen i can see either a dead pixel or some kind of light leakage..the phone is about 6 months old..im assuming it comes under warranty?
I agree. Warranty
well i sent it off to samsung after i sent the pics to their tech suppport dept at [email protected] , they booked in a reapair ,will see what happens...will they replace the lcd screen or exchange the phone ? i see they received it today via the tracking info.
