Charged the phone while I was doing some work ,I unplugged it at 90%,at the moment I didn't realized that the screen is yellow.After a few days I saw that the screen was a bit odd,if the screen shows a black photo,were the yellow spots are white.
Did it fall on the floor, took bad bumps, stayed on a heat font for a long period..? It's too much bizzarre to face this as a result of a software issue/error. You could try to send it to service center saying that you found it like that from one day to another, if it isn't a result of an accidental impact caused by you they should fix that by replacing the screen.

I have screen burn in on my Fuze. The two soft buttons and the bottom 2/3's of the scroll bar are visible when they shouldn' t be. For example, click on a reminder at the top so that the screen goes black with the next screen allowing you to choose if you want the reminder, wireless info, etc... At the bottom I'll see the soft keys and program select scroll bar in a gray tint.
I guess I need to leave a white image on the screen for an extended time to undo the burn. But I've only had this phone for a few weeks...I've never had burn in on a cell phone and surely never this quickly on any monitor.
Something similar happened twice to me.. It faded out slowly.. now it's ok

Funny now it's gone after having it turned off for a couple hours. I'll post if it comes back after I have it on for a bit.
It's Back!!! only took one power on cycle and let it sit there for a couple of minutes :-(
kind of scary.
Is it still under warranty?
Weird but believe me - it is a software issue. Restart will always help

Yes, I'm going to get them to do a warranty replacement. I had another fuze that had a different issue (bad sound) that I replaced after 30 days...it never had this issue.

I think the part of the reboot that "fixes" it is the screen goes white for a while which helps clear it up. But a few minutes later its back.
The same happens for me, but not very often.
It must be a software issue, no need to replace your device.
BTW, It's definately not a burnt in screen.

It goes away easier if I use the SPB Clock and put it on the white clock...plug it in...set power options stay on 10 minutes when plugged in.
So it is an LCD type of burn it (it appears) as it goes away when a white screen is forced upon it. I think the pixels in that part of the screen don't change very often so it gets a little memory that needs to be "washed" away. Odd thing is my last one never did it. So I think some LCDs are better quality then others.
Its happened to me twice and both times its gone away.
Its good to hear its a software issue, I was worried it might be hardware.

My first Fuze had this problem. Sure I flashed a lot of roms but each rom displayed the same result for me. After getting a new device, the problem never occurred again.
If it was software, it would be doing on everyone's device in the same place or region. This is a hardware problem, no doubt in my mind. The same rom on 2 different phones would yield the same results if it were software related.
If your phone displays this type of "burn-in" then take it back, exchange it, whatever. My new phone has been perfect and works as it is supposed to.
Unusual Events?
Were there any unusual events that led up to the screen-burn in? It is odd that they would go away and come back like that.... did you try flashing another ROM?
Saw this 'burn in' a couple times too. Was scrolling the touchflo3d and went to the photo and videos tab. Once in camera mode I noticed faintly overlay 'album' and 'slideshow' on the view finder. But the 2 words couldn't have been burned in as its not normally on that tab. Probably some weird software driver issue.
Hi
I`ve been using my SW2 for 2 weeks and I have noticed few spots on my screen. See below.
It seems like the display has been de-colorized or influenced by most frequent touching zones on the display.
I still have warranty is this an issue and I should return this watch or?..
any suggestions what is going on?
PS: I have not exposed my watch to water or anything.

I've had my watch for over 3 months and have no problems like this. You could contact Sony and see if they will repair or replace it. Looks like a warranty issue to me.
if you look at the watch at a 90 degree angle, you will not see this, but if you look at lets say a 30 or 20 degree, you will see this, it's a LCD backlight washing issue, it's a common issue with LCD screens, i have a very slight washing, nothing like yours, you should def send it back to sony, this is too much washing
This is what happened to me today, I`ve tried restarting the watch and no help. Not sure how to do hard reset and not sure if it would help.
I`m sending them back.

I have the same problem! So if we are both with this issue, it looks like technical iisue of this watch.
What's more sometimes lines and weird colors disappear but after that they will appear again. :/

Okay, I've got exactly the same problem about a month after I brought it. I got mine replaced. I've got it back today after waiting for a month. Hope the new one will last longer.
What I suspect is a battery issue where the battery heats up and also heats the display. The reason to suspect the battery is because it was kinda weak and lasted 2 days at most with very light usage and was heating a bit during charge which may be the cause of display failure.
this is what SONY replied to me
" That appears to be a hardware fault so better send it back or have it assessed at Sony service center."
and this is fresh screen from this morning, the defect is changing but it is getting worst and worst.

Looks bad, so give it back to Sony
Hi, i'm new and know very little about how phones work. I clicked on the ota notice. It downloaded until the srceen lit up with the little coloured balls were swirling on the screen for about 20 seconds. The it went to a very dimly lit grey blank screen. I left it for about 10 mins but it just got hot. Then i started pressing the on button to turn it off. All i can get now is the grey screen. The alarm went off on it this morning so it is still working in some part. hope this makes sense.
Help needed please

I had a new screen fit last week (copy i think) is it likely the screen has died on me?

Well, might be a stupid question but... Does the screen works ? I mean, do you have the black screen & google logo when you boot ? Or just the grey screen ?

All i get is a very very dim grey screen when i mess with the on off button.
Nothing on it at all.
The screen was playing up a bit a few days ago. Cost me £110 to get it fitted.
The original screen broke near the volume rocker.

Chances are high it's the screen then, especially if it was or has been playing up since you've had it replaced. Go back to the shop that fitted it and ask them to fix it at their cost.

So, this isn't the origal screen of your Nexus 5 ?
Well, it seems like an hardware issue if you've got the same grey screen when the phone boots..
Who did the reparation on the screen ? You ? Google/LG ? Or a store ?

I got it done at a local market store. he did say bring it back if i had any problems.
just seems a bit odd that it went on the update. It did get very hot though.
I'l take it in on saturday and see if they will have a look.
Anybody think i'l be covered for the screen being bad from a market store?
tx for the replies.

Well, you won't be covered by LG/Google waranty (unless your local store is regognized by LG and has authorizations to change screens without woiding the warranty, but i have some serious doubts here :/)
I don't think that the temperatures would have killed the screen but, you may not mention it to you local store (or they will probably say that the temps are the cause of the dead screen and charge you for a new one..)
Good luck
I don't really know what is happening but my year old nexus 5 seems to be developing a display problem.
It got a yellowish tint at the bottom of the screen but the top 3/4 is totally fine. What is causing it and is it just me who have this problem? Also, if you have any, please post some solutions to the problem without RMA or replacing anything.
It might be something about light leak but I am not seeing any when the screen is displaying a black picture.

I have a similar thing but it tends to only be on the bottom 1/8 of the screen.
I tend to find this is because this is the least used area of the screen - being where the soft keys go. Try running it full screen, full brightness on a white page (probably using something like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.displaytester&hl=en_GB). When you do this, does the yellowish tint fade over time?

By Over Time do you mean 30 minutes or a day? I tried this method before for about half an hour and it does not seems to be working. Will try it again now. But will it really help?
My OCD is killing me. I told myself not to look at the tint and I end up just staring at it.
so my phone yesterday randomly got a stuck ghost touch on one pixel on the phone then it was fixed randomly
so today i saw a black line on the screen and also the phone touch screen is touching on the same pixel on the black line
this problem popped suddenly
any known solution?
ps i dont have xiaomi warranty
It seems to me that physical damage (hardware) screen, perhaps exerted a lot of pressure on it
