I got my S10e last month and noticed a weird problem/issue with it. The screen has ghost letters all over the screen that are only visible on a grayish screen. I use black wallpapers and keep brightness on the lower side so didn't notice it earlier. See pics to understand what I'm talking about. I used to have a S9+ before and didn't have this problem. I was wondering if this is something only on my device and I should get it replaced or is it on all/most devices out there. If you've a S10e or other variants can you please confirm if you have this issue.
Thanks
PS sorry for the weird link (remove spaces). xda cdn is not working and being a new user I can't add links

not common issue as far as I know - sounds like an issue with your device - try to get it replaced due to defect
Try to invert colors maybe to see if it fixes, probly wont but all I can think of
Too soon to have screen burn issue. I've note 3 and s6 over 4 years but still didn't have this issue.

This is not even burn in by my use. I never had any wallpaper or anything with those letters, seems like an issue/burn-in from the factory. Will need to get it replaced
Get it repaired under warranty. If you're in the USA, the "uBreakiFix" stores are Samsung authorized repairers.
Or just get a new unit since it's so new.
Seems its new unit then better send for replacement.

This is my second one not purchased in the same store. I see the same issue that I had with the prior. Funny a different state and different CVS upscale drug store and it still has the same issue. I bet all of them this way and most buyers are unaware of this issue with the panel. Either Anti-Glare film wasn't applied correctly or the the panel is not assembled correctly. No QCI, if there were this wouldn't have pass inspection and be rejected.
Down below you can see what's going on. If you do firmware update or factory reset i you can see how bad it is.

I've posted the above at many forums so far this reply was the best answer.
I have noticed that text cutoff on the left edge of mine, too (landscape with "Craig" logo on top). Looks either like a classic video adjustment issue (hsync on LCD possible?), or imprecise placement of the LCD panel within the bezel, which I suspect is more likely considering the price point. Simple fix: rotate 180 degrees for apps where it matters like a terminal session
But then the placement of the top layer on the screen (protector? anti-glare? digitizer?) might be more noticeable as there is a gap of about that same 1mm or so on that side. Hmm... maybe that is also imprecise screen placement issue - everything shifted that way? Oh well, for <$100 we may have to overlook the "edge cases"

Simple test to see if you run CM3.apk
I recently dropped my Xoom (in a case onto a carpeted floor). It semeed to survive but now the display shows distorted colors like the sample attached. I thought it might be a loose connection but I can be working away and the screen will revert to normal and stay that way for days.
And I can suspend it while it's okay, come back to it and the display is corrupt again.
Can anybody work out what could be going on? I would prefer not to have to replace the screen but I don't really know if that is the issue if it reverts back to normal all the time.
Thanks

The screenshots look fine to me, how about upload the images of your LCD screen not screenshots.

Silly me. The screen shots look distorted to me also because I was posting on the device!
Yeah looks like a loose connector to me. You may be able to fix it if it was a soldering joint. I guess the repair can do the same thing.
I dropped my tablet recently and the screen got screwed like yours, but mine is worse. I don't know too much about hardware, but I think that it's the crystal that broke, so it may be hard to fix :/. Anyway, if you get it back working I hope you to share some info with me, as well I will do if I get working .
so i bought this 16gb nexus 5 D820 a little over 2 months ago and had no problems with it whatsoever until this noon, when i was just browsing the 'net as usual, my phone became warm, i thought it was normal since i checked cpu-z it said it was 45 degrees and normal, cool..i kept on browsing till it rebooted by itself twice, still no problem,cool. since it was running low on battery i charged it and upon finishing the screen looks like this now, apart from it, everything else still works though.

i thought it was software issue since i didn't crack the screen, nor did i drop it, i was on purity + hellscore then. i flashed google factory image, unroot it and locked the bootloader again making it look as if it was just taken out of the box, but to no avail, it still looks like this up until now
i guess the heat somehow broke the lcd's component,
has anyone ever experienced this before ? how on earth could this happen?
Just a random hardware failure... These things just happen out of the blue... I'm not sure but I don't think this flickering has anything to do with the device rebooting itself on getting hot..
RMA it asap...
Even I am facing the same issue since few days. I am yet yo find the solution to fix this. I do not want to replace the display just for this. I just hope this might not create any problems in future. Please let me know if u have found the solution to fix this issue
I received a "t-mobile replacement" for my "insurance refurbished Note 5" . Look at the differences. The one on the right is either an old hardware revision or a bad refurbished.

The CPO (certified preowned) I bought is the newer style with FCC stuff on the bottom back.

i see a Note 5 that had the back glass replaced. The picture of the lense - idk what I'm looking at. Be specific when you post stuff like this. It looks dirty either inside or outside but idk what is going on.
Why did you use your insurance?
Tmobile is good at many things; refurbishment isn't one of them. They send I my self and a friend of mine have both received refurbished devices that should not have been able to pass quality control with even a cursory inspection.
Samsung did make a change on the S-Pen piece that was getting broken when you inserted it in backwards.

They didn't have my previous phone so they sent the N5 instead. Yeah, the lense is dirty inside. T-mobile replaced it with no question asked.
Hello everyone,
I'm new on this forum. Please help me to understand and solve my problem.
I bought pre-owned OnePlus One stone black 64GB.
Today I see on my phones screen Dot's like dead pixel all around the screen. When I go to black background Dot's comes visible. I can't identify what is real problem. For first I think this is damaged pixels and I must change screen but when I swipe on the screen Dot's goes with moved objects (icons, wallpaper) then I restart phone and all black boot background appear I see lot of Dot's dancing all over the screen. After that I think software problem. I root my phone, flash kernal with TWRP but problem steel exist. I go back to official software but the same problem.
Please see attached screen shot. Look around Chrome icon. When I slide on touch screen those green Dot's goes with icon.
Please help me to understand what is real problem.
Thanks.

Looks like GPU artifacts.
Failing GPU may be .. If the dots are moving and not constant. Try will latest CM13 to rule out issue of software problem. If still dots move then its hardware issue ..
