So I noticed a dead/faulty pixel on my sony Erricsson Xperia mini pro sk17a night. On the most bottom, right part of the screen of you look at it portrait. This pixel flashes whenever I scroll down webpages nut flickers often even on the home screen. Either that or its really dim. It's just one pix I think.
So is anyone else getting this or just me?
Also, to fix this I go to my phone service provider to get it fixed right? Since its Rogers and it said they will fix it for free or something. I have not rooted or done anything to void the warranty.
Exactly the same problem.
I have exactly the same problem on SonyEricsson sk17a . Did they fixed it ?
There's a screen test on service menu: dial *#*#SERVICE#*#*, go to Service tests and test Display. It will go to a color every time you touch the screen, press back to exit. There you can see if its a pixel problem and wich color the pixel is stuck in (or dead).
Then you can take it to SE for repair (warranty of course).

Yes I would do the same.
10x.I'l give it a try.
I also contacted with SE's support. Just waiting for there reply ( to be honest it looks like a software issue ) . When there is static image on the display , it is OK.
Hello guys,
So what happened finally with that issue? Was it software problem finally? I have the xperia Mini ST15i and there is a dark pixel on the very left of the screen and it's only visible when there is motion, but not in static images of any color!
Please tell me what happened with your case.
Thanks!

Make a test in service menu as said some posts above.
If pixel is indeed buggy, take your phone to shop, should fall under warranty.
Its the screen's issue. If im not mistaken companies keep the 5 dead pixel policy. Not subpixel, but pixel.
If a subpixel is faulty (i think) you cannot see one of the three RGB subpixels, If the whole pixel is faulty you get a white dot where the pixel should be. So from what i understand you have a faulty subpixel, therefore the company itself wont hold it under warranty but your Service Provider might.
Pixel problem .
From the support center here in bulgariq , they told me , that they will forward this issue to SE .
No response till now . My problem was ( and still is ) identical . Pixel is OK on all the colors, except when there is moving image ( than it is not , white , gray or some other color .Than the pixell i just black (dead) )

I think I have the same issue, my pixel is ok in all colors, but when there is moving image (for example scrolling in browser) even in white color, there is a dark dot flashing.. when the scrolling stops the dot dissapears too!
Is it the same as yours?
dead pixel
Exactly the same behavior.
Same here... A pixel in the bottom of the screen, it works good, but when I scroll, the pixel turns black :S should I send it for the warranty?

Dead pixel issue
Try to send it . I wil contact them again and will try to point the problem more precisely. It is strange. It is not dead subpixel because it shows all the collors correct. I think the display controller is not OK. not the display itself.
so do you think that is the display driver? Or perhaps the build 0.62? Do you think that's good idea to return to a previous build? Is it possible to fix the issue?
I mean it could be graphics driver software issue as well.

I mean its not the screen for sure because this flickering pixel is only obvious in scolling for example.. also its located on the very bottom of the screen. its close to the XPERIA logo and light on the right. if the refresh rate is high it flickers fast so its difficult to see it.. when its static image there it dissapears..
Ofcourse it is an issue of the screen... You have a faulty subpixel. Maybe on non scrolling occurences the color is stabilized with the remaining 2 . This isnt windows/linux/mac, you dont upgrade drivers as you would on a computer. And no its not your GPU. If it were the gpu it youd be going haywire in random parts of the screen not just a specific 1x1 pixel area

To be honest I don't know if its a subpixel thing.. For example when Safari is loading, even on a white page, this pixel is flickering. When it stops loading the page, the pixel dissapears..
Have the same issue with my Xperia Mini ST15, I have a stuck pixel in the middle of screen (yes... that sucks) but it's only visible when the screen is showing a black color, its a shine pixel.

I have SE LWW i love this phone but what i have notice that it has some problem with the sensor that change the brightness according to the light conditions.
What happens is that sometimes the screen start to flicker that is continuous jump
between low and high brightness which is very irritating.
So please share if any one of u face the same problem or know anything about it.
I m using LwW from yesterday but havnt seen this kind of issue may be needing more time to cross check, will update definitely.

yeah mine too.
i think it's coming from the device light sensor, n we can't fix it until sony put an update.

Weird had the lww too and never had that problem. Do the ones that have it updated your phones?? I am currently on lasan's rom but never encounter it.
thanks for replying guys but i think it is the ambient light sensor problem that means it is a hardware problem so it might not get solved by update.
Be positive most of the times it is a kernel related problem or take to a service center and see if they give you a new one
Live With Walkman
Live with walkman has a ambient sensor in it which changes light accordingly
but i never noticed any flicker in my phone my suggestions would be take the
phone SE service center
the flicker shows when u look at screen from side. but from infront of the screen, it's hard to see.

I confirm this.
When brightness is not full(I used on half on Stock and Hybrom ROMs), then in some conditions the screen indeed does flicker a bit.
That is caused by ambient light sensor, which detects many different light levels at some point, that is the reason for changing screen brightness so much at that time.
Currently, I am not aware of solutions for this, as I do use custom ROM, where I haven't noticed it yet.

Is not a bug, most other phones have it also, that means light sensor works.

Sent from my ST17i using XDA
Yes the same problem is with me too!!
I was just wondering, if there was anyone already noticing the pixels dying on their display.
I noticed it first in the market. With grey background it's visible the most. The area of the status bar seems to be the first to go bad, because it's black almost all the time.
I am using the S2 since ... maybe April, or May (not even one full year), and I can see the screen go down the drain already... very poor quality!
i have use my s2g more than one year and does not have this problem... maybe your luck is not good... send back for warranty..
Did you test the screen?
i tested it last month and not found any problem...
Questions like this should be in Q&A
But I will answer anyway...
Yes...it is a known problem of AMOLED screen...it somehow "memorises" the colour which it is always on (e.g. The black colour of status bar)...i had this issue and went for a change of screen (mine was second hand but still under one year)...to reduce this effect, it is advisable for you to use the screen at a lower brightness...

Totally sorry, for the misposting. Wasn't sure, if G questions should go into non G forum at all.
But thanks for the info, and for moving my post.
I think I will start by going to my provider and tell him, that this is an AMOLED problem. Let's see, what they will say.
Thanks,

There is actually a Q&A section in the I9100G section......and lol...I am not a mod...
Pardon me if a thread already exists for this but I have tried to search but didn't find a thread describing this problem any where. Redirect me if you know of a thread like this.
So here is what I am experiencing. My One Max is a week old but from day one I have noticed that while i am typing a text message or email screen brightness increases a bit as soon as I hit any key on screen. Sometime it happens sometime it doesn't. I have also noticed that it only happens wherever key pops up on keyboard e.g E, R, G, O etc etc or it happens when I am scrolling messages or any thing which is in Black and White contrast (May it be messages or a web page with different dark and light pictures/rich text)
Mine is a brand new Stock Phone. No unlocked bootloader, or S-Off or Custom ROM or something of that sort. Brightness is at around 30%-40% in settings. Phone CID is HTC__J15 (Arab CID and International version).
I don't think its an hardware problem but wanted to share it with you guys and find a reason as well as a solution to it.
Cheers.
It sounds like your light sensor is adjusting itself very rapidly. I can't confirm if that's an hardware issue as your environment or fingers might have preventing light from falling on the sensor.
I would suggest you to ask a friend or a family member use your phone and see if that happens to them also, this way you could make out if your way of handling the phone is creating the issue or the hardware might be faulty.
Might be you were typing in a landscape mode.
When typing those letters, your left thumb blocks the light sensor.
If yes, then I would think It is normal.
It is just how do we use this beast.

I agree. This flickering doesn't matter to me too because this phone has so much more to offer that bit of a flickering wont bother me at all. I bought Note 3 for $710 and sold it right after 10 days for $600 because I didn't like touchwiz at all. But this One Max is an ultimate phone for me for next two years I believe
I've noticed it but only in low light situations. I just set my brightness at night or in dark places to eliminate the issue.

I have this too..... Just when brightness is from 0 - 24 % ( if flickers) (by higher back-light it is away - but it sucks, when you wanna watch movies in night You think it is a thing for reclamation? And have you too that the upperside of the lcd below the sensors and front camera is more white (from the back-light) than the lower side cca 1cm by the hardware buttons? you can see it in white background by web browsing.... etc...

No, I haven't noticed any brighter spot under front Cam or over hardware buttons. Don't have this problem at least in my phone but yes flickering is something that I notice regularly.
Its not something which bothers me in a great deal but I believe we must get a perfect product because we spend a serious amount of money at the time of purchase. In my country HTC One Max is for $700 and I believe this is a lot of money to spend on a phone at least.

It is on my phone bad back-light. (on upper-side you can see more white light from the light-tube... or what is there, down by hardware-buttons is instead less light it seems like burned out)
These two things with flickers - flickers less than the back-light worry's me.
You think it can be solved by reclamation on warranty repair. (i´m afraid that they say, ... this is normal by these kind of lcd) and they do nothing...
But i will it send because we are customers, and we payed not for a brick bud for high tech.... so i hope it well be good.
Before i had no problems with htc warranty's..... ( i try to show you pictures of it.... )

I certainly believe that this must be covered in warranty. None of us paid that much of an amount to own a faulty handset. If they tell you that all units are like that then you should take your money back and look for any other phone. My brother owns HTC One, my wife has HTC One X and they don't have this faulty backlight issue then how come it can be a default feature in HTC One Max.

Bottom line is that I use the phone in dark places so, internet browsing, movie watching, is not possible on zero backlight just from 26... 27% it's seems be to eliminated...

One Max screen brightness fluctuations
I noticed this to be the case on my One Max the first couple of weeks playing with it. i noticed at times the screen would get dimmer and dimmer. While it wasn't ovewhelmingly annoying, I decided to disable automatic brightness in settings-brightness and all my screen troubles went away! :victory:

In your video I can see that screen brightness changes and that happens to me too. This happens when webpage or movie has different Black and White contrast and screen goes kind of crazy as what it should do and there it starts kind of flickering. However, Screen Backlight Tubes problem in those photos that you posted earlier, I dont have that issue in my phone atleast. I belive that is something you should get your Unit fixed/replaced from HTC.

A few weeks ago i, accidently, dropped my Z2. As a result of this my touchscreen was broken :crying:
My reseller told me that he could sent it to sony but that the costs would be high. App. 200 € ! He advised me to go to a tird party phone repair centre.
So i did. They placed a new touchscreen for 150 €. At first sight the screen works perfect and the colors are perfect. But.... sometimes when i'm typing a message
the screen does not capture my touch? Then i need to touch the screen multiple times to get a reaction. But it's a bit strange. When i'm in my bed with the lights out
the screen captures perfect?? When i use antutu Multi-touch test the screen works perfect! In light and dark conditions!! Is it a hardware issue? A sofware issue.
I tried multiple roms. I tried stock rom. But the problme remains. Anyone who has an idea?
ps Sorry for my bad English!

From your tests you can say its a hardware problem, you can't always expect perfect results from external sources.
I know But it's a bit strange that sometimes it works perfect.
And i just figured out why the screen works perfect at night. When i'm in bed i use the app twilight.
This app filters some light frequencies and dimms the screen. When this app is active the screen works normal!
It seems that it's a brightness issue?
I believe some faulty ICs in the screen are being overheated as high light frequencies are being used so causing the touch layer to stop working.
Sry, for my bad English. But you should check again the store that replaced your screen. :/
So after month of owning this phone (SD version), yesterday I noticed that there was green pixel on dark backround. After a while of looking at black picture with max brightness, I noticed several small red-blue-green dots all over the screen, which weren't visible on other backrounds. I have already sent it to repair centre (free screen replacement). I just wanted to ask, is it frequent problem with RN3 or I was just unlucky? Is there any side effects of replacing the screen?
I'm using this device for about 6 months now and i haven't seen even one dead pixel in my phone till now, but I haven't noticed even one dead pixel on the screen till now...
So, I guess you were unlucky and your device had this problem...

I have rn3 sd version.
and I noticed 3-4 dead pixels on the screen
it cannot be seen on regular usage. hardly can be noticed when lcd test (dark screen full brightness)
I think many rn3 phones have same problem. many users just have not noticed yet.
it's common and expected, for the price you won't get the best panel, i also have 2 stuck pixels, one green and one red
Yeah I got one too and maybe 2-3 more...but not visible in normal usage.
Happened after like 5-6 months.
hmm, it seems that many are having stuck pixels, mine just had too many and it's free screen replacement anyway, so Thanks for replies guys.

I guess I'm the lucky one then:fingers-crossed:
Some of my friends have the same device and they also don't have any dead pixels...
Well, see if your replacement panel also have the same issue...
Edit: I don't think that's a kernel bug as many users including me are on Radon and none of them reported this issue...
I have a unusual red fingerprint that barely visible on the bottom part of my screen.
You can only see it on still black screens and you will have to look carefully to see it.
It is a comment problem to LCD screen my all phones have dead pixel except Redmi note 3

I guess I'm the lucky one then:fingers-crossed:
Some of my friends have the same device and they also don't have any dead pixels...
Well, see if your replacement panel also have the same issue...
Edit: I don't think that's a kernel bug as many users including me are on Radon and none of them reported this issue...

Yeah, I'm pretty sure thats not kernel related (I haven't flashed any custom kernels anyway). I hope replacement screen will be good.
I had a orizontal green line at bottom only on miui.
On aosp doesnt exist.
My phone has several blue and green patch, when I purchased never noticed it till 1 month. After that I got screen replacement when I visited service center, Now my phone creeks.. If grabbed hard its back panel creeks.
I don't blame, Its a cheap company and cheap phone. But performance is good.

Creaking is actually common on RN3. Althought mine didn't (well, I was using a silicon case) and I don't think screen replacement did that, unless service center did a bad job at it.

Actually back panel is rubber glued. (The speaker and upper panel) I think when they open up phone, for screen, they removed rubber glue, so now it creeks against plastic..
