[Q]Sony Ericsson Live: can you see strange dots on screen? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi.
I bought a Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman WT19 and I can see on the screen some dots in form of matrix: I think it is the touch matrix.
Is it normal?
Thanks.
Bye!
! !

I have personally no problem with my LWW.
Can you make a screenshot of those dots via Power Menu?

Weird! Take a screenshot and upload it to your pc..if you can still see the dots on the pc, then I guess it s a software problem...if you don't, I believe they are burnt pixels! :-/

It isn't a software problem, it's hardware (if it's a problem).
I took some photos:

Tomorrow I'll take photos with sunlight.

Ah, mine has those also.
Don't mind, just some technical stuff, nothing wrong with your phone
Last photo are these pixels, phone's display doesn't have much pixels per inch, so you can see the pixels easily on these photos.
Previous photos I think something related with the touch stuff.

I thought that mine wasn't built very well.
Thank you.
Bye!

i'm sorry but just want to say LoL!!!

What do you mean?
Are you talking of film protector like this?
Bye!

Those dots are "technology" of screen all our devices have. There (at least for me) are only noticiable when on the sun or other bright spot

Yes, I wrote it (I think it is the touch matrix.) but I couldn't see it on other phones, never (it isn't my first smartphone).
I thought it's a "manufacturing defect".
Bye!

So did anyone already found some dead pixels or subpixels, or yellowspots / stains in the screen.
Let us know here.

Lucky you, i have a "dead pixel", green one.
And a yellowspot in the rightbottom corner, but that'll fade over time. (i hope)
I'm glad that the screen has a very high resolution, it's really hard to even notice the dead pixel.
I have noticed a yellowish tinge at the bottom of the display. Only really notice it when there is a white background. Is it likely that the display is somehow faulty??

I have the exact same, a yellowish spot in the bottom right corner.
I hoped it was the same problem as the iphone or SGS2.
They say the yellowspot is from the glue that they use to stick the screenlayers together, but it needs time to vaporise and should go away over time.
But I have my phone now almost a week and i still get the spot back now and then.

Lol software problem :')
Sounds like bull**** to me.
I had contact with T-Mobile today, about the dead pixel and yellowspot.
The guy told me he's going to get information for me, and see if they can replace it. he'll send me an email later.
Same hear.
Barely visible yellowish (only on whites) at the bottom part of the screen.
It varies depending on the view angle.
Perfect screen here

T-Mobile called me today, they'll send me a new one next week
I've had 2 Xperia S's so far both have some/one dead subpixels, T-mobile will call me when they have it on stock it again.

Lucky you! I'm still waiting for update from Sony! Will see if they can replace the unit.
I also noticed that at times the yellowish spot disappears and appears back again! I wonder what it could be!!

Ah you are the guy from the T-Mobile forum (Hiraj) with 5 dead pixels.
Anyway they told me it's in stock again next week (Monday 19th)
Just noticed that my screen keeps flickering, this is more noticeable on white backgrounds, is this normal as in the auto brightness or should I be worried?

Hi guys just wanna update you regarding screen issues.
I've spoken with people on the forum of my country, other 2 guys with Xperia S and both of them got that really barely visible yellow tint on the bottom part of the screen (also, one of these guys has 2 Xperia S -him and his brother- and both of them have that tint).
Really difficult to explain it on forums (nothing compared to the GS2 yellow tint) because it's really hard to see and only visible on white/clear colors uniform backgrounds, but according to what I'm seeing it's a common issue, not a problem of a single faulty unit.
Got a blue/whiteisch pixel to the top right of my screen
They said i need to have more then 3 to get a new phone :/`
Can i fix this ?

I have the problem too. I called technical team dept from where i bought the phone, and they asked me to do a screen test over the phone. I tap the screen it shows all white, tap again red, green etc etc. He asked me if i could see a yellowish tinge running across the bottom of the display when these colours appeared on the display which i couldn't to be honest. I took it back to the shop, and i dont know if it has to do with the bright lighting within the store, but it didn't show up hardly at all, barely noticeable. It seems less noticeable in a well lit environment, or outside as opposed to when i am at home where it i notice it more. It is midly annoying, but this shouldn't be the case.
Can anyone throw any light as to what this could be??
Thanks

I believe that yellowish tint has something to do with warmth from the screen or the battery or the screen staying on for a longer time or something or something.
because when I'm using it alot, playing games, browsing, whatsapp etc etc. for like an hour. It gets more visible.
And then it's from "barely noticeable" to "hard to miss"
I can clearly see it on Grey (notification slide down) or Blue (startscreen DrawSomething) or White.

Same here. Interesting what you say. I would still like to know where the consumer stands on this issue, and if Sony themselves would recogonise if this is a somehow a fault with the display. My Arc had no such problems.
Hi guys,
I'm new here, but I was reading the threads on the S from the start.
Reading through the screen problems I was thinking about the following:
The Xperia S's screen is glued- as I know -, like for example the iPhone4/4s'. Some i4 users noticed this yellowish tint as well, and they've came to a conclusion it was because of the glue what was used to put the screens together and it disappeared after about 1,5-2 weeks.
This could explain the reaction to temperature differences too.

[Q] Digitizer grid?

Hey people!
I have had this Sony Xperia Z2 for about a week now and I'm happy about everything but the screen. When tilting the phone in decent lightning I can clearly see the grid in the shape of lines going vertically from the top to the bottom of the screen like you can see on the posted photo. I can also see the dots when the sun is shining but this is something that everybody is reporting so I'm not worried about that.
So my question is, do you also see this and as clear as I am?
Yes, you can sleep well, we have the same visible grid. This is a price for thinnes of display.
Nice

Okay, please write here if you find out something about this subject. I find it quite strange though that no reviewers even mentions this when I picked up on it instantaneously.
About their technology, I saw a video from sony where they showed the display and the things underneath the screen. At one point they showed like blue lights shaped like lines which probably are what we see when looking at the screen from an non straight angle.

even my z1 had this i guess its the technology use in the screen ( ex. triluminos )
It's in all capacitive touch phones, but it vary from one to one on how easy to spot them depending on the screen and touch screen technology...
I had these in almost all my phones, Sony and non-Sony so don't worry...
In Xperia Z is the same.
My first phone had massively visible patterns on the screen and were clearly visible when the screen was off, I got my device replaced as it had gaps and over heating issues and the new device I received has nothing on it. Even the ones on display in the store had none. So i will put it down to a certain batch / manufacturing lot carrying these patterns.
PS: my first device was a W15 and the new one is a W19.
Can anyone post a picture with the digitizer visible in order to assess if this would be an issue?
Thanks.
I wonder if it has to do with how reflective the Z2 screen is. I've noticed that it's more reflective than most smartphone screens. It's not a huge deal to me, but I also think it's why some people complain about the outdoor performance. Ideally Sony will improve this in the future.

[Q] Dead / Stuck pixel.

Hello Z2 forum. This is my first post here, and i am a little disappointed that i start with a complaint.
Let's begin: I just bought my Z2, and i am so happy with it. But playing around with it ended in finding a kind of stuck / dead pixel. In fact, i don't even know how to call it. As my english is not good enough, i made a video :
video uploading.. sorry :|..
Link to video : http://youtu.be/p3vt7Pw2TJw
Link to video ( dropbox ) : https://www.dropbox.com/s/va0oli8v04jnoad/VID_20140708_233457.3gp
Always scan with virustotal : https://www.virustotal.com
That little pixel can also be seen when browsing on GooglePlay or when the button bar is black. As you might have seen in the video, when using poweramp the bar is still black but pixel's color depends on album's art color. My 2 questions are :
1. WTF ? ( nah, just kidding ).
2. Is this a ROM issue ? I don't know how the button bar is made. My only guess is that the button bar may be transparent in that area ( like using eraser on a image in photoshop ).
Thank you and please don't mind my broken neck english.

No, it's a hardware issue. I had the same problem with my Xperia SL.
It would be covered by warranty if there are at least three dead pixels.
EDIT: Can you see the pixel on the black section of the bootanimation/bootsplash when restarting the phone?

It also depends what angle you look at it from. The stuck pixel on my Xperia SL was visible on a few angles and changed colour as I tilted the phone.

Tried in several positions, i can't see it. Only when opening some apps ( the pixel is not visible in every app, even if the button bar is still black black ). Did they change yours for only one pixel under warranty ?
Go to service menu dialing *#*#7378423#*#* and check the display, especially by black or white screen you'll find if you have dead or stuck pixels.
Try going to a local SONY center. Costin, check pms.
Look in my attachments below.
I have opened 2 images. One green, and one red.
That motherf**** pixel that annoys me so badly, only appears on the green screen. What the ?
EDIT: That's the only reason i doubt it's a hardware problem and guess it's a software issue, but i may be wrong.
EDIT 2: My phone is also insured*. So in case i break it, i'll get a new one.
*for only 5euros/mo.

If you clean your screen and look really close mine is a tiny tiny bit of dust the only one as far as I can see

Then I suggest you get your phone replaced (this way you can get the feeling of destroying a phone without actually losing anything -_- )

Lines of dots on screen in sunlight? Normal?

As per title, at certain angles in sunlight I see a matrix of dots on screen, is this normal, ie its just the multitouch matrix?
Is it common on Z2?
Got my Z2 yesterday, refurb phone via contract. It looks new so hope its normal
Yes it's normal.

It only come time to time if u think about it, you cant compare 1 display with another xD
So as I am walking with my phone, sun behind me I get lines of bright dots going up and down the screen. So annoying!!!
yup, I was wondering about that as I've had a g2 and m7 before, but never seen this.
the screen seems fine however
It is in fact normal. It is for the capacitive touch screen. I had galaxy note and Omnia HD and they did not have something like this, but I know that HTC HD2 had it.
It's just digitizer (touch device). On some phones it's just more visible than on the others. You just have to get used to it.
its typical on slimmer xperias
had it on my xperia s and also both of my Z2s

Mate 10 yellowish stripe on screen bottom

Hi,
I have a Mate 9, and tried a 5T, didnt like it due to 18:9 aspect ratio and I returned it.
Now I'm trying the Mate 10 and so far I'm liking it, it is not a big upgrade from Mate 9, it actually loses on sound power and screen brightness compared to M9, but overall it is good, specially because I think that it is going to be one of the last flagships to come with 16:9 on near future.
I prefer FPS on rear, but the possibility to use the FPS as navbar make it worthy to be on front.
All said, what is bothering me is that on the very bottom of the screen there is a yellowish stripe (all screen wide), making the screen uneven on color.
Had anyone have this issue?
Could it be the glue not be totally cured? Will it fade with time?
It bothers me and I dont want to return the phone because of this, but if the issue is final, I'll return it.
How'd you go with this? Did it go away or did you return it for another unit?
I'm in the exact same situation. Slight yellow tinted band at the bottom. Kinda trying to convince myself it doesn't bother me, but I can't help but look at it every time now. Hope it will fade away. Don't really want to return it either.
I git that yellowish tint also at the bottom screen. I already send to huawei service center ti change new screen but have the same problem after changed new screen. Any advice? Should i send back to huawei and change a new screen again? Thank you

Weel indeed, if your model is a Mate 10, then no OLED screen, so different problem than mine. Good luck !
Well i think it's the glue wich is not cured totally yet.
When i got my Mate 10, i had exactly same yellowish part at the bottom screen and now its totally gone.
Use your screen brightness as high as you can for some time and watch for it, mine took like 2 weeks for be gone.
Sorry for my poor english
