I didn't notice it until today when I was browsing webpages with white background and noticed a yellow tint at the bottom edge of the screen, where the black border and n button is located. I'm no screen expert and I don't really know what caused the issue. I know that this area is where the nook gets hot when I have wifi turned on and if this is what's causing the yellow tint then I'm screwed because... I use wifi on this a lot.
How are your screens?
My NT screen is fine, and I use WiFi almost all of the time. Yours is under warranty, right? So you're not "screwed." Get it checked out at a B&N store and replaced if necessary.
Same
I seem to have the same issue but only right above where the hard "n" button is. Unfortunately I am in Canada and bought it while I was visiting my parents in the states. Maybe they will let me ship it back. I'll call them up and find out.
And I'm in the Philippines. Let us know how it goes. Best of luck!

It even is skewed red during the Viewsonic boot screen. At first I thought it was a fancy low-power warning because it occurred last night when the battery hit 15%. But a full charge and a reboot didn't fix it. Neither did booting into the loader and resetting my battery statistics. Other than the horrible screen coloring it works just fine.
I searched the forums and found a number of people with green-hued screens but nobody complaining about red. Am I looking at RMA-ville?
Is it red-hued on every screen such as the recovery menu? If every single menu screen is that way & a factory reset or NVFlash or reflashing a new rom doesn't fix the issue, I would venture to say it's a faulty screen.
try the "Love Tap"
I remember reading this thread a couple of days ago http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878624&page=2
some people were apparently experiencing a blank white screen which was being caused by a loose connecter in the tablet.
Check post #20 on the thread I linked and someone even posted a picture of it.
Your issue *might* be related to this and thus I would suggest trying the "Love Tap" method.
Just hit the damn thing a couple of times near the bottom right corner and hope you get lucky.
Same issue
Had the same red hue issue with my G-Tab. At first it was just if I held it a certain way or put pressure on specific areas. It got progressively worse to where I had to hold it or put pressure on one area of the back or screen to get it to go away. Contacted Viewsonic customer support, they issued an RMA. I just got the repaired tab back today. No surprise, but it's been reflashed with Tap-n-tap. I guess that gives me an excuse to try the new release of Vegan or maybe cm7.

I just had the same problem with the red hued screen and did the "love tap" on the right hand corner and it did the trick and now I have the normal black background. What a great site!
Hello, please forgive me if i make a new thread about bleeding. Searching it a while ago and cant find any answer about that. No its not about bleeding when screen on. Its about bleeding when screen off!
Its been 2 months since i got this amazing phone. Through this forum i learn to flash both custom rom and kernel and all work well.
Few days ago, my friend talk about yellow tint and bleeding screen.
Used *#0*# to test it then I used Receiver (white) to test yellow tint and vibration (black) to test bleeding screen. Glad i dont see any sign that my friend told me.
Then last night right before i go to bed (dark room), i charge my phone (i always turn off my phone when im sleep) i see a black spot at the edge of my phone screen (around battery image).
Any1 know what it is and how to remove it?
Or its a lcd issue and i much replace it with a new lcd?
Is that "black spot" effect my phone performance.
Im afraid it getting worst.
Thanks and sorry for bad english
Hi,
I dropped my Galaxy S2 Yesterday (have no idea if this relates to it) But i plugged it into the charger this morning and everything was blue & some of the screen had turned black and some icons had burnt into the screen it looked like.
After taking it with me because it was still usable, Its not completely black except for maybe the faintest part of blue.
Im running Lite'ning rom, The newest one im pretty sure.
Just wondering if this is a virus? Or the screen is dead. I just cant see how it could suddenly die when it was flat and not turned on.
Phones not under warranty by the way. So maybe you could give me some options?
Thanks heaps guys
Probably the problem is hardware related due to the fall, but you could back all your data and try to do a factory reset to see if it fixes or not. If it doesn't fix maybe you should check your screen hardware.
Thanks for the reply,
I just reflashed Litening with Odin 1.85 and still nothing, I get the vibrations, touch lights, sound ect, But only occasionally a tiny little strip of blue along the top.
How would i check my screen hardware? Because i pulled apart my galaxy s after it died and accidently cracked the screen & Glass
How would i do a factory reset by the way? Since i cant see anything
I'd imagine it's dead. I'd take it to your local store and ask for an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it. If you can't see anything, then the screen is either broken or it got disconnected (or maybe some of the ribbons did at least).
Yeah, I just dont really wanna take the phone apart unless i know its likley to fix it.
When i first got it, I noticed it had black splotches on the screen in very dim light on a white background. Nd im guessing id have to almost buy a whole front screen assembly to replace the front screen D:.
Would i be better just to sell the phone how it is? Or repair it?
I noticed today when i woke up i cannot press the right side of the screen and get any kind of response. It is only about a thumbs with of the right edge but this prevents me from being able to hit send on text messages on the default messaging app and also on go sms as the send buttons are in the same general location. Is my phone just FUBAR or is there some way i can resolve the issue. Have tried power cycling and thats about it. I guess i need to know if this is a software issue or a hardware issue and if there is any way to find out and fix the problem.
I've been having the same issue actually. In the bottom right corner, anyway.
Like when I go to attach a picture to a text message, I have to hit the text box first so the paperclip button is out of the corner. I've also had some trouble unlocking with the camera or touching it from the Navbar, where it's positioned in the bottom right corner. :/

I have similar issues with that when my phone is plugged in. And my acreen often locks up kinda with the last image on the screen being the only thing you see until you reset.

I don't think I've had an image stuck to my screen yet. I have this problem even if it isn't plugged in, which is really strange. Not sure why it's so unresponsive, takes several tries to unlock/select.
And kudos for being in Portland too! :good:
Have either of you found a consistent way around the problem or a way to resolve it? Also are you running the phone in the base state that you bought it in or is it rooted / unlocked?
I just tested my phone, by opening the browser to google.com (mostly white background), all around the edge of the screen. And I can see feedback animations for all my touches around the edge of the screen. So I don't think there is any problem with the touch digitizer, at least on my phone. Phone is still stock, rooted and TWRP.
I have touch animation when I touch the bottom right corner on the lockscreen, but it doesn't always drag/ripple out. Sometimes it acts like I've pulled my finger off so I have to do it again.
Rooted, unlocked, stock.
After touch responsiveness got increasingly worse i contacted AT&T and they are sending me a free replacement since these issues seem to be covered under the one year warranty. Just throwing that out there in case anyone else gets as frustrated with the problem as I have and cant find a permanent fix.
I can confirm that I am having very similar problems... it is getting worse.
I am stock rooted and unlocked.
It is getting harder and harder to press things, fling actions (like scrolling through a list) hardly move a thing.
I just installed a multitouch visualizer and whenever I have 2 fingers on the screen and then go to cross them (start with fingers in opposite corners, move one up and the other down until they pass each other in the middle) it actually loses both fingers and then sometimes only one pops up again on the screen.
Can anybody try an app like this Play Store Link.
I've had similar results with 2 other multitouch testers.
Is it my phone, or everybody's?
----EDIT-----
Figured I would install the Base ROM (7.0>7.3) because either it was a software issue and maybe the ROM would fix it, of it was a hardware issue (I really didn't think it should be acting like that) and I would try to get it replaced.
The Base ROM fixed my issue (for now, fingers crossed).
Now using a multitouch visualizer, the contact points are always seen, even when the fingers cross.
Don't know what caused it, but it was software (at least for me).
----EDIT----
Just plugged in the charger again... now the touchscreen is acting strange again... this phone does strange things when plugged in...
so i left my s6 edge wireless charging and then the next day phone had vertical pink/green lines in the the middle of the screen, odd thing is that if i press the front camera part it change the lines color, also display wont show at startup, and sleep/wake problem, sometimes have to wake/sleep couple of time to make display works, so, is it hardware related or could be software?, i did a factory reset, havn't tried flashing or checking if there is a loose conection but i want a second opinion. any idea?

I had the same issue as you did but it was a pink line that ran down from the notification light. I had to press the notification light to get it to go away. I took my phone to a samsung repair shop near me and they fixed it for free and i had my phone back the next day. Ou might have to use warranty claim if you dont have a. Samsung service center near you.

Its not software related. The problem is the display. Maybe a connector problem or the display itself. If u are in warranty u should get the screen (or phone) replaced. Got the problem myself a few months ago, a pink line on the right side of the edge screen. I do repairs for a living so it wasn't hard for me. The connector of the display is on the right top backside. (seen from the front lying on its back)
So when u press top right u probably press also on the connector a little. It solved my problems for a few min/hours or sometimes days.... But in the end it keeps coming back so i replaced the screen and all problems are gone.
Alright, thanks guys !
