So i have a bright (white) pixel on the screen...
It's really visible on BLACK and little visible on BLUE background ( not visible on Red or Green background)
the pixel's visibility does change when i change the screen brightness
so is this a dead or stuck pixel.... how fixable is it?
Sounds like a dead pixel.
Cant be fixed. If there is only one then they wont replace it. You're stuck with it(no pun intended).

I've got one as well but is only really visible above 50% brightness on a dark background. Unfortunately the pixel died about a week after I got my S but I've managed to ignore it most of the time. Having such a high pixel density helps a lot.

yeah i have one too, visible on white screens but also on most of the other colors.
They said that they fix such things only from the 4th pixel
Too bad, I have been through 4 Xperia S phones. Two from yellow tint, one bad battery and my latest which has no issues. None of them have had a dead pixel, so I am surprised to see so many.

Is exactly the same to me, in the top of status bar (touch firmware 6, ABAE and 12w16). I hope to be the first and last ...
On my Xperia U I have one green stuck pixel. It amazes me the Sony quality control check. This is my third SXU. First one 4-5 stuck pixels, second one totaly dead and then this one with stuck pixel again. Sony service center and retailer didn't want to acknowledge the complaint. They told me that one or two defective pixels is acceptable.
as far as all my reading goes, the dead/stuck pixels are always claimed by manufacturers that these are "within specifications" whenever there's 7 or less on screens (TV, monitor)and 4 or less on mobiles (as their screens are small).
on my experience on TV though, you can forget about dead/stuck pixels if there's 7 or less. the most important thing to test is the backlight bleeding, check leakage of light on a black screen (that is screen is on displaying a black image). that is more important than few pixels which you will just neglect in time. the backlight bleeds, this you can never forgive.
now for mobiles, its very rare they would have backlight bleeds. so there, we can focus on the pixels. i think this would be more noticeable on large screen phones (4 inch up) or low pixels per inch density. from hereon, its best to test the phone before paying for it, display a black image for backlight bleed check, then colored and white screens to check on dead/stuck pixel. don't ever pay until you're satisfied. its very hard to return/refund/argue when you paid already and noticed the bad thing. unless it happens after you leave the store. so again, its best to thoroughly check it before paying, and of course fully warrantied.

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.

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.

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.
Hello
I'm new to android and just bought my s3 so forgive me if it's a stupid question
Whenever I watch a movie, there are two or three black spots. I feel like they are dead pixels. It doesn't show up on a white background nor on my ics inspired background but now I notice it a lot during a movie especially if it's a dark colored movie(darkness and all). Are these dead pixels? Is there a display app which I can use to display pure different colors and find out?
Thanks in advance
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA
Spots? If what you are describing look like smears on the screen then no, I think this is an unfortunate defect with oled devices when black is viewed in really dark environments. My phone (not an s3 but uses amoled) exhibits the same problem and my PS Vita shows it very prominently.
A dead pixels is just a pixel (pretty much a dot on the screen) that is stuck in 1 color no matter what's being displayed onscreen.
There's a test screen, just dial *#0*#
However the black spots on dark background when your screen is on minimum brightness (e.g. in darkened rooms) are well-known issues plaguing AMOLED.
There are several threads around here describing them and their possible cause, and at least one developer has announced working on a screen tweak solving this and other typical AMOLED issues.
Yeah it's only noticeable on dark backgrounds with low brightness. I downloaded display tester and ran the dead pixel test and the smears were only noticeable if I looked super hard during a black background, not in blue or red or yellow nor gray. So no dead pixels right ?
Also thank you so much !

If you didn't notice any stuck dots, then your phone is good. As for the smears, pretty much everyone has them. I guess you have to be extremely lucky not to have them (that, or you just haven't noticed them yet so it doesn't bother you). The software solution pointed out above sounds interesting though. Will be watching that
About Dead/Stuck pixel on OLED Device Display
I have a S3 GT-9300 that I use daily, the other day I dropped it on a hard surface and a single shiny green stuck pixel appeared on the bottom left corner of the display, it was a bit of an eye sore really, But I'll share my simple FIX if its a related problem like mine was
I thought if the drop caused it, then a related solution may fix it, so I simple activated display and went to the home page.
then I turned the display facing my palm and held the device carefully at the top end and slapped it several times hard into the palm of my hand where the pixel problem area was. then stuck pixel went away...
I hope this works for you too :good:
Has anyone found dead pixels on their Z2 got mine Saturday and already had it replaced once for this issue and the replacement has the same problem
Cant find any dead pixels on mine. Come to think of it i always got lucky with stuff like that. Not a single dead pixel on any device i ever had.

Sony warranty states that 2 dead pixels are acceptable. Fortunately, my Z2 has none.
I've sent mine back for a replacement with one dead pixel and overheating issue. Bought it last Friday, already gone
I found one dead pixel on mine, but I'm ignoring it for now.
OK. I have one stuck green pixel on the top right. Is this a common thing with xperias? Does anything actually work to fix them? My phone is ULB so I can't get it replaced.

Try display tester pro. No guarantee but worth the try
I had a Z replaced at least a dozen times due to dead pixels, eventually got a Z1 which had none but now it looks like Sony is plagued by them back with the z2
I've tried a few apps to fix it. Its only barely visible when on full brightness with a black background when its close to my eyes. No biggie.
Is this pretty common with Sony Xperias?

Every phone manufacturer suffers from these problems not just sony, I remember it was a common problem with the nexus 5 when it got released, if it's only 1 dead pixel then it should be much of a problem, besides I have heard you need at least 3 dead pixels to get a replacement
do you guys check for dead pixels with a magnifier? As now with these high dpi screens it's pretty hard to identify "one" dead pixel to me... maybe mine has but i don't think i can notice it without a magnifier lol
I only noticed it on the black screen in the dark. It doesn't bother me, it's only one pixel.

Same for me. Only visible on full brightness with black. Its never like that unless I check.
So i swapped my first device kinda wish i hadent as the screen was great.
New device has green tint anything below 10% (this i can just about live with as i just raise brightness). However i recently noticed in direct sunlight yesterday that i can barely see screen and it tints purple (yes i have adaptive brightness on)
Now something really strange in bright sunlight when a shadow casts across a white screen , the shadow against screen is green has anyone else noticed this ......?
.
hard to capture properly as spare phone is an old iphone but the green shadow is from my hand which can be observed above , also notice how the white tints to purple.

Well the green tint below 10% i don't experience with my phone.
The other notion/complaint, is just natural properties of an OLED panel, all my previous phones had the purple in sunlight tint.
probably the brighter sunlight reflecting in one of the physical layers of the panel. Nothing you can get rid off unless you want LCD.

black bar across top i can see but not to bothered about this in all honesty.
Colours have to admit whites are cleaner as a result but rest look to be calibrated identical to last panel.
I think my first panel dated May was the best colours just seemed to wow instantly , everyone who saw phone commented on display in a positive manner.

Here, this is how mine looks like at min brightness: green tint and horizontal bar

Might that be because your device is prior to May on build?
I think it’s pointless replacing now I’ve had three models and it seems inherent now from my own experiences.
Do you use dark mode?
Sorry for the questions just trying to get some feedback
I’m only speculating but my latest device also has it my only device which didn’t have it was built in May , I’m wondering if the early batches had good panels for reviews etc and they cheaped out after that to bring production costs down (speculation as I say) but seen this before with other companies.
One thing I’ve noticed on my latest device is it goes a lot brighter than my previous June model. I’m thinking if I want to keep this device, I’m going to have use light mode which is a shame, if we had root we could just black out all the grey parts like status bar notifications etc and mask issue.

the thing is that I can see this issue only at very low brightness, somewhere below ~15%
and in everyday use the display is perfect (I anyway always use light theme)
but then again it bothers me knowing it is there
on the fence now:
send the Oppo back (already have return label) and try luck again with OP8 Pro (order placed, should be dispatched tomorrow; I sent back my first OP 8 for a refund due to same display issues)
or just live with it, keep Oppo and cancel OP 8 order...

Hey guys,
I havent seen a thread related to display issues. In 2 german Forums I found threads about various issues. From Color fade, to overall greenish tint or flickering screens.
Sadly I am very picky with display stuff and my Display isnt perfect either. I mostly use relatively low brigthness settings (around 30-40%) and on dark mode especially the settings menu has a color fade from dark grey to dark blue. This cant be seen on any other color.
Its easy to see in a dark room, the brighter the room the lesser you will notice.
To easier check: use telegram, with its blueish theme its definitely way stronger fading there...
For a phone thats 649€ in germany thats unacceptable for me. My P5 has a slight warmish but perfectly even colored display and thats what I expect from a P6.
What about you? Can anyone check their display if thats a common issue?
Hi,
i have the same issue, also a device from germany.
Even when booting when everything is white, I always have multiple changes between white and blue in the display.
I'm at work, I try to take a picture when I get home.
Please do, Id really be intersted. Sadly we cant do anything about it...
Anybody have the green ish tint on a black screen issue? Seen a few of those floating around as well...
Similar issues with my screen, also from Germany.
My first OLED screen had been with the Galaxy Note 1 and I hated it for its issues. Always bought devices with LCD screens afterwards.
The Pixel 6 is my first OLED phone since and it is having pretty much the same issues my Note had 10 years ago
Great phone so far (Android is still a bit buggy), but the display is quite a disappointment for me personally, at least for brightness levels below ~50%...
Is it just me or are most of these issues regarding the display coming from Germany? Please can people state what country the device was purchased from if they have this issue
Wow @Abnovitas thats really really bad. Sadly till now everyone seems to be from Germany...
I just finished chatting with Google's support.
They are going to replace the phone, but I'm still waiting for their email with instructions.
But first they walked me through some superficial settings (disabling Dark Mode and some accessibility stuff, like Color Inversion...) and then tried to talk it off as a normal property of OLED displays, which I didn't accept to this extent. But hey, that's probably just Google's policy.
Let's see if this was just bad luck in the OLED lottery.
For me its too difficult to take a picture with dark screen. The color change is slightly less than the picture from @man1acc
But i have problems with white color, it is light grey and i have green stripes on white, this is also very very difficult to make a picture.
Here you can see it a bit, but in real life it is much stronger
This is how my display looks like. Quite disappointing, Google has the same problems for years. But the phone itself is very well built, so maybe I will keep it. Bought the phone in Germany.
I have some rainbow effect which is mostly noticeable on white backgrounds. Hard to capture but found it is quite noticeable with an external light source. In this case my monitor. Anyone else have this or more importantly for a RMA, don't have it?
Pixel 6 when on a black background the right side of the display has a green tint shadow effect kinda worrying as it's not present on the left side and seems to only appear on darker backgrounds like when pull notification tab down or in a app (like xda) with black background very noticeable , or is this just standard now for Oled displays it's not the first phone I've noticed this over the years just curious if any pixel 6 owners see similar or should I get it exchange ? Added pic not sure if shows that well though

Not normal. Each pixel is controlled individually.
It maybe hardware or firmware.
Sounds like the display control matrix wasn't designed properly or is defective.

Unfortunately not true. If it's an issue with the display, a screenshot should never show it. But it can be visible when a picture of it is taken.
My Pixel 6 (right) was bought first day from the Google Store. I'm in the USA. It has a very strong dirty red tint at the bottom and a garish green at the top. Easily visible at 60-70% brightness and lower. Here it is compared to my Pixel 4a (left), shot on my 3a. Haven't had uniformity issues this bad since my OG Pixel (which got replaced).
Waited to chat with a support rep for an hour, chatted for another hour, and have an RMA device ordered and on the way.
Maybe are cross to dark side lol
That was a joke id never cross to the dark side lol and tint only seems visible when in certain dark mode apps and not actually navigating around the phone xda app is worse lol so don't think hardware issue tbh

Waited to chat with a support rep for an hour, chatted for another hour, and have an RMA device ordered and on the way.

Lol, read what I said again
At any rate... that's a dud.
Just for giggles and kicks, see if lowering the refresh rate effects that.

My bad too, it wasn't worded as concise as it could have been.
who of you all has the problem with the green rainbow effect on a white background?
