change a cpl of kernel's and see for the same issue

When it's viewed at angle, it has a green tint. If you look straight onto it, it doesn't have it. It's inherent nature of SGS2's Super AMOLED Plus display. I doubt it can be tweaked by software means.

well i m on fluxi kernel.. Can i set the color calibration to remove this tint effect?

[Q] Found dead/faulty pixel on screen of sk17a

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.

Androids do not have such problems. At least never happened any problems with graphic drivers.

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.

SE Live With Walkman Screen Flicker

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.
It shouldn't damage your phone.

[Q] Auto white balance not working

I don't understand what's wrong with the camera of this thing. I tried stock and custom roms but always when opening the camera, the white balance is really weird, and it won't automatically correct it. The picture is purple and on the lower left corner there are 4 green spots where the picture is green.
Choosing the white balance manually fixes this but it still bugs me a lot and I would like to know if there is a fix for this.
Thanks in advance!!

Green tint for Split second while turn the screen on

I get a green tint for split second after pushing the power button. When the screen is off and then turned on I see my screen with green tint for a split second sometimes more. Happens every time and dont know what the hell it is? Is the screen going bad? Its like a flash of light green tint for a second then the screen returns to normal? Any body heard of this? Any fix?

Dude make only 1 thread for your problems. No need for 2.
It's image retention. I have it too but it's not a big deal. It's not permanent.
As for GPS, try rebooting your phone, or if you use a case, try without it, maybe the case is blocking the compass.

You can fix it unless you go get this fixed. if you're still in warranty, try to get it replaced.
Does backlight bleed really annoy you??? it's only visible in the dark at high brightness...

:laugh::laugh::laugh: you can try it. image retention can be solved with a blue light filter, light bleeding can only be fixed by replacing the screen. Both are common issues though with IPS LCD screens. (Notebook has it, tablet has it and phone as well)
The only thing I would really be bothered with is GPS. This made me send my G5 to LG and hopefully getting it fixed now.

Yes , BLF does solve omage retention. With that in mind, if you are rooted, use CF.Lumen, it works much better.

I had it pretty bad especially with Google maps. The only thing I can really recommend is using cf lumen and there use a color temperature of 6200k in root mode.

You can even make the temperature back to 6600k and just change the shade to 0.102, this would solve the image retention permanently, i never had any image retention ever since.
I don't have image retention neither using blue light filter.

I've noticed that since the update to Nougat, sometimes CF.Lumen doesn't work and I need to run the app manually. Have you experienced it?
With blue screen filter from sisco mobile I still get image retention at software buttons.
I have it at 15% black color.
At the top image retention disappeared but a matter bottom no..
