I love the feature as I don't have a nearby clock. However, I noticed that the screen actually takes on a very dark grey shade when in Night Clock mode as opposed to being pure black.
Is this a normal function? Seems silly to have it on at all sucking power when leaving it black would use almost no power at all for the time display.

I have noticed this too. I know that on my Note Edge the screen is completely off and just the night click is on. I hopeasy this is fixed in an update.

This is your 6 Edge, right? I'll do a backup and restore after a reset. Though I want to test it on another edge before I have to go through the hassle of restoring that much data.

Yes it is my s6 edge.
I also don't feel like wiping and restoring everything, is there no app in the application manager that integrates night clock that we can wipe data from, or do we have to wipe the entire phone. If so, I'll probably just wait for the next bug fix update to see if it fixes itself in the process.

I don't have this issue with the update, and haven't even restarted the phone since I did the update. Wonder why it is affecting some people and not others.
No idea, I don't have a problem with the info ticker (it leaves the rest of the screen off) but the night clock makes the entire screen a shade of gray. I don't use the feature enough for me to warrant a complete wipe to fix it, but I do hope its something that will be corrected in an update.

Don't bother. I wiped and it didn't resolve the issue. I'm hoping a future update fixes it, but, like you I'm not going to get worked up over it. It's a minor feature so I can totally live without it.
Mine is grey as well, what sort of update did you do after a wipe that corrected it?
Same here--gray screen with the clock on. I'm sure it's just a bug, as AMOLED screens don't use back lights and light pixels individually.

Are you sure? I'm not able to see it unless I'm in a very dark room.
I have the same issues (grey background), so annoying! I mean, it's an AMOLED screen, it should only turn the clock pixels on. Otherwise huge battery drain/screen burn/unnecessary light... Cmon Samsung...
Same here. It is one of my pet peeves with the phone. I use it in a very dark room next to my bed and it stays lit. If you are not in a dark room it seems black but it is not. So if you are checking this, go into a VERY DARK room. Otherwise, you won't see the issue. I have the AT&T model which has not had any OTA so wiping mine won't help. Nothing to apply after.
Mine doesn't keep any other part of the screen on for night clock or information stream. Try info stream because some others said that turns the screen off properly but night clock does not. Both of them work properly on my device and many others, as intended. If yours doesn't, it's a bug. Try factory reset and then exchange phone if that doesn't fix it.

That's how mine is, off like it should be for info stream (which I don't use) and stays on grey for night clock (which I would like to use). Factory reset didn't affect it.

Happening to mine too - though exchanging it doesn't make much sense - it's a software issue not a hardware one...

people, has anyone of you noticed white vertical lines that appear for a fraction of a second when you power on the device? it happens right before lock screen appears... best could be seen in a dark... seems like there is a problem with screen initialization on a driver level...
Could someone check this issue?

if it is really a problem of display controller low-level driver - it might cause some serious problems as time passes... total screen failure, for instance... as i remember from past cell phones - it was the first sign of upcoming screen death...
but i think that in our case - this is just a minor driver issue in screen initialization process... at least i believe so
I have this problem with the screen as well! and it's annoying to see those vertical lines whenever I wake up the screen.
sometime i can see the lines with "CRT Screen Off" mod, but without they dont appear
Try to do a backup in CW recovery and flash a stock rom.
It can be the CRT effect or any other custom rom issue.
It would be great to know if the problem is due to your custom rom or not.
Hey, sorry to bring this up again, but I'm having the same problem, and it's really bothering me. If there's any way of fixing it, please let me know, I just uploaded the stock ICS 4.0.3 for my device, and it started to show.
mine too has this
Mine also has this issue. only visible in the dark
yeah, same here. I thought i was the only one having this
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Noticed this straight away when I got my new phone and it was there before I flashed a custom anything
***Bezeke HOLO LPQ base running bits stuff from everywhere ***
I also have this issue
One large, white vertical line. Clearly visible in all lighting conditions
However sometimes (rarely) it doesn't do it.
I have compared this to a black galaxy s2 (mines white) which doesn't suffer from this issue. It actually seems to delay the screen on / unlock time
The black loads the lockscreen at almost the exact same time as the white displays the lines.
I've been putting off returning it under warranty as I can't do without it..
Its like a jolt of power that hits the screen
***Bezeke HOLO LPQ base running bits stuff from everywhere ***
yeah, i recently got a phone off someone, and it's been bothering me since, there's no way of fixing it? i hope it hasn't caused anyone trouble, i recently switched to iPhone to this phone and i'm absolutely loving it besides the white flash

If you mean the minute, almost "patterned" grey lines then yes. Every Galaxy S2 has theses.
But bright white, clearly visible line/s which delay the screen-on process.. No, not every Galaxy S2 has it.
Especially if they don't always appear
i don't think its an issue with the phone i had it running an old version of omega rom the latest 5.1 does'nt have that problem.
I've had my TFP for about three days and I'm getting heavy screen tearing. It shuts down the entire left third of my screen. Every thing goes blank and then I get flickering.
What's the solution to this?
try a reboot or soft reset
Hello,
I've had very similar issue with my screen. Every now and again when I wake my TFP it looks as though it's running in 16-bit color mode. Once unlocked the screen returns to normal.
I've also experienced the screen taring as described above. As with the other issue things usually place them selves after a few seconds. Once I had to reboot to return the screen to normal.
Scary as hell the first time it happened, though I had fried my prime....
Sadly I have not had the chance to look into why this happens or find a fix for it but as it doesn't keep the tablet from working correct it not very high on my priority list.

This.
Here is a helpful video for this procedure
Where did you buy your prime from? Reason I ask if this doesn't fix the problem you may consider the option of going back and exchanging for another
unit.
I did the cold boot and have done a complete factory re-set twice. Neither fixed the problem! Terribly disappointing! I really do like this device but the screen tearing makes it almost unusable!
Would a new software update potentially fix this? I got mine from Best Buy and have a week left to return it. There are none in the stores locally.

Just an idea, does it also show on a screenshot? Maybe if it does it can be fixed with a update, otherwise it is best to return it because then it most likely is hardware I guess.
Here's a screen shot of my problem. It doesn't happen if I just try a screen shoot still picutre.

i've seen this stuff happening with my prime also, but after reboot it was solved..
if it's not disappearing after a reboot i would say the gpu\soc is having troubles (hardware issue)
First of all, that isn't a screen shot. That is video of the screen. A screen shot is taken by the device and saved to an image file so it can be uploaded. You may have something wrong with your screen, which a SCREEN shot would rule out or in.

I've seen that problem on several primes. Usually viewing Youtube video's causes this. I've also seen the taskbar "micro jumping" while this is occuring.

Do you have a Micro-HDMI to HDMI cable(Or whatever it is the Prime uses)?
They are about $6-$10 shipped online, but if you have one of these already plug it into a TV or something. If the artifacting still happens, it's the GPU. If it doesn't though, it's probably a faulty cable or circuitry.
Turn off the ASUS 'quick settings'. Also unmount the SD card.
I Believe I've Got It Fixed!
Last night I did a complete wipe of my TFP. I turned it off and then held the volume button down while pressing the power button. I got the tiny text and the two icons. I read the instruction on how to do a wipe, it's very specific and you have to confirm you want to do this. It then wiped all my data and did a cold boot.
When my home screen came back, there was no screen tearing or flickering. I changed
the background and added some widgets to the home screen and brought up the quick menu, but still no screen tearing or flickering
I had to input my Google account and everything else. For some reason, my Google Play Store account doesn't automatically download every one of my apps. So I have been selectively downloading and installing each app and widget. So far, so good. No screen problems.
I took snapshots of my previous screens so I can re-build them from scratch but this time I'll only put one icon or widget on each screen at a time and test for tearing or flickering.
Crossing my fingers that I got this fixed.
My new G5 has the status bar burn in, really bothered has I only have like 1 week with it. Any soulution to this

I have the G5,and I have backlight bleed along with icon burn in. I called,but the only thing LG would do is fix my phone and it would take a month. I can not do that,I need my phone for work. Why can't I just get a replacement ? From what I've been reading its a fairly common defect with the G5. Any advice on how to deal with them ?

My burn-In started today, usually the status bar was Burning, In a couple of hours now it is starting to burn anything that stays a couple of minutes on screen.
Now it has Status bar along with Nav Bar and anything that stays on screen. This is starting to piss me off.
Plus it fades away if I leave the phone intact but has soon has I start using it the problem persists.
What does screen burn mean, please?
AhmedYD said:

Means that after certain time of having an app open or given the situation status bar or Nav bar starts to have ghosting or clear images of something that you haved opened on your phone. You can see this images with a complete grey image if they are soft. If they are burning really bad you can see them from any dark colors that you have on your screen.

Can anyone show me an example of how text notifications and others will work with always on when you receive it, I am used to having a notification light and I want to make sure this isn't a deal breaker for me.
if you use always on display no notification led appared. icons of the notification appears in the top of clock
In terms of "alerting" you to the phone, definitely not as good as led lights, because from distance it looks the same whether you have a notification or not, and nothing really pops out at you when you get new notification. But I still prefer it because you can see all the notifications you have by simply looking at the screen without turning it on or pressing anything
Will AoD cause issues with screen burn in? Does it stay in the same place or does it move around? And if it moves around, does it move to random locations or does it stay in the same exact locations?

Stays in same spot - but of course notification icons and clock constantly changing it slightly. I dont think its an issue due to how dim it is. There is a setting to make it bright, but it warns of battery drain. I have no need to make it bright though.

Lol yea to be honest when I first saw it in a different spot it didn't even occur to me that it might be a thing to prevent burn ins.

Hi, I just got the notification that the Android 13 update is ready for my phone. But I'm not really sure if it's worth to go through with the update. I wouldn't want to wait another 6 months for stupid fixes needed. If anyone was brave enough to install it let me know how your experience has been so far. Thanks!
CONFIRMED BUGS FOUND BY USERS AFTER THE UPDATE:
Screen flickering when using auto refresh rate. The screen quickly changes between 120hz and lower causing flickering especially on darker tones (from grey to black). This is almost certain to happen, be ready if you choose to go through with the update!
Increased contrast. Screen constrast has been increased requiring increased brightness for outdoor visibility. Poor viewing performance in bright day light and overall darker hues at lower brightness levels
Charging issues. Phones are not charging correctly when turned on, constantly disconnecting. Charging when the phone is off is the only solution. Wireless charging is also affected and unusable due to overheating that stops the phone from chaeging
Moto Secure folder locked. Moto Secure folders cause the phone to crash and can't be unlocked anymore. Do not use Moto Secure folders to avoid data loss!
Ready For broken. If you try to connect your smartphone to the TV no output is displayed
HDR video playback is broken. When trying to play back HDR video from any app it shows as SDR. No brightness increase as it was in Android 12.
POSSIBLE ISSUES:
Overall performance degradation. Some users are experiencing slow downs and an increased heat output from the device
Audio playback not working. Some users are reporting audio not working after boot. Startup sound works as usual
Increased battery consumption
Connectivity issues might appear during calls or mobile data usage. Reports are not clear about specific conditions in which these issue appears
Screen flashes white when waking the device through the fingerprint reader
Fingerprint reader breaks and might show up as not working in the built in diagnostic software
MISSING FEATURES AFTER THE UPDATE:
Dolby app lost the custom EQ setting
WORKAROUNDS:
A device reset might get rid of most of the issues, beside the flashing screen when using auto refresh rate
To fix the auto refresh rate it is possible to lower the maximum refresh rate from 120Hz to 90Hz. Thanks to @mansell68 for posting it in the thread. Download the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22 and change the parameter "peak_refresh_value" to 90. This will solve the issue for now and let the phone switch between 60 and 90Hz correctly.

I update my edge about 2 days ago and this is the only issue that i found with, just like says on Lenovo's forums I set the refresh rate on 60hz for the moment until we get an update.
@giacomowrc thank you very much for reporting this issue! I knew there would be something wrong with the update. Motorola just doesn't care anymore.
@iOrizon thank you a lot too for reporting back on the issue. So there's no amount of resetting it to factory that would fix this issue?
@MeltingSnowman tbh this issue doesn't affect me so much so I prefer to wait for a fix instead of reset my phone. There is no a mayor issue that force me to do that, for me at least, and in general I think that is a solid update.
I update it yesterday.
Everything is perfect, no issues, 144hz and automatic refresh working.
Very Stanley and fluid.
With all turner on on the night ONLY consumes 6% of battery on 12 hours.
Great job from Motorola.
Waiting for official a13 update.
@giacomowrc @iOrizon @almmpt you might be having two different releases? The one is asking me to update to is T1SH33.35-23-20. Also I think I got one of the first batch of units since I got it soon after launch. So I might be more affected in case they different hardware revisions that act differently depending on the software.
Also 6% on a 12h night is a bit much to be honest. I wish they addressed the incorrect scheduling that kills this phone's battery but doesn't seem to be the case.

I updated a couple of days ago. I feel like the battery drain increased, but maybe it'll bounce back? I definitely like the split data/wifi buttons in the notification - I like turning off unneeded services.
I loved the side bar in 12 and it's still great, but I definitely don't see a reason to give it a permanent on-screen indicator in 13 (the half-transparent bar near the power button). It makes a visual mess if I'm using something that has a scroll bar. Let us turn it off...

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I was concerned that they would make a mess of it and it happens to be the case, adding to the screen flickering an increased battery drain.
So there's no option to disable the indicator and keep the double tap on the power button to make that side bar appear? What a bummer...
P.S. if you don't mind me asking you have no screen flickering right? Did you get an early batch of the phone or a later one? I'm trying to figure out if they changed hardware revisions for the display and that's causing the flickering. Also any weird colour shifts appearing at night? Like having a darker tint at low/lowest brightness settings?

I'm trying to figure out if they changed hardware revisions for the display and that's causing the flickering. Also any weird colour shifts appearing at night? Like having a darker tint at low/lowest brightness settings?

To be fair I hadn't noticed any screen flickering yet, but I keep the refresh rate at 60 Hz.

If you don't mind trying, see if auto refresh is bugged.

I got the phone the moment it was available in EU - a little over a year ago. Didn't notice anything extraordinary when it comes to colors.
Will try adaptive refresh rate for a few days.

Mine's from the same batch.
Thank you for being so helpful, I really appreciate it. I can link you the Lenovo forum's thread where people are reporting the issue, if you happen to experience it aswell.
Finally arrived in India. Downloading now and will update on my experience soon
