it's a problem with the screen.
It's called 'screen burning or image ghosting'
When a static image is displayed on a screen for too long, the image will become a ghost and will show on the screen, no matter what you are viewing.
It's more common in oled screens than LCD.
Since you said you just bought it, I'll advise you to return it.
Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII
I am on OMEGA 44.4. After prolonged use like playing games, browsing, charging and listening to music etc. screen on the top turns turns blackish and if i restart it is back to normal and this happens only on the home screen and menu screen and works fine on rest of the other screens.
If screen is damaged why doesn't it happen on the other screens too why only the home and menu screens ?
Please let me know if there is a fix. Thanks in advance.
use SEARCH next time, it's been asked and answered numerous times.

Seems like some people have this issue due to cases with magnets in them. Either from that or them magnetizing one of the screws on the back of the phone that makes the phone think you have the S-View type case on and closed. Another thing to try is to go to Settings > My Device > Accessory > check Automatic Unlock.
Hey guys, I got my phone last Saturday and have been playing around with it ever since.
I noticed that I had the night clock bug (whole screen is lit up) and as far as I know it's already a confirmed software bug. What I also noticed though was that my lock screen is also lit up. I'm using a pure black wallpaper which works well when the phone is unlocked (appears pure black) but the black is lit up when the lock screen is shown. It's almost like there's backlight bleeding. In the home screen and lock screen preview though it shows that it should be pure black
Here are screenshots of the "bug". I'm actually thinking it's a software bug since it was captured by the screenshot. http://imgur.com/a/p5maP (Take note the the blacks on the first image is different from the other 3)
Was wondering if this bug is related to the night clock bug or a defect with my unit.
If anyone is willing to help, kindly try changing your wallpaper to a solid black color and check if the blacks on the home screen and lock screen is different.
Thanks! (I have 4 days left until I won't be abe to replace my unit so I'm trying to make sure everything's good)

They're referring to the Night Clock alone. I have that problem as well as a lockscreen problem. Haven't seen anyone reporting if they have the lock screen problem so I'm trying to figure out if it's a software glitch or a bug with my unit.
Basically the lock screen preview when applying a new wallpaper shows that the lock screen should have super amoled blacks but when I lock the phone the black is lit up.

If there's any consolation I experienced this very problem. Were you using fingerprint to unlock? I hadn't seen it because I had swipe to unlock.
I still haven't figured out how to fix it.

That's normal. This happens because the lock screen puts a slight filter on your wallpaper. It de-saturates the image. You can try with a solid red color, it might be easier to see.

Not, really. This only happens when you have Fingerprints/Pattern set up as your Screen lock type.
If you set it to Swipe, with the water droplet effect, there's no "filter."
Someone found kind of a solution to this, but it didn't work for me: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...t-rid-dark-filter-lock-screen-wallpapers.html

Yeah it's clearly a bug, but OP thought it might be a defect of his phone. I was just reassuring OP that the problem exists in my phone as well. Thanks for that link. I did try the solution they proposed but it didn't work for me either...
Solution not working...plz another fix?
I have the same bug on my Galaxy J5 (super amoled), I use pin to unlock it. It is pretty annoying. I use the same black picture for both lock screen and background pic, and after unlocking the phone, black backlight turns off. Swipe to unlock solves the problem, but I have to take one of the disadvantages : either backlight or not locked phone.
Download "klwp live wallpaper maker" from playstore and make a all black wallpaper . Save it go to settings ---> background/wallpaper, set KLWP as lockscreen and wallpaper/background.
Not solved? are u using xposed? if so, download Bright Lockscreen and see if this helps.
I might have an issue with my phone. I just wanted to check if anyone had the same problem.
When i have a white screen i get that grey beam coming from the second screen down on the white.
Is that normal or the screen is messed up ?
Also, on the second screen, when i get a notification that has a white background, it seems a little black.

I've noticed the same problem. I think it's due to the secondary screen led not being as brightly lit as the main one. It should look better when the second screen is active.
