PUBG screen issue on S9+ - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Why is there a gap between the actual screen & the controls of the game? Any fix? I checked with another friend of mine & same issue persists.
This makes it difficult to switch from other devices as controls are shifted by a considerable margin.

Started getting the same issue from about a month back. Tried quite a few things, but nothing seems to work. Just got used to it.
Still is very annoying though.

When I switch from OnePlus 6 to S9+ it keeps bugging me & affects the gameplay.

No one else?

I thought maybe it's happening to my device only. Can't even find a fix anywhere

That's because you might be frequently changing the display resolution. Keep it in 1080 or 2k and restart the phone

Nope, this isn't the cause. I never manually change resolution and I rarely use power saving.

i have the same problem than i solved the problem with change the resolution of my samsung s9+ from FHD+ to WQHD+ Vice Versa. If your first try is failed, close the pubg and try again to change resolution back to FHD+ or WQHD+. sometimes i try to change the resolution twice than the problem solved sometimes once.

Autofocus/Manual Focus Issues

Recently, in all camera apps my G5's auto focus doesn't work properly and keeps the scene blurry. It sometimes works for a second and then turns back blurry. The manual focus used to be able to work but now, it doesn't change anything. Any tips?
Sounds like a possible hardware issue. Have you dropped or done anything to the phone ?

Yeah I've had a few minor drops but nothing too serious.

[HELP] Screen leftovers from other apps, (lcd image burn)?

So recently my phone has ghost images, leftovers from other apps on the screen. (eg. The top bar showing up ghostly when it shouldn't, controls of a game showing up on home screen after closing the game in a ghostly effect) It is not a software problem. I know it goes away on its own after some time, but it's very annoying and its freaking me out. Anyone else got this problem? How do I fix/prevent it
i got it to.not know hot to fix it
Very disappointed from xperia screen
I have also the same problem and it looks like a hardware issue. It's very noticeable when you increase the screen brightness. Notification bar icons/time appear all time against any dark background. Very annoying, even cheap phones don't have that problem.
Example I found online -> lnv.i.lithium.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/79782iF19656F933D1C741

I read that certain types of screen cause it, and it cannot be fixed except wait, which sucks, but I can't say for sure
Screenshots showing problem
I took these photos from my phone to show you how the screen retention problem looks like in Sony Xperia X.

Yes, thats exactly my problem. I noticed that it gets worse if the device is overheating
Sorry for the bump, but is any else having the same issue?
Mine seems to be getting worse and worse over time, to a point that it can literally retain half way up the display.
I use to have the same issue with my iPad Mini Retina until I took it in for a replacement and it hasn't happened since (2 years ago).
Any experiences with Sony replacing the display under warranty?
Thanks,

Not really. After buying the phone, I used it for two months without having this problem, then rooted, so no warranty

It started creeping in after 3 months for me.
Oh and it seems like that I have full screen retention now....

Wow, yours got on the next level. Mine isnt so bad. Actually , I rarely have the problem lately. Do you run poison 7.1? That particurar ROM I was using was problematic, causing the phone to overheat and the lcd problem was present all the time
Mine is completely stock and unrooted.
Sent from my Sony Xperia X F5121 using Tapatalk
running completely stock & unrooted. Mine has this problem too. However, the image disappear after 10-20 minutes :|
I had this problem on my unit as well. Tried to adjust the white balance and it seems the issue was barely noticeable on the status and navigation bars.
The good thing is that screen retention falls under manufacturing defect and you will get a new screen.
Mine got replaced with a brand, spanking new one, but the issue has started to creep in just a little bit after a few months, but its very faint.

pubg on poco

i have noticed while playing that when i make very minute touches the screen doesnt even move a bit

Yes mate, you are true, even i got the same issue this is very well known malfunction of Poco f1, probably low quality digitizer being used in the phone.

My best guess is that it won't be solved, not at least with any software udpate. All they could do is to minimize its effect to our eyes.

Question [Bug Tracking] Official Android 13 Update - Worth installing? Major issues? Feedback welcome!

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.

My friend have the edge 30 pro, after update he had the same issue.
I told him to completely reset the phone after update, but he didn't do it.

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.

The wifi and bluetooth pairing with the smartwatch might explain the battery drain, makes sense.
Thanks for the screenshot. But I'm seeing that your play store security updates are stuck to last year and the security patches for the OS are from february. Do they don't get updated with Android 13?

Hi. The security patch is only from february 2023 on A13.

Bruh, this is so stupid! So the security patch is basically rolled back one month. This doesn't make sense. Thanks for the insight.
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?

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.

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

M33 5G Exynos 1280 FPS Drops

Hello!
I'm facing a really weird problem on my Samsung Galaxy M33 5G, on games it seem that every 2 seconds or so the game lags a bit then just goes back to 60fps, it's weird because in game where the quality is low this doesn't happen, it only happens when there are some shadows and the quality is a bit good.
I have tried playing Sky Children of Light and I have the same problem, 60fps and stutters every 2 seconds, it doesn't matter if I'm moving or not, it just keeps doing that.
I have searched about it and some people say it's about the Game Optimizing Service and Game Booster, I have tried to change the settings for it, but the problem is always there.
I have attached a picture of the problem using GPUWatch, as you can see it fluctuates every 2 seconds or so.
Can you guys tell me anything that would help me fix this problem? Thank you!

Sorry, bad phone
There is no fix, only threads like this.
Except that's completely wrong.
My phone doesn't heat up, as I said in the post, it just stutters every couple seconds, I have removed Game Booster using ADB and it's working perfectly now, thank you!
