NEW Side Screen Bleed on some apps - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

I'm noticing quite a lot of screen bleed and color shift in my Poco F1 from the last few days. I have owned this device for more than a month now and earlier there was nothing but now after the new chrome update I see color shift on both sides but not like complete screen. Some bottom portion and the chin doesn't have color shift and in the Snapchat app when we click the profile icon, in that screen there is color shift in similar way but in that the top part excluding the notch area doesn't have color shift. I'll add photos later as I don't have other phone to take pictures.
Can anyone confirm the same thing ??
Should I go to service center ??

Display issue: blacks appear blue

I am kind of just curious about this, as I have searched the net and have found no one who has experienced the same problem.
I have a Blu Touch Book 7.0 plus, and plan on making do with it until the right phablet comes along at the right price. About a week ago I had it in my pocket as I helped to unload some heavier packages from a truck. It took some impact while in my pocket, I didn't think it took any meaningful impact. But then I turned on the screen, and everything seemed to have a blue tint. On closer examination - it didn't have a blue tint per se, but black was being displayed as blue; opaque black was opaque blue, semi-transparent blacks and darker grays and what not resulted in a blue tint. But whites and most colors displayed perfectly fine - i.e. for example, the Google home page looked completely normal. The display damage is evident even on boot, as soon as the manufacturer logo pops up before the bootanimation.
My workaround for the time being is to use a screen filter that places a semi-transparent white image over the screen, which gets rid of any hints of opaque black with about 48% transparency. It results in faint colors of course, but the colors are at least accurate with no blue tint, and the screen looks almost completely normal from the certain viewing anglea. Interestingly - the absence of opaque black seems to result in a lighter load for either the cpu or the gpu; previously the phone ran very smooth but if I had Dolphin (or another resource consuming app) open, and turned the screen off without pulling up my home page first, the screen would not always turn back on right away, either I would have to long press the power button or wait up to several seconds. Now, regardless of what I have open, I can toggle the screen on and off without lag.
So is this damage to the gpu? The screen itself? Does anybody suggest a better work-around?
Appreciate it.

Full Screen Options Disabled for Pubg

The poco F1 has a notch issue. At first PUBG Mobile would be shown in full screen mode. The not h would cut through a piece of the image, however this allowed screen recordings to be full screen also. After the last miui10 update full screen has been disabled for pubg. Now the notch doesn't cut through the image however the black bar that is shows where the notch is supposed be to be, remains in all screen recordings. For me this is worse than having the notch cut through the image as it makes screen recordings look sub-par. Is there any fix for this issue?
It's in custom rooms also. The worst part is there is and option to move the buttons so that the notch is accommodated and the game can take the full screen. But even if you enable you still get a straight line near the notch.

Display issue ?

Hi ,
I noticed an issue with the display of my Nokia 7.1
the edges of the display look cropped, I mean that text or photos look cut off.
1- the screenshot in the first photo from facebook app shows obvious cropping on the left side (the word Sony)
2-second screenshot from eBay app, see the word lens is missing the letter S
3-third screenshot from Instagram stories, both emoticons are cropped.
4-the last photo shows a screenshot on the left with cropped green leaf,
and on the right, a screenshot sent to me from the account owner the leaf is not as cropped as what I see .
my display size in display setting is on Default !
I contacted Nokia support through the app in the phone, they asked me to do a soft reset, reset app preferences.
nothing solved the issue,
any suggestion, are you facing the same issue ?
My understanding is that this is caused by the aspect ratio (this phone is 18:9). A lot of apps have not been updated on Android to support this natively, which is why you see the cut off edges on images in things like Instagram or Snapchat.
I agree fully with Ansago. I see this in eBay and Instagram (not to the extremes your screenshots show but it is there) and I was also under the impression that it is the long form factor of the screen not playing well with cell padding in the app designs. I tried to alter a lot of settings like display size and keyboard height but nothing was changing the text wrap cut off when I found a few examples. I think because it is limited to so few apps that it is on the app programmers to fix the issue.

Shadow Screen Effect in MIUI 11.05

The recently open apps or any app with light grey or black background show in the other app, Like it I open chrome of some times then I close chrome now I'm in now youtube app I can find everything in YouTube app it the screen color turn into grey or I try to find it I can notice it. After 10-15 min it disappears. There is no screen bleeding issue on my phone. I can literally see my WhatsApp in the background while going through the play store.
I can't attach a screenshot because the shadow effect is not visible in the screenshot. any screen with dark color works fine.
miui 11.05 the problem appears. After Sometime the problem is gone... I gave my poco to the service center after he flashed it the problem is coming. I am not sure if they changed my screen because it was working fine for miui 10 as well as with Miui 11 also.
I raised a complaint in Mi they say they need to change the screen and it will cost around INR 7000(100$). That's quite a lot.
If anyone has a solution to this problem then please help me in that. :crying:
You are not the only one my friend.
Just around the past 20 days I've seen what resembles "Screen Burn In". The image of the previous app remains as a "ghost" in the background. This is especially visible if you play a game like PUBG or CoD Mobile and then you switch to an app which has white background. Normally this issue is seen only on OLED but oddly enough it's showing on Poco which is LCD.
Thankfully though, the ghosting effect disappears after a while. If it does not disappear, you can use any app that can cycle the RGB colors. It is not a permanent fix.
Poco cut corners especially with the display. Issues from rejected touch to ghost touch to now this image retention problem.

i didn't have that problem it just starts occurring after i gave it to the service center
I have same issue.. specifically after high brightness...
That's a hardware issue and should have been replaced while in warranty. I have Pocophone F1 for over a year now (bought November 2018) but didn't have any issue. My usage is splitscreen with youtube at the top and any app at the bottom, screen is ON most of the time during my 8 hrs of work time with max continuous screen ON of 4 to 6 hours with brightness level averaging at around 60% using Auto. NO ghosting, image retention that happened on mine. Your IPS display is probably defective.

Display artifacts and noise at low brightness and dark grey colors

Hello. I have a question regarding the display of dark grey at low brightness. Noticed this using the google web page in dark mode before going to sleep with all other lights dimmed or off.
I also noticed some burnt in segments of the screen like nav bar and status bar at the conditions described above.
I am attaching the dark grey filled image I use to distinguish the problem. Can you please test it with your S21 in dark conditions and fullscreen and tell me if you see same noise and smudge-like artifacts?
I must say I tried to go to BestBuy and Target to compare it to other S21 by myself, but obviously it didn't work because there are too many light sources in the store and it's too bright to see that.
I also tried to make a photo of what I am seeing in completely dark room, but obviously it's less informative compared to human eye.
Thank you.

Maybe I am not very discerning but screenshot_* shows no anomalies on my S21. The file_000 however does have a visual imperfection. It's the file itself and not the screen because the "smudgy" area moves as I scroll and grows when I zoom. So it's an artifact of the file. It does have some subtle grey coloring.

The File_000 has anomalies because it's a photo of a screen producing artifacts, when the Screenshot is just filled grey and should be clean of any artifacts on a healthy screen. I must say when I open the Screenshot using gallery and in fullscreen, and try to move it left or right until previous or next image border shows in the gallery, I can see the artifacts and smudges remain static because it's screen defect but the image (screenshot) is clear of any imperfections. Thank you for trying though.
It is normal since a few years, Xiaomi since the Mi 8 and has it Oneplus since the 8 series and now Samsung.
It has something to do with the newer generation panels.
