Please indicate on the poll if have been affected by the green tint issuse and which type of screen you have - Use the Device Info HW app
There is already a discussion open, so this is purely for a poll and then post Screen brand / Production number / days when you noticed
Eg. LG 18-10-51 Noticed after 4 days
Hopefully we can start to get a picture of production numbers that are unaffected and if BOE is better than LG

Hi everyone,
Finally got my brand new phone from Walmart Wireless in the mail yesterday. Got a heck of a deal during Thanksgiving. The only problem is that this phone has some light bleed at the bottom right hand corner along with 2 small specks which I thoght was dirt but is probably dead pixels. The dead pixels can only been seen on a black screen for some reason and doesn't show up when the screen is red, blue or green. The phone isn't even activiated it and I'm debating whether I should return this or just live with it. What do you all think? To be honest, the screen is so bright on this phone, the only time I can tell that there is a defect is when it's on 100% brightness against a black screen. I'm just worried that my replacement could be worse? What is everyone else seeing?

Yes, it seems that there is screen bleed along the bottom edge of the screen. Which I can deal with, but alongside the right hand side, I find it a little annoying when watching movies in the dark. Anyways, they're sending out another one to me and I guess I'll keep the better of the two...
I noticed in videos of EU Honor 7 (and my phone) that there is light leak along bottom half of left and right sides.
Has anyone got a phone without this? Wondering now if they used the Eu introductory offer to get rid of these displays as videos I've seen of the Chinese version don't seem to have as noticeable light bleed.
Oh no, I can now see it on mine, never noticed before... Life ruined!
EU version as well.
Can't see any on mine

No light bleed here.
EU version.

Just noticed now, a stuck green pixel near top left of display when watching a movie. Not impressed.
Anyone else can test for any stuck pixels, wondering if its worth returning it. If every display has minor faults then I guess its not worth it.
I have two Honor 7 smartphones from Amazon germany.
Both of them EU Version.
Both of them have light bleed

Display bleeding on the left and right lower end of the panel.
Going to send it back.
I hate it if I buy a new device, unbox it and boot and the first thing I see is a bleeding display.

I have horrifically bad screen burn that occurs after minutes, even seconds of bright objects being on the screen. It seems it only became this severe after 2-3 months of having my LG G5. It would be mostly tolerable during the day, but I primarily use my phone after I'm off work at midnight - dim light and lower phone settings make the screen burn even more aggressive in appearance.
Furthermore, I've had backlight bleeding on the top edge and bottom right corner, along with slight bright patches since day 1. This past week I also picked up a Cardboard VR headset only to find I have a dead pixel smack in the center of view on bright scenes, and more than a dozen bright pixels on black backgrounds (several are the super-bright green subpixels.)
Any one of these display issues I could've tolerated, but together it's grown outrageous. I also have faulty GPS and a loose chin connection on the bottom right. This is a Sprint G5 LS992 with a production date of January 25, 2017... so a late model certainly isn't a guarantee of better quality hardware - not for me at least.
Guys, just send it on warranty, they'll replace your entire screen (so it's a good way to loose scratches of your screen-they replace the whole panel, LCD and glass combined). Mine got replaced after 6 months of use and now after 5 with new screen I don't have any problems with it.

Unfortunately I don't believe that is even an option for me any more.
I got this G5 as an "upgrade" for a G Flex 2 that LGE Alabama at one point claimed would take 2.5 to 3 months to repair (not "7-10 business days" as the RMA email stated.) After several hours of calls and complaints online, I thought I had a satisfactory resolution 2 months after sending my phone in.
Then all of the issues in my last post started popping up.
Normally a phone is covered 1 year from date of manufacture (again, mine is January 25, 2017 making it only 5 months old) BUT both my service paperwork and the LGE representative on phone said I am only warranted 90 days after receiving the G5 in March; noting here that my G Flex 2 had no hardware defects - only hardbricked firmware on accident due to LG Anti-Rollback.
I feel now that I was purposely screwed over with a rushed, refurbished-yet-still-defective unit by LGE Alabama. I already fed them cash for the G Flex 2 being an Out-Of-Warranty repair job - I don't want to double down my losses paying them again in less than half a year.
So did LG say something about this issue ? They know thousands of people are having this problem .. didn't they say anything atleast

UPDATE:
OK, now it's a widespread issue.
It looks like it could be the glue drying or something else.
Because the issue appears after some days of usage.
Btw, I've returned my phone
-------------------------
I bought the Mate 20 Pro the 18th of October, at first the display looked fine but it's been some days already that I'm noticing a yellow/green tint on the right side of the display that reminds me so much to the problem that happened with the Nexus 4 (it was because of the glue [https://www.pocketables.com/images/....com/images/2012/12/nexus-4-yellow-screen.jpg) ).
And it's getting worse.
It's not just me, another user on XDA and another user on Reddit also said that are having the same issue.
If it's the glue, even if you don't notice the issue right now on your device, it might appear in the next days, as it happened to me.
These are my pictures:
[https://imgur.com/a/6doz3ZI](https://imgur.com/a/6doz3ZI)
What do you think?
I'll go and return my phone for another one this Monday. And if the new one has the same problem I'll ask for a refund
UPDATE:
More things I've noticed:
After playing a burn in fix video, the way that this issue looks is different, it changes.
Here I took some pictures of the display with a black background:
https://imgur.com/a/RVscvY9
NEWEST UPDATE:
There seem to be two different issues, or maybe one. Maybe it's related with the display controller

is there a way to find out if your unit has a BOE or LG display? All of the reviewers said the screen was amazing but LG screens had a lot of complaints on the Pixel

Then it will probably be the glue
if its glue, its a manufacture faulty batch (lets hope). This even happened years ago with Samsung phones due to poor QA (and for Samsung that's huge).
While highly unlikely, if you happen to find its software related or to do with w/display driver, post it in the EMUI/software problem/fault thread so you can let others know. Also, be sure to get in touch with Huawei and keep us posted on your results.
EDIT 1/11: From what I can read on the first 30-40 pages its moistly screens with LG and not BOE. Its in multiple regions, so let's way a few more weeks and see if the newer BOE batches or wave 2 of the shipments fixes the issue...

I have similar problem. The brighter shade can be visible on both sides ( on the right side little bit more expressive) and at notch edges. I'm returning phone tommorow . Sucha a shame :/
I have the same problems
Following this. I also have the same issue. Not sure though if it's to do with the screen refractions on the curved glass. Will wait to see what happens with others. What apps are people using to test?

I thought that. I've never had a curved like this. I put a black wallpaper on and it's fine. Put a colour one on and you see it
A great way to tell is if you have a white chrome window and then pull the notification shade down it shows all around the notch. I think it's something to do with greys on low light levels?
Yeah greys at low light seem to vary in colour a little, if it's really bad keep swapping the phone. I had to change my Nexus 6P made by Huawei 3 times before I got a good screen. Mine is slightly lighter on the bottom third but it's hardly noticeable so I'm going to stick with it.

Mine got worse today. Used a lot today though
Who can shares his expérience with the mate 20 pro coming with gluegate issue and green edges (lg screen) does it get worse over time ? Do we can minimise risk and how much time as per your expérience the phone will stand? Got my new mate 20 pro as a gift without any chance of replacemnt with warranty
Never experienced green edge gluegate problem despite the fact that I have an LG display, bought my phone at launch and my phone is part of the batch people on XDA claimed repeatedly was 100% defective.
You see green edges in your display when exactly? In certain apps? All apps? Specific conditions?

In low light when the brightness is at 0 in a grey background the left side is yes greeny and im afraid that it will extend and be unusable as maby video shown in youtube.
Just once brightness increased problem disappear
I got mine just after launch and there is a slight green hue around the edges under the usual conditions (LG panel) but it was never bad enough for me to want to return it. It's not got any worse since I had it (nearly 6 months now.)
If you've only just got yours then I'd imagine you'll be okay as they were supposed to have sorted the issue in later batches.
Had mine since launch, only really shows the problem under very dark conditions. Try taking a picture with another phone, it really does highlight green screen issues. I'm going to return mine this week.
I've had mine for about two weeks and don't have the screen issue as I believe the screen manufacturer was changed from LG to another at some point.
