White dot on both screens. - Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi, I am using FOLD 2 for just few days and I have this very strange issue. After few hours of working I have this white dot showing on the screen, its not a screen pixel issue as this white dot is traveling from one small screen to the big one, also if I turn the screen horizontaly the dot is traveling with it. Yesterday the dot showed even in two places on top, after the phone restart the dot is gone for some time and than its shows again until the restart. I have not idea what is this..any ideas?
here is the picture of the dot, its exactly in the middle top, doesnt matter which screen I use...

Is it at same place on both screens

yes

bottom edge yellow tint

I didn't notice it until today when I was browsing webpages with white background and noticed a yellow tint at the bottom edge of the screen, where the black border and n button is located. I'm no screen expert and I don't really know what caused the issue. I know that this area is where the nook gets hot when I have wifi turned on and if this is what's causing the yellow tint then I'm screwed because... I use wifi on this a lot.
How are your screens?
My NT screen is fine, and I use WiFi almost all of the time. Yours is under warranty, right? So you're not "screwed." Get it checked out at a B&N store and replaced if necessary.
Same
I seem to have the same issue but only right above where the hard "n" button is. Unfortunately I am in Canada and bought it while I was visiting my parents in the states. Maybe they will let me ship it back. I'll call them up and find out.
And I'm in the Philippines. Let us know how it goes. Best of luck!

WTF??? Screen burn in??

I was trying out a compass app on my LGV10. The app has white lettering, etc and a black back ground. The phone needed to be charged so I just plugged it in and set it down. I didn't pick it up again till the morning. I killed the app and then noticed very lightly I could still see the image. You you can see a very,very faint image of the compass app. I tried turning it off for a couple hrs but it is still there.
I"ve never heard of LCD screen burn in; but there it is.
Anyone dealt with this before??

yes, with time the screen get "ghost images" but they dissapear if you turn off the screen for 5/10 minuts. Mine is getting that kind of "ghost images" from apps i opened and mine is on the sides they get a yellowish tint in both sides and some in the top of screen, nothing to be scared of...isnt burn in...but overheating of the screen.
Use BLUE LIGHT FILTER app (on play store has icon with a phone with blue screen) and set "filter opacity 15%" and "screen dimmer 50%" on color BLACK. I read that in 3d v10 of my model (h962) and ghost images never happen again with min o max brightness in every use.

Reply; thanks for the info guys.
Day 2 and I cannot see the latent image from the compass app anymore.
Not exploring the woods or anything, but I need to install a TV antenna on the house and have to aim it dead on 115* from true north.
That you cannot truly ascertain without a compass. From standing in my yard, what seemed like true north to me was actually NNE.

Wow that worked. Thank you. The trick seems to be to use black color. Been trying with red filters but did not work. I only need to set black filter to 5% only and all ghosting is gone. This keeps brightness high. I had some pretty horrible yellow permanent ghosting on edges of screen that appeared very fast. Now not at all.

I will have to try this. I cracked my screen on my V10 and picked up a bootloop one on eBay that still had a perfect screen. Did the swap of my motherboard to the new screen housing. All went fine except I noticed excessive ghosting on the bootlooped display.

Please report back if it works for you too.
I used this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ne.hardyinfinity.bluelightfilter.free
All my screen needs is a black filter set to 3% (might even less, have not tried lower) opacity and I never see the heavy yellow ghosting that came after minutes on edges and top of screen before in the same places. As a result my whole display is now cooler and cleaner most of the time because the ghosting was pretty severe when the phone was used for a while.

Pixel flicker when turning on screen ? Video Below. Return?

Wondering if any of you have a flickering of your screen when you press the power button or turn on the device. I notice in the top left of the device some pixels light up before an image is shown when turning on the screen. I'm still within the return window so I wouldn't want the device to have display issues down the line.

I have the S1 and have never see one part of the display light up before the rest, have you tested the screen,
Download a screen test app and go though the colors in a dark room, you can normally increase/decrease the brightness just by dragging your finger up and down the screen, check for any inconsistencies in the screen, a low brightness light gray shows up a lot of problems.

I returned that unit to Costco and bought another. Didn't want to risk it going bad later.

Galaxy Note 4 is Working, but the screen is black

My phone was working fine when I went to bed last night. I laid it on my night stand and this morning I noticed I couldn't get the screen to light up. The blue LED was blinking like I had messages. The Menu and Back buttons light up when I press them, and I can even hear when someone is calling me, but because the screen will not light up, I can't answer. The phone screen is in near perfect condition, not a scratch or crack on it and I also have a cheap protective screen over it.
Hoping it was just a glitch, I removed the battery and held the power button for about 45 seconds and powered it back on. Same thing, black screen during the entire boot process, no logos or anything. I also tried to boot it in safe mode with same results. There is only one time that the screen shows any signs of life and it only happens when I first power it on. In the top left corner for a split second, where the usual "Bootloader is unlocked" message appears, it displays a small rectangle of colored artifacts inside that small message area.
I assume the LCD went out, but I'm concerned it could also be related to the GPU or other hardware, and so don't want to spend a lot of money buying a LCD if it's something else. I can still connect it to the PC, so I'm hoping someone knows how I can test the hardware from the PC, or at least recommend something. Right now the phone is ringing and I have no idea who it is...this sucks!
Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910V

My screen stopped showing black color

I left my note 20 under my pillow while charging and next morning it was hot. The screen flickered for a little bit and the screen became a lot brighter. black color is now showing as brownish and every other dark color is also very bright. Even when restarting the phone, the black background with the Samsung logo in the middle is still brown. I can't see no black color. What happened and how can I fix it?

you probably overheated the screen and made the phone unable to breathe especially while charging
