Hi. I am facing a strange issue with my device's display colour. When I launch the camera app and after closing it, the red colour on the screen semms faded out. But the gallery images are fine. The issue solves after a regular reboot but starts after launching and closing the default camera application. I took screenshots of the both state. They looked same.
My device is Symphony Xplorer Z5 Pro (local Chinese phone from Bangladesh) with Android 5.1 and an AMOLED display. Please help me getting rid of the issue. Thanks in advance.
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.
Just bought a Redmi note 8 pro and there are many issues while using fb messenger and instagram face filters/masks.
Either the filter appears to be black and empty or the whole frame of front camera is bugged on the upper right corner of the application's screen and the 3D filter/mask remains at the center of the screen with a black backround. Could it be an opengl issue?
Doesn't seem to fix with device reboot or application reinstall.
Is there a way to post screenshots? As a new user i am not able to post outside links.
I have a little problem with Redmi Note 9 Pro that my dad have.
For some unknown reason stock camera app started acting weirdly. For example after taking photo it freezes for a moment and then crashes but the photo is properly saved and you can open it in the gallery app.
What is more you cannot switch to macro or wide lens cause that makes app to freeze.
I tried to wipe app data from application settings menu and I updated the phone to MIUI 12 hoping that this would solve the problem.
Unfortunately nothing changed.
Does anyone know a way to reinstall this application hopefully without rooting or unlocking phone?
Thanks
Something I found in my armor x5 is the camera does what you state when screen rotation is active. Try disabling screen rotation, this SHOULD fix the prob.

I tried this solution and sadly it doesn't help.
Hello all,
This has been an issue since I got the pixel 6 at launch. When playing videos, the shadows appear washed out. It appears to be some sort of gamma shift or HDR tone mapping issue. This happens when in google photos, chrome browser, imgur, even other apps. (youtube is fine).
I've confirmed in person this happens to other pixels one of which was pixel 6 pro.
The issue is recorded here:
I tried changing the color setup under display options in system settings, turning off H265 in camera settings, booting into safe mode, forcing 60hz refresh rate, but it still washes out the videos.
This does not happen with videos shot by other phones, for example my wife's iPhone shot video then sent it over to me and the gamma shift does not happen...
Strange thing is, in Chrome while playing the video, as soon as I swipe up from the bottom to open the recent apps, the video jumps back to normal as seen here:

I reported this to google, and their chat support to me to fully nuke my phone to factory....
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, and could other Pixel 6 users verify it's happening on their devices as well ?
Thank you

I seldom shoot video with phones and usually don't like to reference reviews. But from what you described Dxomark's summary about video performance is looking to be spot-on.
Google Pixel 6 Camera review: An outstanding performer in its segment - DXOMARK
The Google Pixel 6 camera displayed an outstanding performanc and is currently the best option for photographers who prefer smaller devices.

My experience with dark objects in still photos has been somewhat similar. Recently I couldn't get enough detail photographing black camera bodies I'm selling online. Even with direct light from a daylight LED lamp I ended up using night mode. Every speck of dust showed up which wasn't ideal either.
Over all, though, I like the Pixel 6 camera.

Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm having the same issue... though it's not for every video, just in certain programs/websites.
Cheers.
I've been able to remedy this in chrome by turning off HW Overlays in Developer Options.
It's still an issue in Google Photos.

Sorry if I didin't understand it at first, the toggle to disable HW Overlays in the developer options will always turn off again, at least in Pixel 6, so that's what confused me

Huh it stays on on note 10 . In that case i am not shure how u can keep it on. Can u elaborate on when it turn itself off back again?
Weird, after I turn it on, I can go to any other screen on the phone, if I come back the toggle it´s off again, maybe it´s a bug on my end, here´s the example
