Strange spot on the top left corner of the display - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. Does any body notice the spot from One`s display in the below picture ?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/psxjbf5g3o9d9la/Screenshot_2013-06-29-18-54-04.png

hi.
How did you get the picture, if it was a screen shot, then it`s not a faulty display, maybe it`s a dodgy notification bar icon, have you tried a restart.
I have checked that wallpaper on my one and their is no mark on mine.
John.

HI. Yes, it was a screecnshot. So nothing to affraid for.
No, I did not restart the phone. Just cleared the notification that screenshow was captured and the icon disappeared from it. It make sense if it is a faulty display to not be captured.
Thank you very much ! I think this can be locked.

I though i had a stuck white pixel on my notification bar, so i took a screen-shot and it was in the photo, so it look like it is fault in the photo, or the only star i can see.
It`s an htc one stock wallpaper try it and see.

I believe you are looking at the sensor grids.... it's not a defect every Z has it, so no worries

The + looking grid thing? I believe those are the touch sensors. Every phone has them like the poster before said it.

What do you do before this problem occur?
Sent from my Asus Google Nexus 7 using XDA Premium
If you choose a 16:9 resolution (9M for example) the full screen is used, if you choose a 4:3 resolution (like 12M) you'll have a black bar.

Nexus 6 Amoled Display Artifacts [THREAD CLOSED]

I've had my Nexus for only 2 days and I've noticed some artifacts on my display. I've included screenshots using Screen Test app which show some horizontal lines on my display and also vertical lines but these are more vivid on the device itself they don't seem to show so much in the screenshots. These lines are visible regardless of what I use as wallpaper. Anyone else having this issue or is this normal?? Will this clear up over time or do I need to send it in for an RMA??

LMFAO....
Ok, so because you are obviously clueless about the distinction between hardware and software, any visual artifact caused by the AMOLED display **CAN NOT** appear on a screenshot.
Those lines you are seeing are due to the DITHERING algorithm used to generate the gradient that you are displaying. Gradient = the progression from white to black through multiple degrees of gray. This is a function of SOFTWARE, not hardware. RMA will do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for this.
I understand there are different gradients, this is different, what I'm seeing is lines gradient or not but they are obvious even when not using the screen test app, they are visible everywhere at anytime doesn't matter what background or wallpaper I'm using. There are vertical lines also that look like they are baked into the screen.
Well then send it for an RMA? i dont see what your purpose of this post was, to ask if its normal to have baked in horizontal lines? its not.
i dont see any lines on my display, so i would sent it back for a replacement. i guess i was one of the lucky few with a device with no issues, the only issue i found was that i did not get any lollipop with the device, see here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/missing-lollipop-nexus-6-t3046877

Hey man thanks for your reply, my question is really aiming at anyone else with the same issue. I didn't think it was right, I guess I was just hoping that it would resolve itself somehow but obviously not. As for lollipop, yeah my device came with it, why what did you get on yours, KitKat???

So if its happening on all wallpapers / screens and you're convinced its not dithering, could you get a pure whiff background and upload both the screenshot and a photograph with a camera of the issue please? All I see is the dithering so far

I definitely cant see anything on the screenshot. As for the camera photos, its tricky because they are a little pixelated, probably due to the contrast.

I'll see if I can get a better camera shot. Thanks for taking the time and having a look. Overall the display is beautiful, just concerned about the vertical lines I see on the display when using my phone

I think it might be a good idea to go to an optometrist to make sure that the lines aren't caused by your eyes.
Your going to have these vertical lines had them on all amoled screens. But if your seeing them on say like your home screen and other places I'd get a replacement. But if you only see them say with just a white or gray screen I wouldn't worry about it. If you want you can try this app out on Google play... Amoled burn in fixer.. Good day
Thanks for your comments guys, I believe I do have an issue with my display therefore will proceed with a DOA replacement. Cheers

It looks like a burn in but it dissapears in the app drawer and is visible on a screenshot. Got it like a month or so ago. Only visible against a black background.
Any ideas what it could be?

It would be much easier to spot any problem with your display with a uniform dark background. The current black background with non uniform white patches is a bad choice.
Here is my own. It cant be a burn in as its visible in the screenshot and disaperes if i watch a video, look in my gallery ect. Only visible on homescreen.

Not screen burn, software issue.
Set the same wallpaper with a live wallpaper app like this one

So you have to download ANOTHER app, just to mask an issue, which can be truly fixed by using a different wallpaper? That makes no sense.

What? "Another app" implys you've downloaded one in the first place
I think your mistaken in thinking his wallpaper has the gradient actually in the image, it does not. It happens with any black wallpaper !
This has been happening as long as I can remember on my Sammy devices... It does not effect live wallpapers therefore you set your wallpaper with a live wallpaper app that lets you choose your own image.
That's all

Sorry if I misunderstood. You linked an app to download, soci assumed you were saying he needed to download an app to his device.
I have a Galaxy S7 Edge, two S8 pluses, and the Note8 I'm using right now. I actually have a black wallpaper on it now, and no distortion or funny light.
As I said it's his wallpaper.

OP hope you see the fix and no need to worry about your screen being damaged. Cya
Wait.
Are they talking about the gradient looking thing at the top of the screen? That's normal for the statusbar to do that. There's an app called L Speed (for rooted devices) that lets you disable it since it's a RAM flag that creates that effect.
If it was screen burn-in, we wouldn't be able to see it in a screenshot, lol (which they do, but because it's software related, baked into the phone's settings).

Note 8 bug?

Hi i have an note 8 SM-N950U ( T-Mobile ) and the icons on the top are small, and the bottom part is like pushed, it feels kinda small and weird, i hope the images are clear
Icons small on the wifi-bar

Somehow i changed it to 360 and stays the same, you see the first image with black part ? under the square?, in my view it feels like the screen is not full completed, that's why i said the icons are small

Download Screen Tester from the app store then use the GRAY #8080 screen then take a pic please. That tests the screen unifromity etc so will show better.

You mean simalar to the screen being fitted a bit too high. I think I understand. Mine is a bit too low. on the gray 8080 using Display tester I think the top of my screen is a bit too low, yours seems to be opposite of mine perhaps.

I downloaded Display Tester on mine using gray #8080 and noticed perhaps the top part of my screen is similar to the bottom of your screen. So mine is probably opposite of yours. Probably the glass black seal or whatever they use is slightly up on yours and down on mine.

It kinda sucks and annoying , i believe it's from firmware? did you manage to fix yours?
I see other variants and they seem just fine, you saw the print of the screenshot, it displays full screen, idk why
