Light Bleed on top - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

Hi guys!
Anybody noticed some Light Bleed effect on top of Pixel 5 like mine?
I noticed it when i was using the phone in a dark room...
Can this get "bigger" after some time? Should i ask for replacing the screen?
Thx for your help!

Hi, I see same effect but I think it's not a screen issue. If you pull down the notification Bar or up for the apps it's black. Same when I use nova launcher, the same black wallpaper I use don't show any bleeding that area. Maybe related to to status Bar in Google launcher

Late reply but i think @michathecat is right. I think there is a effect called "top shadow" (there is also "bottom shadow") that makes this effect. Try installing CPL (Customized Pixel Launcher) from play store (free) and turn those shadows off and you should be good with the "bleed".

[Q] Problem with transparency

Hi everyone,
I'm currently having an issue with transparent widgets. Miui music, Poweramp widget, Fancy Home (miui clock), they all look bad while *NOT* scrolling (through Homescreens). I assume it has something to do with sharpness adjustment or something like that. (. No matter which ROM or Kernel I use, the problem persists (even after wipes), and my friend is also experiencing this problem on his device (also an I9000).
As it is quite hard to explain, here are 2 screenshots:
This one was taken while scrolling, so it did not have the time to adjust the sharpness or whatever:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This one was taken after the self-adjustment:
Notice the round-shaped shadow under the weather icon and that the reflections became striped. Though the clock's panel is smoother, the transparent parts bug me more.
Anyone knows why this is happening and how can be fixed?
Thanks!

Yellow background im some apps

Hey guys. I have yellow background in some apps ex. Chrome, Opera, cards in Google Now, etc. But in settings app or buttons or status bar icons have normal white color. Is it possible to fix or no?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think it's a software thing. Type *#*#7378423#*#* and go to Service Tests and Display... That way you can check the color reproduction from your phone.
Hopefully, Sony will solve that issue in future updates.
Look on these photos:

[Q] Problem With the screen

The touch works well but there are gradient horizontal lines on the screen in the colors brown, blue and black.
Sometimes i see a little bit something (still with the lines), but then it turns again in to just gradient horizontal lines.
(The screen is not broken.)
Thanks.

Here someone had a similar problem. It seem's to be a hardware failure, if your sceen looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So you should probably backup your stuff, flash a stock firmware (if you are on a custom rom) and send it to samsung.
sounds like screen burn in to me, AMOLED displays can suffer with screen burn in which will leave lines or keyboard texts etc left burnt into the screen.

[Q] Bottom Home screen Icons shifted

Hi..
I am wondering if anyone can help me with this, the bottom row of icons that comes by default on the phone and are supposed to be fixed (dialer, Google folder, play store and messaging) have somehow came to be exactly behind the Home back and recent apps icons, where as they are supposed to be slightly above them. It is really irritating, I can't seem to be able to change their location.
Why dont you for example change launcher(Nova) and then go in Nova settings-desktop-desktop grid and change number of rows to 4 or 5.

Thanks !! But what is the reason
Hi..
Thanks for the advice, nova launcher is just fine and did it, but it is still strange that the default launcher behaved like this. It would be interesting to know what is the reason.

Display issue

Hi everyone!
I have a tab S2 9,7 2015 wifi and i bought it recently.When I have the tablet in portrait everything it's ok with the display.
When i turn it in landscape i have an issue with the display.It's more visible at night with low lights and low brightness.Since i see it once,now i can see it all the time.
It' like i can see the leds behind the screen.
It's not visible with any app from google play that tests the screen.Only with this blue colour and white or grey etc.
I send it to samsung service and they send it me back and said to me that the screen has no issues.
What can i do?It's very annoying...

I have 2 sm-t813, they got the same effect in landscape and low brightness, one of the tablet got the screen replaced (cracked) and the new screen have also lines... It seems to be a normal behavior of amoled screens.
Thank you very much for the response!
