Hey guys, i just recently got the transformer and i was wiping fingerprints off with a microfibre cloth when I noticed two perfect circles near the center of the screen. The screen was off and they were outlined in black. Anyone knowwhat im talking about? Is thisnormal or a defect? Thanks
I have never seen these circles. Did someone use your tablet as a coaster.
I don't have any on mine. Can you see them while the screen is on? What revision is your hardware?
Lol noone used it as a coaster and i cant see them when the screen is on. How so i check revsion? Thanks

They are eyes, Big Brother is watching... Sounds like a defect, can you take a picture and post it?
i wish I could but all I see in the picture is my own reflection. I'm checking out the tf101 on display at best buy as I'm writing this but it doesn't seem to have them, then again maybe they only appear in direct sunlight. Hmmm
Do you see them after you blink? Have you looked at the sun lately? LOL
Checked ours and don't have this.
I'm exchanging it for another, I've got a few dead pixels and some light bleed as well so I might as well

After hearing this news about the new screens coming to the nexus one it got me thinking. Will i be able to purchase an after market nexus one SLCD and install it on my "OLD" Nexus one, if not why?
We probably won't know until someone actually gets their hands on a Nexus with the SLCD and decides to disassemble it to make sure everything is the same to know if it's possible. But screen replacement is always pretty risky so unless you know what you're doing, I wouldn't try it anyways.
To me the question is why would you even want LCD over amoled. Amoled is better. They are only using LCD for lack of supply.
yeah i would never try doing that. i will get someone to do it for me and have them be responsible for any mistakes they make!
yeah i doubt anyone will tare down their N1 unless they break it...

well my reason is i like being able to see my screen in the morning while on the bus. Its really about give or take in this situation. Its nice having a really nice screen with the deep blacks at night but at the end of the day i want my screen to be visible with out seeing my reflection while I'm out side..

exactly this guys knows what im talking about!
but if there was a way to kinda provide a type filter on the screen that would help reduce the reflectiveness of the screen and not by Anti Glare, glare is not the problem its mainly reflections
Super-AMOLED displays are AMOLED displays with an integrated touch function..

Ah, ok, that makes more sense. I don't know if it would help at all as I haven't tried miself, but reflected light is mostly polarized, maybe getting light sunglasses with polarized lenses would improve readability?
I just tried that, it doesn't seem to work, what almost sort of worked was putting my sun glasses on the screen and that improved the visibility very considerably. I dont know the UV rating for my glasses but only down side is that my screen a tone darker with the phone set on "auto".

Well, at the end of the day the night starts, so the AMOLED screen in your N1 will do it just fine!
Lol lol you got me there but can someone have a answer for my filter question ?
Hello Guys. I have a SGS for two days now and is great.
But whem i see the screen when it's turned off and it is under heavy sunlight, i see some gray horizontal lines in te middle of de screen.
There are very tiny but there are there. And you only see them under direct sunlight when the screen it's turned off.
Should i worry or i it's normal?
For the record, i never drop it or hit it with anything.
I would appreciate a quick answer to know if i have to return it or not.
Hi! I have a Galaxy too and i also have a horizontal lines and also it looks like the glass is scratched from inside. But that is only visible from direct sunlight and not in any other condition. I say this is pretty normal so you dont have to worry about that you just enjoy your super duper phone)).
Thanks for the answer.
But it doesn't look like like scratched glass, because there is one line that is wide than the other(a bit more) and perfectly rectangular.
Do they form a large rectangle shape? It's the motherboard or something visible through the screen, you can see it on any SGS. Nothing to worry about.
I asked the same thing on another forum and was told this.
I have the line too, but it ain't straight. Under heavy sunlight it's visible on a working screen as well. Don't know if this is normal.

theres only one that has a ractangle shape, the others two are only lines
it could be the motherboard. i didn't think it about it.
Thank you very much for the answer.
Anybody else?
Incredible, i looked for this in direct sunlight and with a high lumen lamp but didn´t se any line or something. Now i used my 21 LED Lamp with very powerfull blue light and now i can clearly see a big box with strange lines on the top. Unfortunetley i cannot explain this XD. I will try to make a photo with my Cam and post them.
Ok, my cam cannot make a photo, the light of the ledlamp ist too powerfull and now the batteries from the cam are out of power... But it really looks like the motherboard of the phone. Just strange that i can´t see this in direct sunlight as others.
Someone in this forum says that is the motherboard through the screen.
Today i watched more closely and there a vertical line in the left side of the screen that connects with the other two horizontal line.
It has the form of a circuit. but i cannot confirm this. i need people who confirm this.
It is only visible in direct sunlight when the screen is off. When the screen is on, the lines dissapears. Even in sunlight.
I didnt look if my screen have some lines or not when turned off.. i dont care at all.. im just wonder why u call it as "screen issue" if u dont have problem with your screen when turned on at all..
Why people keep searching for some faults or some pathetic details.. and not enjoying their lovely device
These threads and finds just might fool more people and they will start searching for it aswell since they were happy at all..
just my opinion..
I' am really enjoying this phone, i am a former user of a N96, So believe me that i'am really enjoying my SGS.
Please don't get me wrong. I don't say that the phone has a problem. It's only a detail that caught my eye. And i want to know if it's normal. Thats all.
This is perfectly normal. rest assured.
Thank you guys for the feedback.
I'am still a bit nervous with this phone. I worked nearly three months to buy it. Paid $900 bucks for him (Unlocked). I live in Argentina and things here a bit overpriced.
So. you now understand the reason of so much questioning? And Jumpiness?
Damn dude was it worth it?

Every single cent.
If you had had a n96, you'd understand.
Double post
Sorry for the couble it's just to confirm that is normal on every SGS.
I searched it on google and find this:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s/140297-galaxy-s-transparent-screen.html
It results to be normal. It's just a circuit or a type of connector. Look the last picture.
Hi everyone just today i noticed what i think is a small backlight bleed. Its at the top of the screen on the edge and you can only see it on fully black baground. I will try and post pics later tonight. Can anyone please check there phone on black screen in a dark room all around the edges especially at the top and let me know if this is normal. What i notice is you have too look carefuly and its better seen from further distance then right in your face. Thats why im wondering if it is light bleed at all.

Edit: Here is an image i drew onto pink Arc for some reason lol (sorry i coudnlt caputre it) but it will give you an idea of what i mean.
Notice the top how it goes a liitle more in that is what i am talking bout.
Anyone not scared to try this? Lol its not a big deal just wondering, but i think all lcds have it to some degree. So if someone is wiling to check i will really apreciate it.
Sent from my LT15a using XDA App
nope don't see any bleeding. but if you check the ipad2 now that's a light leak )
oh yeahh thats not what i am talking about That is huuuge light bleed. The one i see is only on the edge and it kind of trembles it is almost like a white shadowbut only goes a couple milimeters on the screen. Its hard to explain lol i feel like an idiot. I will try to picture it.
Edit: I think my OCD is kicking in for no reason lol its barely there its probably the way it is with any lcd.
Hey guys, I just got my Iconia a couple days ago, and out of the box I noticed, but i was not sure if it was a problem. When the screen is turned off, can you guys see like braids/patterns on the screen? It is like two triangles with their tips put together and placed into columns.
that is the digitizer or w/e. Makes the touch screen work. Nothing to worry about.

Oh ok, thanks, bc I have a BB PB as well, and it did not have it. And I have owned a TF, iPad 2, and TP and it did not have any of this design on the screen, so I was just wondering... It is not much of a bother, minus watching a movie in daylight, but nothing serious.
its actually visible in all devices in the right light and at the right angle

Oh ok, because this is the first time I have seen it, and it is really easy to spot, just put it at a slight angle i the sunlight and it is easily seen. Is this the same with you guy's Iconia?
yes, visible on any touchscreen device. it's the digitizer. sometimes there are dots, sometimes there are triangles or whatever. depends in the digitizer.

Hello, I recently bought a nexus 7 and in general I'm pretty pleased with it. However, just today which is about 4days after purchase I realized that my screen has little diamonds that were visible at a certain angle and most obvious when the screen is off. My question is whether this behavior is normal and whether I should take it for repair since it's still under warranty. It's not rooted and there isn't a screen protector for more information. Thanks.
Edit : diamonds are 5mm each

Under certain light conditions there appears to be marks in the glass and it's all diamonds tesselated together. A photo doesn't show anything but ill be uploading one in a while
I've never noticed anything like that.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Doesn't show any of the diamond-ing I saw but here it is. I could only see it when there were many lights around and only when viewing at an certain angle.
Edit : Forgot attachment
i dont think images will allow us to see the problem, maybe even point them out with a stylus ,you could use a phone to make a video panning around views, to clearly display the problem and youtube it here :good:
yes this is normal..... no worries.. new screens usually have this
you only get to see them under certain life conditions and I'm pretty sure these will fade away with wear & tear.. I used to see them when I bought my N7.... not anymore today... enjoy them

Alright. Thanks for the info.
I think you're just seeing the digitizer.. Pretty normal to see it under certain conditions. Mainly with the screen off though. You shouldnt really see anything with the screen on.
