Is the screen ripple normal with light presses? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I'm pressing my fingers on the screen, I can see a clear and quite bad screen ripple... Is this the lifting problem that people are talking about?
Thanks

If you mean by pushing on the edge of the screen then yes that is result of the screen lift.

Every nexus 7 I have had has the screen lift and all of them have the ripples effect, mostly on the left side

Yeah it's mainly on the corners, with the screen lift am I supposed to be able to physically see the screen lifting round the corners?
Thanks for the fast replies btw

something weird

go to the home screen and have your finger sliding to the next home screen but do it at an angle and do it toward the bottom of the screen and move your finger down to the four buttons and you can flip homescreens with your finger on the buttons . still detects your finger moving when its not even touching the the screen really ,

its designed like that. Technically the touch sensitive part of the screen goes all the way down past the buttons.

Nexus 7 Defects (Software or Hardware)

Well as many of you posted you had flawless Nexus I pulled the trigger but for my horror I got a Lemon.
First I thought I had only the screen lift but after two weeks It have started to develop Screen Flicker and the slightest screen bleed in the right corner... a black pixel line when I open a hard task or its charging something.... the screen not responding and the ghosting :banghead: to my other horror I can't return it cause my father bought it to me and I'm in Mexico so no return but I wanted to know what are Software related and what are hardware related

So the Screen Separation is Hardware as the Screen Bleed
But the flicker, the sudden line that I just see like one a day and the ghosting that goes away with a reboot are all hardware?! The HTC titan had the ghosting too and with an update it went away

Well actually the screen flicker can be fixed by running a script. Look for the thread that says screen washout out fix. It will disable the nvidia smart dimmer. And the screen lift can be fixed' Google it . And not sure what the this "ghosting" is.

Well first I don't know if when going from homescreen to homescreen and seeing the icons going from side to side it looks like it leaves a trace behind that disappears after a couple of milliseconds and I don't know if its just an animation or ghosting.....and second is after being in my social homescreen the white parts stay onscreen in the background until I reboot but that only happened once and never again

IIRC you used the clamp and heat method to try and reactivate the glue. Best of luck, but that approach has been temporary for most users.
And you telling him to Google it would almost certainly lead to him fiddling with the screws, which is even less effective than the clamping.
Here is the only fix known to work. It's a delicate procedure and I wouldn't recommend it unless your lift is severe, GalaxyDev.
Sorry for your troubles, but hopefully you can see past these flaws and enjoy the tablet as is. I'm sure this device is a rare sight in Mexico.
The only reason why I considered that is because my screen lift is so minor, its like a hair lifted so my guess is the adhesive needs rebonding.

Colored dot grid

Today I noticed that there is a lighted grid within the display which can only be seen when in sunlight, even when phone is sleeping (screen off) is this normal, has anyone else seen it?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
This is indeed normal: I have it and others too. I don't know the exact cause, but I thought it had to do with the "touch layer" which is placed in the glass.
It's just weird that it is visible when screen is off

The capacative layer needs metal to know where your finger is. Metal reflects sunlight.

nexus 4 screen defected?????

When my phone is off and i look at it from the an angle i can see a pattern on the screen like scare boxes also when i look at it on the sun i can see little dots going from the top to the bottom of my screen.

Its fine thats the digitizer

Bent screen

No I do not own a flex
Anyway when I put it screen down on a flat surface and touch the corners it starts rocking.
How to describe better.
One finger on left upper, one on the right down corner and touching once up once down. (Or the opposite corners, has to be diagonal)
If you have the same issue, your should feel it.
It does not distort the screen, but not sure it won't get worse in the future.
Anyone else encountered this?

I have this but it's because I manually replaced my screen and did not have something to put in so t wouldn't rock but since I use a case that covers the bezel it's not a problem

In my case it's the glass that's bent. Not like it's lifted, but deformed. Not sure how it really happened. Maybe the original quick window cover... or just having it in my pants

Maybe heat? or probably sat on it that made one side of the screen cave in? lol
Always have it in the front more like the heat... btw I would not even notice it.. just by accident I tapped one corner and it was not touching the table...
