I got my Nexus 4 yesterday, and just today I've noticed that when in dark screen (locked, or simply the settings page) and outside of the house I see kind of weird black lines on the whole display screen, going form top to bottom making some 3 small square shapes after the others all over the display, can be obviously seen when display facing bright sky outside in almost any angel, but in room light barely can see them with certain angels.
will make a photo of it asap.
p.s. I've never seen a notification light yet on the middle bottom of my device.
Anyone same "problem" with display?
Its the digitizer.

Could you link an example image from goolge or something to make sure it is what I mean? can't seem to find something alike..is this normal?
I can confirm that its the digitizer I too have found that with this phone it is very easy to see even with weak light I see it when I get the right angle. It looks like you described but the vertical lines look more like dots arranged neatly than lines on mine.

Just noticed the same thing on my device. Thought I was tripping out maaaaaaan

Its the digitizer, its normal. I think its because of the "zero gap" technology thing ; the display and the digitizer are right below the glass.
As for the notification light, download Lightflow from the Play Store. Works great.

For the notification LED, make sure you enable the " Pulse notification light" option in Settings->Display. Using Lightflow on top will give you lots of customisation options though.

I am now noticing the same issue in my nexus 4. If it is because of zero gap technology then why it is not there in iPhone 5 and other phones which use this technology?
I also notice that my brother who got the phone some time in November 2012 is not having this issue. I got the phone in Jan 2013...is it issue with only the new lots?
What google and LG are doing to address this issue?

Its the digitizer. I mean seriously why are y'all complaining about that, its normal.

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.
I have a rev 11 nexus 4, 16GB.
I recently noticed this odd pattern on the screen. It is visible even when the LCD is turned off.
When the screen is on, I can also see these vertical lines/bands. They are especially visible on dark gray backgrounds.
I notice the pattern more when there is a reflection on the screen.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is it an inherent side effect of the LCD technology used?
Thanks,
Yes, many have noticed it.

It's just the digitizer - nothing usual.

Just chiming in my agreement. It's normal for this type of panel.

Sorry, on a black background you can see the glow of the light bulb as to form a stain?

It looks the same as every IPS monitor ever.
Great color, great brightness, but mediocre blacks when viewed from the side
If you mean light bleeding or bad panel uniformity, yes most (if not all) have that.
R: Question on display, please
And so the infiltration of light from the top of display is normal?

Yes it's normal on IPS screens. The degree that it "infiltrates" varies between devices. my First Nexus 4 had backlight bleeding that was more obvious then the replacement device I have now. The replacement's back light bleeding is barely noticeable.
I've owned various devices with IPS screens
Asus Transformer TF101 (I've handled about 5 different devices)
Asus Transformer Prime (handled about 3 devices)
Asus Transformer Infinity(handled just the one I owned)
LG G2X (Had multiple replacments)
Nexus 4
Nexus 7(handled 3: 2 32gb HSPA+ and 1 16gb Wifi)
All had some light bleeding to a certain extent or another. Some being much worse than others.
I have a RMA for a 3rd Nexus 4 (The one I have now I love, hardly any backlight bleeding and everything is great except there is this one dark vertical line from top to bottom of the screen that you can see on white/gray backgrounds. My original Nexus 4 didn't have any of that)
If my 3rd has worse backlight bleeding than the one I currently have I might just deal with the dark line on the screen on white/gray backgrounds on my current device as that's the ONLY thing that bugs me about it.

Hi
Currently got an S4 and I'm looking to replace it as I use it a lot for movie watching and magazine reading and the slight yellow tint to the s4 screen really annoys me.
Seeing as the note 3 has a similar screen, but just slightly larger, can people confirm whether the note 3 suffers the same inaccurate whites/yellow tint?
Thanks!
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
I don't know what yellow tint you're talking about but my S4 didn't have it nor does my N3. I dont use adapt display and my screen mode is set to dynamic
Sent from my SM-N900W8 using Tapatalk 4
It's when viewing whites my s4 has a decidedly warm colour to it so whites look dirty and slightly yellowy. It's a well reported characteristic of the s4 although probably didn't affect every single one.
Just want to know if the note 3 solves this by having cool whites as opposed to warm. Maybe personal preference but I much prefer a cooler display.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
I have noted it but just in the movie mode, in dynamic and standard it seems a little bluer to me but it's personal opinion. But I have to say damn this is a beautiful display worth the choice of the phone by itself
Sent from my SM-N900 using xda app-developers app
That's good. As long as some of the modes have a cooler tint I'll be happy. The green/yellow tinge is just a bugbear of mine.
Thanks for the replies.
