4.2 Grey Background Artifacts

Ever since updating to 4.2, I have these grey artifacts on grey backgrounds when dialog boxes appear... such as the one attached in my pic......
Not sure why more people are not bringing this issue up, but anyone heard of anything like this, or can confirm to experience this?
You mean the partial discoloration? Yeah my Nexus 7 has that as well...seems like Google messed up on the coloring or something

Why make 2 threads about this?

So more people would notice it and discuss it on Google bugs so it would have a better chance of being fixed in the next update, which it will be now.
Ever since updating to 4.2? What do you mean? Your phone should have come with 4.2 already installed.
Can u circle what u mean? I dont see what you are talking about

It looks like the grey is dripping like paint down the back of the dialog box.
I am surprised you even noticed this. On my screen it's really faint. I had to hold it right up to my face...
Its more prominent on my Nexus 7. And I meant that this is a bug that arrived with the 4.2 update, because my Nexus 7 got this bug when I upgraded to 4.2

Momentary black screen

Anyone had this one? Since 4.2, the screen momentarily goes black, with a similar transition to hitting the task manage soft key, but transiting to the left in landscape, then flicks back to normal use. Happens in apps...screws up some games, puts others into pause mode as if a task has been switched. Thought it might have had something to do with auto rotation going a bit bonkers, but not sure....
Not heard any reports...have looked through the forum, couldn't find anything.
Weird...it just did it then....but the keyboard stayed on screen, xda disappeared to the left...
Any thoughts and thanks in advance

Ok..just happened again while in portrait mode. Definitely saw it flick to landscape. Rotation is locked btw.
Hmmmmm.....

It happened to me three times last night after update to 4.2 :crying:
Ok...so, while sitting in a tedious meeting, Nexus in landscape, propped up with its folding case the screened flipped upside down and stayed upside down. 3 times. My ipad using colleague giggled.
Any way to recalibrate the tilt sensor? Or any other suggestions?
It's not the end of the world but...there must be a patch solution or other? Before 4.1 I used the auto rotate app, I forget its correct name...
Thoughts?

I used logcat to monitor the Nexus 7 until the random rotation happened. After looking at the log I realized that it was always the same process being activated and that process was nVision.
Since nVision always rotates into landscape mode I was suspicious that perhaps when it tried to update itself in the background it was changing the screen orientation. I disabled notifications and then uninstalled the app and the problem has completely gone away. I have had no random rotations at all in the last 24 hours.

Thanks very much. Ill give it a try and report back

Okie doke.
For the record.... 48 hours and no random flips to landscape and back. I'd be willing to be a substantial amount of money this was the culprit. However, whether this is a 4.2 issue per se vs. Bad behavior in nVision is an open Question.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Ok. Disabling nvision notifications still flips out. Will uninstall later.
Thanks again

Uninstall it. I still think it checks in and screws your screen, whether it shows you the notification or not.

Uninstalled...all good so far. Woooooo!

Background App shadow on Nexus 7 screen ?

Hello,
I have a Nexus 7 32GB WiFi, using 4.2.2 stock ROM, rooted and unlocked boot loader. I wiped device when 4.2.2 was released and started fresh again.
For a few weeks now I have noticed when using Chrome browser after closing or letting browser run in background when looking at my home screen I can see part of the browser like a shadow showing on the screen.
Here is a picture of it, does anyone know what this is and is it a hardware problem or something ?
Some times the shadow is much noticeable than other times.
If you look carefully you will see the shadow.
Thanks for any help.

Not a hardware problem. It goes by a couple of terms, ghosting, persistence, and if permanent screen burn-in.
It happens when you have the same screen up for a long time. If it fades, It's persistence, and does no real harm. If the 'ghost' does not fade it's burn-in, and is permanent damage.
Keeping your seen at the lowest brightness that suits your current need will minimize this, and help prevent actual burn-in.

Slow unlock

Hi guys
Is anyone experiencing problem with unlocking the screen. I have moments when it takes good second or so for screen to lit up after pressing power.

Please share which ROM? did you come from 4.2.2 to 4.3 or what?
Post your question in precise manner.. I have been experiencing the same some times the screen lit ups after a fraction of second after pressing the power button and about the lockscreen I had that issue on 4.2.2 while drawing patterns, this is due to the apps working in the background.
Ohh sorry. Forgot about that lol

Try this:
1. Go to Settings > About Phone > Android version 4.4.3 and tap on this several times until easter egg appears; this will hide your navigation bar
2. Then swipe from the bottom and see if the navigation bar is working
Report back!

Smart attempt!
But nothing... I pressed on the tiles where the Nav sits and the tiles move to my touch... But swiping from there doesn't bring the nav back... Swiping from the top does =\

Sounds ridiculous but I'd try flashing 4.2.2 factory image too. You never know..
I dirty flashed 4.4.3 flashable zip file from N5 port ROM and I faced similar issue, no nav bar and no status bar like immersive mode.
I retried with wipe data/factory reset, clean cache and dalvik cache solved the issue.

Digitizer issue, my friend. I hate to break it to you, but unless you can afford to spend on a new display unit, you will have a tough time using this phone. I have the same issue, and the best cost estimate I can get for the replacement is INR 5500 (around USD 100).
This is what happens when the digitizer and front glass are fused The whole damn unit has to be replaced even though the glass is totally intact. :FML:

Its kinda weird though because I went into the Easter egg and started playing with the tiles where the Nav sits... Worked just fine. They moved to my touch. =\

Funny you should say that. My phone navbar seems to have started working fine too. Boy, this is strange!
(I'm serious. The navbar was totally unresponsive, and now it's working like there was never a problem)
But interesting coincidences aside: I would advise you to try flashing stock again. Not sure whether that will solve the problem, but if your digitizer is fine, there has to be a software issue. The fresh start should clear up that issue, whatever it is.
And one more thing: When you enable "Show touches" in Developer options, are you able to get touches to show up on the nav bar? If yes then reflash. If no, it is indeed a digitizer problem, and I have no idea how that Easter egg thingy is working out.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
Almightiness so I figured out what caused this issue. I had bought a charger from the gas station not too long ago. The charger would make the phone Charging percentage Glitch so I tried it on my phone... Worked. After a while the home button would press itself and after I took it off it would stop. My friend was using it and he says his keyboard was pressing letters in different areas and he's never experienced it before.
I did the whole "show touches" In developers options and I can see that it can not recognize my touch. I glide my finger over the screen and stops on the top of the Navigation Strip. =\ fak
