blurry pixels

I dont know if i am explaining this right, but it seems that whenever battery status is running, the pixels seem to get very blurry. For example, the signal bars start shivering, the bars become blurry, and random blurry lines show up in random parts of the screen. has this happened to anyone else, and if so have you fixed it?
Thanks in advance,

If by that you mean that the screen starts flickering like a very old CRT monitor, then it does happen when the CPU in underclocked. In my wizard, the view becomes unstable below 100MHz, but it might vary from device to device.
First thing you might want to do is to go to batteryStatus options and disable the CPU scaler (dynamic CPU overclocking) and set the CPU speed to stock 195MHz. If after that the screen becomes stable again, it means that it was a problem with underclocking. In that case you'd need to find a minimal speed on which your screen looks fine - just test all the speeds below 195MHz and set the minimal speed not causing screen problems as minimal speed for the CPU scaller (it's in BS options/CPUScaler)
i believe it happens when ever this an overclocked speed. But it also happens occasioinaly at 195 mhz. is there any fix for this?
any ideas?
nobody else has had this problem????

[Q] E-ink bleeding/ghosting in Fast Mode

I installed the OC kernel/fast mode from this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906507&page=7
and it works well, but I have a lot of bleeding and ghosting going on. IE. The outline or parts of images stay after I start zooming/panning, basically doing anything. Is there anyway to get rid of the bleeding?
Fast mode does degrade display quality - it's not that good for reading in fast mode, imo - but is helpful for things that redraw the whole screen.
If you just use the overclock and change the governor to performance, the quality of the display isn't affected and you get a performance benefit. I briefly tried locking the cpu at the higher end of the frequency range, which is noticable but I suspect drains the battery more than needed.

Try clearing "dalvik cache".
Have you flashed the latest kernel 166?

For viewing images I use "JustPictures!". For PDF's, 'EzPDF' and 'Ebooka'.
The ghosting is hardly noticeable.
Here is compare of fast mode and no refresh on my nook. fast mode has a high loss of contrast and a lot of ghosting.I preffer no refresh. Program is EBookDroid.
Thanks for the suggestions, guys!
I'll try them out and see if they work.

[Q] some strange adaptive brightness randomly

helllo
Even if I am using manual brightness set to max - when browsing for example XDA forums which has alot of white - I notice if i drop down the statusbar to check notifications - then go back into xda the screen dims down a notch. (Going from alot of black to alot of white)
This is with all auto-options set to disabled and at max brightness.
This also occured in omega rom, also MF8 base.
And sometimes after a while, it can go back to max brightness randomly. I feel its some sort of adaptive brightness thingy that is misbehaving - even though everything is set to manual.
I tried MGA but its the same thing - . -
and it happens randomly. then after a little while the brightness can go up to max again.......
There's an option in the display settings which is badly named but which turns off this behavior. I think it's named adaptative display or auto tone or something like that. It's the 2nd from the bottom.

I already have everything like this turned off
Same problem here. Couldn't find any 3rd party app to address this. Tried almost all brightness related titles in the play store. Hope someone will come out with some dolution for this. It's sooooo annoying!

Same probleme here....
That made now 2 weeks that I search a solution. All the options of auto-luminosity are disabled, luminosity set to the maximum manually, auto-tons disabled and eco mode off but despite everything, in a dark part, my screen dimmed. It is very disturbing because it dimmed then return in full luminosity etc.... It is a problem but beyond that, I noted that at the time when the automatic adjustment of luminosity occurs, the processor also loses in frequency. It still reaches a maximum at 1.458 ghz or worse at 1.2 ghz.. I tested several Roms: Stock rooted, Google edition 4.3, V8.0 Omega, the result is the same one. I tested several Kernels: Faux123, KT-SGS4 and Adam Kernel. I tried to block the processor at 1.89 GHZ (min + max) at a session of games but at the end of a few seconds, automatic reduction of the luminosity and decreased processor. I think it is not a hardware problem because much of users of Galaxy S4 have this worries.
I become insane with that! And my wife also
Is it possible that a developer integrates a corrective in next a Rom or perhaps make a tweak?

I think i know what's causing the issue.
When I got my phone I noticed the same thing. Apparently its a function of the software deep in the system(at least that's how I understand it). There is no easy way to turn it off. Basically it throttles the screen brightness depending on the average amount of white displayed. The more white the more the brightness is throttled. Not sure if it's to prevent the screen from overheating or to save battery or for both. It's kind of like how the screen can ramp up to a higher brightness when in auto than when in manual. I think it's a thermal issue, but not sure.

i also think its thermal/power saving related.
a kernel tweak should fix it.

I don't know of any kernels which address this "issue". Even if you could fix it with a kernel, I'm not sure you would want to

Safety feature when using camera?

When video recording for over 20secs, the screen will go dim and when u go into brightness settings i will get a message saying the device is overheating if you try to change the brightness back to full, this normal?
It happens on both 5.0.1 and 4.4.4..
I checked the temp straight after and it was only at 40c.. I have literally just bought the phone and never experienced screen dimming on the note 3, possible bug, faulty phone?

Not experiencing that on both version even when recording 4K. Maybe you're encountering the issue below.

Yes i do notice the top half of the phone getting really hot, but ive only had the phone since saturday and dont want to root the phone just incase i have to take it back, any other options?
EDIT: Got the phone replaced, using the samsung stock camera the screen will dim a tiny bit and in the brightness settings it will say device is overheating even though phone not warm must be a safety feature to stop phone from overheating itself, downloaded snap camera and there was no screen dimming or warnings in settings. Checked my old note 3 and the same thing is there with the dimming and warning.
I read somewhere about knox being a culprit so i will look into that due to all the security features etc.

Any program for monitoring phone CPU and/or GPU load which can be seen on PC??

Hello, I am currently running some testing on my Nexus 6P regarding CPU/GPU usage on certain conditions.
Now I have an issue; I want to test it in games, but obviously, I can't see the results while I'm playing, so... well, what the title says...
Do you know of any method to see the results propery? Or maybe an app on the phone that can put them on the same screen, like an overlay...
Thanks!
....bump?

Run the monitor on your computer while phone is attached?
