Those little spots are normal as well.. My nexus 7 has that and most phones do
As for the first pic.. That is the IPS touch sensor

I believe that is what LG calls "Zero Gap Technology". Its not a defect.

I just got mine today it is a great phone but then I noticed when I'm on a white screen I see a dark blotch or blur in the center of the screen..i call it a fish eye about the size of a pencil eraser.
Has anyone else seen this ? I'm returning it as soon as my replacement comes hope this isn't a common issue with the nexus and don't want to go through 10 returns before I get a good one.

Don't know if you'll be able to see it from this screen shot.
When you look at it close it looks just like a dimple in the screen behind the glass.

You probably have warped glass from the installation of the panel to the digitizer. One of mine had a bright yellow glue ring about 60-70% down the screen in the middle. Try angling the screen in different lights and see if you notice any wavering... Like a very faint ding on a car. I think whatever machine presses the screens down does it too hard.

You need to post a real pic. Screenshots won't show a physical defect.

Hi all , i have used Nexus 4 for four days . I see many small rectangles on my screen ( screen off) when the shunshine(or light) radiate to my screen . Is it ok ?
Thanks all and sorry for my bad English
Small rectangles? Not sure what it's supposed to mean you should take a picture so others can help you
If it's really a defect and not some smudge or something then you could request for a RMA from Google, send it back and get a shiny new Nexus 4.
Is normal. What you are seeing is the digitizer.

Yes, it's fine, it's the digitiser.

If it bothers you or gets worse, return them under warranty? You probably won't notice that anyway under normal usage.
Maybe the lcd settles in a couple of weeks and they disappear!

I posted last night that there is this really small white dot on my screen. It only visible on light colors like white . But its not visible if the color is really dark. Like on you tube where the search option is it not visible but when i go to Facebook i can see right next to my notification but its small. Anyways is there a way for it to go away? This phone is only like a day old :/ & it was bigger last night but it got smaller because i played a video that repeated blue red and green fast because i heard it make stuck pixel go back to normal.
Also is it a dead pixel or stuck?
Return the phone if you can't live with it.

BDW, OP can u please post the picture of your white case on N4? Or u can PM me the link if u upload elsewhere.
I'd RMA it, pretty sure they'll replace it free of charge. Although it's just a pixel, stuck and/or dead pixels annoy the crap out of me because once you notice them, you can't stop looking at them every damn time!

Depends on Google/LG's interpretation - Samsung don't except anything under 5 pixels as faulty

I just saw a white pixel on the middle of the screen but I can only appreciate it at dark, when screen is black and brightness set to maximum (which I never have on dark environment). Was that an issue for you? I really have to look for it for a while in any other case. Pixels are sooo small. Don't even bother to rma. No other issue with the phone.
I'm thinking it's just a pixel stuck in a grey colour because it so difficult to see.

exactly the same problem, around the same place !
tonight or tomorrox I'm gonna command a new one, I already called google.

I have the same issue but luckily it's right at the top under the notification bar so only see it very occasionally when I turn to landscape in Gmail or something.
So I have this weird issue. The very bottom of my screen does not respond well! At first I thought it was a bug with the navigation bar, tried several roms and tried PIE controls until I figured that there is something wrong. I have the navbar now set at 48 dpi and I have to press at middle of it to work, where the very bottom is dead. I activated 360 rotation so that my statusbar now is at the bottom of the screen instead of navbar and it does not respond at all! Anyone can explain ?

I have Tried like lots of different roms with clean fresh installation and the problem is still there ! I think its a hardware problem. For ezample right now if I set my navbar to 32 dpi it wont respond at all because the bottom of my screen have lost the touch sensitivity. I have droppes my phone several times, could that be it ? I cant really remember when I exactly started noticing the issue...but just few days ago...I have tried PIE and same **** :s I have to set the trigger area to max for it to respond...and yes im talking about experiments after a clean install before installing ANY third party app

okays... Now I think it surely a hardware problem,as you said you havr also dropped your phone several times.. All the best goto the service centre for the repair.. dont tell them that you have dropped your phone else they will charge you badly even if you are under warranty.. You are welcome..

Think Im gonna give no damn about it and of course buy the nexus 5, which I would have done either way..but im surprised how can a touchscreen lose a part of its sensitivity somewhere on the screen ?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
If you look closely at your screen at an angle with the screen off you will be able to see the digitizer matrix that is fused to the screen.
It is a series of squares.
Each of them squares has 3 horizontal lines and one vertical.
Behind the bezel there will be the circuitry that connects every horizontal and vertical line
If say for instance after one of your phone drops it has damaged one of the connectors at the side, you will lose the entire row of touch detection. Which is probably what has happened

Alex is right i had this happen to my moto defy. I'd say get it done under warrnty no matter if youre keeping or selling. Improve your resale value and protect you from having the entire digitizer die on you
