I just noticed today that there is a bright line at the bottom of my screen. Tried changing wallpaper rebooting made no difference. Not sure if its a burned line on the screen now. I have attached a screen shot, any suggestion or test method I can check would be greatly appreciated.

Lol can't see it which means its probably something wrong with your display

If it's the display itself that's having a problem, you need to take a pic of it using a camera. A screen shot is just a capture of what's being projected on the screen, not the screen itself.
I had the same problem after a screen replacement on my phone which I originally broke the screen on. I would suggested taking it back to the store for a replacement handset.

Don't think so, I feel your pain mate. Its a line of dead pixels on mine it was really bright then after a few days then typically after about 2 days it changed to a really really faint line which was barely visible.

that's exactly what I have right now. A really bright thin line. this is a canadian bell sg 2 and I have rooted and unlocked with chainfire cf-root using zs kg2 kernel. So I got a yellow triangle that I need to get rid off. Any suggestions? I'm worry about the counter where they may be able to tell that the phone is has been tempered. :-(

Restore to stock firmware and reset the custom rom download counter using a USB jig.
Anyone else experience a bug with camera where some photos taken have random white lines on the edges of the photo?

Zoom into the photo and you will see white lines a the right and at the left side.
My pictures don't have such white lines. Maybe it is just a bug of your camera app? Try a different camera app and look if your white lines are still present

yes i mean the two white lines on the edge of the photo. it usually happens when taking pictures in dark environments. i also have camera zoom fx on my phone and tried that and the lines still appear.
anyone else have this issue?

I am. It seems to be a bug cuz it happens randomly. Can't really replicate it. Tends to happen after messing with zoom.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I had several pictures get funky on me the other day after messing with the zoom. sucks because they were of my little boys birthday, no idea what happens
Same issue on both of my phones and it happens with my friend as well. I figured out a way to reproduce this. Turn flash off and take the image in low light. For example with the room lights off and just the lighting of your monitor will do it. The darker the better. Doing it this way seems to trigger it 8-9/10 times. My friend tested while at work with office, but was still able to trigger it taking pictures of a picture of the serial number on the bottom of his laptop. No zooming was used.
The lines that come up on the right are always 2nd, 3rd, or 4th pixel from the right. On some occasions I have been able to get it to come up as the 2nd and 4th at the same time. On the left side it seems to always come up between the 16th and 20th pixel from the left. I will have to look closer at all of the images to confirm it is always like this.
I am not even sure what to do now...
Thanks for bringing it up.
I just noticed it as well.
I'm also seeing this! bugs the **** out of me!
Mine as well

Kinda odd that since the 4.2.2 update I have begun to experience this bug for the first time as well.
Anyone notice this issue on any other camera app besides the stock?
I hadn't noticed, but mine does the exact same thing. I could always crop that out I guess...
What's worse is the blurring effect I get. You really see it on the hand and ear. Anybody have this or know how to fix? Stock, rooted. Happens on 4.2.1 and 4.2.2

Turn off HDR. Since it averages three images, it's not good for moving subjects
Just tested it on Camera Zoom FX app using TTZip's steps and was able to reproduce the problem there too. Could this be considered a hardware defect?
Also experiencing this.
I'm currently on my second N3 (the first one had vertical lines in photos) and looks like this one has a bad display. When using Tapatalk with the dark theme, the bottom left corner/edge of the display is brighter than the rest. When testing with Screen Adjuster, the difference is very noticeable. The issue can be seen even with just Thumb Keyboard with WP7 theme.
Has anyone else noticed this kind of problem?
Return it and buy from another store. Seems like these guys are selling you lemons.

Check it with the stock messaging app, it should have a uniform brightness. Mine is glowing on the left edge and especially on the bottom left corner.

Should this happen again, The vertical lines are solved by clearing cache/data in the camera app

The problem can not be seen in a screenshot. And the camera lines disappeared after a hard reset but came back soon after.

You may notice that the black screen when you open the settings. Not symmetric Colors.
There is a difference in the backlight. Increase in the left of the screen.
AMOLED has no backlight! the issue is due to the production process (basically: the more of the center of the wafer your particular screen has been cut out, the more uniform it will be)!

If you want to get rid of display brightness issues, just switch to Dynamic, as the 'blacks' in Settings would be even blacker, to the point where it doesn't really light up as it uses the OLED technique of showing true black.
Anybody an idea whether this is a display damage? Black appears not normal.

Black crush
Well,this is called 'black crush' or 'black clipping'. It is still there a little bit,but nothing serious. The first Note was horrible... Don't worry,nothing is wrong with the phone,it is a software issue,and (I think) it will be fixed soon.
Im very confused as it really distorts the display of the black.
In the settings the search field has a deep Black. Rest is more or less grey.
In the toggle menu the bottom bar has weird stripes.
It's not just a small issue. ...

You posted screen shots. No one can tell anything from those you need to take a picture of the problem using a camera. The phone's been out for over a month now. If what's happening to you were wide spread I assure you it would have been brought up (numerous times) by now. If whatever you're seeing was like that out of the box (before you loaded any apps) it's probably a h/w problem with your specific device.
I have the same issue too on my Note 3!
I'm from Singapore here.
I didn't notice that the pictures appear perfectly normal on other displays.
I did some shots with a camera.

That isn't normal - I'd you are running a custom ROM I'd take back to stock to see if the issue persists, and send it back if it does.

Mine too. Isn't that supposed to be the way the display looks? Just kidding.
A display that looks like this isn't normal and if there were a lot of them people would be going nuts.
It's either something s/w related that's fried the graphics drivers or a h/w problem unique to specific phones. If it remains after a hard reset than it's h/w and the phone needs to be exchanged.
Tried the hardware reset but didn't change anything. Bad luck this time.....

That is really something wrong.
It suppose no strip at telco area.
Beside search bar, the rest bottom part is suppose black also not grey.
I believe your screen is defective.
I've factory-rested and it's the same.
Re-installing exactly the same J1 firmware (in Singapore it's the latest) via Odin also yeilds same result.
Another friend of mine is facing the same issue.
However, the ambience at the Samsung stores are so bright, and it's hard for the customer service officers to see
Well I'll see what Samsung After service Germany will say... the point is that the screen looks ok if you test the blue, green, red and black screen test under *#0*#. But during normal use I'm faced with the problems as shown above
I'll keep you updated.

I've had this phone a couple of days and taking outside or inside photos near a window is a nightmare! Photos have a bad blur around the window or outside! Maybe it's just me but I'm really not impressed with it! Photos look a bit misty! Is it me or is it this camera?

Hi Again
I caved in an bought another g2 to see if my blurred pictures were a hardware fault or just due to a crappy g2 camera, looks like my new g2 takes pictures of simular quality to my s4
Sorry to say but sounds like your g2 camera module needs replacing or the phone itself.
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Free mobile app
This was my old g2 with the same pic. I think the glass scratches on the lens had something to do with it.

Although, i still think the s4 is crisper and cleaner (but a bit dimmer) at indoor shots with incandescent lighting.
