why when screen is off invisible grids are actually visible !?

sorry if this question has been asked before
but during the screen destruction test video that published today and also in mobile-review's article , we can see dots of screen grids that meant to be invisible but they are actually more than visible. as mobile-review wrote we can see them with naked eyes

if you are lucky enough to have this device already , seeing those dots hurts ?
or is there any hope to not have them with some software tweaks ? ( i dont think so )
cuz the awful part is , they mentioned that sometimes when the screen is on , grids are also visible

Never seen this dots in other review... strange !
If some owners could confirm ?

I'm don't think it is going to be a problem at all and I really don't think it will be really that visible when we use the device daily. Why are u sound so worried about the dots when they are visible in some rare occasions? most HTC phones have them too, I've never ever hear anyone complain about this.

similiar to this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=576052
@the poster above - why quote the whole thing?!?!!
and yes, you can see the dots when its resisitive screens, this is a capative.
I haven't found an answer to it yet, but dont really care as long I can do my work/watch videos/surf without them being in the way ^^

[Q] Desktop Screenshot Problems

Hi, i had the Xperia Play (800a) for 2 days now, it's rooted and with busybox. Today i was trying to take a picture from the phone desktop with PicMe, but the image was very bad! Like a transparent image with a pink or red color.... I try ShootMe too, but i obtained the same result. The last effort was making it with the PC with the SDK tools (ddms) but the same result shows up.
Bad photo

Anyone with the same problem?
Can anyone help me with that? or just tell me what's the problem?
Thanks!

I can’t believe there is no way to do a screen shot with a stock phone. What the hell is wrong with Sony? It is so easy on the iPhone.

Not used it myself but I see lots of people using MPE to take screen grabs.
I'm rooted so just use a screenshot app from market.

try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12701006&postcount=3 just connect phone in usb debugging to pc open the asm.jar. Worked for me

I just use screenshotit

I've used screenshot with proper results. Still, it's a bit stupid to have to root the phone in order to get a screenshot. The Galaxy S, for example, allows you to do without.

I am not a fan of having to root to screenshot.

Ok, thanks for the answers, i try Screenshot It and it works, but it's not a free app, so i really don't want to pay for taking ss of my phone. Screenshot works well too, and it is free. I'm going to try the asm.jar solution today, later i tell you if this work too.
Thanks

Please explain.

"ScreenshotIt" and "screenshot" are two different apps.

@ Logseman & @ matknny . Use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12701006&postcount=3 no need to root and if the screenshots colors are wierd you can just right click on the screen > adjust color

I have my phone rooted and I can use DDMS, but thanks anyway

Mozza2k11, thanks for this unrooted tip

Picture Slide to unlock

Hi all,
I was wondering. I would like to see an unlock screen with 6 (or 9/12) small pictures/icons in random postions. The user can make up a small story so he would know in which order he should slide/swipe to the different pictures to unlock the phone. Also a nice feature would be if the usere could pick the pictures which would be displayed on the lockscreen. The position of the displayed pictures/icons should always be random to ensure security.
Is there something like this out there for android??
Regards, RR69

I think it's too easy and fast to solve. Why not a lockscreen with something like this to solve?

So that it's pointing to the right rather than up, and also rotate it so that it's pointing left? I try to do it in my Gallery app but then I can't use it on my NavBar . I wanted to be able to use it ad a custom image for my navbar icons
Also, can you mirror this one
Same deal with the above. I want to be able to use it ad a custom icon for my navbar
Sent from my Nexus 4

Here it is (I made it all because I didn't undersatnd very well what you wanted exactly...)

Thanks, but I can't use them
The red block in the bottom left is one if the icons you rotated
The background needs to be transparent somehow and I have no idea how to make it transparent
If this is too hard to do I'll settle with just one simple line that matches the height of the predator navbarset's back and recent button's top line

Try these one and then let me know the one you prefer and what precisely you want (I mean forother images) :good:

Replace your phone's screen.
It is covered under warranty.

I had sent the screenshots. Also,
I have rooted my phone so it's not under warranty anymore, if the problem persists I'll untoot, lock bootloader and then go to the service center.

Yeah, if your phone is under warranty, you could easily change the display with the service center guys. It's free of cost.
