I noticed today that on the display there's a really really thin green line on the left side of the screen, its hardly noticeable but on white it more noticeable. Is this how the AMOLED displays are or is there something wrong with my Vibrant? I think I had noticed this on a N1 before when I had that. Is anyone else seeing this as well? Thanks in advance.
mine has that too. didn't notice it til you pointed it out. Very, very thin line on the edge of the screen. probably normal.

i see it too. it's SUPER fine ALL the way to the left. so yea i would assume it's what throws the pixels across the display. i'm sure if we wikipedia AMOLED we'll get answers for the green..
Jesus I hate you for pointing this out, never noticed until now.

Yeah seriously thanks for pointing it out lol

I see it too. It looks like the left edge of the screen isn't as cleanly truncated as the rest of the edges and we're seeing green spectrum pixels shining against the dark interior of the phone.
I seen No Green Line ,,, sorry kats ,,
I can really only see it when the screen is a light neutral color, other than that I never really noticed it.

Sorry guys for pointing it out. Someone else pointed it out to me too. Oh well, I guess its normal since I am not the only one seeing it. It's fine, like I said its not even noticeable at all but I am lovin' the Vibrant so far..

go a to completely white screen you'll see it, i didn't want to believe it either
Yep. It's hard to spot, but it's there. Not a deal-breaker, but definitely annoying to see.

Annoying? It is hardly noticeable.
I only noticed because it was pointed out and I had to go to a totally white screen to see it.
This is pretty much a non-issue. A moderator should close this thread. lol.
Hey guys, i just recently got the transformer and i was wiping fingerprints off with a microfibre cloth when I noticed two perfect circles near the center of the screen. The screen was off and they were outlined in black. Anyone knowwhat im talking about? Is thisnormal or a defect? Thanks
I have never seen these circles. Did someone use your tablet as a coaster.
I don't have any on mine. Can you see them while the screen is on? What revision is your hardware?
Lol noone used it as a coaster and i cant see them when the screen is on. How so i check revsion? Thanks

They are eyes, Big Brother is watching... Sounds like a defect, can you take a picture and post it?
i wish I could but all I see in the picture is my own reflection. I'm checking out the tf101 on display at best buy as I'm writing this but it doesn't seem to have them, then again maybe they only appear in direct sunlight. Hmmm
Do you see them after you blink? Have you looked at the sun lately? LOL
Checked ours and don't have this.
I'm exchanging it for another, I've got a few dead pixels and some light bleed as well so I might as well
Sorry for ones who might know it already. Yesterday I just found out that if I lay my Z3 on a flat table, the bass will suddenly become richer, overall sound is not so flat, and it sounds a lot better than holding it on hands or lay it down on a bed.
I owned an Xperia Z2 before but never noticed this.

Yes, the table becomes a large baffle which will naturally increase bass response of any speaker.

The first video is clearly fake. I just posted a comment there about how those lines are behind the icons. Its like those lines are part of the wallpaper. Probably a live wallpaper prank app.

Point is there is many cases where "waterproof" fails...not only Sony...still I would never recomend that anyone try to use phone underwater without special case...

Hi Guys,
I purchased the Galaxy S7 Edge from Uae and now I am back in my hometown.
unfortunately my phone is only a month old and i just noticed that the front camera is misaligned by 1mm or so, you can see more of the black ring and the lens of the camera is more towards the right.
Although the camera works perfect and there are no problems, should i be worried?
I am extremely worried as the phone has no warranty in my country .
Mine is a bit misaligned as well. I wouldn't worry about it as long as it works as it should.

Thank God that is such a relieve as I don't have warranty support in my country and if i go to a service center they are known to rip customers off by selling unwanted parts especially to phones without warranty.
Is this normal, I saw this on other devices and some were aligned correctly?
Could you please share a picture of your device if possible?
Yea dont worry about that. I believe most are like that people just dont look that hard at there phones.

Hi thanks for the reply.
How is your front camera?
Well the rear camera aint misaligned, it uses OIS so it keeps on moving

Yea its just a bit off on the bottom of the camera.
You gotta look real hard to see. But its there. Doesnt effect anything since it doesnt cover the lense.
Same here i can see that theres much room on the bottom part of my front camera, but its working fine.

By room you mean the black part correct? As I can see more of the black ring which makes a gap between the lens and the outer ring but again mine is on the left side and not bottom so is that okay?
Yes. Its like the hole in the top glass was cut to big and off ceneter.

Alright thanks a ton
The black one is mines. It has a screen protector on so thats the top offset.
But if you look at the black trim you can see where on the buttom of the camera it has more space then the top as its off center
My wife is the sliver one.
I did my best to take a picture of it. You can see how hers is center.
Either way it dossnt effect the camera.
And fyi these pictures were taken with the phone lol.
My nikon battery was dead.

Thank you so so so much for the pictures.
Mine is somewhat just like yours, I am glad that I'm not the only one.
Your wife's camera also looks a little misaligned from the right or I don't know if its because of the picture.
It's just ironic that a phone with such a hefty price, one would expect some quality and tolerance?
I have these 2 very light yellow areas on my screen.
Here's the interesting part, they don't show up on screen shots. They also appear to be getting brighter.
A new screen is probably the only fix. But I'm curious of the cause. Any ideas?
I have included a sample of the issue.

Did you draw that in paint on a screenshot or take a picture of your phone?
If they are hot spots (bright white dots) then they are part of the screen and a new screen is the only issue.

My first buy had similar problems. I exchanged in a store for another.
There were lots of defective screens in Poland.
Factory reset can help for few days.

I drew that because they do not appear on screen shots. Could the color be between the LCD and the digitizer?

The colour is because of a ****ty screen. @acejavelin mentioned in another thread that they are caused by compression for some reason. Don't know how that happens. Like @dzidexx said another screen is the only thing which can solve it. Or deal with it, I do not know how bad it is sorry

Defect rather looks like "Lights behind the closed door".
Do a black photo or jpg file. Look at it with different levels of brightness.
Sometimes it can be observed with other colours.
More photos of defected screens(not mine):

The last two pics are it exactly. Even though its a little annoying, I still love this phone!! Its the only issue I've had and I use it a lot. For everything. Between flashing, modding and every one of my boot animations has been made on this beast!
And thanks for all the input on this issue everyone.
And sorry to all those who suffer as I do with this affliction. Just kidding.

Hardware !! Read the thread and you'll see it has been made clear it is hardware.
I have the same issue. If I press on the bezel next to the yellow area with my fingers the colors go back to normal until I release. Could this be caused by the screws inside being too tight?
I would disassemble my phone and try to unscrew them a bit but since the back cover is glued I'd rather not unless I'm sure that's it.
