in direct sunlight in the screen of my note 4 i can see gray dots (pattern) beneath the screen is this normal (white background only) ? but when im in a shade it will disappear.
I'd take your Note 4 back to the retailer or a Samsung Repairs Center and get to take a look at it. You may have a faulty unit.
i already did and the technician said that it is normal ? i forgot what he mentioned, something like digitizer or the sensor of the touch screen.
by the way, it will only appear in very bright sun light and white background. it is not appearing when using other kinds of light (flash light, led lights, room lights, etc)
p.s. , when i hover my hand or head in the screen it is disappearing

Hi all,
Just noticed this issue and want to see if there are any others noticed the same before or can check their HD2 for same issue.
My HD2 screen is perfect under day light or yellow light at night. with no mark-spot and very smooth.
Bu last night I noticed that under white light like fluorescent, there is a mark at the center of the screen with colours. you can see it when the screen is on or off. But on daylight or yellow light lamp, you can not see it in anyway.
Can you please check yours in white light?
Thanks.
reminder please
Could be a light case of newton ring...
I sat on my HD2 and ended up with what looked like a smudge / spot on my screen which had a kind of petrol rainbow around it...(you know when petrol mixes with water on the ground you can see a kind of rainbow effect??).
It was the "newton ring" issue, HTC replaced the screen for me via the service center...(search for "newton ring" on this forum and you can see many posts / pics I think)
What you have could be a light form of that, I guess the "smudge" (which was pretty prominent on my phone) is small on yours and you can only see the rainbow colours that appear around it...
On my phone the smudge and colors were right in the center of the screen...
Hope this helps.
Whatever
It is good to hear a reply. very clear.
Thank you.
Search did not reveal any post with this particular screen defect.
The phone is a collegue's of mine so I can't troubleshoot it directly or tell you baseband etc. It's brand new, 4.2.2, and a 4G so probably i9505 (bought in europe, sweden). It has not been droppped, collegue would have said if this was the case . What collegue told me was it was like this when collegue got it.
Sometimes screen becomes blue, but only parts of it. You can see this clearly on the attached photos. It's most promient on white areas, which are not white at all, but, well, blue!
Especially note the partial blueness of Whatsapp icon borders.
Screen lock is being used, blue tint appears on lockscreen as well.
Could not isolate when this occurs. I did not experiment much with the giroscope, don't think that's it. I also seem to recall viewing angle not making a difference. I did have it in my possesion for 30 min, during which the blue tint did not occur. Auto brightess was already off, took brightness down 2 or 3 notches. This is what I changed in settings -> display:
Screen mode: standard
Auto adjust screen tone: off
options that should not be relevant
Screen timeout -> 5 min
Wifi -> off
After this I gave it back to collegue, about 10 minutes went by, collegue took phone out of pocket and activated screen. Now the blue tint was back. At this time I took the attached photos a well as did as screenshot capture, which is not attached, but the blue tint was present there as well. It looked exactly the same as the actual OS/what I had seen with my eyes.
Device was a this time lieing on a flat surface.
I told my collegue to turn in the device for another one, but collegue would rather try/hear about/research a DIY- solution first.
Is this a common defect? Is it sw or hw? Can it be fixed? Etc...

edit: it seems to occur when the phone's screen has been turned off for a couple of minutes. Yesterday I unlocked device after being dormant for some hours, blue tint was there. Screen timed out by itself and when I unlocked blue tint was not present. Waited 4 min then unlocked, and sure enough blue was back. Turning on-off screen solved it once again. Also tried repeatedly locking-unlocking without blue tint reappaering.
I broke my screen a few days ago and had it taken in to be replaced. A few hours after receiving it I noticed the LED was blinking, but in strange colors different than those I set in Light Flow. The normally white notification is now cyan, yellow is now green, purple is blue. Red however doesn't display at all, so it seems that the red portion of the RGB scale is not functioning. Does anybody know what during the screen repair process might be causing this to happen? I'm almost certain its not software related as prior to having it repaired the LED was working correctly. Thanks!
There's a kind of filter for the LED on the display, not all replacement parts come with it and it's pretty easy to overlook.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There does seem to be a blue hue around the notification light area when held in the light... So could it be that this filter was mistakenly left on the old screen, instead of transferred to the new part? Or is it something attached to the screen that can't be moved from one part to the other?
It wound up being a damaged LED light
Hello all,
After my phone got repaired 2 times for the same reason i want to know if other people experience this issue too?? It is most noticeable on black/blue screens.. Turns red/yellowish.. Now i have to send my phone for a third repair... Would it also be possible to just receive my money back?
Seems like the screen of this device is really really bad..
What turns red/yellowish? I am having my phone repaired right now cause I do see a reddish blurry dot on the screen when viewing video or black backgrounds.
Screen is on multiple spots discoloured on darker colours like black or blue. On those spots the colour is yellow/red where it should be the right colour.
I got that too, today, it weirded me out. The screen went full yellow tinted, and turning the screen off and on didn't do anything. So I restarted, but everything is fine now. But what about later ? Will it appear again ?
Dear guys;
I own a Galaxy Note 4 which is no longer under warranty and I've just spotted that some LEDs in a row have got dim. Actually, to check the led lights I put my phone's screen under the microscope and just figured out that the problem is with the blue LEDs (some blue LEDs were producing less light there and the other LEDs were OK). I also checked whether it was for an effect or something but actually it was not. Actually all i found about the case on the web was about the dead LEDs (but my LEDs were still working) and I didn't find anything useful.
I'd REALLY appreciate it if you guys give me a solution to the problem because it's REALLY annoying. so thank you in advance
I wish you all the best
Maybe burned-in effect? On my Note where is the notification bar the screen is brighter (when bar is hidden). This week I will send it to the repair (mine is still under warranty)
