Expand display image

If I look carefully my display I can notice that display image is not properly centered, infact it has two different black vertical bounds.
I would like to expand image to cover all the display area (like a regulation for lcd displays for example...).
Is it possible??

Hi. That's a bit vague - difficult to understand. Can you take a screenshot so we can see what you mean?
Yes I know it is a bit vague, but unfortunately I can't take any screenshot of this, bacause it would show nothing about this problem... I'll had to use an external camera, but at moment the only one I have is the leo's one...
Let me see if I can explain in little words... what I see is that the potential area of display is for example 480x800, but the real display (image on display) is smaller leaving black bounds all around it; it seems projected to a smaller surface, resulting in a smaller display experience (not so much to be honest ).
Given that in all pc monitors you can adjust image position and size to best fit its window, I was asking if it could be possible also on this leo device.
Hope you can better understand now...
If, for example, I open Internet Explorer and wait till the address bar and bottom buttons disappear, I'm left with a mostly white display. There IS a border of about 1mm all the way round this.
Is this what you are talking about?
Yes, it should be! In my case the stripe on the left side is a bit thinner than the one on the right...

That's not an active display area. The display shouldn't go to the very edge, so there's nothing wrong with your phone, and no, you can't expand the display.
Ok, thanks a lot!

[Q] Dotted lines on photo's!

Love the phone but today I noticed a problem, taking a pic at any resolution will produce great images bar a very thin dotted live about 30% of the way up the screen if taken in portrait. Try it yourself take a photo of a sheet of paper then zoom right in and scan around I tried before and a after camera FW update and its still there.
That's new Can you post a photo of yours, so we can get an idea of the problem ?
Yes, please post a pic.

[Q] Diagonal stripes/pattern on screen

I've noticed some faint diagonal stripes on my LG G2 (LG-D802). They make a pixel like pattern of stripes, only they are diagonal from upper left to lower right and mostly visible on solid clear colors like red, green or blue. The stripes are very thin and the width of the stripes is comparable/or slightly smaller then the pixel width of my old Samsung Galaxy S2 (>200PPI). In other words, it's not something I see all of the time but it gets noticeable when you look closely. And as I said it is mostly visible on solid colors, and not on text and other edges where pixels normally is visible (not that I think this is the actual pixels I see). One of the easiest ways to see it is to search after "red" on google images and open a red image, but it is also visible in most apps or on the homescreen.
Is this something anyone else has experienced/noticed, or is it it my display that is faulty?
I'm not allowed to post an outside link in my message (new user), but here is a picture if anybody want's to see.
It was not easy to capture this on camera, but the stripes are barely visible in the red of the Google+ icon and in the dark blue of the image icon. For size comparison; I use Nova Launcher with icon size 70% and the Minimal UI icon pack.

Could it be a problem with your screen protector? If not i recommend sending it in for a check..
Thanks for the reply.
I don't have any screen protector on, but the lines does seem to be fixed to the screen. I.e. if I move an object the lines does not stick to the object but "new" lines gets visible, so it can look like it can be something with the glass.
If nobody else has experienced the lines I will definitively send the phone in for service.
I tried the local phone store, but the guy only laughed at me because he did'nt see it. Great service attitude when you make the customers feel stupid
Maybe you are talking about the touch sensors?
All the phones have it and it's more visible on xperia phones.
Maybe, but I think the lines/pattern is to small and dense to be the normal grid that people see. When I turn the screen off I can (barely) see the the digitzer grid, but it is a completely different pattern (horizontal and vertical lines) and the lines are separated by several line widths (some millimeters maybe?). The diagonal lines I see are very close together. It looks like they are only a line width apart from each other.
One other thing I just noticed is that the lines does not rotate when the screen is in landscape mode. They still go from the front-camera corner down to the corner to the right of the LG logo.
Is it nobody with a good sight that can confirm if they see the stripes or not? Would have helped me a lot when proceeding with getting the phone in for service.

Dispay has shadows, burn in, translucent, opacity or bleedthru.

Greetings all,
I have a S7, and when I have a open white area, lets just go with messages, When I open up the message (text, stock) and compose a new message, I get the white screen however in the background I can see the home screen icon's very faint, with colors. I did a screen shot and when on the phone you can see the icon's, however when I move the screen shot to the PC I dont see any of the icon's, I was hoping to post the pic, but the pic is perfect. I dont know how to explain this, but it weird. I have done two factory wipe's, this is stock, I have not modified this phone. The carrier, (If needed) is T-Mobile. Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.
Ciao~

If you take a screenshot and it does not display the same as what you are seeing it means it is NOT software related unfortunately this is screen burn
thats what I figured, but its very bad, I have never had any of Samsung Phones every do this. If the display is burned, why would the icon's have color? I see only the background icons, when the screen is white. If it was burned should I see it on all the screens?

The screen burn burns in the colors a possible way to test this is change your background icons from what they were previously and see if the colours have changed on the screen where you can see the burn in..
Alternatively Get a screen test app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ua.dp.ustav.screentest should let you put solid colors on the screen) and set it for all white (there shouldn't be any other color showing) then for all black (there shouldn't be anything but black or a uniform very dark gray). If either one shows any sort of picture "ghost", the screen has burn-in.
Apparently it helps slightly if you set the screen mode to cinema. (Settings>Display>Screen Mode>Cinema)
Hope this helps

Display brighter top and bottom on black background

Hello. I just received my pixel 4 and have noticed that on a black solid wallpaper or background there appears to be what looks like light bleeding at the top and bottom of the screen. It's yellowish in colour and about 1/2 cm. I can only assume my screen is faulty but I just wanted to ask if anyone else has had this issue? I've tried to take some pictures of the issue and will attach to this post.
Cheers.

The status bar has a gradient color so it should show light at the top. The navbar has one too but more subdued. Hard to see in a screenshot. Yours does look like more than just a gradient however.

Yeah it's a yellowish green colour too which doesn't seem normal. I'm going to send it back. Thanks for your reply.
