anyone have the touch screen alignment problem or it's just me?

try to download "multi touch paint" from the market.
draw a line across near the bottom of the screen. you'll find it always below where u touch, compare to a line draw across the top of the screen.

Yup seems to be your the only odd-ball, just kidding i couldnt draw the thing either haha.
I get exactly the same behaviour when I draw a line right over the touch-buttons and when I do the same at the very top edge of the screen, can't see anything that looks misaligned.
I have that issue,too.
That happen most likely when I turn my phone side way and try to access the bottom icon on the home screen. The touch screen has 30% chance to be out of alignment.
the line i draw just slightly below where i touch, that is around 2mm, sleep/reboot won't fix it.

Weird tint on top & bottom of lock screen. .

Hi guys nd gals, I recently received a ota update last week, must of been an android one I think as I'm still running 5.1.1 stock, anyway after I installed the update my lock screen has a weird tint on the top & bottom, it's greenish on top about 1cm from top of screen and the full width, on the bottom it's grayish and again about 1cm up and whole width, is this a android thing? It's awful to say the least, maybe a bug? I really don't know, cant seem to get rid of it now matter what I try... using s6 edge plus. . Can I upload photos on here? Thanx. ..Darren

New S7 edge screen problem. Dead pixels?

No dead pixels on mine yet. If they are bothering you, you should exchange your phone from where you bought it.
I have a pixel on te bottom right corner which stays white. The weird thing is, its not a dead pixel because if i turn the screen side ways the pixel moves to the bottom right corner again ( bottom left corner of the phone) an if i take a screen shot and zoom in on it, you'll see it in the screenshot too. I really don't understand how thats possible...
And i have a galaxy S7, not the edge.

S8+ screen shadow on edges

Hello,
After I received the latest update which enabled more options like gamma in display settings I've noticed while browsing that on a full screen white background the edges tends to drop somehow a gray shadow.
While I think this is kind of normal because of the edge curvature, looking straight in the center of the phone, the right shadow is somehow more pronounced than the left one.
If I move the phone a bit to the left or turn it few degrees to the left, the right shadow disappears while the left is starting to be pronounced.
Also when I look at the phone horizontal, with the usb connector on the right side, the bottom edge doesn't exhibit any pronounced shadow while the top can be seen. The top shadow is the previously right one.
If I turn it with the usb connector on the left, the bottom shadow is visible while is also the top one. Previously the bottom was not visible.
I was thinking maybe this is how the crystals are aligned like in a tn screen when looking from bellow the center screen the top starts to get darken, but from left to right not top to bottom on s8 plus.
I know it's not a tn screen but still, maybe this technology has a small drawback.
I went in 2 retail shops to check their displayed testing phones.
One of them had a smaller gray shadow on the right side than mine, but had a very faded red shadow on the left side. While the other seemed somehow equal on shadows, I couldn't figure it out better because of the blue neon lights in the store. The best can be seen at home during the night or in moderate day light. Anyway when I put my hands around the screen it seemed to have a bit more shadow on right side but less than mine, but no faded red on left side. Also I noticed that the white was different on all 3 of them, but this is not an issue.
Did someone else can also test this shadow behaviour if it is more pronounced on the right than on the left side and also if it's not visible at the bottom with the usb port at the right while is visible top and bottom with the usb connector on the left ?
Thanks

Physical buttons ( navigation bar ) out of the screen !! why not ?

Hi !
yeah ! all brands go for a new design for their phones with no bezels.
but the big problem's those big buttons at the bottom of the phone ( Navigation bar ) that spoils the beauty of this new design.
i don't know why we don't have any option for hide the navigation bar !! we are waiting for a new update frome LG for add this option.
Anyway, We know that LG likes to change the place of buttons like the LG G3 / G4 ... why not change the place of the navigation bar and put physical buttons on the side of the phone !! Or on the back !! Can be a touch buttons on the bottom ( on the border or on place of the speaker ).
and keeping the virtual buttons with an option for hide them for users who love their actual place.
This an idea that can succeed and can fail! If she succeeds we will enjoy with our screens without bezels.
what do you think !!
and sorry for my bad english !
There's plenty of room in the lower front bezel of the LG G6 to have left a dedicated area for either hard or soft buttons but they were going for a clean look, with screen-only soft buttons.
But adding navigation buttons on the edges of the phone are not a good idea because it's more likely they will be pressed accidentally. It was such a relief not to have the power button on the side of the phone as I used to press it accidentally all the time when I had the phone leaning against something to watch a video and I would press the volume button. I can only imagine what would happen with a home button on the side or bottom of the phone :-/
Yeah on an 18:9 ratio there is more then enough room for the buttons in my opinion. I much prefer them to physical or capacitive ones.

I remember the first oneplus phone has the choice of using on screen or off screen buttons, very nice option and wish more phones offered the choice.
