Hello XDA members,
I have noticed weird behaviour on Mi A1 stock Oreo.
Ghost images from previous notification and status icons is seen on status bar.
Initially I thought its launcher(official nova prime) issue and changed it(now lawnchair) but issue remains same.
Did anybody else also noticed this(attached image)?

That's screen burn in. You won't see them in the screenshot. Usually happens when you use your device with much more brightness, or you keep your screen on for a lot of time(usually more than 10 minutes).
If you don't do any of the above mentioned things, you should visit the nearest service center, because the screen might be faulty.
Its happens .. U can go to service centre and claim ur warranty. Nothing to worry. 2 of my friends already got it repaired. They changed lcd panel to something else. Both of them have Tianma display earlier
If is it a Tianma display the chances are good to be burn in.

How can I figure out if the display is "Tianma"?
And what does that even mean?

It's a brand. Most of them are colder tinted blue. EGGB brand is something more warm maybe yellow/green.
Type *#*#6484#*#* in dialer and go to" 1. Version Information". There you will see LCD: GFF, vendor: XXXXXXXXX
The XXXX thing is the brand.

Ilitek is EGGB. Focal is Tianma. Now you feel much safier
Apparently my friend has tianma too. But he isn't experiencing burn in. Can he still get his display changed?
Edit: I visited the service center with him. Those guys were noobs and didn't even know what a screen burn is. I explain them what it is. I even gave them a live demonstration, which worked and gave the burn. They still insisted that it's a software problem.

This is not as 100% sure that someone will have the problema with Tianma display but only more probable. I think that your friend or anyone have to use the smartphone as usual and if the problem shows up in warranty period then go change the display. Don't care too much about it because is more probable don't have it.

I have seen a few YouTube uploads and other users describing that during the edge tint adjustment the phone reboots and a blue screen appears with an animation that resembles some kind of firmware adjustment.
I don't get that blue screen and don't notice any difference adjusting the red tint that for me appears in the top of the phone.
Would like to hear if the adjustment worked even without that blue screen or other thoughts about this issue.
if you check local "red tint" thread (and it's huge), nobody had experienced any extra blue or other screens or double reboots (like the instructions on the Edge adjustment screen state). also, just like you, many don't notice any changes after adjusting the edges color temperature and rebooting. so either that "extra" adjustment screen was Korean update specific or Samsung has butchered international update. or, which is even worse, many screens are just defective and beyond any software fix.
Me either
Yeah, I'm also facing this issue either. So bad that our unit didn't get that blue screen and edge screen still red.:crying:

Ditto here. Actually, it was the second time I did the calibration that I got the blue screen with some white Android figure (didn't really pay much attention), and a reboot. Fix was effective at changing screen edge tint...which I'd likely never have noticed had there not been all these threads re same. VZW S8+ here.

Okay , yeah I've read the thread shallowly, I can't remember anyone posting that it worked and mentioning a blue screen, so that's why I made a separate thread to hear more in detail if someone got it working and if that includes seeing a blue screen. My suspicion is that the update is flawed and maybe doesn't apply the changes to all the units.

so the first time you did it there was no blue screen? just for science, can you do it few more times with different slider setting and see if you get it again?

So the first time it didn't appear right? Did you notice any change in edge tint that time tje blue screen didn't appear?
That gives me some hope at least , I've tried applying it in Safe Mode but that didn't work either.
The "blue screen" you guys keep mentioning is when the display driver IC itself is reflashed with different calibration values, it isn't just slapping a software overlay.
My edges are fine, but just as a test, I set them warmer and the phone displayed the blue screen as expected, and the edges became warmer, I set it back and the same happened.

the problem is, only few people get that screen on reboot hence no edge color changes are observed.

No, no blue screen the first time, IIRC. Again, I really didn't pay that much attention, but I may have done the process a second time as I didn't notice either much change or a change that I was happy with the first time. But, it did definitely change the edge "tinting", and I then switched back to amoled cinema from adaptive, so perhaps moot.
Hey guys! My device was having screen burning problem so I went to the service centre and they replaced it with the new display panel.The recent one was tianma and now they put ilitek one.It is working fine but it has very warm screen temperature,it's just unbearable.I tried many applications to apply blue tint to my screen but they just mess up the colours while correcting the whites.
So is there something we can do to improve the display quality?
And is there anyone who faced the burning problem with ilitek displays,I searched everywhere but only tianma displays seems to be affected.
(To know about the display vendor dial - *#*#64663#*#*)
I have ilitek and its not having issues.

Don't have another Mi A1 with another LCD vendor to compare it with!
I have 2 devices, one with Ilitek and other one with Tianma, comparing those two the one with Ilitek has more natural colors, for me the one with Tianma screen is too cold.
I dunno about the quality of your lcd panel, but mine is ilitek too, and i find the colors just fine. Yes it's a bit on the warm side, but it's ok. Color accuracy and contrast is good too.
Actually i only notice its warm tone when viewed side by side another phone with colder tones
How much does ilitek LCD panel costs?

So, I am 1 unlucky in 1000 who has a tianma lcd panel and facing screen ghosting since one month after buying the Note 7. Is there any software fix for this? I heard Redmi note 4x has similar issue. It doesn't affect performence but unpleasing to the eyes. I am not looking forward to replace the lcd as the phone us still brand new. It is imported, so there’s no way to return it. Thanks in advance.
Same thing is happening to me, sadly... Don't think there's a way to solve this through software, as it's a hardware issue
Bought Redmi Note 7S (Lavander) Onyx Black 4GB/64GB Yesterday , Faced Touch Ghosting.
Edit : Requested For Replacement * From Flipkart.

Actually, I did a little goof. Turns out I have a BOE panel instead of Tianma which is good, but even on that panel, I still get some ghosting... so I can't imagine how bad it must be for the worst panels Guess that's what you get when you cheap out on a phone

Wouldn't I need to pay for the replacement? Or if covered under warranty as it's a manufacturing issue?
So basicly even if you replace the phone under warranty, you will get the same panel and the ghost screen will be there again after some use?
you can use this tips to modify the display color a little, to minimize the ghosting effect.
I have tianma with pretty nasty retention, and modifying the display kcal does the job.
**You need use custom kernel with kernel manager or simply a LOS-based ROM to apply this mod.
I have tianma, everything just looked fine, this is only "things" , not she or he , so for me just use it
Fix for now
I thought I was the only one. Bought this device from China and started having this issue after around 4 months.
The problem does not occur with pitch black wallpaper.
I did some research and found this app (Ghost screen).
It's not in play store.

Solution in Pixel Experience Rom
I found a workaround in the pixel experience rom without any apps .
Go to Settings > Display > Live display > Colour Calibration > and set all 3 values to 92.
Weird. I have a Tianma display, yet I am not experiencing any noticeable ghosting. Maybe your screen is faulty.

How about checking screen calibration? Try custom calibration settings.
This looks like normal variation to me. OLED suffers this issue.
I tried display calibration but I don't reach a good result, it's Always yellow/pink
Icon pack? Very strange...
I don't know if all oled have this problem, but it seems less brighter also.. probably is normal

After having read some information, here is what it is about 2 problems encountered and quoted.
The screen tint defect has also been reported repeatedly by other buyers on Twitter and Reddit.
Some users (especially in the first smartphones received) had the misfortune to get "defective" models. These people have been unlucky enough to have their screens turn green, while for others it's dead pixels around the front camera.
These failures seem to affect mainly models from India at the moment. It could be that this problem is localised, as the Indian units are distributed locally and do not affect other markets
This problem of green tint on screens is not uncommon and has already been encountered on other smartphones with an OLED screen. They are sometimes subject to this problem which has been corrected in the past via simple updates.
The best solution if the problem persists is still to contact the brand for a replacement model.
I already contacted but am still awaiting an answer. Let's hope for the best.

First of all, that F3 with dark theme looks absolutely awful, wouldn't use it as a benchmark
Secondly, looks like it really is a local problem. Have not heard any problems in EU, my phone arrived yesterday and the display panel is good

That's too bad. I quess there is more variations with the panels because the manufacturer is not as good as Samsung.
If I'm nitpicking, I can also see some dirty screen effect in grey colors at very low brightness levels. But that is a minor setback. If the phone feels 90% of the time as a 800€ phone and 10% as a 350-400€ phone, I'll take it.
