[Q] Something under my screen.

Does some people have the same problem as I have?
There seems to be something underneath my glass screen. Looks like scratches, but its between the bezel and the beginning of the screen.
Some pictures about my case:

Nothing there if I turn on my screen :

Stuck pixels? Had it happen on my n10. Looked like dust under the glass when the screen was off & couldn't see it when the screen was on. Stuck pixel remover worked for me.

It is not in the screen, it's below the screen. I think there are no pixels there.

Probably a defect in the glass bonding... contact the carrier or LG and see if you can get it replaced. That's what the 1 year warranty is for...

I'm scared to lose my phone for 3 weeks and they say: it's your own fault (it's not, I didn't drop it once) and after that I need to pay the research and transport costs.
And if I want to get it fixed, it will me a lot more!
Going to the carrier shop tomorrow. Let's hear them out.

What model is it and what is your carrier? Most carriers handle this type of return w/o issue.

Speaking of the N10, at least it's not an ant.?
Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.

Replacement G2 seems to have a different screen??

I got my original at&t g2 warranty replaced by at&t. After boxing up the original and shipping it off, I noticed the new phones screen seem to be different. Seems this grid is easily visible and I don't remember ever seeing this on the other phone. If it was on the other phone it wasn't nearly as easy to see as on this one.
Is this normal because I don't think the other phones screen was like this? Is this a referb that they used a different screen on?

Its normal, usually you can only see it in pretty bright rooms or outside in the sun

Dial ##786#, view detail, then scroll down to reconditioned status. It will say yes if refurbed.

Nothing, what I put in disappears after the last "*"

You need to find the rtn code for AT&T, sorry I never had at&t

I have the same grid on my freshly delivered upgraded g2, so it's probably normal.

Yep, had that the first couple of days on mine as well. I can't tell if my screen protector is doing a good job of hiding it, or it just went away after a couple of uses, but it seems to be gone now.

"Phone" app draining battery.

Hello, this problem all started back when I was getting Google play services wakelock and battery drain on 4.4 CM. This led me to updating to 5.1.1 lollipop CyanogenMod which I switched from because I thought it was a problem with the ROM, so now I am on 5.1.1 PAC man ROM and the problem is still persisting. Here are screenshots of my gsam battery stats and the problem only occurs the phone app is used (I receive a call or place a call) and it doesn't happen everytime for example I can sometimes place 5 calls before the app starts to show up in gsam and it makes my phone ridiculously hot. If I turn the phone off for 10 minutes and turn it back on the problem will go away but no matter what it comes back. I'm hoping you guys can help me find a legitimate fix to this problem because my 7500mah battery is dying faster than the stock one when this problem is occurring.

Use a different ROM, no reason to buy a new phone.

That will be my last resort LOL. Reason why I rooted this thing in the first place. Between the TV my dad bought that broke in 3 years and all the problems unrelated to me this phone has had (USB port broke, screen defect that made the phone unusable, and now this) I will never buy Samsung again. Can't wait to get my lg g4

Fast. T-Mobile. Com my data speeds are 1-3mbps normally see 35+ . I called T-Mobile to no avail. I thought GPRS WAS 2G?

I'm pretty sure that as long as the APN settings are correct, it doesn't matter what the actual APN is named. Are you on an unlimited plan and if so do you consume a lot of data each month? They may have slowed you down temporarily if you're in your area's peak hours.

I have same settings but it's LTE, that's the proper setting. Worry not the name

Ok thank you all and I'm on unlimited but have been on WiFi.. I know my note 4 pulls 35+ down but this nexus is barely getting 1mbps.... Customer service tried to say unlocked devices may not receive the same speeds etc

Its rare that a Customer Rep would know the correct answer, you'll get 10 different answers from 10 Rep's!

I changed my apn from default to the Nexus 6 settings....a quick Google search will take you to the T-Mobile support page. Haven't had an issue, except sometimes mms doesn't send, and I'll get duplicate messages especially from my girlfriend's iPhone 6s plus

"LIT" for 4G - what does that stand for?

Hi guys. Since the other day, every time my phone connects to the 4g network, the status bar doesn't show a 4G sign anymore, but a strange "LIT" sign (screen attached).A Google search doesn't explain nothing about it, so I ask you: what does that stand for? Do I have to worry? Tried GravityBox and Substratum to revert back to the 4G sign, but didn't work.
If this can help, LIT began to show up more or less after I played with ADB to hide my tethering activities from my carrier ("settings put global tether_dun_required 0" from cmd). Nothing changed apart from that, network speed seems the same to me. Stock ROM, 8.1 July patch

Maybe it means "LTE" but in a different language
What language did you set your phone?

My phone is set in Italian, but I've honestly never heard about any LTE translations in my language

I’ve hidden tethering using adb as well, and it still displays as LTE for me.

Maybe your LTE signal is just "lit".

In my opinion it is just undiscovered bug. Guess only flashing stock ROM in MiFlash fixes it.
Or maybe you can ask your carrier or operator about that?

I'm a heavy customizer, I just clean flashed the other day and flashing again and re-rooting bothers me. Guess I'll just keep it this way, as long as it doesn't affect my network performance it's just fine - it even gives some swagger to my phone, as some of you noticed lol
