I have similar problem, screen retention is sometimes visible, sometimes not. I've already tried using an app which simply displays a set of colors for 15 minutes and I've tried not using my phone for a few days, but it didn't went away, unfortunetaly, the problem is still here.

Some colors turned green and grey

Hi guys! I really wish that I captured my screen picture to show you guys what I meant. Well anyway... here is what happened earlier today.
I was thinking "hey, I downloaded this netflix app but never used it even once, let me try it."
So i opened the app, but i guess because I was on cell phone network, it took kinda longer to show all the pictures of the movie list (but i still could click the box, if you know what im saying) so I click on one of the frame (still without the movie thumbnail picture) and it showed some error message. so I was like "okay, let me try another movie then." so I clicked on another movie and the Netflix loading screen came on the screen (netflix logo with red background), and out of the sudden, the red background turned into green background, then the movie started but the picture was wierd (only gray and green color if i remember correctly), so i thought "okay, maybe it is just visual effect." after a minute or two i exited the app, and found out that my phone's background picture color was also turned into green and gray.
has this ever happened to you guys? if it ever happened to you guys, what was that all about? was it software or hardware glitch?
thanks
Yes this happened to me this morning!
My reds turned green and the greens turned blue. (The green battery indicator in the status bar looked ICS blue)
Also some other colours looked pink.
It kind of looked like it was in 256 colour mode.
It scared the sh!t out of me. I thought my screen had busted.
I rebooted and everything was OK.
I don't know what caused it. I just looked at the screen and noticed it.
I know, same here. I was so freaked out yesterday. I hope someone that knows some information willing to share here. I just hope it wasnt a hardware thing.
happened with me once .. after a reboot it's gone
Just happened to me abour 10mins ago...
sorta weird. . . I have a large number of cyan/green colors on my homescreen/widgets and they all turned blue. The live animated wallpaper turned purple...
rebooted and now it's back to normal....
yeap, so far hasnt come back yet (knock knock knock). hopefully it will never come back anymore.

Nexus 4 Home Screen Flashing.

So Today I was just out with friends when I took my phone out and realized the display kept flashing , not like flashes of white but the display seemed like it the color in the screen kept flashing, I rebooted my phone and it kept doing the same thing. After the third reboot it was back to normal, My question is has anyone experienced this before?

I experienced the same thing a couple of days ago, luckily I haven't had problems since.
Try to turn off auto brightness and check again.
Are you using stock firmware/kernel or modded?

Bone stock, It seriously seemed like the Display was going to die. Right after it just blacked out.

[Q] Screen Problem SGH-1337

So, just recently I had a problem with the phone when I tried turning on the screen but instead got small coloured pixels and the screen started glowing green. When I rebooted it rebooted normally but the screen stayed the same. It seemed like everything else but the screen display was working. Don't know if that makes sense to you guys. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Only problem I encountered with S4 wqs straight out of the box after connecting to a genie to transfer data for a customer the screen on the S4 just went haywire and snowy like an old tube tv. Other than that haven't seen anymore screen issues.

That's exactly how the screen looked. Do you have any idea how it could occur?

Honestly didn't happen till it was connected to the Genie. Other than that I am clueless.

Similar screen death problem
I have had an AT&T Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 for 2 weeks and love it. I was having a battery drain issue but powering off and back on seemed to fix it (also I am no longer ending the Google Play Music process from the Task Manager which may have caused the common "Media Server" battery drain I was having).
But today, I had a similar problem as the OP =(
Unlocked my phone (using the pattern to unlock) and it lagged as it tried to display the home screen. When the home screen showed up, the colors immediately went whacky, all white-washed and faded, then a half second later and the screen went black. Screen completely dead.
I can still hear sounds from the phones and see the status light so I know the rest of the phone is still working. It responds to me unlocking the phone and pressing the home, back, and settings button.
I will be taking my phone back to AT&T this evening but just wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions or solutions. I will post an update after visiting AT&T.

Active Display Issues

I am having trouble with the active display on my moto x 2013 lately.
The digits appear broken. They don't render completely. Some times they overlap.
I have tried factory reset but the issue still persists.
I have attached a screen shot of the problem I am facing.
Has anybody faced this issue before?
Looking for some assistance on how to fix this issue.
I have a similar issue where numbers start to overlap each other. I think it happens between 9-10AM most of the time if I remember correctly. Never bothered taking a picture but I might now that someone else is having a similar problem.

Mine is not restricted to a given time of the day. It happens randomly. I tried deleting cache, doing factory reset. it would fine for some time.
A strange problem

It's obvious not that serious of an issue but this is a terrible attitude to have about something you use daily and paid actual money for.
you are right,
but if it is still under warranty sent them to repair.
this is simplest solution :silly:
I have a bug too with AC: the 1st digit of the hour sometimes is 0 instead of 1, so when it's 17:34 i see 07:34, not always but it's annoying.
I've noticed mine only a few times, usually with the hours, not the minutes. I do specifically remember one time I woke up and looked at my phone, saw it says "1:00" and I was upset that I had slept in so late, but was very tired so I went back to sleep (it was already late, so what's another hour?). When I woke up later it was only 11:45. I guess it was actually either 10:00 or 11:00 when I woke up the first time, and the display was glitched for a moment. A reboot usually fixes it when issues persists.
I've also noticed that sometimes the Active Display does not vibrate when I touch it, or the lock ring will show up but no clock or notifications, even when they are pending and showing on the screen. If I touch the center of the screen the only icon I see is the bottom unlock, no notification text or the clock up top. Once I unlock it seems to flush it out and work fine after that. Lastly, sometimes the screen brightness gets goofy and seems much brighter than it should be, but it's rare.
If your phone is doing this a lot (I've noticed the clock issues maybe 10 times total over the last 14 months or so), I would look at getting it repaired or replaced.
mine actually just started doing this too. In my case the 1st digit after the : is not there. only seems to happen, or I only notice between 7am and 8am. usually unlocking fixes it, sometimes I need to restart.
Mine did this for the first time a few days ago. At 11:14 the active display said 1:141. I clicked the power button and it hasn't happened since.

Problem with samsung galaxy S3 Neo (Possibly display or gpu related?)

Hello, yersterday night my phone was working perfectly fine, but this morning when I woke up I saw the display turned pink with 4 black stripes, I cant post pictures links, but I uploaded it to imgur.com / gsiX0m0.jpg (no spaces)
So, I reseted the phone in case that would fixt but since then I cant access, when I press the central button the screen turns on perfectly fine with normal colors and the touchscreen working, but after 2 or 3 seconds the screen turns pink agai and I cant click on it, atfer turning pink it starts to fade it away slowly (or some times it just turns off and auto resets instantly) and I have to wait around other 10 minutes to be able to turn it on again for other 2 or 3 seconds.
Any idea what this could be?
Also my computer is not detecting it...
Thank you very much and I hope some one is able to help me.

Thats weird & sad. Did you manage to reset the phone? Are you rooted? Do you have xposed or any screen dimming app installed?

I think your gpu is damanged. If you still have warranty then send it back and let it repair.

xXPR0T0TYPEXx is probably correct, but i would recommend that you try another battery if you have one available before sending it back.
