[Q] Black Blobs under Screen

I just got my Galaxy s2 and i've noticed some odd black blogs on the screen. They are only visiable in lower lighting while on darker screens. They arent dead pixels, its like... on the inside of your windshield on your car, if you wipe a little spot it looks like the glass is kind of smokey and then super clear where you wiped, thats what this looks like but smaller. So there are all these black spots under the glass on my phone.
i did read an article on suction cup prints, light spots, finger prints and so on on the inside of these displays..
i've already contacted support on it and they need me to send back this one and then they will send out my new one since im still in my 14 day remorse period.
Just wanted to know if anyone else has noticed/had this problem?

Yes, I just spoke to Tmobile and they said I could exchange in store since I'm within remorse period.
I'm going tomorrow

I had the same issue on my first GS2. I returned it and got a 2nd GS2 with a perfect screen with no vertical lines or black blobs issue. Good luck!

Looking closely at mine in a very dark room while starting a youtube, I noticed it. Didn't think I had it but I guess I do. I notice it for a split second when the video is about to start. Another way I saw it was there is a bug with the status bar brightness control. Sometimes the screen goes dark when trying to lower brightness. When that happens, you will see the blobs on the screen. It has to be real dark too. I did it under the covers at night. Really gotta look close. I had blobs or black and just lines everywhere.

T989 Screen issues.
I upgraded to the T989 Galaxy S II and found the same issue on it. You will notice that the backlight isn't right. It's brighter than it should be - gives a fuzzy glow. There are also black blotches on the screen...all over it actually. Enough to annoy you when you are trying to watch a movie in the dark. I returned that one thinking ok maybe it's just that one. My second one...SAME ISSUE. Even worse this time...there were verticle lines running top to bottom. Quite visible lines.
On the first return, the Tmobile reps compared my T989 with my i9100 while viewing a blank black screen (can be produced by taking a photo with your phone against your jeans or shirt then viewing it in full screen). They confirmed the issue to be true.
On the second return, other Tmobile reps also compared the T989 with my i9100 and confirmed the issue as well. One rep had a T989 and hers also had the issue. I then checked the store display model. Same issue as well.
If this is something you can live with, then just keep it. It doesn't seem to happen clearly if you turn your brightness above max or don't watch movies or use the phone in the dark.
There is a significant color difference between the T989 and i9100. The color of the message bar was compared between the two. The i9100 showed a true blue while the T989 had a faded/greenish blue tint to it. The difference is noticable in any brightness. Keep in mind that both phones have SUPER AMOLED PLUS screens.
I'm assuming all the T989s have this issue due to the manufacturer having messed something up during production.
If you would like to contact me for more information regarding my experience with this issue, please email me at : [email protected]ase do not ask me to run any test on the T989 for I have since returned it to the store and will never buy another T989. I'm sticking with my original i9100 Galaxy S II.

I had the black blobs on my first device.. Returned it and my second device is PERFECT. Beautiful screen, no blobs, couldn't be happier. Love this phone! Best Android device I have ever owned.. And I'm a very picky person.

What is the date on the box of your 2nd device? I've got two phones 9/28 and 9/29 and both have blotches and vertical lines like in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18676273 . The 9/28 is worse. I've heard that 10/1 and beyond devices have fixed this manufacturing defect. Can you please confirm?

This seems to be a common issue with Samsung's amoled screens. I've owned two Vibrants, a Captivate and now the Tmobile GSII and all of them have displayed this issue. If you get one without the blobs then you really got lucky.

One X Build Quality Issues

Decided to start to start a new thread for people to discuss any build quality problems with the One X as I feel a little underwhelmed with mine. The power button doesn't seem to have any feedback click and only seems to register input if you press it hard, the screen surround has a bit of excess plastic sticking out on the top left side that I keep catching my finger on and the phone flexes and creaks when pressure is applied in certain areas (when held to my ear during a conversation creaks like an old bed!).
Is anyone else getting these problems? I might send it back as the creaking during phone calls is driving me nuts :/

good idea ill post this here too
just wondering anyone with the white version suffering from suspected hardware/build quality problems?
maybe they rushed the grey we didn't even see the final retail version until very late

Wondering the same.. I intend on ordering a white one once this douche finally pays for my Note.

The build quality issues I have are with the white version.

ok colors theory seems off
now, build, anyone with an Asian version with issues?

color? where is it made?

Mine is made in Taiwan. In the past the UK has normally got Taiwanese HTC phones and the rest of the EU having Chinese made ones. But as this is a new model, the initial batches may all be from Taiwan. I would expect Taiwanese made handsets to be slightly better in terms of quality.
I don't have any creaking or bits of unfinished plastic. Mine is white. I do see a couple of tiny imperfections in the white plastic. One is like a tiny grey dot. And the other is a tiny hole. But I am being very very fussy to notice this.
I do wonder how durable this polycarbonate surface is...if you rub at it to clean it, does it take the matt finish off making it shiny? (xperia S is AWFUL for this)

very good ,up you !!!

The creaking on mine is most noticeable when applying pressure to the top right of the handset. Does anyone else get creaking when squeezing this area between thumb and forefinger?

Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

I've a grey one that I picked up from t-mobile store. I've put on a different thread the issue I have with screen ripples on the side when pressure is applied but its actually much worse as what has happened is that the phone screen pops in and out of the casing in the top right and left corners and noticeable can be pushed and clicked in. Phone hasn't even been in my pocket yet...Will be swapping it out then.

Is the screen loose as if its not been glued properly because that's how my one is. But yeah I get a creaking and clicking noise
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

Yeah it's as if the screen hasn't been fixed correctly. Mine also has those screen artifacts when pressing in the top right. Feels like the screen is loose.

Received my grey one x today.
the phone works like a charm only there is one big issue with the camera
everywhere I aim it the screen gets covered with red stripes. Now I don't know much about camera's but this is not good
dl . dropbox . com/u/71154395/IMAG0017 . jpg (i'm new here so can't post a pic)
This does not appear on the front camera so i guess its hardware issue with the back camera?
What do you guys think? should I return the phone?

Not good to hear build issues

I wouldn't expect great build quality from HTC, it'sa never been high for the last few top of the line HTC phones I owned. That was the reason I went with Samsung phones and it was such a change for better, the parts are just put together so much better. It's not about parts quality, but build quality.
Now I'm back to HTC getting One X (replacing G Nexus) but I fear I will see those little things not done right again. Sometimes its creaking case, sometimes it's the screen that has not been put in perfectly in leaving more space between screen edge in one side than the other side, or that dust I used to get under the screen (happened with both phones).

I think the most annoying thing is all the reviews harped on about how the One X has premium build. Hoping I'll get a replacement that's better put together than this one!

Maybe they were all "sponsored".

Mine (White) has no squeaking/creaking issues. The glass seems to be solidly attached to the body.
I do have a problem with the finish of the polycarb body. On the left side of the body, right below the micro usb, there's a small spot in where you glide your finger you will feel some roughness. There's also a tiny tiny hair like specimen which seems to be glued on the body. Its not noticeable so im cool with it.

LCD ripples is not on all One Xs but like half of them and i dont think its a problem just a trait of one of the LCD sources, it doesn't ripple on the ones i tested unless u try very intentional pressure on the sides of the device
my cousin's one x been running for a week more than me, the screens are nearly 95% identical except mine is a little more yellow, both warm calibrated
since i opened mine yest, yellow white is getting less and less and more even, im anticipating to match my cousin phone, i think its just the lamination glue mate settling in
will confirm later if my theory is right

iphones used to have this kind of problems..it went away after the phone has been used for a couple days

I have mentioned this elsewhere but after seeing so many HTC One Xs, the colour temperature of the display varies very much from unit to unit. I had one that was pinkish, one that was yellowish, one that was greenish, one that was bluish. And they even vary how they perform at high brightness and low brightness scenes. I just think its a lottery which one you get. I don't think the tolerances are very tight. It may change as it ages. I am not sure if glue is relevant to this type of panel. It is more likely the "white" LEDs changing slightly in the first 50 odd hours of use. Also, you should take a photo from a camera with a fixed white balance setting now then at 1 week, then 2 weeks etc. It may just be that you are getting used to it, so a photo record will be useful for that.

thanks for the encouraging replies. we will see if the yellowish warm color of the screen will be normal in time.. by the way the screen is outstanding even with the yellowish problem.. what more if its corrected.

Ring of Yellow Spots on Screen (White Background)

Has anyone seen a ring of yellow spots on around the screen when view on a white background ? or am I the only one holding a lemon?
the yellow spots doesn't seem to hamper normal operation so i haven't really bang any tables at HTC yet but it is disturbing for a brand new device.
i'm also hoping this is the glue that is holding the screen to the phone and it wil eventually dry up and disappear like Samsung S2

Thanks for posting.
On my 3rd trip to have my second unit replaced, the third one had a huge yellow spot that's visible on the welcome screen (HTC). It's located at the upper left corner. It's interesting to note however that I did not notice yellow spots on the first two units.
The store I went to only had three on stock, and all of 'em had "cosmetic" defects. The third one having the yellow spot and a silvery dot inside the glass that's not part of the LCD nor the bezel. Dunno where that came from.
Cancelled my purchase and I guess will just hold off on buying a new one 'til HTC can sort their sh** out.

my dad got the HTC one v a few days ago..it had one yellow spot in the corner
..so i had it replaced & the new one doesn't seem to have any such yellow dots
after 3days of use..hope it stays that way

Today when I was browsning on a white homepage I noticed this as well. But it's so little that I don't see it as problem.

i bought a 2nd unit for my dad and it had the SAME problem .. yellow dots all around the sides of the screen. I'm suspecting that it's the glue that's holding the screen. it's not a functional issue but looks ugly that's all. Now considering if I should return both sets to HTC.

starting to see people reporting these yellow spots .. i'm hoping these spots will disappear with use but doesn't seem to be.

I went to replace the 2 phones at the service center yesterday and they wouldn't commit to a 1-1 replacement claiming they need to get "management" approval. They also won't confirm that the new replacement phones will solve the problem saying that the replacement phones (if given) comes straight from the warehouse.
will update what happens when i receive the new phones.

okay .. i just got back one of the phones (for some strange reasons, both my replacement phones are coming in from different sources and different schedules) and it DOESN'T have the yellow spots !!
crossing my fingers that the 2nd phone will not have any yellow spots as well.

it knew it was too good to be true .. the 2nd phone HAD the same yellow spots. But now i know HTC is capable of phones without the yellow spots, i called HTC Support and rejected the yellow spots. I just wish there is a way to blow up this matter and make HTC take more responsibility and attention into this matter. the issue seems worst then i thought it would be.
#1. Brand New Phones 2 Sets - Yellow Spots
#2. Replacement Phone (1 Set) - Yellow Spots
Now waiting for HTC call center to get management approval to get a replacement phone for my replacement phone for the SAME yellow spot issues.

Suddenly i have spots on the bottom screen wth :/

Yellow dots at bottom
..

I returned the first phone I received because it had a faulty touch screen and the yellow spots.
The new one I got still has yellow spots but the touch screen atleast works.
Also, almost every one I know who owns a HTC One V has these yellow spots, just some of them have not noticed.

I have been using HTC One X for over a week now. When I got it first, I noticed the yellow spot right away on left bottom corner. It was specially visible in White/grey background.
I found a pressure point just beside the yellow spot. When I gently pushed that area with tip of my nail the yellow spot would disappear. Although it would come right back when I release the pressure.
I kept doing it for days and guess what now yellow spot is almost gone...maybe 5% left or maybe its just me now
Let me know if this works for any one. Good luck

I have the exact same problem (at the same spot - bottom left)
I tried what you did and the yellow spot disappears when I press it, but goes back when I release. I'll try to do that for a couple of days, let's see if it works.

the first 3 sets of HTC ONE V had yellow spots .. only the 4th set did not have yellow spots .. that's a 75% fallout rate .. don't try to help HTC ... DEMAND FOR A NEW PHONE with a WORKING SCREEN that YOU DESERVE !!
I'm trying to get a replacement for the 3rd SET of BRAND NEW HTC ONE V from HTC but they are giving me all sorts of excuses.

Yellow spot on screen

Hello
I have asus zenfone 2 ze551ml,
My screen shows yellow spot on the right side, the more phone is hot, the more sharp it is,
Also it is more visible on white page than dark one.
Can anyone help me ....
Thank you.

Anyone can help !!!!!!

I have a yellow stripe on the left side of the screen, especially on white backgrounds too. It's visually similar to old crt monitors that would burn in. It appeared only recently (last month, when my device is 6 months old), and I'm assuming it is just bad quality screen... No idea how to get rid of it.

Same yellow line left side about 25mm long and 4mm width.
I thought it happened after I flashed some Rom, with thermal bugged kernel.

Exactly as you described! But I've only been on stock rom, so I think rom is unrelated.

Same here, yellow spot on bottom left corner, I think that the problem is related to the glue under the glass. Someone should try to put the display under a UV lamp for some minutes

just out of curiosity.... does it look similar to this picture?

Yes m8, exactly. Though your case is kinda awful so dark and ugly. Mine's still bright yellow, but I'm afraid it's a matter of time. Have you noticed what makes it goes darker?

no didnt notice, mine started off barely noticeable at the top, and within a month it was like that.
i sent it off for warranty repair yesterday though.

Wow, thanks for that pic darkmage1991. I saw a faint yellow line on mine in the exact same place as yours. Mine is really faint but I thought I saw something there a couple days ago then noticed it more now. I guess I'll have to watch mine and once it gets worse file a claim, what a bummer. My phone is all stock too so it's not a software issue.

its been truly bad like that for a week or so, but just now just bit the bullet and filed the RMA, but i gotta say i kinda feel like the area behind that part of the screen felt warmer, maybe someone else could verify that by opening up a demanding app like a game and seeing if that spot on the device gets warmer than the rest(maybe thats where the cpu or heat spreader is located?)
i first chatted with support about it to make sure it was covered cause just like any other device dead pixels are not covered under warranty and i wanted to make sure they didnt classify this as a dead pixel problem(even though i knew its not related they still may classify it under the same argument)
i sent the asus rep the picture of the screen and they said it was covered and made the RMA for me.
i will update the thread when i hear back from them or get my phone back, just so the info is out there if asus fixes it.

Same issue here, my screen had a very faint yellow spot on the top right corner. I also noticed that back part of the screen tends to get hot quickly. Right now the spot is almost invisible, so I think I should wait a couple of days before calling for a RMA.

figured i would update with my experience. i received my phone back on tuesday from being repaired for this same issue. they replaced it under warranty no questions asked and the phone looks brand new now. but the repair process did take 2 weeks though. from the time i sent it off to the time i had it back in my hands. so i would say there turnaround is about 6-7 days+3 days shipping back to you.

Great help

figured i would update with my experience. i received my phone back on tuesday from being repaired for this same issue. they replaced it under warranty no questions asked and the phone looks brand new now. but the repair process did take 2 weeks though. from the time i sent it off to the time i had it back in my hands. so i would say there turnaround is about 6-7 days+3 days shipping back to you.
