As you can see there are some strange dark layers on the screen (left side and in the middle).
Can anyone let me know how this can be fixed?
My phone is not under warranty so no option of replacement.

AW: Display Issues - Layers
It's something like a "amoled" feature. My gnex has the keyboard visible on a white background. Someone made an app that turned the brightness to 100% on a white background, that fixed it for some days/months.

My friend's nexus doesn't have it.
The issue is noticeable even at 100% brightness.

you cannot fix your issue with software. END OF STORY.
you can do a replacement, but you would have to pay for it. either pay someone to do it, or replace it yourself.

Would a screen replacement fix the issue?
If yes, how much would it cost?

it might. you also might get another bad screen.
no idea. amazon/ebay would be a good place to start for the screen by itself.

Hey. You have a screen burn. Try and get the screen replaced from a gray market shop. This is an issue with AMOLED screens. If you keep something on for too long, it creates an image burn on the screen.

Hmm.. this makes me sad face too as I used to call my ex (Randa) panda.. memories
It's funny how popular the nickname Panda is. I never realized.
We all got new devices recently, wife has a tablet also so she has not been on my case lately but Im still using a SGS.
Take it from a guy married for several years. Set up a date night really soon and dont touch your phone the whole time. Big time points to be earned!
Was it you or her that put the phone screen side down?

My nexus 5x screen is flickering like anything. can some one please help me what might be the issue. Is there fix for this by restoring to a factory image ? is this issue because of any hardware failure ?

Does the screen work outside the OS. In recovery for example?
I had a similar problem on a RedMi Note 3G after I applied too much pressure on the screen, now, I can't say if is exactly the same but if, then yes, it is hardware.
What did you do prior to this? Also can you get to recovery?
Your screen is damaged! Happens with me months ago while running, My sweat did this. My solution was a screen replacement
No it is not working any where. Not even in recovery. I tried to install a RR Rom using TWRP and when i tried to reboot after patching the rom, The screen started flickering. I thought it might be OS issue but i tried everything. I tried to restore to Stock OS & stock recovery using different tools but still I can't get the display properly.
Also my phone fell down while i was talking from my shoulder height. Nut that was a day before this happened.

In my case was water but in yours was other thing. Anyway, your screen (LCD) is damaged. I'm afraid you'll need a replacement
Thnks for the info.
Can you suggest me some links for the screen.

Or look look on the aliexpress, you may find it even cheaper than on ebay
Check Amazon for omnirepair part. That's who I used for mine and they are top notch. And they provide decent tool set and support that makes job much easier. Slightly more expensive but with it in my opinion. I've had no issues except one spot that is slightly brighter.

Strange permanent line on my screen.

Hello, I've noticed a strange line on my screen when the phone outputs dark content. The line is barely visible (on the photo it's bright because of my girlfriend's camera with nightmode).
With bright content I dont notice that line.
Depending on the refresh rate, the line seems to be more noticeable. (My feelings) 60hz = less / 144 = more.
Is this a hardware or software error?
Is there a way to fix it or is this a case for RMA?
Did someone else noticed such line on your phones display?
Thanks for your answers.
Best regards,
Dennis

mh.. whats wrong with the online support?
i sent a mail with my problems with some photos.. they replied:
"Hi there,i t is recommended to close “Low Brightness Splash Screen Protection” in "Settings-Display"."
i dont have this option and if i would, i dont think that would fix the problem... so i wrote back that i dont have this option....
silence since a week... even after 2 more support requests..
anyone experienced something like that with the support?

Their support is non existent. Good luck
I have a very similar issue but I'm not going to bother with contacting them as there's practically no point in doing so. It's definitely a hardware issue, unfortunately.

It's not SO annoying for me. I would keep it instead of RMA (Germany - China and back with covid and bla) if they can promise that the line will not have some follow up issues in the future.
BUT:
Not for the full price.
So. Any suggestions how else I get their attention?
Best regards
Dennis
