[Q] lg g3 text glow - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone with the g3 noticed any issues with text contrast issues where it looks like an old vga monitor that hadnt been auto adjusted? If there is black text on a grey or coloured background it has a white glow, if its white text on a dark background it has a black glow

From what ive read this appears to be due to the sharpness setting used so if anyone knows how to adjust the display sharpness that would be great

This is what Erica Griffin noticed on her phone a F400K I believe do you have the same model?

Can you post a zoomed-in picture in which this is apparent? I've heard of this problem but so far haven't seen it myself on any video or picture.

Here's the best I could get, taken with my M8

You can clearly see that in the screenshot I hope the UK version fairs better as that could be really off putting.

My model is the F400L

I will get my UK branded one later on today so will have a look at the same place you noticed yours and will see if it's the same or not.

hey Raider long time no see!
Mine is charging, I will check when I get to turn it on.

You can turn it on straight away.
There's absolutely no need to do any kind of "first charge" procedure on phones now.

I am not doing it because I have been told I have to, I am doing it because I am choosing to do so!
I tend to get 3-4 Flagship devices a year, on top of the ones I am sent as review units, I have my process - it might differ from yours but so be it

If that's what you choose to do, then that's totally up to you.
I just wanted to make sure you were aware that there's not any actual reason for you to do it; just in case you were only doing it because you thought you should or needed to .
Looking forward to hearing how you find the phone!

Had a bit of time with the phone now, installing apps (well watching Google auto-install my apps anyway) and there is a bit of glow, but it is no where near as bad as what Raider seems to have, its barely noticeable at all.
The colour contracts will take some getting used to, as it is very different to the nexus 5 that I have been using recently.

Same as me it's very hard to notice maybe it's an issue with the korean handsets only?

Possibly the UK version has newer update which reduces the issue? After all the Korean ones are all carrier branded

Ok. Now I see it. In person must be more visible and annoying.

I hear from a friend that has one that its not too bad except for on LGs menus and home screen. Its like they have added a border around thier text lables to make it "easier" to read.
My friend said it is not there with an aftermarket launcher (nova, ect). So it is an LG text setting and not a screen issue.
**If somone else here with an LGG3 could load nova to verify that would be nice.**

It would help if you could provide us with some pictures of your phone.
I think it's a common issue with SuperAMOLED. I had a screen burned with Galaxy S top bar, where the battery icon was. You just have to live with it...
took some pics but its not very obvious on camera - guess i'll just live with it didnt realise it was a problem with super amoled screens tho!
I would return the phone to get a warranty-replacement.
Never heard of screen burn with AMOLED-screens before. I have my Omnia7 since November and there isn't the slightest hint of a screen-burn yet.

Go to Samsung Galaxy S i-9000 area and Search "Screen burn". Theres plenty of threads and posts about screen burn. Also Wikipedia confirms OLED displays burn in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_burn-in#Plasma_.26_LCD_.26_OLED

Oh...I just knew that blue colour will fade with time, not that it can burn in. But this happens when something like a logo is displayed for hours every day. I doubt that this effect is meant to happen with a phone display that is off most of the time and when it's switched on it displays a lot of different pictures and apps.
Hmm...I would definitely try to get a replacement -I won't accept a burned in screen.
Blimey this is like Plasma Display burn-in all over again....
Glad I have an HD7 then
Returning a phone for repair is so much hassle tho it can takes aggess and may even lose all my data on the phone (hmm unless latest update has that backup thingy) i'll leave it for now see if it gets anyworse! Other super amoled people beware!
Bought my Omnia 7 in germany and have also experienced a small form of burn in when I am surfing the web.
The 2 circles leave a burn in when I slide up the IE options bar. This fades away over time and is the same type of behaviour as on plasma TVs.
I wouldnt worry much about it if it fades away. Turn off your phone and check if the marks are still there! I am certain that they wont be!
But if they are ... get it fixed.
Hi, just a suggestion... Try to enter LCD test via samsung codes.. Search on this forum for samsung codes..
Yes, screen burn in is common with Super AMOLED screens. However, you shouldn't have a problem unless you leave your phone on (set to the highest brightness with a static image visible) for hours on end.
I've seen a large number of Galaxy S screens with imprinted icons on them, and the reason for that was because they were left on for hours.

I see you are on orange. Any warranty claim i have had with orange has resulted in a new handset being at my door the following morning. Pretty quick service.
I saw this on the Display Focus at my local AT&T. they have the demo mode going, so when it's not being payed with on top it always says Windows Phone and it got burned on.

Burn-in is actually the end results of some pixels faded more than others. So, yeah, blue color will easily have burn-in effect since it only lasts about 2000 hours.
I know that retuning the phone for repair will cause you wait for ages but there is not another way for it..So you should copy your private data in your laptop or any other storage device .So it will be kept safe with you...
Well i had the worst combination then because i had the blue theme setting and i decided to keep my brightness on full! so thats what caused it then!

Exactly. On my Captivate (Android), I found most of the wall papers on Android are blue themed. In early days of Nexus One, it was reported that using a red theme not only saves your blue pixels but also saves battery.
In comparison (2,000 hrs of Blue pixel life), modern plasma TVs typically has 80,000 to 100,000 hours of phospher life. So, AMOLED/OLED screen is way to easy to get burn in. The only saving grace is most ppl already move on to new phones well before all these panel life span issues show up.
I've uploaded some pics! One is not much use, i was amazed how microscopic my cheap webcam was!!!! but still it woulds seem the dark patch is growing and hmm i didnt know that about the blue pixels! wont be using that again!

HOX, 2 different screens?!

I have 2 HOX's one bought last month and one i won yesterday, I was comparing them there after i recieved the new one, and they appear to have different screens.
Well i don't actually know if they are different, i have no way of telling other than comparing them side by side and the one i got yesterday seems to be much better and my older one the whites are abit greyer, like the differences with the sensation when that came out.
Not sure if you can tell the difference between the 2, i used a sensation to take the picture.
The one on the left is the newer hox with the better screen.

Sharp, Acer and Sony
My HOX screen looks like the one on the right and it's made in Taiwan (HT24.. serial number). It probably depends on where the phone was built.
Off topic, just curious but did you win this from the Androidandme.com contest?
My grey one is HT23YW and the white one is HT242W.
No i didn't win it from androidandme.
Thanks for that hamdir.

How we find out which one we use ?
For the sensation i used terminal emulator to find the screen manufacturer, but i can't seem to find it out on the HOX.
Any fastboot or adb commands?
I found out that my screen is the color on the right when comparing with my friend yesterday. It pisses me off tbh. When comparing,the color on my phone doesnt look white it looks yellowish. Annoying. Anything one can do about this?
My HT23Y looks like the right one

There are several threads about this... also how you can find out which one you have.
So basically leaving users who paid the same amoint of money with a less nicer screen is intended and in no way an error or so?

Do we actually know they use these panel-manufacturers? It's never been confirmed, as far as I know. And I've never seen a Sharp IPS, I think. So my guess it's something like Sony, Samsung (as the first article with microscope image on the one x display said it was, and at the same time confirmed IPS) and probably LG. But it's just speculation, but since I've never seen a sharp ips, I don't think they have updated they're factorys just for this. But if someone knows for sure these are the displays (and not because of past relations, we all know they used them in sensation) then I'm sorry.

I really feel bad with HTC because they sell 2 type of screen (1 better and 1 worse) with the same price. My friend bought it for me from France so i can not replace it. Damn. I'm really unhappy with yellower screen
I just have a question, would this display be replaceable if i were to go to the shop that sold it to me?

i think you can request for exchange a new one, they can not just replace the screen only

verizon replacement for pink/purple hue

i will check to see what kind of replacement they send me.
my current version has hboot that is still not unlocked and pink and purple hue. i might as well take the risk.
i am hoping for the lower hboot and no camera issue, wish me luck.
this post is just to show you guys what happens from using verizon.
Good luck! Last Blue one I got from VZW still had 4.2.2 and exploitable bootloader. But a nice dead pixel on the screen and jagged edges and huge ass gaps.

I have the blue BB version so they have replacements for them as well. The lower right hand corner has a big ass gap and you can feel the jagged edge when you run your finger along it. Also the screen and bottom grill has a big ass gap you can stand a playing card up in it trololol.

Use this http://219.80.249.25/IMEIQuery/IMEIQuery.aspx?ct=zh-CN and you can see your build date. The Blue HTC One's I got from Verizon were built on 9/25/13. Month later than the one I got from Best Buy. Seems the blue ones are phones set aside by the manufacturer for warranty exchanges I think.
Left one is from Verizon right is Best Buy. Bit yellowish on the screen from Verizon but people are saying that will go away as it can be attributed to the adhesive. There seems to be no difference in games and videos for coloration.

LG G4 display burns?

Hello i would really like your opinion about something wierd with my phone.
I have a LG G4 and after a while that the screen is alight I get display burns of the parts the didnt change in the screen and have a bright color (such as the clock and battery status, it also happens in games that i play which have the buttons displayed in bright color).
It calms down after a few minutes that the screen is turned of or i force it to display something diffrent in the burned parts
I'm having a video attached so you can see what i mean (in the video i spoke some language, please ignore)
In the video the burned parts are at the top and top left (the "share" sign)
youtube.com/watch?v=Gcl0NOHPL3w
(i cant post links..)
Is it a normal thing to have on a phone like LG G4 considering the type of screen it has(LED)?

Ive had 3 g series phones now g2 g3 g4. I have set my screen sometimes to not turn off. Some items displayed for more than a hour or 2. I have never had any screen burn on any of the g series. Some people claim they have i personally have not. My g2 was the closest to a screen burn. It had a cloudy type in white backgrounds. But found out it was hotspots in the phone that discolored the screen. I always tell people never the the same thing display more than 20 or 30 min shut off screen or goto something full screen to get rid of status bar icons. A phone is just like any other device or machine they do need periodic breaks too
any1 else think something about it?
i would like to get more ideas and opinions
u sure it's a permanent screen burn ?

i agree with you it is ANNOYING as hell!!! I returned mine 2 weeks ago not only because of this but also because i cannot see nor connect to a 5 GHz Wi-Fi network.
Just 2 months prior top this the phone killed itself (not even 1 year old) and had to get a new PCB. LG if you are reading this, i want my money back.

Who else has backlight bleed?

There have been a few reports on Reddit of backlight bleed in demo units. Personally, one of my Raspberry Rose units has the backlight bleed (between the home and app switcher buttons, aka circle and square) and the other does not. I created a form to get an idea if this issue is widespread (like the G2x) or if maybe it's just an early batch problem or it's really not a problem and just a few flawed units. Please contribute to the form either way, the more data the better.
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1...FaGANnb1DlA_gATnM9EYXKxg/viewform?usp=sf_link
For reference, this is a bad case of the backlight bleed:

Sorry! It's not noticeable on certain screens, seems like solid white/light gray is most prone to showing it. My G2x didn't have much bleed, but that had a whole class action lawsuit against it.

Light bleed is a complaint on a lot of devices even tv's.
I as well have the light bleed in that same exact spot. Yours looks a lot worse than mine though. To be honest, I think it's mainly an LG thing to have something slightly wrong with their displays. I've had their v10 and every flagship after that besides the v30 and they always had that slight light bleed issue

Yeah, but at least the V10/20 had a secondary backlight with a weird screen design to blame it on. I'd actually understand it more if the bleed on this one was around the notch, the bottom doesn't make much sense.

I think it does since the bottom is where all the ports are.
There's a tiny amount of backlight bleed on mine. Right at the bottom of the screen, just like in your picture. Just not nearly as bad. In fact, I didn't notice it until I went looking for it. Picked up a gray one from T-Mobile yesterday.
Just exchanged mine at TMobile. Exact location of bleed

Did it fix it?
I had a small mark at the exact same spot as the OP so I will be exchanging mine at Tmobile when they open in 2 hours.
In my experience, bleeding does spread over time. I am on Jump on Demand and will probably only keep this for less than 6 months but still, now that I have noticed the spot, it will drive me nuts.
Yep, new one is flawless
why is that more with the gray one ?
Well, thanks for that. Just realized I have one in the exact same spot, too. I don't think it will drive me nuts, but now I know it's there.
im on HK/SG set. my screen is perfect.. no such issue
I have the light bleed as well, I bought mine off craigslist and now I can't even walk into a store to exchange. So looks like I'm screwed and can't even exchange. And I don't know if LG will do anything if I contact them. They rejected my LG promise registration for 2nd year warranty since I didn't buy directly from an authorized retailer.

you should still have manufacturer warranty. you'll have to sent it into LG, but they'll have to fix it.

Thanks hopefully they do since I can't unsee the light bleed now.
