Visible touch grid ? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi to everyone.
I've just bought my Lg G4. It was second time, and the same issue. I don't know what I have to do
I see touch grid on bright wallpapers and colors, mostly bright like white bright blue etc. It's annoying because it's second time that I have the same problem, earlier lg was resend. SN is 602 and 1.1 version. This is visible under the sun and off screen. Lines are mostly horizontal when we hold phone vertically.
This is problem with original foil protector or new G4 have problem with that? Please help me. Thank you in advance.

I see em on mine too its the digitizer grid. Not a problem normal just another anoyance from lg. But its good. G2 and g3 the digitizer was on the outside so if the glass cracked or even got a deep scratch the touch screen quit working the diffrence with g4 is the digitizers under the glass. So a cracked glass the screen should stil respond. Like i said normal just an anoyance. Mines real bad in the sun but. Thats the only thing i can think of with it.

Is this a sign that my screen will be going bad soon?

I have a Tilt 2, and just recently noticed that when the screen is off, a section of the screen has the "rainbow like warp color". Its not oil or grease, it wont wipe off so the problem must be in the screen, though it looks like its on the surface. However, I do not notice any degradation when the screen is on. Everything color wise and everything looks normal.

Should I be worried about this? Is this a sign that even though the phone is new, and its never been mis-handled, that the screen is going to have problems soon? I have insurance on the phone and not sure if I could even get it replaced at this point, or if id have to wait until the screen actually has issues when its on.

I have it too. But it doesn't interfere with my use of the device, so I don't really care...
No there all like that, I have gone through 2 and they both had more then 4 dead pixels as well. Find a dark black photo or just turn your camera on and put you finger over the lens and you will find many.

The Newton Rings are probably very prevalent. I can’t say that I agree with your statement on the dead pixels though. Sounds like you got unlucky with both devices. I’ve tested mine with 4 images for black, red, green, and blue. Every pixel works fine for me.
Its caused by the layers between the touch screen digitizer and the actual LCD screen. The soft flexible LCD materials touch and form Newton's Ring patterns that appear as the pictures show.
On my old phone (A kaiser) the original screen did not exhibit this behavior, but when I replaced the screen, the new one did...
Luck of the draw,and no it is nothing bad...
I had this problem in european tp2 model... took it for repair and they changed the screen in warranty...

Screen problems

So I've been having some issues with my G3 and have been searching around with little luck. Does anyone else have these issues?
When I use my touchscreen, I can see distortion from the pressure placed onto the lcd screen. I'm not pressing hard on the screen at all.
Also, I've seen some people write about being able to see the digitizer in the background of their screens. Is this common on all G3's? It's very noticeable on mine and is really bothering me...
Also, this is my second G3. The first had a perfect screen (without noticeable digitizer), but had a VERY sensitive touchscreen (also viewable distortion from just normal swiping). My phone came from BestBuy and the only store with a white one in stock is 40 miles away from me. All the other BestBuy stores that are close to me all have black in stock. I know it sounds dumb, but are the problems I mentioned isolated to the white models only? So far both the white G3s I've had are having these problems...
Don't have either of those issues, but mine is a Best Buy purchased black version (AT&T)
Don't see how the color of the phone would have anything to do with this, doubt there is a difference in production. Good luck.

I owned a g3 for a month and my lcd distorted with even a light touch as well. I also messed with one at best buy and it had the same problem!! Shame LG, this phone just about pulled me away from my s5!

[Q] Display problem - local greenish pixels

Hi,
please have a look at the attached image, cause its hard to explain.
It was kind of strange... it started with some cloudy pixels in the middle of the screen, they went down to where they are now and got more intense.
Its now there since about 4 weeks without change.
Anyone experienced it? I guess I need to replace the screen, or is there any other chance? In case I have to replace it, what would I need to get? The touch screen digitzer or the full lcd display?
Thanks
Susi

Although i'm not an expert on this, But i should suggest you to replace Digitizer only because it seems like Display is okay just chemical imbalance between digitizer and display panel.
If you've proper tool to disable the device and with some flat hard plastic or something try to take this to the edge where it easily go out. To me Display seems okie. Because such things happen when we put phone in tight jeans and due to over compression such happens but it has nothing to with display panel, its just chemical in between display and digitizer.
I had an iPod 4th Gen,. Same kinda Dark black spot i've noticed after single drop on top right corner and later it disappear automatically. So just saying try that first rather buying whole new panel or digitizer. Flat blunt plastic to take that bubble to the side

lg g3 screen q's... lines on screen and seperate issue "bubble" between lcd and glass

lg g3 screen q's... lines on screen and seperate issue "bubble" between lcd and glass
Please see picture... 2 different phones I bought used, as-is
The phone that has vertical lines in the screen is funny. I know the most likely response will be: replace the lcd/digitizer assembly and it will be fixed, but I just want to make sure I cover all the bases before going there. I pulled it apart and reseated the connectors, which didn't change anything...
**the interesting thing is that when it first boots up (first second or 2), the lg / life is good logo displays normally with no vertical lines...then the lines show up as in the picture. The digitizer (touch) works normally on this phone
anything else I can check with the lcd or ribbon cables?
copy and paste picture I can't post it due to being a new user, if anyone would be kind enough to repost it in a reply that would be great!

On the other phone (which touch and lcd work fine on) it looks to me like perhaps the digitizer was replaced and is too close to the lcd in the center (touching) or maybe water damage or something like that but not sure...
any advice on how to carefully try to repair this?
Both phones were purchased used as=-is with no history so no warranty or anything like that obviously.
Any input very greatly appreciated

Faint horizontal lines or mesh pattern on screen

Hello everyone
I bought an LG G4 last week and it had a clearly visible mesh pattern on the screen. It was most visible on white bright backgrounds. It was uniform over the whole screen. The funny part is you could also see it when the screen was off and there was a bright light shining on it.
I had it traded in at the shop and they agreed that it was a defect so they traded it in for another G4. This one has it too, but it's much less visible.
I have seen that the display models do not have this mesh thing at all even on the brightest setting. Some do some don't.
Does anyone else here see it? I have a serial number that starts with 511 if that matters.
I also have this problem. I have to see some display units because it may be the way that pixels are arranged. It those dispaly units are ok I am going to get a replacement.
