Screen Saver Issues - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

I searched high and low, I can't be the only one having this issue... Screen saver works at night for a couple hours and then screen goes completely black at some point OR the clock is distorted and unreadable. I have factory reset, installed and tested another screen saver and it did the same thing.
Thoughts?

noticed different brightness between 2 devices

just curious if these screens are actually calibrated my first i had a transparant line running down the centre of screen, my second appears fine however when i set it to the same brightness as my first nexus i was getting heavy banding on dialer / greys with task bar pulled down.
So i lowered brightness to 35% and all seems well , however 35% brightness on this is around the same as 65% on my first device. Not so much a issue but did think it was strange as this would affect auto brightness settings between devices.

Slight flickering light on home screen?

Hi guys I just got my H1X (int. version)a few days ago, and it's still all in stock.
To conserve battery I usually put the display on the lowest brightness, but I noticed that while I'm at my home screen I get a slight flickering of the light, and what's weird is it always flickers in intervals of 1 second, as the seconds on the clock (mine is the ring clock widget) moves.
Is this normal?
p/s: this only happens at lowest brightness. I tried adjusting it to 40~50% and I couldn't notice the flickering anymore.

[Q] HTC switches off and screen brightness not working

Hello,
Yesterday when I was done working and got my phone from my locker, I opened an app and immediately
the screen went black and appearantly the phone had switched itself off. I turned it back on wondering why
it did this, but as soon as it had started up and the home screen appeared, it turned itself right back off.
I tried turning it back on about 7 or 8 times until the battery ran out and I could not try anymore.
When I got home I put it on the charger and fortunately the phone stayed on, however the top of the screen
seemed to be 'trembling' a bit and some pixels were changing from light red to dark red to light red etc. (my home screen is red)
I decided to leave it charging overnight and when I woke up, the trembling had disappeared. I took it off the
charger and after scrolling through my Facebook news feed, found that battery percentage was decreasing quite
quickly considering it's on power saver mode. I thought it might be that the screen brightness is too high, so I went
to settings and tried to adjust the screen brightness, however it is not responding? My screen brightness stays
exactly the same no matter whether I increase or decrease it, and when I was doing that the phone switched itself
off again. I put it back on charge now and turned it back on, but I am quite annoyed about this issue because I
do not know what it is and my phone is only 5 months old. I hope any of you can shed some light on the situation.
Summary of the issues:
- Phone switching itself off
- Screen trembled yesterday
- Battery decreasing quickly
- Brightness setting not working
Info about the phone:
- HTC One X 5 months old
- Android 4.2.2
- No adjustments made to the phone with rooting or any of that
Thanks!
Must be a hardware failure if you havent changed anything software-wise
Is it overheating?
Is it under warranty?
And other sensors are working? But like TTG TriCkSh0tZz said , use your warranty if you can.

[Q] Clock displayed shifts slightly when display enters power saver mode

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4PbEIHxGbEFelM3VVB1RC0zU2M/edit?usp=docslist_api
Hi guys. I received my Asus ZenWatch today from Best Buy. I attached a link to the video I made above that shows exactly what is happening. Once the screen enters battery saver mode (when screen always on is selected) and the minute hand advances, the clock shifts slightly. Does this happen with all ZenWatches, or is my watch slightly defective?

This is normal. It is to prevent image burn due to it being an amoled screen.

Screen too dim, backlight(Maybe) not working.

Hi all. I have a rather weird issue. After droping(oops) my phone, I ordered a new lcd. I shelved the phone as it was unusable until the screen arrived. When the screen arrived, I saw that the battery was dead. I charged it and changed the lcd. That's for the backstory. Fast forward to now. When I open the phone, the screen lights up at full brightness as one would expect at the android one logo. It stays there at full brightness for about 8secs But as soon as it starts loading android the screen dims to absolute dark. In the beginning I thought the phone was closing, you can't see anything... Unless you close the lights.
But even in absolutely dark room, the screen is still very dim, barely discernible. The phone works absolutely fine otherwise, touch camera sound etc. I backtracked the process and put it's original screen on, but it does the same.
I tried disabling auto brightness it does nothing. In fact, changing brightness from the slider does absolutely nothing whatsoever.
Tried calibrating the sensors from the engineering menu(not sure it was called that, the one you enter when you put numbers on the call menu) they seem to be working, but the brightness doesn't change.
Tried removing the battery for a prolonged amount of time (around 6 hours iirc). Still same.
At this point i'm thinking:
1)Software problem. I will really need to hard reset the whole thing, which i'd rather not, and hope for the best.
2)Bad screen, which doesn't explain why the previous one has the same problem, or why the screen works during the logo.
I hope I was able to give enough info. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Hi, I'm having almost the same issue (display very dim, but for me it is always very dim) and this manifested not after any dropping or screen replacement, I guess I just wrongly inputed a button sequence that configured the mobile in this weird status. It is really annoying as it is almost impossible to unlock sims, basically the phone is unusable, very frustrating....
Hey there, did anyone found a solution for this issue?
Has anyone solved this problem?
Have you found what was causing this?
I’ve the same issue, replaced the lcd on a xiaomi mi a1 and the backlight is present at the logo startup but completely black after that.[br]
On a dark room I can barely see the screen and all it’s working, but adaptive light button is missing, seems like the bootloader is able to use the backlight but not android itself
I have the exact same problem, i really hope someone knows a solution to this. I tried pretty much anything within my capabilities
