Stuck pixel. There is no red in your screenshot. I do see some white pixels where they don't belong, however.
Does this happen on KTU84P?

Hmm on my screen the blobs are red and not white. Is there s way fix this? I am on 4.4.4 BTW Cleanrom.

Oh, does it use the navbar from the 5.0 preview?
You might try something like this? https://play.google.com/store/search?q=stuck pixel&hl=en I have no idea if it will help, though.

No I changed the navbar myself. And do you think I should RMA this?

Anyone know if this is something Google will fix using the warranty?

I have the exact same problem except I have it in the top right corner and I notice it on darker backgrounds , as far as I know their is no way to fix it because I think it is a hardware issue

Yea are you going to try to replace it.

Yes they will, but the process goes like this. Contact to get RMA, they of course try troubleshooting first ( which is basically factory reset), when that doesn't work, they inform you that you need to order a replacement which they will send you a special link to order. You order it with a credit card, they place a hold for the amount of the new unit, they send it to you and you return the defective one and they release the hold. You receive a brand new unit, not a refurbished one. As long as you have relocked your bootloader and flashed the stock ROM (assuming you did at all) all will be good. I have not had any touch problems with my replacement or pink spots appearing.

Pumpkin and maxidot

Hello all. I bought this radio for my Skoda Fabia. I have a few question. My maxidot screen does not show file names, only track 1, track2, etc...if I use something else, like poweramp, it just shows OTHER MEDIA. Any way of fixing this? Pumpkin support doesn't have a clue.
Also, can I install Malaysk ROM for this radio? Since it has many hardware buttons, will they still work?
Thank you

You need to provide a picture of your system screen to be able say yes or no.
Normally yes, but you never know, since Pumpkin is only a reseller.

Dasaita Max 10; Downgrading 1280x720 screen to 1024x600

Some time ago I ordered a px6 Max10 with 720p screen. The lcd screen somehow broke in the mail (I think they knowingly sent it to me broken... but that's just my opinion), and I sent them pictures of this. Dasaita sent me a new screen... or at least they were SUPPOSED to. A month and a half later (today) the WRONG part arrived in my mailbox. They sent me the outer glass instead of a new 720p screen. So here I am more than 2 months after I ordered this thing, it is STILL not in my vehicle. I am sooo friggin angry!
Anyway, I sent them an email but we're probably talking yet another 6 to 8 weeks... and that's if they get it right this time, which I doubt. I am fast coming to the conclusion these people are slightly less than honest.... but that's another thread.
I was thinking....
I do have a Dasaita px5 with a 1024x600 screen. Would it be possible just to take the screen off the px5 and stick it on the px6? This might be far easier than expecting much more from Dasaita at this point. After seeing what I saw today in the mail that they sent me, I don't think I am ever going to see a working 720p screen out of them. I have a feeling they are just going to jerk me around until I get tired of trying.

if they are thesame dimension...the only thing really is just flash the right file for the specific resolution

Yeah that's what I thought. I'm pretty sure the two screens are the same physical dimensions, and I believe the connections are all the same so its just a matter of flashing with the correct resolution.

Then just flash the 1024x600 update file (including the MCU if necessary )

May be useful to have a 2nd screen handy that you can connect over HDMI to see what you are doing when you try to flash different screen resolutions. For 1024x600 I think you need to flash a dmcu.ext file with "screen:2" in it.

Hi woggles,
I am new here, so please excuse me , if my question is stupid.
First, seems I have the same issue. I have PX6 , and the seller recently send me an update containing dmcu and update. files.
I did the upgrade and this almost brick my head unit. So, my display stop working, it have vertical lines , and flicking. My hardware buttons has lost its orders , for example home button become "power" button, and so on. Touch positions on the screen also are displaced. The screen constantly scrolling itself. Error message appear shows Version Unmatch -01.
I plug external HDMI monitor , and there all looks fine. So the issue is in the LCD display .
Then I update dmcu with newest version , and this error message disappear , but I still have issue with the LCD. Tried several update versions, but so far without success. Attaching pictures.
I think that the issue is in the screen resolution do not match , or LCD hardware issue, that is why I would ask you - how to flash dmcu with screen option ? My screen resolution should be 1280*720
Many thanks !
ps. unfortunately I cant attach an image, as new member

To update the screen configuration you need to flash the dmcu.img along with a dmcu.ext file. You need to put both files on a FAT32 USB flash disk and you can upgrade MCU through the system settings menu or in recovery. The dmcu.ext file can contain the screen configuration and is simply a plain text file containing "screen:x".
For 1280x720 try the following screen values (upgrading MCU each time).
"screen:12" this resulted in blank screen for me
"screen:13" this works for me in all roms but I get one half line that flickers on the top left.
"screen:16" I never tried this, support mentioned it to me
"screen:18" only works for HA firmware 20190915 or newer but has the best results.
I would try 13 first, but I'm not sure if you have same display as me.
Good luck!

Great post.

Some time ago I received a replacement screen panel and apparently it has a resolution of 1280x720, so I installed it ,but the image doesn't fit the screen. I have tried that dmcu ext file ,but the only value that works is screen:12,,,,,any ideas?

Just using reverse thinking on this.....
Wouldn't a bigger image indicate a SMALLER screen? Are you sure the screen resolution is 1280x720 and not 1024x600?
Screen:2 I think is the 1024x600 if you want to try that. Just make sure you can get out of it without the screen just in case it goes blank.

When they sent me the new screen they said it was 1280x720, and when I installed it I checked and it showed 1280x720 in settings. There is a setting in factory settings by the name of "Customer Version" and it's referred to the screen version or resolution , Version 1 and Version 2,,,,,,,,I saw somewhere to never change it to version 2 or it will be a blank screen . I did not try to flash the mcu with dmcu ext screen:1, I will try that later.:good:

Here is my experience with this similar issue. After figuring out the the dmcu.ext is basically a text file and the only thing in it is screen:x x being a number. The number representing a resolution in relation to what MCU and OS. The default of 1280x720 is 12 on all of the dmcu.ext I could download. I read in most people changing it to 18 depending on which MCU you have installed is what i read. I also was not doing a factory reset erase all before I did an install. So I did the factory reset and the dmcu.ext with screen 12. nothing happened. I did it again with 18 nothing. The 3rd factory reset with screen:0 and on all of these I was using MTCE_HA_V3.62 for dmcu.img. When this one rebooted it had a black screen. I plugged a monitor to the hdmi output and I could see through the monitor just fime but I had to touch my head unit screen where I think it should be according to the monitor so I factory reset again with screen:13 in the dmcu.ext and when the head unit rebooted after installing it was the correct resolution..

I had the same issue and it took forever finding it. Just rename either dmcu.ext. I tried editing the other, the depository I used no longer existed and any Google search came here.
The new place were I got the dmcu.ext file.

Technically it is,
I wont be spoon feeding everything to you on exactly what to do use google
But look in developer options, display settings else
use adb to pull your build.prop look for the tablet description/ feature set, edit on pc and set it to the one used for phones
then sideload it back to phone
reboot and enjoy
(no one knows hoe the fold will handle it YOU MIGHT BRICK YOUR DEVICE OR GET BOOTLOOP)

Yeah, that's already unchecked.

Have you tried going to the display settings, then screen layout, then selecting standard view. Split view makes your phone act as a tablet.

yes, me too. I have tried several times to email WhatsApp support, but so far there has been no response. several times there have been updates in the playstore but the result is still the same..

Same here, with Fold4! Thanks for bringing up this issue. But no solutions found yet?
