I saw burn in on a display model at Best Buy. It was the big Motorola M logo that displays at the boot animation. If you looked at a white web page or any solid, but light colored image, you could see the ghostly circle the size of a quarter complete with the swishy M in the middle of the screen. Got them to open a second demo model and boot it up so I could see a clean screen and bring it to their attention. Weird thing to have burned in, too.

Op did you leave both phones display on for 2weeks straight at 100% brightness? Lol

I have had mine for 2 months, do at least 4 hours sot daily, most of which is on reddit and xda, so nav and status are almost always static... I have zero sign of burn in.

I had it pretty good on my s3, but I blame ingress for that... Being outside playing so much and had it at 100% brightness because that screen was so dark... Even then it took at least 2 months before I saw any burn in and I was playing A LOT!

Can't imagine how you would get burn in on two devices, each in two weeks... Seems like that's a feat that you have to try and do, lol.

What do you thing the man is making this up? Come on Now!
[Moto X General] theraffman:
I'd be hard pressed to believe this as well... I've had numerous amoled devices and abused the crap out of them and even then, it took months to get any sort it noticeable burn in... If it were one device then I wouldn't second guess it, chalk it up to manufacture defect... But two in a row? I'm curious as to what the op uses his phones for and if he ever turns off the screens... Even store display models take a while to get burn in and they are on 3-4 times as much as a typical power user.

[Moto X General] Wade-0:
I'll have to send you a pic of my GNex then, so you can see the perfect "ghost" of a Pandora logo in the middle of the screen from running the display full time in my car dock.

I also remember similar complaints when the GNex first came out, of people claiming they were getting burn-in on the notification bar area, and I thought they were ridiculous at the time. Now, not so much.
[Moto X General] aooga:
It happened to my gnex, so I'm not surprised that it happened on this phone too.

I'm not saying you're faking it, but 2 weeks is a little too soon for it to be happening. The gnex only had the issue after a year or so. Are you keeping the display on all the time when charging or something?
[Moto X General] gtg465x:
They will eventually burn in if you set the screen to never time out and leave it displaying the same thing for hours or days on end. Most store models have some level of burn it. In normal use cases it should never be an issue though.
[Moto X General] h1ghland3r:
It happened with my GNex too.
[Moto X General] malibu_23:

[Moto X General] crazysoccerman:
Just passing by, but 2 weeks is entirely possible.

If you keep using the phone with the notification bar displayed and then two weeks later open a full screen browser, you will most likely notice burn in if you look close enough.

It's extremely easy to do.
[Moto X General] detonation:
I bought an S3 from ebay with real bad screen burn in (that the seller didn't mention). She actually didn't believe me and accused me of scamming her until I replied back with a contact name and number that was burned into the top of the screen from the messaging app (the keyboard was also burned in, I guess she constantly texted this person).

I think burn in is more likely to happen when brightness is higher. I had a GNex and GS3 that never got any sort of burn in but I also rarely had the brightness above 50%.
[Moto X General] BaconDrips:
you know, now that I look, I have it too. It's faint, and I thought it was from the Nova Launcher beta, but ****, this is screen burn in. Damn.

---------- Post added at 05:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ----------

I don't even use my phone that much. Generally around 1.5 or 2 hours screen time per day. Brightness is about half. Kinda crazy.
[Moto X General] Solutions Etcetera:
Recommend using an app such as:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.feetstech.screenburn&hl=en

to minimize this. Most plasma TV's have something like this built in as they are also prone to burn-in. Use it for 10 minutes every once in a while (even if you don't see burn in) and it should prevent it.
[Moto X General] Travisdroidx2:
I got screen burn in on my S4 after 2 months. But I also blame ingress for that. I have a X coming and hope to minimize that by not playing ingress so much or play on another device. One thing that I do for the status bar to help out is with nova launcher I have it set to swipe the notification bar on top away. I try to leave it off the screen as much as possible. But yes amoled screens suck for burn in.
[Moto X General] Jason.DROID:
I usually turn my phone to the 270 degree position to have the navigation bars switch sides every now and then. That helps a bit.

And with AMOLEDs, it's more important to turn off the screen when not in use rather than let it time out. I have mine set to 10 minutes, but I usually manually turn off the screen because I know AMOLEDs are prone to burn-in over time.
[Moto X General] JaeKay:
Yea, i love AMOLED but im OCD about stuff like this

My s4 is starting to show it after about 5 months of usage,

was wondering if the Moto X had any problems.

Its unavoidable, really.

And DO NOT use any apps to fix burn ins. These only work with LCDs as it can relax the structure of the LCDs with a white screen. The only way to really fix it is to burn in the rest of the screen, which is impossible.
[Moto X General] T-R:
I have a really bad screen burn on my GS4 I'm gonna sell any day now. If you leave your OLED phone with screen on with a static image, you are doomed. Two weeks is surprising but if you leave it on every day for the entire day, I can see this happening.

In my case it's the tool bar from a chat app I use... you can even read the tool labels LOL.

Anyway, I've tried running those color switching apps that supposedly fix it and it doesn't help one bit. Now I'm trying my own method to see if it helps... I made a negative of the screenshot of this chat room (cleaned up dynamic "stuff") and will keep it on the screen for few days. Maybe it'll help to even it out, we'll see.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:01 PM ----------

Have you tried making a negative of the image that burned the screen and keeping this negative displayed for few days? It may even it out.... I'm doing this test right now (started today on my GS4 I'm trying to sell)
[Moto X General] gtg465x:
Affects any AMOLED screen. Just a negative side effect of the technology. AMOLED helps to enable one of the greatest features of the X though, so you can't blame Motorola for using it. If you don't stay in the same app all the time or keep your screen on for super long periods of time displaying the same thing, you will probably never notice much if any burn in. The new transparent bars and full screen mode in KitKat should help to reduce noticeable burn in on the most common places, the status and nav bars.
[Moto X General] Jason.DROID:
Or just watch Netflix (or whatever service you're subscribed to) more often. The moving images help. The idea is to minimize the static image time on the screen.

Once more apps support Immersive/Full-Screen Mode, that will help a lot too.
[Moto X General] ncvikingx97:
Just noticed I have it too:/. Oh well
[Moto X General] zsturgeon1488:
I own the 2nd Gen Moto X. I had noticeable burn -in after about three weeks. It is visible at the top and bottom where the task bar and navigation buttons are. Its most visible against a grey background. Erica Griffin has a video on YouTube about this same issue on Nexus 6 and Moto X. So to everyone who doesn't believe it, its entirely true.
[Moto X General] robin_moto_x:
I don't understand what is happening to mine. Is more like a burn issue but it comes and goes. The whole left half of me screen has a blue discoloration. But the issue doesn't persist. It comes and goes. Sometimes it just flickers
[Moto X General] Warren_Orange:
I've got bad screen burn on my Moto X 2013. I bought it 2nd hand and noticed something strange when I put it into landscape mode. Anyway I have now flashed 5.1 (it was running 4.4.4.) and I can see a light bar at the bottom of the screen with the Kitkat soft buttons! OMG it looks terrible. Do you think Moto would replace it??

Cheers.
[Moto X General] athulele:
You can try and ask for a replacement if you still have warranty left.

If not, here's an app to help reverse the burn in of kitkat buttons - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bengigi.screen.diagnostic
[Moto X General] Warren_Orange:
I'm trying that thanks.

I'm running cm12.1. Does anyone know how I can have a black nav bar and transparent notification bar? I've tried Nova launched but I can only have black for both bars not just one.
[Moto X General] CallOfHonor100:
I am having a similar problem of some sort. Whenever I boot up my phone, during the bootup, the navigation buttons are clearly visible even though the phone had not booted up completely. (But when the phone is completely booted up, I dont notice it, e.g. in full-screen mode) But thats not it. Whenever there is white background, there are some words visible in the background like 'hands-free' and 'Designed by Motorola'. I dont understand what that is or how its there. Is this burn-in issue and can it be fixed by the app in Play Store?
[Moto X General] rey2gato:
It's normal. My new droid turbo has the notification bar burned in. Also in a Razr HD the screen was burn.

Don't know why I missed this but looking at this pinned mod-note http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2381647 about subforums I need to ask again, since I didn't get any reply the last time (persistance :P)

Why all the different mail S4-forums? Verizon S4, A&T, T-Mobile S4. And then we have this "International". Are not all S4?

Do they not have so many things in common that can can't call the all S4? It's not once that you find a link here pointing to some other "main S4" where a script or a program is located.

If we should consolidate we should consolidate forums. Samsung Galaxy S4. That is the phone.

If there is specials made by Verizon? Subforum.

International verion - > I9505 (subforum)

Now I9506 --> Subforum

Then we have ONE Gereral, ONE Q&A and the rest are for the quirks that goes under the brand. That way we wouldn't have to see the same question in 5 forums. Nor hunt for someone that makes a cool thing that he/she will post in THEIR forum.

So. Keep it under one roof. Why don't we do that?

What is so special about the American brandings? Can't someone please explain that? A simlock can't warrant a whole top-level forum can it?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skipjacks:
Well when you run xda you can organize it the way you want. Until that day, it will be run the way the people who do run it want to. Complaining about how its run is basically just rude.

If you think the different variants are all the same, go ahead and flash a ROM made for a different model without adding a model specific kernel or making other modifications. Let us know how that works for you. (Spoiler alert, it won't boot) They are different enough that it matters. The moderators understand this and organized the forums accordingly.

With them all grouped together every other thread would be someone with a soft bricked device begging for help.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Sheesh. That you don't understand why we have specific forums for specific devices speaks volumes :rolleyes:

'Why don't we do that ?' Because it's a dumb idea.

The way things are works as well as it possibly can, and as Skipjacks mentioned, removes the possibility of soft bricked (or worse) devices which could easily happen if every device was thrown into one forum & people assume which device a particular poster has.

For example, poster has some obscure I95x variant, person who answers thread assumes they have an I9505, tells them to go get I9505 firmware from Samfirmware & flash it = borked phone.

hello,

I'm new to my new O2 xda mini.

How can I can turn both my device and phone off by pressing the power button?

If I press the power button once my device is off but the phone is still on. (that's expected)

If I press the power button for 2 seconds, it only dim my backlight but both device and phone is still on. (that's expected for PocketPC PDA).

However, for a mobile phone, I need to turn my phone off by pressing the power button.

I have a problem pertaining to the storage space of my phone. I have an HTC One 32gb and I currently have about 5 gb of free space left. When I go into root explorer and check the space of my external sd card. It's only used up about about 15 gb. So my question is where is the rest of the space. I know the system takes up about 4-5 gb or something like that, but it shouldn't take up 17 gb! Also, there's a folder named "data" in my root storage, not the sd card folder, that takes up around 18 gb but I'm not sure what the files are inside. How do I free up more space on my phone? Any help or explanation would be appreciated.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] r3pwn:
Hello! Since we got root on the device, the next priority is bypassing the security system in the bootloader.

After reading up on the specs of the KFHDX, I saw that it has the same SoC as the LG G2. I looked up bootloader unlock methods for the LG G2 and apparently it is possible to bypass the signature check by using the "Loki Bootloader Signature Verification Bypass" method. I will try my hardest to make this possible.

In order to make this possible, I request the HDX7's and HDX8.9's "aboot" and "recovery" partitions.

To grab them from your ROOTED device, do the following on your computer:

$ adb shell
$ su
# dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=/data/local/tmp/aboot.img
# chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/aboot.img
# dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery of=/data/local/tmp/recovery.img
# chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/recovery.img
# exit
$ exit
$ adb pull /data/local/tmp/aboot.img
$ adb pull /data/local/tmp/recovery.img

Once you have those two files, email them to me at r3pwn (at) icloud (dot) com

Also, tell me what version of the HDX you have (7" or 8.9") and what firmware version you are running (You can see this in settings).

PLEASE NOTE THAT I DO NOT NEED THOSE FILES FOR THE REGULAR KINDLE FIRE HD 7" SECOND GENERATION.

hey

So, i need help!

I have the canadian variant SGH-M919V model.

Currently I am on original stock 4.2.2 (not rooted) rom: M919VVLUAMG1_M919VYVLAMG1_M919VVLUAMG1_HOME.tar.md5

I had flashed the 4.3 modem of my model: M919VVLUEMK5 (modem.bin and NONHLSO.bin) three times via odin 3.07. So the modem did stick.

then through Philz Touch 6 CWM 6.0.4.5 AND Philz Touch 5 AND TWRP 2.6.3.1 i did complete wipe three times in both recoveries and flashed GE v14 and Omega v16 roms.

Then I booted into the system. my phone kept freezing up a lot , especially with phone dailer app, youtube app, and browser. It would FREEZE, and become unresponsive. I had to pull battery out, hard reset. Even then it kept freezing up more.

I did many wipes, and reflashed my model's (SGH-M919V) 4.3 TW modem three times again with odin (modem.bin and NONHLSO.bin) and then full wipe and installed the aforementioned roms again, same issue!

I've used GE v8.0 (4.2.2) perfectly well. No issues, it was the best rom, battery efficient!

Please note, i have the OLD bootloader from my 4.2.2 original stock rom!

What is wrong here? Can anybody help please?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skipjacks:
First off you are in the wrong forum. This one is for the 9505 and 9500 versions of the S4 not the 919. There is a 919 forum specifically for the 919 and all its minor variants.

In that forum you will find a modified stock 4.3 ROM that let's you retain your current bootloader, doesn't install Knox, and gives you a full updated phone without all the negatives.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LimitsX:
First off, you failed to understand. Lol, but I can see why you seem to have responded the way you did.

Secondly, my phone isn't "919", clearly you don't read well. My phone model doesn't have a forum. And NO, M919 is NOT same as M919V. My phone matches more with I337M and 9505.

M919 modified stock 4.3 ROMS aren't for my phone and services. Doesn't work.

This is a very good advice for you, please improve your reading comprehension skill.
