Will these lines show up if you are using the phone? So do you see them when the screen is on? And a screenprotector will 'solve' the problem? (The lines will disappear)
[G4 General] runningwarrior08:
If you didn't, look at my post right above yours. With buffing the phone well and installing a screen protector, I used tempered glass, the lines do not come back even with use.

If I remove the screen protector and use the phone the lines show up almost immediately.
[G4 General] Jaws77:
I'm sorry, didn't saw your post. But do you know if you see the lines when your screen is on an you're not using a screen protector?
[G4 General] Stile35:
No, in that case lines are not visible if screen is ON without screen protector.

screen coat a big issue

I noticed th same thing with my h815...a few days after i purchased my brand new lg g4...i was like wandering what i could have done coz th screen is th most important part of t the phone so i am very careful..its a bit disturbing..any solutions to how we can clean
[G4 General] runningwarrior08:
No there are no solutions on how to fix it there are only remedies. The only one is to buff the screen really well first with an alcohol solution then with just a dry microfiber towel until you can no longer see the lines then install a screen protector over the top.

The lines are exacerbated by the oils from your skin so if the oils are unable to get to them they do not appear.

LG will do nothing for you if you own an international version not from your country.
[G4 General] Juzman:
I have 2 x H815K from Telstra, received on 23rd. Before they were even switched on, I applied a NuGlas Tempered Glass protector (whilst phone was still in box). So I guess I wont ever notice these "lines" due to the tempered glass on top (and never having any fingerprints) e.t.c. on there.
[G4 General] Raygenbogen:
I have a h-815 bought in Germany and I have these lines. They don't bother me much, that's why I don't brought it back. But should it start to bother me, do you guys know a good way to fix this without bringing it back? Changing the screen would be one option.
[G4 General] jobella:
Install a tempered glass screen protector.
[G4 General] viper619:
Returned mine to service and they changed the whole phone, now its better.?
[G4 General] Freezone47:
Hello, i have 815 and i returned once for the screen coating issue...now i don't know what to do , to remove the screen protector --> to see if the problem appears again,or to keep the screen protector and the marks will not appear.tough decision.I have the device for 2 days and no problems for now.i wouldn't like in a month to have this problem again.any advices ?
[G4 General] Zenouzenou:
International H815 here, same lines, i've contacted LG in France and they told me that it's the first time they heard about this issue, so i gave them the link of this thread !

My phone is on his way to LG for a screen replacement, I will report to you the end of story.
[G4 General] Orka82:
Found this line yesterday. Bought the phone tuesday.

I was thinking that I had caused the problem but the line is too perfect for anything to have scratched it. So. I Googled and ended up here. ;)

Edit: The store here in Sweden swaps it for me as DOA.
[G4 General] IKING.E:
iam going to buy new lg g4

should i gave up on the phone i want know does this lines on the screen appears after a while of buying or what ? / what should i do while buying the phone to make sure it's now a faulty unit ?? and what due to this problem ? :(
[G4 General] Zenouzenou:
My lg g4 came back to me yesterday with a brand new screen. Also, miss taps are gone with the new screen.
[G4 General] Goobs10:
Im from the UK and have had the same issues. I bought an LGG4 from an ebay seller who got the phone brand new from carphone warehouse. Within a few hours, those lines appeared, one near the top and one near the bottom of equal distance. I returned the phone to the seller who took it back to carphone warehouse for a replacement which he sent to me. The replacement seemed fine for a few days but then those dreaded lines appeared again in the same place as the other one so I have had to return this too and have requested a refund. Im gutted because I love the phone but the screens are obviously defective.

Those who have not had issues, have you been using a screen protector? If you are, then you are not touching the actual screen when using the phone and I wonder if it is the touching of the actual screen that is causing these marks to develop. How many have not had issues whilst not using a screen protector?

Im guessing that if I get another one and use it with a screen protector so Im not touching the actual screen then I may not see these lines. However, I dont like using screen protectors as I feel it lessons my enjoyment of the phone and they are supposed to be scratch resistent anyway so you shouldnt have to.
[G4 General] PetoG:
I am waiting for replacamenet. I had the same issue on returned unit.
[G4 General] Stile35:
I had the same coating issues on my LG G4 and screen was replaced under warranty (Croatia, Europe). I have new screen for 1 day and I am praying now not to see those awful lines again on my screen. I am not using cover or tempered glass.

BTW. those lines started to be visible on my brand new G4 after cca. 3 weeks of usage. Will see now with new screen...

Do you have an email from LG confirming this? I´m having trouble getting LG Portugal do accept this is a manufacturing issue.

Gracias!
[G4 General] doomalikaw99:
Oh my god! I thought it was only me!!! I have two horizontal lines top right and bottom,anyways I have this phone for 2 months now, do you think I can replace the screen without paying?
[G4 General] Stile35:
If you have warranty, you can replace screen without paying or even you can get new phone.

For me, only screen was replaced for free here in Croatia.

It would be helpful if to know if this was a bad manufacturing run of screens produced at a particular time - for those of you who still have the issue, could you please install this LG phone info app which will tell us the production date and post it to compare with others with the same issue.

Yes I do. Purchased from mobileciti in Australia. Aus stock. LG-H815T made in Korea. Bar code says "(1.1)" hardware but made in June, is that possible?
[G4 General] P650SE:
Hi everyone!

I bought my H815 G4 in the UK last Saturday at a super cheap price from Vodafone, but have started to notice some unfortunate problems with the screen and wondered whether it was normal across all of the recently produced G4's. The problem i'm having seems to be a little different to the others posted in this thread. It would be awesome if a few people could do a quick test for me, as i'm debating whether to have my phone replaced for another one in store at the weekend. :)

1. Okay, so download

this

image and open it in your favourite gallery app, so that the screen is one solid colour throughout.

2. Adjust the brightness to a decent level, ideally at least 50%.

3. Now hold the phone straight towards you at arms length, does the colour remain consistent over the whole screen? Mine seems to have a darkish area about 30% downwards from the top. :(

4. Bring the phone closer and slowly tilt it at all angles, does anything look unusual while doing this? On mine, this reveals a large light circle on the upper portion of the screen, and further areas of brightness downwards in the lower section. For me, it seems like the glass isn't seated properly against the display or something. When i apply a small amount of pressure to the brighter areas with my finger and slowly move it around, the circle shape also moves. :confused:

I'm starting to suspect i've been sold a rubbish phone, because this doesn't seem too normal. Unfortunately the issues i'm talking about are difficult to capture on camera, so i can't really show what it looks like. If anyone could check this out for me, it would be most appreciated.
[G4 General] SergioA:
Hi P650SE!

I did the test, the colour remains quite consistent over the whole screen, both at arms length and tilting it at all angles; also no changes when applying a small amount of pressure...

I'd say your screen has same problem, try for sure to have your phone replaced!

Ciao from Italy

Sergio
[G4 General] P650SE:
Awesome, thank you for doing the test and reporting back. You have helped me out significantly. :) Someone on HotUKDeals also did the test and reported the same outcome, so i have a feeling there's definitely an issue with my screen, which is rather unfortunate. I'll be looking for a replacement at the weekend, hopefully it can be swapped for another device. If anyone else would like to do this test then feel free, i'd be interested to know whether there's other people who experience similar problems.
[G4 General] fiszer:
Did the test, no issue on mine - I have also bought from Vodafone for £225+£10 topup
[G4 General] P650SE:
Cheers, so it seems likely there's a problem with mine then. That sucks! :( Ah well, hopefully i'll be able to find a replacement at the weekend.
[G4 General] FadeFx:
Yesterday i got a call from the shop that my phone is back from repair, so i just went there today to pick it up and guess what...

I took the phone out of the package and the defect was still present, the czech service center staff obviously was not able to read the german discription of the problem or quit reading after the S/N 505..., so on they changed the mainboard (my unlocked bootloader is locked again!!!) and sent it back. Lets see how they work out on the next try... two more weeks on my galaxy s3...

storage cant be inc it's flashrom and cant use the normal ram

but one can just install programs on RAMDISK it's faster then normal storage anyway it being ram (well ½ of it) and storage is flash
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] c_shekhar:
Use HIMA_DOC_TOOL v1.0 to increase the storage from 15 MB to 30 MB. Search the forum.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] wollawolla:
Thanks c_shekhar for your response. I searched around the forum, seems this extrom unlock has been discussed for years.

for my understand, need to run the ExtROM Tools to unhide/unlock extrom, then run the Hima_DOC_Tool_1.0 to merge storage and extrom. Now here is the question, I unhide the extrom successfully, can see it for 15.97MB, however the unlock does not work, it has the "blue square" icon and fails "Either it is not signed with a trustred certificate, or one of its components cannot be found".

Not sure this is a corrupted package or something missing from my ROM, the .rar opens fine, but the winrar reports .cab file is corrupted when trying to open it.

My ROM is 3.50c.40CS version...appreciate for your time to help!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] wollawolla:
Excellent, found the solution from buzz forum...i installed the unlocker to SD card that is why it faied...after re-installing to DEVICE, it works!!! got 30.5MB storage, very happy. Thanks guys.:cool:
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aa212121:
So I made a Nandriod backup, installed a new rom. I didn't like it so I restored my Nandroid backup. But instead of rebooting, I installed a new update of the rom which I restored through the Nandroid backup. Due to this I could boot into my rom but I didn't have a cell signal. I also couldn't boot into my recovery(tried flashing boot.img of latest recovery through Flashify but that didn't work either). It directly booted into my rom. Phone didn't have any problem booting into the fastboot mode. Anyways, I then connected the phone to my computer, booted it into recovery with terminal, restored my Nandroid+EFS backup and now have a fully functioning phone.

I want to understand what I did wrong here so that this doesn't happen again. How did my IMEI get corrupted? Was it because I restored my nandroid backup and installed a new version of the same rom without rebooting? Or was it something else?

That is the builder that builds new versions every time a change is pushed to master.

Just click the new one on the top of the list (#1039 at the time of writing) and there will be an APK link to the latest built version at that point.

is this normal ? bit confused as the guys video are 60fps lol

[Shield Android TV General] sowa152:
I like it :)
[Shield Android TV General] baileyjr:
There are vast improvements with the latest versions. Only had a quick go last night with Wind Waker, its almost running at full speed now. Here's a nice little video on a channel I follow.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iQ6myHHMnU

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCJKOKAc0Rs

The fist half on the second link shows how to set it up.

Personally I set the internal resolution to 2x, enable fastmen, Enable Skip EFB access from CPU, and set EFB copy to RAM (cashed). Oh and force 16:9 aspect ratio. I leave everything else as default. That seems to work for most things and gives a good speedup. You'll get a much more details explanation of settings over on the dolphin on android forums obviously, but that should get you off to a decent start.
[Shield Android TV General] NZtechfreak:
There has been huge improvement recently. I played through Fire Emblem Path of Radiance in its entirety on the SATV (overclock 0.5) and currently playing through FE: Radiant Dawn (overclock 0.2). For Wii games Super Mario Bros Wii and Muramasa the Demon Blade running full speed for me (and Radiant Dawn with overclock, as above). Game cube games running well include Timesplitters 2, Luigi's Mansion (although there has been aa graphical regression recently and his head is missing) and on 1x IR Mario Kart Double Dash is virtually perfect too (frame rate consistently above 55), as mentioned above Zelda WW approaching full-speed too. Performance in most games is CPU bound, so increasing to 2x IR or so doesn't hit performance in most games, so I was interested to see that Mario Kart did improve with lowering IR (someone reported that in comments in Free Emulators YouTube channel and I checked and it's the same for me also).
[Shield Android TV General] baileyjr:
Arrr thats interesting, I wondered how people were running Double dash at full speed while I was stick at about 30fps. Over the weekend I played Wind Waker on the sheild, however there is a bug in the Tower of the Gods section where the lifts don't activate http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/1540/t1671502-tower-of-gods-glitch-dolphin I thought it was just me and it wasn't until I gave up and looked at a walk through that I realized it wasn't me :) I had to transfer back to the PC and play past that section before picking back up on the Sheild. There's something very satisfying about playing on the Sheild TV. I've had dolphin on my PC forever but hardly ever fire it up, probably because of the backlog of steam games lol. Whereas with the sheild in the bedroom its the first thing I head for. Probably because I believe the gamecude games are far better gameplay wise than native android games. I tell you what though I find those Zelda games pretty challenging puzzle wise, I can fly through most modern games but they really do have me scratching my head and I do occasionally have to reach for a walkthrough as much as I hate going so.
[Shield Android TV General] Status_Errorv1:
What are your overclock settings for Mario kart dd?
[Shield Android TV General] baileyjr:
Yes is there a list of Sheild TV specific overclock settings somewhere? I saw a thread on the dolphin forums but it said the settings may vary by device. I haven't played around with OC settings myslef yet. Off topic it would be nice to get a custom Kernel for the TV so we could bump up the CPU clock a little :)
[Shield Android TV General] Status_Errorv1:
what settings do you use on mario kart dd? cause I update dolphin daily
[Shield Android TV General] baileyjr:
I've yet to play around with any OC settings mate that was #NZtechfreak. I just enable fastmen, Enable Skip EFB access from CPU, and set EFB copy to RAM (cashed).

I'll have a play around with the OC settings later tonight, but I believe setting to 1*IR should give you almost full speed without OC settings.
[Shield Android TV General] Status_Errorv1:
cant wait till android M is release a month or 2 months from now on this device....also the shield IS perfectly capable of running dolphin at full speed..dolphin just has to be optimized and updated.
[Shield Android TV General] baileyjr:
The optimization sure has come a long way especially in the last couple of months. However I believe we will see full speed emulation of "most" gamecube games with the next iteration of the device since there's nothing quite like new hardware to speed up emulation :) I'd be very happy to be proven wrong on that prediction though.
[Shield Android TV General] NZtechfreak:
No overclock on Mario Kart, seemed to make it worse there. Only a few games seen to benefit from overclock.
[Shield Android TV General] baileyjr:
I got to a consistent 45-50 using build 7636. What is evident is there is a huge variation in speed between the different builds. Much more so than I expected. On a more recent build I was only getting 30 fps in Double Dash. I will have to try and find a way of quickly bench-marking each build. I don't know if the original Wind Waker benchmark is suitable for use on Android? Other than that if people come across a particularly fast build can you post the build number please? :good:
[Shield Android TV General] NZtechfreak:
7666 here, 55fps and up, very rarely drops to very slightly less (like 54 or 53 fps).
[Shield Android TV General] baileyjr:
Thanks for that mate, I'll give that build a try. If you come across anything even better (and you remember) can you post back here, and I'll do the same. :good:

I'm guessing you could also find performance variations game to game from build to build. So for example that build above "may" be slower on a different game even though its faster on double dash?
[Shield Android TV General] NZtechfreak:
Definitely, I try to test at least one new build a week, however I'm frequently too busy to do that and might go longer between test runs.
