It's not a "grainy pixels" issue, it's grainy display… hard to explain, better to use a simulated photo I've made. On the right the grainy display effect how it looks on a LG V30, compared to smooth transparent glass surface on the left (LG V10):

Just received my brand new V30+ with the grainyness clearly visible and also has the blue tint. Having used a nexus 6p before I immediately knew this isn't supposed to happen. A replacement unit is on the way. Hope that one is better than this. This is my first LG device and gotta say I'm already hating the pathetic quality control.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
You're going to see blue tint when looking at the phone off-angle, sideways (turned away from your eyes). I tend to look directly at the the phone when I read my emails or texts. ;)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] drone991:
Yeah well I don't mind the tint since most of my use is directly facing the screen and I'm fine with the backlight bleed too. But the grainy display is a huge disappointment since I can clearly notice it even with a low brightness. Just hoping the replacement is better!
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
You're especially going to notice any uneveness with low brightness. Google capped Pixel 2 XL brightness to what would be about 30% for LG V30 (both use same displays). LG V30 then can achieve much lower brightness than Pixel 2 XL brightness, but Google did that to "fix" the complaints about some LG OLED displays being blotchy at very low brightness level. Some are not, some are perfect.

Since I don't run my phone below 70% brightness, this "issue" isn't an issue. Running phone at low brightness negates one of the advantages OLED has over LCD, of vivid color and contrast.

Sure, return it, see if you get something not to your liking. Maybe you do indeed have a flawed display. But a whole lot of people complaining (in my opinion) don't have flawed displays but don't understand OLED typically doesn't perform as well at super low brightness level, compared to LCD. But OLED has other major advantages over LCD.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] drone991:
I actually saw the grain at more than 50% brightness. But wasn't sure at first if the display really is flawed. I had a Nexus 6P before this but that had an AMOLED panel. And since LG uses POLED I guess maybe POLED panels are meant to be so. If the replacement device is the exact same then I guess it isn't really an issue. In any case, better safe than sorry :laugh:
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] src151:
I tried 2 different V30 devices from completely different batches and both had the same grain. It is LG's POLED feature unfortunately. Worse thing is that this is not something new. The same issue is well documented since the first LG POLED smartphone LG G Flex released back in 2013, so I have a bad feeling that it will not disappear anytime soon.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] drone991:
Got my replacement today. The display on this unit is flawless. The grain is present but that's to stay in a P-OLED panel. However it's almost unnoticeable. It was more pronounced on the first unit. It's a bit weird considering both units had the same manufacturing of 12/2017 but one was horrible whereas the other is perfect.

NOTE: If you purchased a new device and find the grain is more pronounced and noticeable then get it replaced ASAP. Chances are you'll get a device that's better than the unit you got. Although a little grain is normal and expected. I got in touch with Amazon India right after setting up the phone and within 30mins my replacement request was accepted.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bkmagnetron:
How is it visible on VR Goggles?

For me grains are clearly visible from ANTVR and comparatively G6 is much better in VR. I don't know how this is certified as Google Daydream device.

I also bought V30 from Amazon India, first replaced for dead pixel(it also had grains but I didn't mentioned it), then replacement unit also has grains and also a thin vertical line on Red color(tried #ff0000 and also #ff00ff) display test is visible.

I have been trying to replace this one Amazon is asking for a photo but I can't capture that thin line in a camera.

For the first replacement they arranged a Technical Visit.

But now they are saying its not available for my location.

Any idea on how to convince Amazon for replacement?

Thank you in advance for the help guys
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhatshravan:
Kernel

Kernel is basically an interface which is between your operating system which in android is basically linux and the actual hardware like your proccessor ,cpu etc

You can change your kernel to get more cpu controlling mechanisms,change frequency etc by usually rooting and flashing the kernel. Many times some custom ROM's also install a different kernel

Baseband version is basically the version of software used in your wifi hardware,modem etc

Build number is basically a device specific tag or name
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] eric3ho:
I recently installed Nova on my mate 10. Every time I try to swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to the drawer (all apps), both drawer and Google Assistant will show. I tried so many way and did so many research and still could't figure out how to disable this Google Assistant shortcut feature. I drive everyday so I enjoy using Google Assistant to make phone calls when I am driving.

Does any one know a trick hoe to disable this Google Assistant swipe up shortcut in mate 10?

Thanks!

If you do this on Pie, however, you can no longer access Google Assistant in any other manner (as far as I can tell). I have a Mate 10 and am using the off-screen navigation gestures (i.e., relying on the home button). Any thoughts?

I want to get rid of it too, but I want to keep Hey Google. When I initially disabled assistant, Hey Google still worked. Then, while looking for a way to change the tts voice (only two options, red and orange, showed up in the Google app) I installed Google Assistant from the Play Store and deleted it afterwards, and "Hey Google" under Voice Match in the Google app settings has been greyed out ever since unless I enable Google as the assist app and not just as voice input, which again enables the annoying swipe up gesture.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] xxRockOnxx:
Usually when buying phones I find the variant that has a lot of support, but SM-G930F is quite rare in our country. SM-G930FD is the most common one and some other Korean variants.

Opinions? Experiences?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] guillefs:
SM-G930FD and SM-G935FD is good
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] xxRockOnxx:
Ok thanks! I guess one response from another xda user is suffice. Other opinions are still welcome.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] sjevtic:
They really are good

These are based on the Exynos microcontroller and have unlocked bootloaders that result in an active ROM development scene. And yes, they are good. I've had my SM-G930FD for about a year now, and the first thing I did upon purchasing it was install TWRP and then SuperMan ROM by [MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION], which is probably one of the most popular custom ROM images for this device. I was using v1.19.1 (Android M) at the time and just upgraded to v2.8.0 (Android N) a few days ago. The ROM is super-customizable, with root, Magisk, and Xposed all working out of the box; you can even pass SafetyNet as of the moment if Xposed is disabled. Note that the SM-G930F and the SM-G930FD are quite similar, with the latter being dual-SIM, and the former single-SIM; the same SuperMan ROM that I just referenced is intended to work on both.

Now for the downsides from my perspective: small screen size (I purchased it during the Note 7 debacle), non-removable battery (though it still going strong after a year). Also, 32 GB of internal storage is a bit tight if you like to install a lot of apps or keep a gigantic SMS/MMS database. The latter isn't a deal breaker though; even though getting adoptable storage going is a bit challenging and arguably even undesirable, there are other games you can play to shift a lot of the storage burden to a good (read: fast!) microSD card. Finally, beware that in the 'FD models, the dual-SIM capability can only properly be used if you don't want to also use the microSD slot simultaneously. Supposedly if you are willing modify your second SIM card, however, you can use it at the same time as the microSD slot. I haven't tried this mod though and cannot comment on its effectiveness.

The real deciding factor here is if the bands supported by the phone will work well with the carriers in your region; I'm in the USA, where these work well on the GSM-centric carriers AT&T and T-Mobile, but I can't comment on whether or not the bands supported will be effective in your region.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] xxRockOnxx:
Just for future readers: bought an SM-G935F. I know I said it's quite rare like 1/10 but hey... got lucky! Was actually confident on getting an FD one since I found out that ROMs are available on that version but this F-version guy pinged me up and sold me this for around $260 which is quite low compared to the common price of $300 here (talking about secondhand prices)
