Open inside phone. Dry with hairdryer and wipe screen cable's microchip with a dry towel.
I think this can solve your issue 90%

Banding screen Droid RAZR

Hi, all!
I have just bought my new moto, everything is cool but screen has parallel lines at low brightness and on grey and blue pictures. I heard about this issue on Super AMOLED but I think that on my screen this is too match. Please, check out photos.
The first photo is white pattern at low at brightness level about 10%. The second is grey pattern at about 80%. The last one is photo at about 60% of brightness.

Is it normal or I should to swap phone?
oh snap, that is real bad, compared to my phone thats really not normal.
Yeah not normal
you should get it replaced.
I went to service center in hope to replace for a new one but there don't want to replace, they show me another phone with similar defect and sad that this is pretty "obvious" for this model. I think they are hustler or I have a luck to talk with not competent people.
Thanks a lot for your respond, it give me confidence that truth is on my side and I will try to replace phone anyway.

[Q] Purple-ish Capacitive Buttons? Get it replaced?

Hey guys I received my HTC One earlier today and I noticed a couple of things, one, there are small gaps between the polycarbonate and the speaker grill and my capacitive buttons seem to have a purple-ish hue to them. it almost seems as if they are not completely lighting up. Has anyone else had this issue?
If not should I go ahead and get it replaced?
The only reason I ask is because when I went to the AT&T store, the display model had the same issue.
By the way, they look sort of like this, except more purple:

Mine have somewhat of a hue.
They look like this:

or you can get it replaced,

Someone from Alcatel or JRD?

Hi guys, I'm searching for help from someone that's an employee (if there's one on this forum), to explain how can they tell me that the screen gets yellow-ish on it's borders and flickering black horizontal bars over the upper border and the bottom one. In some minutes, it gets ok but the color doesn't get back as it should be. My acknowledge tells me that the display chip is crashing and/or something is going wrong on the screen itself.
What should I do?
Why do they told me it's because rooting? It's really stupid and ridiculous.

Those bars where flickering/blinking for some minutes.
You can notice it better right here.
Here you can see two totally black borders at the screen right and left upper margins.
It's running on TWRP because, scared, I shutted it down when I saw the screen running like this and then restarted on recovery to check if it's a software error.
Help me a hear me please.
I got my English skills unused for some time, sorry for the grammar, hehe.

Does everyone have the "rainbow effect"? It's deal breaker?

Just brought it, i really like it in all aspects except the annoying rainbow effect, i can even see it without tilt the tablet, especially in landscape, just wondering EVERYONE have this problem? after some time of use you get used to? any way of fix it?
I was thinking of change it but it doesn't make sense if all units are faulty
Rainbow effect:

I am unable to access your screen picture but my tablet is perfectly normal and has none of the aberrations you describe. I was in a shop yesterday and handled the two display models and they were fine too. So I would suspect a fault with yours.
Here are the pics http://imgur.com/a/mpuTI#0
So your tablet doesn't have any of this when you tilt it?
I noticed a rainbow effect when I first got mine, but now I don't see it at all unless I really look for it.

No, none of that. Using the same Google page,I have tilted it in every direction and it is a clean high quality IPS screen with no artifacts.

Need help! Camera causing certain artifacts when taking a shot.

When i try to take a photo of my window against the light i can see the window reflected on the lens and the image taken contains it. I've seen other threads mention the same issue when taking the photo of some light source, but this happens with the whole window

This effect is really visible when there is sufficient light outside. I'd like to know whether this is a hardware defect as i have only seen posts having a small circle or a dot.
Just came across this by accident in Tapatalk, but this is certainly a reflection caused by the camera's flat protective screen, which lacks an antireflective coating, to make things worse.

Oh i thought something happened to my camera lens. Then I guess there is no way to correct things. Thanks for your response
