Screen light bleed

[Guest lukeyboymac]

Hi guys, just wondered if anyone has encountered this - I've had this problem on my omnia for a while. The photo above shows it as best as I can get it. Basically there is light coming from the bottom half of the screen and leaking outwards. I have taken the pic on a blank white test screen. I'm sure I can live with it but concerned that it might get worse. Anyone have any ideas? It's been dropped a couple of times but I'm sure it came on after I used internet sharing for about 3 hours whilst using it as a modem for a laptop and it got very hot. Any thoughts appreciated.

Cheers

Think its a documented hardware fault on Omnias.

Mine has a small white bleed in the lower left of the screen and I know of a couple of people on here with the same

Cheers guys, at least it's common I suppose :(

Wonder what will happen if I go to my local T-Mobile shop and have a word with them?

[Guest leethesparky]

mines got that in the same place too!!

Get an i910 :( Mine doesn't have anything like that. Perfectly uniform, homogenous display.

Just lucky? Or did they maybe fix this with the 910?

Ive got a light bleed in the exact same spot too.

The only problem with the omnia (i think) is the really bad touch sensitivity..

I cant seem to calibrate the screen.. the top right corner is not well calibrated, and the rest of the phone works awesomely..

i m getting to but it seems to be little yellowish

[Guest WideseaofEyes]

I've got a VZW i910 and i have the same spot, mines a little smaller but noticeable and irritating. Do you think this could be the start to other screen problems? or has anyone noticed theirs getting bigger?

FIX MY SCREEN!

Feeew, i thought i had pressed the screen too hard, when i saw that mark on my screen.

Nice to know it wasn't me & you guys have it too, but its a shame its there :(

Question is why ?

Got 2 Omnias here. 1 has it on the exact same spot. Although mine doesn't seem as bright. And turning the brightness up to about 70-75% helps a lot. Unless it's a complete white screen I dont' notice it.

I've also got light bleed (not as strong like in the first picture), but there is also blue spot on the right side.

Got screen protect foil on the screen and i tought thaht was a problem and than i've changed it, but the spot remains.

I also have the identical problem. I wasn't sure if it was from having the phone in my pocket or something else. The overtemp theory sounds likely. I noticed it about the time i started tethering too. I wonder if we just melted the light diffuser a little. I wonder what verizon's stance would be. Samsung should use opal glass or something instead.
