N9 - Black spots on display

Hi,
Just bough myself N9 and i just love it. One thing i noticed thouhg, that bothers me a bit, are the black areas or spots visible on dark grey backgrounds. If you start the camera on a dark room, you will notice the black spots. Is this a common issue on N9? Should i ask for a replacemet device?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Experiencing with the same issue. I have black lines on the dark grey display when phone is switching on, camera on, multitasking view (no or one/two applications on), dashboard view when empty.
I have contacted Nokia Hungary to figure the issue out. It seems to be unbelievable why such a small display like 3.9 cannot be homogeneous!
Image just found on internet but the problem fairly similar (hard to be taken by camera).
Keep you posted

20" ACD No Longer Displays Black Spots

Hi all!
We have a 20" ACD connected to a Mac G5/Dual 2.0 that for the longest time has displayed a series of black transparent spots in and around the monitors edges. We sent it in to Apple for repairs 2 or 3 times for this because it kept creeping up. Our designers were complaining hard. Finally the warranty expired and we were left with this problem, until now. I swapped the G5 out for a new Mac Pro and now the spots are gone! POOF!
Any one know how that possible?!?
Thanks!
M

most likely a video card issue then.
you will just have to wait and see if the spots show up again.
were they black spots like dead pixels? or did it kind of look like dirt in the screen, like kind of muddy dark spots?

Black Spots on Lumia 1020, this one is like a Mark...

I know there are lot of posts on the same issue, the reasons still i am posting this here is for some clarifications.
Is this a Issue with the Screen Display?
is this common for all AMOLED screens of 1020?
only few complain on this? Rest of the users are getting out of box no issues of any sort with display.
I have bought this online, and i have 30 days return policy.
can some please Suggest me? does replacement guarantee that i dont get a similar device, because everyone are saying its AMOLED thing, Please advice.
Please Note, this is visible only during Complete darkness in the room, during nights, GLANCE screen makes it visible, CORTANA screen Makes it Visible and some Third party App screens with Greyish or blackish backgrounds makes it Visible.
This is annoying and takes of the experience of having this awesome device.
Is this COMMON or RARE Situation what i have, sorry i did not use proper punctuation and grammar as i am sad and confused.

Hi Prashanth, I got replacement yesterday and this one is better than the previous one. i hardly see any spots with naked eye during regular use under low light conditions, if i focus during the night on black screen i see few tiny specs. but they dont bother me anymore while watching videos or in pitch black env.
i am not gonna care much now, and make peace with this replacement, learnt that its very hard to get a AMOLED screen with zero black spots.
Hope it helps.

Macbook pro 17 dispaly black spots

have a glossy screen 17 inch mb pro. In the middle of the screen some light grey black spots have appeared. they seem to be under the screen but over the underlying image etc. has anyone else had this problem??

Hi,
I had the same thing happen to my MBP. They changed my display, but unfortunately I got one of these horrible, grainy displays that everybody is talking about. I am trying to figure out which model was originally in my laptop, since the quality was much better (except for the gray spots that appeared). Do you know what model you have in your MBP?
Cheers,
Olivier

Black spot on screen. I stepped on the edge of it. It looks ink puddle

I stepped on the edge of it.
Yes, when it looks like blue and purple ink spot/spill that means you destroyed the LCD display,
it cannot be repaired, the monitor assy. must be replaced.
Contact Apple for appt. to replace your monitor.

Black spot on centre of the screen

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.

Black spot on the camera

Two random black spots appeared on my camera display, the phone didn't get wet or anything, seems like dirt from the inside... should I take it to apple's customers service? anybody with the same problem?
thank you

I have the same issue - perhaps not exact but extremely similar. In photo mode, there is a small purplish speck, which I initially thought as dust or something, and of course it ends of in photos taken. However, this speck is not present in video mode, meaning there is no dust, but some sort of artifact on the photo processor or something. Either way, itsa product defect - I plan on seeing if Apple will support this and replace thephone.....

24" LED with a tiny black spot. Will Apple fix it?

Hello.
I got a tiny black spot on my LED display. It's slightly larger than a pixel, which is really annoying. It might be some kind of dust behind the glass. The monitor is about 1.5 year old. Of course this happens when the warranty is out. Will Apple repair this for free or do you think they will charge for it?
Thanks.

I've never heard of Applecare + - "only in the US with AppleCare+ are 2 incidents of accidental damage covered (for a fee)."
What do you know about it? I've bought Applecare for every machine for years and years.

In my Macbook Pro, on a few occassions, the apple menu bar blacks out. its displayed as a negative image. The desktop wallpaper get greyed out and i get a blank screen as wallpaper. No idea why this happens. I reset the system and issue gets resolved.

HT1338 Black/Noise-swirl display issue on Mac Mini late 2012

I have been getting Black/Noise-swirl display cut-outs lasting up to 3 seconds, occuring about twice a day.
Hardware: i7 Quad-core Mac Mini (L2012), 4GbRam, 1tb HardDrive - currently using the Apple HDMI to DVI apdapter into a LG Flatron IPS225 LED Disaply.
The problem doesn't appear to be related to any particular app that was running.
The LG display is LED IPS and is at full 1920 x 1080 resolution. Overscan is off.
Trying to determine if it is related the screen or if this is to do with the Intel Hd Graphics chip within the Mini, as both are recently purchased, so it is quite a concerning issue!
Has anyone else been getting similar problems?
Any help appreciated! thanks

There are quite a few threads regarding this issue.

IPod 4th gen screen lifting and black spot, what do I do?

Ok so like 2 months ago my iPod 4th gen screen started lifting. I was like woah I have to get that fixed but the weird part was that I had never dropped it. Also after a while it started getting a black spot right next to where it was lifting. I ignored it at first because it was small but then it started getting bigger. My case has kept it together but to clean it I have to take it off and when I snapped it back on the corner where it was lifting cracked. I don't know if this was something like they didn't put on the screen right but I don't wanna have to pay so much to fix something that they did if it was their fault. Help please what do I do
Would the warranty cover this?

If the iPod was not abused it is covered by the warranty.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Black spots with RemoteApps using the Microsoft Remote Desktop on a mac

Hi, I'm dealing with a very strange problem with black spots while using a remoteapp. See the picture for the black spots. It's only happening when I use the MS Remote Desktop App on a mac (version 8.0.12, latest version of the appstore).
The RDS enviroment that we're using is Server 2012 R2 based with all the RD roles installed on several servers. Has someone any idea where to look? I've tried several things, LAN experience on the RD Web access disabled, new user without roaming profile,
nothing works. Sorry for the big picture...

Michiel

Black spots when taking a picture

When I take photos or videos, two black spots appear at the screen, this just happens when taking a photo or video so I guess that it might be something with the camera. I would like to know why is this happening and if there is any solution. This is really annoying so please help me,
Pablo

Are the spots in the same places every time? Do you have an example picture?

Black spots on printouts.

We have a Cannon MFC multi color laser printer, we changed the black print cartridge and when we print black/White , the printouts have black spots and other letters in the background. Can anyone please let us know if they had the same issye and what they did to fix it.
Thanks

Thank you nvenktesh,
Your paper, toner cartridge or the need to clean an internal unit can factor into the issue. Please first ensure that supported paper is being used: Paper drawer/16 to 32 lb (60 to 120 g/m2); Stack Bypass Tray/ 16 to 47 lb (60 to 176 g/m2). Note: Highly textured, very smooth or shiny paper do not print well.
If print or image quality is affected, and when replacing your Canon toner cartridge, cleaning the Fixing Assembly is very useful. Visit the link and select the article "Cleaning the Machine" for details on cleaning the assembly.
