Xperia Z3 display yellow tint at bottom

Hallo to Z3 community! I noticed a yellow tint at the bottom of my screen (little difficult to notice, but it exists). The problem appears when you put the brightness at full with white background (into the display test at service menu). Is it common issue? Do you have it? Although it' s hard to notice it, i don' t want this problem and i must send it for service if i 'm the only one "lucky" with this issue and it is not normal for this screen.. Thank you in advance and sorry for the bad english!

Hello,
I too have the same problem with my Xperia Z3, yellow glow under the soft keys (home / back / task), the halo is very noticeable with white image full screen, when the soft key disappears. with the video we see very little, with black soft key not known anything. I have lollipop 5.0.2. what do you recommend?

  • Yellow screen towards bottom of iPad (3rd gen)

    My new 3rd generation iPad has yellow tint towards bottom (near home button) of the screen.  With color background it is difficult to see but, with white backgroud like mail app yellowing is quite noticeable.  I read some articles about when the glue drys yellowing will go away.  I got mine along the first shipment.  So it has been three weeks.  Is this covered by Apple warranty?  It really bothers me alot when the rest of the iPad is perfect.

    I think so.
    As far as i know you can just go into an AppleStore and get a new one. That's what I would do. Actually they even HAVE to take it back...

  • Yellow tinted display

    Is anyone else still experiencing a yellow tinted display screen after "restoring" to 5A347?
    I'm wondering if this problem is isolated to my phone, and it could be exchanged for a new one.

    I just exchanged my 3g Black 16 gig iPhone due to a yellowish screen. My new replacement came with the (5A437) version. It is still a bit yellow but now the contrast is off making the text blurry and gray. I have another 3g white 16 gig with the (5A435) version which has no problems. The color is very rich and has deep blacks. I hope the is a way to correct this in the future. Upgrading the version does nothing. This is my 4th replacement phone and I am sick of making trips out to the Apple Store every week.

  • My refurbished iPhone 5 display has a yellow tint?

    I got a replacement iPhone from AppleCare today, and I've got everything figured out with my new iPhone 5. When I was texting my friend, in messages I noticed the white background in the messages apphas a yellow tint to it. To make sure I wasn't seeing things or anything I got my iPhone 5 that I'm sending back to Apple and I compared both displays and the refurbished iPhone (I assume it's refurbished, there is little noticeable marks here and there) has a yellow tinted screen, and it's very noticeable, regardless on screen brightness.
    Is this normal in refurbished iPhones, or any refurbished apple devices? Can I call Apple back and request a new replacement iPhone 5? The yellow tint is pretty annoying, and I have an iPad as well, so I can really see the tinted yellow display.

    Is it new? I heard it was some minor problem with the adhesive glue on the iphone, and that it should go away in a couple of days/weeks?
    If you're super concerned about it, you should go to the apple store and have them check it out.

  • IPhone 3Gs has a color temperature display is warmer, or yellow-tinted

    All greetings!
    My new iPhone 3Gs has a color temperature display is much warmer, or yellow-tinted compared to the my iPhone 3G.
    It is a defect of my iPhone 3Gs?
    Here you can see it: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2415/2660565874_ef8a841a20.jpg

    I recently bought a 3Gs and compared to my old 3G there's a hug difference! my 3Gs looks really yellow! I went to Apple store at the florida mall to verify if this was normal, brought my old 3G with me so they could notice the difference,so I made the appointment and when the so called "apple genius" saw my phone he noticed the difference and took my phone to change it to the back of the store, he came back in 3 minutes claiming that he changed my phone,when I looked at it,same yellow display I said to the guy that the display looks the same but he never gave me any other option, on my way out from the store i checked the info on the phone but it was the same IMEI as the one in the box, how could this be? if they supposedly change the phone, I asked to speak to a manager and explained to her my situation, the "genius" that "helped me" told the manager that what he did was only changing the display and since I didn't like it,he went back and put back again the display that came with the phone... at this point I got really upset and I asked the manager to speak to the "genius" and asked why he lied about the situation, the manager said that she would bring the guy so we could settle this situation,they left me waiting on the store 45 minutes and none of them showed up... Great Apple store service... Yeah right!! F#$%^ them!

  • Two 24 inch cinema displays - one has a yellow tint

    I have 2 cinema displays that are less than one year old. Today, I noticed that one of them has a distinct yellow tint to the display colors compared to the other. I've never noticed this before and I am wondering if the display needs to be re-calibrated, or if there is a more insidious problem.

    I would recalibrate the colour first. Go to System Preferences>Displays>Color. Click on calibrate. I would put both monitor's calibrate active so that you can compare. If the monitor still show a difference even if the software says that it's the same, then you should go get it service.

  • Reddish tint in xperia z2 display

    I have a reddish tint in my xperia z2 display. I didnt notice this until I compared it with a z2 my friend has. In his phone the whites are perfectly white while I have a red tint which is viisible when I put the two phones side by side. I was able to adjust this by messing with the white balance settings. But now I can't get it off my head. Why does my display have a red tint with default settings and my friend who has the exact same phone has perfect whites also in default settings. Is my device faulty? should I return it? 

    True, if I adjust the blue and green slides a bit I can get mine to look "normal". however when using the default settings, when you put the phones side by side the red tint is clearly visible and I woudn't call it a "slight" calibration difference. I went to a another mobile shop and compared it with one of the Z2 phones they had in stock and as I expected the red tint is still visible in mine. Should I just adjust the RGB slides and call it a day or should I claim warranty or something? 

  • Yellow tinted screen display on my newly bought iPhone 5. Any solutions?

  • Yellow tint! the 3rd Screen of my iMac 27, it's getting worse and worse...

    Hi everyone not sure if there is anything more i could do with this, I have a 2010-13 week iMac, it came with a 'bearable' yellow tint problem from the beginning, after a hard drive failure i had to send my iMac back to Apple care, i was hoping the screen problem had been solved so I asked them to replace my screen as well, it came back with a worse panel showed much larger area of yellow tint...
    Then I decided to wait for a few months until a week ago before my holiday i called for another exchange, was hoping for a perfect screen after my holiday, now holiday is over and iMac is back, just right after I pressed the power button, the start up screen with apple logo clearly tells me that i have got a even more disgusting panel - the worst of all i have to say, a new uneven shadow line on the bottom plus the usual yellower tint spreads over the middle of the screen, oh yes, they decided to make it even worse, a big dead spot as well in the corner ....
    after a few hours, when i was editing a photo in Aperture, I have discovered something even more disturbing, from right edge of the screen inwards there is around 8cm wide vertical band shows obvious brighter tone than the rest of screen...
    I do a lot of black & white photography plus a lot 3D graphic work, for a while I had tried to live with the yellow issue until it got really frustrating - now i have to once again arrange an exchange as this one is just unbearable!
    Is this really Apple? Hard drive failed after a year and this is the 3rd screen of the iMac, and it just gets worse...
    I wonder if there's anyone who had the luck to get the yellow screen replaced by a decent one?

    Are you talking about a mid-2011 iMac or a 2010 iMac?
    As it seems, the issue of color inconsistency of the iMac display is far from solved. Yellow tint, uneven brightness, light-leaks are very easily found even of newer models. I have a two-week-old mid-2011 27-inch iMac that I tried to replace for a new one because of yellow tint issue. It turned out that the replacement iMac had a worse screen... So I kept the first one. Not sure if the right thing to do is just get the screen replaced. It seems users have done it with no success...
    So, I guess these problems are structural on the iMac line. They seem very much to be omnipresent. And I don't see Apple offering a genuine/trustworthy solution through its in-warranty support.

  • 2010 21.5 iMac anyone get one not yellow tinted

    I made the mistake of looking at the forum before picking up the base 21.5 iMac and all i see is the yellow tint issue
    Then i googled and it looks like a real issue impacting most 21.5 iMacs. . . .seriously ?
    I realize this is the er of issues but it seems larger than that
    So any good 2010's out therE ?
    Tia

    I had the 21.5" iMac for a couple of weeks. Decided I really wanted the 27" so back the 21.5" went.
    Mine had a very yellowish tint in the bottom-right corner (4th quadrant) that radiates to the center of the display. It was so bad and extremely annoying when working with photos. My observation is from a person who's an avid DSLR photographer. It's less annoying when looking at the browser (surfing the Web). Depending on your use, you may or may not overlook this issue if you have it on yours. YMMV.
    Do realize that my experience is in no way, shape, or form representative of all 21.5" iMacs. Just my personal experience with the one I had. BTW, it was ordered from the Apple online store.

  • Yellow tint (lower part of screen)

    Good day!
    I am a very satisfied Z2 user for quite a while now.
    My problem started recently when I noticed the lower part of my screen developing a yellowish color.
    Should I send it to Sony service center or should I wait for a firmware update?
    And would the service center accept it even if I bought it from a gray market?
    Btw, I'm from Manila, Philippines.
    TIA!

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    First of all check the settings for white balance. You'll find it under settings > display > white balance. 
    If you have tried to change it without any difference when it comes to the yellow tint I suggest that you have your phone examined by a service center. Please contact your local Xperia support team for more information:

  • --- •• WORKING WHITE BALANCE FOR YELLOW TINT Z1 ••

    Hello Guys,
    I'm here to bring some HOPE for those users who won, I mean who got Z1 from the lottery yellow tint issue. I am an XDA user since then and I found a thread saying that the Japanese version of Xperia Z1 SO-01F got white balance settings yesterday and the OP ported it to our Z1 C69xx !
    I installed it and CONFIRMED ITS WORKING. Results are farm different from Screen Adjuster app from playstore and such where blue is really noticeably. Navigation bar also changes using this. Although I'm wondering why it has different sliders compared to those on Xperia Z (Hue and Saturation), it will give you a peace of mind that the nightmare has ended.
    Here are some screenies:
    You need to be ROOTED to have this, no other way. It's flashable through CWM but if you are just ROOTED and doesn't have CWM installed, you can just push the files to the folders and change permissions. (tell me if you need help on this one)
    Here's the original thread with the download link from XDA :
    http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572080
    If you're an XDA member, don't forget to hit THANKS to him. Don't forget to give Kudos   and / or mark the correct answer 
    It would be much better still if Sony will provide an official solution for this headache issue.
    Reply with results you got or problems you encountered installing, Ill help. That's all. Enjoy.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes, we will add a setting for white balance in an upcoming version of the phones software planned for the beginning of next year (see my response here: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1/Xperia-Z1-C6903-Display-Issue-Yellow-Hue-Tint/td-p/391521/pa...).
    I don't have any Japanese unit so i can't confirm if it has been added there already and what it looks like though.

  • Yellow Tint

    My Macbook's screen seems to have a yellowish tint to it - yes, the entire screen. When displaying any white image or website, like Google or even this very support forum, the white is noticeably yellow. My girlfriend also has a Macbook and I've compared them. Her whites are genuinely white when side by side with mine, so I know I'm not just paranoid. I thought it could be an issue with my Display Profile but we are both using the exact same profile, "Color LCD", as I'd like to stick with what it came with and what I've been using for over a year. The other profiles seem too blue, anyway. I digress, though.
    My Macbook is only about a year and a half old and this really bothers me. Any help would be appreciated.
    Message was edited by: M. Moth

    OK, I'll reply.
    My MacBook has the LG-Philips LP133WX1-TLA1 LCD panel, and to me it is a bit on the red/yellow tint side for my liking, even after using the System Preferences / Displays / Calibrate settings. Qualitatively just by eye, the LP133WX1-TLA1 display looks like it is optimized for video. The white on my MacBook looks about the same shade as white on my Sony TV when the TV is set to, "NTSC Standard," color temperature.
    Apple has used several different LCD panels in MacBooks, so your results may vary. It seems like many other computer monitors are set to very hot color temperatures and are very biased to emphasize blue. The MacBook may be getting color temperature right, but looks reddish compared to everything else.
    I have other grumbles about MacBook displays that annoy me more: narrow viewing angle, they're really only 18 bits color depth (they dither to get 24 bit; dither method varies by manufacturer), some have cathode bleed - the bottom of part of the display looks washed out. The display in my MacBook is pretty good on cathode bleed, but I have seen other MacBooks where cathode bleed is strong.
    The new notebooks that have LED back lit displays look really great - MacBook Air and various Windows-compatible notebooks. Technology is always getting better; I've enjoyed my MacBook anyway, despite its few quirks and limitations.

  • IMac 27 3,1 Ghz (2011)  |  yellow tint on lower part of the screen

    Hello,
    Just bought an iMac 27" 3,1 Ghz with AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1GB VRAM.
    Unfortunately the lower third/quarter of the screen has a yellow tint. Very annoying if you want to do graphics and webdesign :-(((
    Is this still the same LED problem like in 2009/10 ? Anyone else with the same issue and a new 2011 model ?
    Very annoying and frustrating with an almost perfect machine. Temperature is very low, almost no noises – it would be a dream working place... Sorry, to say something negative about it, but the screen looks like it was used for ages and reminds me to the good old tube-days.
    Any experiences and opinions are very much appreciated.

    Same issue here too. I actually don't think most people would notice, but some of us have low tolerances for colour inconsistency. Anyhow, I've scheduled a return with Apple online. I think it may just be a characteristic of the display rather than something "wrong" with it. (?) So I'm not taking a chance on another computer, I don't think it would turn out any better. But yes, the lower half of my screen — and especially the center of the bottom — is clearly yellower than the top half. The problem is minimized if I turn the brightness way up, but then my eyes bleed, ha. When I keep the brightness set 6 ticks above "zero", I'm regularly distracted by the colour change. I can't notice it as much on a busy screen (versus a grey background) but that's not exactly a solution.

  • What's Wrong? My iPad Lost it's Yellow Tint!

    My new iPad never really had a yellow tint. The display, though, was obviously warmer in tone than my iPad 2, and the warmth was across the entire display, not just part of it.
    Space around text was, in particular, whiter on the iPad 2, and the text seemed to be darker - more contrasty. I had to call my wife over to take a look and she confirmed what I was seeing, when the two iPads were side-by-side.
    As others have noted, if the two iPads were not compared side-by-side, the new one looked fine. Put them together, and the difference was very apparent.
    However, having read from several posters that it's an issue with glue, I decided not to panic. Last night, I spent a few hours with the new iPad on the Web, reading people's comments, and then browsing the topic of color - how we see, Edwin Land's ideas about color perception being based on context, etc. It made for interesting, if not hard-going reading.
    Just before I went to bed, I did a last comparison check. I discoverd, to my amazement, that my new iPad's display had lost most of its warm tint over the past few hours. As far as I can tell, it's now totally gone. When I compare it to my iPad 2, the new iPad still looks warmer, but only in comparison.
    Now the iPad 2 has a bluish cast to my eyes, especially when I'm looking at a page with black text and white space - the white is blue. With photos, the difference is down to a slight saturation gain with the new iPad. And the retina display increases sharpness just enough to make some photographs, along with their increased saturation, appear to be 3D.
    I have a feeling this problem of tint/color will resolve itself for most people, one way or the other. For those who can relax for a few days, they might find, as I did, that the yellow will disappear. Or they might trade in their iPads, but there's no guarantee, if they get an iPad fresh off the boat, that it won't have the same problem, at least for a few days.

    That's good to hear that the "Yellow tint" has sorted it self out.
    Maybe the "Heat" issues that that people have with the batteries will sort it self out after a few discharge - recharge cycles.
