Many times. I believe that the image has burned into my screen or something but I have no clue how to fix it.I can't really see it, but I'll pull out the classic tech support line... Have you tried shutting it off, then turning it back on?
I can't see it. And if it's a burn into the screen then it would make sense why I can't, because the screencap would only capture the regular image.Many times. I believe that the image has burned into my screen or something but I have no clue how to fix it.
Oh, whoops. Any idea how to fix it or is my screen just screwed?I can't see it. And if it's a burn into the screen then it would make sense why I can't, because the screencap would only capture the regular image.
Supposedly there are actually burn-in cure apps. They apply various colors to the screen over a certain amount of time and it is said to reduce or outright fix the problem.Oh, whoops. Any idea how to fix it or is my screen just screwed?
Yeah I've tried them but they don't appear to workSupposedly there are actually burn-in cure apps. They apply various colors to the screen over a certain amount of time and it is said to reduce or outright fix the problem.
New screen or new phone, then =/ ?Yeah I've tried them but they don't appear to work
Neither the screen or phone are new, it's a hand me down from my stepfather that he got a couple years ago. I only just got it todayNew screen or new phone, then =/ ?
I mean, if it bothers you that much, can you get a new(er) one?Neither the screen or phone are new, it's a hand me down from my stepfather that he got a couple years ago. I only just got it today
Yeah but it would cost moneyI mean, if it bothers you that much, can you get a new(er) one?
This is something normal from Samsung phones, my S4 and my mother's Note 4 have it tooYeah but it would cost money
Yup. Specifically, it's a known issue with OLED screens (and by extension, Samsung's AMOLED screens)This is something normal from Samsung phones, my S4 and my mother's Note 4 have it too

No burn-in on mine yet, and it's a refurbished model I've has since...October, I think? I actually just ordered a 8400mAh battery for it, so hopefully I'll be able to use it constantly like I have been for work and stuff and not have to charge it for a couple daysYup.

Even though OLED screens are really nice they do have their downsides.
Haven't noticed any burn-in on my 3 year old Note 3 though. It's never been left on a static screen for an extended period of time.
