Hey guys , i have been having this annoying problem where anything light/whitish on my screen stays and gives after images when there is something darker on the screen after that. For example my clock and notifications in the upper right of my screen are white (android 7). When i watch a youtube video, or just anything, and the video is a bit darker , you can see the clock and notifications in the spot they are normally. To better explain this , i recorded my screen and uploaded it as a private yt video : (See edit bottom of post) Explanation of the video : i open up the app drawer(white and some icons) and then i drag down my notifications from the top. Now my screen goes dark greyish , and you can still see the white app drawer on the sides. Notice how at the beginning of the video the app drawer hasn't even been on my screen for 3 minutes and it still hasn't faded , it does become more visible after i let the app drawer rest on my screen in the middle of the video.
Phone : Moto G4
Problem since 1-2 weeks ( i have this phone for about 11 months now)
Stock android 7 , no fiddling with root or developer settings , everything stock. I have not yet tried a factory reset as i would like to do that as a last resort. (I'm simply a bit lazy and don't want to redownload everything, i do factory resets every 3-4 months anyways)
Edit: ok , i feel kinda stupid but it's possible that you can't see it on the video , i tested if it was visible and it was , but i tested with my phone which has the problem , just think of it as like the light pixels are getting burned into the screen and stay visible for a period of time (more than 5 minutes)
