[anon(10076979)]

Is it possible to have a burn in on the secondary screen?

LCDs do not have burn in issues.
Occasionally you might get a temporary ghosting issue but it goes away.

Is that for sure?

Are you having an issue?

Are you having an issue?

Yes, on the 2nd screen. When I did the screen test using *#546368#*990#
When in white screen, the left side of the 2nd screen has something like a shadow or a very very light black that can be noticed when you really look into it

That code does not work for me.... Probably because it's disabled by Verizon so I can't see if mine does the same thing.
If you only see it in test mode I would not worry too much, but I can understand your concerns.

I just dont see it on the 2nd screen while not on test mode 'cause it's just black. Think I can live with it. Just the OC side of me.

But thanks Mike. You've always been helpful.

Nope, LCDs can't burn in. Otherwise everyone would have a burned image on their computer monitor screen or their laptops.

LCDs aren't as susceptible to permanent ghosting or "burn-in" unlike plasma and OLED panels.

However, they are prone to a similar, albeit temporary condition called image retention.

It doesn't happen all the time but when displaying a static image for extended periods, the constant voltage may cause the liquid crystal to "stick", causing the effect. The solution is to either shut the display off or display a white image until the liquid crystals "unstick".

Image retention should not occur frequently, so if it does, the panel may be defective.

Just an update. Went to the service centre here I showed them what happened and they confirmed that it's a screen burn. They will replace the display for free since it's still under warranty..

There may be a defect in the screen but it's not burn in. The service is probably using that term loosely.
In any event the screen replacement should rectify it.
