White squares covering text on Samsung Galaxy S5 Active
Long time listener, first time caller. I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active on AT&T and this is one of the most annoying problems I've ever had with a phone. On the lock screen, the numbers are covered with white squares. Even the date and time are covered with white squares. Restarting the phone makes it go away for a day, then it comes back. I don't want to have to restart my phone everyday though!
Here's what I have tried so far to no avail.
Restarted phone
Uninstalled all apps
Cleared phone cache (not just app cache)
Factory Reset (didn't even sign in with Google account)
I changed everything back after I found out it had no effect. Not only does it happen on lock screen, but it happens on other places on the phone too! I've uploaded some pictures so you can see what's going on. (Yes, the lock screen is a picture of me and my girlfriend)
I even got my phone replaced under warranty twice! Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
