'Light bleed only on home screen'

[ImTurningViolet]

Did you ever get this resolved? I realize this thread is a few months old, but I just got my 2 xl and it has the EXACT see issue you mention. The home screen doesn't bother me too much because I usually use Nova Launcher anyway, but I like black wallpaper for my lockscreen and the ghosting effect on the top half of the screen annoys me. I ordered a second 2 xl and it had exact same issue as well. Both have build dates on December

Did yours go away? It just happened to my Pixel 2. It was fine one minute, then froze, reset, and now there's a light band.

Dang didn't know this was widespread.

Depends on what you call widespread

Anyone who has tried the Android P beta, has this issue been resolved? Curious also if the black crush on the regular Pixel 2 has been addressed.

I want to know this as well

That almost looks like the launcher is applying some sort of gradiant or color mapping to the status bar or parts of the status bar incorrectly.

Also, as said if another launcher fixes the issue then it is definitely a software issue and not hardware which is good.

The gradient is gone on the bottom in Android P

Thanks. What about the black crush / blotchiness when watching content? If these are both resolved I may just buy a Pixel 2 again.

Thank you. I posted my question in the Android P beta thread, figured it is better to post over there. Sorry for duplicate questions.

It's faintly white but it's there on Android P when switching apps.
