xperia mini graphics

hi guys,

so i ran into this problem about a year back and didnt know what to do about it. Every time i play a game like hill climb racing and other gaames i see these dots on the screen like when there is a smoke image coming out from the car there are always these dots and i dont know what is the cause for this. Just in case you were wondering this happens for most games especially with white images.

please reply asap

thanks

it could be that your phone doesn't support such heavy games or it could be a bug on such games.

hey first of all thanks for replying and uuum no.. i dont think its a bug and i play most of the popular games like subway surf temple run and modern combat and its all compatible with my phone. this problem was not there when i had just bought the phone. i would really love to know the problem because on other xperia minis this doesnt happen and its driving me crazy!!

Issue is the same even with low end games like a solitarie, angry birds...?

Did you already tried a factory reset? if yes probably is a HW issue.

The sample uploaded is a screenshot made from phone or a photo of the display?

Take a screenshot, copy on a PC and check it. If issue doesn't appear is a LCD issue. If issue is the same is a motherboard isse.

If you did a factory reset most likely is a HW issue

As last chance you can try to repair your firmware with PC companion


As suggested try to take a screenshot (hold power button and select take screenshot) and not a photo with an external camera:

Same issue on screenshot --> motherboard issue

No issue on screenshot --> LCD issue

If your product is under warranty go to a Sony service center

If not, probably a repair will be more expansive than a new (good) smartphone.
