    Ok. So I'm getting an effect that seems to "dim" part of the screen when I do certain things on my phone. Especially when my wife calls. Her name appears and it's almost like a fade effect at the end of the name.

    It also happens every once in a while while surfing cb app. I'll try to get a screen shot once it appears.

    Anyone else have anything like this happen? It's just annoying more than enything

    This usually means there is more text beyond what can be displayed in the "text" box, but I have never had this happen on a phone call.

    If I am in the browser, and click on a url from within a page that is longer than what can be displayed it will fade out the last few letters. If you click on it then if will display all content without any fade.

    Not sure if this is the exact problem you are facing, but what I refer to is a built in feature.

    Not exactly.

    Here's a scree shot

    See how the name is fading out toward the end. And I know there's room for more than 4 letters there

    I get this on my z10, various apps. Seems to be better with smaller font sizes.

    I think I figured it out. It's a graphic issue. My wife's name listed in my contacts is Jess <3, it's the heart graphic that is not showing when she calls.

    As for what it is in other apps, no clue.

    You ought to download BlackBerry virtual expert free from bbw and do all the hardware tests. If you pass all tests, it's not hardware related.

    Might want to edit the post you made above OP and scratch out your wife's phone number (Microsoft Paints works nicely). Who knows what people on the internet will do with it.
