Recently I have been noticing vertical lines/interference when viewing a mostly white screen while on full brightness. Is this a sign my epic needs a visit to the repair shop?

I have the same issue, it happens a lot when I'm using the browser.
Sounds like screen burn in, a fairly well known issue.
Is that covered by the warranty cause the screen gets super hot as well I can't imagine what its doing to my battery life

If it was screen burn in you would get those lines all the time.

That's odd I don't remember it ever happening before recently oh well its still bright as hell on low anyways but it will suck outside as that's the only time I up my brightness I wonder if its a power issue with the cpu as it only happens most during processing market or web pages

This is an engineering flaw. When the voltage from the battery drops, when it is not fully charged, and the screen brightness is at maximum, and the screen has a lot of white pixels drawing power, the display controller loses power, and has trouble with sync.
The battery will also drain slowly, when the brightness is set at max, even when plugged in and supposedly charging. This is even more critical on USB charging.
These problems are hidden most of the time, with the Display/Power saving mode, and dimmer screen settings.
It seems the full brightness is not properly designed and powered, and this is a shame, because it really makes the Epic 4G's display stand out.

If I NEVER use 4G, can I freeze all of the WiMax stuff without causing any problems? I am trying to find ways to stop so much usage by Android system. Usually showing about 80-90 percent.

That is accurate. Like Windows all apps running on your phone go through Android system. It is the OS. In Froyo it was incorrectly pushed to the display percentage. If you have light usage and after about 12 hours your percentage should be between 60 to 70 percent. Freezing WiMax won't do anything since they only run if you turn on 4G.

Thanks Kenny,
Most times I am in the 80's, so when I saw things like WiMax line test, and mode change and Net test, i was wondering if those were things running, even though I never even bother with 4G. but i guess it makes sense that if I am not turning 4G on, ther services most likely are not causing any issues...i guess i will keep digging!

With CPU Spy how much deep sleep does your phone get? Reboot, put it down for 30 minutes. Open it and check CPUSpy. You should have most of that as deep sleep. Of course this is off charger. Charging keeps phone awake at 100 Mhz.

911 is fixed, before a new build is posted Decad3nce needs to be home(school/work) as this is a serious matter, so it'd be best for him to handle it because his name is on it, as you can understand. mkasick found out what the issue was and fixed it, the Fascinate has it as well, the fix is for CDMA phones....the Vibrant might actually be f*cked... UberPinguin, mkasick, and noobnl did it yesterday though but called 911 today through proper means and verified that it works. And pushed the fix upstream to official CM so that it can be included in.

So I just got my phone a few days ago and while browsing the web I noticed my screen sometimes loses color? Like it goes black and while lines like a static from a tv.

No, that would not cause it. The symptom of that issue is fluctuating brightness not color dropping out. The problem could be a bad video connector or cable in the phone, or a bad display panel. Take it back while you can.

The blobs that everyone donated for was clearly a possible hardware issue which means that nobody would be able to fix it without mods made by hand. At best all he could do was look into it. Its not his fault people paid for a new phone just to look into it.
The whole situation is analogous to if Samsung released a new phone where a quarter of them had bad search buttons. It could be a software issue but likely a hardware problem with QA. Instead of exchanging the phone people then proceeded to setup a bounty to buy a new phone to get this fixed. Its looked into and it turns out its just a bad solder connecting the search button. This would of been likely in the first place and people should of just exchanged their phone rather than setting up a bounty for something which has a fair likelihood of being a hardware issue.
You have a hardware issue then exchange your phone.
If the blobs bother you exchange your phone. If the blobs only bother you when you have to follow a page of instructions on how to see it, really. If you need to follow a multi step guide to see it then its not that big of a deal. If it is then exchange your phone.

Mine is also dimmer than it was on ICS. After the OTA update I noticed it. Did factory reset with same results.

I got a text message last night and the LED was fully illuminated, but after I opened it and received another message after it was dim again.

Not really positive about details. I think they are more efficient. Whether they use more power I have no idea. I know our utilities company is offering to take old Christmas lights and they give you LED strands instead for free.

Single color LEDs are quite efficient. These multi-color, variable brightness LEDs are somewhat less so. That doesn't really matter the question at hand though because most of the power drain of LEDs is just having them on. The difference in power drain from a low intensity to a high intensity is marginal.
I've sent my Galaxy Nexus off for screen replacement twice now - both times, the Samsung UK repair centre in Norwich has said there is no fault found.
It's really not that hard to miss - I have a large area of different colours where the navigation bar lives compared to the rest of the screen. It makes landscape video watching quote annoying.
Has anyone else had problems getting out replaced? Mine was just 11 months old when I first sent it off, back in March. This time around, it was marked as repaired and awaiting delivery on the 10th April - I called today to find out what's happening with it, only to be told it was still on the premises.
Not really the service standards I'd hoped for - the handset was over £500 when I got it.

I know it happens, though I'd hoped using the pentile display would've eliminated the problems they had with the Galaxy S and S2. My question was has anyone else had issues getting the display swapped when under a year old?
I think at this age, it's a premature failure. Am I mistaken?

No, far from it. Screen is always set to automatic brightness, with 30 second time-out. It's never been left on overnight, used as a sat-nav, or streamed vast amounts of TV or anything like that.
This is why I'm so annoyed - I don't mistreat it. And a phone of this calibre should remain defect-free for longer than 11 months, surely...

No, far from it. Screen is always set to automatic brightness, with 30 second time-out. It's never been left on overnight, used as a sat-nav, or streamed vast amounts of TV or anything like that.
This is why I'm so annoyed - I don't mistreat it. And a phone of this calibre should remain defect-free for longer than 11 months, surely...

This. It happens. I never leave my screen on for more than 2 minutes, unless I'm watching a video, which then the status bar and navbar are hidden.
So it just happens, unfortunately.
Mine doesn't burn-in.but there are two brighter lines than other areas ,at the top and bottom of the screen.
