Hi guys, sorry if this is stupid question, but i never had a amoled device before, so, is it normal white/yellow/gray colours gets a little bluish when looking it in angles?

Yes. its normal with this type of (see pentile matrix) screen.
There is also about 15 other threads on this topic.

Hm if I remember correctly, the samsung galaxy s II has an option to adjust the saturation of the screen.. does the galaxy nexus have the same option somewhere?

I posted in another thread for others who search for a resolution to this issue...another user mentioned an app called "screen adjuster". I downloaded it and gave it a whirl, and while it fixed the color temp of my screen, it also introduced tons of lag to my device. I think the problem is that it's an app that has to run in the background and change every screen actively. An app that is that resource intensive can't be good for my battery, so I got rid of it. I've read that some devs are working on adding a color saturation/temp adjustment to their roms, does anyone have any insight on this? I've searched "display calibration" and "display temp" and haven't come up with any distinct claims, just speculation.

Hi to all,
I checked this forum and I can't see similar threads. If it exists just merge it or post a link and close this one. Thanks.
My problem is that I recently bought Samsung Y and for now I can't use to its touch grid. I used HTC tattoo before and it was everything ok with using its touch grid. With Samsung i always must touch slightly up and left than "I can see it needs to be touched". I red in some forums that you cannot calibrate screen because Samsung have some algorithm for autocalibrating but for me it isn't working. The phone has horizontal calibration but it is not what I need. And this problem I have with all applications not just with keyboard (although it is annoying when you type one SMS for a long time!).
Please help me if you can. I rooted my HTC, and if it helps I can root Samsung too, but I can't see that that would help.
uhmm try going to the settings then use the calibration tool..lay flat your galaxy y on a flat surface and press calibrate..this works for me.. ;-)

Like I said in Subject of the thread, I do not need horizontal calibration. :-(
I think the best solution is send it to Samsung service centre since you still have the warranty.

I think that the calibrate function under settings calibrates horizontally and vertically as well.
Hello all,
I've been poking and prodding my new USA GSM Galaxy Nexus all day and I noticed something: the screen seems to have a dynamic contrast function, similar to that of new TVs. I would like to turn this function off, although I don't see anything in the stock ROM to do this.
NOTE: I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT "AUTOMATIC BRIGHTNESS".
I want to see if anyone else can reproduce this or if it's just me.
Turn off "Automatic brightness"
Set your phone to 100% brightness.
Hold your Galaxy Nexus in portrait mode.
Go to this page in your browser on your Galaxy Nexus:
http://www.samsung.com/us/
(make sure to request the desktop site and not the mobile site in your browser of choice)
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and zoom into the black section with all the links. Zoom in as far as you can. If you're using Chrome, the words "Who We Are" should go across the length of your screen.
Scroll your screen so the words "Who We Are" is at the top of the screen and no white background is present at the top of the screen. The lettering should be pure white. Remember where they are.
Slowly scroll the page up by swiping your finger down the screen so that you gradually see more of the white background and less of the black background until the black background completely disappears off the bottom of the screen.
Swipe back up so that the words "Who We Are" are in the same vertical position they were in Step 6.
Repeat steps 6-8 multiple times at a faster rate. As you keep scrolling, watch the brightness of the screen and/or the whiteness of the words "Who We Are". When you first start to see white, the white will be white, but when more white starts to take over the screen, the phone switches to a less-intense white. (I'm assuming to save battery)
Is anyone else experiencing this?
download supercurio's voodoo mod sequel, the displayexpert beta in the voodomods forum. there is an option to turn off the dynamic brightness limiter. works perfectly!
This comes up once in a while, and many people say they see this issue. But I just can't see it! The sgs2 has the option to turn this off, but nexus doesn't.
Is this available in the kernel code to view and tweak,or is it closed?

I'm not really a dev in any sense, but would like to see if this function is in the kernel and not hidden. If its not hidden then I'd imagine someone would have added an on/off option by now. So I'm not the person to handle this. My ability is at most compiling my own kernel with a little code change, at most, unfortunately.
Yeah. There is some kind of brightness limiter like plasmas have it too to meet energy star standards. Its a lot less noticeable on a phone screen and probably helps with power management. It can be a bummer on plasma watching hockey or movies like ice age. I would gather there is a way to tweak it. On plasma, no go.
teach a man to fish, you feed him for life. teach a man to fastboot, and you create competency. and less threads on xda.

all plasmas can turn off dynamic whatever. i am referring to what is called auto brightness limiter aka ABL. i know samsung and panasonic utilize it in their plasmas. no way to tweak it. there is something similar with samsung phones with amoled. bright images get toned down because all the white/brightness suck a lot of juice. i don't know if it can be tweaked on phones, but i think it can somehow.

Guys I observed this closely and I found that this flickering occouring oly some times and it's clearly visible only in apps when I set a white wallpaper on homescreen can't see any flickering but at same time its there in browser gallery etc and when I touch screen it disapperas and reoccur when I didn't touch display but this flickering is present only for some time not continuous. I think it's not display problem but software glitch which all of u have and u guys might not noticed it

I took it to customer care yesterday and it was funny that the guy there showed me his note 3 which also have same flickering and they said that it's normal with amoled due to voltage variation at low brightness levels.So I left customer care without replacing display:victory:

am using latest 4.3 update I think it's problem with Indian INU firmware will be solved by 4.4 soon guess
I did a factory reset yesterday and kept brigtness above half till now I didnt have ny flickering.
I found this on web
There seems to be a
problem where the phone has problems
deciding if the software or hardware(CPU
vs. GPU) is what should be drawing the
screen… So this indecision causes it to
switch back and forth, redraw, etc….
Over at XDA there are lots of post relating
to this problem. Below is a temporary
solution to the problem
Here are the instructions!!
Temp Fix: (until they find/fix the problem)
1. Go to settings > about phone
2. Click “build number” 6 times fast
3. You’ll see “you’re now a developer” as
a notification at the bottom.
4. Go back to settings, you’ll now see
developer options above ‘about phone’.
5. Go in developer options, and click
“disable hardware overlays” under the
drawing section
This will fix the flickering!! The problem is
with android 4.2.x, the OS gets confused
and can’t decide if the CPU or the GPU
should be drawing the screen, so it flickers
do to it switching between the CPU and
GPU real fast…
Hope this helps anyone out there
experiencing this problem, and spread the
word to anyone else you know to make it
known! Loads of people are re flashing,
returning to stock, even returning their
phones because of this bug! So spread the
word to prevent others from making this
mistake.

I have had my Samsung Galaxy S4 mini (GT-I9195) for like 2 years.
Like 2 days earlier i tried to root it and stuff! it worked!
Then tried a rom... and i got some weird icons in the bottom right corner, they would appear at certain things like when i look at my home screen they are there... But like when i scroll down the notification tab it does not show on there... WEIRDEST PART IS THAT when i take a screenshot the icons don't appear...
Ive tried everything getting a "STOCK ROM" for my device
Even rebooting does not help..
Can somebody help me get rid of those weird overlay icons?
Any hope fixing it?

strange, it looks a bit like your digitiser is bad but I have never seen one with patterns like that. It may just seem to disappear depending on the screen colors. It almost looks like ghosting or watermark (electronic) of a digital clock....
There's an app that can test for dead pixels that might help I think someone said on another thread.

Yes strange that it happened after root etc, so you would assume it's related. Which root, rom, kernal?
The pixel app can't fix (probably) but might show you the problem or rule out the screen as the cause. I don't know which app is good, just search pay store with something like "screen tester"

Okay... I'am so confused when i tried one of the "Screen fix apps" some of them didnt even show the watermark down right corner... By the way it was the root that i used it was "S4 mini rootkit" or something like that.. Is that a screen problem or do i have to fix it physically like removeing the screen and then putting it back on (but it might be risky)..

now I'm confused! Ha! Ha! So some of the screen test apps show the screen is working fine will others don't?
Well at least if some app show all colours/tests screens with no "ghost" icon that means at least it's not a hardware issue stuck pixel etc. That might suggest it's an app causing it. (I am assuming you got your kernal and rom from a trustworthy source and not some random download site!) Boot into safe mode so 3rd party apps don't work, do you still see the strange icon like marks?

Well I'm at a loss. Nothing I can think of seems to match all the symptoms you say and the shapes. If it's not in the software then I would guess it's some damage to screen but you say it doesn't appear on old ROM. It's not 3rd party apps so must be the rom/kernal, but still seems strange. And those shapes make stuck pixels seem unlikely ......
If it was me I'd flash another ROM, if not fixed, flash another kernal, if still not fixed then flash the stock ROM to start with a clean phone and then flash another ROM.

Yes. It's something Samsung has had for ages now. I mean Google took the time to create a scheduled system for blue light reduction, yet couldn't bother to do the same with Ambient Display. It's either on 24-7 or off.
The best solution I've found is to put a piece of paper or such over the top sensor at night so the phone will think the device is in a pocket and turn off the screen.

Cheers for the tip! :good::good: We've done my part now let's wait
I just got my pixel 2 XL and can't believe google has not enabled this already, it's a very basic item and a must have for many.
Pretty pathetic, hopefully once roms start dropping this will fix many shortcomings on the device.
As mentioned in an different thread, using Accubattery will display the battery level on the AOD. In my brief testing, Google reported the app as not consuming any measurable amount of power overnight, so no appreciable battery draw. Also, there is a root app from an XDA RC that displays the music you are currently playing/streaming on to the AOD. This is different from the existing "now playing" feature already built in, and at the end of the article HERE it says that almost any "text" can be displayed on the AOD. It's not the built in Google controls for the AOD we are expecting, but there is hope for customization for those with root, and in the coming ROMs.
Well, got this notice, just don't know what "Changed" (shrug)

After I read your post I downloaded accubattery and it works quite well. Thanks for the heads up
I hope they enable the ability to keep the icon on the lockscreen while removing it from the notification panel.. that would be perfect.
