Is this line on my screen normal? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I've noticed a couple of long lines on my Galaxy Nexus and am wondering if my screen is defective. There is a line going down the the screen on the upper right to the right of top stories and one going from left to right between Sacramento and the temperature.

I don't see any line in that screenshot. Could be a screen defect.

Check again. I uploaded a better picture.

If its a defect with the screen, it doesn't show up in a screenshot....
A screenshot shows what's being sent to the screen, not what the screen eventually shows.

Probably a defect, can't see it.

There's no line there. It must be your display.

We don't know because we can't see it with a screenshot! Everything in these screenshots is 100% normal.
D'oh.... take a picture of the screen on with another camera. that's the only way we can see wtf you're talking about...

Yes there is a line there. It's called design.

The line going left to right between Sacramento and the temperature is part of the design (clearly, because it shows up in the screenshot and I have the same look on my phone). There's no line up top, at least not the one separating the tabs lol. Since the screenshot you had uploaded before had that area circled, I'm guessing that there's something wrong with your display there.

Why is this even on page 2.
OP, do YOU see this line issue in the screenshot?
If it's yes, then nothing's wrong with your screen.
If it's no, then there's something wrong with your screen.

Ok here's another screenshot with a gray screen with brightness set to 100%. I want to know if this is normal with these types of screens.

Are you referring to the horizontal banding (normal)? If not, I don't see anything abnormal.

PLEASE. READ. READ. READ.
If there is a problem with YOUR screen, WE cannot SEE it in a screenshot. A screenshot does not show US defects in YOUR screen. Simply taking a screenshot, and putting on your own computer next to the same image on your actual phone will tell you right away if it's your phone or not.... Why won't you just listen...
smh.

Alright I have banding and read on some forums that a replacement fixes the issue. Does anyone know how long is the turnaround time for repairs?

That banding is normal. There is nothing wrong with your screen. If you did have a screen issue it won't show up in a screen shot anyways, you're just capturing screen input.

Ok well I think my screen is defective because I looked at the thread showing pictures of the GN screen and what's normal and what's not and the attached picture is what I'm seeing on my screen (transparent line) and the poster said that is not normal.

Yeah... you've got some vertical banding. That's not a unique problem you have, as many others users get it as well. Not much you can do except for get a replacement screen or phone and pray the new one doesn't have it. But in most cases, you're going to have the banding on low brightness on the Gnex.

Very nice, the SGS2 is going to be my new phone if I can go away from my keyboard on my Rooted G2 I hope the transition goes well.
It looks very clean with the icons and no labels under them, how did you do that?

The SGSII phones don't need an app to take screen shots. Samsung included this feature on the phones. Take a screen shot by holding the power & home buttons at the same time. Hope this helps.

Are these spots on the top normal? I played around with the tabs and close it, then it jumps to the other side.
are you referring to the blue glow at the edge? If so yes, that is to inform you there are more tabs

Yep, I've used grass since my Nexus One. I just wish someone could do some tweaks and variations on it for different seasons. I know Beautiful Widgets sort of does that, but it slows the phone way down.

But as you can see it's a bit grainy and has weird bubbles in it.
And while I'm at it, an extra super huge bonus if you can find this one in 960x800 or higher resolution:
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I too would like the real wallpapers, and not just some duplicate. The mock-up that the other user made in the other thread doesn't look the same.
And to the person above this post, those aren't light sabers. They're Androids on motorcycles.
I guess I'm a bit late with this but while searching for this wallpaper through Google I found both this thread and this and this:

"Cocaine Is One Hell Of A Drug" Addicted To My White Galaxy S II

Does the Galaxy Nexus have a case like this?

My friend just got the S3 and I saw him last night. His phone had this cover on it: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...ds=Samsung+Protective+Flip+Cover<br /><br />I it looks sick in person, I figured they MIGHT have one for the Nexus being from Samsung and all, but I've not seen one that was the same (I did find a few flip case ones, but nothing as slick as the one for the S3. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place? I figured I'd have seen one by now if they had them, but who knows.
I have the otterbox case currently, and I've had it since it came out, but I'm hoping for something a little nicer at this point.
this is the only one I know about, no where as sexy but it's similar. link

I almost got the rock case. But then I realized that battery life would drop significantly seeing that it covers the notification led.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
the notification led uses barely any battery and you could cut a hole out with an exacto knife
Maybe I'm missing something here... Why would your battery be reduced by covering the notification LED? I fail to see how this affects the battery.
And plus, isn't the LED "covered" in a sense, when it is in your pocket? Am I the only one finding this a strange statement?
BTW, I do not mean to come by as rude or disrespectful I just don't understand....

The led is probably one of the least power consuming part in your whole phone. Even the headset speaker uses more power lol..

I think he means because he would be turning the screen on more often to check for notifications since he won't be able to see the led blinking?

That doesn't make sense. If that was his concern, he'd just open the case and see if the light was blinking or not much like he'd do if there was no case.
If I'm going through the trouble of opening the case, I'm not gonna wait to see the led. I'll still turn on the screen. That would be the battery consumer, turning it on more frequently

Where you purchased this? and how much?
^^Seen a similar design flip case here in abu dhabi, about $15, but it is quite hard to install I don't know why..it will replace your original battery cover. Less protection on the sides of the phone but hey a hard to find accessory
Dude get yourself a Seidio case and protect your phone in style.

Man, if you could find the website where you got this, that would be awesome. It's not quite the same as the one for the S3, but it's probably the "closest" i've seen, and I would settle for that one.
I like this kind of cases but don't like the leather battery cover

Screen Tint with viewing angle!!

So it mainly happens with the white colour when i look directly at the screen everything is perfect but when i adjust the viewing angle even slightly the white colour gets this bluish tint is tht normal??
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
It's exactly opposite for me. When I look at it from a straight angle (90°) it looks Yellowish, but when I angle it at 45° the screen becomes pure whitish.
Again, each and every AMOLED screen is different. If I were you I'd not bother to replace the unit.

I too have a tint when viewed at angle, but all my amoled screens i used before had a tint at an angel...it doesn't bother me much
hundreds of posts about it in perhaps also hundreds of threads through the device forums.
as i told in a lot of posts: had to switch through more than 10 note1 screens to get a perfect one,
atm i'm on my 4th note2... i will wait until the 64gb versions are out and start the search again!

Yeah, thats how it is all the time on my Galaxy nexus too,. I always have like 20% brightness and when you are in a dark room, you see the lines all the time and its annoying.
i don't know about nexus 4, Google has a bad track record of good displays. and not accurate color temperatures.
When I first got my gnex I kept the brightness really low. Then I thought to myself, "I bought a nice phone; it has a REALLY nice screen when the brightness is turned up all the way...why keep it low?".
Since then it's on FULL brightness and I've never looked back! Takes a couple of days for you to get used to the brightness though :^) (Yes I know it decreases battery life but it's worth it -- give it a try).

No problem when it display white color?
I keep mine at a solid 50% brightness, seems to work for most situations and also looks great. I've also tweaked the colors slightly to change it from a warm image to a cool image.
No flaws on white screens at all, around 8 months of ownership.
