anyone else notice this? i noticed yesterday my home button is now purple instead of blue.
It's the same pebble blue color. The only difference is that the home button is not behind the gorilla glass so it has that opaque color contrast
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
no. its purple.
Are we going to argue colours all day, it shouldn't change colour maybe in different lightings it looks different but mine has always had a purplish colour to it.
Why not post a picture instead of arguing?
I returned my pebble blue for the white because of this

Do you work with oils or solvents? Like a paint thinner or for that matter whiskey.

The pen is BLUE! The pen is Bluuuuuuee!
But that button is purple. I have the pebble blue and had never noticed it before until SOMEONE pointed it out (point) .Mine looks like yours.
On closer inspection kitkit201 is also correct. The color of the metal used on the bezel seems to be impregnated as that purple color. The Gorilla glass changes it's appearance once applied. The button however is raw so no glass, no coating, no love and therefore will look different much like stained wood when compared to unstained wood.
I'm the po-po so no solvents....lol

Does anyone else notice vertical lines on the screen, especially when the brightness is low?
Its extremely annoying on auto brightness. I'm wondering of mines a dud. Looks kind of grainy. I'm wondering if its the screen size.
UPDATE : since using other Roms and keeping my brightness on at least halfway I do not notice these lines much at all anymore.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
If you came from a Qhd display it should look grainy to you. Try using a different launcher than touchwiz.
Yea I know it has a low resolution. I have a sensation. The lines are just crazy though
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
can you take a picture with a camera and show us?
You probably won't be able to see anything. Turn your brightness all the way down and see if you can notice what I'm talking about.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
no lines here at any brightness level.
none on mine as well.
It might depend on your background pic. Look for it on the lock screen if you haven't changed the stock one yet... I see what the OP is talking about. But with different wallpapers I dont see it.
I got two of these and its the same on both so dont think its a flaw. But I will be passing by TMO when I'm out again to see if the display units is the same!
I have the lines as well. Noticed them also on my Nexus S.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
it starting to sounds more like color banding what you are referring to
Perhaps. I never noticed it on my Other galaxies. I've had the vibrant and the 4g. And I have the sensation. Big difference from the qhd. But I like this screen better. Maybe it is this "color banding". Its niticible on certain colors like gray or green when the brightness is low.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
It seems to look similar to when you are using the camera and you see all the "noise" before you snap. The picture.
Please excuse my terminology.
However these are stationary. The lines don't move. You will notice them as you swipe left to right on something. Perhaps I am just being picky.

Lines probably coming from a color banding problem the original galaxy s 2 had the issue as well. It was fix with a update
Definitely not a color banding issue. If you're on the home screen and you slowly scroll and watch closely, the vertical lines do not follow the wallpaper and objects as they should if this was a color banding issue.
Aw wth?! I have lines on mines too.

Ah hah. XP i'm not the only one
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

I just noticed i have them too, and they seem to be there too even at higher brightness.
Yes! Definitely going back to find one without this issue. 90% of the reason I got this phone was for the incredible screen and I don't have to tell you how disappointing it is to find that flaw.

This might sound odd, but im just wondering what colour Nexus everyone has?
My first one was Charcoal Grey and now this one is Titanium Silver. Bit gutted as I liked my grey one better
Mine is dark grey. The box says charcoal grey to be precise

Mine is Titanium Silver according to the box.

Mine is a gray, not black. I would've wanted it to be black, to be honest... but still, it's looking good anyway.

wish we could get a true side-by-side shot of these. Wasn't aware of 2 colors. Is it just the same color named 2 different things?
Woah crazy, i didn't know there were two colors, mines Titanium Silver
will post a pic of my Charcoal grey model tomorrow. To be honest, Does it matter? :L It's still a great looking phone regardless of whether it's silver or charcoal.

I wanna see a picture of someone's phone that has charcoal black now. That's what I meant.
I looks like the silver model has a darker color than say, the htc legend aluminium finish(or the macbook pro).
I have a presumpcion that a silver colored plastic phone feels cheeper than black. i've seen on earlier nokia phones the silver paint would peel off after a while.
Titanium Silver

I was looking for this too, but didn't find anything even close.
So I made my own! (thanks to lunapic.com, it took all of 2 seconds)
I uploaded the original from the framework, then resized it from 480x800 to 960x800 (this may not be your size, I have an OG Evo...) - if not, try lunapic - it's pretty easy to edit images online, I used my phone & Opera (regular, not Mini)
Anyway, this is what I think you meant:
(NOTE!: Do _NOT_ just "Save As..." on the image below, download the attatched .zip file! The image below is just a thumbnail!)
If this is what you wanted, your welcome! - zmag
That's actually better than what I wanted. Originally I just wanted the "solid" grey. Thanks man.

Ahh hmm, all I can suggest is maybe taking a screenshot of anything that contains the grey color you want; then use any image editor that has a "color picker/dropper" feature (to copy the grey color); then make a new image of your screen size, and wallah! you're done!
If you can't manage that, post a screenshot with something containing the grey you want, and post your screen dinensions - I'll do the rest Oh, and glad you like the stock black/grey gradient I spit out (I thought that's what you were looking for originally; that's what _I_ was searching for at least ) - zmag
I know I can do that. I've been away from a pc though. I may do it when I finally go home today, but I think I might stick with the one you posted instead.

and if you encase your phone in metal, it stops getting reception, and is no longer a phone.
You get 1 bar less, but still good signal, the same with backcover

not if you do both.
he asked about cases. that would be fully encasing.. if you add a back cover to bumper, it drops all bars, not just one each, because instead of letting some signal through. you let none.

Looks like a job well done, the colour is good. I'm not a big fan of flake on smaller items though.

Looks very very nice, just not too sure im a fan of the shimmer paint, i personally would have gone with a flat blue and a clear coat but nice job none the less. did you go as far as to paint the inside of the housing or just the outside?

The edges are painted inside too. I had a case that was flat blue and glossy, but I like the shimmer better.
