Okay so the title is misleading but please continue reading.
I have a sprint galaxy nexus and love it. The one thing is that when I have the brightness on half full or full I run into an issue. If I open an app like play store and for the quick second it loads on a gray screen I can see outlines of my home screen. When I ran kernels it was more visible but on stock I can still see the 4.2 clock widget outline. Its like a ghost image or bleed image.
Is this normal? Does anyone have any information of what this could be and solutions?
I tried searching but I don't know the correct term so its difficult.
Thanks.

Your screen has a burnt in image. Its fairly common with phones with OLED displays so don't worry.
this thread may help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394358
even though it says that image retention is "not OK" i would say that if the retention doesnt last for more than 5 seconds you should be ok, i sometimes get a bit of it too but it goes away fast

This. Image ghosting is just part of the SAMOLED display.
such gost image is mostly because of software issue but as u said u have tried custom rom as well as stock rom even though the problem is der...
so mostly its a hardware issue to be more specific, the ghost image is formed when ur processor is overheated..
have u tried overclocking ur processor ? dat might be the main reason..
if your phone is under warrenty den solution for that is flash the official stock firmware and go to service centre.
or else u r out of warrenty den just ignore it...but be sure not to overclock it ..

I flashed Franco kernel over rasbean and left it untouched and the colors were more vivid but the burnt image was much more visible. But on stock its just the clock because its bright white and the faded image is less than 1 second.
I bought the phone off eBay. I got the original box with serial but idk if I can claim warranty.
I haven't over clocked the device because the 1.2 g dual core is blazing fast when coming from a 1 g single core.
Any other inputs? Im just confused if this is normal, hardware, software.

That seems normal as long as its not showing when above like 30% brightness.
Sometimes vertical lines show up to some degree (banding) some of the custom ROMs including CyanogenMod have a feature that reduces the issue.
I myself have an issue with horizontal lines burned into the screen at any brightness. I think it was from turning the color values up to the max even though I didn't keep it high for that long. I've considered sending it into Samsung service center to get the screen replaced, except doesn't the repair process take weeks?

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.

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.

Just bought my galaxy nexus off of somebody on craigslist, and I absolutely love it coming from an htc amaze 4g. This phone is lightning quick and extremely responsive. I can see grain because of the pentile, and also have the purple issue when brightness is low as well as incredibly low speaker. I'm kinda worried about the limited 16Gb internal memory. Other than that, I prefer this phone over my friends S3!! I love this phone!!!!! My first Samsung! Nice to meet you all! Any suggestions and apps u guys would recommend? I

Only 1 hour?? Most people here get 3 to 4 hours screen on time, some I've seen even 5. You should go ahead and root it and install a custom kernel so you can adjust the color settings to fix that purple tint issue

You should be able to get longer than that with the screen on. Are you switching everything on at the same time? e.g. GPS, wireless, LTE (perhaps?), or perhaps having emails sync every minute... Even if it's heavy gaming you're doing you should get longer than that.

Lol no guys. If anything I would probably get 90 minutes maximum screen on time on my HTC amaze. the battery life on that phone was the worst I've seen in my life. Auto sync off, brightness at 10% , mobile data off, and just some texting.
Also I was thinking of flashing a either kernel, but the phone is perfect the way it is lol. What are other benefits from custom kernel?

You can change the color profile with a custom kernel to get rid of the purple tint. You can also undervolt and underclock for better battery life. You can overclock too, but the CPU is more than enough @stock for most tasks
First thing I'd check out is Jubakuba's sticky in the Q&A forum, all about unlocking boot loader, rooting, flashing ROMs, etc. Big timesaver is just flash bigxie's 4.1.1 ROM which is rooted, with busybox, gapps, and deodexed. Trinity kernel will let you adjust color, boost volume, and overclock (or underclock to save battery). People also like Franco's kernel. Another good flashable mod is Thyrus's Nav bar w/menu button, which also gives you expanded power-off menu with reboot and recovery options. (Does require deodexed ROM so won't work on stock). And you might want to try a replacement launcher like Nova or Apex.
Or you might just want to enjoy the stock Jellybean experience for a while before modding. Have fun.
Thanks for the responses guys!! I read around and I see I have to use Odin? I'm more of a fast boot command prompt type of guy lol . I'm scared to mess up nexus :/ is performance better with custom kernels? Oh boy I'm going to have do tons of reading!!! Lol.

120°F / 51° C seems very hot to me. My Gnex is on 84°F / 29°C. Even after playing high performance games it doesn´t heat up more than to 111°F / 44°C
What Rom / Kernel / Build are you running?
I'm running the latest Vicious/CM10 w/latest Franco but I've tried several other ROMs...none of my other gnex's ran this hot...it will go up to 160 with the slightest task to the point where it is uncomfortable to touch on the upper part of the screen.

maybe try the paranaoid android rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619582. there are a few reports about overheating with the stock CM10 kernel, but works perfectly for me. solutions there are switching to trinity kernel or franco as well. but mainly the overheating shoult result from a bad kernel.
If you don´t want to put on another rom, maybe switch back to an older / stable version of francos.
I don't think it is a kernel issue because I just got this replacement...(have had 6 gnex's...long story) was running the exact setup...never had any heat issues until this one. Even when it was bone stock I noticed the upper part of the screen was hot to the touch.

then give back to your reseller. sounds like a factory problem then. phone shouldn´t heat up this much. not even it´s uncortable it may crash your phone (or parts of it) in the long run.

i feel like you two don't know what you are talking about and idk wtf you are doing to your phone that you've had to return 6 of them? derp but, that's besides the point
now the issue at hand, i've had over heating since jelly bean on custom roms which has shut my phone down ... it seems to be a kernel issue as far as i can tell ... i'd recommend trinity's TNP1344-307-JB-STABLE35 http://goo.gl/jry8c
if the problem persists go back to stock ... and quit sending your phones back you are the reason why carriers don't want people to unlock their bootloaders
50°c is normal operating temp, the gnex has a thermal throttle that kicks in at around 75°c, then it scales down the cpu. You also have to consider the ambient temperature outside. Its 95°- 100°f here during the day, of course your phone will run a little hotter when its hot outside. Just use your phone
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Just dip ya phone in water, that should stop it getting to hot :cyclops:
Most of the phones I sent back I did not modify at all...asurion sent me 5 defective devices that all had hardware issues...(faulty screen, broken buttons, no radio, DOA, etc...probably refurbs), they then reimbursed me for buying a new phone through Verizon and it does not have any of those issues. I tried Trinity and it is running slightly cooler now. As for me not knowing what I'm talking about, that is why I asked in the first place. I didn't know what the average running temp. is.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Just flash back to stock and see if you still have the overheating. If nothing changes you have a defective phone. I don't think my gnex has ever reached 120° F even with some mild overclocking and heavy use.
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...

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.
