It's a bit hard to understand your English but I'm guessing your mom has this phone and has had an image burn into the screen.. I don't know what you mean by "I will get it A/S" but I haven't had a problem with anything burning into the screen if that helps

Hard to imagine the phone developing display/image burn-in just in one week. Check for other culprits.

That's actually not that uncommon for AMOLED screens. But it shouldn't happen under normal stock conditions unless you let it run 24/7 or something. A lot of the in-store display models will have that effect cuz they are actually on 24/7 displaying some demo crap.
The only time I've experienced it is with my old Galaxy Nexus, which had a custom kernel that kicked the display power wayyy up to increase brightness and a bug that made my screen display a clock overnight. So now against a white background there's a visible "8:58" in the middle.
Again, this shouldn't happen unless that blue screen was on your phone for half a day at full brightness. But if you do see discoloration that's persistent, I'd go for a warranty claim. Hope that helps

I already have a CDMA Verizon nexus.
I order a GSM nexus and got it yesterday.
The difference between the two screens is so ridiculously noticeable I want to smash the phone
The original verizon one is vibrant and bright.
The new gsm one is dull looking. it flickers slightly when I do solid color tests. whites look dull.
Absolute fricken BULL ****.
Go eat **** google
Dont feed the troll my little [put in any word].
Maybe you just got a bad one?
Thought about it?
I've had both and never noticed a difference between the two. Maybe something is wrong with your new one.
Its a common thing as ive read in other posts but its googles fault for allowing it to happen.
You know Google doesn't manufacture the phones, right?

He a troll, anybody with half a brain would just ask for a replacement if it was that bad/defective. I got a lemon evo 3d,, posting a thread bashing the phone isn't gonna fix it, Radio Shack replaced it immediatly. In before lock!
I received a terrible screen from Verizon for my first phone. I was dull, and had weird banding and a dead pixel... They did t believe me until I made them compare mine to a display model. The only issue I had getting a new one was that I had accidentally let the play store re download titanium backup. They then tried to say I was rooted, root checker failed, then they tried to aay the app broek my screen.....
Tl;Dr just get a replacement and stop whining.

NO its about a huge inconsistency in screen quality from nexus to nexus, amoled to amoled.

i'm going to make this simple for you since you clearly have no understanding of how this all works.
google hired samsung to manufacture the phone.
samsung makes phone and QC checks their batches.
samsung then packages and sends phones to google for sale
google takes ALREADY PACKAGED PHONES IN THE BOX and sells them
do you honestly believe google is going to open up sealed boxes and check every phone? if you do, you are completely insane and need to be checked in somewhere.

Please tell me you've never, in the history of your life, purchased a product, brought it home only to open the package to find its defective. Tell me you never had to return a product to get a replacement, or simply return a product because you weren't happy with it??
If you haven't - then you have horseshoes where the sun doesn't shine... Products aren't HANDMADE anymore... quality control nowadays goes as far as checking 2 or 3 phones out of hundreds on a production line.

Seriously... why so much rage? If its actually defective, have it replaced.
I just received my Google Play Nexus and as soon as I booted it up to the first screen I could tell the display was trash. It was stupidly purple and grainy. I know this isn't normal because I've owned 2 GSM Nexi previously. Even without owning them, it's pretty easy to see something is wrong with the display. How does this get released to the public?
I really don't feel like going through multiple replacements until I get a good screen. What are my options as far as guaranteeing a good screen? Thanks.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
send it back and get a new one or flash a kernel and change the colors.
Pretty much nothing, going to have to stick with it or do a bunch of the advanced replacements or return it. I'm about to be on my fourth galaxy nexus. Even when I requested the most recent one they were bullshitting me telling me I was out of warranty when it had only been 1 week from the last replacement. I have wasted about 3hrs the past 2 days on the phone and got nothing but big fat NOs for any more returns and they told me id have to send in a repair and this was from a level 3 advanced return employee. This asshole level 3 god of samsung decided to make notes on my file saying I was out of warranty and not to advance replace my phone. He apparently was for sure that warranty was only for 14 days from date of purchase and would not listen to me. Thankfully I called a couple times more until I got connected with someone who sounded like they had the slightest amount of intelligence without redirecting me (i had to call very many times because mostmof the regular employees were seeing the notes the douche left on my account about not allowing me to advanced replace and telling me no)and ended talking to a standard employee who normally takes care of repairs/returns and she was like wtf u are still under warranty I'll fix everything in the records and send you a new one.
IMO if I were you I'd do anything to get rid of that phone without going thru Samsung. They'll bull**** you and run u around in circles and youll waste plenty of life on the phone with their garbage customer service. END RANT

I've owned two GSM Gnex's and never had a issue with the screen. I hope the one I get Thursday is ok.
I went through a single replacement with Google then returned the replacement because it was worse than the original. If purple bothers you, a custom kernel - like Trinity - will definitely fix it. However nothing can be done about grain and banding. My suggestion is return the phone and don't bother exchanging it if the latter two bother you.
I have seen a good gnex side by side with mine and I want to cry - the other has no grain or banding at all - however i just don't have the energy to fight Samsung on this and play endless exchange game, and wish I'd just returned the phone to Google and gotten something else. For the record I have two dark bands - one vertical and one horizontal - crossing in the middle of the screen, in addition to a heavy dose of grain. Trinity wiped out all purple though.

My screen only goes purple when set to the lowest brightness. Is that the normal "purple" behavior people are talking about? Otherwise there is a noticeable snap back into the greys around 5-10% brightness.

Even if I could fix the colors (Which I doubt, they are so far off) there is an extreme amount of graininess to the screen. It's visible even on max brightness.

long story short.
i have insurance. my phone got run over while i was biking and the screen is shattered and the screen will not display ANYTHING but the phone actually still turns on and lights up and i can odin and all that.
so is there anyway i can go about getting the phone replaced WITHOUT paying $100 to assurion?
any advice?
once again, phone seems to actually work fine but it is not functional in that the screen remains black and will not display anything, so a replacement is needed..
EDIT:
also phone is rooted so if i took it into a sprint store, should i odin stock, and if yes wouldn't it then show my odin count @ 1?
would they even bother checking for root if the phone's screen was dead? is there any chance of me getting the phone replaced free of charge or cheaper then via insurance?

You had an accident- insurance is for accidents- they wont be looking for suspicious Roms when a phone looks like it was " run over by a car " ..be glad you have insurance- ask for a new phone- dont settle for a refurb. if you can help it. ( refurbs are usually fixed phones, prior lemons, or returns-) and last thing- cry the blues !!!! get their sympathy- maybe if its a hot sales lady, you might even get her number.... no- but seriously- use a bit of drama to get their compassion....

hi all.
i think my display is defective. i've read many thread about it but i haven't found anyone describing the same exact issue, very noticeable horizontal lines.
however, since i've also read that someone who sent the phone to samsung, received it back with another defective screen, i'm asking your help.
is this problem, exactly this one, so widespread and i have to live with it or i'm just one of the few and, since it's still under warranty, i should send it to samsung immediatly!? :fingers-crossed:
there are 2 attachments, the wallpaper i ask you to try (it is more noticeable with red, but it appears with most solid colors) and a photo showing how mine looks like, screenshots don't reveal it.
do you see the same effect?
this is not a rom issue, i've experienced it with all the roms i've tryed.
thanks a lot for your help!
Go for it, but that's if Samsung actually won't charge you for it, I feel like they'd claim you damaged it, being the assholes they are, and then charge like $200, in which case you may want to either get a new phone or buy another GalNex from eBay.
Good luck, warranty claim sucks lol

Actually this is Samsung screen. I used to have it on my Galaxy S and when screen broke and I got new screen, it was the same like this.Galaxy S3 of my dad has it. my Gnex has it. But not that much. But the lines should be vertical. Your screen is probably messed up because even that is normal, you really have to focus to see this with naked eye. Those lines also appear rarely.
Wow, mine is perfect. I'm awesome (jk)
I could barely see any lines but I do have the horizontal lines. Mine are most noticeable on white backgrounds and stuff, mostly the browser. It bugs me but it doesn't, it's not too bad and it goes away completely with more brightness and gets worse when the screen is really dim.
thank you guys for having shared your experiences... thanks a lot!

So I got my brand new Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus from T-Mobile about 2 and a half days ago now. On the beginning of the second day I woke up to notice (With the phone sitting on my nightstand charging like any other phone I've had) that the phone was very very hot to the touch. Upon further inspection after I unplugged it I noticed (To my horror! 0.0) There is now a giant running crack along the left side of the phone. Being in a case from day 1 and NEVER being dropped, this is most definitely NOT accidental damage by any means. (At least in my opinion ). Since the incident I've contacted Samsung and they've provided me with a shipping label to have them take a look at the device. Was really hoping for this to be my best phone yet (Since the Note 4 ). Let's all hope Samsung pulls through and helps me out in this situation! I'll post pictures below and keep you guys updated on what's happening as far as the phone goes! :highfive:

UPDATE!!!: THEY FIXED IT, LOL I UPDATED THE FRONT THREAD TO SAVE YOU FROM SCROLLING
Hmmmm.....this is OP first ever post
It is certainly possible that the battery swelled like the nexus 6 batteries did. The pressure could have cracked the glass but it is likely that samsung would deny that claim. I would document everything and even charge it up again and record the temperature of the phone when it's over heating. Try to remember we all had one post once. I discovered XDA when I was having problems with my LG thrill.

Thanks for the advice I charged it up for a second time and the phone didn't hear up as much. I'll keep you updated (I'm sending it in on Tuesday and living with it until then

More often than not, these first time posters will start a thread like this spreading FUD and drop out leaving everyone in a panic. Somehow those threads become a warzone. ? I'm not saying that is the case here though.
(Not the case here + Update on Phone)
(Whoever just said that this was to cause hype, it's not. It actually legit happened here).
UPDATE
I'm so pissed right now. Samsung called me back and gave me the runaround that this was accidental damage! :crying: . They've really pissed me off. This was not accidental damage and now they want to send it back to me. Going to try to contact their repair center on Monday and appeal this case but other than that I need other options!
If anyone else has any ideas on what to do please let me know!

Yeah, this one reason of self-destructing curved glasses keeps me away too.
Samsung is being inundated with complains from customers of their Edge self-destructing.
I just hate it. HATE IT!
Help

Good Idea But I feel like I don't have enough followers etc. So if I give you my twitter please "retweet it" Lmao, Matt_My3rs.
It'll be an $175 deductible for T-Mobile insurance.
Will try!
