I contacted Google support live chat he advised me to increase screen brightness this didn't do much was less yellow maxed but that's just going to drain the battery think I may return it

Yeah, this is the first thing I noticed when I turned on the 5x. Coming from an old super amoled S3 with a cold bluish hue, I just attributed this to the colour temperature calibration LG used on the screens.
From what I've read on various threads like this one, it may be like the previous N5's screen that needed time for the screen glue to cure (and goes away after a few days/week), and probably normal for the 5X at this point, given that people whom received replacement phones still have this "problem".
May I suggest using the search feature next time? http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/nexus-5x-display-yellow-t3232937
haha they mentioned me in the article..

I got my Desire from Handtec and the colour is supposed to be graphite.
However, the area around the screen is almost purple in colour, especially in sunlight.
Is this normal??
Sounds like you've got what others call 'Urban Brown' - all the colours seem to be the same tbh!! lol
Does you box actually say 'Graphite'? Mine, unlocked from CPW, just has 'HTC Desire A8181' on the box...
Mine also says A8181.
Is your device particularly pinky/purply?
Bit browny/purply/silvery - depends on the light really, like this:

Yes, mine is the same as the above!
Good news.... but this isn't really graphite is it... HTC seem to love their pink all of a sudden (AMOLED, screen bevel...)
Same here guys. Bought the so called 'graphite' one off clove.co.uk but compared to a picture of a graphite one mine really does look brown. Loving the phone so not a problem and won't return it but it's false advertising!
I'm waiting for a silicone case for mine. it'll cover it then. It's not really a problem to me but I wouldn't have used the word graphite to describe the colour...

What case did you get? FlexiShield by any chance?
Anybody else having screen quality issues? First one(left) had a blueish tint and even though color representation is correct on the replacement, it has banding issues that are really noticeable when the backlight is low, so hopefully I have better luck with the 3rd.
Both phones are set to full brightness

I made a similar thread a while ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295438
Long story short, I returned it, got one that was slightly better (less overall streaks, but one bigger one in the corner) but that overheated constantly. So I swapped that one, and this one is perfect. Not a spot on it, it looks as even as an LCD.

Same here indeed. I see it as more of a grayer color but the banding is very visible, especially in Tapatalk.

Same here, I had some gradient streaks especially in the notification curtain with low light etc....bad display. Returned mine and the new one is perfect. I guess some are just better than others but definitely a defect.

I just bought an EVO 4G on Craigslist as a gift and as soon as I got home (45 minutes later) and inside, I noticed a very weird problem with the screen:

What the heck is this? I didn't notice it outside (where the transaction took place) or in my car. I can't not see it now...
I don't understand what I'm supposed to be looking at

Is this just what EVO screens look like? My Inspire sure never looked like that!
That is a problem with some evo screens. Mine looks the same. Something to do with the internals under the screen causing the whitout spots.

Thank you. Did it develop over time or did it always look like that?
This is a common problem and believe it's referred to as light leaking or something along those lines. Anyway, mine has the exact same two spots as do a lot of other people. Nothing you can do about it though and it's really not that big of a deal.
Yeah thats very common on evo 4g lcds,I dont think it develops so you dont have to worry about it getting worst...I have the same prob.with new lcd replacement.

Hello,
I'm having a, most probably, hardware issue with my GSM Galaxy Nexus. At the bottom of the screen, there's a thin green line that shows pretty much at any given point, when the screen is turned on. Here's the picture of it:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
There are some known issues with white pixels being displayed as green (due to the PenTile matrix?) at the edges of the screen. For me, most notably, while using the FBreader app.
But this is not the case here - It shows itself at all times, even on the 'Google' splash screen during boot.
While displaying full screen content, like YouTube clips, in place of the green line, there is a line of pixels showing the content, but with very high contrast and warped colors.
Overall, the screen has no other issues.
If anyone has experience with it, is there a way to fix it, outside of warranty return?
Additional info:
It is the GSM version of GNex. I run AOKP build 5 currently with their default CPU/GPU settings. As far as I can recall, the issue started a month or two after the purchase. It seemed to come and go, and now is permanent.
Thanks for any help, ironhalik.
Update: After flashing stock image, jzo54k from Google, the issue is still there.
Yeah, that's a hardware problem if it shows up whenever the screen is on.
Seems pretty hardware related, Idk about you but I love messing with the software of a phone, but I rather just use warranty for hardware stuff..
Gud luck

I had it too, sended it to Samsung, they replaced the screen under warranty. Took 8 days. Received a much better screen, white was much better with low brightness. Very satisfied with the service.

Hey all,
I'm liking my Note 7 fine, but I'm not LOVING it, and it comes down to one thing for me: the screen just isn't as vibrant as past phones (Note 5 and S7). It seems that Samsung has dulled it a bit, the colors don't "pop" in that over-saturated way they used to. Playing with the screen modes it seems the Adaptive mode is the most vibrant but even there it's noticeably duller to my eyes. It's by no means a deal-breaker, but it's my one "complaint" at the moment.
Interestingly, activating the video enhancer works wonders - when watching a video! Which is nice... but I want that thing on ALL THE TIME! I actually mentioned this to a Samsung rep in the store the other day and his answer was "well, nobody's complaining about it". Well, nobody BUT ME I guess. And I totally get that some people never liked how artificial the colors used to look on Samsung devices, and it's why the screen modes were always a great thing. I could turn on the mode that made the colors pop while others could leave it off. I just wish I could do that with this phone, but I can't.
I know there's no setting for activating that video enhancer across the board but I'm just throwing it out here in case there's a hack or app or something I'm not aware of... and if not, maybe get some enterprising dev thinking about it For me, it's taking a nearly flawless device and bringing it down just a hair. Not drastically, but a little.
