Hi everyone.
Firstly, i apologize if i m in the wrong place to post that but it s very difficult for me to use the new xda app. This app is not so organized than the old one.
My question is : is exist a non rooted app to change the splitscreen line color between two apps somewhere.
More precisions :
I owned a galaxy note 8 in the past which had an issue after 1 yeay of use on his display. I ve used the splitscreen feature to watch a vlc movie while on the other hand, i ve browsed in the samsung internet or checked my mail or played a game.
After a year of use i had a burned display. And the ghost issue was located exactly where was the split screen line separating the two apps. Samsung warranty was aware and changed me the screen of the phone.
Today i own a galaxy note 10 and i used the samsung multistar app. I was able to change the splitscreen color line from blue to black or dark (i don t remember). Multistar received an update that don t allow to change the color anymore.
That s why i ask if someone is aware about a third app that can give the opportunity to change this color line because i don t want to reproduce the same issue on my galaxy note 10.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if this is the right forum but I am almost sure it is...
Anyway... I notice that certain gradients on my galaxy nexus have really visible bands in them like they are 16 bit color (these gradients being the backgrounds in settings, music, phone, people). I can see them on my galaxy tab (10.1, running cm9 kang) but that doesn't bother me because the display isn't as bright so I have to look really closely and its not really as much of a problem as it is on my galaxy nexus. I originally thought my gnex's display was defective but now I realize it is just the ics ui in general as it can display gradients in the browser and gallery fine. I have cm9 on my gnex as well, and it has a dithering option but this doesn't seem to affect the gradients in question.
I also notice small 1 pixel bands running across the display (most visible when on a black background like the app drawer) when the task switcher is open.
I put screenshots on my flikr (and increased the brightness of them as its hard to see on a lcd display) here: w w w . flickr . c o m /photos/[email protected]/ (if anybody can suggest a better place than flikr feel free to tell me, and sorry for violating the no links for noobs rule, you will have to take out some of the spaces in that url ).
Any ideas on how to fix this? I can't find anything about it anywhere?

I have checked that thread before posting this and my device doesn't look anything like those in the pictures that are 'not okay'. I was originally certain I would have to return the device until I noticed the banding in screen shots when looking through them on my computer... You may be right though, so I'll compare with some other gnex's next time I have time to go to an o2 store, but I strugle to see how something visible in screen shots can be a issue with the display...
I bought my phone from an online store in Romania on February 22.I have warranty and other things, it was brand new. I kept the screen on full brightness, and Dynamic color mode. That's how I like it. I was aware of burn in so I switched colors with a display tester every 3 days or so. Yesterday I noticed that the spot where status bar is used to be in portrait mode is brighter than the rest of the screen when displaying blue, white and grey colors. Brighter not Darker. I searched on Google images and that doesn't look like burn in. It wasn't here until yesterday when I spotted it. It's barely visible with display tester but in Games videos photos and multi colored things it can't be finded, You need to look with max attention. I used Nova launcher to hide the status bar. I also heard that there are 2 different things, image retention which is fixable and permanent burn in. I searched for something like this but I don't seemed to find something good. I don't know what it is,I never browsed the Web without changing the pixels where the status bar is for more than 20 minutes. I heard burn in occurs in extreme cases. I don't know how this happened so that's why I'm asking you guys. I don't know even what to do it bothers me only in display tester, but otherwise the screen is perfect. Please give me an advice because I don't want to have a faulty screen.. Can it even be repaired under warranty for that?
No one knows what's the problem?
Maybe you could post a photo ?
Look at the top of the screen...That's actually what I'm seeing when looking on a blue test background.This kind of discoloration/brightness where the notification bar usually is when in portrait mode.This is not a screenshot or photo ,it's just a blue image that i modified to show about i'm talking about.It also happens on grey and white and cyan .I couldn't take a photo because i have a crap 7 MP shooter ,and one crapper 2 MP shooter on my old Galaxy Y.I tried them both but noone of them can catch thatstrange discoloration/burn-in/brightness
Xda don't let me to post links..That's the link without the X'es so delete X from this link to go to the image hXttp://i4XX4.tinypic.coXXm/2w4g39j.jpgX
I really don't know what this can be.
I have the same problem! I noticed it a few weeks ago. The bar on top, when in full screen mode, is slightly brighter/lighter compared to the rest of the screen. I can see it the most when using the browser. The screen looks slightly more yellow compared to the grayer (or something like that) bar. Remember the bar is not actually there, just the discoloration in its place. I have no idea what is causing this and I'm hoping it's not hardware related.
It ain't hardware if it shows up in a screenshot. Looks like the exact dimensions of the status bar, almost as if it's compositing it or it's shadow placeholder where it expects it to be. Try a different ROM, or install the Simplistic Framework and try changing the status bar's colour and transparency setting, see if it makes any difference.

I wrote that.It doesn't show up in screenshots.I edited a blue picture to look exactly like my phone screen.The problem I think it's the screen itself.And the reason for why I edited a picture is that as I said my shooters can't spot it.Any ideas?Also I use the stock ROM ,un-rooted..Everything stock ,including the notification bar.I just have a custom launcher wallpaper and widgets...
It shows up when you turn the phone in landscape mode as well. It remains on the side as a vertical discoloration where the notification bar resides when in portrait mode. I'm not pleased to say the least.

Exactly what's happening to me.
Made in china phones r crap..made in korea by samsung is gud quality
If you have the warranty the warranty, why not use it? Since the problem is from the phone itself.
This is same like what happen to OG note..i thought sammy already solve the problem when they using RGB instead of pentile on our note 2.. this is not good...
I check mine, so far nothing yet. But i afraid now!!

I always set brignest to auto and screen movie mode. So maybe it did save mine from that problem

My phone was on Dynamic and Full Brightness all the time.I love oversaturated and bright screens.LOVE AMOLED <3
Well I found a solution to the problem. It takes time to pull off and is still a work in progress for me but it's working.
I created an image that matched the resolution of the phone screen. I then made a rectangle at the top of this image that presents the exact size of the status bar and colored it white. The rest of the image was colored black.
I installed an app that keeps the screen on without dimming when plugged into the charger. Overnight I display the image I created with the screen set to stay awake and don't dim at full brightness. So what you see is a black screen with a full brightness white strip where the status bar is supposed to be.
This process quickly "ages" the status bar area and it slowly starts to match the rest of the screen. I've been doing it for almost a week and the difference between the two sections of the screen is starting to diminish. I bet a couple more weeks of this and the difference between the two sections will be gone.
I got the problem as well. And I'm telling as many people as I can because I'm annoying like that. Seriously, I hate the fact that I spent such money on faulty phone...Samsung galaxy note 2. <blech>
Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.
Greetings,
I just purchased my Samsung Galaxy Nexus but I noticed after some months of use, some strange blue lines that appears only on blue, grey or specially light colors as white backgrounds. I am very upset since I bought this good cellphone but noticed the screen issue. People told me that those blue lines where just a software problem but the thing is that I recently upgraded from 4.2 JellyBean to 4.4 KitKat and those annoying lines still appear on specific backgrounds. I forgot to mention that those blue lines appear in full-screen mode where the notification and the digital buttons bar are when they hide while in that mode, for example: when playing games, visualizing text or images, watching videos on Youtube (all of it in full-screen mode). You got the idea, right? Its like when the full-screen mode is on and the functional bars of the Nexus fade, it is supposed to be the same color as the whole background, but not; it appears like a tone of blue instead. This has nothing to do with the camera by the way.
I now think that the issue is related to some problem with the screen and hardware. I don't really want to replace the whole screen with a new one since Nexus screens are very expensive. I can't claim a warranty as well.
So, the questions are:
¿Does anybody have or have had the exact or similar issue as me?
¿Can someone please explain me what's going on and give me a solution?
I will leave few images bellow where the blue line is more visible:
1st Picture: When Youtube is loading the video, the notification and digital-button bar are gonna fade to play the video in full-screen mode.
2nd Picture: While the video is playing in full-screen mode, on the edge of the screen where previously was the notification bar, the blue line appeared, you can see it easily.
3rd picture: While reading any type of text or viewing a picture in full-screen mode where the notification and digital-buttons bar fade, the blue line appears again and its very easy to see it.
4th Image: This case is different, on a background with dark blue and black colors, there is some blue tint effect that is slightly notorious, the picture taken from the camera doesn't show it very well.

Yeah dude, it really sucks and its kinda annoying when watching videos or reading something. Google should make something about it on future cellphones!
If you fix it or at least reduce the blue shadow a little please notice me, I am very upset about it. :crying:
My „blue lines” appeared after I dropped the phone
Seems like standard Galaxy Nexus AMOLED burn-in. Try something like this but dont expect too much.
Screen burn in. I have it too. There's no fixing it on an AMOLED display without replacing the screen. This is my first and last device I will buy with AMOLED.
Day 2 with my stock (for now) S8.4.
The first thing I did was to download the Google Now launcher, and I was struck by how odd it looks. The Google Search bar is very narrow, and the cards on the Now screen are small and centered on the page, rather than being edge-to-edge as they are on my phone and my old Nexus 7 tablet. Then I started noticing in a number of other apps that fonts are very small, or that there are large amounts of wasted white space.
I can only guess that this is due to the screen resolution, and I understand older apps designed for phones don't scale up properly. But c'mon Google -- really? It's not like you don't have a couple of larger tablets out there already.
Not ready to root this tablet yet; I'm going to sit back and wait for Lollipop to come along and bring a host of new headaches and issues... But the question is am I the only one using the Now launcher (love the left swipe to Google Now!) that realizes it -- and other apps -- look funny? And is there any non-root solution that may help increase the DPI?
Yes, Samsung has messed up DPI. Their apps don't work with it, therefore they put wrong DPI. Solution: root, xposed module, set DPI for each App individually. See several threads regarding DPI.
Yup, I was afraid that was the only answer. Sigh... Really takes the shine off my shiny new toy!
So I have been working on review videos and tutorials. I just noticed that the Note 5 Camera feature doesn't have Greyscale as an effect style. Is this just an ATT version issue or do all Note 5 lack this feature? I did check the Samsung camera market place to see if there was an add on . Samsung tends to remove features and place them there.
Let me know what you guys see.
Only thing close is effects "monogram".
Have you tried using the Pro Settings to see if the grey scale is there? Personally not sure what the grey scale is, if your talking about the black/white thing with +/- on it, than that is in Pro Settings.
Monogram is the grayscale washed out a bit with a different name. Hint the name mono and gram.
