Hi everyone just today i noticed what i think is a small backlight bleed. Its at the top of the screen on the edge and you can only see it on fully black baground. I will try and post pics later tonight. Can anyone please check there phone on black screen in a dark room all around the edges especially at the top and let me know if this is normal. What i notice is you have too look carefuly and its better seen from further distance then right in your face. Thats why im wondering if it is light bleed at all.

Edit: Here is an image i drew onto pink Arc for some reason lol (sorry i coudnlt caputre it) but it will give you an idea of what i mean.
Notice the top how it goes a liitle more in that is what i am talking bout.
Anyone not scared to try this? Lol its not a big deal just wondering, but i think all lcds have it to some degree. So if someone is wiling to check i will really apreciate it.

nope don't see any bleeding. but if you check the ipad2 now that's a light leak )
oh yeahh thats not what i am talking about That is huuuge light bleed. The one i see is only on the edge and it kind of trembles it is almost like a white shadowbut only goes a couple milimeters on the screen. Its hard to explain lol i feel like an idiot. I will try to picture it.
Edit: I think my OCD is kicking in for no reason lol its barely there its probably the way it is with any lcd.

I noticed today that on the display there's a really really thin green line on the left side of the screen, its hardly noticeable but on white it more noticeable. Is this how the AMOLED displays are or is there something wrong with my Vibrant? I think I had noticed this on a N1 before when I had that. Is anyone else seeing this as well? Thanks in advance.
mine has that too. didn't notice it til you pointed it out. Very, very thin line on the edge of the screen. probably normal.

i see it too. it's SUPER fine ALL the way to the left. so yea i would assume it's what throws the pixels across the display. i'm sure if we wikipedia AMOLED we'll get answers for the green..
Jesus I hate you for pointing this out, never noticed until now.

I see it too. It looks like the left edge of the screen isn't as cleanly truncated as the rest of the edges and we're seeing green spectrum pixels shining against the dark interior of the phone.
I seen No Green Line ,,, sorry kats ,,
I can really only see it when the screen is a light neutral color, other than that I never really noticed it.

Sorry guys for pointing it out. Someone else pointed it out to me too. Oh well, I guess its normal since I am not the only one seeing it. It's fine, like I said its not even noticeable at all but I am lovin' the Vibrant so far..

go a to completely white screen you'll see it, i didn't want to believe it either
Yep. It's hard to spot, but it's there. Not a deal-breaker, but definitely annoying to see.

Annoying? It is hardly noticeable.
I only noticed because it was pointed out and I had to go to a totally white screen to see it.
This is pretty much a non-issue. A moderator should close this thread. lol.
Please help! I just bought the Bell galaxy s 2 today and realised that in low brightness settings screen has a pink tint.
Does anyone have this issue? Its more visible in grey colors. When i compare with my galaxy s, galaxy s' whites are true white and galaxy s 2's white are pinkish tint on it. When the brihhtness is at %100 its not that visible but once u set it %0 it becomes pinkish.
Is it what it suppose to be or its defective?
Note: yes i played with background effect but it didnt help. I am running KG2.
Edit: I compared with galaxy s again and if I make the brightness %100 on galaxy s 2 both screens almost identical (although SGS2 still has little warm whites) but at %0 brightness when I pull down the notification screen sgs2 has literally pink hue
Why not anyone comment on this? 100 something views and no comments?
U guys all have sgs2. pls at least share your phone's display colors so I can know if something is wrong with mine.
Yep got it to and also pink on camera also mine going back to Amazon tomorrow had two in a week with same problem Ive got one ordered from another retailer ... but I think its a inherent fault

Are you saying your whole screen looks rather pinkish ? I've seen couple of devices that were pretty much reddish when showing white, but i think that's not normal. You should replace it.

Yes whole screen has a reddish tint. Especially grey colors. Instead of grey it displays reddish. If i compare Gmail app with Sgs side by side, my screen has ridiculously pink color.
I wonder if its a software issue or hardware? Cuz I remember in sgs hardcore's kernel he made an.option to change the colors.
This is my second sgs2. First one had a dead pixel. So I didnt wanna go right away and change it. I wanted to ask yours.
More input will appreciated.
I uploaded a pic SGS and SGS2 side by side displaying Grey Graident Colors. what do you think?
If your phone looks like the one on the right, get it replaced. No rom/firmware will make it look good.

I'd take the lack or response to mean that it's not a problem experienced by many people. If your read the threads talking about the display, you'll see there's wide variations in color temperature. Cool/blue seems to be normal while there are reports of phones leaning toward warm/yellow. Pink hasn't been reported a lot so I'd exchange the phone.

I am also from India and I dont have any such problem with my sgs2...
My girlfriend and I have the same german sgs2 (dbt) and mine has a bit of a greenish tint whereas hers had a but if a reddish tint. You can't notice it when using the phones alone but when you put them side by side you can notice it a little bit, but really not that much. Seems to be an AMOLED thing. Maybe I'll manage to take a photo for you.

Thanks a lot for that image. I have been wondering what people were talking about when they mentioned pinkish screen...
Luckily I don't seem to have that problem. It seems like there are a few defective screens out there.
perhaps supercurio will have a voodoo colour fix with the sgs2 whenever he releases it. It fixed the tinge on the original sgs. Look it up if u are unfamiliar with it
I changed the phone today and got a new one. Its better now and significany less pink color.
Also I discovered something that the pink tint is only visible when u look at the screen 90 degrees. If u tilt the phone a little (5-10 degrees) to left-right or up-down and view like that the color turns normal (like my year old sgs).
It made me realise that this is a screen coating issue (maybe coating causes polarisation). So do u think this will go away with the time of use?
When I turn off the screen and check it under light by tilting I can see a little purple glare.
What do u think?
Hey guys, i just recently got the transformer and i was wiping fingerprints off with a microfibre cloth when I noticed two perfect circles near the center of the screen. The screen was off and they were outlined in black. Anyone knowwhat im talking about? Is thisnormal or a defect? Thanks
I have never seen these circles. Did someone use your tablet as a coaster.
I don't have any on mine. Can you see them while the screen is on? What revision is your hardware?
Lol noone used it as a coaster and i cant see them when the screen is on. How so i check revsion? Thanks

They are eyes, Big Brother is watching... Sounds like a defect, can you take a picture and post it?
i wish I could but all I see in the picture is my own reflection. I'm checking out the tf101 on display at best buy as I'm writing this but it doesn't seem to have them, then again maybe they only appear in direct sunlight. Hmmm
Do you see them after you blink? Have you looked at the sun lately? LOL
Checked ours and don't have this.
I'm exchanging it for another, I've got a few dead pixels and some light bleed as well so I might as well
Hello, I found this spot on my screen last night. I don't think it dirt or fingerprint because I clean it very well but the spot on the screen is still there. Anyone has experience or has seen this before? any help would be appreciated.
Couldn't you have chosen any worse? I can't even see what you're talking about but I see a little glowing area on the darkest picture.
It could be the light bleeding on the non-edge portions of the screen that some peopl said spontaneously developed after using it for a while. But without better pictures I can't tell. Either the problem isn't big enough or your camera isn't able to focus well enough or you took poor pictures. I think you should take them with a darker background bcause really the left most picture is the only one "I think" I see something in.
I do not see anything wrong as well. Are you sure it's not your imagination?
well I had the background all black and hold my tab horizontally across my eyes. Everywhere else on the screen is black except for that spot. When I surf the web or reading something, that spot make everything look brighter compare to the rest of the screen. I can try to make a video for it tonight.
Looks like light bleed. Mine has that too

Hey guys I'm sue most if not all our you know about the black ink marks with the SGS III. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to take the phone back and get a new one but now I'm not sure because I hear that almost all the SGS III handsets have them. How many of you have taken yours back and was it worth it?

You can only see them when it's dark. At first I didn't think it would be a big deal but last night I opened my message app and I could clearly see them.
Edit: has to be a black background.

I have none at all. I used the texting app and andftp.
I didn't have any on mine, though waiting now on my new ordered phone.
Hmm well I'm going to be exchanging mine in a few days.

I noticed a couple on mine, but they really are only noticeable in total darkness on a black background. If they get worse I'll consider getting it replaced, but its such a minor issue, it doesn't seem worth the hassle of a replacement.
The screen is amazing compared to my OG Epic.
They are "normal" for amoled screens. Ive had about 12 razr/razr maxx and everyone had it to a certain extent. They never got worse. As long as you dont have the black line running top to bottom you should be fine.

Try using this background turn off the lights and see if you can spot the splotches.

Here's how to test:
1) Download Display Tester, Go to Colors, then Dead Pixel.
2) Swipe the screen to the black color Page.
3) Go into a dark closet and look for anything weird on the screen.
I'm pretty sure that everyone who posted here will not have a perfect screen.
I have a couple but never notice them unless the screen is super dark...not too worried unless I notice them under normal conditions.
Here's an idea; if you have to test for something under extremely particular circumstances and don't notice it otherwise maybe you shouldn't go looking for a reason to make yourself unhappy.
Just a thought.
If you stand on a chair holding the phone at 37 degree angle while watching a specific Nickelback video and get a weird tint...don't do it?

I downloaded display tester and didn't see anything weird at all on my phone's screen. All the colors were smooth and even with no spotting.

Just Flash It !!!
I noticed a few splotches on day one, but just now after looking at the almost black test image I couldn't see anything at any angle or lighting conditions. Is it possible that this goes away over some time?

If you ever watch a dark movie, you will notice it. It can be irritating to say the least.

I wasn't looking for them. I didn't even know they existed. I actually noticed them one night when I was texting. It sucks that some have them and some don't... I would like to be one of the few that doesn't if you know what I mean
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Yeah, I can definitely understand being irritated if you see it during normal use, it just seems like some people (big thread on this in the international section too) go looking for it. Personally unless if actually seen it during my normal usage I'd never go looking for some flaw that I'd then always know was there.
That was what I was getting at, just to clarify.
