I was wondering if it is common to have a little color bleed by an edge of the screen on the nook color. On a completely black screen, I have a little bit of a green color shadow to the left of the nook bottom. Is my nook defective?
I think I know what you're describing... I get a little bit of that on the bottom of my nook when it's showing a black screen. Someone else will probably chime in, but I assumed it was "normal".
Yep, a faint greenish glow just above the n button. Hadn't noticed till now. Only barely visible with a black bacground and a dark room.
K, mine is a little more noticeable but not a big problem. Looks like it seems to be a common trait for the nook. Thanks for easing my mind.

Are someone has same issue? and how to fix it? thank you very much.

The best I could to to check mine was to open up my email. The whole screen is white. I did not see anything except white along the edge.

thank you very much.
please try in LCD Test(*#0*# in Diagnostic Mode) select RED you will see a white border but on my device left-border is green (other sides are OK).
It's very hard to be absolutely sure on red, but on blue and green the edges are definitely all white.

I loaded your JPG onto my Focus and the left side is green. The left side is always green, but the right side and even the top and bottom can also appear green if you hold the phone at certain angles. The green can also appear purple at extreme angles.
Is this a manufacturing flaw, or just a characteristic of AMOLED screens? Could it be some sort of back-lighting source that's located along the left edge that's causing the green tint?
I loaded the picture after downloading it and then attaching it to an email.
It does have a strange tint on the left side.
I then created my own version of the image. I started with a 480 x 800 blank image in Photoshop. I filled the entire image with black at 100% opaque.
Then I stroked the outer edge with 1 pixel of white. I repeated this using 2 pixels and then 3 pixels. As you can see, it is still visible at 3 pixels, but it is starting to turn white. I think we are seeing a consistent result that means the AMOLED screens have a slight design problem that is not considered to be worth holding back this technology from the market. I know I like the display and this is minor.
i have this problem(maybe common in amoled devices) if i take gray pitchure and put it on background there is distorsion in grey. like brighter and darker stripes(but you need to look it realy good) for exsample download program screen helper lite and tell me do you see stripes on main gray program screen.
There is a thread going for so long,

I think that he meant this:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1121840&highlight=banding
I dont think he is refering to both yellowish screens or banding.
I'm having this issue too. It doesnt show itself unless the screen brightness is turned down, and especially an grey background. There will be faint large vertical stripes. It is as if the backlighting is uneven. Increase the brightness and it'll go away.
Seeing that i do not have the yellowish screen problem, no stuck/dead pixels and no bluish tint problem, im very reluctant to send this phone back for a replacement due to this problem. Its something that i can live with.
So I've noticed a very slight, but annoying issue on my Fire. When I'm reading with a black background and white text, I find the whites on the left side of the screen is bright white, then gradually fades to a duller white towards the right side. I flipped the screen to make sure I wasn't crazy, and then the whites were on the right side.
Is this a manufacturing defect, or an issue they all have? Granted, it's subtle, but still is starting to distract me when I'm reading at night and don't want the bright white background.
As an alternative, is there a way to adjust colors in the native reading app (besides the three preset)? I've sideloaded Aldiko, but the right sides of text cut off.
hello everyone
I have an issue with my i9500 screen.
I installed Display Tester app from Play Store. I run the Defective Pixel Detection test.
In red, green, and blue color, it doesn't have any problem (or it's just my eyes). But, in white color and grey, there's kind of darkish red tint with gradation in upper side of screen. So basically the screen appear brighter in the bottom but darker in upper side. I've tried turning off auto and maximize the brightness, but the problem is still there.
It's very noticeable too in Viewing Angle test.
So anyone have this issue? and (perhaps) the fix?
mine is running on latest OTA update (XUAMDK baseband and XXUAME1 build number)

I've had 2 devices with this issue, I'm pretty sure is a hardware problem so I don't think an update will fix it. You should go for a replacement.
I have the same problem but in the left side of the screen it has yellow tint while in the right side it has pink. I took it to samsung customer service today, they told me we will call you once we take a good look at it.
Same issue with mine
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341740
mine is darker with a pinkish tint on the top half.
It is a hardware problem. Hopefully my replacement phone does not have the problem.
Hey guys. Its been a while now i'm using this phone. I gotta admit i give a hard time on the phone's battery (charging cycle that is, i dnt let it fully charge and all). But I can't avoid that.
Anyways. I have this issue:
When a GRAY background is displayed on the phone, (like on a white webpage, when the keyboard is opened) i notice these VERTICAL BANDINGS/GRADIENTS on the screen
They appear on the left and the right sides (1 cm or so from the end of the display).
I also notice the horizontal banding/gradient half a centimeter below the status bar but its REALLLLYYY subtle.
My prediction?
Remember i said i give my battery a hard time? Well to be its the battery pushing the display from the back (probably swelled the poor guy lol) and giving this.
Why do i think this?
Well because
The banding lies EXACTLY where the left and right edges of the battery might probably be
IMPORTANT ASWELL: When i put a pressure on the display, the glass PUSHES the display (and creates those lovely watery ripples) ON THE SAME EDGES WHERE THE BANDING EXISTS.
Extra info: It might be a backlit problem, since its not present at any brightness level on any colour. Red blue green orange pink black purple, even gray(the banding is where the backlit dims)
So yeah thanks for reading it im sure u'll do something abt this.
I cant seem to take it in any camera these defect (i have no DSLR lulz). :3
Buy a new battery and change it before it explodes.
