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.

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 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.
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:

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 recently noticed a thick but light band running vertically through the center of my screen
Is this normal for this phone? It's only visible on dark gray backgrounds and its still so light you can hardly see it, but it is noticeably there.
I don't want to rma for a refurb and I can live with it but I don't want this to be the sort of issue that gets worse with time.
Sometimes I see it less, sometimes more, it's most noticable on dark backgrounds, BlackPlayer for example. It looks like colors are washed out but not the whole screen just around the edges of left, right and upper corner. I tried taking a picture of it but it doesn't show so I had to draw it to give a clue on how it looks like. It's pretty accurate. Could the screen be failing or is it an issue with connectors or something?
