Amoled burn-in issues - Vibrant General

Every used vibrant has some. The best way to check it is to dial *#0*# in froyo or older and press blue for all blue screen. This color fades the soonest.

should probably rename title to say how to fix amoled burn in issues..
ive personally never had it so i cant test this.

I don't see anything, looks fine to me.

There is no way to fix it. Usually it takes place at very top where tasks bar is.

Does me no good, Voodoo works only at 100% brightness...
Mine is like that too. Slight blueish tint compared to my wife's Evo.
I saw a thread about this about a month ago or so... from the sounds of it not all epics were like this. I never noticed it on mine but again, a lot of others have.

Before the Epic came out, I looked at the Tmobile Galaxy S phone and was mortified at the bluish tint of its screen. A portion of a web page which was supposed to appear white would appear very very pale baby blue. It was definitely noticeable. If you are experiencing that on your Epic. . . . sorry. My Epic does not have that problem.

What do I do??

Long story short....Im in love with this phone.
But my first one had vertical lines that ran down the screen and I thought it was just the color scheme but I found out that it is Screen Burn in =(
I returened it and my second has screen burn in too!!
What's with Samsung giving this phone recycled or defected amoled screens
Should I return it and rebuy it in a month or send it into Samsung??
If there are alternatives please share .......

Have any pics, so we have an idea what you're talking about?
Damn it sucks but I don't have a camera buttttt if you pull your notification bar down look at the grey area.....you should see some sort of grid lines that are light
Mine has that but also there are a couple of dark lines that can be seen on everything including pictures.....

Screen just washed out on epic-help?

Hey guys. I don't know what just happened to my phone, but the screen color just washed out. Everything is in a strange yellow hue and there is a permanent black line on the bottom of the screen above where the launcher sits, even if I'm not on my home screen. Is my epic busted?

most likely you are having a hardware problem. Warranty claim might be in order unless you have TEP.
Yeah bro just take it into sprint. It shouldnt cost u anything as it sounds like a hardware defect. Good luck man.

Mother of GOD ! there are other icon imprints as well if I look closely !!
Hope it doesn't get darker than this ...
You won't find away around it unfortunately.
These screens are both fantastic and both sh*t at the same time. It's good technology but it isn't perfected. My original SGS went terrible. After nearly 2 years on it I could see perfectly the alarm icon and almost every icon I had on my home screen on light and dark backgrounds - It's a nice screen but it will only get worse within time.
As others have said only real solution is to keep altering your backgrounds and home screens but tbh I wouldn't bother, you'll still get burn from the time and other icons in the status bar.
Until Samsung sort them out and improve how they work it's just the way it's going to be
Whoa!! That is scary!
I have heard that there is no solution for a burn-in..? Thanks for the advice though. I'll keep changing the layout constantly.

Display of black weird

Anybody an idea whether this is a display damage? Black appears not normal.

Black crush
Well,this is called 'black crush' or 'black clipping'. It is still there a little bit,but nothing serious. The first Note was horrible... Don't worry,nothing is wrong with the phone,it is a software issue,and (I think) it will be fixed soon.
Im very confused as it really distorts the display of the black.
In the settings the search field has a deep Black. Rest is more or less grey.
In the toggle menu the bottom bar has weird stripes.
It's not just a small issue. ...

You posted screen shots. No one can tell anything from those you need to take a picture of the problem using a camera. The phone's been out for over a month now. If what's happening to you were wide spread I assure you it would have been brought up (numerous times) by now. If whatever you're seeing was like that out of the box (before you loaded any apps) it's probably a h/w problem with your specific device.
I have the same issue too on my Note 3!
I'm from Singapore here.
I didn't notice that the pictures appear perfectly normal on other displays.
I did some shots with a camera.

That isn't normal - I'd you are running a custom ROM I'd take back to stock to see if the issue persists, and send it back if it does.

Mine too. Isn't that supposed to be the way the display looks? Just kidding.
A display that looks like this isn't normal and if there were a lot of them people would be going nuts.
It's either something s/w related that's fried the graphics drivers or a h/w problem unique to specific phones. If it remains after a hard reset than it's h/w and the phone needs to be exchanged.
Tried the hardware reset but didn't change anything. Bad luck this time.....

That is really something wrong.
It suppose no strip at telco area.
Beside search bar, the rest bottom part is suppose black also not grey.
I believe your screen is defective.
I've factory-rested and it's the same.
Re-installing exactly the same J1 firmware (in Singapore it's the latest) via Odin also yeilds same result.
Another friend of mine is facing the same issue.
However, the ambience at the Samsung stores are so bright, and it's hard for the customer service officers to see
Well I'll see what Samsung After service Germany will say... the point is that the screen looks ok if you test the blue, green, red and black screen test under *#0*#. But during normal use I'm faced with the problems as shown above
I'll keep you updated.
