Anyone else have a pinkish/gray tint on some areas of the screen when the brightness is low? It is easier to see on a gray image. The best way to see it is to use the app called "lcd test (amoled ready)"

Anyone else have issue with a little white light shines through on black image?
Like it's not properly sealed between the back light and lcd..

That's called backlight bleed. It's all over this forum.
Didn't know it was a widespread fault with the phone.
Thanks!

I don't know if my nexus is the only one that has this but my led is more noticeable on the bottom? You can see the circle and the dot in the middle which is the led

I was trying to find mine with direct light and I couldn't really see it. The only time I've actually noticed it was today in direct sunlight and the right angle.
can't see mine right now
I'll try later with sun light and correct angle
never noticed!
yes its normal dont worry

You either have the reddish black (only visible in near darkness) or the smear problem. I got mine swapped, and now I'm stuck with the smearing problem.......
My firmware is xuamdf

You can fix the smearing problem temporally

I noticed that I not only get the weird pinkish tint with black backgrounds, but also yhat my S4 doesnt display blacks in videos properly. It looks really strange and blocky. Anyone else noticed this?

Strange... why is this?

I have the same problem too, its really annoying while watching movies or youtube.
Can any body confirm that too?
I'm thinking about replacing the handset.
I dont think the handset is issues, but rather the software. Do you also have the pink tint on black?

I think this isnt the same as the smearing problem

I still have this issue. I noticed this on youtube as well and its quite irritating. What to do? Im sure my display isnt defect because everything else is fine. Im wondering if it has to do with the pink tint bug.

If you mean pixelated blocks in the dark areas of video you can alleviate it somewhat by experimenting with colour modes and brightness settings combinations. Overall it is because your screen is too good and reveals the compression video artefacts present in video files more than an LCD does. It's not your phone, it's the file you are watching.

I don't notice this on my computer monitor even though it's the same res..
It's not just blocky.. it shows black pitch black (if things are supposed to be black) around the rest of the video so it looks really weird.
Did the 4.2.2 update change the color temperature? My display produced a more neutral tone before the update but now the whites appears warmer and has a yellow tint to it.
It didn't change mine. Mine is cool, and has always been cool.
Now that I think about it and using the xda app it's wormer white.
