Hi everyone, just a quick question. When my screen is set to +3 brightness or so I can see that in some menus (for example settings) the colour at the top of the screen is darker than on the bottom!! Please note, you can only see this when the screen is very bright. The more you are looking down on the screen the brighter it gets. When I look at Internet and the backcolour is white it also is darker at the top than on the bottom of the screen.
Is this normal or do I have a defective screen?

Just curious, when you switch to the light theme.
Do any of you have a really thin green line on the left hand side?
It only shows when displaying white on my handset. Curious if this is just SAMOLED, or my phone?
If you're talking about the very far left of the screen, I seem to have a faint green line there too when the white theme is enabled.
I seem to have an issue with my screen if I change to a dark background and then enter the accent colour selector the background there is a grey screen. Whenever my phone is showing a grey screen I see a dark ring on the right hand side towards the top of the screen. It looks like my screen has ringworm. It only happens on grey screens though.
I've got the green line if i put on the white theme.. quite noticeable actually!
lucky i use the dark theme
but the green line is there whenever that portion of the screen is white.
Not sure about the grey screens (don't have grey)

The background of the "accent colour" menu is grey, there isn't actually a grey option.

It's a "feature" of SAMOLED screens, due to the subpixel counts the left border has a green line and the right border has a faint blue one, or at least it does on the Galaxy S.
I just recently got my Note 3 last week through At&t and I'm highly satisfied. I have a question that I have not found the answer to yet. The phone, contacts, and message screens are predominantly white with black font. I kind of have a hard time with this due to my bad eyes. I can see better with a black background with white font. Is there a way to change these screens to black? I have watched some YouTube videos and see people with black backgrounds And White font in these screens. Help please.

i have a n9005 branded voda phone.
its overall colour re dailer, messages ,contacts is standard a darkish blue /black with white letters.
so it seems it a carrier thing .?( your colour white with black font or did you by accident enable a wrong settings ?)
one thing, have you tried to go.....settings /device/accessibility then scroll down to negative colours (reverse the colour of screen )
if i tick it my dark screen will be reversed to white etc..etc untick and i have darkscreen with white lettering
there is also other very good settings on that page eg..font size ...short cut
see screenshot ..have you tried this ?
good luck .
I've noticed some faint diagonal stripes on my LG G2 (LG-D802). They make a pixel like pattern of stripes, only they are diagonal from upper left to lower right and mostly visible on solid clear colors like red, green or blue. The stripes are very thin and the width of the stripes is comparable/or slightly smaller then the pixel width of my old Samsung Galaxy S2 (>200PPI). In other words, it's not something I see all of the time but it gets noticeable when you look closely. And as I said it is mostly visible on solid colors, and not on text and other edges where pixels normally is visible (not that I think this is the actual pixels I see). One of the easiest ways to see it is to search after "red" on google images and open a red image, but it is also visible in most apps or on the homescreen.
Is this something anyone else has experienced/noticed, or is it it my display that is faulty?
I'm not allowed to post an outside link in my message (new user), but here is a picture if anybody want's to see.
It was not easy to capture this on camera, but the stripes are barely visible in the red of the Google+ icon and in the dark blue of the image icon. For size comparison; I use Nova Launcher with icon size 70% and the Minimal UI icon pack.

Could it be a problem with your screen protector? If not i recommend sending it in for a check..
Thanks for the reply.
I don't have any screen protector on, but the lines does seem to be fixed to the screen. I.e. if I move an object the lines does not stick to the object but "new" lines gets visible, so it can look like it can be something with the glass.
If nobody else has experienced the lines I will definitively send the phone in for service.
I tried the local phone store, but the guy only laughed at me because he did'nt see it. Great service attitude when you make the customers feel stupid
Maybe you are talking about the touch sensors?
All the phones have it and it's more visible on xperia phones.
Maybe, but I think the lines/pattern is to small and dense to be the normal grid that people see. When I turn the screen off I can (barely) see the the digitzer grid, but it is a completely different pattern (horizontal and vertical lines) and the lines are separated by several line widths (some millimeters maybe?). The diagonal lines I see are very close together. It looks like they are only a line width apart from each other.
One other thing I just noticed is that the lines does not rotate when the screen is in landscape mode. They still go from the front-camera corner down to the corner to the right of the LG logo.
Is it nobody with a good sight that can confirm if they see the stripes or not? Would have helped me a lot when proceeding with getting the phone in for service.
Hi! I have a 9506 variant, with a screen with slight color difference across the screen from top (cooler gray) to bottom (warmer gray).
I know, there are many such cases on samsung's amoled screens, and I also found that Cyanogen has a screen calibration, which can change the temperature for the whole screen. But is there a solution to fix not the whole screen, but partially, according to each screen's characteristics (user adjustable)?
You're probably looking for a screen filter app with adjustable overlay.
Though I don't think there are many apps with such a feature, as there aren't many requests for partial screen overlays.
Try CF.lumen. It was designed to adjust color temperature on the fly.
Greetings all,
I have a S7, and when I have a open white area, lets just go with messages, When I open up the message (text, stock) and compose a new message, I get the white screen however in the background I can see the home screen icon's very faint, with colors. I did a screen shot and when on the phone you can see the icon's, however when I move the screen shot to the PC I dont see any of the icon's, I was hoping to post the pic, but the pic is perfect. I dont know how to explain this, but it weird. I have done two factory wipe's, this is stock, I have not modified this phone. The carrier, (If needed) is T-Mobile. Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.
Ciao~

If you take a screenshot and it does not display the same as what you are seeing it means it is NOT software related unfortunately this is screen burn
thats what I figured, but its very bad, I have never had any of Samsung Phones every do this. If the display is burned, why would the icon's have color? I see only the background icons, when the screen is white. If it was burned should I see it on all the screens?

The screen burn burns in the colors a possible way to test this is change your background icons from what they were previously and see if the colours have changed on the screen where you can see the burn in..
Alternatively Get a screen test app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ua.dp.ustav.screentest should let you put solid colors on the screen) and set it for all white (there shouldn't be any other color showing) then for all black (there shouldn't be anything but black or a uniform very dark gray). If either one shows any sort of picture "ghost", the screen has burn-in.
Apparently it helps slightly if you set the screen mode to cinema. (Settings>Display>Screen Mode>Cinema)
Hope this helps
