Anyone else have this issue? When in bright sunlight it looks as if the screen has a cloudy yellow/orange tint to it kind of like a botched polarization application, it is really hard to see in sunlight.
I do have a glass protector on it but i removed it and after a vigorous cleaning the orange was still there, is this a glue issue like the OPO had?

Well I guess i'm alone with this issue. Right, sending it back then.
I checked yesterday and don't have this issue. I forgot to report back for you.
before I send it back i wanted to take one last good picture in case anyone else has this issue, I just got my replacement and it is not like this so if yours is, send it BACK!
This has been cleaned very well with a alcohol pad and its smooth so it is under the glass.
I do not have this not even a little bit, your unit is messed up
Edit: didn't realize you have the replacement, tbats good!
Yeah that's really bad and nasty looking. You got your replacement quick as hell.
Major defect.

Looks like a faded picture of a volcanic eruption. That's purty Maw. :silly:

Earlier when I turned my G1 over, I found multiple lines on the back of the battery cover, I have no idea what they are but they obviously don't look very good. The phone has always been kept in a case and only today have I noticed them. I have a white G1 so the cover is a light bronze color. The lines resemble lines made by a pen very lightly. However, after applying alcohol (hand sanitizer), water, soap and intense rubbing it will not come off. Has anyone ever scratched their cover? What does it look like? I know this is a very... strange question to ask haha.

Yeah it is. I mean, really...it's probably a scratch.

suppose we can't really tell unless you get us some pics
my guess is, it's either a scratch or a crack.
I cant take any pics... they don't show up very well in the picture. But ah well, my Shield Skin comes in a few days, and new themes will be released in like a week from the competition to make me feel better. In the end I will probably end up just buying another battery case for 10 bucks off eBay. Must be my OCD haha.
Hi,
Today, I have no idea what happened but my display has gone funny. All the colours have faded and look washed, I tried tinkering with Automatic brightness but that hasn't helped.
The blacks have gone grey. Here are some screenshots to show what I am talking about.

The contrast ratio seems to have messed up. Please if someone could be kind and help me fix it, I'd much appreciate it.
Thank you!
This happened to me too when I applied a screen protector. Some of the liquids probably got into the phone. My screen even disappeared for a day. After the water evaporated it went back to normal.

I see nothing on those screenshots. It could be your hardware in that case.
It happened to me for a couple of days before while i was trying some custom roms, not sure why but it just went back to normal after all.

It sorted itself out. Back to Normal again
So I'm currently talking with Google and waiting on an email back to see their response...On any grey or dark surface, I have a white banding on either side of the screen that runs the height of it. I also experience some burn in with my calendar widget (due to the white boxes on it). You can see them in the one photo. It almost looks as they've burned in through the settings menu.
Has anyone else experienced the same issue?
I thought it might be normal at first but I compared it to my wife's N4 and her display is flawless!
White banding:

Not normal. It is defective. Google should take care of it no problem and send a replacement.

I get it with the tapatalk app avatar boxes and the keyboard if I leave the screen on for a while. But it always clears its self up before I notice it to much more.
I've had my Nexus since February and its done it since day 1.

So it finally happened, i've only had the device for 2 weeks and this morning I watched it plummet towards the pavement..
Fortunately, the phone has very minor cosmetic damage. Just a few scuffs around the metal band but for the past few hours the screen has been acting weird. All of the "black" on the screen seems to have grey vertical lines in random places, i've ran some colour testing apps and every other colour is perfect, all but black.
What do I do? Is there a ribbon loose inside of it or does it look like I need to replace the whole screen?
EDIT: Looks to be the same sort of situation as this:

Unfortuanly I don't gave a way of taking a picture, it looks like some of the colour is just leaking vertically. But yet everything on the screen still seems pretty good, which leads me to think I might not need to replace the whole screen?
I've had the phone for 24 hours now, and I've already noticed a lot of tiny scratches at the top of the display (by the camera/2nd screen). Several of these scratches go right across the camera, and they all seem to be going vertically up and down the glass right at the curve point. I truly haven't set this phone down screen side down, and the only thing I can think of is it getting scratched going in and out of my jeans. I keep it in my right front pocket all by itself. I'm super disappointed in the glass so far. Anyone else have this issue?
Edit: Photo's.

Mine did as well, I removed it first thing because it had 4 small bubbles in the middle of the display. I just figured it was for transport like every other phone comes with. I'll post photos in my original post.
