[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Delarock:
Hallo friends, i read lot of about problem with this kind of display( pentile matrix)

I have vertical and horizontal banding too. But this one is something what is bothering me much more.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
That's nothing to do with the Pentile Matrix! Definitely a defective screen, return it to the store and ask for a warranty replacement. The 'banding' is more to do with the AMOLED screen technology rather than the Pentile, as it was present on my SGS2, but is generally only visible under certain conditions (background colour/brightness).

Regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bazzag:
Is it visible on colors other than grey?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Delarock:
Sure, on blue background too,sometimes on white.(poarws photo with blue background) It depends on brightness.

More visible at white background with high brightnes.

More visible at blue and grey background with lower brightnes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zetsumeikuro:
It does have to do with the Amoled technology, but I doubt it's a defective display. You can try to exchange it to see if it really is defective or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DarkVasyaK:
I have some vertical and horizontal banding only with lowest brightness at the white background.

With maximum brightness no lines or whatever
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bazzag:
AMOLED has a few imperfections here and there, so it's not surprising. But if it's bothering you too much exchange it for another one, it could have less prevalent issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TZAR@:
Just performed a test using screen test app my screen looks great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Delarock:
How high is brightness with test screen :)

Mine is fine too but 60 percent and more.But this one issue bother me pernament ( no matter if 30 or 70 percent brightnes)

Tuesday iam going for a new piece, hope that will not be affected worse than mine :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bazzag:
Try viewing those shades of grey on your phones, it's usually the most problematic color. Use a low brightness setting (around 25%) at a dim environment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
This exists on all OLED screens. Its the exact same on my Nexus S. It has nothing to do with pentile matrix, but OLED.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Delarock:
Yes i had nexus one galaxy s galaxy s II so i can compare,nothing like that before that.

50-60 percent of brightnes
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bilhouse:
I have the Galaxy Note and it has the same panel as the Galaxy Nexus albeit at 1280x800 instead of the Nexus's 1280x720. (Super AMOLED HD with Pentile sub-pixel arrangement)

My screen is great. The whites are brighter than they were on the Nexus. The Nexus displayed whites with a yellowish tint especially on low brightness. Plus I can't seen any banding on the screen and I have tested it on White, Red, Blue, Green and Grey backgrounds.

Im getting a new Galaxy Nexus in a couple of days. Since this unit is from a later batch I hope that there is no banding on the screen too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bazzag:
Funny, I have a similar issue to Delarock's on my Galaxy S2, manufacturing date is 19th of October. I'm still thinking whether to replace it or not since since it's only visible on dark'ish grey, I couldn't replicate it on lighter greys, white, or any other color at various brightness settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DarkVasyaK:
the same on lowest brightness...

so I always set up my phone to the hightest brightness :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Hard for me to get a good photo but you can see the same problem on my NEXUS S screen. Its just a characteristic of OLED displays in general.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jjamesv:
Really similar to the screen on my new Galaxy Nexus. I didnt notice the diagonal right away but that is certainly more significant. My screen a rosy hue in the bottom half and especially the lower left.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FierceDeityLink1:
I'd love to see a similar picture of someone who says that their screen doesn't have it.

(Click for 100% crop)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] P M:
So are some of these screens defective? Or is it really just the nature of the beast?

How does one tell what manufacturing date their device was made to? Would I be able to go to a store and exchange for a datecode that shows no banding issues?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YankInDaSouth:
I am having the same issue ... another thing I notice is weird issues with the camera while in a dark room. If I have my camera on in a low light room, I get this weird "dancing" of black blotches in the really dark areas of that room.

I like all solid black wall paper, I find the fastest easiest way to get it is to turn off the camera flash, put my finger over the lense and take a pic. Worked for every other phone I have but the GNex. I get a weird blotchy image ... now I am on GNex#3 (other 2 I returned for different issues) and I have noticed this camera thing on #1 and now #3. With the first one I assumed this was normal ... but after going from the second one to the third I see a HUGE difference in screens. With phone #2 I was able to do the phone/black wallpaper with no weird distortion. Now the really strange thing is that that same pic taken with the second phone (that displyed pure black on that device) shows up blotchy on device 3.

Hope this makes sense to someone lol cuz reading it back I sound crazy.

I just hope the folks at the Verizon store don't give me a hard time trying to get another one!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daleski75:
Mine looks the same on lower brightness but as soon as I put it to around 50% the problem disappears so I think this is a more of a feature with the screen rather than a screen problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YankInDaSouth:
IDK - I am on my third GNex and two of the three have/had this issue whereas the other one did not - so, I can't see it being a "feature" with the screen. I use my phone a lot in low light conditions with the screen brightness turned all the way down, so this "issue" is a rather annoying one for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SrAdama:
I don't have the Nexus but the Galaxy Note and I'm on my third one now. They've all had the same issues you guys are experiencing with your screens. What is causing this issue? Should I return the third phone to the store? Send it to Samsung so that they will fix it? Or should I just accept it as it is because "all" phones with this screen technology has this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Setito:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EYEramid:
B S

My screen seems to be getting worse

Or its just in my head

Its at about 10% brightness

A few vertical lines

Plus a blue tint at top of screen

Think I should exchange it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FierceDeityLink1:
It's funny how people on Reddit are downvoting this like it doesn't exist. Maybe they're just the lucky ones that can't see well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haydonxda:
Manufacturing is clearly not to your standards. The screens and builds will vary and what's acceptable tolerances within manufacturing is obviously not acceptable to many here.

These things are not perfect and some will be better than others. Unless you have a serious problem with the screen you should probably just accept it as is. You may never be lucky enough to get a "good one".

In fact none of the screens are perfect. Think about what they're used for, displaying text, icons, background images, cartoon like games and the occasional photo and video. Ask yourself if it works well for the purpose it was intended because that's what a manufacturer would judge whether it's defective. That's the standard they built it to.

These phones are not sold as part of a color calibrated photo editing suite. You'll find the prices and accessories there are significantly higher priced.

Just saying...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohus:
sorry but I'm not buying it, the idea that we should just be 'okay' with this defect. clearly this is not to be 'feature' but a defect.

Here is what my screen looks. Its definitely annoying to see especially when you see the vertical banding when video/colors go from bright to dark. I can see the vertical banding very clearly.

This is the gray background that I used: http://i.imgur.com/R5XRU.png
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cferra:
mine seems to exhibit some kind of what can only be described as image retention - most noticeably when clicking around on the market - I can see definite shapes of items on the gray loading screen after clicking on a category etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohus:
i'd like to confirm this as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cferra:
seems like its an issue with amoled display technology itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RickROM:
Went to the store today and the demo models looked the same. I can live with it I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rabaker07:
Just tried this at lowest brightness on my amoled Incredible and don't see any of what you folks are talking about. Does this apply to super amoled only?

p.s. I did see that my notification bar has burn-in, but who cares!?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GotSka81:
Number 4

I have been through three so far, still on my third. The first GNex I had had very strong vertical banding. The second GNex had a beautiful screen (no banding and good color calibration) but the earpiece speaker was blown :mad: The third one has horrible discoloration anytime the brightness drops below 50%. All greys (power widget, drop-down menu, settings) are barney-purple. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haydonxda:
I've got a solution for you! Stop right there with phone number 3! I'll even convert your Galaxy Nexus to a non-pentile display for you!

$3,699 - NEC Display Solutions MD213MG Black 21.3" Diagnostic LCD Monitor

$1,495 - Humless Sentinel Portable Lithium Based Generator

< $20 - MHL Adapter

Guarantee you'll be happy with the quality of this display. Whatever your perception of correct color is it'll make you happy. More red? Less pink? You can calibrate it to whatever you like!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codeworkx:
Right. The Galaxy S2 screen is a lot more bad than the GNex. So be happy.

But who cares? Who of you is watching full grey photos? Or playing full grey Games? ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SamsungVibrant:
All sAMOLEDs have this banding. The Original Galaxy S international, Captivate, Vibrant, Fascinate, the Galaxy S 2 phones, Nexus S, and any other sAMOLED phone including the Galaxy Nexus all have it. The non-pentile sAMOLEDs have it also.

The severity varies from handset to handset but they all have it. You can try exchanging it but no guarantee you will get one with less banding, you may get one with more banding.

Honestly you end up getting use to it and forget it's even there. It is clearly a natural phenomenon of how Samsung makes their sAMOLEDs, I just wish they would come out and say what causes it. I have a theory it has to do with some kind of chemical wash residue, but that's just my theory.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamborg:
Is there a way to lower the brightness of the screen, lower than the Low setting? At the Low brightness, its still to high to use in the dark.

Any reg hack or something?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] husam666:
Bump, anyone?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
If you use the adaptive lighting (automatic adjustment), it should be pretty dim in a dark room.

If that's not enough, there are probably regisrty settings that control the brightness at each level, but you'll need to find them and figure out how to modify them.

I suggest starting with the Registry Tweaks thread on the dev & hacking sub-forum. Somebody may have discovered it already. Search is your friend!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] husam666:
I did search, I'll see again, btw, I am using adaptive lightning, and it hurts my eyes. but on manual setting set to low, it's convenient, thx for the reply
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobzero:
wish there was a lower setting as well.

I notice right before the screen auto turns off after 30 seconds, it dims slightly lower than it can be set to via settings.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamborg:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
I thought I'd bricked my NT but it would appear that it is actually alive because it turns up with adb and I can get shell and then issue command su, but what I can't do is replace the old build.prop because file system is not writable. How do I remount it to be writeable from a shell please?

Thanks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hwong96:
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system

Type mount to verify rw, make your changes

mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system

Type mount to verify ro
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Thank you!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Jack_Rover:
I don't have this tablet but a phone with similar problem.

this does not work for me, although I have ROOTED phone MTK6572, android 4.2.2 ;

"/ root" gets RW, but "/system" stays RO.

I get this message:

error

"the item "system" is read only"

I have tried many apps in phone (remount system RW, FX file expl. ....), and mtkdroid-tools and ADB shell in PC.

I have tried many similar version of that command, too, inc. busybox remount. non of those work.

any ideas, what to try next?

what file or thing or item and where I need to change to get this remounting system to RW done?

it is ext4, and remountable.

I have SuperSU in phone but can't update its binaries: /system stays RO, what ever I try...

I can't change audios, anything in /system.

very annoying... :(
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hwong96:
I understand your frustration, however, you should try to post your question to the MTK6572 or Samsung S4 thread. Anyway, since you have asked I'll answer. The mount point for /system is different on each phone model. There is no one standard /system mount point. On the Nook Tablet and Nook Color it is mmcblk0p8. On your device it is different, so the command you tried will not work.

You need to find out what the /system mount point is for your phone.

Open terminal from phone and type su.

Press enter.

At the # prompt type cat /proc/mtd

Press enter.

Look at the output on the screen and see what the mount point is for /system.

A the the # prompt type mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/enteryoursystemmountpointhere /system

Note: replace enteryourmountpointhere with your mount point from the previous step.

Change /system to ro when done. Hope this works for you.

Also download root checker app to ensure you rooted properly.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Jack_Rover:
thanks for your responce.

with that "cat ..." I got : "no such file or dir"...

I know already that my mnt point is (did try already these earlier):

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 system

mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /emmc@android /system

but no success, " system read only" stays, and no change.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hwong96:
Did you use the root checker app to verify for proper root?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Jack_Rover:
yes.

I have many apps (e.g. FX, ATools, TitaniumBup, busybox, ES, mount /system rw, SD maid, root expl., adbd insec., rootAppDel, a.s.o.) that use root rights, and phone's superSU gives the rights to them.

AT:s terminal has # prompt, so it must be root. (?)

adbd insecure's current status = binary: insecure; usb debugging: enabled.

I have earlier version SU's binaries working ok, but updating SU made this binary-update-issue: " binary update failure" and so SU-app won't open (it closes after failing binary update), though otherwise it works ok (and worked earlier until I did let G-play to update it, silly me!).

somehow my /system has been "open" i.e. RW earlier, since busybox and superSU has been installed, but now it is "stuck" to that RO-status. "/" opens, but "/system" not.

MTK Droid Root & Tools v2.5.3 (from here xdadevs) gets root shell ok, but fails when trying to install SU, busybox a.s.o. ("read-only system") - and it "crashes".

maybe kernel related? or boot loader, or .... what?

-----

btw, my apologises, that I wrote this issue to this thread, but I found my "problem" here with the search, and after posting I realized that this is "tablet area..."

so this part can be moved to better place by those who know best where to - though not to trash, anyway.... :o

I can't install your flash p 11 file.

But I was fixed by that :

FOR STOCK ROM

Link Download Apk+lib : https://www.box.com/s/794df956e9b97ca1dcaf

Extract it! Use adb command (don't copy by file manager app):

1. push AdobeFlashPlayer.apk to /data/app (Adobe Flash Player 11 cannot install on LG P350, you must push it by adb command)

2. push 4 files in lib folder to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib (maybe delete existing lib folder in data and make new lib)

3. [Don't need Change permission to use]

Success ! You can play flash on Browsers now !

* To delete existing lib folder and make new lib folder (run these command after push Apk and before push 4 files in lib folder) :

adb shell su -c "mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system"
adb shell su -c "rm /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib/*"
adb shell su -c "rmdir /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib"
adb shell su -c "mkdir /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib"

* If you cannot push it (AdobeFlashPlayer.apk and lib) by adb, you can copy it by root file manager, but you must change permission these files to full permission (chmod 777) and reboot your phone

FOR CM7 ROM

1.Install that : https://www.box.com/s/19a5a3b9ef846dd5e8dd
