Im barely over 24 hours of ownership so hopefully others will contribute. It has happened to me a couple of times. Not too worried about this one as its so easily fixed.
[Nexus One General] drdingo21:
My old Nexus one (the one with the tint) had the screen calibration issue as well. It happened maybe twice a day.

But like he said, just put the phone to sleep and then wake it up and all is well.

This new phone seems solid tho.
[Nexus One General] Bryce2010:
aaw damb it... ok guess i shouldnt wait for the software update. it's true though if it was a simple software tweak why is it taking so long?
[Nexus One General] Bryce2010:
I'm sooo confused
[Nexus One General] Bryce2010:
[/QUOTE]The rep told me I could buy a new one and return the old one.. but theres [/QUOTE]

i was told because of border taxes the only thing i could do was a repair... but you're not in the US either and you were given this option? what is going on?
[Nexus One General] southeastbeast:
I have the original TMobile one from January and I don't recall a purple tint. I just got my insurance replaced one for Tmobile and this one has the purple tint. So it's not just ATT versions that have it. I think it's all the newer ones. =)
[Nexus One General] jasrups:
Yeah I called them and *****ed like you said, and got then to waive the re stocking fee.

I have a favor to ask though, if you have time do you mind putting up comparison picture of widgets like power control and music (ie dark stock eclair widgets) in dim light conditions? So far the widgets are the only things experiencing this issue for me. It would be great if I could compare to how the widgets are actually supposed to look like!

well called HTC & everything's all set up for repair. tried to get them to just send out a new one but because I am past the 2 week 'buyers remorse period' they wouldnt do it. So back to my iPhone. It may not be as snappy, or as 'techy', or as sexy as the N1 but hey, at least it works right!
[Nexus One General] jasrups:
I just ordered my new Nexus today, will hopefully get a fully functional one this time!

I'll keep you guys posted as to how the new one compares to the old
[Nexus One General] izmar:
I am a victim of this as well.

I will be calling google tomorrow.
[Nexus One General] sn95chico:

Color banding is also a huge gfx bug under 3Dgallery because it's limiting colors to 65k, using Desire ROM nomal gallery solved the problem
[Nexus One General] Bryce2010:
Well if the ugly purple hue was limited to the gallery that would be one thing - but it's the entire UI that's affected...

HTC said I'd get an email with a shipping label to print for repair "anywhere from 2 to 24 hours". Well guess what it's been over 24 hours and no email! Called HTC and they said they would escalate the issue but because it is the weekend I should wait untill Tuesday to call them if I still have not got the shipping email.

What a joke
[Nexus One General] izmar:
I just called Google, and got a really nice guy, then I was transferred to HTC and got this really lazy speaking man. The HTC guy said the shipping label takes 24-48 hours to be emailed.

Theres 3 options he gave me. I can send my phone to them, and wait for them to send me a new one. I can have a new one directly sent to me, then I ship mine back, and I dont remember the third option.

I want to do the option where they send me a new one, and then I ship mine back, but I dont have $529 to to go into holding status... What to do what to do
[Nexus One General] krabman:
Isnt it going on the credit card anyways and then they credit you?
[Nexus One General] izmar:
I dont have a credit card....
[Nexus One General] krabman:
Oh, I didnt know there was another way to get an N1 in the first place. Surely you know someone who does have one? Its not a huge favor as its just a temp charge and gets credited back in a week or so when the returned phone arrives.
[Nexus One General] onetwoxu:
I've had the same purple tint issue with my AT&T Nexus One. I sent it in once for repair and the second one they sent me had the exact same screen. I called HTC and they were not at all helpful, the rep said that all AT&T nexus ones have the same screen and that the magenta hue is simply the way the display looks. It's extremely distracting and now I'm thinking about just selling my N1. :(
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
Kind of off topic here. Someone on the android forum insisted that the ndxia unrestricted only has 16 but colours. Is there another source that says otherwise?
[Nexus One General] Zenoran:
so I was under the impression this was a problem with all Nexus One's... I have the ATT version and it does have the purple tint... it's especially noticeable when browsing a webpage with a white background... when you scroll the page it flashes a purplish tint against the white...

are you guys saying a replacement from HTC fixes the problem?
[Nexus One General] Old MuckenMire:
Just for the record, I have two Nexus Ones:

My Tmobile version has the purple tint.

My ATT 3G version has a blue tint to it.

Unless I look at then side by side, my eyes adjust to each version after a couple minutes.

I actually prefer the purple tint if I had to choose. I think the warmer color pallet makes wallpapers pop more than does the blue tint. Everything looks a little more muted with the blue tint. But like I said, unless you look at them side by side all the time, my eyes adjust to each and it's not an issue.
[Nexus One General] onetwoxu:
I sent mine in for repair after talking to a Google rep, Got it back in 2 days and it had the same purple tint. Called Google back who transfered me to an HTC rep who told me that it was normal and that there was nothing they could do for me.
[Nexus One General] Zenoran:
Hmmm I just talked to HTC and they said some are worse than others but they all have a hint of the saturation. tmobile is blue and att is magenta apparently... weird.

They're going to send me another one so I can compare to see if it's better than the one I have... if not I guess I'll just drop it lol.

Seems weird they wouldn't have an alternative screen replacement option for people especially when it's a known problem.
[Nexus One General] princeasi:
Yeah I just received my exchange, and in comparison to my original unit, I noticed the purplish tint on the low brightness settings instantly. I called up htc and notified them about the discoloration and she stated that it shouldn't be like that at all! Well, they'll be receiving that one back as well!
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
My first replacement had a pink screen as well - went back immediately.

Waiting for the new replacement.
[Nexus One General] SamUserInterface:
Huh. My ATT phone has this too, but I figured that its a backlight issue. I just pump up the brightness myself.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
2nd replacement also had a pink screen (but less so than the first replacement).

My original N1 did not have any pink hue at all. Just brilliant colors on all brightness levels.

I will probably continue switching replacements until I get one that doesn't have this but for now it is fine.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
you better be careful doing swaps now because amoled screens are no longer available for the nexus. so you very well could get back one with the SLCD screen rather than the amoled. and from the videos i've seen, i'll take the amoled screen ANYDAY, with pink color and all. if i were you i would just keep it and call it a day. once you send them back your amoled, you cant get it back no matter what.
[Nexus One General] princeasi:
The HTC reps are only there to pacify the customers. They have no control over what the warehouse sends. On two occasions, I've specifically requested for them to not send me a unit with a purplish tinted display and still they did it anyways. My current unit is att and the display is perfect with no off colors at all. So every time they send me a bad unit, I package it up immediately and send it right back to them and I'll request another. The only thing is the turnaround period kills me!
[Nexus One General] stuff:
My original had no pink tint AT ALL. I was like you, and had a perfect AMOLED screen.

Then I dropped it and it cracked. So I bought a replacement AMOLED from a 3rd party (yes a legit one) and installed it. I've got a slight pink tint. But I never put my brightness under 50%. I've learned that under 50% it starts to turn pink. So keep it at 50% or higher.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
That's what everybody should do.

Not my fault if they can't do proper quality control for a $600 phone.

Somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I do not think that they can legally replace an AMOLED N1 with a LCD screen N1.

In CA that wouldn't count as honoring the warranty, which would make one eligible for a return (i.e. getting the $600 back ... even if it is a 11 month year old phone).
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
I don't know if its legal or not, but Samsung can't provide them with the amoled screen, so there's not much they could do if there is no supply. I just wouldn't even wanna risk it.
[Nexus One General] xXJay_RXx:
i have an AT&T Nexus One n i dont see this. i hope im not color blind lol :D
[Nexus One General] stuff:
It's not that they decided to use different technology. Samsung is lacking in producing them. You cannot sue a company because they cannot keep up with the demand of a product..
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
Yeah - but they also cannot do a warranty exchange for an inferior product without your consent and/or renumeration.
[Nexus One General] stuff:
Nobody claims it being inferior besides consumers. The companies will say they are equal in quality, therefore the California Government would probably accept that and allow it. (In my opinion)
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
exactly. if you want to take the risk and say "technically i am entitled to an amoled screen" then go ahead and swap it. but i really really would not take that risk unless you have a complete failure that needs replacing. otherwise call it a day and enjoy your amoled screen!
[Nexus One General] ksc6000:
Calibration fix

I just got a ATT nexus one off craigslist, and I also have a T-mobile nexus one. The difference is ridiculous!

The ATT one does not look right at all. Everything that's supposed to be white is so pinkish. I know that this is a known problem, but is there a software color fix for this besides the hack in the development section (doesn't seem to be compatible with the ROM I'm running (Enom's 2.11.2) ?
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
no... :( its a defective screen. call nexus one support and get a swap or a replacement. pm me for the number. i had a bad screen, called them, got it swapped ($529 hold on bank acc) and my phone didnt have the problem.
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
And PS, you'll still get an AMOLED screen, but the phone is refurb. But it looks new, its ridiculous :)
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
My screen doesn't look pink but the white is more to the cool side, kind of blueish. Is this normal?
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
I've never personally heard anything bad about blueish screens but I would consider it a defect. Whites should be white. Etc.

Here's a good way to tell. Put your screen on the lowest setting, go into the clock app and hit the brightness button and tell us what color the numbers are. (Should be dark dark grey)
[Nexus One General] mythamp:
i personally thought that my atnt display was defective but it seems the display gets better in time. I have changed my screen protector a few months back (it was a really good one, scratch proof, makes the display slightly darker and give a higher contrast). I am not sure if its the protector or just time as the tint is no more! :S

I read here in the forums that the tint was suppose to away with time. I am a believer now. My advice is do not send it back and get a refurbished one for this!
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
so your display went from purple to normal? can you give us a little more detail? thank you :) this is great information for those of us with "defective" screens!
[Nexus One General] mythamp:
Yes, its definitely perfect now, I bought mine back in June. I learned about the defect after I clicked "buy"!! :S So I was really worried that my unit would be "defective" too.

After I got my unit, there it was, Grey Color showing in Pink. The test i performed was to go to www.htc.com, there to my horror, the grey background would come out as pink, thus proving the "defectiveness". Only recently I noticed that the color has now moved back to gray showing up as gray. Either its because of the higher darkness provided by my recently purchased screen protector/color getting fixed with time/I am going colorblind due to N1! - Haha, but I honestly think it got fixed with time.

I read in another thread as such - few months ago - that this pink/purple tint is expected to go away with time, as the screen gets used and the colors cool down and now I am a believer!
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
Wow... this is great to hear. My swap unit is already on the way haha. Its good! Now I don't have to worry. Thank you.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
Definitely did NOT happen for me so far and it has been a while.

Are you sure that you are not more accustomed to the color tint?

Did you try comparing two N1 screens (one of which you know doesn't have the tint)?
[Nexus One General] princeasi:
Are you speaking of the tint that would only show up on the lowest bright settings or did your phone have the tint on all settings?
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
YES! this is at least what I am talking about.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
Reading comprehension = 0

My current replacement shows noticeable pink on brightness of less than 50%.

That is much less than earlier replacements which were pink on pretty much all brightness levels.

It's been 1 1/2 months with this replacement and there is NO difference in pinkness: it is bearable at 50% but definitely noticeable at lower settings.
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
My fault. I just meant that, in my situation, the pink level is terrible at the lowest brightness setting.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
I do not think that it is going away though you might get used to it.
[Nexus One General] princeasi:
If im understanding the context of your "Reading comprehension = 0" comment correctly, then my response to that is dont be an idiot! I understood exactly what i read, and I know exactly the question I asked! make sure your reading comprehension is up to par before responding with smartass comments!
[Nexus One General] SiNJiN76:
Sometimes when a Polar bear gets dirty...it's not all White. There are some brown on the bottom half...it'll return to white after it dives into the water to catch prey. Then again...if he does catch prey...he'd just get all dirty again. :p
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
WTF are you talking about?

Even the poster, zachthemaster, admitted that his response to the question did not make any sense.

Back to topic: so far there is no evidence that pink screen is getting better unless someone can post some pics
[Nexus One General] princeasi:
The way you constructed your post, it seems you were implying that my "Reading Comprehension" was at a level of "0" because of the question I asked previously to another poster! If so, then yes, I took offense to your comment.
[Nexus One General] stuff:
I posted a while back that my display was really pink/red tinted. Well, it hasn't really gotten any better... BUT

I have my phone at 50% brightness always, as I said before, and that makes it look normal.

Also my brightness at 50% still gives me batter life over 24 hrs of usage. Max I've seen was like 52hrs. Some standby, but a good amount of usage as well.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
Apparently it your reading comprehension is at a level of 0, since you are apparently the only one that doesn't get it. But thanks for trying.
[Nexus One General] ksc6000:
Stop hijacking this thread
[Nexus One General] ksc6000:
Solution that works for me and may work for you!!!

Now this isn't gonna work or be acceptable for everyone but it certainly is for me. In the development section someone released a hack which allows you to calibrate your screen color settings with RGB sliders. I tried it and it did not work for me. Kept force closing.

So I asked enomther if he can put in a custom render effect in his spare parts for his next ROM release and he said he will look into it, and he did it!! I upgraded to his newest version last night, used the custom render effect and now my att nexus one looks the same as my T-Mobile one! I'm very pleased. I encourage you guys to try it out, and if it works for you definitely donate a bit to enomther.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
That is EXCELLENT news!!!!
[Nexus One General] ksc6000:
Just to add, the way you use it, is to go into Spare Parts in Enomther's ROM, and hit Render Effects, custom, and for me, I had to reduce the red and the blue sliders very slightly and it did it. The colors and everything looks natural now. White looks white instead of pink.
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
That's great. I'm starting to get sick of cyanogen so i might try enomthers rom
[Nexus One General] Brownbay:
What's the verdict on how effective Render Effects are to those with tint issues?

I've got a slight red tint, enough for me to notice at the lowest brightness setting... I was contemplating sending my phone in for repair to HTC (can't do a swap as I'm in Canada), but I'm not sure I want to open that can of worms given all the horror stories on HTC's customer support.

In fact, when I phoned in to find out if a nic on the paint job would be considred damage to the phone, the rep said that there's a good chance the service centre might deem this as physical damage and I'd be required to fork over $55. Insane!
[Nexus One General] Crusher16:
I just purchased my second t-mobile Nexus One and this one is newer and in way better shape, but this one does have a slight pink tint on the screen, mainly in greys, if the brightness is is below around 50%. Kind of interested in knowing if HTC would fix this or not. or if it matters since I didn't buy this one new.
[Nexus One General] stuff:
I'll tell you this..

having the battery at 50% doesn't seem to suck any more battery power than having it at its lowest setting.

I always have mine at 50%, and I get over 24 hrs of usage before I need to recharge, always.

I do not know which PB00IMG i just flashed???? I followed these instructions:

1. Download this file: PB00IMG.zip

2. Place PB00IMG.zip onto the root directory of your sdcard.

3. Power down your phone.

4. Hold Volume Down while you Power On. This should bring you to a screen saying "HBOOT" and some other stuff. Wait for it to load the image, and it will say Push Activate. Push the trackball button to continue. The process will take around 5-10 minutes. The first time your phone boots up it will take a lot longer than normal

After I did this the phone booted fine!! I am running 2.1!!!

But i dont know how to tell if it was the rooted or leaked???????
[Droid Eris Android Development] ivanmmj:
Which instructions did you follow? Mine?
[Droid Eris Android Development] denonlake:
Yes

I followed yours but the link for your file wouldnt work for me so i downloaded from another source? Is there a way to check which version I have under the system information menu in the phone???
[Droid Eris Android Development] sourcesociety:
Download Terminal Emulator if you don't already have it. Run it.

Type: su

Press enter. If it returns a pound symbol (#) without any error message, then you have root.
[Droid Eris Android Development] denonlake:
It says permission denied???
[Droid Eris Android Development] deseo:
bad realty bad i upgraded to leaked :( all these mist understanding should they put a different names to a rooted and no rooted?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gzu36c:
Sounds like the leaked version

Thanks for the help..... Guess I will wait for the 2.1 root or rollback

i thought of re doing doloop's modd for TP2 :)

and here it is :) fully tested to be working :)

now we can mtty our X1 without having the need of MTTY and its drivers :)

INSTRUCTIONS:

- download and unzip

- run then ROMUpdateUtility.exe and wait for it to finish.....

- device will reboot but will neva go past the bootscreen coz there is no OS to boot :eek:

- take our batti and then flash a rom using mSD card or by taking device into bootloader and using customRUU to load ur favorite ROM :)

DOWNLOAD:

http://valkyrie.htc-files.com/downloads/roms/valkyrie/XPERIA/task29.zip

WHATS TASK29\MTTY

when u flash a rom, you are copying files onto the internal memory (like duh!) but if u repeatadly flash different roms, sometimes files from older version stays behind as when u flash a rom, you just copy and sometimes overwrite files without deleting the older ones. hence at times these older files may create bugs\instability. hardrest donot always fix it.so we use MTTY

read this post to know what made me such a firm fan of mtty.http://xdaforums.com/show...postcount=6085

but the thing is, mtty is and can be hard to use for new users. ... for me,, i was having the worst time installin the drivers needed to run mtty on win7 x64. so u i made this tool for me and for all
