Not sure what you're talking about. Do you mean the 3 dots on the bottom? Those are the 3 bottons which correspond to the back, home, and multitasking buttons. Pretty sure its a bug that they're showing on the lockscreen. And pixels are a lot smaller than those dots
And if pixels are physically broken/malfunctioning on your device, we can't see it in a screenshot

Agreed!

Sorry didn't notice the screen shot turned out bad but no not talking about the home button etc. The top right portion and all the black above the home back and app button is what I actually see. The background will be there dim and then just random black chunks and squares appear such as they show in the screen shot
Rolled out from my Gnex Prime

PS obviously it does show up on the screen shot as its right there and yes I know pixels are smaller however there is a pixel like pattern as every blacked out area of the screen is in those pixel like squares
Rolled out from my Gnex Prime

Here's a new one. Again notice the black blotches on the bottom left and center top. I noticed this in the clock app when I dim it. I've also noticed a blacked out streak in the gray background when I load up gta3
Rolled out from my Gnex Prime

That looks like the background picture used. It's probably of low detail.

The background is the standard galaxy nexus wallpaper the same one found on half nexus reviews and I'm pretty sure the nexus reveal as well. Normally the background looks nothing like that and even when I dim the screen in the clock app it never looks like that until the screen shot. The main point I'm making are the black blotches in the top and bottom that appear on many apps randomly

here's more black blotches hard to notice on the screen shot though

Okay, bro.. my advice would be to exchange it. It doesn't matter if anyone here notices it, really. If it's bothering you, that's all that matters.

.... wait is this a joke? Like I said. If you're having trouble with your screen, the defects will not show up in a screenshot. You have to take a picture of the screen with another camera lol.
Obviously something is bugging you on the screen. Return/exchange the phone if it bothers you that much.

I'm just curious if anyone else were to go to the same things if their phone does it as well. If its on most phones I'm not going to worry about it but if its just mine then yeah I switch it out. I'd just rather not switch it out for a new one that has the same issue as well as all the other ones people have been complaining about on theirs as mines been pretty good

Thats fine. But no one knows what you're talking about if you keep posting screenshots. We cannot see the problem with a screenshot...

(Erased frustration)
Rolled out from my Gnex Prime

I apologize for the rant. I just checked using my computer and the blotches don't show.... :/ I'm confused lol my phone even shows the blotches in the screen shots when they are tiled in the gallery however I can zoom in and move the picture around and the blotches remain. But each picture has dif blotches and they each remain on the screen for that specific picture dispite zooming and moving. Sorry idk how to describe it really
Rolled out from my Gnex Prime

I guess for example on the gta3 shot with orange letters the blotch is a line from the left screen going to the center. I can zoom in completely away from that original spots and the blotch remains in the same spot on my phone. Swipe to the side for my next screenshot and the blotch is in the new location and remains despite zooming and moving. That a little better? :/ again sorry for snapping its late I'm crabby and don't like noticing faults in my phone ha
Rolled out from my Gnex Prime

You need to either take a picture of the screen with another camera or no one can help you because we don't know what specifically you're describing.
It is clearly frustrating you strongly. You should exchange it.
There are several other threads on screen defects, maybe you should browse through those.

How's this? The bottom if the phone when in camera app and dimmed
Rolled out from my Gnex Prime

I recall reading that the thing with amoled screens is that they are able to completely turn off to display black. After flipping through wallpapers and apps I've noticed it only happens on dark ones. Perhaps the phone is being told that its a pure black space and to shut off the pixels there?

It would help if you could provide us with some pictures of your phone.
I think it's a common issue with SuperAMOLED. I had a screen burned with Galaxy S top bar, where the battery icon was. You just have to live with it...
took some pics but its not very obvious on camera - guess i'll just live with it didnt realise it was a problem with super amoled screens tho!
I would return the phone to get a warranty-replacement.
Never heard of screen burn with AMOLED-screens before. I have my Omnia7 since November and there isn't the slightest hint of a screen-burn yet.

Go to Samsung Galaxy S i-9000 area and Search "Screen burn". Theres plenty of threads and posts about screen burn. Also Wikipedia confirms OLED displays burn in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_burn-in#Plasma_.26_LCD_.26_OLED
You can always try to replace it, but doubt it they will...

Oh...I just knew that blue colour will fade with time, not that it can burn in. But this happens when something like a logo is displayed for hours every day. I doubt that this effect is meant to happen with a phone display that is off most of the time and when it's switched on it displays a lot of different pictures and apps.
Hmm...I would definitely try to get a replacement -I won't accept a burned in screen.
Blimey this is like Plasma Display burn-in all over again....
Glad I have an HD7 then
Returning a phone for repair is so much hassle tho it can takes aggess and may even lose all my data on the phone (hmm unless latest update has that backup thingy) i'll leave it for now see if it gets anyworse! Other super amoled people beware!
Bought my Omnia 7 in germany and have also experienced a small form of burn in when I am surfing the web.
The 2 circles leave a burn in when I slide up the IE options bar. This fades away over time and is the same type of behaviour as on plasma TVs.
I wouldnt worry much about it if it fades away. Turn off your phone and check if the marks are still there! I am certain that they wont be!
But if they are ... get it fixed.
Hi, just a suggestion... Try to enter LCD test via samsung codes.. Search on this forum for samsung codes..
Yes, screen burn in is common with Super AMOLED screens. However, you shouldn't have a problem unless you leave your phone on (set to the highest brightness with a static image visible) for hours on end.
I've seen a large number of Galaxy S screens with imprinted icons on them, and the reason for that was because they were left on for hours.

I see you are on orange. Any warranty claim i have had with orange has resulted in a new handset being at my door the following morning. Pretty quick service.
I saw this on the Display Focus at my local AT&T. they have the demo mode going, so when it's not being payed with on top it always says Windows Phone and it got burned on.

Burn-in is actually the end results of some pixels faded more than others. So, yeah, blue color will easily have burn-in effect since it only lasts about 2000 hours.
I know that retuning the phone for repair will cause you wait for ages but there is not another way for it..So you should copy your private data in your laptop or any other storage device .So it will be kept safe with you...
Well i had the worst combination then because i had the blue theme setting and i decided to keep my brightness on full! so thats what caused it then!

Exactly. On my Captivate (Android), I found most of the wall papers on Android are blue themed. In early days of Nexus One, it was reported that using a red theme not only saves your blue pixels but also saves battery.
In comparison (2,000 hrs of Blue pixel life), modern plasma TVs typically has 80,000 to 100,000 hours of phospher life. So, AMOLED/OLED screen is way to easy to get burn in. The only saving grace is most ppl already move on to new phones well before all these panel life span issues show up.
I've uploaded some pics! One is not much use, i was amazed how microscopic my cheap webcam was!!!! but still it woulds seem the dark patch is growing and hmm i didnt know that about the blue pixels! wont be using that again!

[Q] Would this qualify as defective?

My screen shows banding on screens with gradients, like the call log screen, or screens with certain colors, like when I'm playing wordfeud. Even when I'm browsing the white background has faint horizontal and vertical lines.
All of this is only visible when on the lowest brightness setting. So when I'm browsing in bed at night etc it's really annoying.
I went to the (3) store here in denmark, but because it was a well lit room, the problem was barely visible and they said they'd have to send it in for "assesment", and best if i could come back in January and send it in (for 2-3 weeks). I'm just afraid they'll just return it with "problem not found"
I DID manage to report the problem to them on the 14th day after i bought it, their own DOA limit, but I've got a feeling I'm going to get screwed. Especially because the in store phone ALSO seemed to show the same color banding on the call log background.
I've tried taking some pictures that maximize the problem here: http://imgur.com/a/CbKYi#9
Are you guys seeing the same thing on any of your devices?
I love the phone to death otherwise, but it's like a scratch on a brand new car, it's annoying me a LOT.
unfortunately, that's just how they all are. has to do with the display type. both of the nexus' i've had were the same way, as was the display unit in my local verizon store.

You aren't seeing "banding" in the traditional screwed up screen sense, you're seeing the back of the display. I think it's just part of being SAMOLED and Pentile. I never noticed it until I started reading all the threads about people complaining over "banding" (and I don't think you're complaining LOL ).
Bump it up from the dimmest setting just a bit and most of it will go away. Our dimmest setting is REALLY good, at least compared to my old SGS. I also like how are screens don't have that SGS SAMOLED blue tint to them.

go to that call log screen again and press vol down + power. then look at the screen shot on the computer.

the background is ment to look like that
All 4 phones and 7 models that I've gotten to use from Samsung have this problem.
SAMOLED just isn't very good yet.

happy to hear my phone is not defective, but then again im very disappointed that this is a quality issue with the phone.
I read tons off aritcles discussing the difference between Super AMOLED and Super AMOLED plus (pentile and RGB) and this forum probably did the best job of explaining it
now is this also the reason why whites arent really white while having hte phone in auto brighntess? is the screen is dim, my "people" app is not white, actually far from it. but when the brightness is maxed out it looks magnificent

I was disappointed by the screen quality at first too, but the more I use the phone the less I notice it. I've even started to really like other aspects of the display that were lacking in other phones with a "clean" screen. Colors are much more vibrant for one, this is very visible when watching videos on the phone when I'm at the gym.

Strange screen issue

I've found something odd with my screen, and although I intend to do an exchange on my S3 I figured I'd share it here to see if anyone else has seen it too.
What it seems to be is that a couple chunks of pixels go entirely black when their section of the screen calls for being black, while the rest don't. I'll try to show you what I mean:
This is a shot of my screen, running a screen test app on an all-black image. It's extremely hard to get a picture of a dark screen in a dark room with a cheap point-and-shoot, and you'll have to ignore the stuck pixels on the camera's CCD, but the red arrows point you to the bits in question (I've also turned the contrast all the way down, and brightness all the way up, in photoshop because otherwise the spots weren't very clear... and still aren't in focus... but in person these are easily visible as two dark spots in an otherwise gray background when you look at the screen in a dark place). You'll want to view it at full size, and again I'm sorry the image is so blurry but viewed in person the "blobs" in the image are in fact crisp edged vaguely tetris-block-shaped pieces of total blackness surrounded by dark gray.
For comparison this is my girlfriend's Sprint S3 screen shot with the same camera under the same conditions and with the same photoshop effect applied.
If you want to see if yours does the same thing, download "Screen Test" from the market, turn the screen's brightness up all the way, change it to the black screen (the second testing screen), then go into a totally dark room. You may have to look just off to the side of the device to see them at first, but once you've done that and seen the spots you can't un-see them.
Lest you think I'm being overly picky (although I would argue any defect in a device I paid $550+tax for is one defect too many) it IS possible to notice this even under normal usage conditions. I kept seeing a spot on the Facebook app every time I would reload a page, and every time I thought a piece of something had gotten onto the screen, but before I could wipe it away it had disappeared. It may be a minor annoyance, but it really bugs me, so I'm going to exchange it. I figured I'd document it before I did, though, just in case anyone else had seen the same things.
A lot of people have this issue, including me. But since I literally never see it unless I'm using Screen Filter at a low percentage, it's not much of a bother.
The only time I see it is when i play draw something.
Screen blobs....
They have plagued Samsung screens for a while now.
The sad part is.. from my experience with the blobs, Even with a device that doesn't have them they eventually show up.
Found on the following
My s3
Galaxy note (over 6 tested)
Galaxy s2 (a few tested)
Galaxy s2 skyrocket (over 6 tested)
Even the galaxy note 2 I recently examined
They all have them

My search led me here! I myself noticed this tonight while I was watching Underworld Awakening in my bedroom with the lights off. I have a nice blotch on the center right and a few spots scattered throughout the screen. Looks like I will have to unroot and watch this out:/ what a pain.
Here is my screen shots may be hard to see from these pics.l but its definitely there.

[Q] Should i take it for warranty? or is it normal?

hey there guys. am having multiple issues in a 1 week old Note 2 which i noticed very recently.
first issue being , strange fade outs near home button, (tried cleaning screen with everything from water to specs lens cleaner,it's a permanent thing..... and looks like it is under the glass )

Second issue is non-aligned fade outs on front cam and sensor
third issue is , there are few pixels on left side of screen that do not blend in with other black pixels around them(except for videos where color is similar to pull down menu on home screen).it doesn't move either.it's in a permanent location. it can't be seen under proper light and only appear on more or less lowest screen light setting with ambient light off.this issue however doesn't occur with any other color of video,they blend in perfectly.it's similar to note 1's black crush issue,but on a specific spot
sorry but this is the best pic my cam could get. you have to look very carefully
Last issue is, S pen doesn't work on lower right side of the screen. like on the very end in the corner. it works fine in other 3 corners.
I know i sound extremely paranoid.... but i love this device so much ! would love perfection. should i take it to service center? will be pretty darn hard to explain the issues though. and can i expect a replacement ? on the side note, i got it from India and no carrier.
Thank you for reading

Hey,
I dont have ANY sort of fade outs anywhere. You should definitely have it checked. As for the S pen....even mine doesnt work all the way down to the end on the lower right but does go to the end of corners of remaining 3.

First question, do you have a screen protector on? If you do that will explain everything.
Looks like a misaligned screen protector to me.

guess it's warranty time then
and no ... no screen guard is on.it's whitish cuz of moisture and oily hands,can't help it in India's climate and tired of wiping the screen every hour. but those fade outs are permanent thing.
i do plan on getting screen guards soon after taking it for warranty though.

Yellowish tint on screen?

Might be being paranoid due to 2 XL screen issues but has anyone notice a yellowish tint to the screen? It almost seems like off axis is more pure white and looking directly on is a warmer white if that makes sense. Might try to take pics but not sure I can capture it.
I haven't noticed any hardware problems with the display yet, although I do have black clipping in movies.
Instead of starting a new thread I decided to post my issue here because it's screen related. I don't have any yellow hue with my screen. I unfortunately have a pinkish hue on the right side of my phone. I saw it immediately after powering up for the first time. Kinda reminds me of the S8+ fiasco. It's just in the right side and starts about the middle of the screen and heads up to the top. I called Google and they took my issue very seriously. They wanted pictures and it's a very hard thing to capture with a video or pic but they said they could see it in one of the pics I sent. They have me play some white screen YouTube video and wanted a picture while that was playing. Anyways, they took my info about the issue to some higher ups and called me back about an hour and a half later. The person I dealt with was nice but a bit pushy with getting pic results. He was concerned about some widespread issue because the phone was just released. So he said that these panels have some color shifting (ok? Already went over that) but offered to send out a new replacement. That is me basically buying another and not getting charged unless my original phone isn't returned on time. I'm very disappointed with the screen having this issue. I went through the whole blue screen last year. I had to get two replacements until I received a "good one." Anyone else having screen issues with color?
Sorry to hear about your yellowish screen issue. If you aren't happy with it I'd return it. There are a few friends of mine that have great screens
Here is what I'm noticing. Maybe that's just the way it is and it's something I've never noticed before. The funny thing is I have a Xs Max and the Pixel looks better. Interestingly enough the second picture (pure white) looks similar to the Xs max if true tone is turned off.

My display is great. Beautiful. I'm grateful too because I went through 7 2 XL's before I found one with a display I could deal with.
Adaptive brightness, if on, will turn the screen yellowish in low light conditions.
Otherwise, I didn't notice anything since I received the phone today. I've been using it all day.
Nope, mine has been fantastic. Looks great.
Going to have to go check other devices in store. Can't tell if what I'm seeing is normal without another unit to compare.
No matter what phone you get an OLED screen is a lottery to how even the whites are or the degree of hues

+1 I've seen some "comparisons" saying the 3 was warmer than the 3XL they saw. I'm opposite here. Received a 3 before launch day. Nice, cool screen (which is my preference). Phone felt way too small for me so I picked up a 3XL at Best Buy yesterday. Quite a bit warmer than the 3. Returning that one today haha.

Haha If it's noticeable straight away and takes away the enjoyment of the screen then a swap is the best way. I've had devices from Samsung, Huawei, OnePlus, Google etc and I've had bad tints or uneven whites on them all..so part of the oled game
