dead/stuck/burn pixel ?? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

hi there, im here feeling frustated to have found my gnex with this yellow colored wavy tinted on my screen.
i got this 2nd hand with very cheap price. im very happy with the performance but this colored tinted really irritates me especially when im running app with white background(sms, whatsapp, etc) which will make it more obvious.
anyone with this problem and know how to fix it? my last option would be to change the digitizer of course.
currently on latest nexushd with color setting to reduce the yellowness.
T_T... its almost the perfect phone for me.....ughh
from the picture, u can see that the less yellow tinted part is where the statusbar and the navigation bar reside.
my theory is that the black colored of the statusbar and navigation bar save the screen from the tints.

[REQ] white theme

Hi there devs
so i have a simple request (i think) i would like a white theme that is just like stock ICS... so leave all the blue, and such, just turn the black into white (with the exception of the nav bar and status bar) everything else, either white or a light grey (kinda like MIUI is but except having the orange have the stock ICS blue, i would go to MIUI but 1. i hate orange, and 2, i have market place issues with MIUI)
i really hope someone can take on this project and do this for me... i knwo alot of other users might like the same thing...
thanks in advance, and of course donations will be given for the hard work
Like this?
If so you can download that from Nitroz, HERE
No... I don't want the blue accent changed to white. I want all the current black backgrounds white/light grey. Etc. You go into settings the whole background is black. I want white/light grey.
And I want the icons to stay ics stock. Not to change.
Get what I mean?

Doesn't exactly meet your criteria but this is the closest to white you're gonna get: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/20805-th...-formerly-known-as-un-blacked-out-by-bgill55/
Also, this Sense 4 theme (which I use and love) is going to be released in white (apparently) so check it out and stick about for more updates if interested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1548618
and ya i saw that ghost one... dont like that at all... like i said above, looking for the exact same thing as AOSP black but for someone to turn the menu backgrounds (eg settings) into white...
ya i am using the sense theme now. i like it, but wanting to try the white one... but i dont like the green of it... hence why i would like what i mentioned above made... i'm sure there are plenty out there looking for AOSP white holo...
I second this. Black is nice, but its nice to have a white based theme. Not completely white. Just white menus, and stock ICS apps that look right with white and respective font color to meet the white.
exactly! so like the contact app is right now.... when you open it it was a white/light grey... i want that everywhere like in the setting... that background in the setting screen, call log, dial pad, etc etc etc but leaving the blue ICS signal meter , etc, etc as it is
I want a white theme too
I want white on my nav bar around the buttons.

That challenge would be incredibly difficult. I think BGill's theme is the closest you're going to get from a guy who started Android theming.
that makes me sad and im sure alot of others... do you got a link to that theme you are refering to?...

Color Temperature ( White )

Anyone noticed that the White on this phone is not as white? The white is a little bit yellow..
* Pure White can be achieved by tiliting the phone up or down a litt.e
Same case as Galaxy Nexus.. Anyone know how to adjust the color temperature to make it white?

Depends on the brightness level and the color setting. If you have it set to movie mode it looks really yellow. Im happy with how I have it set up but I know when auto brightness is turned on and it gets darker the whites aren't as white

Go into display settings and turn off the screen power adjustment.. it makea whites not as white to save power
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Yep. Both of them are off. And set to dynamic for more saturation of color.. That gave me the whitest white..
However, it still does not get white like an LCD/LED does.. I know for the Galaxy Nexus, there was a feature to change the color(RGB0-214) . I guess we'll know in the future for this phone.
This requires kernel level settings, init.d support (busybox), and root.

[Q] Screen is way too bluish

Hello everyone
Just received my E988 today, and i was shocked to find the white on the G Pro's screen more bluish than my S4.
I always liked naturally accurate colors on displays, that's why i'm leaving the S4, and the GPro's screen is ridiculously warm and over-saturated.
Any fix for that?
Many thnx
Install the app Trickster Mod from the play store and you can adjust the color bias. Full disclosure, I've looked at the settings but haven't needed to make any color adjustments on my own phone so I'm not sure how well it will work but the option is there.

[Q] Black Theme for Note 8.0

I see the note 8.0 has white background and black fonts on most menus, including music player and settings menu, how can i change it so it look inverted, i want black backgrounds and white fonts on all this screens like on S4.
Is there a mod? or a way to change it, i want it to save battery life.
Black only saves color on AMOLED screens since it turns off the unused pixels, that's not the case with LCD screens. So if you're hoping to save battery, sorry to burst your bubble.

like the other person said.. this is NOT a AMOLED screen, not going to save you any battery...
But if you do want to mod that stuff... you can root your device and get Xposed framework.. and there are bunch of Xposed mod you can do to customize your experience
Thanks, i didn't know that, in that case i rather have white menus, easier to read

Navigation bar sometimes wrong colour on non-stock apps

Has anyone else got this on the 5t?
It happens on some non-stock apps and makes them look crap!
That's the way it was designed. You could always use a 3rd party app (Navbar Apps, for example) to make the navbar match the notification bar, but I think the off white bar they chose is a good one. Samsung and LG do the same thing.
I, for one, have never been a fan of the black navbar. It just makes it look like there is a lot of wasted space.

This is working as intended
Hi.
So I just bought my OP5T, and I can't believe how frustrating that is. The nav bar stays white on apps with a dark theme(Reddit is Fun for example) and there is no easy way to change it. I've tried the app recommended above(Navbar Apps) but it seems to be overriden by the system - if I select solid black for the navbar it switches to black for half a second and then goes back to white. Any other way to fix it, anyone?

Have you tried the dark theme on the 5T? Not sure if that makes a difference.
Yep, even with the dark theme the nav bar stays white, which makes me think this is actually unintended. Surely with the dark theme the bar should become black, but it's still white.
I know there is a setting in Navbar Apps where you can choose your own custom color and override the system. Have you given that a shot?
Yep - I've tried both override using the status bar colour and specific colour per app - neither one works. Well, it switches to black for very short time and then goes back to white. I'll try to make a video to submit to the author of the app.
So this is what happens with the Navbar Apps application - I just sent an email to the developer, hopefully he knows how to fix it!

Yeah, weird. Didn't do that on other phones. Personally I like the white navigation bar, but I can understand that we should have more options for it other than rearranging the icons.
Man that's kinda annoying. I personally like the black nav bar all the time

Yeah, I never did. Just makes the screen look smaller with a black navigation bar.

Yeah I can see that. I just think the black nav bar is more stealth whereas the white one is too obvious if that makes any sense.

Yep me too! I think the navbar default colours should match the theme colours. I couldn't get Navbar apps to work properly either.

It started bothering me the very first night I got the phone - I was in my bed, in darkness, had a dark-themed app opened....and the nav bar was blinding white in the darkness. Auto-hide on the bar helps, but then it's annoying to swipe up every time you want to use it.

Yeah, I mean it feels like a bug that the nav bar is not dark when using a dark theme.
I would suggest using the OnePlus official forums and their feedback system to make some suggestions to them.
Just use the "Hide navigation bar" in the Settings->Buttons menu. It does the trick for me at least, and I like it better

It can look better, but then you introduce another step in the process.
