Never owned a IPS screen or so.
Is it normal to have yellow tint on the edges when having a black background ? When I have a white background its pure white ( saw someone with yellow tint on white background) .

Nope. That is one of the problems that some users are facing. You should RMA your 7.
It would be pretty bogus if that was how ALL IPS screens were, lol.

True. After hours or researched. I came up with not much to go off by lol.
PC screens with IPS screens were saying that yellow tint were cause by a glue not being dry out evaporated yet and the more you use it they tend to just go away and get Better. I guess iPad 2 had similar problems. Most of them advice to use it more and they will go away so I might try that . I'd hate to be without this for a week to 2 weeks. But then again I got mine at Sams but their put and no way of knowing when they we will one.
Didn't happen doh until I got some heavy duty gaming last night. So might have gotten hot and was evaporating the left over glue? Lol correct me if I am wrong but that's what I gather so far..

I don't have it in mine and don't know much about it but my roommates IPS monitor NEVER had a yellow tint.
And Google will do an advanced RMA where they send you one and put a hold on your credit card until you send the other one back.

I have some dead pixels on my Nexus 7. I purchased it from Sam's Club and am embarrassed to exchange it over a couple dead pixels. The pixels aren't noticeable unless they are on a white screen.
Does anyone else have any dead pixels?
Does anyone know how to fix them?
UPDATE:
If you're experiencing dead pixels return the Nexus. I've just started experiencing some bad screen flicker. The second I get back from vacation I'm returning it.

I suspect with the gorilla glass, it would be difficult if not impossible to fix. Usually they can be fixed if you apply some direct pressure on the screen, but with the glass, I don't see how that's possible. I would just replace it, dead pixels bug my OCD!
I too would return it. In the one case where I did get a dead pixel on an LCD monitor on my desktop, I wasn't able to fix it, even with all of the applications out there that flash each pixel a hundred times a second or whatever... I've just dealt with it since I bought the monitor second hand dirt cheap. In the event of the tablet I'd likely opt to replace it.

Does the N7 even have Gorilla Glass?
I too purchased a Nexus 7 today (just happened to be from Sam's Club as well) and I have a single dead pixel (it's more grey than black though) in the bottom-middle part. It's only noticeable on white or grey backgrounds. I've been running various "dead pixel" transition screens found on YouTube for about 10 minutes so far to no avail. I haven't decided what I'm going to do as to returning it or not.
Dead pixels are a defect. You should have no qualms about returning it. The store will have no problems taking it back, believe me.
Especially if it came from Sam's since they probably have more units... at least my local Sam's Club does. No reason to settle for dead pixels if it bothers you.

I have four stuck pixels that light up blue when the screen is black. I'll probably be keeping it nevertheless as it doesn't have any other problems and the pixels aren't quite visible unless the screen is black.
Don't be embarrassed, you paid good money for this product and its not right. Take it back.

Agreed, they should be used to dead pixels, they sell TVs!
In addition to the dead pixel, I've noticed some random flashing in the middle of the screen. I'm not able to do anything in particular to reproduce it, but it's just very infrequent and random. It's only happened twice in the last 4 hours since unboxing it. Needless to say, I'll be returning for replacement tomorrow.

Well the Nexus is barely half the price of the new ipad. And the Galaxy SIII also costs more then twice as much if you don't buy it from a carrier. (or whatever it's called in the USA or Canada) So that's probably the reason the display isn't as good as those 2.

I couldn't find a single dead pixel in my GNX7 so far. It's pretty flawless, with no bezel separation / raised display, leakage and flickering of any kind.
I was lucky.

i have a white one with no issue. but i got something people can try. turn the lights out, and view a black screen/page of something and sorta manipulate the light from the buttons in the palm of your hand so as to use it as a flashlight (because a flashlight and blacklight wont work), i found some weird looking defect or hieroglyph in the middle left side. but it doesnt affect anything only i will ever know its there. kinda weird.. looks like a crudely drawn number 4 wrote with a stylus permanently embedded in the polarizing film
Is it that whitish color because dirt go in there? Or did it actually look like that when you got it?
I feel like I have a slight on the bottom of mine now...

Well as many of you posted you had flawless Nexus I pulled the trigger but for my horror I got a Lemon.
First I thought I had only the screen lift but after two weeks It have started to develop Screen Flicker and the slightest screen bleed in the right corner... a black pixel line when I open a hard task or its charging something.... the screen not responding and the ghosting :banghead: to my other horror I can't return it cause my father bought it to me and I'm in Mexico so no return but I wanted to know what are Software related and what are hardware related

So the Screen Separation is Hardware as the Screen Bleed
But the flicker, the sudden line that I just see like one a day and the ghosting that goes away with a reboot are all hardware?! The HTC titan had the ghosting too and with an update it went away

Well actually the screen flicker can be fixed by running a script. Look for the thread that says screen washout out fix. It will disable the nvidia smart dimmer. And the screen lift can be fixed' Google it . And not sure what the this "ghosting" is.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Xparent White Tapatalk 2
Well first I don't know if when going from homescreen to homescreen and seeing the icons going from side to side it looks like it leaves a trace behind that disappears after a couple of milliseconds and I don't know if its just an animation or ghosting.....and second is after being in my social homescreen the white parts stay onscreen in the background until I reboot but that only happened once and never again

IIRC you used the clamp and heat method to try and reactivate the glue. Best of luck, but that approach has been temporary for most users.
And you telling him to Google it would almost certainly lead to him fiddling with the screws, which is even less effective than the clamping.
Here is the only fix known to work. It's a delicate procedure and I wouldn't recommend it unless your lift is severe, GalaxyDev.
Sorry for your troubles, but hopefully you can see past these flaws and enjoy the tablet as is. I'm sure this device is a rare sight in Mexico.
The only reason why I considered that is because my screen lift is so minor, its like a hair lifted so my guess is the adhesive needs rebonding.

I posted last night that there is this really small white dot on my screen. It only visible on light colors like white . But its not visible if the color is really dark. Like on you tube where the search option is it not visible but when i go to Facebook i can see right next to my notification but its small. Anyways is there a way for it to go away? This phone is only like a day old :/ & it was bigger last night but it got smaller because i played a video that repeated blue red and green fast because i heard it make stuck pixel go back to normal.
Also is it a dead pixel or stuck?

I just saw a white pixel on the middle of the screen but I can only appreciate it at dark, when screen is black and brightness set to maximum (which I never have on dark environment). Was that an issue for you? I really have to look for it for a while in any other case. Pixels are sooo small. Don't even bother to rma. No other issue with the phone.
I'm thinking it's just a pixel stuck in a grey colour because it so difficult to see.

Nice lcd screen, nice weight balance, nice keyboard and most of all so smooth, exactly like the Note 2 I had before.

In portrait mode top left on about 4-5cm and top right side 2-3cm. Shop wouldn't replace it... It's true that in normal use you don't see it, only with dark movies. My Tab2 was as bad or worse but on the 10.1 screen it wasn't so bothersome.
If it bothers me I will try to send it in under warranty.

I dont know I'm living with it for now. Fact is that when you flex the tablet the whole screen goes black or white so probably there is something with how these tablets are built. Also if I press at the spot the light bleed disappears...

Welcome to the club! While I was very happy with mine out of the box I'm getting a lot of pleasure out of tweeking the performance and trying out different apps to take advantage of the stylus (in between playing a shed load of games that wouldnt run on my old tablet).
There is no need to open a new thread because you bought the tablet. Imagine everyone who buys Galaxy Note 8.0 to open a new thread.
