Within 3 days of owning the note i have burn in already how is this possible. when the brightness is on the lowest setting and your on a screen with a black or grey background you can easily see back scribble marks all over from when i was in s note just drawing lines everywhere playing around. Its not like i drew them and just left the screen on for a day to burn it in either

Can you take a picture with the screen in white color?
That would really show the burn in properly.

The best thing you can do is go to the service center or return the phone where you bought it.
Samsung Service is really good and they replaced my hard bricked Galaxy Ace's motherboard for free under warranty.

i asked amazon but i dont want to return it and be without a phones for 2 weeks. they told me i should buy another one then return this one for a refund. the notes on amazon are not fullfilled by amazon now so if i get one through another dealer and theres a problem i just dont feel like dealing with them for a refund
Well, even if you returned it to Samsung for repair, you'd be without it for a few weeks, so your choice really is quite simple.
Put up with it, or return it.

daft suggestion but have you tried cleaning the screen?
it doesn't "burn" like a crt so you shouldn't see it when dark if there was a problem.
could it just be grease marks?

yeah its not the screen its clean as could be. i downloaded a screen burn-in tool and when it cycles through the colors and gets to red. u can see where the marks are but there blurry almost like they were bleeding. but all other colors u cant see the marks. but if i open up a black screen and turn the brightness down u can clearly see the black marks from when i was just scribbling lines on s-note. its def in the screen its not marks its burnt in
heres another pictures taken in the dark with a greyish background with the lowest brightness
Don't worry about the black dots, because that's a common problem for amoled screens. I also have it on my s3 that I have changed 4 times because of this problem. But sometime you can be a lucky and get one without this issue.

I sold my t-mobile nexus one and bought an AT&T nexus one. It arrived today and I noticed a dead pixel on the lower right side of the screen. What do you think: should I swap it? The biggest thing holding me back is that the swap is a refurb. I just paid for a new phone and would hate to be stuck with one that shows signs of use. I'm looking for opinions. The dead pixel is one of the green subpixels, so it looks like a red pixel on a white background. I probably wouldn't have noticed it but I just had to go looking for them since it's a brand new phone, and now that I found it I don't know if I'll be able to ignore it.
Also, how long do I have to do the swap? 14 days or 1 year?
14 Days here, 30 days in California. GET GOING!
Usually refurbs are done really well, and you won't notice a thing. If you do swap again haha.

Negative.
14 days (30 in California) is for a full refund
365 days for warranty repair
OP: I'd wait unless it's really bad.
Can you take a picture of your N1 with another camera?
My bad, I got it confused with refund, since I just did that. Haha thanks for catching it, I might have worried him.
If it had a dead pixel out of the box, it's DOA (dead on arrival). Call HTC and tell them it's a DOA and that you want a NEW phone. That's what I did and they sent me a brand new one. But you have to do it asap.

How do you know they gave you a new one? Is it possible it's a refurb that looks as good as new?
Here's some pics using a plain white screen. You'll have to ignore the artifacts. The water spot looking thing is a reflection of the lens aperture of the camera and I don't know what the green spots are. I marked the dead pixel with an arrow.

When you do a DOA, they send you a whole new phone in the new box with all new accessories... and you send everything you originally got back to them.
Doesn't a screen like this needs atleast 5 dead pixels to get a new screen/phone?
or was it with stuck pixels?

Not if it had a dead pixel right out of the box. As a general rule, if you're still within the time where you can get a refund on the item, you can typically exchange it as well.

on capacitive screens? I don't think so
I'm gonna swap it next week. CS told me the only way to get a new one instead of a refurb is to do a DOA return (for which they'll waive the $45 restocking fee; I have 14 days) and buy a new one.
I've been getting significantly worse battery life than I did with my T-mobile nexus and "display" seems to be using most of it. I can't help but wonder if there's a connection...

Not because the screen is capacitive, but because the surface of the screen is glass, not the screen itself. The "flashing" trick by itself does not work on OLED screens AFAIK, only LCD.

OP, do you wear glasses? If so, who is your eye doctor... I need to get the hookup on the specs that allowed you to spot that small of a detail! lol
I would send it back for a new one, or at least try. I'm picky about that crap... well, I used to be, until I became poor and couldn't afford to worry about the little things *sigh*
I returned two nexus one's (nexi?) for dead pixel within the first month. I called HTC directly.
THe first one was painless. I had a new phone the next day. The 2nd replacement was a pain in the ass.
It takes anywhere from 2-3 weeks for your initial phone to show up as received in HTC's system.

Heh, no I don't wear glasses. It's actually a little more noticeable in person, but only when you know to look for it. The camera didn't pick it up that well and when I resized the pic (it was huge!) the visibility went down some more. Maybe I should've never looked for dead pixels; I just didn't want to find one a couple months down the line and end up disappointed.

If not then it's not scratches. I think its an AMOLED thing. I notice it when my SGS2 freezes on a black screen. But not there when powered down or back up again.

I read somewhere that this is a residual issue caused by the bonding glue they use t to attach the glass, they should fade as the glue dries, but keep any eye on it and nuke 'em if it doesn't!
Yeh galaxy nexus has a similar thing its the amoled display some of the pixals are not turning fully of, I think that was the conclusion .
But only noticeable in very dark room with the screen black and when your eyes adjust. Could be wrong without a pic I can't say.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I think its an inherent flaw with AMOLED panels. It looks like patches of the screen do not go as dark as the rest of the screen.
Some screens are brighter than others in general though, among the same phone. This Nexus was brighter than another one I had at the same time, at both lowest and highest settings, and had less black dots on black screen, presumably because the screen was brighter overall.
Doesn't mean to say I won't check for the problem before I purchase though

Yep I have the exact same thing with my SIII but not as bad as yours. What did you do about your SIII? Did you return it? I notice it mostly on a black background whilst watching films/videos mine isn't really that noticeable on my SIII but still pretty annoying.
My phone is having this pinkish tint issue. I can observe this issue on white text and also while watching videos. I want to know whether this is a software issue or the hardware one. If it is hardware issue, I can apply for DOA for a new one. Please advise.

YES and NO.
IMO this is how AMOLED works and Samsung must find a way to calibrate screen in a way that we can have "real" black with minimal smear, and they just didn't this right yet.
Pink tint in part of the screen is faulty HW
Equally distributed pink tint is SW

Hey guys, finally went to customer care and convinced them about the pink tint. As they didn't have another S4 with them to compare, I told them to compare the whites with S3. There was this bluish tint in S3 and mine with this pink tint. So lot of difference there with these Amoled displays. I got the DOA finally and went back to the shop where I bought the phone. They gave a new one in exchange for this.
But the new one is also showing the same issue with the pinkish tint (for the whole display). I am worried now whether this issue is there for the initial batches or this is a software issue which can be resolved in the future update.

If I receive another DOA, I have to go to the same shop for exchange for a new one. I guess they have received this faulty batch and I would get the same issue with the new one again. Thinking of going to customer care and telling them to replace only the display as it will be still under warranty instead of getting the whole phone replaced in which case I am afraid I will receive another faulty one.

Maybe is due to screen protector? I try to put another screen protector on the existing one and the effect when i tilt the phone is more pronunced! I do not want to remove my spiegen screen protector to try, i'm afraid of dust... but i've tried the same thing with galaxy s3 and the screen color doesn't shift so much as galaxy s4...maybe is for different productive process of the screen?
First of all, let me say that prior to reaching the decision to open this thread, I did some quite extensive research on what I am going to talk about, but only found references to the smearing thing.
So, the problem, as quick as possible...
Do you use Tapatalk? I'm sure many of you do. You know how it's got a dark gray background, right? Well... that dark gray background... look closely. The bottom portion of the screen is going to be gray (actual gray!), while, as you go toward the top side, you'll see the color turning into a purple hue... :/
Same thing can be observed in the inverted version of Play Store (such as the one included in SlimKat) which has the same background as Tapatalk - dark gray.
I think that the top side of the screen is now displaying gray as darker purple because of the CPU (it's right there, heating the display all the time).
Anyone else experiencing issues like this one?
Thats normal with super amoled display.. I bought s4 recently and got this same issue and also some horizontal and vertical lines in the display which are only visible on low brightness.. I asked for replacement and after my phone replaced twice I got twice new phone with same issue..

I know it is a common issue with Super AMOLED displays. Having owned the Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy Note and Galaxy Note 2, I'm well aware of it. Just figured they have figured it out and made the displays much better in the Galaxy S4. Truth be told, I've owned this S4 for almost 8 months now, so it's done its job, lol.

Yea, the screen was next to perfect when I bought it - if you disregard the white color being generally inconsistent across the entire screen, which is the case for almost every AMOLED display out there (to some extent). But the gray color was the same.
To be clear, my device is a I9505, not I9500. I hear there are some differences in screens between the two models, with the I9500 having a slightly warmer screen.
@coolkoushik07, @TRusselo... Are your screens acting up, too?
I have had a samsung captivate for a year and a half, an S3 for 8 months, and now a S4 for about as long, with never one screen issue (aside from dropping it)

I don't believe that can be fixed. ?
Maybe you must go to service center to replace the screen with a new one.

A try almost app but no luck, i read somewhere that put the device in freezer in 24 hours can solve the problem. What do you think ?

Really doubt that it will help. This is toast.. Try to replace it through warranty if there are no marks from the drop, maybe you get lucky

If I were you, I would do what he said (below). If there are no drop marks, there is a very good chance you can claim the warranty!

I heard a guy repare a pixels like that with fire, yes warming up with fire tell pixels turn of with the heat and after that the pixel cool down and reset the area.... but I don't now is true.
I think its the screen itself, that can't be repaired by using apps :/

Here is the pic
I had a spot like the lower one appear on mine today. No drop, been in a case 99% of the time. Still in 14 day window to exchange with Sprint. Will they exchange for a defect that wasn't apparent immediately?

This doesn't look like a normal dead pixel. I think something has been damaged in the panel itself. Because, a dead pixel usually will just be one pixel or more not firing up, but here 3 pixels are glowing up in different colors. I think, they are receiving varying voltages of current and that makes them glow differently. If you don't have any scratches, take it to samsung service center ASAP. They will replace the entire screen along with the digitizer.

Yes, if you are still within the swap window and if there is no evidence of damage, you can easily get it swapped.
Exact same thing is wrong with mine. Does yours have a slight rattle like somethings loose inside?
I think I'm screwed. I bought mine used, don't have the original receipt of purchase and I'm using a 928T on ATT. Samsung won't honor a warranty without a receipt (according to their website), and obviously att or tmobile won't do anything

Did you get a new screen from Samsung service? I have the same problem and wondering can I get free because it's not worth of paying the replacement.
Is there any fix for this issue or it is really the screen that is broken and not the pixels. I got this on s7 edge aswell.
