Hi guys,
As a big fan of amoled panels I have been struggling to get mi N9 looking how i want it espoecially favouring darker wallpapers. I am not a great fan of IPS panels due to the washed out colours. I am finally really enjoying my whole nexus experience although i feel we are being somewhat used as beta testers by google to stir up OEMs. We are now on the verge of a new era for Android and if a major manufacturer can push out the volume and build quality like Apple. We could at long last have a tablet that matches or tops the ipad all round. Screen shots of how I have my N9 setup attached.

Sorry about the typos guys. Anyone else finding the N9 keyboard over sensitive on XDA forums?
Little or No light bleed with this wallpaper, blacks good
Just to add some little thing; AMOLED screens are mostly over saturated and far from the reality, IPS screens are not washed out.

Yes i know IPS panels show true colours its just a personal preference i even have my TV on dynamic. Its more the bkacks that bug me. The note 4 has the balance right. Looking forward to the nexus 6
Hello,
There's already a thread in Themes & Apps for posting your screen layouts

I was just wondering if any other owners noticed that the Nexus S has considerable more vertical banding than their previous handset.
My previous phone was a Vibrant and the Nexus seems much worse? Like when you pull the notification bar down you can see the vertical bands against the dark background or if you look at the background of the Gallery. It's very noticeable so I'm wondering if my phone is the only one like this or if it is a common issue with this phone?
Errr take a picture :S
Sounds like stuff related to pentile, and Nexus S not having the mDNIe part of the Super AMOLED screen, compared to other Galaxy S phones.
I saw the same thing...but its the touchwiz gallery has inhancements that make it look better.....watch on your vibrant pic an image side by side with your nexus....watch how when you click on the image it looks just like the nexus dose then it inhaces it where the ribbons dissopear....I've done it so I know...try it out

Noticed the same thing on my Samsung Focus.
It may just be the image quality of your picture, but mine is not nearly as bad as that. In fact mine is hardly even noticeable.
I exchanged mine with another one. The banding on my first one was more noticeable than the picture in this thread. The new has it a little bit but it is much clearer.
There is an LED at the bottom of the phone, but there is a dearth of photos showing how bright it is or whether it can emit various colors. Any other comments out there?
Wow if there was led notifications it would be the perfect phone.

I'm really interested about this feature ! If anyone have an information tell us!
Pretty sure it's a similar RBG LED as the Galaxy Nexus, you can see it's at the bottom of the phone below the screen. At the vert least we know it's there as the manual says it is!

Take it for what it's worth.
I think the GNex set the standard on this one, the ED will be a part of the bottom bezel.

2nd paragraph neat the bottom they state its RGB but I will look more.

Bummer. I wish more people would center the FFC. Or at least angle the camera so you don't have to offset the phone while video chatting or taking pictures. The FFC on the Nexus 4 is all the way on the right.
Anyone having this problem with one side of the screen being brighter? Very noticeable on Grey's and some blues.

Not at all, are you using a custom launcher with a desktop shadowing? Maybe just return it for a new one.

yep mine is the like that..
in settings menu you can actually see that the top is darker "blue" and the bottom is much brighter "blue" tone...
the same problem was on the Note 3 just not so visible because the menues was black toned
Mines similar too. Brighter on left hand side in portrait mode.

I don't see a reason to return it for a new one, because it on all Galaxy amoled devices.. S4, Note 3 and S5... I've had 4 Note 3 not because of faults and the all had this problem some more and some less... but it was there...
In the store I work I've seen it on all Galaxy S4 and note 3 devices... it's especially easy to see on a grey color..
on the S5 its a bit easier to se because of the color they choose for the background color in settings menu, you can actually see that on all the S5 devices I've handled including my ovn. the settings background is darker in the top and brighter at the bottom.. they all had a bit of variation..
Using the dead pixels test app, mine is evenly shaded
However, on the settings menu, the top does seem darker than the bottom. It seems samsung intended it to shade it that way

Let me start this with a picture of what's been plaguing all samsung AMOLED displays to date:

The S5's display has been lauded by many websites as a solid improvement over previous AMOLEDs.
Yet some mention a green tint, including an extensive AnandTech review.
Please share your thoughts on this if you received your device.
Yes it's still there. But not as bad as previous models.. All my note 3 Was really bad, but the s5 i Think is better and not so greenish looking tint

Wish they'd just get rid of it completely.

Hello not had an android HU before, but have an android phone and iPhone etc .
I think this screen is a bit dull in comparison, on a video it looks ok but in the flesh it’s much duller colours.
The last image is the HU own screen shot and under is the actual screen and my Galaxy for comparison.
It’s a PX5 unit.
Cheers

Its because of lower quality screen, and low resolution of the HU.. might want to apply some app for tweak.. but its normal.
Your Iphone/Samsung phones are IPS quality with like 400+ Pixel Per Inch.. compared to much lower of the HU.. <150 Pixel Per Inch.
