The screen looks like a checker board and it cant draw the color yellow to save its life. Locked boot loader and the above 2 reasons are breaking it for me...
Anyone have a differing opinion about these?
The only valid issue you've mentioned is the locked bootloader. It loads yellow just fine and the screen is great. Have you seen any of the videos?
So the Pentile display doesn't look like the Atrix checkerboard? (pretty sure it does). And I would like to see a closeup picture taken of the screen producing the color yellow. The atrix could not do this.
Let me help you out with your confusion.
Don't buy the Bionic and remove the XDA Bionic group from your favorites. Problem solved.

This guy got one last week direct from Motorola. Vid caps are done from his droid3 but you can clearly see this device is decent.
Now if you're still here just to hate on the phone, please troll elsewhere.

So you have held a lot of Bionics then? If you are so confused you should probably buy a different phone.

How do you know it looks like "checker board"?
Also, locked bootloader or not....it has already been rooted by p3droid.
And from the videos I've seen the screen looks pretty damn good.

Please watch the following video of my screen and tell me I'm not crazy for wanting to return this based on it's screen which seems to be flickering between cold and warm hues. If you watch the grey areas carefully you can see it switching between having a blue tint, to having more of a red tint.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fmraqenxno&feature=youtu.be
I'm worried that because the issue is so slight they won't accept the return, what do you guys think? Is it obvious to you? A fault is a fault right?
I found someone that also has the same problem!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-mVWkBK41I
First of all, no offense, but that video is mostly blurry.
Secondly, I think it looks fine. By all means, return 10 of them until you get the perfect unit, but it looks fine as per your grainy video. Yes I watched in 1080p.
It seems people are so over obsessive about every little bitty thing about phones these days. It looks fine to me.
Maybe u set your setting to Auto adjust screen power.
Try disable it Setting>Display>Auto adjust screen power.
See if the problem solved.
It's already disabled - thanks for the suggestion though. Why should someone put up with a screen that's changing colour temperature constantly? Secondly I'd rather not take the risk of this developing into a larger problem in six months and end up with £500 mess of a phone. Also it doesn't matter that the video is blurry is it pertains to colour not clarity. If the first video isn't clear enough take a look at the second, the problem is very obvious in that one.

Not to be rude, but just because you see some blue->red change (very slight, I couldn't even see it) on your screen, that makes the phone A MESS? Wow... Not to mention you have a 24 month warranty on it and if you have a problem with in in the next 23 months you can take it back to either get it fixed or have it replaced.
If the phone doesn't satisfy you, PLEASE return it. There is no need to post here and ask for advice if you think the phone will be a mess in a few months because of a slight color change (in your eyes, once again, I didn't see it). You should do what you think best. I really don't think you should take people's opinions into account if you believe your phone will not satisfy you. It's a personal choice.
I for one LOVE this phone! It's the greatest phone I've had since my SGSII lol.

Not to be rude, but read more carefully. I never said the colours currently make the phone a mess. I said that what is initially a small problem could turn into a larger one in time - why would anyone in their right mind take such a risk by not returning? The secondary reason I posted is because I thought others might have similar problems - and indeed they do, and now we have a thread relating to this SPECIFIC screen problem. It's documented, it's not useful to you, but it might be to one of the other people that will inevitably experience the same problem.
Upgrade to the kl7 update if it is available over the air. It will fix the hue problem in changing colour when scrolling. This way you still have warranty. If it doesn't work return the unit.

Mad? Not at all! I find it funny, that's all. If I am not satisfied with my phone, I'd return it. I wouldn't look to others to help me with it. Not to mention, we can't know how it will be in 6 months because no one has had this phone that long to know if it will turn into something more serious.

From the screen issues thread there are a multitude of different issues, ranging from black blocks in videos, banding, changing in hues of colors (which a lot of people are claiming has disappeared in the newest KL7 rom just released), etc. It's a very generic thread only specific to the screen itself.
Regardless, I understand your point. I'm sure a lot of people will find it helpful. All I was implying is that if YOU are not happy with the phone then YOU should return it. I personally didn't see much of a change in your videos, but if it's something that bugs you, then you should return it! No one can tell you how it will evolve because no one has had this phone for more than 2 months. So in 18 it could be the worst experience ever, or it could be exactly the same, or it could get fixed with software enhancements. I don't know. Sorry if it sounded as if I were mad, or offensive, it wasn't my intention. All I wanted to express was that if you weren't happy with it, then you should do what makes YOU comfortable, and not what others say here.
i used it today and its def not worth it. Screen looks the same. It was actually a little slow and idk i prefer the amaze a lot more. Switch isnt worth it
Esp since ics our phone feels faster than the one s which is sad
even tho with roms itll be faster
I tried out the one s today and its a fantastic phone, but not having expandable store is a no go for me, not to mention the lack of a menu button is hard to get used to *seriously*
I do have to say its butter smooth and the sense 4.0 features are nice but not worth the switch for me.
Edit; was blown away by the quality of the screen though, perfect black scales and no lag

I played with the 1S today too. I was doing speed test to load certain pages and the Amaze kept up and at certain times was faster. The non-expandable storage is a negative for me too. The phone felt nice, screen was nice and all but like others have said, its not worth upgrading it from the Amaze.
Wait....I sent this with Tapatalk?

Yeah... i dont know what the OP is talking about. must have been playing with a defect or something lmao.
never, ever judge a phone by a display model.. those phones are on 24/7 and pretty much never get rebooted (which you need to do every once in a while on android).
the screen on the one s is FAR superior than the amaze screen. talking about colors, viewing angles, and visible outdoors.

I just did a full upgrade with TMO.... I initially wanted the One X but TMO US doesn't carry it. And none of my lines qualify for any upgrade, but TMO US was very nice and gave me a courtesy full upgrade I took the plunge.....
Now I have both Amaze in ICS and One S. And my Amaze is 2 weeks old since I had them replace it when I dropped it.
I'll post comparisons once I get the One S. For the courtesy and full upgrade price, I was not able to resist the urge.
But in no way am I letting go of the Amaze, it's such an awesome phone especially now we have ICS leaked out.

Short Story:
----------------
Yesterday I bought Google Nexus from my local MacMall (Chicago), and I was pretty stoked. The first thing I noticed upon opening it was that the box had been re-sealed. Then I tried to turn it on and the battery was dead. I thought that was kind of unusual, but not unheard of. Then I charged it and turned it on...
Below are pictures describing what I saw. I am going to exchange the device this afternoon. I was wondering if anyone has ever seen something like this and would anyone be interested in playing around with this ROM. I would imagine it is a proprietary ASUS build, but they sold it to me so it's mine now. I would be happy to post a link to the ROM, but I don't know how to extract it. (I'm sure there is a post explaining that, please direct me to it).
Here are links to the pictures:
There is a weird bar at the top:
moworldenterprises(dot)com(slash)Testing(slash)Nexus(slash)SS01.jpg
Here is the version info:
moworldenterprises(dot)com(slash)Testing(slash)Nexus(slash)SS02.jpg
Here are some of the testing apps:
moworldenterprises(dot)com(slash)Testing(slash)Nexus(slash)SS03.jpg
The serial number is all 1's:

let me know if you want me to post any other information/pictures about the device.

sweet, hopefully there is something useful
Do NOT return this! This is a very good find! Maybe if you could unlock the bootloader and make a Nandroid backup in CWM...
Perhaps stick it on ebay as a Buy It Now for the price it would cost you to order another one...
That way if it is truly interesting to someone, they have to opportunity of putting up (or shutting up).
No do not unlock it yet, it will erase everything. Do a system image dump. There is a toolkit in the developers section. Post it in there.
Also i noticed its running ICS
Don't send it back yet, let the devs get what they need

I thought someone here might want this, but I have to return it today (it is for my wife). I'm "good with puters" so I can follow instructions well, but I've never rooted or jailbroken anything in my life. I'm at work so I don't have lots of time to search forums for the proper instructions. If someone really wants this, you have about two hours to post instructions for me to backup or image or whatever it is called a copy of this ROM before I return it. I'll check back every five.
I am downloading the Root Toolkit now

I'm not really sure what you mean by "raise issues or faults". It's hard to show, but when I drag my finger accross the screen, it draws a line with many dots and H and V coordinate lines. That was a horrible description. Basically, it looks like it is mapping the touchscreen feedback and then rendering a line. The line quickly disappears. The white and red boxes at the top of the screen acually have numbers written on them and those numbers change as you touch the screen. There is also like a red Frame the flashes on the screen when I select an app. I will try to post some some pictures/maybe a video. My phone sucks though so the quality wont be that good.

It appears to have test apps not included in AOSP.
You should try to cold boot to recovery from the bootloader and see if it'll go without being hooked up to a computer. Maybe the bootloader is different than production.
Can't he try flashing the stock rom over this? If there are no hardware faults, why risk getting one that might be defective?

I had no issues reported in previous threads..
-yellow screen? Nope.
-Rattling? - Nope
- Crickling noise with earpiece? Nada
UPDATE: The crickling noise is actually there, but its so damn minimal I can't even hear it from an inch away in the most muted environment. I personally believe it isn't a hardware defect, because since it is a speaker, I would expect a small amount of static noise to slip through. Overall, I can't hear it while I'm on the phone, or when the phone is OFF, so if anything its software that's triggering it.
If you SEARCH for an issue, you will find it
But why bother to, if in the end your just going to complain?
Still pretty damn happy beyond believe with this device. Regardless of the smallest OCD issues reported in this forum.
Just a heads up for people who got confirmation emails last night, and is expecting a phone today! Looks like (well atleast to me) the problems aren't there.. Or maybe I'm just extremely lucky.

If I were you, I would loop a video for like half an hour and see whether it improves. I also got similar things on my Xperia S and it's actually fairly common if the LCD is new or it has not been used for a long time. I looped a video with a lot of action and moving scenes for about half an hour and now it's perfect.

can you please give me your APN setting? i am with ATT and only getting H.
Had a n6 with half purple screen and had it exchanged.
This new one is horrible ..
It seems to get really warm compared to the other and when it does, boy does it lag. Just typing this out, it's lagging.
I also noticed that my Bluetooth has "silence" spots while listening to music. Every 2-3 minutes, it will stop for a split second like it can't buffer, even if the music is on the device.
Another thing that may just be me, it seems the keyboard doesn't predict as well, like it's not even touching the keys I'm swiping.
Lastly, half the screen is white and half is a really yellow color. Very irritated by this device. Makes me want to throw it against a wall.
Your first problem can be resolved by using a custom kernel that does not use mpdecision. Mpdecision is known to be power inefficient and sends your CPU to be sitting in wasteful frequencies causing your phone to generate additional heat. My phone became really warm with mpdecision on.
Secondly, I don't use bluetooth so I can't comment.
Third. That isn't a N6 problem, its a problem with the software of the keyboard application that you're using. SwiftKey works great for me.
Fourth, can't really comment on that. My screen looks good, your phone should be uniformly the same color, you can try changing RGB and see if it would do anything. I recommend turning off adaptive brightness.
Good suggestions I suppose.
Only problem with those, I'm not gonna root or use a custom kernel. The last n6 only had a faulty screen and no other problems. That one didn't need any custom root activities.

Only problem with those, I'm not gonna root or use a custom kernel. The last n6 only had a faulty screen and no other problems. That one didn't need any custom root activities.

If you don't root, or use ROM's then why post about it on a developer forum? I'm not trying to be rude just wondering why here. If it has more issue call moto and have them send a new one. My RMA phone is fine 0 issues so far and I'm happy with it.
This is a user forum as well as a developer forum.
I'm posting here to show there is problems with these phones.
Why does it matter to you?
If you are having those problems on stock, and don't want to root/etc, then your only option is to return it again. Pretty simple.
If you are looking for confirmation that your experience isn't 'normal' on the stock phone, I can confirm it is not.

I'm not trying to argue at all I was just curious. I would have the phone replaced if you want to gave those issues fixed without modifying the phone. Best of luck with the issues because it's not fun when you can't fix them.

I scratch my head also. XDA is a developer's forum. There are tons of other sites more suitable to those not wanting to root/ROM it up.
Sounds good. Let's discuss dbrand skins and the such.
I doubt this has anything to do with memory leaks or anything that's been discussed on lollipop.
I'd say you have a faulty SOC and I would replace it. My wife had similar issues on an S5 where it would stutter and fall behind almost and get warm. The icing on the cake was while taking video, normal 1080p video, and it would drop frames like crazy. Maybe 22fps or so was al, it was getting.
I actually agree with 20degrees on this one... There are tons of non development/customization threads on here, and XDA has a pretty knowledgeable user base so it is a convenient one stop shop for info.
People just need to ignore/keep their comments to themselves in the Q&A and general sections if they have nothing constructive to add to the topic of the thread.
