White background. Try a diff wallpaper. White really shows it off on mine.

Isn't this just an issue with the contrast capability of the hardware? If so you cannot fix this other than changing the background or colour I believe.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe this banding is in the Liberty rom, so its a blur thing? I was hoping there was a mod to flash and fix it. Looks like its just a transparent layer gone wrong

Agreed....if it was just an issue with the pentile screen it wouldn't reproduce in the screen shot.

I've been stumbling on some bugs on the n4 recently and decided to start taking screen shots.
I never realised any bugs to date until I read a comment " come on Google fix the bugs I don't even notice" in a thread on here about updates. Then I started to look for them !
Some are quite hard to replicate though and many of you might think these bugs are rather pointless but I do think that key lime pie will be a good polish on the os.
I'll start posting all of them as I've just ignored them to date.
The one I just came across now was the blue bar in the notification menu doesn't always glow blue.

Yes there is a way though to get the bar grey when you use two fingers then one then two and some how it will auto magically be grey when you are pressing down.
There are other bug quirks that I've come across and will post screen shots as they happen again.
Re: Post your bug screensho
Edit: try this. Two fingers scroll the notification down (half way down the scrub will suffice) keeping two fingers on screen scroll back up till it disappears then repeat until it goes grey
Hello i noticed that the screen has bright sides on the sides of screen. It doesnt affect when i send pictures to other devices or post on facebook. I noticed this since i first bought my SGS.

Could just be a defective screen, samsung are notorius for bad quality control with there monitors, things like tints because of the way glue drys. A picture would help us but if its a defective screen you gonna have to take it to samsung.
Btw heres the pic i took from my other phone.

Yeah, you probably looking at a defective screen, I can see what you are talking about. I would rma it if it bothers you enough.
Question:
Does it go away if you decrease the brightness or use auto brightness

No, it doesn't go away, but it follows the brightness settings when i decrease it or use auto brightness however, the sides are always brighter.
Yeah, looks to me like its defective. I
Anyone having this problem with one side of the screen being brighter? Very noticeable on Grey's and some blues.

Every Samsung AMOLED screen is like that.
My galaxy s3 and note 2 were not like that

Hmmm...I was laying in bed last night streaming some videos because I couldn't sleep. I think I would have noticed something like that on the black loading page...I recall everything was of uniform brightness. I'll have to check again later & specifically look for it. However, I'm incredibly anal about that kind of stuff so I think it would have stuck out like a sore thumb.
I have a Charcoal Grey unit, by the way.
Opened up Chrome to that blank screen like you did and mine looks normal. I was thinking perhaps it was just a viewing angle sort of problem, but every angle I tried looked the same...normal. Not sure what could be causing that for you.

We've come a long way with display technology and bad displays are a lot more rare than they used to be, but a bad one still will slip through from time to time. A trip down to the local AT&T store to swap it out for a new one will fix the problem.
As stated I have a leak on my right bottom corner only shows when capacity button is on. can i get it replaced at the store or have to wait ?

Damn that's bad. You sparked me to look at mine, which is fine. You should definitely swap that device.
No one at the stores nearby has it.
The capacitive buttons are annoying in the dark. Bright too. I personally disable mine.
Menu buttons on my white model are like on your pic. I think phone I build that way. Black model may not have that problem buy there are horizontal lines on both menu buttons. Maybe one day someone write mod to dim menu buttons

Look at the bottom right corner, not the capacity buttons
Noticed there are dots on the display the run symmetrically up and across the screen. They are faint but when in direct sunlight they shimer sort of and it's a little annoying. Cant notice in regular lighting. Anyone else notice this or should I try to send back?
I have this too

I have this too, i do not think it is a defect and i do not have any problems with the lines and dots. You should speak to a sony representative and ask them what it is.
I probably should have done a google search before posting. Seems like it is the digitizer. Grid patterns thats how the touch screen works. It's normal. I guess I need to stop being a little girl about this phone.lol

@Notchr302 I noticed it too the other night at a store. Because of the configuration I figured it was the digitizer but I have never seen one so obvious.
