There are some issues with black/grey gradients in certain conditions, the question is if what you have is typical or worse,
I'd suggest searching the forum for "black crust", and checking the thread on Galaxy Note screen issues

I noticed it but only after you mentioned it. I dont know if its burn marks but I think the notifaction bar is still active in the backround.
Also noticed on a vibrant. But it was much more faint. U can see in various apps and colors

Camera problem. help please!

Hello, I am experiencing something word with my camera. I'm not really sure if we consider it a hardware problem or something.As you can see, there are purple lines that appear on my pictures.. Why is this? Second question, can I get my phone replaced because of this problem?
P.s. I used to experience this in my blackberry storm 1 after a few years. Attaching photos. 1 st photo was taken with my Note and the second was with my storm.

Do you notice the same banding effect on your phone if you use Gallery or browse the net? In low light conditions the striped effect has been reported by many other Note users - search for "banding" and you'll see what I mean
I do notice the effect but only when in low light - if the screen is set to higher brightness the banding effect goes away. So maybe it is not camera related but more to do with the screen?

Okay, I'll read up on banding later on. I tried turning up the brightness on full and took a test shot and still, there were those lines. I kind of noticed that this banding happens more for whites than low lighting conditions.
Thanks by the way!

Simple test would also be to transfer the photo to your PC and see if it shows banding there? (I am probably wrong but assuming you used screenshot feature of Note to take screen captures?)
PS - don't just say it - hit the Thanks button
Sorry I'm new here. there you go.
Anyway I'm not yet home so have no access yet to my PC. Got to chat and show what's wrong with a photographer friend. he told me that this is a common problem due to the fluorescent light. True enough,I tried some low light shots under a different light bulb and no banding. I was quite convinced and so I'll continue trying to do tests.

[Q] Screen banding

I've had my RAZR i a few weeks now and on certain screens, vertical banding is clear from top to bottom when in portrait. It's more noticeable on screens with solid colors. For example, the blue screen when Facebook is loading and the grey screen when My Apps page is loading on Google Play. Its not excessive, but is visibly there.
Is this normal for the screen? Are other people seeing this light banding, or is this just my phone? I don't see the same banding on my old Nexus One.
I'm not seeing this on my RAZRi. Just checked it on both apps you mentioned

Green tint all over screen!

Hey there,
This morning when i turned on my Note the screen had a green tint! I can see and read everything but it 's all greenisch..
Help!

I had the same twice, just rebooted and it was gone. Maybe that helps you to.

If youre on a jb rom, theres a bug which google are aware of with auto tint whereby it still automatically changes hue even when unselected. Should be fixed in next release.

no pun intended, just had to say, your phone has turned the Grinch lol.
Spyders right
For me, the screen goes reddish, bluish, greenish all the time which is annoying specially on bright colours.
I don't know what exactly is going on.
Any solution ??

[REQ] Dark apps to save screen power

Hi all
I have done a little searching the last week to find apps which have been modified to be dark. The reason is that with our lovely AMOLED displays chewing 60% of power and unlike LCD displays, only the colour pixels chew power. Pure black requires no power so the darker the screen the less power it will use.
Being able to invert white to black on web pages would be handy. And other apps like eBay doing the same would also save a lot.
I figure we'd save about 20% of battery doing this.
Are there any places to find such modified apps?

Search about justun bean inverted Gapps here on xda. It's a packet of some apk (Gapps also) blacked.... It's not sure they will work with your rom, so before to install them (by recovery) do a nandroid backup!
The only app I miss until now, is a blacked Facebook messenger

The problem with this device is that the darker the application is, the more black clipping we'll notice.

Nah, you can see the black clipping issue only if you watch a video. I used a lot of times totally dark rom (like asylumPhoenix) with totally dark app (like justun). There wasn't any sign of black clipping
I just noticed it during a video (mostly) or watching a particular pic (rarely)
Well when i use aosp based JB roms and i pull out the notifications, the blackclipping gets very noticeable and annoying. Anyway, my device's blackclipping is beyond usual limits so i'm taking it to the service.
