I have this problem with my screen that when i watch my screen directly white is more yellow or "creme" than white but when i tilt the phone up aown left right white turns white. I just wonder if that is good reson enough to exhance my note to new or get refound? And how do i show it to those warranty guys?
ps. no matter if use dynamic normal or movie the white is yellowish. And no screen adjust or power savior are on. And its also doesnt depend on screen brigthness. It looks yellowish at full and min and all in between...
I love the screen and cant buy smaller but is this hardware or software and are every one a little defected? I mean do i have to change 5 times to get good screen?
I could live with the withe but because i dont have black clipping ect so is it worthy to try change? Or does ics fix this?

No it wont but having a little yellowish screen is not the only thing that can go wrong whit note screen black crash , clipping dead pixels..
Sure you can send phone 40 times to repair or change but every time you end up with out a phone for days or weeks so the point is that if you buy a phone it should work without trying 10 phones untill it works like it should.. (And no i do not own iPhone)
Are you sure that the screen mode is on "Standard" and not "Movie" ?

ive bought 4 and all 4 are just fine... and pretty much what you said had nothing to do with what i said...
I just got my Nexus 7 tablet today and installed an XO screen protector, by the book. It works fine for the longest time no issues. Then all of a sudden as the tablet was locked, I picked up and unlocked it and the screen was faded very badly. Like it was almost white as you can see with the 3 screenshots below that look faded. Then after about 10 minutes the colors come back.
I purchased from Sam's club with the warranty. Should I take it back for an exchange immediately? If I do this I lost the $20 XO Skin cover I now have installed on the device. Some may ask if the screen protector could be causing the fade. I guess it could be but why would it then come back later? Should I just power it down and wait for a day to see if its just an anomaly?
Both Good and Bad pictures attached below, should be fairly obvious which are good and which are bad.
Please HELP.
It's not your screen protector, I bought mine from the Google Play Store and has the same issue... Its very annoying :-S

Thanks for validating that its not the screen protector. I hope soon who knows these screens better than me can explain why its happening. I think I need to take it back and exchange.
Im trying to get a replacement from Google but lines are way too busy...
Contact XOSkins and see if you can exchange. They may honor the normal warranty exchange of you paying shipping both ways. You send the old one back, they send you a new one.

Really? On what basis do I ask for this? Do I just call and tell them my tablet went bad after I placed the skin on it?
Thanks a ton. BTW I don't know if you have the gray cover Google was selling with the N7 but it is AWESOME. Very sleek and snug to the device and feels solid for a cover. But no magnet
I'm having the same problem on my tablet. Really frustrating

Any luck?
I have been working on some other things and have now noticed that it takes about 5 minutes for the color to fully restore the color. When I first wake the tablet it is extremely cloudy and washed out to the point the colors are barely visible. Then slowly the colors return over about a 5 minute period.

Any luck on the replacement? I think I am going to take mine in tomorrow to Sams and see what they say. If they give me trouble I did purchase the warranty bout I am hoping that Sams will just replace it with a new one.

They do have a warranty for scratched or torn screen protectors. I don't know if they'll cover it if you applied the skin and had to get a warranty replacement for the device. I would Peel it off right before you send the nexus back and check with XO.
Also, someone else found that this may be caused by some special function of the tegra 3 that causes movies to have truer color, yet washes out the screen when done with the video. It might be a software issue.

I finally got in touch with Google last night (35min hold), they are sending me a replacement. You should get one too, that behavior is not normal...

Mine just started doing this today. Anyone sent theirs back for a replacement?
Sucks cuz I live in Japan.
Also, once the screen protector answer was given that, no, it's not your protector, why were there 10 answers about replacing the damn screen protectors?

Mine is on its way back for replacement.
Google didn't even question me about it or try do any troubleshooting. Just sent an RMA email and UPS label email to me.
Makes me believe that they know about this issue and just go ahead and send a new one out.

Guy guys it's not your tablet your wasting your time sending it back it's confirmed as a tegrachip problem there is a fix on this forum but you need root.Your find your replacements will be the same just have to try the fix or sit tight and wait for google to address the problem via ota update sometime soon.
I tried the "fix". Didn't work. Google didn't even try to get me to troubleshoot. I told them the issue with a pic attached and got the RMA instructions back. They know there's a problem and they are not trying to help anyone fix it.

I like the display but noticed a difference in color. I'm not sure if its because I'm comparing it to my one x. I want to try the "fix" but I'm holding off a little to see whether Google sends out an ota soon.

Got my RMA'd Nexus back today. Rooted already and tried a YouTube video. No problems at all. Yet.

Umm mine does this.. Noticeably after playing the included transformers video, the screen will be faded for around 10 seconds.
I'm inclined to think it's a Tegra 3 problem. I remember reading about 6 months ago that the upcoming Tegra 3 chip was meant to dynamically adjust the backlight while playing videos, for power saving.
It's probably just this backlight adjustment system glitching up and not knowing what to do after a movie is exited. Doesn't really explain why it's happening for sleep wakes though
Edit:
Managed to find the exact article I read, was longer than 6 months ago lol.
The technology is called DIDIM and Jen-Hsun described how it works. “It’s the ability to per pixel, per frame, per scene to modulate the backlight so quickly that we over a long period of time, reduce the amount of backlight intensity and backlight energy by nearly half. We save as much power in the backlight without changing the visual fidelity at all to save, essentially, the entire power used by our chip.” NVIDIA says your eyes see the same color temperature, so you can’t tell the difference.

As the title says.... screen is broken. Display still works, but touch screen is shot...
I dropped it and hoped it was like most touch devices and the touch screen still worked..... but no luck.
Any suggestions?

Unfortunately, you'll have to buy a whole new screen assembly or have ASUS replace it. Which will cost around 150 usd if you do it yourself. Shame on Google for such poor support...
Oh man I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe check radio shack they sold some, its possible they have some service... Don't quote me on that though.
Radio shack here has a sign on the door says they fix screens. Worth a shot.
You could always buy another n7 on Craigslist. Then you would have spare parts, battery etc. Could be cheaper than fixing yours.
My kid dropped her phone and now the screen does this. Thank you in advance and merry Christmas!

To try and replace that on your own would be nuts with this phone.
**edit** proof: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/HTC+One+Teardown/13494
You need a new LCD. You'll have to buy a combined LCD+digitizer. It'll run around $70-$80. Check phonepartsusa.com. Repair is going to be ridiculously hard, and don't attempt to do so if you lack the proper tools.

*edit*
Just noticed your pictures aren't even of a One. Good luck. Same thing still applies, however.

K^ That. The digitizer is just the clear layer that registers touches, it doesn't actually display anything, that is solely the LCD panel of which yours is broke. While a digitizer is always cheap it's usually good practice to buy a combo just because of what a pain it is to replace JUST the digitizer.
But, that doesn't even matter because your screen is broke.and you need a new LCD. If you want to risk replacing it for this phone, God speed. It's notoriously impossible to tinker in.
EDIT: oohhh, you have an EVO 3D, Not a One, much easier to tinker in and I've actually done it a few times without issue but the screen might be more expensive since its a 3D panel. You'd be better off just replacing the phone then, honestly.

Was gonna say the same thing. I don't repair these professionally, but do it often for friends and co-workers. I'm having trouble figuring out what kind of device that is; It isn't a ONE, an EVO 4G LTE, or 1x, so I can't get you a price quote. But, I do know that these days, the screen assembly is one piece; it is possible to get a digitizer by itself, I suppose, but taking the device apart will be difficult enough without trying to remove the screen from the rest of the assembly. To me, it looks like an entire replacement is needed anyway. Long story short, probably be easier to get a new device, like the other guys said.....
Is that an EVO 3D? Oh god, the memories. I'm agreeing with others that it'd be easier to just get a new phone. However, if you really wanna try and replace it, this will be what you need.

ouch my nexus7 it slid off my bed apparently. I didnt see how it fell, it was in a case but it didnt save it. I heard the thud, turned and feared the worse. it goes across the screen so its rather large.
its the 2012 32 gb version. Is it fixable??? most of the screen doesnt work, i can touch the notification area and it responds, but no where else, so it is basically inoperable. I google some stuff about replacing the digitizer or the screen? or both? how would i know what I need?
on another note, its the 2012 version and i could probably use an upgrade on the 2014 or whatever the new one is. But i definitely would like to repair this and get a new one. I hate having to let go of stuff like this and would like to repair it.
Check out on ebay you have to change the glass, digitizer and lcd (too risky to change the glass+digitizer) its fairly easy. You can check outr some teardown on google too and youtube. Good luck

My wife's n7 had a similar problem, but it's one of my children that stepped on it lol, it was going to cost £160 for Asus to fix it and the tablet only cost £200 brand new at the time so I just got some insurance on it from currys for £3 a month then got them to fix it lol

hmm thats a nice idea, i might find something like that locally here. well I ended up going on craigslist and looking at local ads of nexus 7, and I saw someone selling a nexus 7 16gb for $100. I emailed and asked if it was still available and how firm they were. They replied saying they can let it go for 80 if I come right now. I just returned about an hour ago with a 16gb nexus 7. I am currently in the process of rooting with a rom as my 32gb was. I still wanna fix my 32gb so I will try this idea or something similar.
Take the screen of the 16gb one and put it on the 32

Check out square trade for a warranty as well. I've heard good things about them
So this would work with square trade? The idea of getting insurance on my nexus even though it is already broken?
Yeah if they don't ask to see it your fine

How is it fraud, I asked currys if they needed to see the tablet and they no because it was less than a year old they didn't ask if it had a broken screen and I've still got the insurance so there getting there money back anyway so think before accusing people of fraud
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
Its fraud because it was suggested above that insurance gets placed on the device AFTER there has been damage to the device. It was suggested that the insurance company wouldn't verify the condition...it's exactly what it sounds like...fraud.
