hello guys! i am from greece! i own an i8190 and it is a very good phone. i have two questions. after flashing latest samsung update i lost repple effect at screen lock. is there a way to have it back? and second question i saw at a mobile shop i8190 with blue lights. it was the blue model though i own white. is there a modification about this?
Samsung took out tbe ripple effect in the update but we might see it again in a later and bigger update and the reason the lights are blue on the other model is because its blue and the lights are white on the white model because its white. My bro has the blue one.

My wife is unhappy with the white on black contacts colors of the SGS - she claims it bothers her eyes because on the high contrast.
Is there any way to change this ?
a theme perhaps ?
Yeah it bothers me too, but you have to understand that it is Samsung's intention using black background to save the battery. It is the beauty of AMOLED saving battery more on darker color.

I have had my phone since November and use my screen 3-4 hours a day(or so says the battery stats) but on the lowest brightness and have not seen the slightest hint of burn in. Maybe if you use it in a dock where it is on all the time that would happen.

I'm sorry. I should have been more specific. That's my fault. I already have status bar burn-in. I just wanted to know if anything could be done about it.

Man... do I hear that!
First thought it to just make the screen completely white and leave it that way to see if it will reset ( I have no idea if it will work... Just a random thought for you to do at your own risk)
In the end you probably have no choice but to go to Samsung Service center (Someplace that can fix the screen). I figure that there is just no other way than replacing display module.
Not that this helps...but...I'll just put this here anyway.

I've been trying out "Burn-In Savior" from the Play Store and have had limited success with decreasing the contrast between the status bar and the rest of the screen. The thing is, on the Note, status bar burn-in isn't really burn-in at all. The status bar on the Note is black; which means that the majority of the pixels in the status bar region spend a great deal of time completely turned off. So, technically, the status bar doesn't get burned in at all. It's the rest of the screen that gets burned in.
So what I've been doing is using "Burn-In Savior" to rapidly age the blue subpixels in the status bar region. I'm only doing this to the blue subpixels because they're the only ones affected. They're also the ones with the shortest lifespan. The red and green subpixels show no signs of image retention whatsoever. So anyway, my plan is to rapidly age the blue subpixels in the status bar region with the hope that they'll catch up with the age of the blue subpixels throughout the rest of the display. I'll report back once I've got something to report.

Did you have any luck? I'm looking to buy an n7000 and i googled "amoled burnin n7000" and this thread popped up. Now i'm kinda scared to buy a device with no warranty that is prone to image burn in. Eek!

Burn ins happen, well, not really that often as the internet might have you think. Most user have never experienced them so don't be scared. Also, most of them happened on Galaxy S generation devices - Galaxy Note's screen is manufactured differently and is supposed to have a lot better lifespan.
It is a problem - but nothing to be terrified of.

Yes. It looks a lot better now. Don't let the post scare you off though. I loved the Note's display so much that I ended up buying the Tab 7.7 for my tablet just because it has a Super AMOLED Plus screen. I'll never buy LCD again.

maybe a real solution to the problem?
ok, i have a suggestion.
the theory is, that the leds of the displays subpixels degrade faster, the brighter (higher current) they are driven.
in almost every case, the typical elements of the start screen or home screen burn into the screen.
in theory the solution would be to degrade all other subpixels in the same amount, cause you will not be able to repair them (reverse degradation).
so my method would be:
take a screenshot of the burnt in home screen with exactly the same icons and elements that got burnt in, simply invert the screenshots colors (with paint, gimp, photoshop or some photo editing apps) and display it for some hours/days (make sure the smartphone does not get switched off automatically) and magically the effect gets equalized perfectly more and more.
(for the clock it never will work perfectly, you would have to overlay the numbers from 0 to 9 manually)
in my opinion, this could really work, but i have not tested it! because i have an lcd screen. all at your own risk. if this works, give some feedback. maybe somebody would develop some software that inverts the colors automatically or is this already possible with some screen filters? i dont know.

That's an interesting suggestion. Interestingly I found this forum because I went to the VZW to check out the GS3 and immediately got bored of it and went to the Galaxy Nexus. What I noticed of it setting on in the home screen for the past 8 months is there is very noticeable burn in on light colored scenes of the top bar and icons at the bottom.
I was shocked and immediately came back and google'd AMOLED burn in, I didn't know it was an issue. I don't think I could buy a SAMOLED phone now after seeing that. I want the Incredible 4G anyway, I like how it's smaller with the red camera and still has a beast Snapdragon S4.
I got a brand new xsp, and then I notice that I have stuck pixels,
I can see it if the background is black.. It stuck on white blue color.
Anybody have stuck or dead pixels too?
You can try your display by dialing this : *#*#7378423#*#*
Put your phone on the max brightness before doing the test.
You can inspect it on white and black background.
I will return my phone to see if I can have it exchange for a new one.
Nope, I had a Samsung phone that had a stuck (white) pixel and I went to the store and they gave me a new one

not at all. explained the situation and said i didn't notice it until i finished setting up the phone and when i went onto the browser i noticed it and just called them up. they said it shouldn't be that way and they were gonna order me another replacement. getting it tomorrow from fedex. had the option to bring to the store and getting it replaced there but didnt want to deal with the reps in the store.so i had them order it for me over the phone.
I notice if the brightness is all the way down when scrolling white text on black I see a purple tint

I see it only at boot when the AT&T logo is up. It happens to only affect the bottom part where the animated gradient is.
I'd like to have more people teat this out. Maybe a good test would be to turn the boot animation upside down somehow, and then booting it up. It could just be some glitch with it running that animation or it could also be baked into the image.

I tested using Display Tester app. Used color chart #808080 at lowest setting number 1, in a pitch dark room. The lower quarter towards the home button showed to be slightly darker. Couldn't emulate this in any other color's. Seems normal.
