For some reason. After I reboot everything is lighter colored. So instead of sark gray its light gray. Instead of a dark green hangouts icon its lime green. And its like that on everything for about 30 minutes or so...anyone know what that is?

Nvm. Turns out the wallpaper makes a difference. But the keyboard is still supper light. Almost white instead of dark gray

It's probably a power saving feature for the lcd. The contrast changes depending on how much black there is on the screen

Using this black wallpaper for the home screen made my phone snappier..Stock wallpapers much heavier i guess..However i cant use this as my lock screen wallpaper as it doesnt look as real black as i was expecting it to look like it used to on my SII. I dont know but it looks like a really really dark grey color and i see some horizontal lines appear when i touch my finger on the screen (lock screen)! Dunno if my phone's screen is problematic or if it's normal!
Download 'colors' from the market. It's free. Set to all black. It's the first thing I do on an OLED screen due to power conservation.

so to get a black background you want another app running and one that needs permission for NETWORK COMMUNICATION for FULL INTERNET ACCESS. really?

If you are referring to "colors," you can remove your tinfoil hat. I've used it for years and it's great. Nothing to worry about.
But eh, whatever. It's a fast and easy way to set to pure black X000000
I use an app called no wallpaper by Mihai Preda.

I learn a lot from you guys. I did not realize there are so many ways to do it. I now use "single color" app to set home screen and lock screen to black.
Found this on and will try as soon as I get off work!

This doesn't remove the yellow tint, simply calibrates the colours. You may be able to make the tint a little less noticeable but mines is still there on the bottom 1/3rd of the screen.

Can you please give a picture of your phone with yellow tint.
Btw, the yellow tint is because of poor calibration. so calibrating your screen should fix it..
Thanks,

Tints that affect only portions of the screen are unfixable. Color control apps alter the color of the entire screen so there will always be a portion that is missed colored if you have a phone with an uneven tint like mine.
Only thing you can do is RMA it which is what I did. I'd much rather have a full tinted phone than a half tinted one.

I searched everywhere but so far every review fails to mention the led on the phone. Is it like that one x where it has one green and orange light or is it one multi colored light?
Thanks

Only green and red.

Green on - battery fully charged
Green flashing - notification text etc
Red battery charging.
Maybe others, but those are all I have noticed

HTC deem it as a 'trademark' so you will probs never see a full RGB notification light. Which is a shame tbh.

could be multi led.so sad
That's a shame. Seems like it's the only thing missing in this beast. Too bad it won't be available here for at least another month. Thanks to everyone who answered!
Does anyone experience seeing many red pixels scattered around the screen on a black background? Whenever I use the camera app and pan over something that is dark, red pixels flash all over the black areas. Is it dead pixels?

Let me try,
Is your white really white, or your white pink toned,
I meant, the white on your display
Try to capture some white object
View it on your s3 mini display
Is it really white or pink toned
I switch a lot, unfortunately not the high end
I have a some mid range and low end smartphone
All of them is in cute category
