I dont have G-Flex yet, but on my old Galaxy S, I was able to calibrate the screen with an app called voodoo color. I hope there is a screen adjuster app for the G-flex too or i hope ther will be
I dont have the blu tint anymore ever since the kk update

Never noticed it when i had jb but there were some users that had it and exchanged their phones. I guess there is a handfull out there. Might want to look at the early threads.

I have a LG G Flex and my screen has the blue tint. It is especially noticeable on the top part of the screen and is blotchy blue. The bluish tint goes along the top of screen towards the right of screen about a quarter way down . Other than the bluish blotchy area I described ,the rest of the screen is white.
My phone is set at 50% brightness. At 100% brightness the blueish tint isn't as dark and is barely noticeable.
I have read of others having same issue. If you Google it you will read lots of complaints about the bluish tint in different areas of screen from the top to the bottom.
I bought my phone about 7 days ago at Best Buy.
I had upgraded to Android 4.4.2 on At&t. I Had considered possibly exchanging it for another one but I think bluish tint may be normal.

Wow that's strange. I'm absolutely positive that there's a lot of screen variances between these devices. The G Flex on display in my T-Mobile store had an extremely grey look to it, even on 100% brightness. My screen isn't like that, although it's not as white as an LCD, I'm extremely happy with it.
I just took these 2 pictures with my Nexus 5, one with the flash off and another with the flash on.
agreed; I have had 3 gflex's; the first 2 were perfect white screens, no ghosting; my current one is bad, lots of blue tint, and lots of ghosting..
Yours looks way better than mine. I wonder if I should take mine back. I'm worried I might get one that's even worse than my current phone... Thanks for posting the pictures!!?

unfortunately, thats the risk you take; if you are within your "in store" return period, you could go back to the store and check your replacement out before you take it home, but if you are past that time period, its a roll of the dice..
I'm still within the return period. I might return it on Saturday, which will be day 14 of my return period.
It's a shame, I like the phone and have it set up the way I like it.
The Bluish Screen issue is a bit of concern . I don't know what causes it . I don't know if it will worsen or lead to a future total Screen Failure.
I'm a bit disappointed in Lg though.
I believe they need to work on their quality control and testing before they ship out devices that have an obvious screen defect.
Thanks.

Take it back and check the new phone before you swap to see if the white is white.

Well sort of. My phone has a really really blue tint to it. I'm not sure what it is but no reds nor yellow colors can't be seen. The yellow looks really green. As for the red it looks really dark red somewhat blackish. Tried replacing the amoled 3 times. Still same.

Try settings-> cyanogenmod-> interface-> render effect, and play about with the settings there.
I did that already. Lol its on no effect and its blue! I put it on night mode which is red. The screen turns super dark. Almost a black color.

I know I ordered my 4th amoled display hopefully it works!
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
You ordered a 4th screen? It's obviously not the screen. But the controller or something else wrong with the hardware or just the connection to the screen itself.
The chances of the first replacement having the exact same problem is pretty low, but 3 screens all acting the exact same means the screen is working perfectly. Replacing it again will not fix it.
My original amoled display ribbon ripped so I ordered another from China. That's when it was blue. maybe its not original although it states it is

Yup. I actually sent my replacement back, and kept my original which has a very tight slider. The replacements screen was blurry, and dull. Moto needs more quality control on the screens. I cant believe the varying differences.
Yeah both on auto brightness. But the difference is huge no matter what. The other looks much better in all conditions..oh well.
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium
The screens are very different. I've noticed 2 drastically different types. One is blue tinted, and you can't see the grid pattern, but it ghosts badly. There's a more accurate screen with yellow-ish whites and it ghosts far less, but you can see an odd grid pattern and lines on the screen. My first 3 had the blue tinted screen. My 4th one right now has a very nice screen-it ghosts far less and colors are more accurate. But, everything has a noticeable grid pattern over it.
Interesting thank you

I am using my note for 9 months now. I want to know if i have dead pixels in tge oled display by now and if there are such dead pixels how to identify them????

You'd see them as blue, red or green spots or possibly black.

Ideally you can do this in e. g. a picture editing app, to check for anomalies in different colours. But that may be over the top

takes you to LCT test and use red green and blue to test any black pixels during the color display.
usually i have seen a lot of notes with one or 2 pixels not working mainly on the red and green sides
Thanks all, there is one more thing i want to know, how much is the normal age of oled??? I mean what is its fate? I always thought that its the best display but knowing that its pixels burn with use made me a little worried. I dont think its a good news for most of us.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
I don't know exactly figures but amoled being organic has a reduced lifetime compared to oled. There are also factors to consider such as direct sunlight, so if you're in a sunny place unlike Britain, you're screen will error out more rapidly.

Blue LED tend to deteriorate faster than red and green.
I got my one from best buy, last night I noticed that when the screen is on, on the lower left side part of the screen is a little brighter, it's about half inch in diameter, it seems like the screen is being pressed, bc if I press the screen myself a little lower, it goes away and the same thing happens where im currently pressing. The is also a small bright dot right in the middle of the screen, which also is only noticesable with s black background.
And last thing, I don't know if this is normal, but the touch screen is not accurate at all

Black. No matter what don't get white. It is a less sift touch material in the back and the white front looks cheap and shows too much contrast on the screen. My black phone is forever amazing me because the screen looks peeled to the edge. A much better experience IMHO

I actually got white but I am contemplating returning for the black. I actually like the white front because it doesn't show fingerprints and lint as much as the black one my co-worker has. At the same time, the back is much more comfortable and provides a better grip on the black version. I'm just trying to decide if it's worth the 35 dollar restocking fee or if I should just stick with white.
Not worth paying but you can yell about the phone glitching or something and get a new one.
