[Q] Please help me decide if my screen is flawed (dark colors turns dark green) - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please look at the picture http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/3360/img4165kv.jpg.
It shows my desktop wallpaper on SGS1 on the left and SGS2 on the right. The top left part of the wallpaper looks fine on SGS1 but it turns ugly dark green on SGS2. Please notice that the other colors (pink, light green etc) look very similar on both devices. I set the brightness on both devices on equal level. My SGS2's screen displays like this only dark colours, bright colours are fine. Similar thing happens in AOSP/CM9/10 settings panel to dark grey gradients - it turns kinda dark green and ugly.
Here's another example: http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/4066/img4166a.jpg. AnTuTu background on the SGS1 (left) doesn't look so dark.
Am I the only one experiencing the issue? Do your devices display equally bad dark colours as mine? Could you post photos of your CM9/10 settings panel or AnTuTu's main screen?

[Q] How to solve amoled burn-in? (idea)

Hi, mine sgs2 has upper part of the display "burned" by the status bar.
I put in brackets burned because I think that it's more accurate call it just a non uniform degradation. In fact I see this fault when I'm in landscape with white background. The effect is a shadow of the status bar with a colder white, and the rest display with a warmer white color temp.
You think that running for a few hours at full brightness a full screen image like this can balance the deterioration between "status bar" leds and "rest of display" leds? maybe a flashing RGB animation!
If I have not explained well please ask me fot clarification

[Q]Screen Inverted/white?

Hello,
I was using my TFP today and all of a sudden the screen has gone mad. All blacks are white all color is gone. It sort of looks like all the colors have been inverted and then the contrast went to 0 with the brightness at 100x. (where the screen looks like this on any brightness) Anyone seen this before and know how to fix it?
It's not in inverted color mode to help color blinded people since most text is not even visible.

Sounds like a hardware defect; however, the picture you shared looks like the black line is just a UI element of that particular app.
Could you share more pictures?

yes it's part of the app but if i hide ui the screen becomes all gray but the black line a leaves white or lighter shade of gray line that slowly disappear after few seconds.
this happens even while browsing the internet and using apps white or light gray shades lines appear in other parts of the screen if i suddenly change the background to gray like my home screen.
it's like the pixels are delayed when changing from dark black colors to gray. now i changed my wallpaper to default so i don't notice it.
i tried to take pictures but i's not noticeable, my old phone camera it's not good.

Ghosting issue ? ?

So is it pretty obvious , or does ghosting usually happens on low brightness on every AMOLED display or is this phone only suffering from this ?
(I saw ghosting while I was horizontally scrolling a black picture of a gray background).
Can anyone confirm this for me ? ( Not a huge issue though , it doesn't happen after the brightness is increased)
Try with this image in lowest brightness
Zoom in and move it left and right you will see a trail of weird color trailing the black circle.
its normal for amoled displays
almost all amoled screen leave purple trails when switching from pitch black to some other color pixels.. don't worry about it
Ya when scrolling in app drawer the icons looks like wobbling.
Yes this has been the case in my Realme XT as well. When you have black background in the app drawer and there is any app icon that is dark you see the icons changing their shape while we scroll.
Even in YouTube when you turn on the Dark Mode and there is any video that is pitch black you may see it leaving a trail when you scroll through the feed. This is more often when screen is in low brightness. Is this issue for all other phones with Amoled panel or only with Realme XT ?
Amoled panels basically has the lowest response time in any display technology format except "Ink Display". Every individual pixel lights up individually from switch off (black) to on (any color). Higher the brightness means higher the color spectrum shining into your eyes and thus it let you see no ghosting while at peak brightness. It's still happening but we dont usually see that clearly. Ghosting is very natural phenomenon of Amoled technology. Also these budget Amoled panel tends to big fan of burn out. So make sure you are using live wallpaper that changes or moves (stock one that comes with the ColorOS is good enough).

Display artifacts and noise at low brightness and dark grey colors

Hello. I have a question regarding the display of dark grey at low brightness. Noticed this using the google web page in dark mode before going to sleep with all other lights dimmed or off.
I also noticed some burnt in segments of the screen like nav bar and status bar at the conditions described above.
I am attaching the dark grey filled image I use to distinguish the problem. Can you please test it with your S21 in dark conditions and fullscreen and tell me if you see same noise and smudge-like artifacts?
I must say I tried to go to BestBuy and Target to compare it to other S21 by myself, but obviously it didn't work because there are too many light sources in the store and it's too bright to see that.
I also tried to make a photo of what I am seeing in completely dark room, but obviously it's less informative compared to human eye.
Thank you.

Maybe I am not very discerning but screenshot_* shows no anomalies on my S21. The file_000 however does have a visual imperfection. It's the file itself and not the screen because the "smudgy" area moves as I scroll and grows when I zoom. So it's an artifact of the file. It does have some subtle grey coloring.

The File_000 has anomalies because it's a photo of a screen producing artifacts, when the Screenshot is just filled grey and should be clean of any artifacts on a healthy screen. I must say when I open the Screenshot using gallery and in fullscreen, and try to move it left or right until previous or next image border shows in the gallery, I can see the artifacts and smudges remain static because it's screen defect but the image (screenshot) is clear of any imperfections. Thank you for trying though.
It is normal since a few years, Xiaomi since the Mi 8 and has it Oneplus since the 8 series and now Samsung.
It has something to do with the newer generation panels.
