Is there a way to use backlight notification on Nexus S?
Any Kernel or Rom give me the option of doing this?
Thanks in advance!

Kinda Pointless
Even with the backlight on, the Nexus S SAmoled screen is still completely black, so that seems to be pretty pointless as a notification system since you wouldn't see any change from when the screen is off to when the backlight is on.
The only applicaiton I've seen that actually serves of some use is NoLED, since it flashes different icons on a black screen. It's free on the market. Look it up if you don't know it already.

Ok. But what if it would possible to blink the bottom of the device (white bottoms)

[Q] Settings Guide

Is there a guide for "Settings?" I am tired of looking at a black screen while my music is playing. Of course I can turn screen off but how do you change the color of the blank screen? Thanks

... not sure why you would want to be staring at a blank screen anyways...

The lower/top portions can be altered by looking here. I'm not sure if the full screen can be changed - it works well for me with the borders coloured.

Question about "Day Dream" mode.

I heard that on the Edge, in the mode you can put it in where a little clock lights along one of the edges, the whole screen is actually on a really dark shade of grey instead of pure black. Has anyone tried something like Dash Clock in Daydream while charging? Does it look like a OLED should? I.E., no light at all from anywhere except the pixels that aren't black?

grey lines at top of the screen with pure black wallpaper

So recently i started to notice that in my home screen (touchwiz or other launchers) at the top of the screen there is some grey lines it is best visible if i use a black wallpaper and set the brightness to the maximum. This doesn't show anywhere except on the home screen. I tried other wallpapers, and if i look at it in the gallery or turn on ultra power saving mode there is no grey lines.(my device is galaxy s6)
Does anyone know what it is? Or how to fix it?
(i hope you guys can understand me sry for my english)

So, if you switch to your pictures and images gallery, the lines disappear?
Did you drop your device on the floor or did it incurred any damages lately?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It's a common issue. It's stupid Touchwiz/Samsung system which creates a small overlay at the top of Homescreens (any launchers) & lockscreens. In gallery etc, it's perfectly black since no overlay.
I don't think there is a fix. U can use a slightly greyish instead of full black wallpaper. It's not a big problem though

Oh i understand. Thank you for help. I was thought my phone has a problem.

Sometimes the grey lines can appear in Samsung mobiles if you use a bad launcher or a theme which is not compatible with the phone. You can try updating to a new version and see if fixes the problem, or use a light gray wallpaper as already suggested. Another couple of things to try... take a screenshot of your phone and test it on your laptop to see if the lines are still there. If not then it could be a problem with the screen itself. It's also worth restarting your phone in Safe Mode as this mode only runs with pre-installed apps. If you don't see the lines then an app could be your culprit

How Does Amoled Screen Burn In Work?

I asked the same question on r/oneplus.
So I've bought a OP 7 Pro just 1 month ago and I'm really paranoid about burn in.
I searched a lot about amoled technology and from what i read i assumed screen burn in it's not something recoverable. And I took all the security measures to not make it happen. Auto-brightness, screen timeout to 30s, AOD turned off, and i never leave a static image on my phone.
Today I noticed that when i plugged my phone and the colors screensaver started, the fingerprint icon left a visible mark like it was burned in. But it lasted only a couple seconds and then it disappeared. Same thing happens with the signal icon on the status bar.
So, is that screen burn in? Or it's just image retention? And why is it recovering? Should I worry about it becoming permanent? I'm not even enjoying the phone anymore :c
Sorry for my english and thank you

Not that big of a deal. Especially with screen technology these days. Walk into your local carrier store, or Best Buy, look at an old phone that has an amoled screen and that's left on all the time for display. That's burn in. When the image stays there after a long period of time and doesn't disappear when the screen is turned off and on. When I had my S8 and S9, it was noticeable that the clock and always-on home button shifted all of the time. With screen technology the way it is now, a lot of OEM skins have some sort of burn-in protection in place. I've left the screen on my 7 Pro on for hours on end, alas at the lowest brightness, with the screen timeout set to never and I've never had an issue.

I'm paranoid about burn-in too. I use navigation gestures and systemui tuner app to hide status bar. I use battery widget reborn to see battery percentage and other notifications can be seen in notifications pull down shade. Use auto brightness to change brightness more frequently. I use amoled antiburn app to check for any burn-in. All clear so far.

Since launch, Not much chatter concerning this as an issue... Enjoy your device

I have Google maps burned in..? I hate it because you can see see on a white background alot.
