Im posting this for a coworker of mine who is having problems with his screen. On occasion his screen becomes very dim. At times the RBG values get messed up and his screen has a blue, green or red tint. Is this a common problem? Also if anyone has had this problem how did verizon handle it?

It is pretty crazy how people who have the skyrocket ignore that the screen looks awful when dim. Its even worse that Samsung has not stopped production to fix the problem either. You would think the white one would come with a fixed screen. Usually by this time you have people writing reviews and ranting about phone defects on YouTube, yet with this phone nothing. Just hoping someone agrees with me and maybe we can stick these problem up samsungs behind.

Dont think anyone cares that much
Why use the screen dimmed? Kinda defeats the purpose of having a super amoled

Agreed.
I have mine set at 50% and its bright enough for me all the time.
I never go lower than that though, so I personally never experience poor screen quality.

I've never notice the problems mentioned throughout the forum regarding dim settings and colors/lines. I'm sure that to a good eye mine is too afflicted.
One a side note, took my screen protector off today, and man! is that screen gorgeous. It's gonna be hard to put it back on, but I learned that lesson with the Atrix when I took it's protection off and it hit the ground.
You see, and that is the problem. You are ignoring to issue. So when your in a dark room you have your screen full brightness? I don't so it does bother me.

I agree my screen sucks at low brightness. I mainly run my low to save power only turn it up when outside. I wrote a review on Samsung site and did give a bad review on the screen.

I just picked up a white skyrocket yesterday and I've got the screen issues / lines. Looks like a "brushed metal" overlay on top of everything.
I'm going to be getting it exchanged for a new one tomorrow.

Maybe I got lucky... I've had my I727-SR for about 4wks now and haven't experienced the screen lines / screen problems others are posting.... I consistently run at low brightness with a screen protector and screen looks perfect.... no lines, blobs or other anomalies.

Mine has it. So does the white one I looked at. It bothers me and I notice it often. But its the only phone on AT&T that I want and LTE just went live a week ago. I will sadly have to live with it :-(

I feel bad for anyone having screen problems, but as I type this, I turned the brightness almost all the way down... No problems at all!

SMH ! Get over it! A few slightly lines which is only visible when phone is up your nose an on a dark grey background on 0% brightness, is the end of the world run!!!

My screen is great. No lines or any of that kind of stuff.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
just picked one up today. white one.
i see the lines below 50% brightness. above, they are gone.
I believe this is just a simple issue of having the same pixel density of the galaxy S2 but with a larger screen.
this should be device wide.......i dont see why people should have different results....
edit: i have it only above 30% brightness actually....
No problems here... at 0 it still looks great, no lines or weird issues

I have personally seen this vary from device to device. what may not be that bad on yours could be 20x's worse on another. others of us are in fact picky and expect more for what we paid for this device.
To each their own

playing video
When I play video ie Netflix YouTube etc I notice that the picture quality is not.what I expect.from a 250$ phone. I love this phone and that is.my only complaint. I have tried.adjusting.the brightness but it doesn't seem to help. Is this a problem that all are having?
I just got the Skyrocket today and just now turned the brightness all the way down and did not see any issues with screen clarity. Looks pretty good to me.

Mine has the same issues. However, they are ignorable if you customize the look of your phone. I changed the screen density and customized my phone with a dark bg and modified system apks.

Hi,
My nexus s is new and since day 1 i just use it with 0 brightness.after hours of exploring, i noticed that when i open up the keyboard for more than 10secs and drag down the notification bar the keyboard boxes can still be clearly seen.its like a shadow of the keyboard imprinted in the notifiaction.noticed this in market as well when searching for apps the keyboard shadow can be clearly seen.also more than 5 sec static on your homescreen,after that i drag down i can clearly see the icons shadows in the grey notifocation bar. Is this normal? All of you have this behavior when on 0 brightness?or do i have a weak display?its kind of annoying sometimes.

Its sort of a burn image. The blues fade out and get a yellow haze. You can test this by displaying a blue image for example google image blue and zoom in. Auto brightness and sleeping the ohone when not using will keep the colors rich. I had a vibrant that did the same thing.

Sucks but it cant be fixed without replacing the phone/screen

So my phone has a burn in at the top of the screen and on white screen like a browser there is a blue bar. Its faint. Should I go to best buy mobile to get a replacement or use my warranty. Or does anybody have a fix

Anybody?

There's no way to fix it if it's really screen burn in. Use any warranty you have.

My screen is shaking or vibrating just a little. If I go to the stock recovery and look at the highlightet text I can see that the text is vibrating. Am I the only one? It is barely noticable during a booted up system, but it is anoying.
Do you have a solid screen in stock recovery?
Yes

Yes wobbling, but just a little. You only see it when you stare at the higlighted text in recovery, but just the highlighted.

Probably my eyes is tricking me or I was not aware of this wobbling thing for 3 years, because now I see wobbling my optimus 2x's screen.

Try showing it to someone else without saying anything, you might only perceive it to be "shaking" because you believe it is there and are looking for it.
It seems like you can't change the color of the LED with this phone using Lightflow. Anyone have any luck with this?

If it's like the last few HTC phones (rezound, one, one max) you only get two colors.

HTC phones don't have a tri-color LED like LG or Samsung phones so any custom LED apps won't work.
