GearVR - One Eye Darker Than The Other? - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

So I just discovered my S8+ has a display problem that results in the right eye (lower half of the screen) being much darker than the other side; this causes discomfort during GearVR use because whenever a dark scene is presented, the pixels on the right side of the screen become so black that they actully turn off! Its like going blind in one eye!

Here is a solid dark wallpaper I generated to test if you have this issue yourself, simply load up this image on your phone, turn brightness right up in a dark room and check for and variance in brightness, if you see any, you'll likely have a simular issue.

I find anything else just reduces fidelity and readability.
V
just about any abstract things(like the default WM5 wallpaper). I find that picture of cars, girls, etc is tacky because of the line between the plugins.
yes mate i agree,
i too prefer plain one col backgrounds,im redoing my pda total wipe and reinstall and i dont know which ill go with
prob green or orange ,its been blue for ages
Black coz its matches with JAMin
purple coz its my faforite color (just on Start menu)

Here you can read the details and watch a video of this working.
Summarizing, is based on rendering screen only showing one component of color. It could be a great idea combined with the light sensor for working automatic in high light ambient, in solar light, etc.
Old News are old.
thats definetely not that i want to see on my wonderful OLED screen
Ok, i think on not a normal use... but think in direct sunlight... your wonderful oled screen... seem to be the same with or without this and power needed is less.... it could be a good solution.
ok what the point to buy a phone with OLED? Buy a phone with monochrome display.

Screen problem HTC One X AT&T

I've had my HTC One X since the day it came out and love it but I had a problem that turned out to be the motherboard for the phone. I fixed that by finding someone with a broken screen white version from AT&T and bought that since my screen was fine. I switched things around and gave it to my son so he could get away from a Windows phone was using. About a week ago there would be weird texture issues on the screen where the fonts looked to tear almost and then when playing games it would go to a screen of different colored pixels

. Anyway I have taken the phone apart and checked all the connections but I am at a loss and as a matter of fact the phone just sits there on the same screen all the time now so I made it worse.
Anyone with similar experience that has a better idea? Thanks.

Camera sucks at greenery / foliage pictures

Went on a hike in Brazil today and couldn't manage to take any decent photos the tree and other green stuff. It seems the contrast between the bright light and the dark green of the vegetation really screws with the AI, but even with the AI disabled, the pictures still looked like below. Is there a way take greenery photos closer to what the human eye would see, with the P30 Pro? Or is post-processing the only option for approaching realism?
With AI on:

I don't have a comparable shot with another phone, but here's a jungle pic shot with an iPhone XR. To me it looks a lot more vibrant and fresh.

Amoled issue Consultation

Hello guys I hope you are doing great
I would like to ask you about something related to my iPhone 12 Pro Max when the brightness is below 30% I get a greenish reddish tint (reddish at the bottom that goes greenish at the top)
My question is being only at low brightness and disappearing completely at higher brightness can this be fixed with software to recalibrate The display at such lower brightness or it's hardware and there is no way around it.
I am attaching an example I am a bit lucky as I have the same display serial number as the photo which indicates samsung good panel
And lastly thanks for your time!
I am having the same as the image only difference is green up and red down happens only at 30% or lower
This issue is widely known with iPhone 12 lineup I wanted to ask here as there are many experienced people with such issues
