I don't want to send my phone to repair service,they usually sucks in my country. I think i'll use modded screen settings to hide any artifact

My screen had the light banding on light colored screens, it didn't bother me much just gave it the brushed metal look .
Then on a cold day I noticed a green line at the top of the screen, then it disappeared. I then I noticed that on the top and bottom of the screen there was a line at full brightness. This was not noticeable with the buttons and notification bar at the top and bottom just on colored screens.
I sent it in last week and it looks great now. No banding, lines are gone, and no odd colors that I can tell.
I looked at a demo GIII unit at Tmobile and was surprised at how bad of screen burn in it had, I didn't think that would happen these days.

Believe me not. I've tested right in the shop my Gnexus against both S3 and Note2. Gnexus screen way brighter and crispier.

This is mine, black lines over some colors, like red or orange. It's a bad defect but usually not visible.
Less than 1 year for my gn

I'm letting you know the settings I'm giving you are awesome but don't let your kids use it or have it on longer than 2 minutes before the screen shuts down because it will burn in the letters it has on my screen very lightly ! here goes. Franco kernel....Color multipliers 300/300/400 (if you bought them all up to 400 the white will be coming cream looking white so don't do it) gammas green/red/blue 30/30/30. Omap gamma 1.2 Trinity contrast -16. If u do these settings the screen is amazing but amoled so once Again...be carful and make screen go off in 2 min or less. Franco app is in play store and u can flash straight from it(if rooted of course)
Very helpfull and informative post mate. Thanks for sharing this with us

My phone's screen is the same. What can i do for a solution? or Is it possible for a solution to this problem?
My screen had this same defect, or possibly a bit worse. It made it especially unpleasant to read eBooks with black text against a light/white background. I finally took the time to resurrect my Nexus One and returned the Galaxy Nexus to Samsung for a screen replacement, under warranty. It's at Samsung's repair center in Plano, TX, right now. I'm crossing my fingers I'll get a screen that doesn't have this problem or some new one.
In the meantime, it's kinda neat that the Nexus One is still doing the job for me. It has its quirks, but it's a great phone.

Thanks for answer.
I'll go to the service to carry out repairs under warranty.
I hope, your problem resolved and me to..
Please give me the latest news.

Did the same thing yesterday. Sent in my GNex because of screen problems and revived my Nexus One.
My N1's screen is still as good as it was at day 1 (bought it in the first days after the release and used it for more than two years). The GNex screen on the contrary s%cked in comparison to day 1 (after 1 year)

Yeah, the N1 is still a heck of a phone. :good:
I received an email update from Samsung on Monday indicating that my repair is on hold, waiting for parts. I'm assuming that part is a screen, which is good news, since that means they concur that it needs replacing. I don't know if this is standard operating procedure or if I'm in for a long wait. The original estimate for the repair to be done was March 7, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll hear something more soon.

56Got the Nexus today and having no experience with the AMOLED screens (iPhones and EVO before) I'm not sure what is considered normal and what is defective. I know there are plenty of threads about this, but very few examples.
Whites (Brightness 0-100%)
Greys (Brightness 0-100%)
More Texture (bad) left, Less Texture (good) right.
Viewing Angle - UPDATE: My new Nexus has much less tint when viewed at an angle. *Colors adjusted to match as close as possible in Adobe Lightroom - and they are very close.
Viewing Angle - At extreme angles the screen with produce an iridescent effect.

Galaxy Nexus OLED's with a black screen showing red and green pixels are indeed slightly lit even though it should be "black" (15 second exposure).
Galaxy Nexus "black" vs LCD "black" (15 second exposure).
THESE ARE DEFECTS Exchange these phones... You shouldn't have to live like this!

Courtesy of staticx57 - Black spots on a dark screen. Very common issue, odds are your replacement screen will have these, too.

If other people want to add their own pictures for analysis I'll try and add them to the first post so people new to the AMOLED world can feel better about theirs/exchange for a new one.4Just dont deal with screen issues that you dont notice every day and are not that big problem. If in 99.9% situations the screen is ok let i be, we are still not in age where everything will be perfect. I compared display with Iphone 4S and be happy guys. It has much better colors (not sure with white). Black is much much more black and other colors are more richer. 4.0.2 factory also increased minimal brightness so this paper pattern is no longer big deal. I was really worried about display when I bought it but now everything is ok. In the evenings I switch on the screen (to look at clock) and black merges with borders and I just see beatiful screen. btw its just Super Amoled HD not plus. Plus should be still in development and maybe it will appear in Galaxy S3 I would rather if not (it feels better if you know there isnt better display). Some models have issues but I dont know smartphone or just phone which dont.3I found this on another thread on a different forum and it does show the inconsistencies of the display.
If you turn down brightness all the way down to the left and can see how greys might become purple.
See attached images. These are 3 different models all with brightness at the lowest from the settings menu.
Of course on mine once I turn brightness up a bit it goes back to normal, so not sure if it really means much.
