Is this normal?
The color is off on my camera, but does anyone have those streaks when showing a pure red screen? I'm about to send it away for an RMA

This is actually normal. Using a software such as Screen Filter and looking at a pure grey image will show the screen pattern pretty clearly. Very noticeable at lower brightness, not much of an issue otherwise.

You might just have noticed it now, and not many people notice it. I had to show it to simms22 once, because he never saw it before. But once you see it, you can't ignore it.

I gotta say yours seems very noticeable. Display about to die maybe? Did you have the brightness on high a lot of the time? Anything in particular?

nothing in particular. I first noticed while using Launcher 7, all the red tiles had a lot of striping. I'm talking about pure red #FF0000. The gray noise has always seemed minimal. I only noticed it while using MIUI or Gingerbread. I just hope they don't replace my screen with the S-LCD. the SAMOLED is still much better than the S-LCD

Although I cannot confirm this right away, I highly doubt replacing it for a S-LCD is as easy as plugging it in. Phones have to be cost effective, so the less time spent repairing them, the better. I don't think you'll have anything but a SAMOLED.

Well I just got it back.
And they didn't fix the issue
although they did replace my charge port and volume buttons.
So, not a complete loss
