Galaxy S II screen when viewing black images/websites. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenever I view a plain black picture(In a dark room), I notice some black patches on my screen. Theu are black like the glass paint of the screen. The black ones are scattered across the screen. Is that normal? I can see the black patches when ai'm in a dark room and view a pure black image.
Thanks.

Yeah it's normal for our displays. You can search, and there's a lot of threads discussing this

You can have a look through mine as well. There are quite a few black and white shots in it. High contrast B&W photos look great on our screens.
BTW there are alot of NSFW shots in here.

Check out jonnybuenos Black Gloss thread on here. He has an app for choosing wallpapers that has some pretty awesome ones that are mostly black.
There is also the "Hot Babes" gallery... not really my style, but there was one artsy looking upclose pic of a lady that is in black/white and her hands cover most of her mouth.... looks pretty amazing on the Vibrant.
Thanks a lot

I used the rare black wallpapers app from the market and saved one to the sd and then used the built in crop function to only use a small portion of the black background as the actual paper

I just took a picture with finger covering the camera lens. Then I applied that as my wall paper. Just because I'm to lazy to open paint and make a true black .jpg....lol it works though.

[bounty] black and yellow [theme]

Will Start the donations at $10 (i know it's not much, but it's all i got.)
All I'm asking for is like "The Generation X" series in black and yellow, as long as it replaces stock notifications and main icons. ANY Black and yellow would be awesome!
Thanks,
Tim
Aww too bad...was thinking this could be cool
Black and yellow!! Absolutely!

We have all seen just about every other color themed, but no black and gold. I think this would look amazing...
I9000 has one, check golden eye on that thread, sure someone could port it

There is a Yellow Jacket theme for the Axura ROM.
http://devsforandroid.com/ip.board/index.php?/topic/45-theme-axura-2310-yellow-jacket/
ive been thinking about creating a fire-ish theme to mirror my HighVoltage theme, since i want to keep theming but ive built on that one about as much as i can
That yellow and black one looks good!

No Black and Gold blech imo.
The yellow jacket theme didn't work with bionix.
But we're getting the juices flowing, this is good.

Well if it is anything like your Honeycomb theme, it should be awesome.

Screen colours

Hi people!
I was just wondering: If my homescreen is black, would I save more battery than if my homescreen was colorful?
A silly question.

I do not think that applies to LCD screens, as I read that it blocks the pixel to form black.

based on those, looks like using black is same as white or even more power hungry than white.
Howeever on LED is opposite of course.
