I have a TF201 and it has a warmer yellow tone to it.
Watching Simpsons on it looks great but other than that, watching regular stuff the skin tones are overly yellowing.
Here's a picture of what I mean:

The paper is supposed to be white...the lack of lighting in the room makes it look bluish...but you can compare the difference.
Thoughts?
Am I being overly picky here?
Others have reported a yellow tint.
My screen also is too yellow, but I didn't want to return my Prime because of the chance of getting one that was defective in a more serious way! There is a relatively simple solution if the yellow tone is bothering you -- use an app like Screen Adjuster than can change the tint of the display. There are plenty of other apps that may be better, but I haven't tried them.
Note that Screen Adjuster does not have a "decrease yellow" option -- using colour theory, I instead added blue.
Also, if you want something to show up as white in photos, learn to use your camera's White Balance feature!
Do you have it in power saving mode?

Power saving mode supposedly just reduces contrast, it isn't supposed to alter colour balance. I find I have the yellow tint regardless of which mode I choose.

I've had my phone almost a week now and I've noticed that my capacitive buttons went from a light red to now almost a hot pink... anyone else have this problem? Seems like maybe the heat or light from the LED's are causing the red to fade quickly.

try and get a pic of it
Mine are hot pink also. I thought that's how it always was?
To quote Paris Hilton though... "that's hot!"
First post updated with pic. Notice how red the wall paper is compared to the buttons.
wow that is pretty pink lol

Haha
Ive found a temporary solution however... download the app Screen Filter, set it to 100% and uncheck Enable soft-key backlight. This will allow the screen to be at normal brightness but have the capacitive key lighting turned off.
Thats not good. Hope that's not gonna be a wide spread issue. I've had my phone since Saturday and no issues yet.

This reminds me of the "brushed nickel" on the TB kickstand. Started peeling off after 2 weeks.
Hmm I've had mine since release day and mine still seem to be a normal shade.

Hi all,
I notice that most of the time there is a kind of white glow around text on the SIII's screen, that's quite annoyin when you have certain color backgrounds (anything not white or black actually). It's most noticable on the Dynamic and Standard setting.
Is there some kind of fix or soltion for this? I never noticed this on my Galaxy Nexus so it can't be the AMOLED screen...
I've noticed this subtle white banding on text under certain circumstances also. I don't think it's anything wrong with your display. It could be artifacts created from the contrast. Personally I don't find it too of putting and it sometimes helps with legibility. It could be something to do with the display trying to sharpen things.

Nice! It's this exactly!
Now it's like this:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
And it should be like this:
Great to hear that Supercurio is working on this! Does he have an XDA thread as well or should we follow his website?

No thread yet for the S3 but you can follow his twitter.
im suffering this as well. I really hate it!
Hope he fixes it soon!
Yeah I'm getting more and more annoyed by the phenomenon. Especially since this didn't occur on the Galaxy Nexus, so it's a software thing for sure..
not sure if this is discussed elsewhere or is the same thing as the black crush issue ....this is a bit different ....i see lines where the screen background gradiants from black to grey, some apps are worse than others.
it does not show with solid colors, only with gradiants like on ICS style menus.
had to take a picture because it doesn't show on a screenshot, this is one of the worst, the others are not as bad with only a few lines
anyone know what this is?

Exactly the same here. I don't know if go and take a new one, because I'm tired of these AMOLED Screens. On my SGS2 had the same problem, the ugly gradients, some green/yellow tint, and ink marks with not true deep blacks. And now, with PenTile.
Put this image on your S3, It's a screenshot of MegaJump. On my PC it looks well but on the phone... ahh.

Sorry friend, it's just Samsung. That's what we get from a "premium" phone.
(I'm spanish, sorry if there are some grammatical errors)
yes, i can see all the gradiants quite visibly on the S3, it is much better on my S1, my S1 also doesn't have those grey banding lines which are worse than the halo effect ....i hope the lines are just software or background issue
i still prefer amoled to LCD though, just those banding lines suck
Hi, ho have the same problem on my sgs2. It's not a screen problem, but a 16bit rendering. This rendering mode improves 3D graphics performances, but reduces display quality introducing: banding, dithering, color missmatch.
aha!
it seems that is the answer ....so how do we enable 24 bit rendering?
can't find any info on it ...or is it something that should not be changed?
i presume there would have been an option on the phone if it was ok to do without too much performance degradation
anyone noticed the light color patch on the right side of lock screen when you apply a dark wallpaper and ripple effect is ON?
It looked something like below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

}
removing the ripple effect fixes the light color patch. :good:
That thing is actually a ripple, you want to get rid of that nice effect, weird!
Maybe my kindergarten had failed me, but don't you mean the left side?

It's actually the right one, facing the phone
The thing in the left is a ripple when i took a screen shot.
Turn off the ripple effect and problem will be solved its usually cause of black wallpaper... No one at Samsung tested lockscreen with black wallpaper

yeah.. they got too excited releasing the phone and it had several bugs..
Same thing on mine as well.
is there any method of reducing or hiding the black outlining near the bezel on the g2.is it present in all the roms?
lol, that is a hardware not a software issue

i know the question is kinda noobish but what i mean is that the outlining thickness increses when the phone is running as compared to when phone screen is off or the phone is booting.i mean out of total outlining thickness 70% is hardware related and 30% is software related
can you post some pictures of what you're talking about?

i dont have other camera to take picture of phone.if u see your phone when its screen is off the thickness of black outlining around the screen is less.when you turn on the screen then more thickness is added by the rom to the outlining.see it
sorry, don't know what you're talking about... for me the bezel is always the same, screen off or screen on (stock rooted v20f d802)
It's practically bezel-free as it is, certainly the smallest bezel of any device in its class.
What do you expect?

When your screen is off, you see the bezel very thin, but when you turn on the screen, the surrounding area of the screen have black line that add more "bezel"?
If yes, then it's hardware related and you can't fix that
That's why I choose the black color, so I can't see the "bezel" difference between off and on screen.
I think most of white or non black color phone should have same problem, but on G2, is more thick.
And I think that's why LG G3 use all black color surrounding the screen on any phone color.
