    Test your AMOLED screen if it has a gradient problem. View this image on your N8. The background around QTorch should show a dark grey color. Otherwise, your unit has this problem.

                        AnonD-854, 05 Feb 2011SAMOLED also having purple effect problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=... moreSAMOLED has bigger problems than that, even the best ones on SGS has a tint of blue where it should be pure white, and also otherwise bad color reproduction compared to SLCD. The only way to rectify it is to set brightness to maximum but thats not possible to use, its too bright.


                        Sory AMOLED fans, there is no magic in AMOLED tech, the best LCD you can find on a cellfone nowadays is the HTC Desire Z. Color reproduction is stunning, but ofcors it dos not have the pure black and extreme contrast level of AMOLED. Its actually annoying to watch videos on SAMOLED because of the inaccurate skin colors of the actors. Noone looks like that in real, and it gets worse when its asian ppl in the movies.

                        For now one have to chose between reliable SLCDs with good colors, or play lotto with AMOLED and hope you get a good one that will stay good for more than a month or two.

                          AnonD-909, 06 Feb 2011also, does your screen brightness automatically changes with the intensity of the light? is it... more Just the opposite? Your former device must have been Faulty. The screen needs to get darker in a dark environment so as to conserve battery and not blind you. You wouldn't be able to see your surroundings if it remained bright. in a bright environment, the screen needs to be bright so as not to be a mirror. I'm at a loss of answers to why any one would want to deactivate this very important function. Its not like its new. Unless one has been living in a cave. My nokia 6630, made in 2003 had one. Is indispensable.

                                    Does anyone here know how to unlock the N8 without using unlock key or menu key???
                                    I want my phone to be unlocked instantly whenever i touch the screen.
                                    Pressing a button to unlock teases me every time i want to use the phone.
                                    Is there any software that would do the trick for me?

                                    Your suggestions would be appreciated :)
