Screen green/yellow - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
My friend's Nexus got screen green/yellow.
What can be?
We think maybe it is battery issues.

why or how would a battery isdue make your screen green? that idea is completely unrelated. what you have is a device with broken hardware. i recommend that you get it exchanged asap.

if it comes and goes, its probably a loose wire?

[Q] Dead Note because of broken bios battery?

Is it possible that the phone is not able to boot (even with JIG) and can't be discovered by computer, because of broken "bios" battery? I'm just an amateur but for me it looks like there is some kind of leak. In Samsung service center they told me that my mobo needs to be changed, but I don't belive them and I'm not gonna pay $350 because they are to lazy and money hungry to check what is really wrong with my phone.
After watching the service manual, it looks to be a backup capacitor.
The part # is: 2409-001186
The value is 33000 µF @ 3,3 volts operating voltage.
This should very cheap.
Almost sure that it's only for RTC backup, you should try to remove it to see if your phone boots up.

If you mean normal big flat battery from Samsung, then the answer is yes. But I'm not really sure if this what is on my pictures is a battery or a capacitor. Can't really move this thing. Either way it doesn't look good to me, but maybe it suppose to be like this.

You mean I should remove it and try to boot the phone without it or I should remove it, put a new one and then try to boot?

Just lift the minus connection (easiest pad) and check if the phone boots up.
If it boots, then buy a new one and change it.

Did it but nothing new. Phone is still dead - no download mode, no discovery in windows, only warm when connected to charger or when battery is in. But thanks for help.
So you should download the service manual and follow the repair procedure.
I will look into this but without proper equipement I don't think that I would be able to do anything.
Have you tried another battery?

I've tried only changing battery that you put in your Note, not this little one on my pictures.

Thanks for this information, it was very difficult to find anything at all on this topic!
Although I didn't try it on an N7000, I can confirm that removing the RTC-battery (someone in another forum stated that it actually is a capacitor) on a previously unbootable i9100 did allow me to boot up the device normally again. Would be interesting to know if leaving it out completely has any adverse effects...

Your digitizer has got a problem. Probably the phone is dropped or pressed hard with a heavy object..
Not sure though.

My incs has that very slightly. It doesn't effect the usage though no? I don't think much can be done apart from replacing parts, I wouldn't worry unless it gets annoying

Mine is 3 years old I guess it had to have deteriorated over time.. but that said mine is not that bad
If it gets worse though definitely take it back or something

Best way to fix yellowing on part of screen

So I've noticed yellowing in the upper left hand corner of my N6...it's fairly faint, but it's certainly noticeable...what's the best way to go about fixing this? Do I have to change RGB settings through a custom kernel, or what's the easiest way? Thank you.

This might work
http://nexus5.wonderhowto.com/how-to/fix-screen-burns-your-nexus-6-other-amoled-device-0159397/
I actually just used that last night because I do have a little screen burn as well...seems to temporarily fix that, but it reverts back after a little bit...is that something that has to be done on a consistent basis until it permanently goes away? As for the yellowing, it didn't seem to do anything.
I bought the N6 used n it's in excellent shape, I just never noticed any of this when I bought it...out of all the Amoled devices I've had I've never had burn-in problems...
Anyone else have input?
You can definitely try playing around with the rgb values, but other than that it is a hardware issue that really can't be fixed and you will have to replace the screen.

OK, what's the best way to go about changing the RGB values? Do I need a custom kernel? I am running the Pure Shamu ROM.

Most probably, it's happening for burn-in. Just go to accessibility>color inversion and turn on the toggle and set the screen time out to max. keep it like that. This may solve the issue but I will recommend you to replace the device.

Do you know what the turnaround time is on a replacement device? The only problem is I don't have a backup phone to use in the meantime...

How long should I leave it like this? I've heard ppl say 20-30 mins, n it does seem to clear up a bit after that amnt of time, but it doesn't quite stick...
And I haven't seen this burn-in fix change the yellowing yet...

OK, I'm gonna call support now...
Can anyone attest to everything working out well with the $500 security deposit option for receiving a replacement device first?
What's the best number to call for support? Anyone have a number for the white glove dept? I just wanna speak with someone who I can understand and get to the point...
Does anyone know how to reach the white glove dept at Motorola for my replacement? I'm having trouble finding out if my credit card was processed or not for the advance exchange...I got an email last night saying my order was processed n the funds would be on hold for the security deposit, now today I receive an email from them saying my card didn't go through...so far it's been jumping through a lot of hoops n hitting dead ends with Motorola support...difficult to get someone intelligible on the line it seems...
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you kindly...

white glove number is 800-653-7185
i have done many advanced replacements always worked out fine.

Someone with the phone please try this.

Hey guys-
I have the galaxy s6 and I have a weird problem which I think may or may not be burn in. Someone please take the phone outside and try this:
1. Put phone under as much sunlight as possible
2. Open display to white screen.
3. Now look at the borders of the display(about 1 inch from top and bottom and 1/4 inch from left and right side.
Do you see a grey color line bordering that chunk of the display?
I am thinking of contacting t-mobile but my gut tells me this is in the design of the display assembly. Please let me know. Thanks in advance guys.
I see exactly what you're saying but it doesn't look to me like a factory defect

You see the greyish lined box? It is quite annoying once you see it.
Yeah I do but it doesn't really bother me
I see. It definitely bothers me when I see it. That is just me though. T-mobile says that it is a defect in my phone and not normal though. Looks like that is not the case.

Yes, they said it is a defect in my unit but the reality is that it is present on all units. Take a look on yours for yourself. Quite annoying once you see it.

One in ten phones have defects. That's simply statistics.
You have a defective phone.
You need to return it and replace it with a working phone.

Have you flashed the phone since you got it?
Seems odd that, that many things would fail all at once without the phone completely going kaput.
Though, if I had to guess, I'd say one of the layers of the phone became disconnected if it's not software related.

The phone new I get this problem after 2 months I don't do anything to it when I get update I update it the problem start from rgb and fan then the logo then the fingerprint I don't know why
Loose connections internally could be the issue, though there'd need to be a couple of them in order for that many things to fail.
Either way, sounds like an RMA would be the only way to fix it, and it shouldn't matter where you purchased it.
