Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

I simply set "System Brightness" to 50%. I tried 75% but it was blinding. Mess around with it, I left everything else alone... but that certainly did the trick for me.


If all you're doing is changing "System Brightness" in the Screen Adjuster app, then you don't actually need the app. Changing "System Brightness" is the same as changing your screen brightness through Settings->Display->Brightness.

Thinking I am going to have to trade mine in too. Even my wife is seeing the greys. :(

lol! All of y'all talking about this makes me want to go to VZ and compare mine now. Although I've been on amoled for so long so I feel I've got a good grasp on some of the tradeoffs for the tech.

Are you seeing grays at very low brightness only jmar?

Yeah, I didn't really think my screen had any issues, but after reading all this crap, it got me paranoid. I ended up going in and comparing my phone to the display unit. Luckily, mine was slightly brighter than the display unit (both set a 100% brightness) and looked relatively the same at low brightness. And mine actually had consistently faster download speeds using the speedtest.net app (using same server).
