AT&T 3g nexus one screen issue?

[zhelf]

when the AT&T 3g capable N1's came out i remember there was the stories of discolored screens, is this still the case? i am on AT&T in my area they have great service and i do currently own an iphone 3gs but want to have an android device and the option to swap when i want. I just want to be sure the screen horror stories are resolved since there is no physical store i can go into. thanks guys

I read just recently on here that the discolored, purple hue, has been popping up on other 2.1 android devices. It seems that the photo app was changed and instead of 24 bit color it's displaying 16 bit.

ok so the original reports of it just being the hardware were incorrect? it is an actual software issue?sorry just want to be sure before i drop 566 for a phone.

I went from a TMO Nexus One to an ATT one. The screen hue is a little different but it doesn't bother me. The build quality and battery haven been better and actual pictures from the camera look just the same.

its not true. a lot of comments all over the web regarding this issue seem to rectify the att nexus one screen as being the same as the tmoible version. however, that is not to say that build quality between nexus one phones are different on an individual basis. but to say that there is a difference between att and tmobile version nexus ones is simply not true. it hasn't been proved, and most likely will not be. there were comments even going as far as to say that whoever posted the pic modified the picture. who knows.
either way, i have the att nexus one. screen color is on point except for the gallery app, as above has mentioned. its a software issue to be fixed in the next or later updates by google.

i guess what i'm saying is... GO GET IT.
