IPhone 4S (black version): Yellow-ish screen

Hi
Today my new iPhones 4S came in. I ordered a white one for my girlfriend, and a black one for myself. When comparing mine to my 3GS, iPod and to my girlfriends 4S, I noticed my screen is "yellow". This seems to be a problem that was known to the iPhone 4, and now re-appears in the (black) iPhone 4S.
I was just wondering if someone experianced it, and perhaps, found a solution. Maybe by using the warranty to replace the phone? I have no idea what the community has found out so far, or poses as a solution. All I know is that I'd like to get a screen that works as you might expect, especially for the price of this phone. It's brand new.
Looking forward to hearing of similar experiances and the solution to this problem.
Kind regards,
Walter

Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
If you have gone through ALL the above steps and are still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Verify the issue is not content related, by viewing different content.
    If the image is too dark, adjust the brightness. In General Settings choose Brightness and Wallpaperand slide the slider.

    There are few reason that I got from some apple shop saleman(In Thai) and someone in discussion experience.
    First (1), The reason is IPS or PSL Technology made the screen to be yellow tint color.
    Second (2), Someone told me, It is depend on production lot some lot don't have yellow tint screen but, some lot have yellow tint screen.
    Third (3), Someone told me, It is normally case of Macbook Pro Mid 2012. Yellow tint screen will be recovering when using it long time.
    (In the third, I'm not believe. Because, My iPhone 4s got a Yellow tint screen too. And, I used it for 7 months. The screen was the same at 7 month ago)
    I need to know that what is true and what is false.

  • Last Friday, the broken glass of my iphon g3 replaced. Since then, remains the screen of my iphon regular black. The battery is not empty. By the restart I get my iphon back to life. It always comes back sooner. The last 24 hours 3x. Is there a solution?

    Since Apple doesn't repair iPhones (they replace them) you will have to take it back to whoever "fixed" it. Since it's been opened by an unauthorized 3rd party, it is no longer eligible for replacement by Apple.

  • Yellow tinted screen display on my newly bought iPhone 5. Any solutions?

    Hi, I have an issue on my iPhone 5. I bought this iPhone 5 1week ago and I encounter yellow tinted screen when I compare it with my iPhone 4. Any solutions to it or reasons for this? Hope to hear soon.

    Contact Apple at feedback or take it back to where you purchased it. These are user to user forums and you are not speaking to Apple here.
    Good Luck

  • HT1688 I need a Front LCD Display Screen Touch Digitizer Assembly Frame for Iphone 4S Black, where can i buy it ? can i it by website? what ? thanks

    I need a Front LCD Display Screen Touch Digitizer Assembly Frame for Iphone 4S Black, where can i buy it ? can i it by website? what ? thanks

    Anywhere you can find it via the obvious Google search. It won't be from Apple, but will be a generic replacement.
    Why are you throwing away any future chances of out of warranty replacements when you drop or drown it?  Apple will give you a warranteed replacement phone for $199 (in the US, roughly the same in your country)

  • No power on iPhone 3gs. Shows yellow screen, boots up then freezes at unlock screen when connected to charger repeatedly

    Recently i purchased an iPhone 3gs from someone and was told that the battery was defective. A replacement battery was also given to me with the phone. I went about using it and realized it would shut down when the phone was at about 75%-80%. A week later i decided to YouTube to change the batt, figuring that would solve the issue. The phone worked fine for 5 mins then went off. It didnt come on so i figured the batt was dead. went on and connected my charger. A yellow tint screen popped up then shortly after, the apple logo. Booted up well until it got to the unlock screen. It was frozen, was unable to put in my code. 2 mins later the phone reboots on its own and the same thing happens... over and over until i disconnect the charger. The batt shows its a 97% yet it wont stay on. I've tried to research but cant find anything that works. I NEED HELP!!!

    Called AppleCare this morning, confirmed that this is a hardware problem. Getting replacement.

  • HT1212 I'm trying to backup my iPhone and restore it because the screen has gone black.  It won't allow me to do anything without putting in the passcode.  I can't put in the passcode because the screen is black.

    I'm trying to backup my iphone and restore it because the screen has gone black.  It won't allow me to do anything without putting in the passcode.  I can't put in the passcode because the screen is black.

    Try rebooting it (hold home and power together for 15-20 seconds). If the display doesn't come back to life, you're out of luck. You're supposed to back it up before it fails. It's too late to do so after the fact.

  • Iphone 4 black screen, tried dfu mode, itunes not picking up device. not able to bring up red phone off slide bar or apple logo if any combination of button holding. HELP

    iphone 4 black screen, tried dfu mode itunes not picking up device. not able to bring up red phone off slide bar or apple logo if any combination of button holding.
    Phone was given to me by apple 2 weeks ago. Last I saw of it working was phone was off so i did the quick reset. Apple logo came up, it started up and keypad for passcode came up. It said 2% battery then went up to 64% a second later. When I was playing wth it not 5mins before it was at 65% so would make sence that later indication was correct. Before I could type the 4 digit passcode in the phone turned off to black screen. Now I have tried all possible reset options incuding the 10 second hold down of both buttons for less than 10 seconds and longer than 10 seconds. Nothing is working. iTunes is not recognising the device at all. Ive had it plugged into a wall socket for three hours and the computer for 2 hours and no signal of life. Ive tried the forums on here and the youtube vidoes and seem to know what im doing with resets. Anyone able to shed some light?

    Not being able to get DFU Mode indicates hardware failure. Since you recently received this iPhone from Apple it has at a minimum 90 day Warranty. Make Genius reservation or make service arrangements and take or send to Apple for resolution. Regarding what is actually wrong with the iPhone, it could be possibility of several things. But some of the features point directly to battery. First step in fixing this iPhone would be battery replacement. Then trouble-shooting from there if still problem. Take it to Apple.

    First off, try a reset of the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, see if the problem persists.
