Taking a screen shot won't show it. You have to take a picture of your entire phone.

With the screenshot you provided, there is nothing wrong.

A picture won't really help much. With different lighting and white balance issues you have to see it in person. Otherwise you are just adding another variable. It might help to take a picture of two phones side by side.

Agreed, you would need another phone to compare it with.

Maybe he thought that the yellow screen was software based and wanted a second opinion. If it was then a fix could be made with a simple update. Remember not everyone spends as much time on the forums as we do.

OP, in order to know if you have "yellow screen" you would have to take a pic of the phone with a camera or
Another phone camera. Or take a pic of two phones side by side. It is an hardware issue and not software. Therefore a screenshot will not show whether or not you have an issue.

Also I know these forums can be really mean sometimes, but I think most people on this thread was just trying to
make light of the situation. Even though they came off as being "jerky."

Hopefully this has been of some help you...

You're missing the point here. Even if your screen did have issued a screenshot would not show it.

First of all, I apologize if I was mean. But there are two issues here. A screen shot won't show issues with your screen, any more than videotaping a TV show would show issues with your TV. And even if you took a picture of your screen with a camera, things like the white balance, the ambient lighting in your room and the screens that people are using to view the photo will all end up changing the way it looks, making it extremely difficult to tell what your screen actually looks like. I generally think that if you have to ask if something is a problem, it probably is subtle enough that it's not a big deal. So unless you're really bothered by the color of your screen, it's probably ok. You can always take it to a store and compare it with the ones on display if you're still unsure.

Asking a forum full of OCD people if there is a problem with YOUR phone...smh. That's the real issue. If you don't see anything that bothers you, why do you need us to tell you if it's ok or not? :confused:
