Received my 32GB Black 4S yesterday immediately noticed the yellowish tint to the home screen, pictures and apps. Its very evident when compared to my old 32GB Black iPhone 4. Its almost like using a yellow screen protector. I much prefer the whitest screen I have on my 4. I'm not sure if it is a glue problem and will disapear with the normal use but if not I hope apple can get an exchange for a less "yellow" screen phone. 😟
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
So? Did it go away? I've read through most discussions saying that a 4S with a serial number beginning with C37 or C39 has a similar problem. What does your's say?
No, the problem didnt go away after 3 weeks of use the screen look is the same, and yes my iPhone serial number is between the ones you mention on your post it start with "C38"
That *****! I wonder what's up with the new unlocked versions they released in November.
I have the same problem with my ulocked iphone4s 16G , i did a refund , i called Apple technical support today and they said its due to loose connection in the screen and its happen from time to time
Have you tried to set brightnes to max, and let it be turned on for 25-30 minutes. It helped me, when i got my iPhone 4s. It is also described on youtube. Link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FC0lxE-tNE
This does not work. I've tried this with 3 iphone 4s's now and left them on for about 30 hours with no change. Some people left theirs on for days with no change. They stated on other sites that your eyes are adjusting to the yellowish tint. Check out this topic.

There is no glue , i called apple and the technician said there is no glue under the screen , its a defect in the screen and he told me to return it back , i checked 4 iphone4s now 3 black and one white all have the yellw tint.
I have 2 C39 iphone 4s, mine and my boyfriends, and they both have a perfect screen. My last iphone 4s serial number started with C39 and was horrible, so I do not think the serial number has anything to do with it.
Common guys at apple.. Million people including me have the yellow screen problem and you guys are not even uttering a word from your mouth. Do yu want us to pay additionally for you guys to open up the mouth and tell how to fix this issue...
this is making everyone sick !!!!
I agree, my iphone4 died so I'm forced to go 4S, I really wanted to wait for the 5. Now I worried I'll either get a yellow screen, static or flat battery within seconds. Tempted to Galaxy S2 if I didn't dislike android gui so much
I just got an unlocked black iPhone 4S with C39 serial number. there is definitely a yellow tint to the screen - very annoying - I'm going to take it to the genius bar
Me too, i got two phones, C37 & C38 serial numbers with the same issue:( what can I do?
Take it in and complain at the genius bar. I did any they gave me the lame "it's the glue drying" explanation. They said if it isn't better in 2 weeks to take it back for replacement. I don't buy the glue theory at all . I think they want you to wait 2 weeks to get used to the color and forget about it.
If they really need glue to cure, then don't sell the product until it's ready. It's not like selling green bananas. Anyway mine is no better and I'm taking it back next week.
