Nokia seems to have solved the mystery of the
purple hue.
The company's NokiaCare account tweeted the
news yesterday, saying that it has identified the
issue and promising a fix bundled into the
next overall software update.
Plaguing some owners of the Nokia 900 Lumia,
the bug displays a purple tint on the screen
when the brightness is set low. Several posts
at the XDA Developers Forum discussed the
issue and displayed the actual problem ,
showing the difference in tint between a good
model and a bad model.
Nokia acknowledged the glitch last month via
its Facebook account and a U.K. discussion
forum. Customers in Europe were advised to
bring the phone to the nearest Nokia Care
center where support staff could examine it.
The company was mum about a launch date
for the fix but said it would tweet its followers
when the software update is available.
The Lumia 900 has seen strong demand in
certain regions, such as the U.S. But the phone
has been afflicted by a few problems.
An initial bug prevented users from
establishing a data connection. Nokia
responded by offering a $100 credit for both
new and existing customers, covering the cost
of a new Lumia 900. A few other minor glitches
have been found in the phone, according to
WPCentral, which thinks Nokia will fix through
the next software update.
