Is your Android smartphone's illustrious AMOLED panel starting to suffer from those dreaded burn-ins? Welp, it's a normal part of the device's accumulation of wear and tear. It's not so normal, however, to have burn-in show up on your screen a week or so after buying the phone - which is what some owners of early Nexus 6 units, sadly, have been complaining of for some time.  There is light at the end of the pixel, however. Chances are your AMOLED device is still fairly new - unless you're still rocking the original Nexus S or Galaxy Nexus like a boss - and therefore, the burn-in is not that deep and glaring of an issue. Hence, you can let the clever little app called AMOLED Burn-in Fixer have a try at curing the nasty problem. Mind you, though, it will be useless to those who have a non-Android 5.0 AMOLED screen smartphone, as the app requires Lollipop to function. It's not about being cutting edge - it's merely that ABF relies on Lollipop's built-in "Invert Colors" functionality to set those color-inaccurate pixels straight, somehow cancelling the wrong colors out. 

While it doesn't sound like some magical software wonder worthy of mythical status, the solution apparently worked well enough for at least 30 people who gave it five-star ratings. And the app is free, so you won't lose anything for trying it - apart from having to look at a negative image of everything on your screen for some time. AMOLED Burn-in Fixer needs to be left running for stretches of, say, 30 minutes. There is no time schedule allotted - your screen could like new after five minutes, or after 30 minutes, or after several 30-minute sessions - each case is different. 

If you're unsure you actually have a burn-in problem, you can use the app's bundled test to check out how your screen looks against a grey background. That should reveal any ghostly, burning image issues you may have with your display right off the bat.
