I assumed the AMOLED is made vy Samsung. But not sure.
Again yes i know it's not a "screen"
What i was implying was that that the one making the screen is the same one adding the layer. Just sounds like a no brainer me. Though i'm not all that sure what we are even talking anymore.
For mass produced AMOLED screens there's really only two options LG and Samsung, both large screen suppliers for Nokia. Most likely candidate for this thing imo being LG.

New i9001 SGS1 Plus has SAMOLED again.
