An other idea is that the capacitor or whatever component giving the charge to the grids, is deteriorating and preventing a proper discharge.
Note that I have only basic knowledge of electronics. Is there someone here that could explain the working properties of eink displays? Also I would like to know how greytones are achieved .

Greytones? Maybe when the particles are on their side? So the're black and white and dus creating a grey illusion.
Like I said before, when my battery was low the screen started to be dull. The black status bar was showing grey spots. As soon as I attached it to the AC it started slowly getting better until all was fine.
