[Q] screen issue - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, anybody have this issue? Whenever I scroll down the screen while reading page or just scrolling a menu, the down side of the screen turns a light blue due to it running out of space. it gets really annoying while reading and seeing the blue haze come out so often. Its also happened when scrolling to the right/left.
i think the issue come out after installing wave launcher
is it a malfunctioning phone or is this normal?
Thanks!

It's a feature of gb 2.3.5

This is normal. The 2.3.5 rom that I flashed added this, instead of the old bounce effect of 2.3.3. Your phone isn't malfunctioning

[Q] Strange display colours

Lately my phone began to show toxic colours, sometimes the whole screen has a green or a pink layer above the image or even a decreased resolution. After I turn off\on the display everything returns to normal or the display doesn't turn on at all.
I've been using a Bi-Winning V2 Rom on the OverStock 2.4.1 kernel for a month or so and didn't have any problems until now. This problem started while my phone was turned on, it didn't fall and no changes were made to it.
I tried to wipe cache\factory reset, flashed once again the same Rom but nothing changed. The phone can work normally for some time and then the display just doesn't turn on or displays a strange colours. I don't even know if the problem is in hardware or software.
Any suggestions?
hardware.

Odin back to Stock.......... if the problem persists then, you will know it is a hardware problem
If that fixes it the, flash a different rom............

Black screen after locking occasionally

I've had this problem on my GSII (SGH-i777) since playing around with ICS roms, in both AOKP and CMD.
What happens is, after locking it, or a program is supposed to wake it from a blank screen, nothing happens when pressing the power button. The phone is still on and the buttons on the bottom still light up and I can feel vibrations and sounds, but I cannot get the screen to come back on without rebooting.
I'm not sure what causes this and it seems to feel semi random, but I suspect it may be connected to the locking animation in some way introduced in ICS (the emulation of turning off a CRT monitor).
I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this problem and knows a good fix to avoid it (other than going back to stock firmware).
What app are you using that is supposed to wake your phone? Just my opinion but it sounds like an issue with the app.
PS. Crt off animation was introduced well before ics.

Try turning off CRT in system setting / ROM Control / General UI / uncheck CRT off animation. I have it off and never have a problem in AOKP
This guy probably didn't wipe everything before posting. Yes this includes your data.

[Q] Auto rotating for a second then back to normal when screen blanks out issue

Hi i have a problem with my S3 where, say i was typing a text out or on an app. The screen goes into landscape for a split second then goes black and then back to normal. This happened on my first S3 then i went and got it replaced and it does the same again.
I haven't a clue why its doing this i have auto rotate turned off and it still does this. Has anyone else came across this issue?
Im running 3.7 Wanamlite Rom with Siyah 1.6.8 kernel.
i tried moving to checkrom v5.5 HD and the problem happens on that too. I cant see it being another faulty phone seeing as only a week ago I went and got it replaced with another brand new RED S3.
I hope this is an easy fix cause really does get on your nerves when screen does this and i know its not normal or could it be just an issue with JB? thanks in advanced.

3rd galaxy s3 and still having this issue. Its the red model. It was working ok then out of the blue the phone would act as if its opening a landscape app and then reverts back to normal. this is really annoying as sometimes wen unlocking the phone it rotates to landscape and i have to lock and re unlock to get it back to normal. This happens even with auto rotate turned off and motion disabled.
is there a way to test and see if its a certain app thats causing this? cause no way 3rd brand new galaxy s3 and having the same issue. Thanks

Question regarding clean rom

I'm currently using the latest version of clean rom. Lately I have noticed that sometimes when I grab my phone without waking it up, there is kind of a light that comes on towards the top of the screen and it displays missed calls and missed texts the light stays on for a few seconds then fades away by itself. What makes this wierd is I have not been able to force this to happen and sometimes it does it and sometimes it doesnt. This happens prior to me waking up the phone when the screen is black. I think it might have something to do with a motion sensor. Any ideas on what feature this is.

It's called QuickGlance and can be found under Settings --> Motion. The way to activate it is to reach for your phone while it lies flat, covering the sensors in the top-right corner, you can pull your hand back and it'll show up. Interesting thing, if you use an app that forces auto-rotation, such as rotation locker or what have you, you can get the QuickGlance screen to show up in landscape.

Screen white unresponsive phone

I was on my phone using xprivacy and blocking Facebook permissions when I noticed my entire screen was this weird grey colour even the status bar it was all one colour the text hadn't changed though just the background, there were dots of red/ purple on it as well, then the screen just started getting whiter and brighter and lots of lines going across the screen appeared, I tried pushing any of the buttons but nothing happened so I pulled the battery and then rebooted the phone and everything appears fine. If anyone can tell my why this happened, if it'll happen again and if there is anything I can do about it I'll be very grateful
Thanks in advance
PS sorry if this has already been asked I don't have access to a PC for the next few days so I couldn't search

You're not the only one experiencing this.It used to happen on my s2 once in a while and i had to reboot it by taking out the battery.It happens on my nexus 4 as well,except that it reboots itself.I think its related to custom ROM/kernel being installed.Just a software glitch.

OK thanks do you know what could've caused this? (I mean obviously apart from custom ROM/kernel being installed anything you do on the phone or is it just random)
None of the root apps I had installed on the s2 are on the nexus4..nothing in particular.not that I remember of.
