My phone screen developed a teenie tiny purple spot below the power button 2 weeks ago that that has now grown and grown to the point that there is a purple band from the camera arcing down to about an inch from the bottom right. The purple band is about 1/2 inch wide, and everything inside the band is a washed out grey, and you can see MASSIVE ghosting and burn in in that area. I bought my phone outright for $599 from Walmart months ago. What can I do??! Is there a fix for this? What causes it? Please help. I can almost not read things in the upper right. Its getting worse by the day.

Bezel-less displays on phones, while sexy, are not practical. You'll be inadvertently touching the edges of it all the time, hell I already do that a lot on my GS2.
fake, the glass it to close to the side and would make it not practical and break easy. Cool design but i highly double it, easy to photoshop

I the best price i have seen for a Screen without the bumper is 249 300+ with the bumper around the screen.
its not really hard to change out either. Changing just the bumper is harder than changing just the screen, especially if the other screen is cracked and you are not trying to save it.
parts are out there though.
i have dropped mine 7 times now, and plan on throwing it against the wall here in about a month and getting square trade to give me another device, or the replacement cost.

People like this cost the rest of us more money for legitimate issues and also are the reason warranty service is under greater scrutiny.

- Was brash and arrogant when people actually offered him some advice.....

Thread closed, there are too many overly critical posts and posters in here to be constructive.
If you have nothing good to say, then do not say it. Be respectful in your posts, or log off.
So I think it's been about a year since I remember those threads popping up with white note users seeing pressure cracks around their screen. I was one of them and just unfortunately accepted it. I figured a little crack was no big deal.
But.. how many do you have now?
I'm at 16.

I'm up to 9 cracks on my white Note. This is the 2nd one too.
I've had an otter box on my white note since I got it went to a bar out in Oakland and dropped it down an impressive flight of stairs. I now have a nice two inch crack from speaker to front camara. Phone still works like a champ though.

never had this problem with mine or my wife's. Of course you could always go BT and not worry about it.
Had the same problem awhile back I think it had dirt in it because I blew in it and it worked fine afterwards. Don't know if that will help but its worth a shot.
