I have searched around & cant seem to find much on this everything seems to keep coming up for the Nexus or S3.
Is zero shutter lag possible on the S2?
Thanks
no, it's hardware thing not software modification.

Come on man....Don't give him false information -.-
Of course you can add it. You can also increase the resolution of the phone, the size of the screen. And last but not least this site will show you how to get your phone to make you a sandwich!
**Sarcasm**
Have a nice day!
Quite a few years ago back when cameras on phones were starting to become the norm, a friend was looking in a phone shop. He was looking at a fairly basic phone which didn't have a camera. A salesman then came over and told him that whilst the phone he was looking at didn't have a camera, he could download one afterwards. The same salesman told me that the phone's screen could display 64k colours. I told him that I don't think I could even name 64 colours, let alone 64 thousand. Fun times.
I heard you can download a bigger battery onto your phone too (full instructions here)
= please delete =
yes its possible to have zero lag
i have an app on my s2 that can capture 12 pic's per second

Samsung Galaxy SII plus has Zero Shutter lag.
Its the same hardware with nfc
Maybe we will be able to port it over S2.
Fingers crossed

No, s2 plus has different hardware, it's not using exynos chip and the camera sensor is different too.. so yeah, we just can't add zero shutter lag to old s2 cause it's hardware thingy.. (though it would be great if it can lol)

I'm not sure you are referring to the issue that made the screen gradually faded to a lighter color on one side, that was a software issue fixed on recent ROM releases.
99% have that tint? Ive never seen it in real life... Mine is normal, no yellow/blue tint, I got it at release day.

I don't think I am that blind compared my screen to a new sg2 I don't see the yellow or blue ting I purchased mine Aug 3rd. Is anyone who purchased their SGII in North America having this issue or is it just the first release batch outside of North America that is having this problem? Some on asked for a screen shot so we can all see what your looking at how about it.

you know what they say thou beauty is in the eye of the beholder , so im guessing most people either a don’t notice it , or b simply live with it.
I showed my first phone which was quite bad to numerous people some people spotted it straight away and was shocked like me, others didn’t but did notice it when pointed out, but said they could live with it on another note they all noticed the pink spot instantly anyhow .....
I’ve had 2 now both from different batches and awaiting third tomorrow ive checked the device out in numerous shops and they all had it to various degrees along with smear / ghosting text (which not many people seem to complain about). Reminds me of when Sony released there flagship tv the x3500 followed by the led version the x4500 both of these flagship tvs had smear / ghosting. This was acknowledged as a draw back of that technology as the panel needed to warm up.
However Samsung haven’t said anything in relation to this i.e. if its a fault or a drawback with the technology which leaves most people who are unhappy with there device swapping it endlessly looking for a perfect / working model free from yellow tint or pink spot when in reality there is no such device.
thanks bcoz of ur replays.
but today i c one of my friends that have sgs2 and they sgs2 have not this issue )
i root and install cm7,criscelo,Villain,litening but i never c yellow issue in left side
NOW I AM LOOKING FOR A NEW SGS2 WITH OK LED :d

You can replace the screen a million times, the software is the culprit... the issue has been fixed by Samsung. They adjusted the screen sensors to distribute evenly the light intensity.
Fun test for yawl... If you find the "tint" noticeable... Go to display settings, turn OFF the option that says "Auto adjust screen power"
viola.
No more tint.
however, only a true black pixel is "off" now, and battery might suffer, I haven't played too much with it, but I noticed it.
It is a software issue, but the reason some people see it more often than others, is simply the color of the images and text that they display on their screen more often. OLED will always have "warmer" tones than a standard LCD, you can tweak the software to cool them, but they are noted for VIVID color, not accurate color

Hi guys so for some reason I can't take video anymore I believe hardware issue. Every time I try to record the camera top pieces makes an internal vibrating sound and live view mode is all blurry. Anyone know about this?
Would help and sometimes when I watch HD films or heavy duty games the screen freezes with looping audio clip. Prob also hardware
Rest of phone works fine please reply warranty already used once.

Well I know absolutely nothing about fixing hardware on this beast . But what would seem like it would work is to buy a broken i777 for parts off ebay or something and figure out how to replace the camera or whatever u believe may be broken. Adam Outler is a boss when it comes to ripping these bad boys open he may be able to help.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
My i777 has been doing that for months, almost the entire time I had it (got it in October). I thought it was common. It does it on every ROM I use. I don't know why the flashlight does it, but it must have something to do with focusing the camera. Sometimes when I open up the camera it look like a fisheye/wide lens, and makes the sound, until I tap to focus. And sometimes when I open the video camera it will make that sound and I have to switch to still pictures and focus and switch back. And even more weird sometimes when I open the camera for video it will look like I am looking through water, with wavy circles fluctuating, until I switch to stills, focus, and switch back.
Again I thought this happened to most. I don't have a problem 75% of the time, and you have to focus the camera anyway before you take a picture, so it resolves itself. It only is a real problem with video, but it happens with video far less often.
Guess I should try to get a replacement before my warranty runs out in October. Maybe like the Captivate, the early batches had some hardware issues, my wife and I both got Captivates with random reboot issue.

I dropped my phone once really badly with no visual damage and I believe after that it started. I have had almost identical issues with you but I believe most people don't get this issue. I can't record video anymore because of the wavy stuff and Yay I'm not alone! But my warranty was already used up so I guess I need to pry open my phone and deal with replacing something...

i just got my S3 and i m so worried and so sad people!
i got the pebble blue s3. i have issues with my screen. i ran the screen test and found the same dark spots on my screen when screen is black. there are lots of them. i dont have nice camera to take pic of those dots. they are really annoying because i surf the internet a lot and these dots are very visible specially in the dark!
the other issue is something with the viewing angle. when i hold the device right next to my eyes (as we all do most of the times) the screen seems to be more yellowish and the colors seem to be alot washed away! but when i change the viewing angle like just a little, i mean when i tilt the device just a little the colors get normal the way they should be!
the next thing is the pink tint. in the browser the white pages are EXTREMELY PINK! yes EXTREMELY PINK! that happens at the automatic brightness!
when viewing the black color on the sceen, when the capacitive touch buttons are on the light of the menu button seems to leave its light on the screen. and the blacks are NOT AT ALL BLACK!!!
people i am so tensed and worried! can someone help me out of these problems? i have read that the white S3 does not have any of this problem is it true? i have also read that the dark spots are because of the glu used and those would go away with time, but i dont believe in that! should i send the device to claim warranty and get it repaired? pls pls pls some one help me! i have spent all my money i had saved for the past 4 months for this set and i even sold my Galaxy Note for this! i am so much tensed! pls help me guys!
well jumping off a bridge will ease ur pain
You got a defective unit it happens. So send it back or get it repaired / exchanged. You spent a lot of money you should get a product that works as intended without defects. The sooner the better you'll be much happier. Best advice I can give you. All without the need to jumping off a bridge or if you do hope that you that you land on kyan to break your fall.

The block splotches are absolutely not indicative of a bad display.
They are present on virtually every OLED screen, ranging from the Nexus One's, to the PlayStation Vita's, to the Samsung Galaxy S3's.
I can't speak for your other issues, but people need to understand the splotches are common on pretty much any OLED. Some can see them easily, some seem to be unable to, but it does not mean the panel is defective.
Why are you on here? I see you just joined the site recently. How about you learn to be polite and if you can't, then leave.

You have to admit though that it was funny
I use an app called dead pixel test, and it allows you to cycle through several different solid coloured screns, like all white, all black, red blue etc. No probelms with my screen, but I have a screen protector on it now.
Does yours have a screen protector that could be affecting it? Otherwise just return it as faulty.
I also have the pebble blue and screen is amazing. No issues here. Did notice the marks on a completely black screen in a dark room once but it hasn't showed since. Didn't really bother me.

Hello, i just bought my i9300 a few weeks ago. All seemed normal when i noticed that when i was viewing a gray screen ( e.g. a game loading ) or anything that wasnt completely black, there were some spots in my screen. I thought at first that it was some graphics or glitch from the game, but then tried loading another game with a similar gray screen and they were still there. They arent scratches or anything like that ,it seems that its from inside the digitalizer. I dont know if i can even put a photo of that, because its not easily visible. My phone obviously has its warrany voided due to some rooting. If i flash the stock firmware, unroot it and run triangleaway, do you think i would be able to swap it for a brand new?
Hey mate, I have the exact same problem I keep thinking it's my eyes or something but I guess if your seeing it as well maybe its a problem with the device?
Do you also see the screen sort of flickering at certain points?
Well documented problem with many handsets..

That didn't fix anything for me. I finally e-mailed HTC and this was their response which also did not fix anything.
Safe Mode
1. Please turn off the phone.
2. Then briefly press the Power button to turn on the phone.
3. While the phone powers on, press and hold the Volume down button until phone loads the OS and "Safe Mode" should appear on the lower left part of the screen.
After you put it in safe mode, try using your phone, if it works perfectly, then the problem may be caused by an application your phone. Which you will need to remove the applications one by one to see which one is causing the issue. If the issue persists, please reply to this email so we can further troubleshoot and have this issue solved.
All I know is I'm about ready to sell/return this HTC One and go get the Galaxy S4. My S3 treated me fine and the camera was far superior.
Was told it's a software issue and the update isn't expected for at least a month. So until then I have a $600 phone with a useless camera. Returning this and going to the S4. Not sure why I doubted it when I loved my S3. Figured I would give HTC a try again from my Sensation 4G days but what a waste of time. I can say the build quality of the phone along with the screen were definitely the things that attracted me.
What about an exchange, since you just got it? Did you get it in store? If so .. you could test out the one they exchange it for while at the store. Mine works awesome, and many others are very happy with theirs. So it sounds like you got a lemon camera. And we all know there are some bad ones in all the phone models.

True. I actually returned it and went with the S4. I'll give HTC another shot once their next big phone comes out. I did find myself missing a bigger screen also. It may be lacking a few PPI compared to the One but it's just as nice. Thanks for the kind words guys.

I see that you already returned the One. But I do not see how it could have been a software issue. If you were stock, you should have had build 1.27.531!8. I have that build and my focus works fine. Sounds like you should have exchanged it because it was clearly defective. Too late now, though.

In my phone this strongly correlates with heat. Once the phone gets hot from being at high brightness or doing something graphically intensive it will not focus. Sometimes you can get it to work by giving it a sharp slap or pressing gently on the glass in front of the camera. If you let it cool down for a few minutes then it works. But it is definitely a physical problem.
I'm having the same issues. My first HTC One was fine but had a power issue so it was replaced with this one that will now not focus. I contacted HTC and T-Mobile and was told that there would be a software update in the future to fix the issue but there are no specified dates. I asked T-Mobile if they could exchange it since it's only 2 months old and was told I would have to wait on an upgrade or purchase at full price. I'm really not pleased about any of this.
