What are these lines on my screen? (Picture included) - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I have this line on the bottom left of my sgs2 screen. It is not kernel or rom related as I have tried almost all of the kernels and alot of different roms.
It is shown clearly on grey or black backgrounds.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Someone know if this can be fixed?

I have the same issue
and it's definitely hardware related. I can't be bothered to reset my phone back to full stock firmware and send it off for repair, I try not to let it bother me. It's not affecting how the phone works.

what they cudb
when i have been installing roms in the developers options or somewhere theres a way to test your touchscreen something or other i remember its pointer location is it ticked
go to >settings
>developer options, (scroll down till you see pointer location in descriptions of what each option does)
>untick box should disappear
this assuming you rooted phone and got options there if not im stumped dude (et)

i think you have the same problem as me,i have a mark on the screen that shows on grey backgrounds like the logo of super amoled and stuff in the sticker of the phone maybe later ill upload a picture

Looks like the display has been sloppy with a water.
Warranty does not help in such situations...

Zombie Lands Notification Spam

Just got an unexpected "message" in the notification area. From the icon in the bar (Green bubble with smiley), I suspect that it was GO SMS.
The highlighting is theirs, not mine!

A quick search found http://androidforums.com/android-lounge/569712-spam-notification-area.html that also believe that it was a GO product.
If that is the case, too bad -- they had good product, but seem to be pushing their own cloud (can't backup your SMS/MMS locally any more), and now, perhaps, other products a bit too heavily.
Can anyone else confirm the origin of this?
Is there a way to determine where it came from, should it appear again?
(Unfortunately it had rolled off logcat by the time I thought to check there)
Edit -- Addons Detector identifies GO Contacts EX as "Custom PushAds (Bobgame)"
Thanks for the AdDetector.
This detect GO Weather with the same spam.

thanks for the post.
I just had this notification and was familiar with some programs spamming but as I haven't installed anything in weeks I was a tad confused.
I've been using GO items religiously due to non-standard DPI and the OEM apps not displaying correctly, but now I'm off to find new apps to do the same.
Shame too, as they *were* a decent brand. too bad.

[Q] Purple-ish Capacitive Buttons? Get it replaced?

Hey guys I received my HTC One earlier today and I noticed a couple of things, one, there are small gaps between the polycarbonate and the speaker grill and my capacitive buttons seem to have a purple-ish hue to them. it almost seems as if they are not completely lighting up. Has anyone else had this issue?
If not should I go ahead and get it replaced?
The only reason I ask is because when I went to the AT&T store, the display model had the same issue.
By the way, they look sort of like this, except more purple:

Mine have somewhat of a hue.
They look like this:

or you can get it replaced,

Unexplainable NFC difference between two S5's

So, check this out, it's weird... I've got two S5's, same ROM, with a weird difference. Take a look:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
First, note that NFC is on, but there's no icon in the status bar. Second. note the advanced menu option. Now look at this one:
Notice there IS an NFC icon up top but there is NO advanced menu item. Every value on the About screen is identical, so they're definitely on the same version. Neither has had any sort of hacks applied... they ARE both rooted and I actually did the change to make the SD card writable, I guess that counts as a hack, but that's it. All the same apps disabled on both and I haven't been able to even find any settings differences.
I can't explain these differences. Note that NFC works between the two, so clearly it's on even though there's no icon on the first phone. I've tried clearing cache on both, reboots obviously, makes no difference. Flipping NFC on and off also doesn't change anything.
It's really just an annoyance but I HAVE this sort of little thing, it'll bug me until I have an answer. Any ideas? Thanks!

Someone from Alcatel or JRD?

Hi guys, I'm searching for help from someone that's an employee (if there's one on this forum), to explain how can they tell me that the screen gets yellow-ish on it's borders and flickering black horizontal bars over the upper border and the bottom one. In some minutes, it gets ok but the color doesn't get back as it should be. My acknowledge tells me that the display chip is crashing and/or something is going wrong on the screen itself.
What should I do?
Why do they told me it's because rooting? It's really stupid and ridiculous.

Those bars where flickering/blinking for some minutes.
You can notice it better right here.
Here you can see two totally black borders at the screen right and left upper margins.
It's running on TWRP because, scared, I shutted it down when I saw the screen running like this and then restarted on recovery to check if it's a software error.
Help me a hear me please.
I got my English skills unused for some time, sorry for the grammar, hehe.

I am unable to access your screen picture but my tablet is perfectly normal and has none of the aberrations you describe. I was in a shop yesterday and handled the two display models and they were fine too. So I would suspect a fault with yours.
Here are the pics http://imgur.com/a/mpuTI#0
So your tablet doesn't have any of this when you tilt it?
I noticed a rainbow effect when I first got mine, but now I don't see it at all unless I really look for it.

No, none of that. Using the same Google page,I have tilted it in every direction and it is a clean high quality IPS screen with no artifacts.
