Hi guys
On my SGS2 when the touch buttons are lite part of the light seeps through the gap of the hard button. Does anyone else have this?
I can only see it when it's pretty dark but its very annoying.
I don't have this :s

Yeah, I have it too, but it's not too bad and only visible from certain angles and in a dark room.

Yeah I sometimes have itbut almost rarely, and like the other guy said only from certain angles when I'm looking for it. I put pressure on the button in that direction and it disappears usually

Ive got this very slightly on the right hand side. I also notice when im reading a web page with a black background the very bottom left has a white spot/pixel, it goes away when you start scrolling. Anyone else got the same problem?

Glad im not the only one who has this. Worth returning over?

Personally It doesn't bother me, its hard to notice and even when I can see it, its really tiny. So to me not a problem

Im guessing you have Optus stock as well?
When you look at the touch button straight on can you see the light?
Mine has the same issue but i dont care.
I can only see it when I'm using the phone when it's completely dark
My wife has a mole but shes still beautiful, can we not get a little obsessed with perfection with our phones? It is after all the slimmest, lightest, dual core power house smart phone out there....forgive its quirks?

My phone did this at first but it went away after a couple weeks as the home button got better seated through use. Definitely not worth returning over.
same here, right hand side!
this was the reason for me to switch off the button lights in settings. looks better anyway
It has to be pretty dark...
didnt realise you could turn the light off

send it back, complain to samsung, demand they redesign the handset!
erm...
This will make it heavier and bulkier!!!
Happens to mine and there is NO PROBLEM with it. Be happy!

And more expensive. All these perfectly good handsets getting returned for new ones have to be paid for somehow.
I switched mine off looks so much better, per sonly I wish it was all black like the nexus s, i think that looks so sexy
Have it too, but dont matter !! I am a perfectionist too ( 620 euros it is for a phone !! ) but i think... i mean ... returning it for this????
If it is same as anyone elses in here its BARELY visible and you should try to find it again.. enjoy your phone. ( there are great chances of getting a same unit back, cause its a design thing i think )
Hey,
have it as well. But I don't really mind.

I have a Rogers Galaxy Note, rooted, but running stock.
Every night, at exactly midnight, it flashes on and off very quickly.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Nope

I do not know, I'm always sleeping at midnight. In the words of Bette Davis "Gettin' old ain't fer sissies!"
I'm usually up around midnight and I have not seen this. I'm on an AT&T Note though.
Your Note is possessed lol

What rom are u using? Maybe flash a different ron to see if a software issue. Or do a factory reset.

I'm running the default stock Rogers rom.
If you're on the east coast, midnight is coming up. Check it. To test, just have your phone locked and screen off at midnight, and watch it. It doesn't reboot.. just flashes on and off quickly.
It's quite possible there is an app I have installed that is doing this, so tonight I plan on checking it with logcat. I'll report my findings afterward (PST).
You sure its not notifying you something but I would go with the posses idea. I see dead people comes to mind.

doh! i was coding and forgot to plug in and check logcat. tune in tomorrow. sorry.
Its probably some app scheduled to do something at midnight over your wifi.
I know my Captivate used to do the same thing, any time the wifi was used, the screen would turn on briefly (less than a second) and turn off the screen while doing whatever it was doing over the wifi (like Beyondpod when it went to update my podcasts, the screen blinked on/off, then immediately after the screen turned off, it started checking for new episodes and downloading).
So it's either APOD, or it's my system. Those are the only two culprits. I'll uninstall APOD and report back tomorrow.
I have had my Galaxy S II for a while and have been absolutely loving it after upgrading from my Captivate, and haven't found the need to root it and load it up with custom roms JUST yet, but one thing that's been annoying lately is that when it is just sitting here not doing anything, the screen will randomly turn on for no reason, no notifications or anything and then turn off after a couple seconds. happens every couple of minutes generally but occasionally it will do it several times within a short amount of time. I was thinking one of my apps or something is responsible but I am unsure of how to isolate which is doing it and why. Hoping someone has had a similar problem and has gotten to the bottom of it, cause id like the screen to stay off when im not using it lol.
Probably wifi. Maybe one of your neighbors has a wifi signal that drops in and out and your phone keeps picking it up

just checked, wifi has been off all evening.
Maybe look for an app that will log what apps or processes are running and how long? Might help you to see what is causing your issue.
Other than that, im if no help. Hopefully we can get you done resolution soon bud.

Aside from this, sometimes I also see advertisement notifications which get really annoying too and I just don't know what app they are coming from. so I just went ahead and installed watchdog and maybe it shall help figure this out, thanks guys.

Instead of wasting the time by creating this thread you could have easily read the feedback in CheckROM thread.

Yeah why do you expect users to waste their time to answer your thread if you can't even bother to do some reading yourself? It's like standing in a red light and ask the car beside you like "dude.. Is it green yet? I don't want to waste my time to look.." you would do that? Or sitting in a restaurant and ask the table side of yours if it's any good because even if you have the plate with the exact same food on yours.. You are to lazy to just try?

Has anyone experienced overheating with there phone after flashing a ROM? My phone heats up very hot while not connected to wall. Very strange. I am concerned that it will cause damage.
... Ok? What does it matter what's happening to your phone if we don't know what you've done to it?
Give us some details man! (seriously though, we need the details so someone can help you out)

I felt this issue early with my phone in a daily use. I sent to AT&T store, revise the phone and give me a new one battery. Supposed to be a factory fault.
Actually, if I install a Rom connected to a power cord, I fell the phone heating, but it's only temporary.
Personnaly, I am not work worry about it.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Yes, I faced this 2-3 times on stock condition on the second day of purchase. I had to pull out the battery for some time to keep it cool as when ever tried to switch it off, the phone will reboot automatically on the next moment. Done few continuos factory resets solved the issue of heating up. Once I rooted it, the phone behaves properly.

You're on like ever post telling people they're posting the wrong things. Its really annoying, whats really clogging up the forums is complainers. Just get over it.
It happened on many roms, many kernels and many different cpu settings, so details wont help you. Sorry.

Hah, i just said that cus i thought i read something on another thread. I just hate when people are overly sensitive about stupid things it wastes so much time, and to make this post not a waste, i would like to let you all know..
I am still experiencing this issue everyday. Especially when I'm charging but sometimes randomly. Sometimes when i use the camera, definitely when i play graphically intensive games.

Naww. Unless you deliberately caused the issue it could be a hardware thing which totally isn't yer fault. See if they'll give u a replacement tell them the issue you are having and that you've already tried to troubleshoot it. And don't let them give u a damn slow rocket as a substitute lol its definitely not.

You do know that over heating can lead to expedited hardware degradation right?
It gets super hot, then choose, then super hot then cools... Not a great thing to have going on regularly.
Personally, I would remove all personal files, return to stock, upgrade to stock ICS and then take it in and tell them you want a replacement. Don't take the sh¡trocket. A gs2, oneX, gs3 or even a note, maybe, but that's it.

Define overheating. I know my phone can get really warm if I'm using a bunch of apps or things like Skype on 3G, especially the upper right portion of the back, near the cameras. If it gets too warm, I try to cool it just by holding my hand there covering all the parts that are getting hot (if the phone is warmer than your skin, your skin will cool it, simple physics), and when I start killing tasks after I'm done and let it rest for awhile, it'll cool down again. I wonder if my Otterbox Case exasperates the problem. But after hearing all the problems people are having with refurb units, I wouldn't trade my mostly perfectly working I777 for anything at this point.
As far as I'm concerned, if it's hot enough where it makes me think "holy sh¡t, my phone is freaking hot!", it's overheating. If it's warm not a big deal, that's gonna happen.
I've only had out overheat twice so far. The second time i don't know what happened but my phone had over 50% batt and when i went to pick it up 20 minutes later it was extremely hot to the touch and the battery was dead. Hasn't happened in over a month and I've had this phone for around 6 months now.
