I was using my galaxy tab 10.1 and my s3 was lying beside it. A message came. I was eager to know who was it. I opened it, the message said that my friend was ill, i was a little disappointed, during my sad time, my eyes turned to my tab, and what did i saw, i couldnt beleive my eyes. I had never seen such a thing, i felt dissy for a moment, i went and took some cold water, i relaxed for a moment, than decided to spend some time out, met my friends, but still during the night i had nigtmares of what i saw, it seems i was going to get swallowed in the white.....
Ok lets cut the story straight, no drama, the screen seems to have a yellowish tint,white doesnt seem to look so good... Plz help me out i cannot sleep....

More info please?
Thank you :fingers-crossed:
Anyone that uses Siyah kernel can tell something about screen enhancement? Is it the same thing you can do with Screen Adjuster or better?

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.

And you've seen 5,999,999 phones to be able to draw this conclusion? Some people have problems and in certain regions exchanges seem to be coming from the same batches so I can see why it may seem widespread. It's not or more people on the forum would be *****ing.
Mine had this issue and after replacing screen it has it again but little less. Mine frend has it too. so conclusion is only blind people think they dont have it

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.

None of tge SGS II has a yellow lcd display issue.... the SGS II doesn't have lcd but oled
Anyway it's a non-issue, if you really don't like the color balance of your display you just change it using chainfire3d pro

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
THANKS

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

Weli i have the latest software there is xxxkh4 but the issue remains
I noticed that last night when I was installing ICSEuphoria on my Vibrant, I saw what looked like a picture of a face maybe a millisecond on the screen. I thought "wtf was that!".
Today I was doing a fresh install of the same ROM and this time I saw a flash of a picture of a woman perhaps. I saw red lips and some words but was unable to figure it.
Has anyone seen these before while installing ICS? Maybe it's a prank from the programmers, testing our visual skills?

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.

yeah u r right. i guess my set is faulty. but i thought this might be something that would get ok with time. but that does does not make any sense. if those dots were something related to the glue, those should have been vanished by now as the set is old now. i mean it should have been produced at least like 1 or 2 months ago.
man i am ruined! i feel really so so bad! i just got up its 7 here in the morning and i am so badly hurt! and great news is that today is complete shutter down strike here in my city Karachi. so all the market and whole of the city is shut down. so i cant go to the store and return the device! HELL TODAY IS ONE OF THE WORST DAY OF MY LIFE!

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.

If today is the worst day of your life... your a sad sad person. Its a phone for goodness sake! .
Get over it and get it exchanged if your not happy, but seriously whining like the above makes you look very silly as your acting like an 8 year old with a tantrum.
My s3 has faults too, like the front facing speaker isnt flat and sits at an angle... but you dont hear me whining....
These are a mass produced product and there will always be faulty units... so dont fret and go and get another one

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..

Huh? I hope you are talking about Samsung and her Baby i9300 ?
For a couple of weeks,my display is acting strange, getting darker and darker. It started with a yellow line in the top right corner, who go bigger and bigger,covering the whole screen now. I found on google other persons with this "yellowish screen" issue, and it seemed to be a faulty lcd. The problem on my phone is that besides the yellowish screen,it has very dark shadows too, making everything almost imposible to use. I also noticed that after i lock the phone, the yellowish blur dissapears for half a second, like nothing happened; also, i can see "remains" of some apps that i used, like a name from my sms conversation,along with the call and attachment button,even if i closed the app, the lock ring,my keyboard,etc. I would appreciate your help,thanks!
P.S some photos attached,sorry for bad quality.
I had the same thing after my phone fall on the floor. Screen replacement will help....

Nope,sorry dude.But if you live in Romania(Like me ),I recommend you to simply buy a new screen from eBay,as it would be more expensive to go to a service center.
