[Q] replacing defective screen? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Does anyone know if replacing the screen for the SGS3 will fix the pink tint and the ink spots on the screen.
And has anyone tried it?
PS: I can't warranty it.
Thanks

i suggest you hire professional help for this the pink spot could be a dead pixel or something and changing the screen could do the job

Screen issues?

Has anyone who tried out this phone tested it for the screen lines/blobs issue that the S2 had?
I would also like to know this too the yellow tint issue, and black blobs. I had the issue in both my SGS 2 black and White...though in galaxy nexus it was vey negligible but still there . I hope its not in SGS 3
There seems to be a pink tint rather than yellow tint.

Should probably wait a bit before buying this phone, who knows what the probability is.
Bump. People should know about this before buying the phone.
Most of the screen won't have tint problems . But still people can check the screen using lcd test code before taking it to home

What about black crush issues? Is it all pixellated when viewing dark videos or images?

I hate this on my S2. Hopefully in a few days when people start getting their phones we will have these questions answered.
LCD TEST CODE is *#0*#

Has any S3 owner checked the issue about the pixelization when viewing dark videos or images?

Yup! I received my SGS3 yesterday, and after seeing this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658601 I checked the Iron man Pepper Kiss video on Youtube and I did not notice any problems!
The pixelization is sometimes caused by poor encoding.
I received the phone yesterday.
Did the LCD tests.
All tests are crystal clear. RGB backgrounds look like glass and the black videos are deep blacks without pixalation of any form.
I also checked another thread talking about some kind of pixels that were appearing as different colour and this didn't occur either.
The screen works perfectly and it does look gorgeous despite that pentile screen debate.
If a phone doesn't perform as described by me (and many many others) then the phone is simply defective and will be covered by DOA.
Bumb:cyclops: sorry

Blue horizontal lines

I've had this phone for a couple of weeks and just noticed blue horizontal lines when I look at my phone from the bottom up but when I hold my phone facing me I dont see them, is it supposed to be like this?
Can someone confirm this? Or is this a defect
Thanks in advance

I have the same thing . On mine so you are not alone . I'm not sure if it's a defect tho

That is probably the digitizer grid for the capacitive touch sensing. It is normal and all phones (apart from a few that have in-cell touch) have it.

Help! Did I screw up my phone?

Hi could somebody tell me if I screwed up my screen repair? This was stuck on the phone and then I tried to get all the glass off of it but I don't know what the cable does. I bought the screen lens off of eBay but does this now mean that I've screwed my lcd digitiser now?!

Those are the lights for the bottom soft keys. I suggest you find a YouTube video on how to proceed before you go any further.
