Anyone have this problem? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not even sure it will show on the screenshot. Grey horizontal lines along the bottom of the screen. Sometimes it is an opaque block. The screen is still responsive underneath it. A soft reset improves it. But it's getting steadily worse.
Thanks.

If it's not showing in the screenshot then it's probably hardware related.

Hey, thanks for your reply. Hardware as in unfixable, does the screenshot seem OK to you? I can't tell as I permanently have the lines.

Screenshot is perfectly fine.
Seems like your screen is starting to die....
Does it seem like the lines are better when you turn on the phone after being turned off for a while....??
From my experience when a screen goes like that it will get worse the warmer the device is..
If your still under warranty send it off for repair and it won't cost you a thing.

Yes, that's it exactly. Not under warranty and screens cost £150!

Return it lol. As the above poster said, it's a hardware fault, nothing you can do about it.
If you see that line even when booting up your GS III then i guess its a hardware issue.

Help.

I got a GS2 for free, but it has screen burn in pretty bad. Any ways to fix it or atleast make it easier to deal with.

replace the screen?
I doubt the LCD can be fixed, as the liquid crystals are "dried" In a fixed position now, your best bet is to replace the screen.

Cm9.1 stable.
Have you gone into settings and adjusted anything? I was on ics for about a week, don't remember your options.I'd make all the settings the highest they can go. Try a better camera app from the market.

No. I run Cm9.1. The warranty is void.
They won't know if you return. To stock unroot we don't check at my store.

There IS a film on it. Only some notes have them. My gf got hers at best buy, same as me. Hers black, mine white. Hers had the film over the camera lens, mine didn't.

There could be other problems, better go to a service center for assessment.

Possibly a hardware fault, you may have to take it to a store. But are you using a custom ROM? If yes, can you give more details?
This happened quite in surprise I was watching a video in YouTube with the charge cable connected and suddenly the screen went crazy and then the problem a started.
It works at time but not all

Are you on the stock ROM? Or have you rooted the device and installed a custom ROM?
Digitizer is dying. You will need to replace it.
