my eris has started to act very crazy. sometimes when on the main screen or any screen that has multiple slideable screens the phone will just automatically start to scroll left. i've also noticed that the trackball has started to not work to the left. could these be related, if so how or what can i do to fix this?
Mine did the same thing. no fix, the phone is just breaking.

Has anyone else on E970 (or others?) noticed a significant lag on pattern-unlocking the screen? It's very visible on mine as the 'In The Nexus' live wallpaper literally freezes up for a few seconds.

Yep. Most common occurrence is the screen lights, but stay blank. I can get it to come on by pushing the power button short, and then I see the off animation, or get around by holding the power button down, to get the shutdown menu, and then cancelling.
Hasn't happened for a while though. I think there are some correlations with this behavior and any flash occurrence running before locking your phone.

I updated to The Base earlier today and BANG! The lock-lag disappeared with the AT&T bloatware. And my Wifi tethering works perfectly!
Coincidence? I think not. :silly:
Base + pimp scripts + nova launcher = what is lag?
I see the lag in pattern unlocking specially when the phone is connected to charger. I have always had this problem with my retired Atrix 4G too.
Any fix for this?

Same here. Not just the lock screen but overall scrolling lags when connected to the charger. I thought the phone was messed up and was ready to return it. But once unplugged it runs smooth.

Hey Guys,
I have had my Galaxy S3 for around 4 months now, and I often use Skype to chat. Skype doesn't seem to allow the Display to time-out, so this often means that the Display is left on a static image for long periods of time. I didn't think this was going to be a problem, until recently I noticed that during one of the times I have fallen asleep whilst on Skype, the screen has been burnt and now I can see the display picture and Skype buttons burnt into my screen, and once you see that sort of thing, you can't un-see it.
So I was just wandering; Has anyone else had problems with screen Burn-in? Any ideas on how to resolve this? Would this be covered under warranty?
I am currently trialing an app that claims to fix screen burn-ins, but I am doubtful. Still worth a go non-the-less. I wouldn't be so hacked off, had there been some kind of warning from Skype or Samsung that there was even a possibility of this happening, as I was under the impression that this wasn't a common problem nowadays, I never had this issue with my old HTC Desire S.
Regards,

Yeah it is Samsungs Display Technology it has the burn in issues. That is sadly a fact.

please ask questions in the correct section
In nearly all cases you dont actually see burn-in but ghost image due to display technology.
That problem also persists in Plasma tv's and old crt screens.
Such apps are usually capable of diminishing the effects to a level which is not noticeable.

I have the same thing - burn in on the screen - in my case it's from Opera Mini. The menu of Opera Mini in the bottom of the screen is burned in. Also I have burn in from Status Bar. I tried a lots of apps that have a goal to solve this but non of then actually did anything.
Like stated above it is Samsungs Display Technology that has those issues. IPS LCD screens do not have that problem.

So recently my z ultra has been acting up there's a single black line that flickers across the screen at time and then the screen turns sort of white and whatever image is on the screen at the time of this happening stays there if you scroll to another home screen or open an app it eventually goes away if you turn the screen on and off multiple times but then it happens again sooner or later......i will upload pics or a video later to give you guys a better idea on what im talking about

If the screen is not all white then you have LCD problem.
If all white that's mean your LCD is good,maybe try flash another ROM or factory reset.

Sounds like you're having the same problem as me. You only have a single line though, while 2/3 of my display is like this. Mine gets like this whenever it's a little under room temperature, and it's a hardware defect according to Sony.
Post some pictures though. It could be software related (if you're lucky).

My XZU has this 1x1 cms 'purple cloud' at top mid center of screen all the time. I see it at the phone boot animation also. Its not captured on screen. So I guess its an LCD burn mark
Its visible only at medium and high brightness on a black background. Not on white background.

Just checked out your video, and i'm having this issue too. That's called "ghosting", and that means that the response time of the screen has gone to hell. The issue gets triggered on mine when the temperature drops a little.
Try this:
- Is it functioning normally in room temperature? If yes, put the phone in your refrigerator for 2-3 minutes and see if it's still functioning properly. If not, well.. then you're having the same issue as me, and i've talked to Sony, and it's a hardware defect and you'll have to use your warrenty and get a new screen. I sent mine in for repairs today, so i'm crossing my fingers.
IF you decide to send it in for repairs, remember to call them and ask them to do whatever triggers the issue, or else they'll simply re-flash the firmware and call it a day. That's what happened to me the first time, and you don't want that to happen

Alright, so it's the same issues as i have, and it's a production error according to Sony, so you'll have to send it in for repair. This is strangly enough only the second case where this happens, that i've read or heard about (including my own Ultra), so it doesn't seem to be that big of an issue. It could simply be an issue on a batch of Ultras that we got. It's a really strange defect though.
Alright, so I got my Ultra back yesterday with a new screen, and the problem is solved. I tested it by leaving it in my refrigerator for about 5 minutes, and there were no signs of slowdowns or other defects, so that's the way to go

Has anyone noticed a lack of response from the touchscreen at times? I initially thought it might be my tempered glass screen protector that was causing the problem. However, I've noticed that when it becomes unresponsive, if I press the lock (power) button and lock then unlock the screen, it begins responding normally again. This issue seems to come and go.

I haven't noticed anything like that but I've only had the phone for 2 days... I hope it's nothing major...

I was getting the same issue when I first got the phone. Seems to be better now after a couple weeks of use. It was real bad with the otterbox defender and the crappy plastic screen cover. It still happened once I put my icarez .2mm tempered glass on, but it was better. Now I hardly notice it.

You mean like playing candy crush and not being able to swipe the colors you want... Had the same issue on 2 different g3s..yup there is definitely a issue imo
For me, it starts with the back button on the nav bar not responding. Then random places on the screen won't respond either. Also, I will have problems with the LG keyboard as well. But, like I said, locking and unlocking will fix it temporarily.
Sent from my LGLS990 using Tapatalk
Yeah the back button and space bar are usually the most noticeable and occasionally along the sides. That was the worst when I had the defender on it, but that's always an issue with the defenders.

I have the same issue. It happens With my keyboard a lot. Like a 2 inch offset on where I touch to what button gets got sometimes. And it's fine if I rotate screen, but goes back exactly the same when I put screen back to landscape. It Does seem to happen more often when the back button stops responding too.

I've switched back to Nova Prime from stock launcher and so far it seems to be better. Will update if problems persist.

I've gone with nova also. Much smoother..
Odd. I have been using Nova the whole time and had the issues
After a full day of usage, I can definitely say, I'm not experiencing screen issues since switching back to Nova.
I only use nova... Lol..I have had issues
I've been using Smart Launcher Pro since I got the phone and haven't had any of these issues. I also have a glass screen protector since day one and no screen response issues... Only hardware issue i've had is a faint crackling in the earpiece during some calls.
Well so much for that...Started happening again today.
What ive done is go on www.thinklg.com log in and report the issue to lg.

My touch screen gets bugged when I attempt to unlock a pattern on it. The only solution that I have tried is to lock and unlock the phone again. It's still a hassle though :/
i have responsiveness issue but i cant tell if its the app or the phone its never on the homescreen. the only issue that really drives me crazy is when its dark and im trying to unlock my phone it unlocks and then turns off over and over!

I have the same exact issues with navbar keys on both of my G3's. I changed to Kii keyboard and the same issues on either keyboard. Plus quite often "like now" when I type the words are missing until I scroll the screen. Stock, Nova, Next launchers all do it. No case and Zagg tempered glass. Flip case on the other.
I hope it's not hardware related and we get some software fixes soon. Very frustrating.
I'm experiencing this now on my new LG G3. Have any of you found a solution and/or stopped experiencing this problem?
I will try Nova, even though someone else said the problem came back for them.
It's pretty annoying for my brand new phone to be doing this.
I changed my cache to "art" and it helped. But sprint issued out a new update and that killed "art" caching. So I went back to delvik cache and screen lag is gone now.
