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.

Hi Ministig
I've got the white spot/pixel issue,only noticed it when I was looking at another site which had a very dark blue background
Miss Diva
I've been searching on google and on here and can't seem to find a thread on it.
My home button led seems to leak half way into my display when i'm viewing a black screen.
The screen would display a black image and having the buttons on makes the home button leak on the screen
It is really annoying... Anyone else have this issue? it looks like a lightsaber on my phone...

Given where you sent this message from, I think you may be in the wrong forum.
If not, I can't say I've had such an issue, but apart from using a mod to turn off the LEDs for good, there's probably not much you can do.
i'm using my hd2 because I just got my vibrant from Samsung for a screen replacement....
No one has a problem if the led from home leaking?

haha thats what everyone would think but it had this problem before i even sent it out
thanks for your help!
Exact same problem with the home key, gradually learnt to live with it
How bad is yours? I just need to feel better about it lol
My gf is not as bad as mine
Sent from my HD2 using xda premium
In complete darkness it gets to about half of the screen. In normal light its not as bad.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Yea I have the same problem, My gfs doesnt. I think its a factory defect when they are putting it together. One little pinhole in the paint that seperates the softkeys from the rest of the screen and boom, you have led glare half way up the screen.
I had 3 vibrants replaced an they all had same problem but I dont care buttons are off most of the time
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I have this problem but it's very minor. I barely see it when dark. Do they just give you a new vibrant for replacement? Were you able to force them to let you do like an upgrade to a better phone or something?
no they replaced the chrome bezel and the housing + the display and glass...
It's practically new now..

Same exact thing here. The home button leakage is on most(if not all) vibrants. But it's only noticable in near or in pitch dark really. Using 2.2.1 roms turn off the lights while not being used but for some reason, that particular build on whatever rom always decreases sensitivity to the point where going back to used applications(holding home) doesn't work while the processor is being used extensively(800-1ghz) which is REALLY annoying. Anyone else by chance?

Since doing the work it too much, Ilm sure they instead give you a refurbished vibrant and used your old one for parts. In other words, Samsung didn't repair anything for yours but gave you another vibrant(which could be using parts from various sources).
It's the same imei and the same way the home button leaks... I also have a minor scratch on the camera which mine still has

Picked my One up today to replace my freshly broken Nexus 4. So far so good, but this home "button" registers about one out of five presses. Anyone else seeing this behavior? The back button works fine every time.

Got a screen protector on it?
The sensitivity is a bit low for it to register perfectly. Happens on mine.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I sure do! I guess I will try peeling it back and see if it helps.

I have no screen protector and my home button doesn't register often either. Also when trying to touch places in the standard browser it doesn't register immediately. Starting to think there's a defect in screen or software.

I'm having the sane issues it does it with the back button as well. Did it before I put the screen protector on it. It doesn't help that they sit so close to the screen. When I start tapping frantically trying to make it work I end up pressing whatever is right above it on the screen. Thinking about returning it to try another but if it's a common problem I don't want to waste my time. It's not too bad usually at least one of the two buttons will register if the other one won't

Yeah it's my back button as well, I thought about replacing. It seems that quite a few people are having the issue. I don't know should I try and replace or if it's a software issue.

I know I just put the screen protector on along with a carbon fiber skin. The idea of having to go and deal with the people at AT&T alone makes me want to just deal with it. Also afraid I'll just get another one

I agree, if the issue is only on our variant then it could be software or hardware. I have no idea what to do.

Me neither. I suppose deal with it and wait to see how common it is and if any dev can fix it. I'm waiting to unlock and root anyway

I had the same issue on my device. It took three swaps to figure out it wasn't the phone but, the Zagg HD screen protector I had on it. Once I took it off, everything started behaving as intended,
I noticed last night that my Zagg screen protector still had some water bubbles (very tiny ones) near the home button. So today after another night the bubbles are gone and the home button works well enough I can assign a double tap short cut.
Never had any issues with the back button, just for reference.

Noticed the issue as well. Saw it mentioned in a recent review of the phone. You have to be really precise because the buttons are so small.

I'm almost 100% sure it has to do with the screen protector.
I was using an Otterbox Defender case which has the screen protector with the soft keys uncovered. I was using the phone without a hitch. But this morning I decided to use a different screen protector other than the one provided by Otterbox and that screen protector covers the soft keys.
Now I'm having issues with the sensitivity of the soft keys.
Somehow covering the soft keys with the screen protector affects the sensitivity level of the soft keys. I'm thinking of uncovering the soft keys just to finally confirmed that, that is the problem.

Same problem on Sprint variant. I went to the store and the display model also had same problem. Neither had a screen protector.
This is either a widespread hardware defect or a widespread software problem.
Some have said the latest update to the Taiwan variant fixed it.
RE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245637
I have had the issue as well and I believe it's software, rather than hardware. If my back button freezes and I turn the screen off and then back on, it works fine. It only seems to do it when I "overload" the back button in an app that needs it a lot, like this one.

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

You are seeing the digitizer it is normal every phone I have owned had this

So I noticed on my droid sms if I turn my auto brightness off and keep my screen on the brighter side and tilt the phone a certain way I see a green dot. When I til it to the right I see green, then red. The other way I see red then green. Straight on and if I tilt the top of the phone towards me the dot is no longer visible. I doubt its a stuck pixel due to how it acts. It is NOT visible on black or any other color from normal viewing angles. I saw a similar effect on my Razr HD when I had an otterbox on it due to a weird texture on the screen protector. Thanks for any help!

Do you have a case that is putting pressure on the back of the phone. Dots appearing are usually from pressure being pushed on the back of the phone.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I have the seidio surface case, but its literally like the size of a pixel. Its there without the case on as well. I remember seeing someone post about the HTC One having a similar problem and came to the conclusion it was an abnormality under the glass in the glue or something. I have a TINY piece of dirt under the digitizer as well but every other DNA I have owned had multiple dead and stuck pixels, horrible capacitive button bleed, backlight bleed, or extreme uneven backlighting. Most of these were a combination of pixels and backlight. So I'm keeping this one, just wondering if anyone else noticed this.

Nvm? I just find it odd it disappears at normal viewing angles. On my 32" from a few years ago I have a stuck green sub pixel and its only visible if I look directly at the screen head on. It wouldn't only appear at an angle if it was a stuck pixel, right? It also seems when I use Auto Brightness it is almost impossible to find, even at an angle. Its still there just need to use shaper angles. Its also a LOT dimmer than say, at 50-100% in the dark. During the day its almost not there when the screen gets brighter. In the sun it looks like there might be something above the spot but I'm not sure. Anyone else having this issue? It took me almost a week to find it.

I didn't read your entire post.
Anyway, the pixels are so close together I can't imagine it being too noticeable. If you can see the green pixel at a certain brightness keep it at that brightness and run a dead pixel fixer.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Well its not thay I see a green pixel. When I look at the screen normally its not there at all, at any brightness. If I tilt it away from me and to the left or right the dot becomes visible. To the right its green and then red if I tilt it farther. If I tilt it to the left it goes from red to green. They aren't bright. I had a DNA with a stuck green pixel and a stuck red one and this definitely isn't a stuck pixel. If it is, its news to me. They were obvious on everything. This one can't be seen unless I view my phone from an angle.

Edit 2: I don't recommend it but you can rub the screen with the cap of a sharpee wrapped in something soft. This can damage the screen, so its up to you to try. I wouldn't worry about it if you can't see it during normal usage though.
Edit: you'll obviously have to rub kind of hard but use your best judgement.

Actually the blue works. No black dot on blue.

Just checked all the colors. No black dots on any color, no stuck or dead pixels show up, until on gray or black at an uncomfortably odd angle this odd spot shows
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I don't think its a problem unless your usually looking at your phone at an odd angle. If it really bothers you, you can always try to get a warranty replacement, but I severely doubt they would replace your phone for one broken pixel.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Yeah, plus I'm 99.9% sure its not broken or stuck... Again because it works on all colors like it should. I was just wondering if anyone else experienced this odd occurrence.
