Hello everyone
I didn't have screen guard installed but only the protective covering. Now it is scratched a lot and I wanna change it. Can I simply remove it and then install a new screen guard? And do non-stickey screen guards come for our phone? Even with least amount of sweat, screen gets sticky and its impossible to move finger over it. Any suggestions?
By non sticky I meant kinda ones we have on s3 and iphones
Yeah, You can simply remove it. Xperia x10 has something like plastic screen, so it will always be sticky and will stop responding with water on it

Dont we have some non sticky screen guard? I asked some people but they said no...
I never changed that but I think there's no non sticky protection for our screens. Even on my sgs2 it's still sticky

It becomes very annoying if you are playing game without ac in summers when screen starts sticking. I am a hardcore gamer and whenever ibsit for gaming, 2 hours easily pass
Buy iGloves
Nah, I'm just joking, You can't do anything. Maybe there's some special screen protection without this effect but I don't know. If Google doesn't help You then nothing can

Alright my sister got a sgs2 about 2 months ago, now I went to help her with something (because I have an sgs2 too and she's bloody unless with it), I noticed a scratch on the screen, its only small and isn't very deep but it annoys me the fact that she bought this phone and now she's bloody scratched it! Will she be able to get the screen fixed or replaced or something for free? It isn't bothering her son doubt she'll pay. Cheers.

Can you see the scratch when using the phone or just when you literally search it?
If you have to search it, then I have good news for you.
I have the same and fixed it with a screen-protector. You won't be able to see the scratch anymore.

If it's just a hairline then buy a decent screen protector and it won't show. Worked for me.

Hey guys,
I dropped my phone the other day from 50cm on wooden floor (i have tpu case on it) and noticed that the screen is now a little bit up from the body right at the bottom right and I have now light leak from the back bitton ((
Screen is sticking out like 0.5mm
nothing major I guess, but was wondering if someone has taken their baby apart and knows if this is easily fixable? I guess it's just the glue, doesnt stick to the screen anymore, but not sure
Any suggestions appreciated, thanks )
Pic is bad quality sry

Can you take a close up photo. Someone might be able to help or suggest if they have a better idea.

With a case on you'd never know it.
Maybe somethings just popped and needs reseating?
Maybe there's a YouTube video somewhere?
Sorry can't help any further. Best of luck.

Crazy idea but might as well turn off the backlight buttons under settings. That should help to ease your eye strain from that light leak

Hey guys,
I just noticed this in my pictures yesterday. There is a purple line and what could be the edge of the camera lens showing up in the left corner of my pics. I haven't dropped the phone so I don't know why this issue has shown up recently. My note is about two months old give or take a week. I called customer service and they want me to factory reset my phone. I don't see how that will fix a possible hardware issue. So I have not done this yet. Any ideas or suggestions??
Thanks

First off welcome to XDA! It looks like a scratch to me where is it with landscape and portrait photos
That thought did cross my mind with the purple line. But what do you think the black line underneath the purple line could be??
The lines stay in the left corner in both portrait and landscape modes.
Thanks

Looks to me a small micro crack...can you shine a light on lens and see if its cracked? I had this issue on one of my old phones.
The lines would move to another corner in landscape mode versus portrait mode if it were something physically on the lens or the lens itself.
If they stay in the same corner, it's likely software. Try another camera app to test it.

I assume you do NOT have a case on the phone?
Is there a tiny piece of lint in there somewhere?
That's got to be annoying

I always use a case and screen protector, from day one. I hate "naked" phones.
Melcali- I don't see any lint.

And you've taken the case off and tried pictures? Just to make sure it's not the case?

That was the first thing I tried after noticing the problem. I physically don't see anything on the lens and I don't have a magnifying glass. I'm wondering if dirt has gotten behind the glass and lens. I usually store the phone in my back pocket when I'm not holding. Do you think a hard reset would work as customer support suggested?
Thanks

If the mark stays in the bottom left corner no matter which way you turn the phone, then yes, a software reset might help.
Is the line in the preview as well, or does it only appear after you take the image?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
It's in the preview too.
Update: the factory reset did not remove the line.

So all other camera apps..show this mark on bottom left corner?..If you've attempted to instal a few different camera apps and they all do it on that corner..its most likely a scratch or dirt mark behind the actual lens itself...I don't think it has anything to do with software related.... trying different camera apps kida debunks that....but I could be wrong I've seen sone pretty weird stuff go on with phones..lol
I tried two different apps so far.

Yes, I've never used another camera app until it was suggested here.

Is there a mod allowing (with a button combination) to disable completely the touchscreen while leaving the screen on?
When I show a picture around, if anybody grabs my phone, 99% of the times they end up touching the screen (especially if they are not familiar with the SGS3 thin borders) messing up the display.
***** slap anyone who grabs the phone.. Problem sorted

Depending on the nature of the picture, sometimes they grab it anyway...

Nope. Happens to everybody. It's even probably for the best to just leave that feature alone.

I know someone that works for LG, and he said LG phones are great, they just have one problem. Overheating. I just hope it doesn't get too hot during winter, it might crack the back glass.
