Hello guys,
after flashing batista70's ROM, I started to notice that on the default wallpaper, there was heavy color banding, as if the bit rate of the colors dropped.
For example when I use the microbes live wallpaper, the microbes are much bigger and it looks like it's zoomed in, plus the dark background, instead of having some smooth grey areas has a net separation between black and dark grey.
I've tried flashing stock ROMs back, but it didnt fix the problem.
Do you think that if I send it to samsung saying that it happened after I updated it via Kies, are they gonna fix it?

If something happened to any hardware component of your phone, they will fix it.. But only if you pay, unless you use a JIG to reset the custom binary counter...
I can't imagine why a ROM should damage your phone, you should try to flash another kernel...

The phone is in warranty..... They shouldnt make me pay..

Same
Im having the exact exact same problem. Kind of dissapointing. I thought rooting and flashing roms made better. Its a small problem but an annoying and ugly one. PLEASE HELP!!!!
Funny this, I have the same problem after changing screens (so a hardware, not software, change). Did you guys find out what's causing this?

possibly display drivers issue?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486620
That user suggested a re-flash
Any news on this issue? I just changed my cracked screen, and when I plugged the new one and turned the phone on, image was perfect, then 1 second later it went all strange, with heavy horizontal banding.
I didn´t have a chance yet to flash new FW because my S2 has a broken power flex button, I´m waiting the replacement one to arrive in the mail, but I would like to know beforehand if this may be just a software problem. If it´s hardware, I think I´m screwed.
Thanks!
hi guys i hope some one replay
my sgs2 screen got blue tint on top of my screen i tried 4 firmwares the same so i toke my phone to my local shop that i bought it from because i have 1 year warranty
so today they told me it was a firmware proplem they told that they installed another rom and now it have no blue tint on top
but i sure they are telling lies
im sure they have changed the screen cuz no way a firmware fix this
im going to take my device tomorrow from the shop is there any way to know if they have replaced the screen ? ?? ?
i want to know that cuz my warranty is replacing the device not fixing it !
so i want to know if there is any way to know if they changed the screen or not ??
thanks alot guys on advance
First thing I would do is see if the blue tint problem is fixed. I imagine you will be able to do that easily.
If there is no blue tint problem you will be happy, yes?
Not sure what your asking since your phone is being fixed under warranty for free.
Edit: ok read your post again and you want the phone replaced not fixed. Maybe you could check if the phone has the same serial number and ime??

if they changed the screen the serial number and ime will still be the same right ? ?
so any other way to see if they replaced the screen
Just call them and ask...I'm not sure why would they go all the trouble of replacing the screen and then lie about it.

what is the duration of your phone on their hand? if less than 1 day, hard to believe they can change the LCD so fast.

i noticed a dark dead line on the top of screen of Xperia Neo which appears with dark colors for images . videos , games , applications ,,,, any thing falls in this site "i mean blue , red , grey , green ,.....",,, the depth of the darkness is proportional to the depth of the viewed color "i.e it ranges from faint grey to deep black ", i guess it's an issue of LEDs or something that couldnot emit those dark colors evidenced by not appearing with white or black
i uploaded a screen shot with white colored screen and another with greyed screen with arrows pointing to the line i mean
can anyone help ,,, i hope it's a software issue ,,, my phone is still in warranty period but i am afraid of sending it to warranty in my country because i heard that they are careless and not professional ,, and axiom "the best warranty" is not avalable in my country ,,
i am facing exactly the same problem with my xperia neo
Do you use the factory rom ?

I am not sure if its a software issue or not. Seems to me like a LCD panel issue. However, you can try flashing the stock ROM and see if it helps. For flashing, you need the stock ftf file and flash tool for neo.
You can find flash tool here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351317
For stock ROM, go here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24113310&postcount=64
Its the global version of .62 firmware.
Once you download the firmware, its an easy job with flash tool.
thnx alot but i meant that i want to flash to 2.3.3
You will get 0 battery error if you downgrade.....

Simply reflash that .62 fw, linked above. Then you will see.
That line looks like water damage

That is ghosting effects quite common on LCD screens flashing back stock rom won't help you with that.

Probably water damage, I left my phone near the shower, damp air might have gone inside. I sent it back to Sony, but they didn't repair anything.

I sent it to them, and they sent it back without comments. It's a waste of time to send it to them imo. It it really noticeable during normal usage? I only see the effect on a grey background.
Those pics were taken half a year ago Gingerbread with some theming

i just upgraded my phone to ICS ,, and noticed that this line is like a stamp of old screen "i.e. when it falls on dark displayed color , i can see this black line appearing as " 5:02 PM , and the signal of my operator " ,,, i mean it sounds like a screen of notifications bar is frozen and displayed in the form of this line ,,
Read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_persistence

and pay attention to parts where they talk about treatment or correction

Ether turn off your phone for few days, or find/make white image and let it run on your phone for some time, you can set screen on for 30 minutes, so you don't need to check it so often.
hi guys please see this video and please tell me if your phone's screen do behave like that (side note it's not due to galaxy s3 have low ppi [306] /i can see these waves by naked eyes{i have perfect eye vision}]

What? Don't be an @## I am just asking you guys to check. If you're phone do behave like mine... Easy as that..
Nope you are deliberately breaking the rules .No bumping no abusive posts .

Hi, I tried it and I don't get waves. And I know from PC days I am quite capable of seeing flicker. I think what you are seeing looks like a video sync problem. What have you got installed? Maybe you need to check your graphics settings or perhaps Power Saving that may have altered the settings?

Video sync? Wait I see those waves by naked eyes. And did you tried it with full brightness? And no I haven't did any under clock.
Even with all stock I can see those waves

I may be using wrong terms. In the old CRT screens it was called sync - that's what your video reminded me of.
Have you tried JJ's suggestion of Factory Reset?
Also do you have anything installed other than how the phone came? If so, list the changes you made - you will probably get more responses if people don't have to ask 'did you do/have this?' and have you say, 'no I didn't' or 'already done that' - tell us what your phone has, what you have done, what conditions etc.
e.g. CF-Root, Omega JB Rom, All Power saving options on - anything you can think of including the ROM/Kernel versions
My phone. Is totally. Stocked (just rested all phones after not getting any replay {2 hours ago}. So my phone is all stocked.

The issues definitely look lie Vsync issues, though with the quality of the video you posted it's hard to tell. If you phone is now on a true stock rom with no root or anything, then it's likely a hardware fault. Take it back to where you purchased for a warranty repair, there's nothing else that will help you here I'm afraid.
Hi all i am new to this forum and i am ready to learn from you guys
Ok my problem is verry sirius i have send my galaxy to technical lab 3 time
And steel the same.
My phone is beeping by it self. Not after a call not after nothing
He just beeps when he want no body know where or what is the problem
I am with a huge hope that you guys can help me
Thank you all for help
I think thats technical issue. Idk anybody else xperience this but ur problem kinda strange thing to happen and never happen to my phone.
My guess is some kind of RF interference......had new tv recently and kept getting blocks on screen, turned out it was my boiler relay interfering every time the thermostat triggered on/off......and I'm guessing something is causing induction on your speaker in a similar manner
...
Hmmm mey be you right... So what you sugest me to do?
I am agree that this is verry strenge and i didnt know no body with
The same problem.
Thanks for helping me guys
Well if it only happens while you are in a certain location then that would indicate possibly my suggestion, can you describe the beep? Is it a notification beep or does it doing like interference?...or?
..
This is hapening every where.. Its not a notification beep i have
Never hear beep like that... I am now at work in afew hours ill
Come home ill try to record the beep...
It's not what I suggested then, e recording would be very helpful :thumbup:

Well it's not a notification sound I recognize, almost sounds like the connection notification when you plug into charge, just wondering if damaged usb port is doing it, but that is just a guess.
Best advice is flash back to stock Rom with full wipe, and before adding your apps see if it's still doing it, if not then add apps a few at a time.
The other thing you could do is run better battery stats and see if that noise links to any wakelocks
