Was that your LCD leaking? Maybe its a problem with your digitizer. You need to send it to service center for repair..
Water ?

i just bought my galaxy s2 today , but i noticed a strange circular spot on the lower right side of the screen, it is visible in gray or other dark background and is not affected by the brightness settings. should i get it replaced
Hard to be certain without a photo, but it sounds like a mark from the suction cup used to attach the screen - a few people have reported this, unfortunately. There are photos somewhere in the forum, can't seem to find them at the mo...
If so, yes - return it immediately.
i cant post a pic because im a new member, but thanks for the rep

sai4u - From another thread, suction mark in top right. Look like yours?
yes, i have the exact same problem
Shame. I'd return it, definitely.
Same issue, white circle in the lower right side of the screen, size of a coin, visible only on a grey background, just like the yellow left side issue. Doesn't bother me in real life usage, but still...
il get it replaced immediately, many thanks for the reply

I too have this same problem unfortunately, I asked for replacement but currently phones out of stock here, Waiting for new stock Impatiently.
Was it easy for u to get it replaced ?
my friend got it. hopefully she can get a new one.
Mine is not this prominent though, I dont see it on such dark backgrounds...God knows how many pieces have it, and the fate of replaced piece.
Could be a remnant from production process and oleophobic coating. Glass parts are mostly transported by suction cups and this might leave this "mark" ...........
i also have a light spot on my phone which appears on gray or slightly dark backgrounds. it's on the left side. it does not appear to be the same thing as the one on previous pictures. it's as small as a dot which can be made by a marker.

Maybe you are talking about the white spot in default internet browser. It is located in the left lower corner. It is normal and it's there for hardware acceleration. Check to see if you have dead pixels, if the white spot only appears in default browser than your phone is ok.
mine appears all the time (provided that the background colors are gray and of the same shade). also, the spot is on the top-middle portion (portrait mode) of the phone. example, it reading SMS conversations, background is gray right? i can see the light spot there. i would post a picture but i'm still new to the forum.
Hi.
Mine have that exact circle too =/ .
So, you say it is not burn in ? i was thinking maybe that was because the weather widget sun.
Since im out of warranty i m thinking in open and cleaning it, what do you think ? would be that possible ?

It would be possible for sure, but would be also a big mistake.
It's a hardware issue, not a dust one.

Sent via my S2 monster
hey guyz
ive been using my S2 for a month now!
Yesterday i noticed on a plain white screen @ full brightness a blue tint on the top left side of my screen.
Does anyone else have this problem ? Is it a Problem ?
Thanks
nikoceballos
Yes, I have the same trouble... blue tint over left corner... its not very annoying, but its there... not correspond to a top smartphone... I think its hardware. I'll let you know when I take it to warranty...
Have it replaced, the S2 is quite known to have some screen quality issues.
Guys, same here... Very annoying while reading a book...
@nikoceballos : Any luck with sammy?..
I have the same problem, once i noticed it, it became annoying when reading documents, I've contacted the agents to get it replaced, awaiting their answer.
Its definitely a hardware issue, the agents first tried to convince me its normal by showing me another Galaxy S and SII phones that have it.
Blue tint on top left
Same issue here yaar...blue tint on the top left...Not that much annoying but yaa its there...otherwise performance is superb..plz post a solution if somebody finds any...i wont go for a replacement since i heard as replacement they wont give u a sealed new piece....
thanks and regards

it will be a ***** to unglue your screen from your black (i guess it is black) current housing w/o breaking it. you need a special oven to do so. like the one that service centers have. so in my opinion do not do it.
Just wondring if you did this yet?? Im looking at doing the same. I did it with my original SGS and it wasn't difficult. Love to hear how you got on
Hey s3 owners. Yesterday my blue s3 arrived but i am a bit disapointed:
Batterycover has crack (production issue - is there no quality control?)
display has a colour fault in the lower fourth (hard to see on picture -but it is there). Ecspacially at white screen you can see it really good.
Volume up is hard to press cause of deep pressing point.
And the battery cover does not fit exactly on the left side like it should and does on the right side.
Do others have similar issues? Do you think i should send it back?
Greets
Yes send it back now if its faulty they are not normal issues .
jje
So nobody here has similar issues?? No redish colour fault?

Would it matter if they had? Just send it back.
Hello all, hopefully you can help me fixing this problem.
I've replaced my cracked screen with a new screen and digitizer, everything went perfectly and the phone is properly put back together. However the new screen seems to show everything in 16 bit. I see banding at grey gradients and the colors look pale. I've been searching around on the internet and couldn't find much about this problem.
Especially on my photo's the quality decrease is very clear to notice.
For some it helped to reinstall their OS, after reinstalling their colors looked sublime, but how to do this?
This is a photo I shot to see how bad the banding is.

If you try GB/ICS/JB and still have problems then maybe duff screen.

I had a similar issue on my HD2 and a kernel changed solved it.
Flash a custom kernel and see if you have same issue.

I'm quite un-experienced with custom kernels. Would Siyah be a good kernel to go with?

Yes Siyah is a good choice however it depends on what version your OS is as to what version of Siyah you should install. If its 4.0.3or 4.0.4 I recommend using v4 of Siyah.
I suggest you to flash Dorimanx which you can find @dorimanx.shine.sk but if it doesn't work someone installed a China import screen to your s2.
My secondary S2 got a cheaper alternative to stock display and now it has an always pink-ish color
is it an orignial screen? sometimes cheep ones are sold as original. first check if its AMOLED. when the image is black there should be no ilumination. if there is its an LCD and a fake - happend to me
Go back to service center.
DONT FORGET HITTING THANKS......
I've done the reparation myself and got the screen from Ebay from China. Followed a clear step-by-step tutorial and I'm sure no ribbons or connections were damaged.
I just checked if the black doesn't have illumination and it hasn't, you can't notice the difference between the black from a webpage and the border of the phone. I don't have any tint on it.
It seems to me like the phone doesn't recognize the screen 'driver', just like as you would replace a GPU in your PC, you'll need to download a driver.
I've been looking into flashing a new kernel, but it's harder than I thought and don't know where to start. Maybe it's better if I wait for Jelly Bean, which should be released soon in the country I live, The Netherlands. This update will refresh the kernel too, right?
Screen driver.......lol
Chinese rip off.
"noob ok...lazy noob not ok"
jdmmer, I have the same issue, and I also want to know more about the software portion that deals with the screen controller, or DRIVER, for short. I still hope it may be a driver issue, the problem looks exactly like things I saw in the past with other phones, when display manufacturer changed.
I also bought my screen at eBay, installation was accident free, but heavy banding appears horizontally, with the phone in "portrait" position.
I noticed the banding is minimal when phone is turned on, and gets worse and worse, and some minutes later, screen starts to heavily flicker until it gets completely white.
Screen is amoled, it has great contrast and brightness, the only problem is the progressive banding. The only strange detail about it is the missing Samsung logo near the speaker.
About a custom kernel: I have installed most recent Dorimanx Kernel, but nothing changed. I'll keep trying, if I find a solution, I'm posting it here.
I posted pictures of my screen banding here:
