people, has anyone of you noticed white vertical lines that appear for a fraction of a second when you power on the device? it happens right before lock screen appears... best could be seen in a dark... seems like there is a problem with screen initialization on a driver level...
Could someone check this issue?
Using Lightning ROM 1.5
Sounds like your phone is defective.

i prefer to be more optimistic due to the fact that many others reported the same problem on different forum... xda is more reliable, so I'm trying to collect the opinions here as well
Mine has this, noticed it for the first time yesterday (hadn't seen any reports of this at that time).

don't worry, I think this effect is present on every piece of 9100. more or less obvious for users... it might be not vertical lines that people see but the quick white flash

What effect does this have on any other aspect of the phone, or is it literally only that fraction of a second that there is any apparent effect?

if it is really a problem of display controller low-level driver - it might cause some serious problems as time passes... total screen failure, for instance... as i remember from past cell phones - it was the first sign of upcoming screen death...
but i think that in our case - this is just a minor driver issue in screen initialization process... at least i believe so
I have this problem with the screen as well! and it's annoying to see those vertical lines whenever I wake up the screen.
sometime i can see the lines with "CRT Screen Off" mod, but without they dont appear
Try to do a backup in CW recovery and flash a stock rom.
It can be the CRT effect or any other custom rom issue.
It would be great to know if the problem is due to your custom rom or not.
Hey, sorry to bring this up again, but I'm having the same problem, and it's really bothering me. If there's any way of fixing it, please let me know, I just uploaded the stock ICS 4.0.3 for my device, and it started to show.
mine too has this
Mine also has this issue. only visible in the dark
yeah, same here. I thought i was the only one having this
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Noticed this straight away when I got my new phone and it was there before I flashed a custom anything
***Bezeke HOLO LPQ base running bits stuff from everywhere ***
I also have this issue
One large, white vertical line. Clearly visible in all lighting conditions
However sometimes (rarely) it doesn't do it.
I have compared this to a black galaxy s2 (mines white) which doesn't suffer from this issue. It actually seems to delay the screen on / unlock time
The black loads the lockscreen at almost the exact same time as the white displays the lines.
I've been putting off returning it under warranty as I can't do without it..
Its like a jolt of power that hits the screen
***Bezeke HOLO LPQ base running bits stuff from everywhere ***
yeah, i recently got a phone off someone, and it's been bothering me since, there's no way of fixing it? i hope it hasn't caused anyone trouble, i recently switched to iPhone to this phone and i'm absolutely loving it besides the white flash

If you mean the minute, almost "patterned" grey lines then yes. Every Galaxy S2 has theses.
But bright white, clearly visible line/s which delay the screen-on process.. No, not every Galaxy S2 has it.
Especially if they don't always appear
i don't think its an issue with the phone i had it running an old version of omega rom the latest 5.1 does'nt have that problem.
Hi,
I dropped my Galaxy S2 Yesterday (have no idea if this relates to it) But i plugged it into the charger this morning and everything was blue & some of the screen had turned black and some icons had burnt into the screen it looked like.
After taking it with me because it was still usable, Its not completely black except for maybe the faintest part of blue.
Im running Lite'ning rom, The newest one im pretty sure.
Just wondering if this is a virus? Or the screen is dead. I just cant see how it could suddenly die when it was flat and not turned on.
Phones not under warranty by the way. So maybe you could give me some options?
Thanks heaps guys
Probably the problem is hardware related due to the fall, but you could back all your data and try to do a factory reset to see if it fixes or not. If it doesn't fix maybe you should check your screen hardware.
Thanks for the reply,
I just reflashed Litening with Odin 1.85 and still nothing, I get the vibrations, touch lights, sound ect, But only occasionally a tiny little strip of blue along the top.
How would i check my screen hardware? Because i pulled apart my galaxy s after it died and accidently cracked the screen & Glass
How would i do a factory reset by the way? Since i cant see anything
I'd imagine it's dead. I'd take it to your local store and ask for an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it. If you can't see anything, then the screen is either broken or it got disconnected (or maybe some of the ribbons did at least).
Yeah, I just dont really wanna take the phone apart unless i know its likley to fix it.
When i first got it, I noticed it had black splotches on the screen in very dim light on a white background. Nd im guessing id have to almost buy a whole front screen assembly to replace the front screen D:.
Would i be better just to sell the phone how it is? Or repair it?
I have noticed some horizontal lines running through the screen on my S2 when light images are displayed. (Also shows on green test screen quite clearly)
They are light bands about 1mm wide and running across my screen at various points.
There is also slight burn in of my status bar, you can see battery and clock if you look hard.
Just wondering if this is a normal occurrence and something to put up with or if it's worth me getting it replaced under warranty.
If I return it and then in 4 months time the same happens it's pointless. Also I would hate to return the phone for screen replacement and then get another screen with maybe a dead pixel or something.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thank you
can no one help......?

Send it to repair centre, it's definitely a faulty unit.
Your repaired/replaced phone will not have repeated issues.
My phone is a year already, and everything is still prefect
Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII
I just replaced an oled screen and digitizer for a Samsung Galaxy S3. Everything seemed to go ok except when I turn the phone on the Samsung logo is green. The entire screen also has a green color to it (more than just a tint). Is it possible I just received a faulty screen? Or did I do something wrong? What could be causing this? I am fixing this phone for my friend's wife and would appreciate any help I could get.
possibly a bad connection
I did try the lcd connection again and that didn't change anything. How else can I check the connection?
Could it be anything else?
If not the connection, faulty screen

I own my galaxy s3 for about 2 years. The Problem is, that i have serious screen burn in. I alway See a shadow of my keyboard when displaying a white image. Is there any way to fix this? I know that amoleds have this Problem, but i did not expect that after only two years

I'm having the same issue. Would love to know how to solve this. Although I think the only solution is replacing the screen.
2 years? It can happen in a couple of days if you leave a static image on the screen.
I read a while back that this might work but don't quote me on that. Also, I'm not responsible if anything bad happens.
Try putting your phone on max brightness, displaying a completely white picture and leave it like that overnight. Plug in the charger and keep the display from dimming and turning off.

Okay i think ill try it. How much is it, if i replace the screen? Would you recommend to replace the screen or just wait a bit and buy a New phone?

New screen is 1/2 the price of the whole handset.

Too Bad Do other Phones with amoled technology like s4,s5 have this Problem too? In other words: Will all amoled displays in the future get burn ins after a while or is it possible to reduce this effect?
