Hey xda people.
I'm using Omnirom on p3110 and have had an issue with WatchESPN across a few roms.
I'm guessing it's an issue with DPI for that app, but honestly it's just a guess. It looks like the screen is tearing outside of the viewing window.
Anyone have an idea and how to remedy it? I have a screenshot I can send.
Thanks!

Attach the screenshots and make it easier for us to guess the problem..
Looks like I can't yet. I can send it to anyone interested.

I may be experiencing the same issue. Video isn't full screen and am seeing a lot of pixelation around the edges of the video?

I've noticed that to, its not just you. The blacks are not the rich high contrast dark that I am used to from my captivate. I'm hoping that we will get some color screen adustments once tweaked roms get cooked up.

It isn't just you...I have the same problem...
Same Here. Ugly Blacks....
Samsung Media Hub movies and TV shows looks great. I don't know why Netflix looks like this. Hulu also looks OK

YouTube was doing this to me as well
So what do u guys think. Bad screens or software related?

Netflix used to do the same on my iPhone. Its definitely not the screen.

So I'm not the only one noticing, great I think. Is there an actual fix in ics for this?
Software, not hardware. Known issue in the IGN.
I think maybe its the quality of stream that netflix uses cause when I play movies from my sdcard i dont notice it..
i always notice it though if the video res is really low.

I'm not in an LTE area but I have 30/5mb speeds with wifi. Netflix looks horrible still. I'm thinking that a lot of apps just weren't made for this size screen and a simple update will fix it.

yes i think hiii is correct. the netflix app on 2.3 series does not scale with screen size i beleve it is kept at a low resolution and that is part of the blockyness.
Use the following Netflix.apk file attached. It'll solve all the resolution problems. I've been using it for 2 days now.
Note: Do NOT update the app after you install it, or it'll go back to the one that doesn't work well.

It works better than the updated one, but it's still sort of disappointing that it doesn't look as hd as I'd expect. Thanks for the temporary fix though!

it's not just netflix it happens when you watch videos
on th note
My Netflix doesn't look bad. But we need to realize that....sure the International version has been out for a while, but is only now going mainsteam with the i717. That will make app developers take notice and start optimizing for the Note screen.

Has anyone who tried out this phone tested it for the screen lines/blobs issue that the S2 had?
I would also like to know this too the yellow tint issue, and black blobs. I had the issue in both my SGS 2 black and White...though in galaxy nexus it was vey negligible but still there . I hope its not in SGS 3
There seems to be a pink tint rather than yellow tint.

Should probably wait a bit before buying this phone, who knows what the probability is.
Bump. People should know about this before buying the phone.
Most of the screen won't have tint problems . But still people can check the screen using lcd test code before taking it to home

What about black crush issues? Is it all pixellated when viewing dark videos or images?

I hate this on my S2. Hopefully in a few days when people start getting their phones we will have these questions answered.

Has any S3 owner checked the issue about the pixelization when viewing dark videos or images?

Yup! I received my SGS3 yesterday, and after seeing this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658601 I checked the Iron man Pepper Kiss video on Youtube and I did not notice any problems!
The pixelization is sometimes caused by poor encoding.
I received the phone yesterday.
Did the LCD tests.
All tests are crystal clear. RGB backgrounds look like glass and the black videos are deep blacks without pixalation of any form.
I also checked another thread talking about some kind of pixels that were appearing as different colour and this didn't occur either.
The screen works perfectly and it does look gorgeous despite that pentile screen debate.
If a phone doesn't perform as described by me (and many many others) then the phone is simply defective and will be covered by DOA.
Bumb:cyclops: sorry
Has anyone noticed odd lines going diagonally through some icons and play store?
Edit : when I run quadrant I get really bad artifacts on the square part of the stairs.
Could it be a driver issue?
Should I return it as a malfunctioning device?

If you would ac tally read the op you would've seen its not only icons. I also get it on pics and get bad artifacts in games. So if your looking to get sarcastic take it somewhere else.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Definitely not a driver issue... It's the GPU failing to render. I recommend exchanging it while you still can, even under severe stress mine does not do anything like that. I'm sad for you mate. What carrier you on?

Apparently you need a hug, there was nothing sarcastic about it. Im sitting here waiting for my phone to come in a couple weeks and seeing someone post graphics issues is unsettling. Of course i read the op, but the point was on the screenshot it is specific to the icons,whatever it is does not impact the background or other graphical parts on the screen which makes me think its not necessarily hardware.

Ty for the input. And my apologies if there was nothing sarcastic intended.
And I'm on AT&T.
Maybe that is the reason the AT&T store said it was a return of a preordered device and allowed me to buy it in store yesterday.
Just stressing out about it a bit.

Well ive had this issue on my galaxy nexus but it appears to be happening also on my galaxy s 3 (Verizon). It usually only happens when someone sends me a picture along with text inside the text message. While its not a HUGE deal its still very annoying. Is there any way to fix this?
I heard all variant of gs3 has this bug. Hopefully Samsung will fix it soon.
Try Gosms if it bother you that much.

I've once again had to resort to using Handcent as a workaround for the mms issues. I don't understand why no Android phones can handle mms as well as other (unspoken) phones.

This has been the way mms are displayed on sgs1, sgs2 and now sgs3. Its definitely annoying but doubt they will fix since I've seen this on all three generations now

It only shows up as a movie when they send you multiple pictures in one MMS. Have them send you one pic at a time and they'll come through normal

Hi.
i have a few problems with my new SGS3. firstly, when i record a video or take a photo there's a lot of noise no matter how good lighting conditions are. i have tried different settings but nothing changes. also, i have updated the phone to the latest firmware, again, nothing has been fixed.
on to my second problem. the screen has black dots on a solid black background. i believe this is a common problem with the S3, but is it a software issue or a screen issue? my previous phone was a Google Nexus S and it never had black dots on it's super amoled screen.
can anyone please help.

1) Your camera might be stuffed - hardware issue. Especially if you can't get a decent pic outdoors. Have seen it on the S2. A mates phone was blurry no matter what.
2) As far as I know most if not all S3's have this issue, but unless you stare at a black screen in a dark room you'll never notice it.

i can see the black dots in a light room. also, the camera is fine outside it's just indoors that it has problems with.
