If I uderstand correctly, your screen is damaged due to overheating. You have a yellow tint when a white background is presented? And the location of the spot may indicate thet your device was used while it was charging and that it may be charged incorrectly. This is a common issue with LCD displays that overheat too much for various reasons and it's inseparable I'm afraid. Only display change can solve your yellow spot.

Im not using my phone while charging..but the yellow spot appears when i use my phone in the swimming pool while taking 4kvideos underwater....sorry for my bad english guys

Does the "spot" go away when the device is not in use? When you use it normally do you have that spot on the screen? Does it happen when recording in 1080p? Does it happen only in water?

According to the picture you have posted this is the heat damage on your display. Unfortunately this cannot be fixed, you can only replace the display or use it as is.

Thanks for the answers guys i have question if they replace the screen it will still waterproof or not

This depends on replacment parts and the skill of the servicer. From my experience its important to use quality glue and clean off the old glue residue. I have repaired Z1 compact myself at my home and used silicone glue and the phone was waterproof after the repair, front and back glass replaced. Ask around and ask the service guys are they able to maintain the waterproofness of the device first.

Me too have it

The S2 is meant to have a silver/chrome surround on the home button, if yours doesn't it's a manufacturing fault and you should consider returning your device. Even if it doesn't bother you, it'll wreck the resale value when the time comes.
Mine doesn't have the chromed finish either. I really prefer it this way!

It's the same colour as the outer frame so gunmetal too. I guess it looks a little shiner in the photo.
Same here, my home button surround and the trim round the face are both a Smokey dark grey rather than a bright chrome. First day purchase from phones4u uk...

Mine is not silver. It is almost a gunmetal colour, the same as the frame around the screen.

no definitely smoked gunmetal vs silver/chrome. One guy on the overclock thread said he had silver and insisted his setcpu reported he had a tegra chip - I haven't looked back lately.

weird broken screen problem

I have no idea how this happened 5 minutes ago I was playing draw something on the tablet then I closed it did a few things and when I come back to it I have a large horizontal line going across the screen and a small ink splotch on the bottom of the horizontal line. I can't take a screen shot of it. The picture comes out fine. Can someone plz tell me if this is a hardware or software issue and how to handle it. I bought the prime in Feb so I don't know if I'm under warranty or not. Plz help this is extremely upsetting.

If you reboot and the problem is there during the splash screen, then I'd say hardware.

I guess its hardware but how could this happen maybe too ,much pressure in that area? How much/little pressure could cause this. Its even in a roocase. Will Asus fix it if I complain about this with GPS issues?

You used your Prime to take a screenshot and were surprised that the crack in the glass didn't show up in the image?

The screen physically is fine. No "cracks" on the outside so I wasn't sure if it was on the internal or software

[Q] My 3 White S3 has a defective cover?

I have 3 galaxy s3 here today, white. When i look at it in bright light on the back cover its a pattern in the plastic, it looks like a oily map, holograms or something like rainbow colors reflecting in patterns.
Can anyone else check the back cover under a lamp ?
Pic or it didnt happen
Written in bad english with my HTC Desire S
Description sounds consistent with the defective blue back covers. Pics would be nice.

I tried to take pickture but its impossible to get it visible on my iphone 4s camera.
Looks like its between the hyperglaze and the plastic.
I can confirm in any light, including torch shining on it, what you are experiencing is not present on mine. Get them to send you a new back cover (and pray they don't send you blue )

So what revision is your back covers? Mine is 2nd v3 whatever that means.
Yes I have oily colours on my back cover too. I like it!!

I think its just the hyper glazing stuff. Ive seen similar looks in other products too.
My only issue with the phone is the brightness level. Other than that i`m well happy.
This is coming from a Galaxy Nexus too.

Neo Screen burned in (status bar)

Well title says alot. My neo has a burned in statusbar. It is visible in grey and white and black background colors. Someone also has this?
And does this fall under warranty? It is quite annoying since it can be seen quite good

thats a no? but im going to ask sony anyways it is kinda funny that the burn in is not really staying long. When not using my phone (switched off) for a day my burn in is almost gone. But when i use it 1 hour or so i see the time, battery and icons burn in
As for me. I am not saying that I'm right, but this is my opinion regarding on this matter. I work in a TFT-LCD company in taiwan for 3yrs and I assigned in burn-in processes which is you will keep the LCD panel to the machine with a temp of 50-60 degrees celsius. on this kinda heat all the LCD even the 32"-40" or bigger will notice a burn Cristal Liquid. as what we are discussing for.
but it will gone in a min. if the panel will become cold. I ask this before to the Higher class that this is because of the metal plate that produce to much heat.
because when a metal put to a 30deg. it is shurely get 5% more degrees. i don't know exactly the explanation but this is what they told me.
So, This phone we have has a CPU on the top near to the camera. and it coming heat, when using in games or heavy use. and the LCD has a metal plate on side to protect it. when heat process it flow on that metal and you will see that result.
In my work before, I also notice that more than 24HR of burning process in LCD will affect that Burn Cristal liquid. and you will see that it will not remove for long life...
hope you understand it. or disregard it if you are not interested.
Why don't you search before posting?

Do you play a lot of games or hold the device in landscape often?
I'm just spit-balling here, but.. could be oil from your palm penetrating the stock screen protector? or between stock and your screen protector?
Maybe it was there from the start but I never noticed it. Haven't played any games on it or had my finger there.
I really wonder what it is and why you can only see it when breathing on it, when I wipe it clean its really hard to see.
How easy is it to remove the ASF?

I would think it is the coating on the screen protector as well.
As for removing the stock protector, it can be done but by all accounts you will feel like committing suicide halfway through. there is a guide somewhere on here
Well, the thread can be closed because I destroyed the phone :good:
