Hi, I have an i19100 with broken screen. Since I couldn't find a new LCD replacement in my country, I had to buy a second handed i9100 (with damaged board but working LCD).
So basically I replaced my board with the other one, now when I plugin the charger to my phone the battery icon appears and disappears in 1 second repeatedly, It's like flashing. I have no idea what to do since I wasted money on that...
On backside of both phones it says i9100 but the one with damaged board and LCD, it also says SSN: I9100-GSMH
Why the freak would Samsung make thousands of versions for a phone...
Can anyone help me?
Problem solved, there was a problem with android 7.
I had an extended battery and could get into download mode and downgrade it to android 4.
Then I pulled back the standard battery and it started to charge normally....
So confusing but yeah nothing is better than official roms

Hi Guys,
I bought a Galaxy S2 in late August and have been using it since then. It is also using Siyah Kernel with Galnet MIUI Rom.
This morning I pulled the phone out of my pocket and the screen was completely white, with horizontal lines across it. I have attached a picture to described what I am saying (sorry for the quality, it is behind a white table but the light from the screen makes it so the camera only picks up the screen).
What's interesting is that everything else is working. If someone calls me, the ringer will go off, and I can guess the gesture to accept the call and have a conversation, so it just seems to be the screen.
I have tried a few things already, but any time the screen seems to have power its just white. You never see the initial Samsung Galaxy boot screen, and I tried going into recovery mode and the download mode and both the times I can't do anything.
Is there a way to flash without having any visual control, and even if there is, do you guys think its worth a shot? I bought this phone from someone online and not sure if I can still get the Samsung international warranty.
Any help is very much appreciated.

Holy crap. That's a hardware defect. Go to download mode, flash original firmware, use jig, send back to Samsung. But it seems that it has been dropped in the top right corner, didn't it?

I dropped it the night before on carpet, but everything was fine. I used it the whole night, and in fact I even used it the morning of. Not sure what happened but I pulled out my phone because it was noticeably warm, probably from the screen being on.
I bought this phone online, and it originally belonged to a Samsung Asia employee who no longer works there. I checked the box for any warranty information, and the page containing warranty information seems to have the international warranty code page ripped out.
Anyone have any idea of the cost of getting samsung to fix this? I tried calling Samsung Canada and they gave me a number for the company that deals with their phones, but I haven't had any luck reaching them. I also tried looking for screens online but they are so expensive.

if its not a hardware defect then install via odin some other firmware...
if that not going to help then return it to samsung and claim your warranty - dont mention that you droped it on the carpet thou... ;]]
It has to be a hardware defect if even the boot logo doesn't show right? (the initial galaxy s2 screen)
Hi Guys,..

tell him to return it back to the shop he got it from for repair or replacement
It's not software bug, I'm pretty sure.
Something broken inside, and it'll be great if they don't need to replace the dispaly, because it's a bit too expensive.
This happened to my old Samsung phone. *Not an S3* Just had to open it back up and one of those weird square thingys for the display was partially on.
Definitely seems to be a hardware prob, maybe the display got damaged. Only option is to return to the shop for repair, or if lucky a replacement .
I recently bought myself a brand new S2 NFC I9100P.
I played with it the whole weekend and I found the touchscreen to be unresponsive to light touches/taps. Many times I have to tap twice or longer to open apps, make selections etc...I tried both the stock launcher and custom launchers, same thing.
I was not charging the phone while using it, I heard about the unresponsiveness when connected to a power source but this is not the case (well I have not tried yet).
I do not have this problem on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 or my previous phone, a HTC Desire S.
Did I get a defective unit? I am thinking about a replacement since it does not feel right to me. Anyone has experienced anything like this?
The phone is on Android 4.0.4 stock firmware (with Orange bloatware).
I have a I9100 and my unit reacts as expected. But I can't tell if your problem is due to hardware software failure.

same here on 2 units bought in Lithuania. One is running CM10.1 nightly and another - stock. both are having responsiveness issues. I thought the touch panel was c.....
Screen protectors make touch panel less responsive to small touches.
Bought genuine touch unit replacement in Lithuania. No issues on any rom here, very responsive
Hey guys!
I have a GT-i9300 for about 2 years now. Long story short - last year I bought a liquid air refreshener for my car which leaked out and without noticing it I just threw my phone in it and later on reallised what had actually happend. So fast forward 1 year later, the phone is till working though not fully. The lower part of the screen turned green, about 3-4 cm has a gree hue on top of the content( if it turns on actually, sometimes it does not turn on ). When I turn the brightness higher it gets a bit better, still not fully. The touch functions absolutely normal.
So I opened it and checked the motherboard, it looks weird and has a few small "bumps" arround the chips . I tried removing them but it didn't help ( it might be just some sillicon, I don't know ). So I was thinking would replacing the motherboard help? I found one that is from exactly the same model and has the same memory size, could that help me with the display?
Thanks in advance!

Sounds like your motherboard may not the problem here. I would suspect the lcd. You would need to replace the lcd,digitizer and glass combo.
Hello all,
First of all I hope I am writing in the correct section... Otherwise please let me know.
Secondly: Something really strange is happening to my Galaxy S2.
Last year, the glass broke on the street and I changed it manually by buying one from eBay and following video instrctions. This year the touch and AMOLED part of the screen cracked (I don't even know how). This time I decided to buy a Galaxy S4, as I didn't want to "invest" anymore on the 2-year old smartphone, but I kept it. Later this year I decided to fix the S2 one again, and so I ordered a replacement screen (which costed a whopping $105!!!) and changed it. To my surprise, although I checked all the motherboard connections more than twice, the phone turns on, the Welcome Screen (configuration for first time usage screen) appears, but... The screen is unresponsive and I also can't change the volume nor turn the screen off by pressing the lock/power button.
If someone knows something about this problem or how to fix it, I would appreciate a comment with information regarding it to be able to understand what is happening.
Thanks in advance!
B.S.: I don't know if this information has anything to do with the problem, but the first screen I bought wasn't original, as it didn't have the Samsung logo on the ribbon cable, while the new one is original and the Samsung logo appears on the ribbon connector. I wonder: Is this a factory failure?
