Hm maybe its a problem with the actual screen and therefore can't be taken with a screenshot..... I'll try to upload pics with my phone later but, if you would notice them, also I just looked at this post on my computer and I can't see them either, it must be a problem with the LCD

Yeah sounds like it. Nothing you can do to fix that. Hopefully you're still in your 14 day window and can exchange it. I'm going to be getting mine in two weeks and have my fingers crossed that it doesn't have any defects like this.

Any comments on the notification LED?

There is an LED at the bottom of the phone, but there is a dearth of photos showing how bright it is or whether it can emit various colors. Any other comments out there?

Wow if there was led notifications it would be the perfect phone.

I'm really interested about this feature ! If anyone have an information tell us!

Pretty sure it's a similar RBG LED as the Galaxy Nexus, you can see it's at the bottom of the phone below the screen. At the vert least we know it's there as the manual says it is!

Take it for what it's worth.

I think the GNex set the standard on this one, the ED will be a part of the bottom bezel.

2nd paragraph neat the bottom they state its RGB but I will look more.

Bummer. I wish more people would center the FFC. Or at least angle the camera so you don't have to offset the phone while video chatting or taking pictures. The FFC on the Nexus 4 is all the way on the right.

Can you help me clasify if this is a Clone or OEM S4?

Someone is selling me a S4 but I think its a clone. Can you help me classify by checking its appearance? Thanks in Advance )

You've got nothing to worry about. This is genuine going by the photos you have posted.

about phone = original one
but I saw premium copies here.. almost the same as orig now I don't know how to classify

it seems legit. How much for it?

If you can operate a device (tv or whatever) with the phone's bluetooth remote, then it's definitely genuine.

Check it has all s4 sensors /gestures.
Download an app called CPU-Z from play store.
This will tell you all your hardware info and you can check

The embedded remote is infrared! And very powerful.

[Q] Prototype Samsung Galaxy S4 Developer Edition??

I was searching on eBay for a Samsung Galaxy Black Edition (the one with a black screen and a Note 3 style leather textured back):

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I came across this quite sleek looking Prototype Samsung Galaxy S4 Developer Edition:
And I thought to myself: "I must get one."
It has a black, logo-less rectangular screen with square corners, and a logo-less matte plastic back cover. In my opinion, this prototype looks much better than the mass produced model. Does anyone here own one? If so, what's it like?

Get it and dump everything

I wish I could, but a few things are steering me away from it:
1. It's a US phone, and apparently it's locked to US Cellular (I live in Australia)
2. It's a CDMA phone, so I'm not sure about its compatibility with Aussie networks
3. They're a US seller, so postage might be a bit of a pain because they "May not ship to Australia"

Looks to me like it won't be much use in Australia. I'd give it a miss.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking as well. Still, it's a fascinating phone.

this guy on polish site allegro (something like e-bay) have some interesting Samsung stuff https://allegro.pl/uzytkownik/www_awena_com_pl/samsung-inne-modele-5015?order=m

S8 Green lines and smear

Just got my S8 yesterday evening and less than 24hrs after the screen is already bad...
Was like this when I picked it up from the Samsung fast wireless charger that was gifted to me by the provider.
What is strange is that the line are not showing up on either complete black or white screens.
See for yourself..
EDIT: Just got a new one and this looks fine.

Looks like your screens digitizer is going bad. I went through 3 S6's that had green/pink line running down it.

I would definitely not be happy about that. They should replace it without a question. That's an obvious mfg defect

Here's my S6 I upgraded from. Third one that had it, verizon wouldn't replace it because they said it must be something I'm doing. I got real close to not getting another samsung.

This happened on my S7 Edge, and when I took it so Samsung they couldnt replicate the problem. They believed me though and replaced the display panel for me for free anyway Didn't even use up one of my warranty swapouts
