Its simple yellow tint only for those who fail to search and read the Yellow Tint thread .
Advice is to sell the phone .
jje
Give me wise idea what to do..i dnt wana sell it..any software to fix..or. as i heard it will wentout by the time
Dude, if it's a brand new phone then replace it! There is no other solution for the yellow tint problem.
Where did you buy it from?
Every Samsung device has international warranty. You can return it. Unless isn't Chinese brand

Im from Pakistan too..dude u should have brought it from official retailer..and return back this device.
Even HSN offers 1 week no questions asked replacement warranty.
Any how..ur best shot now is to immidiatly return the device..cuz longer u delay grimmer shall b ur chances..
Muhammad I Alam
Ws thnx bro.ma pata kerta hun.muller n phips se
M&P has a shop in plaza next to hafeez center..your best bet would be to go back to the shop and push him,insert code *#0*# ..to pull the Samsung device testing menu and use colors button..he might say that he can't see the yellow tint..just push him to it and if possible compare it with another s3..
I am sure these guys can replace it if they want to..M&P should replace it as well...they were officially releasing it in PK.justforce them to replace it on the spot..nothing like they will send it in warranty..keep pushing that's ur best shot..tell them Samsung has acknowledges this and is replacing these phones worldwide if they are genuine dealers they should have no problems with that.
Btw I also it 1st s3 with 1 dead pixel that I was able to force my way through with help of that Samsung diagnostic menu...that guy will be immediately impressed when u enter the code to get to official Samsung diagnostic menu.
Best of luck!!
Thnx bro.i will ask them
Salami bro I asked m and p.they said they will replace set..bt it will take 15 to 20 days..they will send my phone to lahore head office from isb...this is very annoying thing.i dnt wana send my phone there for 20 days....what i do please help....i see little yellow tint on uper side on display only ..when i hit service menu by dialing *#0#..where written red green blue.i see yellowish in that three boxes only only.wht to do with three days old s3????
Salam bro i asked m n p.they said they will replace set bt it will take 20 days they will send phone to head office lahore from islamabad..bt i dnt wana wait 20 days..wht to do now..n i noticed.when i hite star hash zero hash then i see where written red green blue box in service menu.that boxes are in yellowish shade bt little and rest of the screen is ok.wht to do now plzz help
You had to push him hard..and say its noy like they can repair this because alone lcd makes up for 90% of the major manufacturing cost..and its unacceptable..and that they are selling factory second/refurb sets..and its their internal matter to change it whenever they should just get u the new set..its their respobsibility...
More over go to the retailer u bought it from to change the ph for u.
Else handing it to M&P for 2 weeks is ur last resort ..of course with intimation that u wont accept opened/unsealed sets
Muhammad I Alam
really bro jab bhi phone use kerta hu dil nea chata use kernay ko.dosra s3 ha ye mera jis ma problem agie ha...phelay ma camera black spot abb yellow tint. phelay s2 ma same problem tha.7 s2 change kerwaye lakin end ma akay har man liye bht paisay zaya howay.abb aur mazeed himat nea k isi pa zaya kero fazool kharach Allah karay ker le change nea tou ma nea bhejo ga 2 weeks k liye..pakistan ma aik tou yeh cheez bht kharab ha. i hate samsung now
English only in this forum
Another suggestion is to write to official samsung website...i remember once a friend of mine wrote on panasonic website (or was it samsung )with original reciept for reference for some gadget he had..although local people were deying the problem..offical guy called him up and came with a brand new gadget..
I think M&P will change it for u..if they fail..jus go their international website and local aswell and curse them as much as u can.
Why are spending money on broken ph. M&P should do so.
One suggestion though always buy ur phone from one retailer and built repo woth him ..he will regard u more next time in any such incident.
Also try threatening M&P..try talking to yheir CEO not the salespersin..as that wont get u enough.
Best of luck..my suggestiin is u retrun it to M&P at all costs..ni matter what

hey dude, sorry to hear your phone's dead. It must likely be truly dead, seeing as you've tried all the repair shops, but I thought I'd type this out anyway, as I just saw some of your old post on the topic to do with "I got into boot loader by connecting wires directly to battery pins and now reflashing"
You were asking
Do U know that trick of stripping the wall charger and than short the pins ...
Which is the 1st Pin from bottom or from top..
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
...did u ever try it? The other thread I used to look at had this:
Default wires
NO need to i will explain in detail.
1. Take ur phone and put it on ur table =)
2. Turn it so u can see the camera
3. On the right u see 6 Pins.
4. The Pin 1 is nearest to Camera
5. Pin 5 would be far away from camera.

and this
it worked for me with the sixth pin to by the way but that might be why it doesn't work without the wires for me yet.

Hey triplejay
How r u dude..I m currently using an old nOKIA 3315
YES i did tried the charger trick ...dint help.Any other trick..
Well I think i shall give one last shot with this trick.(my phone is still in service stn i have to collect it yet)
The repair guy told me that there is some problem with the "POWER IC"..
He told me it will be repaired at a cost of around Rs3500 i.e around 87~88US$.
I agreed to go ahead for repairs and than next day I called him ..
To my horror he said it cant be repaired as he is not able to find the spares..
He told me the entire board needs to be repalced at a price of Rs.17000.00
i.e.425 US $ .I had bought the phone for 2000Rs (500$)
And I had told him not to repair n here i m with a dead neo.
well you should try a fully charged battery of another prophet user like me ,or may be pass me your permanent cell number privately. if this works and you enter bootloader mode and then format wm5 nvid and swear not to touch rom's again . service centre guy scare you off ,its policy wise correct they charge double the amount for battery Rs2500 which u get for Rs1200 at other places . i can understand your pain cause i lost my ipod mini same way , i think battery is culprit here .don't loose hope.but if you have connected reverse terminals then you might have burnt it already.
Some sign of LIFE
To my surprise when I bought the phone from repairs and put the phone to the wall charger the NEO the batt LED just turned RED and than went off after a few seconds...
What Is the problem with this phone
do you sell your device?

Wht do u mean.
i may sell it off if it does not get repaired..
(GOD PLS,HOPE THE PHONE STARTS WORKING )
i have the BOX with all the acessories including the stylus and HF not used atall.
This is for the HTC
Hi,
can any one tell me what is POWER IC.
the service guy told me its the problem with power IC.
The estimation was around 90$.
But later informed me that part is not available any where on the planet earth...
and the entire board needs to be changed.and guess what he told the estimation "A COOL 425$"
i have some doubt :
why is the spares so expensive??
If the spares are not available than why does HTC manufacture such a phone.
SHAME ON HTC for making such a fragile phone..for which they cannt provide service.
I m as a profession here in INDIA working for a japan based co manufacturing hometheater..we do service the set which are not introduced here in INDIA (obvious at a premium) but it does not cost the set itself.
I think most of you will agree with me on this.
(pls second the motion if u guys agree.)
any ways mean while i mailed HTC but no use i dint get any respond from their side.
I think the company willnever pay attention for a petty issue like mine.
But its admin and moderators guys of the forum who if put a word with the company will take some measures.
PLZ Dont get me wrong and take it in true spirit.
Will This Solution Work.
HI
yesterday I had put my phone on an external charger the phone gave me a RED LED atleast now after eventually giving no sign at all...
Do u guys think this can help me further

Hello all,
Lately I have been facing a lot of issues related to Defy Access.
Almost no one has any access for Defy here in Delhi. Looked online and only Amzer is providing the silicon cover and I ordered one too. But it's not at all good and looks very cheap.
Also I did mistake by ordering Mirror finish screen protector and the visiblity in open area has taken a hit. so will be changing it now.
Also I noticed, the light sensor is functioning very wierd. If i call or get a call, the screen turns black and to bring back the display I have to pull the screen guard near the screen protector. The same is happening with another person and he is using normal screen protector.
Any idea and options for better accessories in India or New Delhi??
Flipkart has the Anti glare screen protector from Amzer for 120 bucks.!!!
mine just got delivered today...... its ok ..... feels a bit rough...but a bit of the glare is reduced..... touch however feels even better than before especially while playing nova.
also, try Fommy.co.in ... they have all the accessories you night need including car docks.
Its good to go for Flipkart, they are quite trusted. But I opted for a local store for the screen protector!
Bangalore
hey guys!
do you have any idea where i can pick up a white back panel (battery door) in bangalore or if i can place an order online?
if you guys have any idea please tell me!
and is it just me or does EVERY one around me think that the defy is a bad phone!
i feel like pasting those shop keepers when they tell me "is product ke liye kuch nahin milega sir! "
oh and also do any of you have the link to the froyo update???
i didnt make a back up and now i dont seem to be finding it!

I agree that Motorola is not so popular in India like Nokia or Samsung and getting accessories for it is a nightmare in showrooms.
But I completely disagree with you saying its a bad phone. Its the best phone in this price range and compared to other mobiles, its powerful too. I Love my defy

Exactly. Defy is far superior then other phones in this price bracket.
But finding accessories is such a pain. Have been to multiple shops, Online sites such as Flipkart etc but no use.
Almost all other phones have amazing back panels and covers available but not Defy.

Depends on how dead your S2 is.
My S2 was running CM9 when it died. And when it died, it died totally. No response whatsoever, even when plugging in the USB charger. In this case, I believe Samsung has no way of knowing whether I was running a custom ROM or not.
In the end my S2 was replaced free of charge. I even got a free screen change (I pointed out the infamous bright band at the top due to uneven burn out), and a new battery. Props to Samsung. Apple would probably have wanted to rape my wife and sell my firstborn into slavery.
Im sorry about your loss I think mines on its way too... its slowly going:angel:

I should clarify that the motherboard was replaced. However seeing as they also changed the screen (confirmed due to the bright band at where the notification bar would be), I wonder why they didn't just give me a brand new phone. :laugh: I can tell that the chassis was still my old one due to the presence of my screen protector.
Sorry to hear of your loss m8.
Hope u find happiness in the future. Lol:thumbup:

I had a similar prob pc went off halfway through odin fried it..no life, i sent it to samsung they said it was a screen issue but not covered as it was damaged. I really do look after my phone n in disbelief i said put new screen in i want to know it works before i pay... A few day later they rung n said the mother board was damaged.(not under warranty of course) argued my case they gave a quote for screen etc etc. Ending up payin £120 had new screen n motherboard when device returned camera didnt work n was fuming as this took 3month in total. So replaced that myself. Never will i send another phone to them.

Sure, "your brother" .. :eyesroll:
Well, if it is really a tmo device and "your brother" flashed an incompatible radio (would be good if you were to provide the full name of the file) then your device is indeed bricked. The only way to fix it is by connecting directly (jtag).

Come On Marvlesz (your brother & eyesroll ) a bit too much i mean i didn't even get my phone before a week ago because it slipped out of my pocket before boarding a flight to egypt thats the only reason on this planet that allowed him to toy with it if he was here he would be in hospital for toyin with my stuff ...
BACK TO THE SUBJECT AND ENDING MY LIFE STORY.
As for the file names that would be impossible because i have a 3 gig folder for the htc hd2 roms / radios / etc i think that he just flashed the wrong radio on top of the "clk" without using task 29 formatting or even reinstallinf the original wm 6.5 before installing wp 7 so to many things and when i ask he says i did what u do every time !!!! AS IF..
Will i pick it up from the repair shop tomorrow not tonight i hope they fix any way reporting pack tomorrow .. // Bye

Before tripping Knox why don't you flash stock firmware and take the phone back to Samsung to get it replaced ? You do know Samsung smartphones ship with 24month warranty ? i know you said hardware is fine but it sounds like it is a hardware problem to me.. As you have tried different kernels nothing works it's hardware not software... i could be wrong but try Samsung service center...
you could be write

You do know Samsung smartphones ship with 24month warranty ? i know you said hardware is fine but it sounds like it is a hardware problem to me.. As you have tried different kernels nothing works it's hardware not software... i could be wrong but try Samsung service center...

well you might be right as im thinkin of it different kernels and still no luck so its a highly a hardware but since all kernels did not work as they supposed to i thought it might be rom related issue !! im still backing up my data and gonna try the new X-note V20 with their kernel " wish me luck "
well thats a good idea about taking the device to samsung the only problem is samsung company where i live in they suck and i do mean it ...
for example when i called to ask for their nearest location they said they dont support samsung smart phone ( huh !! but they are samsung device's ) they replied with there is another company thats handling the smart phones ... in my country ( Kuwait ) the repair shop is better than the companies and the repair shop dont know anything you dont ,,, most of them learned from the internet ... ( there are alot good repair shop but their too expensive ) im not gonna pay 75% of the device price just to fix the camera ... i would buy a new device !!
so a warranty means nothing i know it sucks but thats the true looooooolz
last reason for not doin that is
i wanna do fix anything i own myself i dont wanna depend on any repair shop or anything ....
anywayz im greatly thankful for your reply that made me think its hardware issue ... i might search for front camera part now if their cheap in amazon im gonna buy one and lets hope i dont blow up the device looooolz
Dude I know the centers suck they do the same thing here in the UK, Samsung don't handle the repair themselves third party deal with it. i had a issue with a galaxy note they replaced it with a new one within 7 days so it's not a long wait try here http://www.samsung.com/ae/support/servicelocation
And if you feel like replacing the front camera yourself ebay or Amazon are the best for parts by the way have you ever dropped your galaxy note 3 ??

That's a bit stupid you have to pay for warranty what kind of warranty is that ? Here in the UK we pay nothing not one penny warranty means manufacture pays for everything not end user.. Anyway can you paste the logcat to pastebin so i can take a look ? i'm no pro but there are some android pros on here they might be able to help?

Dude i doubt it very much you would able to install a Front facing Note 4 camera on a Note 3 for starters the connectors wouldn't most likely fit, And the camera might not be able to sit correctly in side the phone you can try but i can guarantee you will be wasting money time and money...

i hated windows for long time but dude win 8 is totally amazing ....
anywayz i fixed the camera it turned out to be a hardware issue ... i went to buy some cases for my phone and couple of chargers when i saw a small repair shop with friendly lookin workers so i asked them how much will they take for changing the front camera and the price just was too perfect to be true .... i said to my self im gonna order the repair kit and their price is too good they so i gave him my note 3 and after buying couple of cases it was done ... their work was flawless absolutely perfect and they ask for the real price not some high prices like ever other shop
thanks you've been greatly helpful and i cant thank you enough
im struggling with the keyboard thingy
