Hi Guys, I have had my Samsung galaxy S4 for 3 days now and i have noticed a line of pixels going from the top to the bottom on the right side of the screen. Its a perfectly straight line and about 1 pixel wide, It goes all the way down the screen and is always there. It sometimes flickers and if i take the battery out and turn the phone back on disappears but always comes back after a few minutes. I will try and provide a picture if anyone wants to see.
Thanks for any help guys!
I would see.. so can i control mine :\
Sorry what do you mean?
good day guys, i'm having a big problem with my GS4. When i unlock the phone the screen will appear and the phone is unlocked but the screen will be black after 1-3 seconds.. But i can still use the phone i mean i can hear the sound when i adjust the volume and i even took a screenshot. Is this a software problem or my LCD is faulty? But now i used my phone for 3 straight hours and the problem didn't happen..
When i am playing game or doing other kind of work, S-view (Black screen) appears randomly and in between screen automatically locked.
While playing games screen automatically rotates (Horizontal screen view-----> Turns into Vertical view)
in "nameless rom'' it doesn’t happen
But when we use Samsung original or modified rom it happens again.
Kindly give suggestion for resolve this.

I have the same problem with my S4, while gaming the black screen and clocks would flash, the game image would flip from landscape to portrait and back to landscape and the game would pause. I also only noticed the problem occured on TW based ROM's and never on CM11 based ROMs - but CM11 is too buggy and bad on battery for my usage.
I took it back to Samsung Service Centre and they replaced the mainboard. 2 days later the problem was back, I took it back and they replaced the screen - they said the magnetic sensor was part of the screen. The next day the problem happened again.
I noticed this mostly happened when I was at work and my signal was on EDGE (my cellular provider signal is bad at work) but never when at home or when I had H or H+. I set my mobile network to WCDMA only and the problem hasn't reappeared since.
Try doing the same and let us know buddy
Try any of this possible solutions.

Hello Edge users,
Im using the Edge now for a month and running into some issues. Maybe you can help me
1. When using Chromecast to mirror the screen it also shows the edge screen which is useless. How can I prevent that part from projecting?
2. When I make a screencapture it also captures the edge screen which is also nog usefull most op te time
3. When Im in the car the phone is in a holder. One app showed traffic camera notifications in the middle of the screen on my Note 2. It is now showed on the edge screen where I can hardly see it. Can I get it back in the middle?
4. When using another app in the car, incoming calls are shown on the edge screen, but because of the phone holder I cannot reach the accept button. Can I get a call in the car onscreen?
I hope you can help me.
Settings call settings in the phone app will fix the call on thedge issue.
Swipe from the left on screen for screen shots.
Chromecast... ? Dunno what to tell you.
Other apps. Dunno
Hi, anyone have issues with galaxy s8 when making/receiving calls ? My S8 was pre-ordered and on the first day of usage im faced with this issue, when making call or receiving phone randomly lights on display (once) and genlty randomly vibrates (as you press home button or nav button), then im take away phone from ear and put it back to ear display turns off, sometimes it keep turned off as normaly but sometimes it lights on again and vibrates, so i have to do previous steps or if ignore that issue than display turns off after some time and when im take away phone from ear to end call phone is locked and display won't light up until press lock button. Also im noticed that when im lock phone or even take it in hand (fingers touches both curved sides of display) phone also gently vibrates and turns from AOD to lock screen, this issue is also randomly. Some times AOD screen suddenly goes bright and than fades like it should be. After two weeks of chatting with samsung and store support im was send it to "service", they tested phone and after 10 days im received phone with status "no problems detected, software reflashed" but issues still not gone. And im can't replace it with new one because store refuses to replace it and says that they don't replace devices with software issues. Now im stuck and don't know what to do.
P.S. in *#0*# menu proximity sensor ADC values randomly keep changing even if nothing is in front of sensor, values are between 79-125 and when completely put finger on sensor values is 16368
Same issue here. Not sure why.
same for me too, international dual sim version s8
I have little bit different issue related to light sensor. My phone doesn't turn off the screen and locks in a pocket or if I close light screen by hands.

I have the same issue (also the oversensitive home button issue too).
I have a similar issue. But my screen never lights up. Neither during a call or when on the desk, for example. But during calls it sometimes vibrates as if I hard pressed the home button even though the screen is still off and I haven't pressed anything with my face, nor have I received any notifications. It doesn't seem to happen once every minute either (some phones notify you of every passing mine during a call).
It's not a big deal for me, just kind of curiously annoying.

Check in settings on ambient display, pocket mode, etc. Or maybe a cache wipe and reboot will solve.
Like Settings-Display-Screen Mode
-Keep screen turned on/off
Thanks to Samsung and Consumer Rights Protection Centre, together we forced store to replace phone. It was a factory deffect, so anyone who has similar problem im advice to replace phone.
