I personaly never heard of bubbles surfacing from under a glass screen lol but if it should be true i would exchange the phone and be done with it. Or check your roof for leaks

I saw it on forums, But the people had cheap phones. I will must exchange it...

So we are waiting for your feedback after exchange

Hey guys, so I did not exchange it yet, but I discovered interesring fact, so when it's cold, there are no bubbles on screen, but when it's warm, its much more visible... And I think the mistake is on digitizer because i can clean it, so it is not under display

got a regular silicone case. better for drops and i think its kinda gay to only look at 1/4 of the screen unless you remove the cover, when you can always look at 100% of the screen.
I have to agree... What's the point in looking at a portion of your screen? When most likely you'll open it up fully to reply?.

Haha yeah but just having the ability to see some without exposing your whole screen is kinda cool.

using about 2 days.. it is nice but would be better if someone mods the sview screen adding more apps and abilities. now you only can take notes use camera and listen music.
I was very tempted in buying sview case but then i thought about it for a moment why did i buy note 3? One of the main reasons because of the massive screen so what's the point in buying sview so I can cover up most of the screen!!
The first thing i thought about was "Wont some part of the screen be unprotected with that case?, i don't want any scratch on my phone"

I want it for viewing the message details without having to unlock the phone. I can bring it out of my pocket, glance at it and put it away. Swiping to unlock may not take long, but I generally have a password. I am hoping that the SView allows me to view the info even with a password lock
In time I'll get the Gear, but only when I know it works and probably when they reduce the inflated price (more than many phones!).

[Q] I dropped my S4 i9500.

Well, the worst thing happened, I dropped my i9500. I would rather die. Now there's a red line on my screen on the left side of screen. It dropped on its base (the battery side) yet, it affected the screen. It's static, stays, changes color according to the app I'm using. Like right now it's red on the keyboard, but kinda green on the chrome app. I'm sorry I don't know how to view screen shots, but I've attached two .png file.
My question, can I make this right, or do I have to take it to the Samsung people?
Oh man! I just viewed the screenshot from my computer, and I don't see any line. So, basically it's somewhere below the screen, where the software doesn't capture it in screenshots.
Send it in to Samsung
Just give it to the Samsung people if you still have warranty

Unfortunately i think you cracked your display. Fortunately it still works. Screenshot doesn't capture it because it's physical. Not a software issue. I payed almost 200 euros to change my display. It's not covered by warranty

Dude, the screen is not broken. Something's physically disturbed from the inside. And anyways, here at my place, people are stupid, so they'll just change my screen for free, 'cause they think I got warranty.

Looks like a protector is on. You should remove it and check.
Indeed. It's just the factory applied protector is coming away isn't it? Hard to tell from those pics with all the reflection. Down on a flat table would have been easier to see

There is definately a screen protector applied, just look near the sensors around the screen you can see the parts where thers is air under the protector :silly::silly:

No brother , I have not put any screen protector.
that is not bubble , that is coating fade away .
So sad I have got manufacturer defected phone.
It REALLY looks like some kind of protective film. Are you sure it's not? I've never heard of "coating fading away" before.
Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
I do not see anything remotely looking like a screen protector or anything like that, that said, it is just an unfortunate production malfunction which can always happen and so obvious you don't have to worry about it and can just return it to get a replacement. I do not really see the need for a whole thread on such a problem.
Would I feel bummed out about it, of course, but these things happen and are easily solved. Thread closed?

[Q] Lighting not even?

Hello everyone!
I bought my gn3 about a week ago and now i noticed that the lighting isn't even????
Did i damage it or note 3's have this issue?
its visible when the brightness is set to about 30% and on a gray background. its most visible on the left side of the screen (like a slightly brighter tint or something)
can anyone check it on their devices as well for me?
Thanks!
Edit : it's not only on the left side it's all over the screen. when I open the phone app I can see the background isn't one color but scales of dark grey and I think it's supposed to be black.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
It's like that and there's really nothing you can do.
Except trying to find another N3 that doesn't have that, or at least in a smaller scale, but good luck with that.
And next time, do some Google searching...The phone is now more than one year old, so any other problems you encounter, you definitely wont be the first one.

Hm, this looks more like Light Bleed. That does warranty attempting to replace it, it shouldn't have that. (Although it often does in a lot of devices)
Well. What's the cause of that? Is it some loose screw?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
So I was thinking of replacing it. But before that I made a research about light bleeding. They say it's pretty common. So, I'm afraid if I replace it I get a worse one. What do you guys think?

It's a display problem. Samsung will replace it for free.
I see. But what if the new unit has the same issue? Do I keep replacing?

I have no idea where you're from, but there's usually more than one Samsung Service Centre in a country.. You can find the addresses on the Samsung website under Contact.
I just called them and oh gee. It's a 30 minute drive. I'm too lazy to drive for 30 minutes. Also I have exams. So maybe next week? xD

tempered glass screen protectors???

Hey forum, I just got a s7 edge and am in the market for a tempered glass screen protector.
I've hit Amazon and ebay, scammed through pics and reviews from customers and it looks like there's little to none that cover the whole screen (edges included) that are durable, adhere well and stick to the screen and if there case friendly that would be nice.... If anyone has any they'd recommend Id appreciate it.
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app
Its to hard make them out of glass because the screen is curved. Ive haven't seen any that have gotten good ratings. A few companies like zagg have them on the way. Zagg invisible shield is my go to protector. I'm sure there are a lot of great protectors I have not tried.

Don't waste your money on "tempered glass" protector. I've had two different brands and both of them lifted off the phone and cracked. None of them seem to be case friendly.

Hey papa mag, by Amy chance have you received the taken temp glass yet? I'm eager to hear what you half to say about it, this normal screen protector stuff isn't too bad but I'm eager to get my hands on a temp glass that is half decent, the zagg one should drop next month from what I hear.
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yes I did and it was a piece of cake to apply. Unfortunately I was stupid and in too big of a rush to put my case back on. I noticed that one corner of my case was hung up and while trying to fix that issue I cracked the screen protector.
I will say that it lined and matched up perfectly no issues with touch sensitivity the edge feature is less responsive. Do to my own stupidity I have another glass on the way.

F that bro. You'll be just spending money on screen protectors. I still have my Zagg shield that I had to literally cut every single corner in, in order for any of my cases to fit properly. Sucks to not have tempered glass I love it but I rather have my edges. Im looking forward to the note 6. Rumored 4000 MAh battery, and two variants. Everyone including myself will take a note with spen and the beauty of the edge screen along with s7 edge features(water resistant/SDcard). Next year there bringing out the BIG GUNS. With foldable phones. Seeing people really liked the edge I believed Samsung is ready now, back when they revealed the concept(S3) it wouldn't be a good idea, now tho im sure they perfected the technology and were ready for what will bring out next.

I got the Taken Screen protector today. Let's just say I feel "Taken". Protector went on ok and that wasn't the issue. It was a fingerprint/palm print/smudge magnet. It was so bad that I thought there was a protective cover plastic on the glass. Sadly there wasn't. There is a thin piece of sticky adhesive around the inside of the glass that is used to adhere the protector to the phone. This made a crinkly sound anytime you pressed where the adhesive was. After 15 minutes, my screen was naked again.
