Is it possible to root this device?
I cannot find a root for this no matter where I look.
I only found a root for T280.
Would that work?
Hi buddy, please if you do own the device, would tell me if it has light bleeding on the screen or is it ok? (light bleeding is bright spots on a dark background specially on the edges of the screen)
Thank you

Did you bother reading any of that thread? I wouldn't have posted the link if it hadn't already been reported working for the t585 also.

Amm not really yah there are bright spot in the edge but all are the same brightness if you worry of your device getting white so make sure that you use the official charger

Good screen basically has 160 degree view angle. If you tilt your screen and notice any loss of colors, whites getting blown, or see blacks getting reflective you have a bad screen.
or if you are rooted, check if you have the LCD-SO-C2 display instead of the LCD-SH-C2

how do i do that?
Another couple ways are:
1. Put the WiFi calling shortcut on the desktop. Tilt the phone around and see if the you still discern the white lines in the blue logo. If they blend together (and the blue starts turning green) that's probably a bad display.
2. Open the market and pull up downloads. As you tilt the screen, look at the company names beneath the application names, as well as the lines that separate the applications. If the names disappear and the lines disappear (or go "negative"), then it's a bad display.
Of course, "bad" is relative, and if you think it's great then keep it and enjoy.

how do i check this? is there a app for this? seems like the easiest way

how do u check this?
hold down volume down and power, then select system info
So i called tmobile for replacement bec of bad screen and they are sending me another phone. The most important part i noticed was that when the rep said "i wonder why this phone is having screen issues" so tmobil know about it. Just wanted to put this out there for other people know. I hope my new phone is good haha
LCD-SH-C2 thats the one i have is that the bad one?
it looks good to me
Please post questions in the Q&A section.
I got my phone with a contract from radio shack, so is it possible to still get a replacement sent to me? Let me know guys. I have the receipt and box and all original contents.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

no not at all.
I have seen a few YouTube uploads and other users describing that during the edge tint adjustment the phone reboots and a blue screen appears with an animation that resembles some kind of firmware adjustment.
I don't get that blue screen and don't notice any difference adjusting the red tint that for me appears in the top of the phone.
Would like to hear if the adjustment worked even without that blue screen or other thoughts about this issue.
if you check local "red tint" thread (and it's huge), nobody had experienced any extra blue or other screens or double reboots (like the instructions on the Edge adjustment screen state). also, just like you, many don't notice any changes after adjusting the edges color temperature and rebooting. so either that "extra" adjustment screen was Korean update specific or Samsung has butchered international update. or, which is even worse, many screens are just defective and beyond any software fix.
Me either
Yeah, I'm also facing this issue either. So bad that our unit didn't get that blue screen and edge screen still red.:crying:
Well mine did the blue screen and rebooted and my edges are fine now

i believe that's a mistake, UK has Exynos. i'm in US with SD but if you read that other thread i mentioned, almost nobody saw that blue screen all across different versions. definitely, never heard from anybody in US mentioning it.

Ditto here. Actually, it was the second time I did the calibration that I got the blue screen with some white Android figure (didn't really pay much attention), and a reboot. Fix was effective at changing screen edge tint...which I'd likely never have noticed had there not been all these threads re same. VZW S8+ here.

Okay , yeah I've read the thread shallowly, I can't remember anyone posting that it worked and mentioning a blue screen, so that's why I made a separate thread to hear more in detail if someone got it working and if that includes seeing a blue screen. My suspicion is that the update is flawed and maybe doesn't apply the changes to all the units.

so the first time you did it there was no blue screen? just for science, can you do it few more times with different slider setting and see if you get it again?

Thanks for sharing!
So the first time it didn't appear right? Did you notice any change in edge tint that time tje blue screen didn't appear?
That gives me some hope at least , I've tried applying it in Safe Mode but that didn't work either.
The "blue screen" you guys keep mentioning is when the display driver IC itself is reflashed with different calibration values, it isn't just slapping a software overlay.
My edges are fine, but just as a test, I set them warmer and the phone displayed the blue screen as expected, and the edges became warmer, I set it back and the same happened.

the problem is, only few people get that screen on reboot hence no edge color changes are observed.

No, no blue screen the first time, IIRC. Again, I really didn't pay that much attention, but I may have done the process a second time as I didn't notice either much change or a change that I was happy with the first time. But, it did definitely change the edge "tinting", and I then switched back to amoled cinema from adaptive, so perhaps moot.
more of a request,
can the bottom capacitive buttons be lit up when notification comes? or like the nokia n8 breathing light?

my bad, onLed is for Amoled display only. You can try kingroot, and let us know if you are able to root it.
It works but just keeps screen on slightly

You probably chose a different preset when you first set-up your phone.
Of course the presets are the same...
I Will post a photo to show the difference

If you can see it on a screenshot it is a software thing... So nightlife or a different setting under Display - Screen Calibration
Everything is off...same screen configuration...
I think It is AMOLED different...more yellow and less Bright

Ok, let's belive it.
You bought a new phone from the official store or a used one? If used, the screren was replaced without telling you.
The first case: cry at the official store to replace.
The second case: nowhere to cry, live with it.

How about checking screen calibration? Try custom calibration settings.
This looks like normal variation to me. OLED suffers this issue.
I tried display calibration but I don't reach a good result, it's Always yellow/pink
Icon pack? Very strange...
I don't know if all oled have this problem, but it seems less brighter also.. probably is normal

Best to contact Amazon and talk it through see if Amazon will swap it for you
