Ever get that feeling that someone doesn't like you?
Just now after taking a picture of the keyboard membrane my universals Co-ax cable decided to break, for the second time since I got it in late November
unlike last time though it's not completely broken, the screen only works when the display is twisted (see video), I'm wondering how long it will last like that though
anyone know where i can get a replacement cheap or has a broken universal that I can buy for spares?
thanks

is the screen cracked? or just not displaying anything. if it's the screen thats cracked i would be interested
NO screen not cracked just don't show anything. You can heard the sound when you click on screen.

hello all.
just bought a new galaxy tab for the price of $750 here in Baghdad today. it was brought over from UAE and has full Arabic and the best android 2.2 system.
i am extremely happy to have it however the happiness stops to when the spec of dust appeared to my eyes. right under the sticker that comes on the screen appeared a white dot to the very right of the screen. however when i use the unit the although not apparent it looks like a dead pixel rather than a spec of dust because it looks to mix colors. (i would take a picture later and attach it to this post) -- the area i am talking about can be shown here. its on the very top right hand corner of the center image in step 18; http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-Teardown/4103/3
i am considering tearing the unit apart and blowing some air under the screen this is if the item is dust.. is it easy? i am looking over some videos to take it apart. -- according to the steps from the link above step 18 requires a heat gun and that i am not too good with.
OR
shall i just ignore it?
Any experiences with things like this?
thanks!
[wow a 104 views as of this edit and no replies? hmm]
there was an article that showed the teardown of a tab. They said it took an extream amount of heat to seperate the glass from the screen.
I would send it back to Samsung for replacement or try and ignor it.

+1 for sending it back to Samsung, a device this expensive shouldn't come with any dead pixels! If you open it to try and fix it yourself you'll invalidate your warranty and then will really be stuck with it!!

thanks for the response guys.
that option really isnt valid here where i am. i tried with the shop i bought it from but now i am deciding to just put up with it. oh well.
perhaps those dead / stuck pixel fixers or something...
Try this Pixel Fixer program. I had two stuck pixels on my DroidX when I got it. This fixed it.

i tried jpixel fixer (i forgot the name) and all it did for 10mins was make the screen look like an old TV. so i stopped it. it didnt get rid of that one dreaded dot.
i'll try your suggestion

Don't give up after one try. It took several attempts over a number of days using Pixel fixer to clear up my stuck pixels.

no answer???
I am no pro with screens, So i may be wrong, but it looks like it has been either burnt or had an impact with a sharp object in that area of the screen, return it for a new one, hopefully they will replace it.
Looks like the LCD definitely needs to be changed. It looks like it's burnt or either a reaction to a magnet but I'm not quite sure what can cause that. Costs can vary but directly from LG will cost you parts+labor+shipping. Check if that Orange spot still register when you touch it.

Options: Send to LG to get it fixed (probably costs more than $100+ depending), sell it as is and get another phone (won't get as much for it with the spot) or keep it and use it as is since it still registers touch (spot might be a little annoying).

hmmmmm :c you are probably going to have to replace the screen yourself (cheaper) or live with the yellowness
I've got some yellowness appearing along the top right of the screen. Its barely noticeable but its likely to get worse over time.
From what I can tell, it seems to be related to heat/warmth. Its winter here and after a walk outside, the orangish patches pretty much go away. They appear more intense when sitting on my desk next to my laptop (right near the vent).
Same problem
Same thing here... Same location and same color.

I'll send you pictures if you want to email me I don't know how to upload pictures here I never had these problems with my g3 but they all seem to be common with all LGs[email protected]
Hi guys! just want to ask this:
My scenario a while ago. I'm walking in the rain and navigate in google maps. (not heavy rain) and then the s5 lcd as a water drop on it. I noticed that when i pressed in the lcd and the response is rumble. any idea guys?
It is water resistant stopping water from getting inside the phone, but if rain hits the screen, it still causes problems just like you have touched the screen with your finger
I was trying to take photos in the rain and it was impossible because the rain acted like a touch on the screen and started pressing buttons, taking photos, changing settings

?? you know mate lcd and touchscreen replacement here in the Philippines cost is 7,000 to 8,000. I have a friend certified technician he told me i will regret using samsung because of the parts.
Expensive!
Well, in my family we have S2, S3, S4 and my S5, and none of them have ever needed any parts replacing, and all are still going strong
So hopefully you'll never need to replace anything either

Haha. Anyway mate are you using zero lemon?
Nah just plain old S5, no case, stock battery
I ordered a case from Amazon a few months ago but it never arrived, got a refund and never bothered ordering another one yet
Seen a few I like the look of on eBay
And I'm generally always around a PC / Charger, so no need for extended battery yet either

Well if I remember, it has already happened on the day i bought the phone but i didn't really excpecting this to be the screen problem that is really annoyed me. So i think its's not because the screen protector, rather the screen itself because it only happen in 1 spot, not the entire screen.

Guys, just update and it will be fine. Last kernel included in january firmware fixed all bugs (aod grayishness, screen flickering etc.) You can flash Luxembourg firmware if you have carrier unlocked j730.
I the most times you just need to do factory reset
