sometimes when i turn on my phone with the power button, the whole screen is a neon pink or blue colour. you can still see everything through it, its like there is a transparent neon pink screen over it. everything still works fine, and it doesnt go away untill i turn off the screen and turn it back on, like lock and unlock. it has only happened a few times, and i want to know why. i am running ZEUS 6, on rogers canada. thanks.

Then you should be researching and reading. This has been brought up and talked about numerous times in multiple threads.
Edit: Notice I didn't give you the answer.

bro i checked the other threads and they dont help with jack, so i made a new one hoping id get some straight andswers from nice people who i can thank
I'm not that smart but could it be because of the bootloaders bigfau? Wondering if I'm doing the right reading of threads.

If boot loaders are messed up, your phone won't boot up in the first place and give you a rainbow screen (colored lines all across the screen). From what you mentioned, its doesn't seem so. Its a normal issue due to some display drivers problem. Don't bother too much. Just turn the screen off and on.

Idk if anybody has really had this happen ever on their android phone. Sometimes the color of my screen will be pink. Now just a while ago it was blue. Like everything is blue. Is this water damage or what?

Mine did this when I started using MIUI, until then I never had this problem. Just turning the screen on and off seemed to fix it but I'm curious as to if it's actually hardware or something in the ROM. My infuse isn't that old.
Yeah, it's happened to me about 3 times, 2 yellow, one BRIGHT purple.
It only happens on full brightness too, as soon as you touch the brightness meter, it goes away.
Note to self, set brightness just a notch below full.

every once and a while when i go to unlock my infuse, my screen is messed up.
it looks like normal but everything is 1 color a lot of the times blue.
strangely my last one did this as well.

idk..I'm wondering if this is the rainbow effect encountered when you are running a gb (2.3) based rom without the GB bootloaders.
possible solution: flash gb bl from dani's post. flash to a stock gb leak before flashing a custom rom - uckj4 or above should have bl included

its weird that a lot of us are having this problem, but it hadnt really been brought to attention yet
fwiw,
I have tried stock leaks, victory, darky's, gsinfuse, numas, caty, bionix, and zeus...couldn't remember a few more.
I've soft bricked and boot looped a few times.
I heimdalled back to uckj4 stock and go from there.
I've not seen the colors that you have mentioned.
I've not use miui.
I usually try to wipe everything and factory reset a few times as well.
I don't usually back up any roms, kernels or nandroids.
I have backed up some apps with tibu..but restore only the app..not the data.
idk but i suspect the colors you see may be related to "unclean" flash on top of old ones or bl issue...but that is just my 2 cents...
If when you do flash a new rom, consider wiping everything and heimdall or odin a later leak before going to a new rom.
I have had this happen to me on many roms.

Does it persist until you lock/unlock screen?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using Tapatalk
This has happened to me even on stock 2.2 when I first got the phone. Its not critical. Because as mentioned, all you have to do is hit the power button to shut the screen off. When it comes back on its fine. But it is really strange..
Yeah. Today was my first time seeing a green screen lol. So far I've seen the blue, red-pinkish, and now green screen.
Sent from my SGH-I997
Yep, I've seen it too. I just flip the screen off and on again. Not a big issue I guess, just kinda amusing.
I freaking love this.. sometimes it happens 5 times in a row. I tried taking a screenshot once when it was this BA looking black and red but it came out normal.. so I was look whatever. It's not a big deal and it doesn't happen that often. Tried almost every rom other there, and I'm pretty sure that it has happened on every one.. atleast once.
I have noticed this happen on 2.3.6 based ROMs. Our devs are already looking into this. They'll update us whenever they have any update.

Yeah it nvr lasts longer then that. That's was my first instinct to turn it off and on and it always goes away. So i have never tried to unlock the phone to see how long it stays like that. Yeah i never posted anything or cared to look up anything because it only happens once and a great while and always goes right away.

The lines are driving me insane as well. The blobs are noticeable in clockwork mod in the dark. I see like a bunch of black dots on my screen everywhere.... Damn.. is Samsung planning on fixing this issue for our phones?
They say they are "looking into it."
I only ever see the blobs on otherwise black screens if my eyes are very dark-adjusted. One example is if the phone is off and charging, and I wake it up (but don't turn it on) in the middle of the night.
That is: the blobs are the next best thing to a non-issue for me. The lines are a minor annoyance that I can ignore easily enough under almost all circumstance.
Both exist though, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. A little disappointing to be sure.
I've found that the best way to evaluate your phone for blobs is to take your phone, set it to the lowest brightness setting, use the Gallery to display the color #101010 on it, put the phone in a dark room, then use a DSLR camera on the no-flash setting to take a picture of it. You need to have NO light at all coming from anywhere else, so a closet or internal room with a counter works best. It'll take about 10 seconds to capture, during which the phone and the camera need to be perfectly still.
Ignore the green tint - it's a side-effect of the overexposure.
My results:
Phone 1: My mother's Skyrocket, purchased about a year ago.
Phone 2: My Skyrocket, purchased about 6mos ago. I gave the link for this image to an AT&T Rep in the Warranty dep't, and got an RMA ready within 10 minutes.
On the new stock 2.3.4 that was just released, there are 2 features I miss greatly.. one is the dimming of the led lights.. and the other is using them as a notification. Has anyone found an app that works? I did find 1 notification app but from what I read, it sucks the battery down cuz it flashes.. can't do a steady light.
Thanks !
Did you try LG Touch LED Notification? It has steady light option.

There's a link in the thread I started about the application for notification toggles in this sub-forum. As to your question about the text things. Your phone lights up while you're texting? That's kind of normal don't you think. The screen coming on when the text comes in is a stock messaging thing. Nothing that can be done except installing a custom messaging application, as far as I know, I like that it lights up.

Try a factory reset, there is no screen burn in on LCDs
i can confirm that this is true while it looks like burn in once you turn the screen off for a while it will disappear its, more of a ghost image. use amoled Burn in fixer form the play store or an all grey image and you'll be able to see it where the status bar is located.
This was really bad on some v10s but I haven't experienced it yet on my v20. It's not permanent like led burn in. It's a ghost image.
On my v10 it showed up when I used an app like my Word text game which kept the same image on the screen for a while. It was also worse/showed up faster the brighter I had the screen.
Glad I haven't seen it on the v20!
You also can't screen capture screen burn as that is hardware, this looks like a software bug. Tho not completely understanding your first post.

i recently got this as well.. Sad that it has happened so quickly for me... Rebooting and shutting down didnt help at all. Nor do I thing factory reseting would either. It showed up before I was going to sleep so I locked it and went to bed. It went away the next morning. It freaked me out and made me think I was going to need to get a replacement but all is good.
Yeah I realized afer I finally woke up that you can't screen cap that lol.
It did it again last night at work. It was Facebook yet again. I played a few YouTube vids and made it go away.

I haven't had the luck to experience that. But with IPS panels it is bound to disappear at some point. Now, you are only missing to find the way to generate the ghost image once again. IF it only happens with specific apps, or if it happens with everything in general.
