So I flashed sean's lates 4.2e r3 rom and set one of the new Galaxy S3 wallpapers. Then suddenly I noticed my screen had a streak of dark lines and spots on one area. At first I thought maybe my screen was dirty but it wasn't. I changed the wallpaper to a different one and the streak of dark lines remained. Then I realized maybe I screwed up my screen. I never had this problem with the screen where there are dark spots when the brightness is set to low. My screen was always fine.
Then about few mins ago I had to do a nandroid backup and went back to my previous rom. Guess what, screen was fine, no dark streaks or spots anywhere. Any of you encountered this problem?
This is normal, it has always been like that, but you only noticed it now because you used a dark background. search skyrocket + screen + blobs

I'm using the Voodoo App to set some custom colors for my screen. (i've changed the gamma hack and the multipliers). Now, whenever my screen times out to go to the locked state, during those 2 seconds of screen backlight dimming, the colors get messed up, with a sort of greenish mist all over the screen. This disappears upon touching the screen again.
I either want to know how to disable those 2 seconds of light dimming or how to avoid the issue altogether.
Using Brainmaster's MIUI and T1.44 kernel.
Can't think of anything but you could try a different kernel, or flash a newer version of trinity. Brainmaster posts them on his thread (second post)

Here's a fix for the Galaxy S. Should also work for the NS.

Thanks for your replies but neither worked
I changed the settings under gamma hack in Voodoo and my issue doesn't occur anymore.

what setting do you changed?
Raise your screen dim level if you're on CM7 or lower your voodoo color values.

Well I flashed the NSCollab with a matrix v9.5 and then I noticed the screen had an orange tint, I restored my CM7 backup but the screen tint came back after 10 minutes so I restored to my stock 2.3.7 backup and I noticed that maybe an hour after I restored the orange tint came back
Any suggestions of what could be wrong?
Is my screen messed up/should I unroot and send it in for repair?

How orange is it? Can you tweak the colors with Voodoo app?
Its like a clear Filter is on top of it, nothing like the Orange Render filter but lighter than that
I went into the App and clicked default 2.3.3 under the Screen V1 Gamma Offset Color Hack and under the RGB i clicked the reset
It seems to look better but I think i still see an orange tint but it's very light now
I've suddenly incurred a strange screen problem. I was updating my phone to the latest CM10.1 nightly (4/22), and after the phone installed it, it rebooted, as it should. During the reboot, the initial Samsung Galaxy SIII logo showed on the screen, and then the screen went black. I thought it was strange that I didn't see the cyanogenmod boot animation, so I waited a minute. The notification LED lit up and my phone chimed with the usual ringtone I hear at bootup, and the hardware keys were lit up on either side of the home button, but the screen did not light up. I am stuck with the phone in this condition. The phone is actually on, and if I click the power button to turn on the screen I can place my thumb where the lock screen is and feel it vibrate as I unlock the phone, but I cannot see anything on the screen. The screen remains completely black. Removing the battery and all other considered options have been unhelpful.
Any thoughts on this guys? I'd really appreciate some help or solutions to attempt. Is this the Galaxy S3 "sudden death" syndrome?
Have you tried flashing back to an earlier backup? It could simply be a bad download. If your backup does the same thing then there's a bigger problem here.
Do you see anything immediately after a reboot, before it boots into android? If yes, the problem is in android or the ROM you flashed. If no, I'm afraid your backlight may have died. That happened to me AND my sister's s3.
Also, take it into a pitch black room and see if you can see the faintest of backlight on your phone. When my backlight went, I could see everything in a pitch black room, like it was on -20 brightness.

I had that exact same problem. Although mine was because the version of CM 10.1 wasn't compatible with the custom kernel I was using, do you think that has anything to do with it?

Hey guys! Ok, so I am aware of the yellow tint that many people are having. I currently use Franco Kernel and Faux's Gamma Calibration App, but I have not found good values yet, and none fix the tint. Anyways, when I reboot my phone, the screen is perfect, but after a few seconds the yellow tint appears. However, the tint only applies to the area above the on screen keys (attached, slightly hard to see). The on screen keys are perfectly white, but the whites above (such as text, icons, etc) are yellow tinted. What I'm trying to say is that the on screen keys are perfect, while the screen above has a yellow tint. Is there a way I can fix this without installing another kernel? I really like Franco's, and do not want to switch
Thanks!
when did the tinting start? have you considered going completely back to stocked unrooted and starting over? just curious.
Tinting started a few weeks ago. It suddenly occurred. I run Lux auto brightness, and disabled to see what would happen but nada.
Wow, so that weird tinting issue was because of Lux!! Uninstalled it and now my screen is much better. The whites are still a little greyish though

Hey guys, new to XDA here.
My phone is currently experiencing green screen. It started 2 days ago. I have been using dark mode since I got this phone last year and two days ago I noticed that the screen color isnt as vibrant. Imagine a black screen with a bit of white color. I also noticed that the lower right of my screen got really hot.
Then I restarted my phone a couple of times and I also noticed that during the Huawei animation, green spots started to display on the screen. Also, the whole screen starts to green when unlocking using fingerprint.
I turned off my screen the qhole day and opened it before I went to sleep and the issue went away. But right now, the screen would randomly flicker and display green color.
Im not sure if this is a display issue. But I have read that Mate 20 suffers this as well. I wanted to ask here first before I bring this to the service center.
Anyone experiencing this as well? How did you fix it?
Thanks!
Ok, so my phone is experiencing the greenscreen right now and I dont think it will disappear anytime soon. I did, however, install the Device Info HW app on my phone. There is this 'shell_back' on the 'Thermal' tab that had risen to 41 degrees. Any idea what that is?
