grainy screen resolution

Im sorry i have to admit that i did not search the forum first. Im posting from my phone and for some reason it wont let me search. Is there a problem with some of the phones screens looking grainy? Nothing looks sharp at all you can pretty much see every single pixle. Is this the expected quality of the phone or should i take it back to tmobile? Thanks for your advice in advance.

I have owned the sgs4g since before cwm was out for it and this is the first I have heard of this issue.

Wow, ok i guess that answers my question i wish i could take a screen shot of it to show you guys but im not rooted. Ill maybe try with my dslr.

ok, these are what I got.. how you see it is how we see it when using the phone.
I've included the one with a flash because it shows it kinda better. Ignore the greasy screen

Is it new? Stock? Take it back.

Flip, i agree it is hard to see but if you look at the first picture... At the top of the dock you can clearly see its not very smooth... When looking at peoples screen shots on here... Theirs dont look anything like mine. It is new and stock.. I guess im just going to take it into the store and see what they say.
Also.. In the first pic... You can see how you can see some red and blue... And lines... Thats not the camera... Thats exactly how it looks on the phone

Definitely take it back and let them know it's not supposed to be like that. My lines are very smooth, nothing close to what I see in your pictures. The misaligned lines in picture 1 is already good enough proof.

It is. Also, hopefully the Verizon logo on the front better be a sticker.

GS3 is still better!

How legit do we think that is? Verizon on the home button seems a little far fetched don't ya think?

This is Verizon. They'd do anything to make sure people knew it was a Verizon phone.
I just thank Samsung for not letting them do that on the S3.

uhhh YA.... Don't think ANY provider would do that but I did find it pretty cool that Verizon store is selling the Samsung battery cover WITHOUT their logo... LOL

Please tell me that is a sticker I can peel off. Pshh thats hideous.. kinda like that verizon logo that was one the s3 in that one commercial before it dropped... o well can always buy a new button

First thought: oh god, awful logo.
Second thought, at least if they do that I can easily switch the button and be logo free.

I want it if the stupid logo on the home button isn't there on the final version or easily removable

Is it really that big of a deal if the button just happens to say Verizon on it? I mean I don't stare at my home button all day.

You know, we already have a Galaxy Note 2 thread (right by this one) with the same picture posted.
Gotta love seeing multiple threads on the same stuff!!! I'm going to make one about the update now, since we don't have any if those

did the case make the speaker sound muffled when lay down/screen up on a flat surface?

Nope, Just tried it.

Very nice looking case and should provide excellent protection, but appears to be a bit thick for my taste. Also, doesn't look like it will be a fingerprint magnet, which is a plus.

I've had my commuter for a few days now. I love it, not one complaint.

i think there is just root for i337 and to flash roms you have to unlock it and install a custom recovery;but there is not a boot loader unlocker yet!

No. Because I highly prefer the front of a phone to be black or at least dark coloured, having all the focus on the screen.
I ordered the White and Lime Shell though.

I wouldn't but my wife would. She only wants white phones even the front bezel.

It makes the screen looks smaller

Exactly this for my reasoning as well. For myself, a white phone would be like having a white TV. Distracting from the focus.

Personally, no. It'll get dirty easily. Soon enough, your white Moto G will be yellow. My white Sixaxis is like that, even if I cleaned it regularly.

personally i wouldn't but it does look good and think it would sell.

Ditto. It looks just as handsome in white.

That's a mock up though. They aren't releasing a white version.

I am 21038% aware that it's a mockup. Thanks for the clarification, though. There's little reason to believe it would look ANY different than pictured above.

Edit: Unless they throw in a random orange accent or something. It's my favorite color, mind you, but boy, would that be a curve ball!

What laucher is that?

$5 bucks for a can of Fusion plastic spray paint..........and you can have any color skin you want!! Just sayin'

Yeah it stinks.. hopefully it's no t hardware

I also have that ....
Heard from others that it's a hardware problem and the only fix is exchange. Other carriers seem to send a new device. How is the verizon?
It seems that we are getting refurbished one after 14days of purchase according to

Anyone tried to talk or chat with Verizon Customer service?
