When I'm charging my tablet the screen is a bit harder to use, I have to press harder and when I'm scrolling it stops and selects whatever I my finger was over, is this normal? Or is my tablet faulty?

Anyone?

It might be a grounding issue. Try flipping the charger block upside down and plug it in. I heard of that fixing it before. I don't have that issue though. If it still keeps occurring, you can get them to send you a new charger or exchange device if still under warranty.
This is normal for touch screen devices, in my experience. While charging, the touch screen is a little bit more jumpy or less sensitive.
It may be a side effect of some aspect of your power supply or charger. Whether it is a little bit of line noise that affects the capacitance measurements in the phone, or something else, I don't know. The effect may be stronger at certain times, or for certain people. For me it happens a lot more on my Galaxy S2 than my Galaxy Note 10.1, and a lot more at home than at work.
I get it with my phone, I've herd that its a problem with the circuity but I was just wanting to know if all of them do it or if its just mine in which case I'll take it back

Mine also has this issue. Never saw it on any other devices before, only on my Note 10.1, could it be the wacom digitizer?

It is pretty crazy how people who have the skyrocket ignore that the screen looks awful when dim. Its even worse that Samsung has not stopped production to fix the problem either. You would think the white one would come with a fixed screen. Usually by this time you have people writing reviews and ranting about phone defects on YouTube, yet with this phone nothing. Just hoping someone agrees with me and maybe we can stick these problem up samsungs behind.

Dont think anyone cares that much
Why use the screen dimmed? Kinda defeats the purpose of having a super amoled

Agreed.
I have mine set at 50% and its bright enough for me all the time.
I never go lower than that though, so I personally never experience poor screen quality.

I've never notice the problems mentioned throughout the forum regarding dim settings and colors/lines. I'm sure that to a good eye mine is too afflicted.
One a side note, took my screen protector off today, and man! is that screen gorgeous. It's gonna be hard to put it back on, but I learned that lesson with the Atrix when I took it's protection off and it hit the ground.
You see, and that is the problem. You are ignoring to issue. So when your in a dark room you have your screen full brightness? I don't so it does bother me.

I agree my screen sucks at low brightness. I mainly run my low to save power only turn it up when outside. I wrote a review on Samsung site and did give a bad review on the screen.

I just picked up a white skyrocket yesterday and I've got the screen issues / lines. Looks like a "brushed metal" overlay on top of everything.
I'm going to be getting it exchanged for a new one tomorrow.

Maybe I got lucky... I've had my I727-SR for about 4wks now and haven't experienced the screen lines / screen problems others are posting.... I consistently run at low brightness with a screen protector and screen looks perfect.... no lines, blobs or other anomalies.

Mine has it. So does the white one I looked at. It bothers me and I notice it often. But its the only phone on AT&T that I want and LTE just went live a week ago. I will sadly have to live with it :-(

My screen is great. No lines or any of that kind of stuff.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
just picked one up today. white one.
i see the lines below 50% brightness. above, they are gone.
I believe this is just a simple issue of having the same pixel density of the galaxy S2 but with a larger screen.
this should be device wide.......i dont see why people should have different results....
edit: i have it only above 30% brightness actually....
No problems here... at 0 it still looks great, no lines or weird issues

I have personally seen this vary from device to device. what may not be that bad on yours could be 20x's worse on another. others of us are in fact picky and expect more for what we paid for this device.
To each their own

playing video
When I play video ie Netflix YouTube etc I notice that the picture quality is not.what I expect.from a 250$ phone. I love this phone and that is.my only complaint. I have tried.adjusting.the brightness but it doesn't seem to help. Is this a problem that all are having?
I just got the Skyrocket today and just now turned the brightness all the way down and did not see any issues with screen clarity. Looks pretty good to me.

Mine has the same issues. However, they are ignorable if you customize the look of your phone. I changed the screen density and customized my phone with a dark bg and modified system apks.

I just wonder if this phone has the same problem as the Samsung vibrant cheap pin for GPS you had to take apart the bend it up and wedge a piece of copper between it so it would make a good connection.

Yeah, mine is great. You want to see problematic GPS, just pick up a TF201, 300 or 700...

That's how I got the GPS on my S3 to work, only I didn't wedge a piece of copper I just bent it up a little. I'd rather keep my phone than get a used VZ replacement...
Ya the copper is optional after a period of time without a wedge though it will prob start doing the same thing again.

I miss my att iPhone 4. GPS would lock instantly and super accurate. This takes about 20 seconds sometimes and it still throws you off by a small distance. Not trolling just saying Samsung should put more effort into their flagship phone

I've noticed that my GPS's performance is dependent on the ROM I'm running. On CM10 it locks on instantly but on a stock ROM it takes for ever to lock on and really only locks on quickly when I'm already driving. My wife's S3 which has never been messed with instantly locks on with no issues.

Interesting... my GS3 would lock almost instantly on the stock TW ROM, but on CM10 it takes 30 sec or more to get even a weak lock with a clear view of the sky, and frequently loses lock when it's in the console of my car.

My epic 4g touch has been dying at random and the screen flickers before doing so. Many times it tells me theres at least 60% but it dies but usually its very random when it shuts off. I'm running android 4.2 and my galaxy s2 is fairly new. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?

I have no experience with that particular device, but any time there are actual non-binary hardware issues (screen flickering as opposed to, say, simple hard reboot) I get concerned that it's going to be a quagmire rather than a simple fix. Are you still under warranty? Unless others have had similar issues (which should be subject to a Google search) I would say a) replace the batter or b) contact the manufacturer. Sorry for the lack of insight.
By flickering do you mean getting a jagged black screen around the edges,a second before it dies? (I have this problem on my mango, still looking for the reason. )
Sent from my Xperia Mini Pro
Its just the whole screen flickering. My guess is that my battery calculation is off or something thinking there's more/less battery than what really is there.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the info, I think the battery is just messed up because the battery terminals are a little faded. I sure hope its not a hardware error in my phone because I don't have a warranty

Bro if you apply pressure at back yes it feels like something is creaking but i think it do not make a sound.
So its normal if you feel something creaking on applying pressure.
To check this i went to many showrooms and checked there on tab 2.everywhere was same
Your should never creak unless you are applying some serious force to the back. And even if you did try to bend your tab it would break before it could even creak.

Whenever I hold my phone upright and tap toward the top of the screen (even very lightly), the phone makes a weird clicking sound coming from inside. It sounds to me like the small vibrating spinning part that makes the phone vibrate. I don't know if it's just my model of the device of if this is normal but it's very annoying and noticeable. Also, if I shake the phone even a little I can hear the clicky sound. Not sure if I should take it back and replace it but I wanted to see if anyone else had this problem first?
I have this. Just notice it now. Can hear it from shaking the top of the phone back and forth

Honestly guys, this sound has always been in HTC and Samsung devices that I've had, and to be honest I didn't hear it in my S4,ehich was Prolly the first device in a while where I wouldn't hear a rattle. Someone mentioned a long time ago that's its the part for the vibration/haptic but I don't see how that could be. But yes, I hear it too, and have no clue what the hell it is lol

Like I said, any time I even lightly tap the top area of the phone it makes that sound. I wouldn't mind personally if it's just when I shake the phone.
