Hello guys. My vibrator has suddenly stopped working. I can make it to work for a few seconds by tapping the edges of the phone. But the intensity is very less. My phone is just 2 months old so can I get a new motor under warranty.
I live in India and mine is a S3 version.
Thank you.

Hi, if you're using a Sense based rom, type this into the dialer
*#*#3424#*#* and try the test for the haptic feedback.
If it doesn't work, I would relock the bootloader and send it in to warranty

If you haven't dropped your phone and/or it doesn't have any signs of physical abuse, I believe you'll get it fixed under warranty...
Thanks for the replies. I haven't dropped my phone, there's not a scratch on the phone. I'm using the stock ROM and haven't unlocked the bootloader. Let's see. I'll go and an authorized SC and check.

When making a phone call on this phone the screen will become black ( assuming from the proximity sensors like normal ) but it won't get off the black screen unless i slide up the keyboard or reboot phone.
Also camera will randomly not open and just keep closing when i try to launch it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Hey tylermaciaszek, good to see you here with this phone, haha. What ROM are you running, have you rooted yet? I haven't experienced either of those bugs, or even heard of anyone having them I don't think. Is your phone brand new?
I'm not actually with the phone its my friend just trying to get him some help
Back story: had my touch 4g and it broke T-Mobile guy said he would give my friend mytouch 4g slide so he took it for the dual core and the first phone had the problem took it back now this is his 4th one with the same problem
He said he had a software update don't know if there's a software problem or not
Thanks for help!

The problem is not software, so the OTA update isn't his problem. You've got an unlucky friend, I guess. He's going to have to get an exchange.

I agree. Very strange he has had this problem, and more so that its multiple times.

I had the same problem. I hit the camera button and screen went black and also had it happen with the power button on the stock rom.
I pulled the battery and rebooted.
Haven't had that problem with any custom roms.

Hello,
my Backbutton activates itself. While I am watching Videos, or whatever I do it stops shining and I am out of every application I'm using. After about half a minute it's shining again and I can use it normally. It's like pushing the button multiple times. Does anyone has an idea how to fix it? I tried different roms but it looks like an hardware failure to me.

Happened to me as well it is an issue sometimes with samsung but covered under warranty bring it in to sprint
Hit the thanks button if i helped
Sending it back for support is not an option for me. I imported my device from the US to Germany. The support at Samsung Germany told me that they are not responsible for AMOLED devices.
My second problem ist that my IMEI is crashed since I flashed a rom where the dev made a little mistake. So Samsung won't give me any support.
I thought about changing the display but the price for a new one is about 190 Euro. Way too much... I can assemble and disassemble the device but I think that cleaning the device will not solve the problem.
Any suggestions?

It has nothing to do with the display though.
That's likely the part failing:

Verify that the one you currently have isn't simply not connected right.
Thank you. I will have a look if the part is not right connected.
Maybe I have to replace it. But in that case 25 Euro are much cheaper than 190.

This happened to me once. A day later my display completely died. I could turn on my phone, answer calls, etc the touchscreen worked, but I couldnt see anything. I had to get a new one..
I had this problem too.
I flashed a different radio, and boom!! issue resolved
I occasionally get this too. It only comes up when I'm using cm/cm based kernels though, very odd. I'm on matrix right now and it seems to Beowulf, anybody have some tips or suggestions?

I tried a different kernel and it looks like the problem is solved. I know that you should not count your chickens before they are hatched. But I really think that the kernel was the problem.
Anyway, I am just happy that my phone is working properly.
And now I am waiting for jellybean.

What kernel were you using?
It was not the Kernel!
Changing the radio solved the problem.

I don't see how the kernel would have anything to do with the backbutton. Although if it worked out then hey that's awesome. Amazing how much I have learned by reading the forums on this site.:victory:
Just clean off the the backbutton, and maybe it will stop or you have a software bug.
Hi guys, here is the story. I have a rooted Skyrocket running CM9. Yesterday morning, the screen just went black. Can't see a thing. I can still receive calls, the phone is functional. Went to the AT&T store, they called their warranty department, and it was decided I'd be sent a refurbished Skyrocket. I have to send my old one in. I'm worried about my warranty being voided since I am rooted. Is this a valid concern? Will AT&T being able to determine if I am rooted with the screen not being functional? Is there a program I can use on my computer to view my screen so I can unroot my phone? Thanks in advance for your help.

They just want their phone back. Plain and simple. It's not the firmware, is the hardware they want back.

Hate to say it but most likely a hardware issue.
You can RUU to confirm. If it's still occuring after RUU, it's definately the Digitizer failing. Thought I am already fairly certain that it is the digitizer failing.

I dont sure if it is a hardware issue. EVERYTHING is great when i didnt have this Problem. I think this is about touchscreen's firmware or RUU.

HIGHLY doubtfull.
Like I said, run an RUU for your carrier, if it works after then good. If not, it's hardware 100% sure.
An RUU will return ALL software to stock including any and all firmwares.
Go to the phone dialer then enter *#*#3424#*#* then MORE and line test with no time. Try to draw on the screen... If you do not get anything on that part the digi is damaged... This just happened to me. I'm not sure if I should order another screen because I already replaced my screen 2 months ago. I'm thinking to get a new phone. Hope this help!

Did you RUU back already? Mine was like that too... Working in the morning and it stopped in the afternoon. I had the phone in my pocket the whole day while I was doing the lawn... Maybe too much heat broke it. Try RUU back to check if that works. If not you can find the screen set (lcd and digitalizer) for 55$+
This is mine... What I do I have screen rotation enable and when I cannot tap on something I rotate the screen.
