My display has really been acting up as of late. I'll press home button to wake and sometimes the screen will just flash on and off a bunch of times before finally being usable. Other times when I press the home button to wake, I just get this yellow tint that bleeds onto the screen. Anyone else experience this?
Did you drop it? These phones have really sensitive displays. In my experience, next are purple splotches until it stops working.
Do you have a service center nearby?
Believe it or not, but no drops since release! (knock on wood)
It's also been in an OtterBox Defender case, just to be safe.
Good to hear, hope you figure it out. If you live near Samsung care Center, might be worth stopping by.
yes me today blink diferent color really im scare for this

Hey all, been having my touch pro for about a year and a half and it has been great so far. Up till today, when I was at work, i noticed this little blue dot on my screen, thought it was nothing and ignored it. The phone was working fine till about few minutes later, when I checked on it the screen just wouldn't respond. Note that everything else works, the buttons and keyboard work, the home clock keeps ticking, but yet the screen just would not do anything. However when the backlight dims (due to inactivity) and when i touch the screen, it goes back to full brightness (the usual) which means that it is still working. So what's going on and how would I go about fixing this?
It's possible something is pressing down on the screen continuously, do you have any snap on cases? Also, this blue dot, how big is it, and what is its shape? Is it a dead pixle? Perhaps the point of impact something hit the screen at to disable it's functionality. Have you tried a hard reset?
So an update to my situation. Can confirm that this is 100% not a software problem, but a hardware one. No cases on the phone, just a screen protector. The blue dot, more like blue patch has now become bigger. :S
When the screen is turned off, it looks like a patch of blue underneath the screen, and on a white background that patch is very white and bright.
I then removed my screen protector to see if it's just some ink stuck in there as I was getting quite desperate. The blue patch was still there, and is underneath the screen. I grabbed the screen protector and decided to use the sticky side of it to sort of remove the adhesive glue that was on the screen and voila, the blue patch dissapeared. And the screen was again useable.. But when I however press on the affected area, it will filled with the blue patch once again. I can redo this process a million time, but afterall, the phone is still not useable as a slight touch on the area and the screen will no be useable.
Any thoughts?
Sounds like the top layer of your screen is just worn out. The best fix is to replace it most likely. You could try using another screen protector or two to stiffen the top layer and see if that fixes it, but you'd probably lose sensitivity. That spot is caused because the film of oil between the top and bottom layer is non existant at that point, and both the top and bottom layers are literally stuck together. I believe the oil is suppose to prevent this.
I did a search for this issue and could not find anything...
About a couple months ago, the bottom right and bottom left hand corners of the screen will taking turns going dim as if the settings for the screen brightness were changed just for the bottom corners. I know of the light bleed issue, but apparently i'm having the opposite effect. At first, i thought maybe it was a software issue and have done a full wipe and flashed different roms and i'm still experiencing this issue since then. For ****s and giggles, I tapped on the corner of the screen and the dimness went away. The dimness comes back eventually. I am tapping on the corner of the screen about as hard as a light knock. If you knock it enough times, it will begin to flicker a little bit. Obviously, this is a hardware issue. My TF has not been dropped, damaged, liquid spilled on, etc. Was wondering if anyone has experienced this before, and if there is anything i can do short of doing a warranty return?
I have these problems with the screen, it suddenly appeared a blurry area in the center, which was appreciated more in the low power mode, progressed with a black line and I dont know why because I never wet the clock.
this is how a defective LCD unit looks like. You have a bunch of dead pixels there. This is happening with some screens if you put pressure on them, sometime by shock and some other times they just die. You need to seek a replacement because that problem will not go away.
I had a phone with exactly the same problem and the only cure was to replace the screen. In this case, you need to replace the watch.
I've had my phone for a few days now and noticed a clicking sound every time that I remove it from my case. After some investigation it seems to be due to something internally with an adhesive surface that isn't staying stuck. If I press moderately hard on the center of the left edge I can reproduce the click, and it feels like it gets "unstuck" after a few seconds. Does anyone else have this issue?
Same issue here
So far it just seems to be a minor annoyance. I can forgive it because this display is so much better than the previous Galaxy S phones that I've had. Almost all of them had grey blotches on the screen when viewed in full sunlight. No such problem on this phone.
I dropped my Galaxy J7 Pro. At first the screen started dying with a small black spot on the bottom left corner, then it spread nearly to the whole screen. Now when I press the Home button, all I see are flashes and sometimes I can barely see the time and battery info. There are no cracks or scratches on the screen. The touchscreen still works, it still registers touch inputs. I can still pick up when someone calls.
I'm going to get it fixed but I know almost nothing phone repair. So I thought I'd ask around so I don't get duped. What should a fix like this normally cost? Would it be an easy fix, like something they could do on the spot or would it take long? Thanks.
