The buttons aren't on the screen. Fake.
This is old news. It's been proven to be fake. Not bad looking though

Not on xda but on several tech sites like android central and such. It's photoshopped.

i totally agree, its photoshop.
who is the idiot who could render such a beautiful device (ics keys as capacitive at bottom) yet the app drawer icon looks like poo? i JUST learned cs4 2 weeks ago and i coulda done better with the icon...
Ok let's just say it is fake... But what if Samsung decides to make the ics buttons into capacitive buttons and not built in to the screen like the nexus? From my understanding they always **** up Android to their liking so I wouldn't put it past them. I'm sure (to them) anything is better to differentiate them from the rest.

I'm not a big fan of the on screen buttons anyway so I wouldn't mind that.

Does the lack of resolution bother anyone else? Dont get me wrong, the GS phones have amazing screens and beautiful colors, and was happy to move to the E4GT from the Evo, but the jaggies are killing me!
I've viewed two other phones, and all three have been about the same. It is definitely something that most people wouldn't complain about but i know there's got to be others that share my disdain.
Edge of icons, subtle shading, and the very noticeable grid pattern on a mid-gray screen are what catch my eye.
This wasn't meant to be a rant, just wanted to see if anyone else notices what seems to have been corners cut by stretching this screen over the international version.
Comments, hate mail, patches/fixes are all welcome. lol

Changing the density doesn't fix it, may make it less apparent, but its still there.
Is there a technical reason the pixel grid is so noticeable?

I don't see any pixelation some people are complaining about. Most people zoom in to make images bigger on these phones anyways but I don't have to do that with this phone because of it's screen size.
Yesterday a teacher of mine took my phone and when I got home the screen started to fizzle. It has a blue-ish tint now and washed out colors.
What can be the problem & how can it be fixed w/o going to sprint?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Definitely a hardware issue. If you have TEP then it should be free to fix and 35 if not (bill the teacher lol). Take it to a sprint repair center.

The areas where I touch is regular, but the colors are all washed out or have a blue or yellow tint by default. My screen isn't cracked if you were thinking that.

You actually give the phone to the teacher? Wow, much has changed since I've gone to school.
This is why I don't trust people with $500 phones...
Your best bet is to go though Sprint, like others have said.

Are there any bubbles on the screen? I'm trying to figure out if ur teacher dropped the phone and didn't tell u, or if they got any liquid in the phone. Because that sounds like a screen bleeding problem.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Since I'm in a nearly all girls semi-strict high school we could get suspensed or kicked out for not obeying the teachers(men are treated in my school like a black man in the 40s no rights at all) . And I'm thinking the teacher put pressure on the screen when he took it away from my friend, I seen him put it in his pocket with other people phones. When I approached him about it he denied it, which I knew he would do.

There's no bubbles it's just the color is so off

ok...yes, the screen has a bleeding problem. it's from the inner part of the screen. he put to much pressure on it. it's like when you press your finger on a computer screen and you get that funny discolorization... thats what happened. can you see the normal stuff on the screen though? or is there to much color on it?
this is a slight hardware problem that is sometimes fixable.

Is there a way that a dev can produce a apk or zip that will allow the abilliity to change the colors of the back and setting buttons of the GS3? Not sure if this has been discussed before or even a thread for this topic.. Just wanted to be able to change the color and use something other than white.
It's hardware wise you can't do it unless you take the phone apart. If we were able to do it on the vibrant then we would already have the option on the siii

I used to think the same thing till my gf used my phone and asked how to go back lol. I have it on for 6 seconds now so she doesnt get confused. Samsung really did a good job hiding the buttons when its not lit.
But to the OP...ya cant do it unless you open it up and color it or put a colored film on top the LED.
Wait you trust your gf with your phone?? Lol

With 100% supervision duh lol. Luckily its just once in a great while when she's having trouble looking up stuff on her Blackberry lol.
I know this is almost virtually impossible, but is it all possible to get a keyboard case mod for this phone? I think it would be sick...not sure how it would work based on the lack of keyboards fitting the exact dimensions...but yeah any ideas? Just would be nice for school.
I doubt you could do it, just with the size alone, but i would suggest just a blue tooth keyboard. Mine works great actually :thumbup:

Don't know either...but what about combining a cheap case, a slide out with metal clicks and using this:
http://images.discountofficeitems.com/orig/d99/a7d/1755f22e06575d721ff5e8c5ae7a0fda49.jpg
Might experiment with it if someone wants to donate haha...might just buy the keyboard on ebay or something similar in size...will check back eventually.
Depending on the dimensions of that keyboard, it might not be a bad idea tho. Worth a shot I guess, so if you do it, post some pics! Wish I could make stuff like that haha. Anyway, good luck if you do it

Does anyone else's home button seem loose after using it for a while? Mine rattles slightly when touching it. I'm not sure if that's just the way it is or if it has come lose. I can't seem to find the way the home button is put together in the inside as there's not too many tear down pics on the net that even show it. Just debating if this will be an issue down the road and needs to be returned before my 14 days are up.
Thanks

Yes, I'm pretty anal about babying my phones. I'm not sure like I said if it should have a little rattle like that or if mine has a slight defect. I'm not wanting to exchange it, but, for what I paid for this phone I just don't want problems later on and have to deal with getting refurbs from assuron! That's why I was asking here to see if it's pretty much the norm. Thanks for the reply.

I bought mine around noon the day they came out, my button is still completely firm. Not sure how much relative abuse it has taken though. Seems pretty weird to me that it could be rattling, as it feels like it is a pretty solid fit. But maybe we will all be complaining about this soon enough.
