Hello.
I have the galaxy about ten days. The first day I put the milestone 4, and from that day I have this fantastic rom.
I see only two faults that happen.
There are times I have found the phone with the flash on, and the only way to stop it is restarting the phone.
The other fault is that sometimes when loading the phone, the screen stays on half brightness. As if he had fallen almost to the minimum brightness and the screen on while charging.
What can be?
Have never had this issue with the stock ROM...

Twice in the last couple of weeks I have had the screen flicker when I turn it on, turning it off then back on again has sorted it out both times.
I am hoping it is either down to some CM autobrightness thing, or under/overclocking...or both.
Unless anyone thinks this is the start of my screen dying?
Any input would be great
what do you mean by flicker? a slight flicker of the backlight? and by slight, i mean realllyyy slight
Nah its a full on flicker as in you can't use the phone like it.
I know when the forums started some people, like 2, were saying when they set their brightness setting to the lowest setting it would flicker. I suppose they returned it.
my brothers phone is doing that right now
I've had mine flicker about 5 times in the last four days. The screen semi locks and jumps up and down a little in a juddery way. When i try to scroll it works hap hazardly. Turning the screen off and on sorts it out. Not sure why it does this but it only started at the start of this week.

Had this happen to me on a reboot today right as the cm logo was fixing to come up. It was only for a split second, like scribbled green flicker. It was after I updated to 6.1.1

Mine does it all the time when the screen auto dims.
That was right out of the box stock.
ok good to know I am not the only one, I will keep an eye on it but I do think it might be to do with autobrightness
Got a screen protector on? Maybe the thickness/quality of screen protector could be an factor?

Do the options in Cyanogen Settings,.. UI,.. Auto Backlight,.. Filter thing not sort anything for you?

I had the same thing happen and I just returned it from walmart and got a new one.
I can confirm that some phones do have a screen issue where the backlight flickers at certain brightnesses. Mine does it when at lower ones. Stock rom, etc, doesn't matter.
I also have battery issues (45 mins with screen on at 20% brightness will kill the battery).
I am having mine replaced today.
Replaced my phone, no more flicker, and it seems like the battery lasts twice as long now. Very happy so far
When i got home, i went to my room as usually and put the phone on my desk. It was with the screen on because i was using it and then instead of putting him on the desk i let him fall from a height of about 2/3 cm on top of my wallet (nothing dangerous), and then i watched the screen begins to fade slowly and then the phone restarted.
I was like wtf? And after that, i did it again and the same thing happened.
Arc S.
Put paper between battery and battery cover and try it again, that should fix it.
I had the same thing with screen going off from left to right on 2.3.3 .146 firmware but exactly after 90h uptime. Not caused by dropping it.

That's how the phone reacts when it can't handle undervolt or/and overclock. Same as the WLOD (White Led Of Death) situation with the X10.
So, are you on custom kernel?

Well, mine had it with stock kernel.

I don't think that's normal.
I have noticed that while my note 2 is charging then the brightness of the Red LED keeps changing from low to high at very irregular and unexplained intervals. When I spoke to Samsung Customer Service in Hongkong then they also said that it shouldnt happen and I need to brign the handset to the service centre.
Has anybody else experienced similar situation ?
I have noticed it sometimes happens when I am changing the light conditions in the room by switching off and on the room light but that also not always.
Please help as this is very new phone to me .
It has been said that the brightness of the LED changes according to the ambient light source. If you're in a bright room, the LED will be bright and in a dark room LED will be dim.
And yes, mine acts the same way as yours.

Thanks for your reply. Where has it been mentioned ? Why are Samsung engineers telling me that it's not a normal behaviour ?
Mine does the same thing. Was wondering myself if it is designed to do this or an 'issue'...
Same here..
Yes this is the new Jellybean 4.1 feature
Yes!!
It happens with my Galaxy S3 as well after updating to latest Jellybean 4.1, Actually it is Jellybean feature. nothing wrong with your charger or your device. I have checked practically. (Design for humans, Inspired by nature concept.)
Same here as well, nothing worry about I guess
Different model as it happened to my S3 but I guess it's kinda related, the red LED was going from bright to dim when charging. Plus it was in a dark room, so I don't think it's got anything to do with the ambient sensor or anything. Happened for about 2-3 days and then it died. Tried to switched it on, took out the battery and put it back in again, no luck. Unfortunately I never got to know what was the problem as I got pick-pocketed while on holiday and never got to sent it in to a Samsung Service Center :crying:
Went out and bought a new Note 2 though, so silver lining and all that...
Same here
Same here...I can almost say that when led is brighter it charges faster

i do have a strange dotted line at the bottom of my screen, which seems to get larger slowly.
The dotted line is shown when the device is turned on/off.
It's not in the glass, but below the glass.
I wonder if anyone has seen this before.
i tried to make an image of it.

I have it too, not sure what caused it though!
No issue here.
The touchscreen is lifting from the tft, to which it's glued, causing air bubbles in the glue, IMO.
Me too although it doesn't bother me since it doesn't do anything to the viewing experience.

All, thank you for your replies.
I contacted Samsung support, and they informed me that it was no known issue on their devices.
If i want to have it repaired; i could sent it to Dynafix who does the repairs in my area, and they will check if it's a fabrication fault or an user fault.
I have sent the picuture to dynafix to see if they could say me something about it, though i am not sure if they will do this.
I will keep you updated.
Ralph
Ouch, dynafix..... You usually get your device back in a condition worse than when it was when sent in.
Verstuurd vanaf mijn HTC One met Tapatalk
Me too
I also have those at various points along the bottom. They don't bother me enough to risk sending the tablet in for service.

Maybe answer is that; however,the seller said that these dots are originated from the people that scratch or something when i see these dots on the Screen of tablets at showroom of Samsung. But i think there is a problem. After a while i think all note 2014 will be like that. I examined all of them in different stores. Guess what. All of them has that issue.

I think you should bring your tablets to be fixed.
Also , i have a question for everyone who has that issue, are your galaxy notes 10.1 black or white ? I saw this issue only on black ones' screens. Are you using your tablets in fully brightness? Because i realized that it begins warming rapidly and more at bottom of the screen which is so close to the dotted place.

Is your tablet black or white? Do you use it when it is charged, frequently? Almost how long have you been using your tablet?

Brightness setting is in the middle. Yes I use it alot everyday for work. The screen is mostly always on and I charge it mid day in the office and still use it while charging. Sometimes the screen gets warm when being used and charged at the same time. Been using this tablet since November

Tnx for your replies,
I bought it in january. no dots observed yet. I also have black model. I dont use in charge. I use it portable way when it is not charging. I am so angry with samsung because of that issue. They had made really big mistake and they dont accept their faulty. They even dont try to fix this issue for next generations.
At first I was bothered by it.. but now not so much. Good thing the dots are on the bottom of the screen and you wont notice it when using the tablet. Yes still samsung should fix this issue

Mine is black.
I have used it while it was charging but not very often.
I purchased it new about 7 weeks ago.
I had the exact same issue with my first note I bought in November. Ended up returning it to the retailer about 6 weeks into use and buying a new one I've had for about 6 weeks so far as well. No issue on the 2nd one as far as I can tell right now but this seems like another common problem.
If these bubbles/dots are caused by the reasons i mentioned earlier, they align with the colored rim of the touchscreen, because the color layer increases thickness of the glass by some nanometers. Going towards the center of the screen, the gap narrows because of adhesive force bending the glass. This should prevent the bubbles/dots from wandering inwards. Otherwise there's a huge issue with the device, though mine is (still) fine.
I noticed these dots on my white note after I got it back from battery repair. Not sure if it was there but I have 3 clusters of bubbles now

since yesterday i've this strange line as well. It came out of nowhere. After reading this tread @yararli could be right about something. Normally I use my screen about 25% brightness. Yesterday I watched a episode at almost 100% brightness. So there could be a causality between the brightness en warming-up which result in this strange line. My tablet is black bought it around december.
Is there any news about returns? Will there repair this problem or give a new tablet?
I just washed my watch with tap water to clean it up. but after i dried it up, the watch keeps rebooting every few minutes and becomes quite warm.
I even restored it back to lollipop but same thing happens. also uninstalled all 3rd party apps from my phone.
did washing it cause the problem? i read here somewhere that they even dive their watch on a swimming pool with no problems.
please help me troubleshoot this. I won't be able to send this to a service center since I work in a remote location. :crying::crying:

i don't know if it helps but I got mine back to normal again.
first, I just let it sit in the sun for about 30 minutes with its face down. do not put the lcd up facing the sun.
the watch will heat up obviously so let it cool down for a while.
after that, my watch started to last longer.
