Samsung Galaxy S2 Light Bleed Effect Near Power Button

I've posted this on several forums, since I haven't seen anyone bring this issue up yet.
Basically, I've noticed on the Phone screen and on the Clock screen, there seems to be this "Light Bleeding" effect near the power button. I went back to the Sprint store and confirmed that it's an issue as their display device had the same problem, and a new device they opened had the same issue. I don't know if it's just a bad batch of phones, or if this is some sort of software issue that'll get addressed in an update.
Anyone notice this?

Erm, dude... This "bleeding" effect means there's a tab there. Just scroll your finger on the tab bar, and *BAM* a new one will appear

Yh lol took me a while to find that out as well. Was looking for the keypad for ages

i have light going true just by the home button on back button side. damn

If it truly was light bleed then a screenshot would not show it. As above, it means there's tabs to the right. Grab the tabs and scroll for more

Got the same answer in another forum. Thanks for the quick response. First time using Android coming from BB. I'm sure there will be more things come up that I won't know about.

I know you are a new user, so you didn't know this, but how come sprint staff didn't know this?

this is just a visual effect to signify off screen tabs and not a hardware/software error, should really edit your post to site you made a mistake and made a hasty thread, not to mention the dumb ass reps at Sprint, just shows resellers dont have a clue when it comes to what they are actually selling.

That was funny

OMG

I didn't say there was a light leak. I said there was an effect that looked as such. I went through the proper channels (Sprint Corporate Store > Searched Online) and finally I asked in the forum. If that, and asking questions shows stupidity, then your reply can only assert even more ignorance. If you really have nothing to say that deals with the topic, then you'd be better off not replying at all.
Thanks.

Lmao that brilliant. Haha just noticed mines an arrow i want it to bleed too

I actually thought there was some fault with my phone in the start as well, but then i found out i could scroll that bar Also since it only showed in a few apps i came to the conclusion, after a bit, that it's there to tell me i can scroll.

Yeah, I had a couple of my friends with iPhones tell me the screen was really nice and clear. Its such a nice sized phone for me too.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?

I always get asked, why is the screen so big lol

That's funny when women ask me why its so big they've never referred to the phone.

Any good toddler learning apps on android?

I been searching for.some time now for any educational apps for my 18 months son with little luck.
Most apps are geared towards older children,not to mention not too many have child lock on them to prevent children from hitting capacitive buttons.Seem like all good children's apps or on ipad/iPhone and I won't to avoid this option if I can help it.
Anyone know of any good apps?
Here are few apps that I have so far that are usefull and not too complicated for children that are 1-3 years old.
1 Toddle Animal Numbers (Probably the best one,its educational and its free)
2 Undersea Adventure for Toddler (Not really educational but a fun and simple game,and its free)
3 Kids Doodle Paint (Best thing about this is that it has child's lock built in,so you can go to sleep while they draw and not have to worry about them turning it off,this one is free too)
And that's about it,yeah I know that's a damn shame.Rest that I tried is to complex.

The sprout app is a good app i use

They can take your iPad, S3 or whatever you have before you blink. So its better find them with the phone in theirs hands than see your gadgets on the toilet or trash can because they got bored.

If I had kids I would. Getting them a grasp of new things at an early age is important and most useful for the future. Smartphones are only materialistic items so I wouldn't care really unless they're looking at things they aren't supposed too.

Toddler Lock

When my daughter was 18 months old she liked learning animal sounds, She particularly liked the cat on this one Toddler Animal Sounds by Bluphant Games, They also do a paid for version which has a child lock built in it.

[Discussion]Apples New Claims

So, I don't know if anyone has read the new claims that crapple seems to be bringing to court but here is a link to the post.
http://phandroid.com/2012/11/06/app...01/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
Although here is some what of a break down of the contents.
It seems as though Apple has gone some crazy insane on crack or something because now they want to add 17 devices because they're all compatible with a stylus in some way. Now how the hell is that possible? None of Apple's products use a stylus, that I'm aware of anyway. At least they don't ship with one. Also, they are going after the GNex now, because hmmmm....It's running Jelly Bean?! That doesn't make any damn sense what so ever. So I though I would just bring this up for some discussion because I don' have the slightest idea how they can do this?

I always read about apple trying find something ***** about android / Samsung software and products. It seems like they just want own the market, but that just it not everyone cares for them. I see how their product is their own. But lot of it seems picky

My mom for some reason got an iPhone 5, I told here it was a piece of worthless crap, and she didn't listen. Needless to say 2 weeks later she is taking it back I convinced her to get a Note 2!
But along the lines of the whole patent thing, they say there going after the GNex because it has Jelly Bean, BUT all other JB devices are fine!? Makes NO damn sense!

Ya I seen apple attack Samsung for a lot of things. Last couple of years, last time I read anything was that apple claim Samsung copy their design.. Silly power hungry company's

I have a small feeling they are attacking the GNex because it is ALWAYS updated. Google keeps the GNex on top of it. Apple probably views it as a threat because while we are here using the GNex for quite awhile (since we don't get bored with it), Apple has to release an entire new product to keep the users entertained.

Yep, I'm sure I could find some of these apps to pirate, but they are more than reasonably priced, and I am very hopeful that money truly does go where it belongs (to the bright minds that make them). Especially after taking an intro college course to programming and finding out that I have no idea how complex these programs really get. The best backup app is less than $10, certainly don't get that on windows.

There is a difference between silently downloading a paid app for free and bragging about it to the world like you are some badass that knows how to use Google or torrents or whatever.
For the record, I have downloaded pirated apps but have replaced all of them with the paid parts from the store.

I usually only download a pirated app to try it out if there is no free version. But sometimes I can't find the latest version and give up. If the apps worth the money/ I wanna support the dev I have no problem paying.
I do enjoy my hassle free updates that's for sure

Whoa. No one said I was bragging about that lol. I was simply stating that a large percentage of people have taken part in it and I find it hard to believe when someone says that they have NEVER done so. Taking people's hard work and not paying a dime for it is a shame and if I was a developer I'd be very angered with piracy. Look at the Dead Trigger devs. Those guys are pissed beyond belief and I don't blame them. I pay for my apps now, but back when I was naive and ignorant I took my part in piracy too. Don't twist my words around dude lol I do not condone piracy especially since apps are dirt cheap.
Except that launcher that cost about $20. That's just insane lol
