hello, I dont know if anyone is experiencing the same problem as i do, but whenever i change the lockscreen wallpaper to something black or gray -- the left side of the screen gives out some specs of white. and its weird since its only shows in the lockscreen, the homescreen doesnt show any of the white specs. im worried. is this a bug?
Yes, that really happens if you enable the ripple effect. I'm not sure if there's a fix for that already though.

Turn off auto-brightness, and power saving.
whats weird
thanks for the advice... i tryed but its not it.. i know what u mean were it can go from light to dark.. but this is a very quick flicker of the screen.
could this be kernel related or even hard ware... im gonna try stock kernel.. im using faux 009.. this didnt happen on the 003 kernel...
faux says not all chips are created equal...just a guess... id hate to return for a refurb phone.. when this is my only problem...
time will tell... i was just wondering if anyone gets this very quick flicker.. not a shift in brightness......

I rarely get them. Once in a while if I am switching from an apps to home screen via home button . I see the main apps on the home screen flicker very quickly once.
I think it started happening when I installed the wicked rom red. Before I was full stock . Matter of fact while typing this message I seen it flicker twice.

If you are in your 14 day period, I would exchange the phone.
This seems like a hardware issue, not a software one.
If the flicker continues then it will only get worse.
I recently cracked my screen just one hairline across the screen. I put my phone next to my friends s3 and not only does his screen look brighter but there is colors look better and clearer on his phone. My phone feels foggy almost. I'm getting it fixed by samsung but do u think the repair will fix this color issue I'm having? Never noticed and I'm kinda jealous of his device and the way things look. Any insight is appreciated.

Can you tell if you cracked just the glass or the touchscreen part, etc?
It might just be he has brightness or something turned up

It cant be his screen settings I tried now on mulitple s3s and my screen looks foggy and less bright.. my screen works fine but this color thing bothers me. I tried it on full brightness with bith devices.. does anyone know if a cracked screen repair from sammy would fix this?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
You sure you have checked in "brightness" AND "Screen mode" settings ?
But if Samsung are repairing it then why worry as you should get it back all sorted out.
This version of the s3 does not have screen mode settings.. ita forsure a problem with my screen.

Sometimes when i lock the screen to my phone the screen does not light up, the capacitive keys at the bottom light up but the screen does not. I am rooted on a stable cm10 build and have tried other ROMs also. Could not find anyone else with this issue. Thanks. Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

pretty much SOD > sleep of death. Toggling the power button can fix it. Generally a rough app force closing or bad sleep off settings. o=

Haha! that's what everyone said. Even the Sprint guys who fixed it were shocked..
Mine is not quite like that, my screen still works fine but if I lock my phone repeatedly it will eventually cycle to this odd issue to where they white keys light up but the screen does not. Once the issue tosses then I can hit the lock key again and the screen is fine..

Try messing around with notification panel settings. Try clearing cache.

The bug is still there, but there is workaround, at least until next restart of phone.
1. From home screen, Click settings -> more settings -> toggle NFC on.
2. Go back to home screen, scroll down the notification panel, the NFC icon should appear, but it is not working yet. Click the NFC icon to turn it off. The UI will hang and stop.
3. After the UI restarts itself, the NFC icon should work until you switch off the phone.
Enjoy for the time being until next firmware update.
I have tested this with two of these phones and it is confirmed there for sure. I live in Miami Florida there is a lot of Sun here so I have no problem testing this. Within any app if I am in the Sun and it is directly hitting my screen and my keyboard is popped up my screen flickers it's not a super bad Flicker it's light but it's definitely there looks like your screen is blinking really fast. I'm going to try on as many of these devices as I can but can anyone tell me if they are experiencing the same?

I definately recall seeing it. I know exactly what you are talking about. I don't see it anymore so either my kernel (ktoonsez) fixed it or it was a bloat app.
I can confirm the issue on my I9500. Its not only limited when under the sun, also happens when you turn the brightness level all the way down. I'm still on stock kernel, maybe custom kernel may solve the issue. No settings in stock has mitigated or fixed this issue for me.
The people who are seeing this, have you turned off "Adapt Display" ?
