MY phone has done this twice now. The screen with flip itself and look like I'm looking at the phone in a mirror. The buttons, words, icons are all mirrored but I still have to tap in the normal spot to get them to work.
I have to pull the battery to get it fixed. Anyone else have this happen?

I've had it happen once as well, don't know what caused it.
Some rom devs have identified the issue is with the screen orientation transition effects.

This worked for me. No one has provided any feedback as to whether it working for them or not.

It is the ICS rotation animation causing it. Sometimes you can reproduce it if you lock the screen in landscape mode I believe

I've had this happen to me a couple of times.
I never had to pull the battery to fix it though... All I had to do was turn the phone to a different orientation, and then turn it back.
Whenever I had that issue I just tilted my phone sideways and it fixed it. Did you try putting it in landscape mode after the issue?

I tried everything, it would even rotate mirrored. If it happens again, I'll try stuff

When it happens to mine I just unlock it and turn it to the side then back up, goes back to normal after.
Originally I was only able to get out of it by pulling the battery. If you use a lock pattern it doesn't respond correctly to touch inputs.
I went to take a screen shot of the screen while it was upside down/mirrored, and when it shot it the screen went back to normal. I was able to unlock the phone. Seems like an easy enough workaround till the problem is resolved.
Anyone having screen flicker while phone is in use? Split second screen flickers?

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've noticed that when I am using the Internet app or Tapatalk I get these weird very faint lines. It's hard to describe but it's almost like the display is jumping in horizontal lines. I took a screen shot of a Page and when I review the screen shot that display glitch comes back. Maybe it just happens when text is involved. I don't know but as I type this I don't see any of those issues but when I am browsing the topics on Tapatalk I see the issue.
Any thoughts?

I had a pink line running up and down my screen on the right side which was awful on white screens. I noticed a lot of people have also been complaining of pink blotches or something of the sort.
I did a little something most commonly used on TV.
go to dialer and press
*#0*#
it'll take you to a test screen.
press on red, blue, green on the top and see which pixels need to be re learned.
keep the phone on each of the 3 color screens for a few minutes each.
it should start to fade the pink away
if it doesn't, repeat.
normally it's the red where the pixels are most noticeably out on.
give the process and repetition some time. it should seriously help get your pink screens right again!
my pink line is gone!

Ive got a pinkish hue across the bottom. and this doesnt appear to be working on cyanogenmod for me ("Connection problem or invalid MMI code")
Is there any difference to just leaving a full screen pure red, pure green, or pure blue (255,0,0 , 0,255,0 , 0,0,255) image on the screen, or does it do some fancier other things in the background?
Alternatively, is this hardware or software based fixing/learning? If I revert to stock, run this, then return to cyanogenmod will it still be fixed?

Just flash a Stock Based ROM (much easier then Odin) and then run the codes. Yes it should fix it when you flash back to CM hoping that this fix is a true fix. I am also guessing that the codes do a little more than just holding a colored image on the screen. Might be wrong on that but who knows.
It's proprietary Samsung service mode. Only works on touchwiz roms

Glad to hear you were able to fix the issue! I had a vertical pixel width line on the first gs4 I got before I exchanged it. Although I am pretty sure that mine was a hardware problem because it was always there, even when in the bootloader and startup animations.

yeah so was mine. this is a lot like the color code pixel reset on plasma and LCD TVs.
and yes it must be touchwiz because it's a code for that software. I am not sure if Cm has one yet

you need to run each color for a while. see which color had the dead pixels in it and run it for a hood bit

some pixels die or lose their appropriate color memory.
my issue was a thin pink line running down my screen.

pink pixel when you get a screen problem then you just think its display problem and change the display with same model so you can solve pink pixel.

This method takes a lot of time? . How long did it take you?
How long did it take to remove the line?

Hi guys,
Is this a common problem? I tested 2 Galaxy note 2 and found both of them with the same issues.
The top 1 cm of the screen
always fade! And there is a line between the top part and the bottom part.
Any one know anything about this issue? Is it under warranty?
Any help will be much appreciated.
I attached a screen shot but realised nothing will show, however you can use this screenshot to test your device.
