[Q] End of page scrolling - blue streak - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

I just bought a samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition. This is my first experience with a tablet. While using the s-note app if i scroll to the end of page and continue to scroll I see a blue line at the edge. It appears like blue color bleeding on the screen from that edge. The same happens if hover s-pen close to any of the edges of the screen. I am wondering if this is normal or there is something wrong with my tablet. I have noticed this on a few other application as well but not for all the application. Is anyone else seeing the same thing?

I know I've seen this ever since my htc evo Days. I want to say it is a byproduct of the apple bounce back patient, kinda like the keyboard auto correct patient by Apple. I could be wrong, if I am someone please correct me.

You're right. Apple "patented" the screen bouncing back, so now we get the blue glow. Thank you apple!

I was worried something is wrong with the device. It is not a device issue then. Thank you for the clarification.

I received mine in the mail yesterday and wanted to give my mini review.

I received mine in the mail yesterday and wanted to give my mini review.
I currently have or had:
G1
G2
G2x
Sensation
Hercules
The reason I mention this is because this phone is not much nicer then the G2, G2x or the sensation but this phone is still solid.
I paid the outright price and coming from these phones I just cant see the difference for me to spend $560. This is just based on the feature and feel of the phone vs what I already own. If you were coming from a old phone by all means this is slightly better then the rest I mentioned but not $560 better.
Pros:
No pentile
No screen door effect (spaced pixels)
No Yellow Tint
No over colored greens and oranges
Fast web browser alive, I mean WOW! Flash sites run very well
NFC
Decent processor
Fastest download speed from Tmobile device yet
Very light
Nice feel in hand
Cons:
Defective screen (I had the pixelated, washed out /brushed steel stripes) the artifacts stay in the same place and is noticeable when I pull down the notification bar.
DPI is way to HIGH for such a resolution - Not bad but should be a option
Stutters 10% of the time
Car audio does not have the Voodoo punch from stock, not sure about later development or if a compatible chip is in there.
This phone did not blow me away but will offer it to my girlfriend over the sensation for the only reason being the GPS is terrible int he sensation and we use the navigation a lot and wanted to smash the sensation many times.
This phone is very close to being sent back but even if keeping this is being exchanged for a different screen.
Does any that bought from Tmobile have a perfect/good screen? If so please post pics.

This seems to be a pretty common, but then again we typically only hear from people who have this issue. I'm planning on heading back to the T-mobile store and compare my unit to their display models. Hopefully there will be a difference and convince an exchange.

This is my first Super AMOLED device so I'm not sure what to expect. I came from MyTouch4G before this and an SE x10i before that, and both fo them had LCD's iirc.
My friend has a Sprint GS2 and I got to compare them side by side. I noticed it's much less apparent on the Sprint one (Had to get up really close and carefully stare at it) so you almost cant tell, and when the brightness is up to about 30% it's just gone completely.
I tried to show him the lines I was talking about but he couldn't see them at all, and ended up calling me insane. So it's also the eye of the beholder.. so to speak. I don't have much evidence to go on other than what I'm seeing, and am fairly convinced it's hardware issue. I remember the MT4G had 2 different batch of screens where the viewing angles and vibrance was substantially different. This might be the same case, though I would expect more from "Super AMOLED Plus".

Based on the pictures someone posted, I find it unnerving that it's only one the right side of the screen.
It's almost as though it's hardware related in the sense that it has something to do with whatever is right beneath that part of the screen. Could it be heat related? The CPU being there? etc.
I don't remember seeing this on European GS2 when I played with it.
This is why even if the prime wasn't coming, I'd be hesitant to pick up the GS2 as the screen itself is a new line of manufacturing....and I'd rather let the first adopters deal with the imperfections while they work the kinks out in their manufacturing process.
I'm on my second SGS2 in two days. The first one was bad. Very bad. Defective screen: grey stripes, washed out colors. Extreme stuttering. Ok. Recieved my second one 3 hours ago. Great screen. Practically no stuttering.... until the first hard reboot. Bam! As bad as the first one except the screen. Laggy, choppy. Impossible to enjoy. Wtf????
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
I've noticed stuttering with the screen animations on. Once I turned them off, no problems. I've got the grey stripes, as well. If I keep my brightness around 50%, more or less, I don't really notice them. Debating on whether an exchange is in order.

just to be fair
Launcher Pro hasn't been performing well since Nexus S came out, and all the newer devices that came after it, like the original SGS2.
many other launchers are working way better/faster than Launcher Pro now
in other words Launcher Pro is kinda old school now, it needs to adapt to the new devices
Go Launcher EX. Same thing. Jumpy/choppy/laggy.

Launcher pro runs like crap on every phone.
That launcher has and will be the worst launcher I've ever tried to date. My gs2 flies with the stock launcher and launcher 7. I haven't tried adw as I kinda like touch wiz.

I posted this in the other vertical lines thread, but I'll post it here as well:
dksxmks said:
I just came back from the T-mobile store and I'm happy to say that the exchanged device is much better in terms of the vertical lines. I'm fairly convinced that it's the nature of these AMOLED displays, only some seem to be worse than others. My old device was at ~40% brightness and it's still pretty clearly visible. Now with this new one, I can go down to ~20% without even noticing it unless I reeeeaaaally stare into it.
Make sure you test it beforehand though. I checked 2 of their display models and they both had that problem. I lucked out with the new one they handed me at random.

I really wish someone could post and show the lines you guys are seeing. I dont' see this on my screen at all. The little stuttering is very very little and I only see it slightly when pinch zooming on the homescreen. The HTC phones do the same exact thing. Nothing I would return over.

Man the GS3 is tiny...

I had no idea how used to the big screen of the Note 2 I had become. I bought my wife the Galaxy S3 for Christmas and was amazed how tiny a 4.8" screen now looks after using the N2 for a month. I can't even imagine using that phone now, much less a miniature IPhone 5. Strange how the mind works.

I feel the same way. Went to install a transfer a couple of files to my girlfriend's S III last night and was surprised at the size difference, even though the Note II doesn't feel all that large to me (it fits in my hands pretty well and I find it much easier to type on).
Definitely agree with this. Went to do something with my old iphone the other day and felt like I was using some strange ancient device. Or maybe more akin to a child's plaything

Isnt it crazy? I went from the i1..3..3g..4..4s then S3 looked huge... to the note 2 that seemed gigundai and now the note 2 seems the norm. Same thing with tvs though... sucks to go backwards but what is worse is when you get use to each they seem the norm so why not jjst stay small?

Because staying small isn't practical for a lot of people, me included. When the iPhone first came out, it was the first mainstream device of its kind, and technology didn't support anything bigger. As time has gone on and technology has grown, we're making larger screens feasible. A big complaint of mine for a long time, was how small various device screens were. But, again, anything larger wasn't practical so you accepted it. I would never want to go back to 3.5" - 4.3". I would cry a million tears if that became the norm. I need the screen real estate for all the games, internet, and video I do on my phone.
This phone ruined every other phone out there for me lol
I went to an ATT store the other day and i couldnt believe how tiny every other phone is.
I agree with everyone. My old phone is a HTC HD2 and when I pick it up to look at it, it looks so tiny. I love the Note 2. I think people who bypass the Note because they see it and are like "that's way to big for a phone" just need to spend a few days or a week with it and I bet they won't go to back to a smaller phone. Also agree with the tv comment. I had a 32" and thought it was perfect size. Then I was looking for a new tv and thought I would get a little bit bigger tv. Was looking at the 52" tv thinking that is way to big. Guess what? Looks completely normal. And when I go to someone's house and am watching something their tv seems so small, even if its in the 40" range. Weird how our mind can change your way thinking and make you into a hypocrite.:laugh: Ex. Me saying I would never own or want a phone that big as I type this from a phone this big lol.
I think in the near future you will see people with a 7" phone. Don't know if it would go past that but who knows.
My entire gs2 is smaller than the screen alone on this thing. Awesome.
-Easier than it sounds, harder than it looks.-
Wait until next yr, if the rumors are true about the GN3 being 6.3". All of you will be saying the same about the GN2. Lol

Lol two years ago I had the OG Evo (4.3) went down to an (4.0) Cappy. Back in April bought the HOX (4.7). NOW!, every time I pick up either phone I feel like I'm going to drop them as if they're premature babies "not fully developed". I don't believe I'll ever own a phone les than5 inches again. I do feel that anything over 6 will be overkill!

I notice a small gap between the screen and bezel frame.

Hi guys,
so i used to have a White note 2 but traded it for the grey note 2.
This is a brand new phone and I am noticing a small gap between the screen and the bezel on top. (where the ear piece)
its basically if you look at the gap in certain lighting conditions, you can see some silver piece of the ear piece i guess. This is only really noticeable in direct light areas - so you cant see it all the time.

Regarding this ms delay, I notice you pressed the 'Back' button, and compared the 'timing' to that of the 'Home' button.
It is quite possible that this ms difference may be due to the fact that the 'Back' button is a capacitive button and the 'Home' button is a mechanical button.
The ms discrepancy in the contact being made may be due to the fact that the 'Home' button has to travel further than the 'Back' button to make the contact, which is appearing as a ms delay which you are experiencing.
This may or may not be a cause for what you are observing, and perhaps an Electrical Engineer may be of further assistance.
I am just referring to these 2 'buttons' that you were speaking about in your demonstration.
Sorry, I didn't 'watch' the whole video, but as I was typing this post I did 'listen' to to the entire video.

[Q] Verizon LG G3 Screen Sharpening issue

Hey there guys.
I picked my Verizion LG G3 a couple days ago. Overall I really like the phone. Love the camera, the design, screen size, ect.
There is however one thing that is driving me NUTS... The effing screen. The one main selling point of the phone seems to be its main downfall. Yes, the Quad HD resolution looks sharp sometimes. There is very aggressive screen sharpening going on with the display though. It is especially noticible in Black test with "off white" backgrounds. Its easy to notice in the Play Store looking at the text and then pulling down the notification shade slightly. That darkens the background a little and brings out the sharpening a whole lot.
I know this issue has been touched on before in other posts, but I've yet to find some particular information...
I've yet to see if anyone has noticed weather this is something affecting ALL G3 models... Because i have seen posts where people are claiming to not see this effect at all.. and then others that do. I'm curious if there is some correlation between the types of G3's that seem to be affected by this, or if it is just on all G3's and people that cant see it just have bad vision to begin with.
Also, has anyone been able to get any sort of response to LG about this yet? I've emailed them, live chatted, and phoned them with no luck. The live chat rep was the most useful and told me that he would try to get the information as far up the ladder as he could and would reach out to me when he hears back.
This is so frustrating to me. It's like buying a brand new Ferrari and having a big scratch on the door. The phone is so great, but this text sharpening is making me really dislike reading on the device, and just looking at the screen in general. I know others have already returned their devices because of this, but i'm really hoping LG would be able to come out with some sort of software update to be able to turn it off. Thats the shred of hope i'm holding on to at this point.
Does anyone have any further information about this yet?

PREACH! It only happens on some items. Its like things are compressed oddly. Anyone know if its software or a screen thing?
It has to be software. Just has to. But it's most noticible with black text on an "off white" background. The black letters have a white glow to them. Like I said above if you look at text in the play store and then start to pull down the notification shade slowly, you can really notice it then.

My play store looks atrocious!!!
For the more technologically sound people on here, what is it that's enabling the text sharpening? Is it kernel stuff or could it be fixed with an xposed module or just an app? In other words, why has no one addressed this yet? There's G3 Tweaks Box but nothing in there regarding the sharpening.
From the research I've been doing on the issue it appears it's kernel level stuff. I am by no means an expert on it. What pisses me off about this is why more people aren't complaining and getting LG to do something about it. At least respond to their customers about an issue with their product.
But if we can't get LG to acknowledge the problem or address it, then we need to start getting people to make some ROMS and address it in our own way.

Verizon VS985 here and this issue bugs the crap out of me. Some web-pages the entirety of the text is "sharpened" but I do agree, it mostly happens with black text on an off-white background.
Testing using the PlayStore and the Notification shade shows it off but not quite to the degree that I've seen on some pages.

@p2im0 yeah I've seen it even worse than that too. That just seemed to be an easy example to use. Ahhh LG. You ruined a great screen.

Let's hope it's not THAT long. I only have a 45 day return policy. Lol

Yeah. It's quite irritating. You gonna return it? Or just live with it?

I just wait for the community support, i think a modded kernel will fix that...
I have this phone for over 2 weeks now and i can barely notice this problem compared to the first time with the phone...

Yeah. I hear ya. Still bothers me and I've had it for about 4 days now. I wish I knew how to do that stuff with kernels and all that. I'd be working on a fix right this second.
