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?

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.

Sounds like a hardware fault to me.
A friend had the same problem, it's a little triangle shape area like 4mnx4mn

Same problem here.
or... it's not really a problem for me, didnt notice it before i read this post.
Its already been noted magnetic fields interfere. Is it near the speaker per chance?

It's not a hardware fault, that's just how the spen work (the note one had a simular 'issue' too). If you go to settings and change the s pen settings from right handed to left handed it's the left corner that won't work.

Nope, when i change the setting, nothing change. Maybe it's the speeker, or the pen captor?

After hours of testin, it must be something interferencing with this corner.
When i push a little harder the stylus in this corner, Spen work but the cursor is shaky.
This would really irritate me - does it happen with every note? Or just some? And is it always the same size (4mm triangle)? And exactly where is it - is it right in the corner if the screen or somewhere nearer the middle?
If it does not happen on every note I'd be returning the phone for a new one, if it does happen on every note I'd be thinking very hard as to if it would irritate me too much.
Mine also does not respond, its where the head of the s-pen lies, so maybe there is no sensor in there.
I'm lucky enough for not having the issue.

he's right , here's a screenshot taken after trying to fill the area in with sketchbook mobile. https://www.dropbox.com/s/0h1jfkzhgy6zksh/notecorner.jpg most apps don't use that area though. ( sketchbook does )
I just checked, it works for me.

Hmmmm, seems to be only affecting some people from these replies - could it be ROM related (are you all running same ROM) or is it a true fault? If its just a ROM then there are no real concerns for me but if its hardware related........!! Would annoy the hell out of me - I love sketching on devices - I'd be returning it

Now try to fill it using a very thin pencil. Normally it's the hole right and bottom border that won't get colored (happens to me on my note 1 and 2). That bottom right corner just happens to be in the intersection of both lines which makes it a little harder to fill even with a large brush.

I tried scrolling down a page using air view and it works. Should I test something else?

So is this normal behavior? I'm looking to get a n2 this week and I want to be able to spot defects
I have a white International version, stock Rom. Airview work in this corner, but it's shaky an i have to aproche the Spen, more than in the other area of the screen.
super interesting thread would like to know if this is normal. with hover , the arrow disappears as well when it enters this "note 2 Bermuda triangle"
( tried with a really thin brush on sketchbook, same thing )
Got the note 2 a week ago and just noticed the s pen is not working on part of the screen while I was playing with it in s note. Very strange. Any thoughts?

part of the screen is lower right of screen, like a 3 mm triangle? then it's normal.
I searched online and the problem is identified. Its the magnitic flip case that distorted the area directly above it. Is this going to have a long term damage to the s pen function?

Thank you that I saw your post and isolated the problem. yes it was the magnetic buttons that was causing the screen to behave improperly at one particular location. I have removed the magnets and now its ok.
Thanks again !!

In regards to the feature (if thats what you want to call it) that as you pull the S Pen out of cradle the tablet vibrates and the screen comes on.
With the S-Pen in it's cradle the screen the tablet will virate and the screen will come on. Just carrying it (without hands or fingers anywhere near Pen) and alot of times it will do this on its own when the tablet is say, just sitting on the table by itself. Is there any way to turn this off? Or a way to make the screen ONLY come on when the power and/or home button is touched. I searched all over and can find no one mentioning this. It's driving me insane.
Any ideas.
Thanks

Worst case scenario: broken s-pen digitizer. Best case scenario: software bug.
Did it always behave this way? Have you tried using different s-pens?
No it was fine since 2 weeks back it started like this. I tried other s-pen its working perfect and this s pen in that cell...messes up that too. But if its broken how did it happen? My cell never fell...so as s pen.

I spilled coffee on my note 3 and the phone didn't seem to break, but I just noticed that my s pen doesn't work at all. Any ideas on how to trouble shoot this? It doesn't even recognize that I remove it from the phone.

Check if the nib of the pen (the small white part at the end) can be pushed inside. If it can't be pushed, pull it out gently. There should always be some play in the nib to allow for pressure variations. Had the same problem. Worked like a charm for me.
