I have bought an SM-T800 last November 2015 and today i discovered something unusual.
When i turned on the screen i've noticed some odd lines in my display. First i thought it was a burned in amoled display but this could not be the issue since i hadn't got it on for no more than 20 days and not with full brightness (about an hour a day).
When i googled SM-T800 disassembly there where those perfect illustrated hardware parts that matched the lines in the display.
Since it is not a burned in amoled display, is this a warranty issue?
I am seriously interested what to do next, because i am not accepting this problem with visible hardware parts in my display.
Can you get a pic, no idea how you can see the internals under 3 layers of screen.
From a photo its hard to see but i'll do my best to explain.
In the example photo u see the circuit just above the home button. Notice behind the circuit there is a salmon sort of colour substrate.

My tablet has that same form visible in the screen. Especially the 45 degree salmon colour steep edge at the right of the example photo. I looked just now again and it seems less visible but it's still there.
On the photo its hard too see but at the right side u see a line appear just 1/2 inch from the bezel all across the display.
I didn't had it charged so no heat could cause this issue, but what else?
Btw it's best visible on a dark grey background.
I could be the touchscreen matrix, I have seen it on other tablets but not on my T800.

This weekend while at the club I noticed the upper section of the screen was bleeding some light while taking a picture with black background.
It can be seen on a screenshot and with a black background. It only appears while on camera mode.
It is a little hard to see but zoom in or even easier open the link in a new window to see it bigger. (left side)

And here there is no bleeding. (link)
Can you guys check if you have the same issue or not?
Thanks
I see what you're talking about. I just opened the camera on mine and placed my hand over the lens so it went dark. There's a strip along that edge that's a different shade than the rest of the screen. I don't think it's a defect though, I think it's just the edge border of the view window. If you look to the right side, not all the way to the edge, but to the right of the viewing window and to the left of the preview pane, you can see there's a border there too. It doesn't look it in your screen shot, but on my phone with my hand in front of the lens, the two strips look like they are the same color.
It's not "bleeding" if it's not occurring in all apps.
It's probably just something someone overlooked.
Thanks for your replay, good to know I'm not the only one..

Does yours have the same thing?
So I just just got my second Galaxy Nexus as my work phone. I also have one for personal use. My wife has one also, plus I returned my personal Gnex twice for screen problems.
I'm bored and I figured I would post the differences between the 3 we have at home, and the 2 I returned.
All 5 phones have been perfectly identical in 4g and 3g connecting, hardware performance etc. The only thing that has been different between all 5 phones are the screens. None of the screens have been equal to any of the others. Some have banding, some have purplish grays, while one had an issue with max brightness. Out of the three we currently have now, I would say that only one is near perfect, while the other 2 are adequate enough to keep (one produces banding on grays, and the other has purple tones associated with grey colors).
Why are all the screens so different? is it amoled? Is it just the GNEX? I have had plenty of LED, LCD, and CRT's monitors in the past, and a few amoled screens, but I haven't experienced anything like this before. I'm currently sitting in front of three identical LED monitors and they all produce the same effect on the same settings.

Not sure if this in the right place (if not, mods please move), but I recently bought a T-Mobile variant Samsung Galaxy S III (T999L). Target was having a sale on their Brightspot Mobile devices, and $150 for a Galaxy S III was too good to pass up. I've had the phone for a week and a half, and it's a really nice device. The screen at any brightness is amazing. I've used a few AMOLED and SLCD screens over time, but my main device for the past year has been a Nexus 5. Nothing that I've owned compared to this AMOLED screen.
One thing that I've noticed, however, with the screen is that it has some inconsistent splotches on it. What are these splotches you may ask? They only are noticeable on very dark backgrounds with the very dimmest brightness setting. When viewing something dark in a dark room with auto-brightness turned on is how I first noticed it. There are some dark lines and spots on the screen.
Here is the screen with a black background in a dark room, on auto-brightness:

Look at all of those marks. They're hardly noticeable, but they're there. In fact, the only way I could pick them up on camera was to set my DSLR up on a tripod and shoot a 60-second exposure.
Anybody seen anything like this before? Should I be worried about the longevity of the screen? It's almost a non-issue for me, but I thought I'd bring it up. Thanks!

The screen has cracked for a very long time but still functional. Just now, it fell once again and then a white-ish thin line appeared at the very right corner, but I ignored it as it does not disturbed me. Few hours later, I think i put a little pressure into this pressure (But I'm pretty sure i am not, because my the only thing i did was to put it inside of my jeans pocket) and poof! Half of the screen cannot be seen clearly (refer picture). But still could function as in I could still use the touch screen mode at the affected area. Could this lcd screen problem be saved without replacing the lcd with a new one? Replacing it is my last resort if I could save it DIY. Help me, thanks!
Yeah, sure, via a software update. That'll also give you wireless charging, but only if you charge the phone inside the microwave.
You've cracked the screen! What sort of DIY fix you assume can exist, besides replacing it?
tired of cheap ebay screens, what replacement screen do yall recommend?
OnePlus RMA. It isn't overly expensive.
From memory, it was around £90 for me.
Hey guys, so I recently have a problem with my Mi Max 3 and that is there are vertical lines appearing on the screen. Long story short, it fell off my bed when I was sleeping. I found the phone beside the floor of my bed, the screen was facing the floor. Everything seems functional. But for some reason, when I press the “middle” of the screen or lock the screen (press the power button) the vertical lines almost disappear. Now I have researched the problem but I’m not sure. My question is, is something loose or broken? Or something else, comment down below, any kind of help is appreciated

Either the display cable popped off the board or the display ribbon tore off the display. One is fixable without parts the other needs a new LCD.
