So... disappointed result...
I found my one has dead-pixel.
A green pixel on screen, when its background colour is 'black'
I need to ask my retailer for replace new one. Oh god...
How do I do?
(Sorry for title, It is 'STUCK Pixel' not 'dead pixel')
I dont know what the policy is in South Korea but in the UK it gets messy
Basically vendors say it is OK to have dead pixels as long as it does not exceed X amount - X being I think 5
As the unit is very new, the best solution in the UK would be to reject the item under distant selling regulations (which you get 7 days) and NOT reject on the fact it is faulty.
If you do faulty, it could get rejected as a claim as 1 DP is considered fine...also it could if they wanted to, get repaired and not replaced

Thanks. Actually, In Korea, dead-pixel is quite serious claim from users.
I am going to report this fault to retailer and send back it ASAP. I wish to get new device.
By the Way, If I replace new one, I am afraid I might wait another a month for TD2.
Oh my god...
Apologies if I get your location incorrect...I saw the flag being South Korea but then just noticed your location being Oxford - UK
Well again if UK... I know most vendors are still showing 10 odd in stock ... where is yours from?

MY retailer is Mobilephonedirect.
Today customer centre is closed so I send e-mail to them and looking forward to receiving reply.
By the way, If the suggest for fixing, is it reasonable idea? Well... I am not sure.
Sad to hear this dude...
There was a program, that tries to fix dead pixels.. I googled it and I think it was this one:

Thanks for your reply.
Firstly, I wait for retailer's reply and than will try use this program.
jscreenfix may work if it a stuck pixels (changes the RGB of each pixel fast to jog it to work) if not you can us UK long distance (Internet) selling legislation to return the device (change mind and dont want) in think 14 days or if bought on contract you still have the same protection
What are the first 3 letters of you serial number should determine the HTC country of manufacture

Firstly, I apology term of confusion.
It is 'stuck pixels' (My fault is 'a green' pixel on 'black' background).
By the way, I try run jscreenfix but the symptom is still going.
I am just looking for reply from retailer (Mobilephonesdirect).
Finally, My first 3digit of S/N is 'HT9'.
Looks like there is more then one thread on this topic.......See
HTC Builds most handsets in Taiwan (SN starts HT) or china the Taiwan models are usually more refined in manufacture and component quality. with previous touch models "Touch" "Touch Dual" this was very clear when the handsets are placed together with the Chinese made having a very poor screen, HTC also has a habit of tighter quality control on its network commission handsets (Network branded usually better standard) because of higher costs for return passed on from service provider
How can you see a single pixel between 384000 (800x480) of them ??

Most Background colour of Touch Diamond2 is black and it is quite uncomfortable for me.

Many peaple can see a single dead/stuck pixel on a 1080P HDTV up to feet away. Mybe you should ceck your eyesight I would be pissed too if my phone had one (or more)
I guess you are unlucky if the retailer refuses to replace your phone . . . carriers would replace it on the spot for dead pixels, like with the Fuze.

Thanks for your reply.
Firstly, I have right to return until next Saturday so within a week I ask to retailer at the least to replace or fix LCD.
(The best solution is to replace new phone but it might be too hard)
I am afraid how do I do at tomorrow.
I think you should phone them and talk it over, it might be easier to get them to replace it over the phone.

Thanks. Already, I called to retailer but Customer Centre was closed. Instead of, I sent e-mail to them.
Firstly, I wait reply from them.
Oh.... It is so challenge for me.
I've got reply from retailer (Mobilephonesdirect) and they allow to return my TD2.
After inspection, they will send back it (or new one) to me.
I wish it should be new one.
Oh... My waiting is extended...
i have bought a phone from the internet, from a site jus like ebay, and in the description on the phone the seller says "excelent condition" "just like new"
first thing i noticed was a stuck pixel a red one in the middle of the screen, that pissed me off,
and the second one i have seen, should i better say felt, was no vibrations, could this be a bug of the sofware that this device is using ? it's using Gingerbread 2.3.2, is this a common bug in this firmware ? or is it just my "just like new" Smartphone ?
Send it back to the seller for a full refund
Yes i agree Gingerbread 2.3 has not been released to phones so its a hacked job .
Vibrations may be turned off in settings .
jje
If it was provided to you running Gingerbread, and they say it is "like new", then you my friend have been swindled.
Return it with prejudice.
the only thing is: i live in ROMANIA.. i will try to send it back .. hope it works !!
i ordered it on ebay!after ordering it i saw this in the description "The box is Re-Packaged by us after unlocking along with a high quality OEM battery and charger.
OEM Battery/Charger is a compatible Battery/Charger and NOT manufactured by Samsung".anyone bought it on ebay!did u get the same or should i cancel the order?
I ordered from ebay , i got the original samsung battery and charger. so check other sellers

Few things to consider (now and later):
- if the seller specified no returns, or specific conditions for returns, you'll be forced to respect those conditions, as per eBay rules.
- other people (including myself) are using OEM Battery/Chargers with no issues.
- if something is too good to be true (too cheap), it's probably not.
- you should have asked why the original charger/battery wasn't included; personally for me this indicates either a refurbished phone or an overworked phone, or that the owner was careless, or even worse, a stolen phone (but it depends on circumstances, ofc).
- if the item doesn't correspond to the description, you can open a dispute in eBay/PayPal
it is mentioned in the description that it is a brand new phone
can anyone confirm that there are no issues with the oem battery/charger?

As the man said
i am counting on it!if it is a matter of concern i will cancel the order and buy it from other seller!or else i will go on with it!
well i too have ordered from cell-force.in in ebay
maybe my shipment will come either today or tomorrow
will give my feedback here
PS: i asked the seller and he said he is providing original battery and charger, and he has good rating also
but keeping fingers crossed
i bought it from cart 2 india!i am cancelling it!they are not even providing the earphones!do not opt for cart 2 india!waste of money and time!cell forcein looked more promising!please post after you receive your phone!
I Have ordered around 6 Samsung focus from two different sellers.
Cell-force.in
Cart2india
The device and accessories offered by cellforce are genuine and original also y=the shipping time is minimum. wheres cart2india gives oem battery and charger also doest provide earphones also the shipping time takes around 10-15 days.
Returned the phone to the seller as i was not happy with the accessories. Got the refund
I will highly recommend cellforce for the genuine product he sells
i am also returning it!i ordered it on sep 27th!i did not receive it till now!i messaged him to cancel the order!so how many days did it take to get the refund?
Hi All,
DONT ORDER FROM CART2INDIA!!. The listing itself says Local (read FAKE).
I recd the Phone (its new!!!), was of old version software (OS.7008) (Hardware ver:1.4) made in Dec'10.
NO OEM SAMSUNG BATTERY..
NO USB DATA CABLE
NO HEADPHONE
SO NOW BUYING TIPS.
(i) Ask Vendor : NEW or REfurbished or Returned phone (These both appears NEW)
(ii) Ask Hardware version : 1.4 is new (1.3 is old)
(iii) OS can be updated... so really no issue.
(iv) Items bundled (AT&T bundles headphone, manual, data cable, oem charger and oem battery.
Google to find Refurbished....
Any questions..?? HAPPY TO HELP
Best pointer is check the box colour.
If it is AT&T white and orange box then you are safe.
But in Indian eBay,I have seen listings saying new box packed but box is white blue which indicates AT&T refurbished.
I will get my phone today from a seller cellphone.in. If the phone is hardware version 1.4.Can you upgrade to mango os?.and after mango upgrade do I have to unlock the phone?I am using Vodafone sim card in bombay
me and my friend got our phones on friday from cellforce
the box is some white/blue with samsung logo only. it has insets, data cable, charger head and earphones, all original, i bet, local make cannot be so good
phone is hardware 1.3, but no problem. works good. no sign of damage or anything
good phone
unlocked, and easily updated to mango by using Zune
i will recommend him
also, as far as the hardware version is concerned, i am not sure, but that may be any minor change
also, about new or refurbished, i don't know. i don't think we can do anything about this. i believe that Apple is also selling all the refurbished 3GS in India as new
and also, considering the price, it is way better than the cheapest windows phone (omnia W) available in India
so that's not a bad deal at all
and about warranty, just take care of your phones hardware for 1 year, as software is not a problem
its a good deal guys, go for it. you wont regret
I got my phone yesterday.It is V 1.4 firmware.zune found one update for thr phone.This update is for Feb.2011.Still no mango update for my phone
Hey Guys.,
Remember Hardware version 1.3 is very old. Ver 1.4 is new one and Probably Updated memory configuration. Ver.1.3 was stopped in OCT'10 itself. SO you have got a OLD stock or REFURBISHED or RETURNED phone
Point.2 . MANGO update is under testing for ver.1.4. So ver1.4 users have to WAIT.. Ver.1.3 users can easily update to Mango. Use Zune and google "mango update for focus".
Point.3: Dont Update the software once you have gotten the phone. First UNLOCK the Software using ChevronWP7 and unlock the software first. Some users got locked after updating the OS version, but some are lucky..
Point.4: AT&T reurbished Phones (Ver.14) are good and same as NEW Ones! So dont worry abt refurbishment. Manufacturer refurbished phones are Value For Money!!! On the box AT&T logo in Blue and white box with NO Samsung Logo means ""REFURBISHED". I got a refurbished phone, ALL NEW, but it got "HEATED" up upon continual talk time... say if you speak for 15 minutes continually, it will Turn inot Iron BOX. And each phone will behave on its own, due to various issues with individual phones!!!!!!!!
Enough???

Your point being?
1. I'd like to see some proof of hw revision 1.3 stopped in Oct 2010. Afaik, first 1.4 revisions were spotted around March. Even assuming the 1.3 hw revision was stopped from production, assuming *every* 1.3 Focus has been sold, is far fetched. Also, from what I've been reading, people got hw v1.3 as refurbished as well, which also makes sense in the context of unwanted returns.
2. That's unfortunate at best.
3. This goes for all Focuses, regardless of revisions/version etc
4. Refurbished is NOT new.
Also, there are no "issues with individual phones". "Different issues with each phone", yes, possible.
Heating after 15 min talking is definitely abnormal. I've been on conversations for 25 minutes and the phone got warmer, but not hot.
Also, talking is similar to using data connection (3G or WiFi) as voice is still data. I've been using WiFi for hours without getting hot. Warm yes, hot no.
i got my phone 2 days back!its 1.4v!i updated it to mango yesterday night!
hi bhasker
My phone version(firmware) is also 1.4,I can not get mango update(officially or forced) as of today.Are there any major changes(besides custom ringer tones and cut/paste).Some say focus is slow for mango(mutitasking)
hi my friends!
i found a mainboard replacement for my GT-N7000...
my phone is white, the replacement phone is black.
i can use everything from the black one, both are 16Gb edition, both GT-N7000 model...
my question is: is there any chance that the mainboard from the replacement phone not to work into my own?
help me!
If your pretty much sure 100% that the replacement phone (which is black) is for the international unlock N7000 one.. then I'm pretty much sure also that the motherboard of that will and is 100% compatible with your white Gnote.
Aesthetically. the only diff between your white one and the replacement one is the colors of their casing... but other than that... I'm sure internally all are one and the same
the replacemetnt phone which is black has the screen broken, but if you call it it rings, but no can answer or anything, as the screen is broken.
is a GT-N7000 unlocked phone... my fear is that chance of incompatibility of that mainboard on my phone (which all is good except the mainboard...)
if the only problem on the black replacement one is the broken screen itself... then I'd say the motherboard of that is really compatible with your white Note.
By the way, where are you buying the replacement? if it's on Ebay,just a word of caution... don't rely too much on what the seller has to say... who knows.. some says that it's only the screen itself that is broken... but when you finally receive that unit... there might be something more to it that is broken.. you'll never know...
just a piece of advice....
no, not ebay...
just a guy has it and i found it on one of locally forums.
i see it and tested personally the black Note (replacement) and beside the broken screen, i was able to call the phone and it rings, vibrates, but i can't do nothing because of the broken screen.

then u should change the screen. otherwise with "cannot do anything" on your notes is equal to not owning notes.

then, if you trust your instincts then go for it.. Again let me reassure you... there's no difference between the white and the black N7000s... only the color of their casings.. other than that.. internally, they're all the same.
thank you, i really hope you are right...
maybe i will have my Note back...

Hi, after the March update, I found my Galaxy Note 9 screen turned yellow..
I turned off the screen, unlocked the screen and the screen back to normal..but the yellow screen will reappear...
Some people say it's a hardware problem and replace their LCD, but some people assume that Samsung technicians don't want to get dizzy and just say "you have to replace the LCD"
There is someone who brought this to the Samsung center, the technician just looked without checking further and said "the LCD has been broken" and he fixed it via safe mode (IDK the detail)
And some people solve this problem with FW flash via Odin..
I'm curious, do custom ROM users experience yellow screen too? is this really a hardware problem?
Thanks, and sorry for bad English

Those affected should. Samsung is greedy to force for hardware replacement instead of fixing their software. Samsung hardwares are expensive. In my country screen replacement for note 9 is about half of the second hand value of this phone.

Note 9 yellowish scree
hi I've faced the yellowish screen problem recently. My phone is 1 year and 7 months old. I visited samsung service center in my city in India. 1st they told me it was your fault that because of your mishandling this has happened and some brainless person told me to go for replacement which cost around 21000 rs(300$) in India. But then i asked them to find any dent, crack or even a scratch on body or glass if its mishandling. Then i showed them this article. https://www.sammobile.com/news/galaxy-note-9-march-2020-security-update-broken-screen/
Manager head technician accepted the fact that this wasn't my fault any kept phone with him. After 20-25 days now i have my phone with screen replaced without giving a single penny. Samsung is such greedy company that pushes such faulty updates and loot consumers like they haven't looted us enough with such heavy priced phones.

Which city ?.
Because in Bangalore they kept for my phone for a week and returned it without doing anything.
Same issue not a single scratch, dent or bump. Mint phone. But Audio Dead.
They told me to my face and in writing that no Note 9 users have reported any problems after the update.
I told them to visit XDA and their own company community pages but they ignored me.
They demanded that the only way they would help is if I paid 26500 to replace the board. ANd even that would take weeks. Due to present situation.
Another guy in another city was quoted 18K for his Note 9 main board. So it seems they can charge what they want.
There is no fixed rate. They cant even match the rates on their own web site.
Lets just say you got very lucky or you have good contacts.

I am in Surat. I didn't have any contacts in Samsung service center. I went there and requested to look upon my problem. 1st the illiterate girl at the desk ignored me but when the manager/chief engineer came to know about the problem he peacefully heard me. I used my "Being A Doctor trump card" to further make him believe that i was no joking and lying. And ultimately I was lucky. Though i was very much prepared to go in consumer court if that failed.
They just returned my phone and told me to come back when I was willing to pay 26500 for a new board.
I have started a new Face Book Page Called Samsung India worst company.

did not work! can you give more information !?
Looks weird but its working for me, tap to switch on always on display then open the phone with fingerprint or other methods, screen becomes normal !!
So I opted to fix my own phone.
WHat I found was that the over heating had cause some microscopic balls of lead to have melted during the over heating and these were all over the main board. I suspect some got under the Amplifer 98512 IC. So I purchased the part form china for 2$. Purchased a microscope and fix it myself.
I also cleaned the main board in ultrasonic machine to make sure all the small balls were dislodged. Its been over a week and my phone is working fine.
I suspect if you try all the software options and nothing works. Open the back cover and look for these tiny balls. If you see them clean the board and put it back it may start working. If it has shorted something off course you will see the damage. May times just a clean and re-seating the flex cable solves the problem.
I wonder if Samsung return your old board if they charge you for a new one.
Hey, download this app PWMfree by going to this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78953726&postcount=48 this will resolve your problem. Once downloaded scroll down then allow access, that's it. I hope this help.
Hi , i also have a screen problem with my Galaxy Note 9 Edge but i don't know if it is the same as the above problems. The problem started when i turned on the "always display on" option and set the clock to orange. I don't know if this is a coincidence but as soon as i turned that option 2/3s of my screen turned to orange as seen on the attached picture. I tried reverting the options but with no luck. Anyone have any idea what's going on? Did i messed some some settings? I have the latest update installed.
Finally yellow screen fixed in 13 July 2021 update
From what I have heard if you use the gesture navigations instead of the on-screen button navigation method. You should not experience the green screen issue.

If it's an LCD display they don't just turn yellow.
Flash it back to the firmware it was running on.
Rule #1 if the phone is running fast and stable, leave it be.
