Screen question - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Twice now iv noticed a green hue on my screen once I has to reboot and the latest went normal when auto dimming took place. Noticed this after mj5 update could that be the issue

I've had the same issues in the past as well. Pretty sure it's something with MJ5

No idea what causes it but I get it sometimes too. It happens on my phone once every 3 weeks or so..... it's strange.
Im on Perseus kernel.
thanks for replying. i am on stock kernal. is this relate to crt off animation?

To be honest I have absolutely no idea what it relates to. It happens so infrequently to me I haven't ever been bothered by it or tried to figure out what it was.

I get this as well, and I'm on completly stock and unrooted so I wouldn't worry about. I thought it was just because I used widget locker but obviously not.

Same here! This morning for the first time.
Completely stock phone, XELLA H3G. I bought it 2 months ago
Strange
It happened to me too for 3/4 times over last few months. My I9300 S3 is close to its 7th month. I can tell that thing had not happened until last few months. I have crt-off.
I used my i9305 for about 8 weeks and saw the blue (and sometimes green) screen sometimes for just a sec when i unlock the screen.
Unfortunately this handset died on monday afternoon. Hope this is only a bad coincidence.
Hi,
Don't worry about that....See a Blue screen can give a bad feeling (mainly to Windows user...)
But nothing to compare with BSOD (Blue Screen Of Death) you can get when Windows crash

Completely dead. No boot, no download mode, no recovery. Had to bring it to my service provider, but they change it without any problems. Hope I will get the new one back today.
Other two times today...first yesterday.
Hoping this will not be a new strange issue causing SoSD or similar!
Atm no other strange problems
I'm on XELLA (H3G)
Handset bought on Dec 21

In Standby, screen is on, but dark

Does anyone know why sometimes when I come back to my phone, the backlight is on, but the screen is dark;ie displaying black pixels and therefore draining my battery. I haven't isolated possible reasons, but missed calls might be one. Highly annoying.

Same problem, uninstalled "screen off and lock " end never get the problem again but I'm not sure that screen off was the problem.
Hm, I don't have that app installed. It may be popular notifications from what's app...
Sent from my C6603 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
Happened to me once as well because of Google Talk notification. Pretty sure that's a software bug that'll get resolved in 4.2
Mine does this too. Thought it was whilst charging but seems to be random.

Red light

I just recently updated to the cm 10.1.3 final build and I've noticed that there is a red light that always comes on between the earpiece and the front camera... Not sure what it is or why it seems to be on all the time. Rebooting the phone seems to fix it, but by the end of the day it is back on. Any thoughts?

That red light is the proximity sensor (well, half of it, the receptor is next to it). Not sure what's causing it to come on in your case - there was a version of Viber that switched it on constantly a few months ago, but that got fixed in a subsequent release.
Cheers,
Steve.

I figured it was the proximity sensor. Not sure what is activating it though. I don't have Viber FYI. Is there an app that could tell me which apps can control the proximity sensor?

Not VERY bad static, but I do occasionally get some at the beginning of a call. It goes away after 5-10 seconds usually.

Mines don't go away at all. What should I do about it? I can still hear the people I call but it's very annoying and the static is bad
Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk 4
I have slight static in the background of a call. I thought it was the earpiece, but speakerphone issues the same fault. I think it's just Verizon. The speakers on this phone are so accurate and awesome--I probably just never heard it on my GNexus before--even though it's there.

you're well within your 14 days. i'd say exchange it. if you're not sure, take it to a vzw store (not re-seller) for a second opinion.

agreed. if you aren't on the camera fix OTA that could be the issue as well. They fixed cal clarity in that update.

One handed operation

Anybody gotten this to work? I was following the on-screen instructions but nothing ever happened.

Tried it probably 20 times and never got a reaction.
I changed speeds, went right to center to right, just right to center etc. Guess it just doesn't like me lol

Very starnge. do you have multiwindow off when trying to use it?
Yeah, I've tried everything except switch back to stock launcher. I think that's where my problem lies. It doesn't play well with Google Now Launcher.
I'm using the stock launcher, tried with multi window on and off and still got nothing.

Now you got me wondering if mine works with stock. I'll try it later ...
I gave up, started getting irritated and didn't want to throw my brand new phone across the room over something petty lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
Just tried stock launcher and it does not work on my phone either. I noticed in running apps it continues to run even though its shut off. So I cleared app. Cashe and tried again. Still didn't work so I turned it of and stopped the app. Then turned it back on still don't work. Tried rebooting with on and still nothing.
Dont swipe to fast do it a bit slower it works everytime...,like you guys i had difficulties to get because i was swiping too fast...
Sent from my SM-G900W8 using Tapatalk
Just got it, it wasn't the speed but **rather the **short pause I had before going back to the right. Once I made a more smooth stroke it worked.

Not sure exactly what your saying. I did a factory reset and still can't get it to do anything.
