X1i. flash always on

Hi!
was working night shift. when I looked on the ground and noticed that the screen on my phone was on. so I graped it to turn it of, when I realiced that it wasn't the screen but the flash on the back next to the camera. its not as bright as when the flash is actually turned on in the camera menu. and the only way I found to turn it of is by pulling the battery out, anyone had/has a similar problem.
Michael

there was someone else who had a post about this before - search "light always on" or something like that but there was a recent post with someone who had the same problem

I did a search. not that i didn't do so before. the only thing that came up was for a different phone (wizard) not for Xperia. been looking around now for the last couple days and haven't been able to find anyone else with a similar problem. well at least on the internet.
any one else

Twas on page ten - but it looks like it never came to a conclusion... sorry dude

I wonder if he/she did ever fix it. well if I can't fix it soon I will have to take it back to the shop.
Edit: after posting I did another search and wolla. found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485701 . this might explain it a liitle bit. after reading does posts I think I better not wast my time. since it really looks like a hardware issue

well. send it off to three on monday. they called me back yesterday.
the LED is allways on due to the wiring on the main board being corroded. we have disconnected the wire. because the damage is from corrosion we can't fix it under warranty. we are sending it back to you today.
were did the corrosion come from. its never been anywere near water.

Sweat (perspiration lol)?

or maybe if you live near the ocean?
When lights are always on like that it does usually mean there was or is some trace of liquid on the circuits or on the led itself.
When you receive the phone, try disassemble it and clean the corroded circuit with alcohol and it should be good, if its only the short causing the led to always receive power.
That sucks though...

I was the first to post about this issue. 4 months on or so and I still have the same problem. The light has remained on all the time since then, although not as high intensity a when the flash is on. It's no big deal, you get used to it, like the led lights on the side of the phone. I'd also like to say this has not impacted on the flash whatsoever. It still works

You mean to say that it has been running non-stop(minus restarts) for 4 entire months???
thats good news for me to know the LED is so durable.
so you haven't tried disassembly and cleaning it yourself, the corrosion that is. I taken my x1 apart already and its not that hard, just have to be gentle.

Yep. Although remember the intensity is not that high as when you switch on the flash to take a pic. And actually even though the phone is off the led remains on. It's the battery you need to take out. So it's been on constantly for the past 4 months.

same problem

so did you ever solve this problem? i have the exact same issue with my xperia. Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] Samsung galaxy Note-Right hand corner of the screen is unresponsive.

Hi all.I bought my galaxy note almost 2 months back.This is my first android phone.I have used iPhone 4 before buying this beast.I must say its awesome.However lately i have started experiencing a little problem.I have noticed that at times while typing my note's screen( Right hand corner) became unresponsive. I had to press the screen a lot of times to actually type a single letter( it was the GO button actually.) After struggling with it for 5-6 minutes it started working fine.After a few days i experienced the same problem again.I took my handset to the service center but the screen was working fine then.
I face this problem sometimes . i noticed that after locking the screen and then unlocking it solves the problem for that moment.Is this a software problem or hardware.
I wasn't able to convince the service person that my device has the problem.How can i make him convince and get the handset replaced.
Any help would be Highly appreciated. (The problem area is actually the place on screen where application icon is situated.)

Is the problem there only when you charge it? Because, there are known issues with many smartphones where that is the case. If it is, then I am right there with you, and trying different chargers I heard will alleviate the issue.

No the problem is not when i charge the device.I face this problem very rarely but not when charging.I would like to mention that the charger provided with the device was very slightly bend on the charging end as if it was forcefully inserted in some device.Though it charges the device without any problem.

Sorry, don't know what else to say. Good luck though.

I have had the problem with the bottom right corner becoming unresponsive to screen taps .This usually happens when the phone is not in my hand but is lying on a soft surface such as a pillow. However the minute I pick it up in my hands, the problem goes away. Strange. I had my note replaced under warranty, only to find the problem re occur on the replacement phone after a few days.

I'm having the exact same problem and thinking of taking it back to the service point. However, could it be rom related?
I'm running LA4. GOing back to a backup of KK5 alleviates the problem.
Something else I've noticed is that when left on a surface the application
button rarely responds but as soon as I touch it on the sides it works and when Ialso plug the usb cable it also works flawlessly.

A friend of mine has the same issue, but it only occurs if the device is laying flat on a table which is odd, he plans to have yet another screen replacement but will probably wait a few months due to shoddy quality control.

I had this issue since the 1st day. It became worst during charging. Have tried every old and new rom with no luck. I though it was a screen issue where I even applied much pressure to the affected area hoping it would help but no luck.
But the issue went away after I flashed Abyss kernel 3.9 via cwm. Now the right bottom corner is as sensitive as the left bottom corner. You might wanna try a different kernel 1st before sending to the service center...

If I remember correctly one HTC phone had similar problem, screen was unresponsive when lying on table but as soon as u pick it up it worked fine. It had something to do with screen/digitizer not being grounded properly.

I got my handset replaced last Saturday, but i am facing the same problem with the new handset.Are you sure that by changing the kernel the problem will be solved.If yes then how can i change the kernel of the handset ?

Interesting, this is theme #1,500,000.

Definitely a hardware problem because when I took it to Samsung service centre, the first thing they did was to flash the phone firmware. Only when the problem persisted, a replacement was given.

shot in the dark here, do you have a case on your note? I was going nuts on the first few days with my note using a flip style case only to find the damn magnet was causing the touch response issues. Took the case off and haven't seen the problem since.

After further testing it seems in my case at least it was definitely a kernel issue with cf-root kernel la4. Replaced it with a different one and problem solved.

Same problem here, put it down and bottom right corner doesn't respond, pick it up, responds instantly like rest of screen. I thought I had some kind of insecure Note that needed to be held or something. Last few days it was really freakin me out to the point I was purposely putting it down and then pressing and pressing and pressing the back button...nothing...pick it up...works with one slight touch, I was like WTF? What the hell could cause that???
Somewhat relieved to see I'm not the only one with a clingy Note. I'm going to wait and hope ICS fixes the issue, if not I'll guess I'll have to learn how to flash.

Right-hand corner of death
Thank goodness I'm not the only one in the world with this problem.
I first observed the problem when i upgraded to LA1. I was loving the improved battery life like a puppy until i noticed the bottom right part of the touch screen was as dead when placed on a flat surface. It started working again after I had picked it up, making me wonder if it had a "Hey I'm being hand held" feature, but it would still trip out when i'd type an SMS or email.
Called the Samsung service center to ask about it. they said they've never heard of such a problem and that I should just bring the phone in for software downgrading since my Note was ok till I upgraded it. For them, it was a firmware problem so replacing it was not on their priority list.
I ended up downgrading myself to KJ3 (using odin) which works fine. Unfortunately, i no longer enjoy the improved battery life or one-handed keyboard config.
No choice now but wait for ICS and hope it works flawlessly.

This is definitely a problem with screen. I got mine replaced an hour ago and did the LCD test. The new one is working perfectly fine (with and without flip case).
Try the LCD test . *#0*#.If the test fails get the hand set replaced.

Outsyder,
What software version are you using?
Tried the screen test and mine works flawlessly on KJ3. Since I'm from southeast Asia, I don't have any other updates available except for LA1 which is buggy on my Note.

[Q] Touchscreen problem / ghost touch

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem with the Note? I've seen it reported for other phones but in the Note forum, most complaints about the screen are about colour reproduction. It is extremely frustrating and I was hoping someone had any idea? I had already done a factory reset, took it to the Carphone Warehouse (the authorized Samsung service center near where I live) and they reflashed it with a Polish firmware, and it still has the problem.
Video of problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAAWDwPVYmk
-------------Copy from subsequent post below-----------------
No problem. IIRC, *#0*# is the standard Samsung screen test code. (Personally I only tested this code on the Note and my SGS, which I used to film the video). I had also noticed that it usually happened after a bit of running (I ran an intensive flash video for 5-6 minutes). But then it started to happen just after I turned it on in the morning even when the phone was cold.
If this problem is really bothering you, I recommend you go straight to Samsung. The service I got here in the UK has been great so far. I sent it in and 2 days later, they told me they had replaced the screen and were testing it. If all goes well, I should have it back early next week. The phone number for the UK is 0330 7267864 if anyone is interested.

Having similar problem.
On mine, the issue is intermittent. Luckily I can now reproduce the problem by pressing the top side of the phone corner here and there and screen jitters/scrolls down/un responsive.

Same problem on mine...
I'm experiencing the same issue on mine as well, but only intermittently. I noticed it happens after I've been using the Note for a while and when it gets warm. I don't know if it's heat related. I still have to do more testing, but it seems like the problem immediately goes away when I plug it into the charger.
Thanks for posting the video, now I know there's a built in utility for testing the LCD

I wish I could send it back somewhere. I'm in the US, and the Note was a gift from a relative in the Philippines, who bought it from an importer. It looks like it was originally meant for Germany, so Samsung USA doesn't want to repair it, even when I offered to pay. Same response from Samsung UK.
The problem seems to be more apparent now with ICS (stock). Just like before, the problem crops up after some use when the phone and/or battery gets warm. Oddly enough, the problem immediately GOES AWAY as soon as I plug it into the charger.

temp fixes?
Anyone come up with a work around to this.
I made a portable charger at first, but now it dose it when its plugged too
maybe disable finger touches and just use the spen?

Blinking screen in dimmed mode

Hi !
Sometimes when I start my watch It starts to blink in dimmed mode. If I touch the screen it stops and I got standby screen but when it goes to dimmed mode it starts to blink again. It can do this for a while and then work great all day whiteout blinking. Some times it has started to blink after I take it of the charge dock. I tried to reset the watch and when I did that it worked for about a week but today it happened again. Did a new reset and removed some apps from it to see if that helps.
Anyone else with this problem ?

Are you using an original watch-face or some 3rd party solution ?
If it's behaving identical while using one of the pre-made faces, you might have a faulty unit.

I use 3 party watch face. But the strange thing is that my watch works over a week after reset. Maybe it's because I have been doing things with it to much, changing watch faces and so on. Now I have removed some watch face apps to see what happen. It has worked for a couple of days now.

Same for me
My watch R does the same and I'm using the original faces, not a 3rd party one. It started doing this random flashing after about 1 week of use. But I noticed the other night that the charger (the travel adapter that plugs into the wall) was making quite some noise... I'm suspecting it is defective, and that it could have induced the issues on the watch.
Anyhow, contacted LG and am sending the whole package for repair & check, will let you know if the issue disappears. Definitively not acceptable for me to have such a nice smartwatch but behaving like that!

Ok, just did a third reset on mine and removed every apps and I also reset android wear app and started over with a fresh start. Now I'm not using any 3 party apps. Will see if it works, if it doesn't I will also make a warranty claim.

omg...seem like i am not alone...
mine is more like steph case....it will flash most of the time when i took it out from charger when 100% charge....it only flash like 3/4 of the screen. the flash is like max brightness.
initially i thought it only happen when i didnt use the adapter come in the package. but when i now use the original adapter, it still happen.
nothing can be done to stop the flashing until i power off the the watch this is depressing. i bought my watch direct from korea. now if warranty purpose, i will need to return it back to seller in korea.

Yeah... seems like a common issue if you ask me, I really hope LG knows how to fix this! In my case it was the same: only the top half of the screen was flashing. The other day, even after 2 reboots it kept doing it, quite annoying. I really thought initially that it was related to the travel charger making this frizzle noise, but seeing both your similar experiences, it is probably not related.
Can't you claim the warranty in Singapore? Before you return yours, let's wait and see if they manage to fix mine! :fingers-crossed:

This morning when I took it from the charging it started to flash, continued to do so even after a restart but then I just left it flashing and after a while it had stopped and now it have worked all day so far. Will probably appear tomorrow again. Will do a warranty claim on mine now.

Where did you bought yours? (I see your nickname and signature so I suppose you are in sweden ) ... Mine is from net-on-net. I have no probems with mine, yet, but, just in case things will start to go wrong, I need to be prepared .

As with any new release, looks like there are some problem units in the wild. I returned my first unit which had putty gray white markings on the bezel, flaky bluetooth and unreliable accelerometer and got a new unit with bright white markings, solid bluetooth and reliable accelerometer. Just like my Surface Pro 3. Took 3 units before I got one without bugs.

[Q] Gyroscope not working.

I got my phone on Wednesday (4/8/15) and everything was perfect with the phone nut as of last night (4/9/15) noticed that camera was not rotating and it was kept on landscape, and also applications like youtube would not automatically rotate from portrait to landscape. I verified the screen rotation setting and it was on, did a factory reset and nothing. Called Samsung and no help there they don't know what the problem is. Went to an AT&T store and they could not find the root of the problem, so they are trying to get me a new phone. But while I wait I would like to see if there is a solution because if I can solve it (with help) before I get the new one I can cancel that order. Any one with same issue or knowledge of how to get it fix? please help

Same here
I had it rotate maybe once right when I got it and then it stopped and I have not been able to get the phone to rotate at all, photo, video, web browsing nothing. I am about to do a factory reset to pray and see if that clears it up.... if not its back to AT&T for me as well.
I installed a level app and it at least appears that the accelerometer is registering motion and position, but I am not sure if its reporting right (angles dont really look like the angle they should be.) So I could be faulty hardware/firmware.

it looks like the gyroscope maxes at 30 degree's when the phone is stood on end (which should be 90). Wonder if this is a software/firmware bug, and I am going to assume 30 degrees inst enough to cause the phone to rotate and change position.

I have the exact same issue. 64gb sapphire black edge.
By any chance do you have a wireless charger?

don't have a wireless charger yet. should be getting it next week. but tried the wireless changing at an AT&T store and it worked well. as of the screen issue have to wait 5 business days to get a new phone from the store since neither AT&T or Samsung can figure out the problem. and I am noticing more and more people with same issue here and other forums

I'm giving it a few days for some sort of solution to pop up. If nothing I'm jumping on the return wagon as well. :/

Had the same issue as well. I went to best buy to get a new phone.
I think it might have something to do with the fast charger as it might have fired the gyroscope, because my rotate worked fine till I took it off the wireless charge and plugged into the faster charger.
Best bet would be to call up Samsung and ask them if they there is a issue with this and hopefully they will send out an update (If possible) to fix the gyroscope.

Software issue
I just spoke on the phone with Samsung. This is a known issue and it is NOT a broken gyroscope. It is a software issue and they are working on a fix.

Samsung called too a few hours ago. They are checking on the issue and also there will be an update soon.

I got a verizon S6 edge and it also has the same issue.
I got the black one with 64 gigs and it has the same problem verizon gave me brand new phone as it is under 14 days replacement. I also found that if your mobile is not fast charging just push the usb cable gently into the charger. If you want to use slow charging you can pull it out slightly. There are two modes in the charger.
