Strange ghost-like overlay - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hello everybody,
I installed fresh AICP rom on my s3 ( 4g, I9305), and everything works just fine ( had to fiddle a bit with a modem firmware, but in the end everything run just fine...)
Until I noticed ( with my sharp eyes ) that there's an almost invisible overlay covering lower portion of the screen...
I checked all the settings more than once and couldn't find a reason...
Then I flashed two more different rom's ( lineage and RR), same thing... Full wipe, clean install, first boot.. and the ghost overlay was there from the beginning.
Then one more time flashing AICP ( I kinda like it the most...), took some photos, crank the levels in Photoshop and voila... No more no less it's a ghost keyboard, not possible to interact with it in any way... but present everywhere...
Anyone has a clue why this ghost keyboard is there, and how to remove it?

Ok, it looks like it took me a little bit of googling to learn new thing.
Screen burn-in...
I guess that's the reason. And since it's a "natural" kind of thing for (am)oled displays...
I'll leave the thread just in case someone knows how to magically fix this

You can try this little app here
Just run it a few hours. It doesn't fix the problem totally but it helped a lot in my I9300. Now I barely notice the burn-in that my phone has in the status bar.

Will try it tonight... Thanks for the heads up.

I'm also facing the same problem. I've heard that the keyboard can be cleaned to rectify this. Any suggestions how to do it or where to look?
I think if it is the case for the tilt ( see the second image of the link) it will be quite hard to clean it (it looks encapsulated)

probably I will try to order one for my Tilt?
Thanks - I heard it can be cleaned and then keyboard works like new
But I could not find on the internet ..
i think you'd either have to use compressed air or disassemble it using the guide and clean it up.

I have 2 keyboards on the way to replace on 2 of our tilts, plus the tool kit. I have downloaded the manual too.
can comebody tell me if this is Tilt At&T compartable kaypad , so to buy it?

No clue how to put that in. I ordered 2 with the sliders, BUT they both came in today and are both junk. The space key is falling out of one, and the other, the menu key is faling out.
These are the ones i ordered, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220425633486&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Widget issues, has this ever happened to you?

Has this ever happened to you? It was an accident the first time it happened but, I seem to be able to stack widgets. I start by long pressing on an empty spot on any page, just like you would normally do. Then (have no idea how it happened the first time) before the widget list loads if I quickly flip to the next page where that spot on the screen is already filled, pick my widget, when it loads up, it comes on top of the widget already there. Sometimes it will load behind the one that is there, as was the case the first time it happened, but the next time I rebooted it showed up on top of my calendar. If I move it off of the calendar I can't put it back on, it has to be deleted and stacked in the same manor.
I have to say I really like the feature/bug/whatever. It's a space saver, both widgets are still fully functional and I like the option of being able to save some screen space like in this instance. I can still see my calendar just fine to be honest I don't have a problem with it at all, hope it doesn't go away! I am not really a fan of spreading everything out over 6 or 7 or 12 pages *cough*iphone*cough* and that helps me be able to keep a much better (for me) 3 page set up.
I was mostly curious if anyone else knew about this, and/or maybe if your like me and maybe you'd like to save some real estate it could just be a handy tip!

Mini Bag report.
Flash is beautiful, but what would like to see in it what would have been easier and better:
1) Can you put a Wi - Fi from the latest ROM HTC Oboe?
2) Can you deliver and the Notification Manager from the latest ROM HTC Oboe?
3) Icon Facebook'a different from the other icons in the Sense
4) The date on the slider is not very well-looked.
5) Include in ROM fix HTCVolume, that would work with the HTC volume altered the upper bar.
6) In the Documents tab broken work left soft key and right soft key.
7) The background of Sens, who in all tabs, not looks. (It would be better if left it black, so would be at higher speeds.
Otherwise, everything is very cool!
Sorry for my bad English ...
I haven't been in the Rhodium Forums in quite a while now. I didn't realize there was a new chef in town. Welcome! That's quite a good looking ROM you have over there. Keep up the good work.

2:-when i charge the phone , the touch get complacently unusable and unstable , it just stops the touch , jumps around and so on , is that normal?
and sorry if i posted it in a wrong section its just i am new here
also sorry for the bad english
thanks for any help i get
and here is another clear picture of the first problem , as you can see , i was playing Fallout shelter for a long time , and when i quit , you can see the interface of the game still visible on the screen even though i quit the game.
oh well, nevermind the previous post, the phone died on me today, it just stuck at bootloop and cant enter recovery mode no matter what i try, trying the fridge trick to at least try to recover the data, otherwise i will get a new one (Maybe LG G5 but i wonder how is it).
thanks anyway.

Dorch - Dual Torch​Its been a while that some newer devices devices now have both Front and Back flash for capturing photos so there but be an app for toggling both of them as torch.​
Background:
I recently bought Moto Z Play that had both front and back flashlight but i couldn't find an App that can toggles both of them at same time in store (or maybe I am bad at searching), so I developed one.
Its just a clean simple app that serves the purpose of flashlight toggling and nothing else.​

This device has only a rear flash.
Yeah, useless for our device, thanks anyway.
I would like a notification flash

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I actually just flashed a zip in TWRP that enabled the notification LED by the speaker grill. Its pretty nifty to have a notify light again to blink when I have something to see. Really, I just wanted it to for charging purposes (I have some cables that are starting to go and I want to know if my phone stops charging without touching it, since that sometimes knocks it back into place temporarily), but the notify blinker is a happy side effect.
Got it from mods section on this page:

He's not an XDA guy, I keep saying his stuff should be hosted here too.
