Question regarding screen

Hello XDA!
My note 5's screen stopped functioning after it was dropped. I sent it to an authorised Samsung service centre.
Everything is fine, only that I'm observing a pink tint (usually over white) on the screen, when compared to another note 5. Is this normal? Should I raise a complaint regarding the same, or is there a workaround?

Bump!

Come on :/ someone?

No, it's not normal, and I'm fairly sure you realize that. You should see if they will "fix" it again (obviously they didn't fix it right the 1st time)
The pink tint is an older issue with many devices, haven't seen much about it with the Note 5, but it is certainly a defect in my book.

Faulty display. No root cause identified, just a bad panel.
Read rumors it could be the adhesive not curing properly.

I had that issue on like 5 samsung s6s. I kept returning then till i got an acceptable one. Still never got a perfect one.
I just got the note5 last week and the screen is perfect.
Ide send it back.

guys can anyone help ?
i dropped my note 5 and the display got cracked, gave the phone to the service center and they replaced the screen but the touch isn't working.
Everything is getting displayed but the touch isnt working. He told me that he replaced the screen twice but still the touch was not working, can anyone tell me what might be the issue?

How much did they charge you? And was it an authorised Samsung service centre?

Note 5 screen bleeding dead pixels after drop

i dropped my note 5 yesterday it was not a hard one. I dropped it from a table and since then left side of the screen is turning purple black, it is spreading and getting larger with time im attaching the pictures. samsung is asking for 150$ to replace the screen and they are also saying that there might be a chance 1% that the phone might turn out to be dead while servicing. its been 1month only since i bought it and about warranty nope as i bought it from abroad and samsung in my country doesnt accept international warranty. what should i do?

time to change the screen...

There would be no warranty anyways as you dropped it..

Unroot blinfolded? Note 5 ink covered entire screen.

Hey guys, so out of nowhere my Note 5 had a patch of ink on the screen that grew overnight, and now the entire screen is black, but the phone works normally it seems. My warranty is still good, so I need to send it to Samsung, but I worry that they notice I rooted it. Wat do?
Can I unroot blindfolded?

I'm pretty sure there are 2 kinds of warranty, software and hardware, just tell them you need a new screen and that's it, i might be wrong so search for the software and hardware warranty thing

This is why you shouldn't buy Samsung phones. I was overseas when this happened to me, and because I didn't buy it there - they said no..
Just replace the screen yourself. Samsung support is among the worst for warranties.

Yellow Screen Galaxy Note 9

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

have we made a petition?
Because it's not only Galaxy Note 9, but also Note 8, S7, S9..
Do all Samsung flagship problems with hardware?
But my friend's Galaxy Note FE and Note 8 with OneUI ver 1 is fine

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.

Have you tried wiping the Cache Partition in Recovery Mode?

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.

Question Screen of Death , realy?

Ok i am a bit confused. I have today went back to the store to return my Oneplus 9 PRO that i was not happy with due to the heating and batterit drain problems that me and many other have. Instead I ordered a Samsung galaxy S 21+ with the exynos version.
But I have read that it is exist a problem called the screen of death for this phones?? Is this for real a common problem at this day?? I mean should i be worried??? My friend have the same model and have never had any problem with it and he have owned it for a long time.

Your post is the first I've heard about such a thing....
So I'd be inclined to think no

It's been happening for a while. Put it this way, you never heard about it happening on the N10+ except maybe an isolated freak case. This has happen to a number of S21U owners.
Not sure if it's across all variants or is variant specific.
It requires a display replacement if it happens.

I had it on my snapdragon S21U and had the screen replaced by Samsung.

If it works...
Generally when you need to do hard reboots you have a hardware not firmware issue especially if it happens more then once even if the hard reboot temporarily "fixes" the problem.

Hi,
So this screen of death is a common problem still? And if you have it is the hardware that is somehow broken? And it doesn’t matter if it’s snapdragon or the other cpu?

Don't know... do some searches with XDA or Samsung forum in the search parameter.
It's not just one or two.
From what people who had them repaired said, it was hardware in their cases.

It happened to me. Screen suddenly won't turn on. I brought it to samsung center and they replaced my screen.

There are a bad display batch(es) out there... at least that will fix your problem!
Worst case is if it fails out of warranty.
Not good...

Well I don’t think it’s a common problem. Never heard of it. I can’t imagine a big company as Samsung continue shipping phones out if the knew it was a problem that occur.

When did it happend?

Whatapk said:
Why Samsung Screen Turns Black and Dead? The most common reason could be your device's crashed system. When your Samsung memory gets lower, or you meet a system update failure, the system would be crashed and stuck with a black screen on your Samsung Galaxy. You can also play games like Yareel 3D Mod APK on such mobile with ease. just enjoy the phone

They were already shipped.
This is more then an isolated failure...

The Red Screen of Death (RSoD) refers to the error message that appeared on some of the beta versions of Windows Vista as well as a few handhelds and video game consoles, such as the Playstation series.
