2nd thread, search please before posting. Also check out the movie the grinch.
turn off your powersaving apps and change your screen settings powersaving mode.

Please can you attach a photo? We can't tell you if its a hardware problem, energy save config or a kind of bug. When you turn on your phone, the green tint is still in the bootscreen? or just when the phone powers on completly?. We need more info please! Good luck! Sorry my bad english!

When i turn on my Note its directly there !! The word Samsung is displayed in green . On homescreen sometimes the tint is all over and sometimeson the background......
Some screenshots attatched !! Crazy thing is dat when i check the screenshots they are good.......No green whatsoever !! I also made one of the settings with my webcam , see the difference.

well then you wasted my time by not telling you already did that... be full in what have tried, then you will get best help.
On that note, you seem authentic in not being able to figure things out.
tried a different kernel/ rom?
Is that tablet mode?
You running your phone with custom stuff and havent tried a clean situation to eliminate hardware issues?

Tried a couple of Roms/kernels. All the same. This Rom is Dpi 213 so this is Tablet mode yes.

bummer for you,
ok then I guess you have a hardware issue. See if its a warrantee covered. If its hardware issue not caused by your experimentation that is.

is the word Galaxy note also displayed in green when you first turn on the phone?
the galaxy note moniker is part of the bootloader ,the samsung moniker is part of the kernel and the OS.
if you get a clean Galaxy note splash screen then maybe there is hope ,but if not then I think that confirms it's a hardware thing.
best of luck.

I guess you know but just to be sure...you really should bring it back to stock rom and kernel first and check your binary counter. Otherwise you won't have any warranty.
My note became awfull yellowish over time and 'luckily' also had a heavy burn in problem. Send the device in 'as stock' and my screen was replaced under warranty without questions.
btw. my experience with the Sammy service center was good, received the device back within a week.
S'pose you don't like Shrek to huh.....oeps...sorry...couldn't resist.....

Good news,
My screen is going to be replaced under warranty without questions!! They took a look at my Note and said : Oh we have to replace the screen.........that simple!!
Hope to have it done on thursday. After that it's happy flashing again.:laugh:

I'm all clear again . Whitin 15 min. my screen was replaced and that same night i flashed the succer back to it's "normal"state !!!
Custom Rom r superrrrrr
Happy Flashing

good service example, you went straight to Samsung service centre?

definitely an LCD issue. You know its not the rom when it's green before the rom starts. And since the screen shot is digital, it won't show you green if it's the LCD.

No screen...how do i change it back??

Hey guys,
I stupidly dropped my phone in water and awaiting it to dry out, i cant take it back to the store yet as havent changed the ROM back as cant see the screen. Is there anyway of doing it without having to know off by heart the on screen instructions. The screen doesnt seem to repond to anything either. I get the vibrate to tell me its on and that about it, sometimes the SE logo in full oclour before it all blurs and becomes a mash of colour.
I have the stock ROM ready to upload (as kindly retrieved from here) but dont know how to go about changing it now.
Cheers
take urx1 to consumer care center and ask them to look after for u!

I managed to brake my phone :((( help

I installed the odin one click from the CAPTIVATE .... and now the phone only flashes AT&T LOGO the usb is not working any more, not charging not doing anything, and i can't get it by any means in download mode or other mode again. The only thing it will do is flash AT&T logo.... can i get it fixed. or i will have to put it for sale as parts ? thanks hope someone can give me a good advice and help me repair it ...

It can definitely be fixed, it's just a matter of how easily it can be done. Have you tried some of the unusual combinations people have come up with to get into download mode. For example removing the battery, holding power + volume down + home and then reinserting the battery whilst these buttons are held?
Also, if you can't get into download mode that doesn't mean you have to sell it as parts. Samsung will be able to repair it, if they can't tell what you did then perhaps they'll repair it for free under warranty.
Sometimes I just wonder why people try to install low-level software on their device that ISNT MEANT for their device. There is a reason, the captivate has a different model number and that is because it requires DIFFERENT software.
This comes close to me flashing the BIOS for an AMD motherboard on my X58 Intel motherboard.
reason for people installing other software is in my case because im STUPID !!! I stood almost 24 h reading forums in my country and stuff , and i googled ODIN the first link was this ODIN ONE CLIK i entered read about things there and it seamed to be for my phone, and from there we know the story. I did not think for one moment that the soft was for another phone. After i broke it i read all 42 pages and realized that.
I can't get the phone to do anything.... i can't charge it ... it's like the USB does not exist. If i start the phone unpluged, when i plug the usb in turns oFF , ass soon as i take out the USB it will start again to flash the AT&T logo...
I hope if i can't fix it, that SAMSUNG service will change it or can repair it and not charge a hunormus amount of money for that
you have give me hope telling that it can be fixed by samsung , and i still am opened for advices from u guys

thanks, im not going to be upset if people make fun, they can do it because i was so stupid not to see that the soft is for another phone and brake it with my own hand. Isn't on this forum someone that works for Samsung and can tell me for sure what to do , or if the service can do ?

if we´d have this guy here, the galaxy s would be worlds top android device out of the box, since this guy would perfectly know what the problems are with it and could easily manage to incorporate fixes found here or based on testing people made here...

Well there is a way of getting your phone working by putting a file on your sd card but you'd have to look for that .

Actually, you should try it... I've been told that flashing Intel boards with AMD firmwares allows unlimited overclocking! or not.

I'm sorry for that. It's a little bit of frustration speaking there. But I guess you have a way bigger problem. Although that post about putting the right file on the SD seems interesting (but I haven't heard of anything like that before).
But if you can, returning the phone and hoping that samsung will fix it will be the easiest fix.

im sure samsung can fix it evan by changing the sd in the phone with the correct soft will solve it, but i want to see if there is another way of doing it

What to check before purchasing NOTE without warranty.

Hi everyone,
Just a quick query. Need your feedback on it.
I recently ordered Galaxy Note and got “Made in China” make of it, twice. Obviously I mentioned in my order not delivering me the china make, rather I requested for a Korean one. Anyhow, this isn’t the problem. The thing is, now I am getting a Korean make, and as its without warranty, I will only get to check the phone at the shop before paying him. Once I paid and left the shop, the shopkeeper will not be responsible for any damage or manufacturing fault etc.
Therefore, I need you guys to help me know “what” to check when I go buy SGN and “How”?
Would appreciate your response.
Everything?
Umm.. the camera, video recording, headphone jack, check the screen properly.. if possible, download something like dead pixel from market when you're checking and see if there are any dead pixels.. the USB cables and request him if you could connect it to the computer to see if the computer can read the note.. check the About screen in Settings, make sure it's on stock firmware and not rooted either..
Edit: Even the battery.. but I don't know "how" to check it..
I mean I don't have any idea really. Just these few things came up in my mind.. You sure buying it?
I have a Chinese made note with warranty
No problems as of now
I insist you should buy one with warranty

Helpful. One thing I didn't get.. How can we check in setting if it has rooted earlier or not? If the current ROM is stock ROM?
And also, what's with this Dead Pixel application? I couldnt find it on youtube.
Thank u both for guiding!

Check for SuperUser app in the app drawer, if not, if possible, download Root Checker from the market and just run it..
Here's the app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDEsIm5ldC51amFjaGEuZGVhZHBpeGVsIl0.
Apps are not available on youtube, lol!
And to be frank, I don't remember what's displayed in the About screen for a stock ROM, I am almost always on a custom ROM.. Someone else might give you a screenshot of the about screen on a stock ROM.. Cheers!

Yep, in the browser, it shows that wallpaper on most screens.
if watermark only shows up in browser,proved that your phone is ok at least,problem is the browser,is it the original one in Samsung firmware?if so,maybe try to clean up the data of the app in setting or delete it and reinstall one?

That‘s very interesting, i guess it has nothing to do with wallpaper.
Probably issue caused by the screen, like some kind of deja vu
the photo looks like some kind of picture displaying by the phone when placed in market for selling
could it be memories of the screen?confused
Better contact with service center,This is not flashed-solved problem.

Factory reset or and flash stock rom would be the first fix .
Problem across three devices is usually user error or its a fake .Its a bit like what is shown on the Demo shop model .
You need return phone to the vendor or take to a service centre .

[Q] Screen problems

Hello everyone.
I have an S3 mini and screen has been changed under warranty. The screen started to not respond to touch and only restarting the phone to get it working again.
But the screen is already with the same problem and this time is even worse. The problem remains on screens or it can be a problem on board or something like that?
Does anyone has this problem?
Thanks in advance.
