Seems they are shipping the device back to you via ground, or the inclement weather is delaying your return. I'm just happy the notes from the technician confirmed that your device has a dim area an light bleed. Really curious to see if those techs are QC'ing this as they should. Perhaps they have some perfect replacement screens on hand, and the RMA replacement people are getting the duds. Seems that way for me. 3rd Nexus 4, still has light bleed (though better than the previous 2, keeping it), 7 Nexus 7's (all screen related problems, lift, pixels, etc.) and 3rd Nexus 10. The first 10 was my best and I've kept that one. I'm chomping at the bit so hard on this thread it's not even funny. The second I see that the repair center can actually rectify this issue, I'm sending it in. Hell, if there's some kind of expedited shipping I can pay to get it back faster, I would pay that too. I love this device. I just hate the screen problems.
[Nexus 10 General] supermi1:
From my experience with those types of notes they are the notes taken by the customer service rep when you set up your RMA. At least that is what happened for me when I sent in my galaxy S3 2 months ago. :)
[Nexus 10 General] sovereignty68:
Just received my new N10 today, purchased from Walmart. Pretty bad light bleed lower right corner, and I wanna go through Samsung warranty and have them actually repair them instead of hunting them through Walmart. Please keep us posted once you received your repaired device!
[Nexus 10 General] Biohazard0289:
It's being sent via UPS Ground, I tried for faster shipping, but they said they were not able to do that. In reference to the notes, Samsung's tracking system showed the notes taken when the RMA was started, so these were placed in the system just prior to the email being sent.

I second this I just did exchange number 8 from walmart at over 200 miles driving and SOOOO many phone calls now I am tired but still want a working tablet... fingers crossed over here. FOR YOUR SAKE AND ALL OF OURS :)

well at least I have a tablet in hand to start the RMA with if you get a good screen back :)

happy holidays mate :)

EDIT: Only thing that scared me with the repair is after doing that (time wise and such) no more option to return or exchange :( ... well maybe it is time for most of us to just hold our cash (me stop trying every time I go by walmart LOL) and wait for a tablet that is ready for prime time ... sigh ...
[Nexus 10 General] sovereignty68:
is Samsung suppose to email you the prepaid mailing label to send the device in? I received the repair information from them but no shipping label...
[Nexus 10 General] Biohazard0289:
I received the shipping labels in an email as an attachment, so yes you should receive them via email. Although I believe I received something like an email confirmation for the RMA prior to getting the labels, however I think I may have deleted those emails. If you haven't received them yet I would call and ask for them to be resent.

EDIT: I was wrong I actually received an email with a link to the UPS website, which had a page that had a printable version of the shipping labels.

Tomorrow man... moment of truth. I have to drive 6 hours to NY and back to pick up a dog. I really really hope UPS left you a nice surprise and you are able to put up some review of the fixed device. I'll tell you, mine will be on the first UPS truck out on the 26th if this is a real solution!
[Nexus 10 General] Biohazard0289:
I have to work 8-noon, then I'll be home to wait for it. As soon as I check it out, I'll try to get some news here.

While I REALLY REALLY hope this is the solution, I'm cautiously optimistic.

While I wait for Samsung email me the prepaid label, I am, too, looking forward to your feedback on your repaired device. I will be sending mine on 26th as soon as I hear good news from you! Stay optimistic.

Have all your screen replacements so far been covered under warranty or has anyone had to pay for repair?

I ask because I'm thinking about replacing a shattered screen if it's worth the money and time. Due to my complete momentary lack of brain function is left it on the hood of my truck while packing the car up for a trip and in my rush to hit the road (and it was dark already) i forgot it on the hood and didn't realize till I hit 30mph and the wind took it for a short flight and a very rough landing...

Funny thing is the huts all seem to work fine, touchscreen, memory, wifi, all's well do far that I can tell, but the screen is simply destroyed. It's probably not worth repairing but I can't seem to bring myself to just throwing away $400 with out trying to evaluate all other options...

Next time I'm signing up for sqauretrade protection plan. Have you guys heard of them? Sounds like a he'll of a deal and it would have allowed me a replacement tablet for a mad cheap deductible! Too bad I heard of them too late...

100% Brightness

50% Brightness

0% Brightness

To be fair, I feel a lot of what you see is the camera on the Note II trying to pick up light from the tablet. Pictures were taken in a dark room.

With the naked eye the bleed exists under "test" conditions, but it's far bet than it was and multi touch is still broken. In Normal use at approx 33% Brightness (normal for me, I don't use auto) I can't see it, even on the navigation bar. Total black screen, I can see it at all levels of brightness. No yellow bleed, and the areas where it's bleeding invade no more than 1 inch into the screen.

The colors seem better, and the tablet no longer creaks. It cost nothing to go through the process, and it was quicker than I expected.

CONCLUSION: I'm glad I sent it in, but multi touch still drops after about 1/2 a second. Judging by the screen quality and build quality, I don't feel like I'm "just dealing with it" because I can't see it, and before I tested it I thought I had a perfect tablet.

Multi touch is bothering me, but it could be software related I'm not sure.

If anyone has specific questions or tips on getting a better quality photo, I'm happy to try to accommodate anyone.

I really hope this helps some of you.

[Nexus 10 General] supermi1:
Brave soul !!! A big thanks to you for not only getting Samsung to repair it and sending it in but being so prompt with updates :highfive:

There is some light bleed but not too bad ... my most recent one #8 and most others i tried have noticeable light bleed at zero brightness :( often on things like the home screen. It seems on that front you are doing well :)

I have not checked the multi touch of any of the screens so i do not know if that is normal for these tablets or another wide spread defect ... wish I had collected that data for you :)

How is your white screen? Is the white even or are there dark patches/bands esp near the camera side edge ... not sure if it would show up in a picture but if you wanna try I would love to see :)

Also dead pixel free?

I am more inclined to send it in for repair than I was before, I thank you for that, I actually tried to get my first one repaired but the tablet was SOOO NEW that no one in any department could help me LOL my serial number was not even in any ones systems yet LOL well that was 7 tablets ago HAHAHA...

ENJOY your Nexus you deserve it!!! :)
[Nexus 10 General] Biohazard0289:
Dead pixel free and white is a little dim at the top, but again is much better than it was. Good thing the notification bar is black. :rolleyes:

Interesting note: Apparently Samsung tested the YouTube app, ****en problems, and 2 chainz had been searched. :confused:

So you have dimming along the camera side? I'm going to post pics of mine
[Nexus 10 General] Biohazard0289:
Yeah a little bit, but it takes 100% Brightness on a fully white screen to find it. Otherwise its good. Not sure what's up with that.

Sent from my Galaxy Note II
[Nexus 10 General] Jayrod1980:
First is full brightness at boot up. Second is the dim band. Seems your screen is similar to mine. I never see the bleed unless I have a very bright black screen. I was most concerned about the dim band. On some screens the banding is more noticeable. Since you still have a dim band maybe I won't send mine in. Can you take any pictures of the screen with a white background webpage?
[Nexus 10 General] Biohazard0289:
100% Brightness, no exposure mod.

100% Brightness, +2 exposure

100% Brightness, no exposure mod.

100% Brightness, +2 exposure

Not sure if exposure helped, I'm going to try with a real camera in a few.

[Nexus 10 General] supermi1:
Little hard to tell with these but I do think I can make out the darker area on the camera side towards the bottom if so it is very close to most of the ones I have tried.
[Nexus 10 General] Jayrod1980:
Weird that your dimming is on a short side. Mine is on the long camera side. Doesn't look like I can get a better panel overall than I have. I really have little to zero bleed. The dimming is across a whole side but I think its because the panel wasn't glued flat. If I tilt the angle the dim part goes away so I don't think they pressed it flat at even pressure when they glued the panel part together.

Thank you Biohazard for keeping us updated! Unfortunately you repaired screen look identical to what I already have on mine. *See attachment*

I'm not sure if I should return it to Walmart for refund and wait for next batch. :/

Edit: I'm going to return mine for refund. Tried Samsung support, for whatever reason, they are unable to send me a prepaid shipping label to send the device in. I won't get N10 until Google/Samsung has fixed the problem.
[Nexus 10 General] jkel777:
So would you guys recommend sending it in to Samsung to repair it, or exchange it at Walmart? I'd exchange it, but the Walmart closest to me hasn't had any in stock since the day I bought it. Sending it in for repair seems like the best choice to me, but I do have 13 days left to exchange it...

Hey guys.

My S3 just died on me.

I left it charging over night, in the morning pulled it out - battery 100% - and play on it for about 5 mins.

After that I simply left the phone on the table, and after a couple of hours, when I picked it up to make a phone call, the phone was shut down.

I tried to turn it on - nothing. Tried the 3-button combinations, nothing! I pulled the battery out and everything - nothing.

I then left it for charge for about 10-15 mins and then tried again - nothing :((

Left it charging for a couple of hours, also tried with a other 3 chargers and cables - nope!

I went to a samsung store and tried a new battery, same same:(

It seems that I have to send it for repairs, but there is a bigger problem: I have a custom rom installed on it :( - therefore no warranty:((

Is there a way of flashing the stock rom with it like this?

Any ideas or anyone had the problem?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dean-xXx:

Hey guys,

Anyone tried looking at their phone with polarized sunglasses on? Try making your screen white and putting on some Oakley's or something. I found a bunch of yellow looking "stains" that i can't see normally.
[Nexus 4 General] morrislee:
lol, all LCD's should look like that, LCD screens comes with a polarized film on top to refract the lights passed through the liquid crystals.

Your glasses lens are not "flat", which will make the polarized light passed through the film then to your glasses look uneven, as they pass in at different distance (outer edge of your glasses will have a greater distance to the screen than the center of the lens)

Depends on different manufacture of the LCD's calibration, you will see different colors - probably closest to a person's vision who is high on drugs.

Try looking at many other cars' windows, especially the rear window, you will see a dot like pattern when you use polarized glasses

Aren't you a genius, of course you wouldn't it was AMOLED not LCD.
[Nexus 4 General] cwappy:
I think things like this are common with LCD screens. I haven't tried it on my new N4, but my old iPhone's screen would go dark if I turned it sideways to landscape. It was very annoying when trying to drive in my car.
[Nexus 4 General] csdibiase@gmail.com:
Parts of my car's dash board does the same thing. That's just the problem with LCD based displays. That's why my last 2 Paris of prescription sunglasses have been non-polarized.
[Nexus 4 General] morrislee:
AMOLED emits lights on each pixels already, no polarization layer is needed - also one of the reason why AMOLED's are thinner, since they are diodes, not liquid crystals, does not require glass layer to trap the "liquid", hence why they can be made in thinner profile and some are flexible.

Think about AMOLED's are like a tiny piece of board with lots of tiny LED's, you don't see LED's in a different funny colour when you use polarized glasses. (Some AMOLED's might appear different probably due to polarized glass on top to improve the glass' own transparency or glare issue - only theory, haven't seen it happen)

LCD's needs a filter to bend out the lights unnecessary, but AMOLED's just are composed of lots of little light bulbs if you will, this process is eliminated.

AMOLED's has very vibrant colours as the contrast is impressive, but it has a shorter life span. First gen Galaxy S' are already seeing ghosting of keyboards and the notification bar imprinted in the screen, my older Acer Liquid E's LCD screen still look as sharp as the first day minus the scratches of course.

Bring a set of 3D glasses from the theaters, take the lens out and stack them together in different order/sides and see cool effects such as turning the angles will allow the amount of lights pass through (adjustable sun glasses anyone?)

Plus and minuses on each side, who do you choose! Let me know your flavor :)

His description was "coffee stains" I don't see anything that fits that when I look at any of my LCD's with polarized glasses. Not on my: TV, phone, computer screen or tablet.
