It's a common flaw with super amoled screens I believe

Here's a another thread on it

I have the same issue little black dots all over the screen i went to return mine they said its not covered by their guarantee (videotron) i was little bit pissed..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aussie88:
Its normal with most of the AMOLED screens. Doesn't really affect general useage unless you have OCD or something :p

i must be blind because i havent seen any defects on my s3. when i had the s2, there were a ton of blotches over the whole screen
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1slow4G:
No dots here

Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi :P
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gypsy214:
Yeah I noticed about the other thread. I got my phone yesterday and noticed it when I was in bed playing with it. I have the s2 t989 as well and that doesnt have the defect. I understand some of the old s2 have some defect on the screen color but this one is different. It looks like the digitizer was cracked. At the bottom it looks like a signature a bunch of black line and a lot of dots on the screen. Though when I put the brightest a little bit brighter its gone. It doesnt bother me. But This phone is new and it should not have any defect.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Common defect nbd. Not even close to how awful the backlight bleed was on my iPad 2 before I got it replaced.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ferlogan:
I do Have the same issue but i'm not sure if goingto change my phone is under warranty!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rookiegenius:
known issue. However, my S3 doesn't have any or at least it is much much better than 2 my previous ones. (yes, I know how to check it and Im very picky; Im that kind of guy that goes to the closet to check the screen right after unboxing it). I didn't exchange my phone for this issue. i just happen to get a non-black dot one. Exchange it if you feel so. doesn't affect much tho.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Shayd93:
This is on all OLEDs even mine, it is not defect and will not disrupt colors or brightness since they are visible only in pitch black, I don't even think they would replace your phone because of that
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DigitalUnderground:
I don't have any either... altho my keyboard did get burnt into my screen from all the usage. I will warranty exchange when it gets closer to a year of owning it... my biggest defect is the sticking of volume down rocker
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] NJaynAZ:
I have what looks like a little smudge on the bottom left of my screen. It doesny affect anything for me, for now...

Cosmos

This application uses NASA's Image of the day feed to provide your lock screen with interesting pictures each day (depending on NASA).

You can pick from the small or large resolution images if you wish to conserve bandwidth. The large images are resized to fit WXGA displays to reduce data usage.

This is my first publish WP8 application, so hopefully you'll like it.

Features:

- Sets your phones lock screen wallpaper to the NASA Image of the day.

- Runs in background and checks for new images, then it will download and set it as your lock screen wallpaper.

This application is not endorsed or affiliated with NASA in anyway and all images are owned by NASA.

Will add a direct link when I have enough posts, there is a qr code attached in the mean time.

If you still want to know how to flash Ravenous ROM, you can do by following instructions.

- Download and copy zip file into SD Card (my card file format is FAT32)

- Install ROM Manager from Google Play

- Choose Flash ClockworkMod Recovery - it will notice your device isn't in device list, so choose manual install and choose version 3.x (my choice)

- Reboot to Recovery using ROM Manager

- Flash Ravenous ROM

- Reboot and enjoy

Note: my device already rooted from manufactory

Signature Verification file for me

Hey ramgear, about that process, didn't you get the Signature verification error for the zip file? I couldn't install it at all, even though the zip file from robin.raven seems to be signed. Tried copying it a bunch of times to no avail.

Of course ROM Manager didn't install any recovery at all, so I had to use the 3e recovery from the phone.

In that case, does anyone have an adb-pushable recovery or any other one? the one in the Russian forum has a set of instructions that I honestly can't understand at all.

Thanks.
[Android General] rocketdan9:
Sunny does this phone support 850/1900 WCDMA??

its funny how nobody can answer this question about these clone phone.
[Android General] ramgear:
3e Recovery always report signature fail for Custom ROM, so you need to install CWM Recovery.

For me, i have installed ROM Manager by download from http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/RomManager.apk then install Flash CWM (1st choice) using ROM Manager program (internet connection required) and reboot into CWM Recovery (2nd choice) using ROM Manager.
[Android General] srkarakol:
HI!

Just a question, to install RomManager you need to be root, right?? how I can get root permission??

thanks a lot!!

Yeah i'm waiting for an answer as well!

Correct, you need to be root. I never root this device because I told them to root my phone from China.

BTW, see how to root tutorial from http://colonelzap.blogspot.com/2012/12/changjiang-n7300-phablet-mt6577-how-to.html (no confirm, I never try)
[Android General] rocketdan9:
ingboxam de-lis

i don't understand these Chinese phone makers. Why not just make your phone to have 850/1900 WCDMA support??

The last time i checked, there are millions and millions of people that live in South and North America also. They would of sold a ton more if they just spend a few more bucks to add the feature

Also whats upsetting are these chinese phone sellers that list these features only to be false. Some list them and even assure you the feature is there. But your skeptical and don't want to go through the hassle to get a refund.

What makes things even more tricky is that MTK6575/6577 chip can support it. Blu Studio has this chip and supports 850/1900 WCDMA
[Android General] srkarakol:
thanks!! ramgear ... I will try.
[Android General] lfaria123:
My CWM just sits there and doesnt install any CWM after the "manual" option, any idea what im doing wrong? i did exactly what you said and even installed the rommanager you linled above but after after choosing the manual option it doesnt do anything.
[Android General] ramgear:
Instruction:

1) Open ROM Manager

2) Choose "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"

3) Choose "Device Not Listed Above"

4) Choose "Yes"

5) Choose "ClockworkMod 3.x+"

6) Choose "OK"

7) Choose "Reboot into Recovery"

7) Choose "OK"

Then your phone will reboot into CWM Recovery, then wipe data/flash rom

;)
[Android General] lfaria123:
Yeah i did that and the phone reboots into 3e Recovery (not CWM). When i try th flash the rom it gives me the signature error. Do i have to do anything else to install cwm before this?

Thx for all the help m8

Edit: Maybe its because Rom manager isnt installed into the internal memory?
[Android General] brotherman38:
which modal n7300 phone? Changjiang or HDC, etc..

You know this for 100% that the phone really supports these bands? I have an x710d the gui show it can do thses bands but it really only supports WCDMA 850/2100 on 3G!
[Android General] lfaria123:
Just a quick updated i moved the app to internal memory, did just what you said and when i reboot with rom manager it reboots into that symbol of the android on its back with a red triangle over him, i press the back key and it goes into 3e Recovery.... i must be doing something wrong along the way...
[Android General] lfaria123:
Any news on this?
[Android General] lfaria123:
Another thing, is there anything we can install that repairs the proximity sensor?
[Android General] bracca:
Yes, please!

I am really enjoying this phone, even though it does only 2G on T-mobile. Call quality is great. Crisp, clear, loud.

BUT, and this is a big but: I cannot use screen during call. I have it set to where I can hang up with power button, but if I am on a automated call that prompts me for input, it's unusable. The screen is dark during call when in my hand and it comes back every few seconds for a very brief and unusable milisecond.

Have you people tried the ROM from above or the Russian forum and is the problem still there?

Thank you!

[Android General] lfaria123:
I have the n7300 for about a week now and all i can say is i whish i had known about this phone sooner :D its very good for what you pay for. The screen is bright, the sound is awesome, i have 0 issues with gps/wifi/3g with it at all. The only problem im having so far is the proximity sensor not working properly during calls. The batery life is what you'd expect, with wifi+calls+movies+games it lasts a day, wich is more then i was expecting to be honest. Im guessing in stand by it should last days.

So far so good and i'd recomend it to anyone wondering about it. Now to get the God-damn cwm to work hehe
[Android General] bracca:
Great value.

Screen is just great. Amazing detail. I owned mktorola DroI'd razr and the screen was awful with very visible hash patterns.

Call quality is great.

GPS takes 3-5minutes to lock in.

Video is pretty bad especially when compared with Samsung galaxy note 2,which shoots HD and has this AWESOME slow motion feature.

Overall it's fast. I don't play intensive games so I can't speak to phone ability when really stressed. I got 6100 on the new amity benchmark.

Playstore works.

Phone does Not support wcdma 1900.

About yo try a month of prepaid att to see how 3g works, because in my area think att is wcdma 850.

I hate to send this phone back to China from the U.S.. I really like it, but this has to be fixed.
[Android General] lfaria123:
well it does cause you need the new rom to access the factory menu that does the calibration, on the first page theres a link to the russian site. after installing the rom you can go there and read on the procedure

I rooted easily, but I still can't install CWM. Were you able to install CWM? Or did you flash the ROM through the 3e recovery?

Thank you all.
[Android General] lfaria123:
Its an adventure to install the cwm and the rom afterwards... I can translate the guide i used into English and upload the files, but not before the weekend.

Basically you need to download a program called flash tools (its an odin/heimdall look-a-like if you ever owned an samsung device) and install the cwm with it. it removes the root and installs the latest official firmware. After that you go into cwm and flash the ravenous rom with it which restores root.

Ill get back to you over the weekend with the "how to"
[Android General] bracca:
That would be great. I really look forward to your help. Thank you so much.
[Android General] lfaria123:
Ok heres the guide i used, im not responsible for any bricked devices :p

1: Install the device drives:http://www.4shared.com/zip/YXlLFoLm/...l_3_steps.html (DO NOT TRY TO PROCEED WITHOUT BEING SURE YOU HAVE INSTALLED THE DRIVES), connect the phone to the computer via USB and verify the installation after it enters into "SETTINGS", "DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS" and select the option "USB DEBUGGING" wait again while its installing the drives,.

2: Download the application FlashTools 3.4: http://yadi.sk/d/nqXcHFct29RYO

3: Download the Android 4.1.1 ROM: Extract the file in your documents http://forum.china-iphone.ru/away.htm?http://yadi.sk/d/eJcjAeAP1S9G8

4: Download CWM: http://www.4shared.com/rar/YnPNQ1AP/e1901_v77_cxq_asx_121128_ForFl.html

(Extract the files, look inside this floder , however we will only need the file "e1901_v77_cxq_asx_121128__recovery_121231-144016.img "rename the file to" recovery.img "(without quotes), take this file and place it inside the folder of the ROM Android 4.1.1 (" 20121126_e1901_v77_cxq_asx ") replacing the standard android recovery that is within it;

5: Turn off the phone, remove the battery and connect to the computer via USB, wait for the installation of drives, leave the phone connected via USB, if not automatically install the drives, I suggest you do not proceed with the installation;

6: Enter the briefcase FlashTool 3.4 and run the application "Flash Tool.exe";

7: In option: "Scatter-loading File" click on "Scatter-loading" on the right side of your screen and look inside the briefcase ("20121126_e1901_v77_cxq_asx") the file "MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc", click open, you will see that the application will automatically select all files;

8: Click the "Download" button and wait for the installation to 100%, the application will give an OK message on successful completion, if he did not recognize at first your phone, remove the USB cable from the phone and reconnect quickly so the application proceeds with the installation.

9: after all of that, copy the ravenous rom to the sd card - Rom http://www.ulozto.cz/xCqu6nt/ravenous-v1-0-n7300-4-1-jb-zip, reboot into recovery (shutdown the phone and boot it pressing volume up and the power button) and install the rom (wipes are recommended).

Sensor Calibration

Ok for the calibration, the bootloader is in chinese so follow the steps below

1.turn the phone off

2.press volume down and the power button

3.select the 3rd form the top

4.select the 18th form the top

5.select the 1st form the top

7.select the 2nd form the top

8.select the last line

Good luck with it :D

Remeber that you will loose root after installing the Android 4.1.1 ROM. After installing the Ravenous rom it will be rooted again.

N7300 proximity sensor works now

ifaria, thank you!

well, I thought I'd check the ROM version and 4.1.1 shipped stock from China. So I thought, well. let me boot into bootloader.

I did. and it was in ENGLISH!!!

So I went to

Item Test>PS Calibration.

Clear calibration

Do Calibration.

Rebooted, made call. No go. Same thing another couple of times.

THEN, I thought in order for "Cali result" to show a number, I covered sensor with my hand, selected "Do Calibration" and the "Cali result" number moved up. Rebooted and I have a properly working proximity sensor when in a call. I am so excited.
