Galaxy S2 Yellow Screen Defect

[Deleted User]

Hey everyone,

I know this has probably been bought up before but I have a yellow screen problem on my Galaxy S2! I don't want anyone to tell me to send it back because I can't. This is my 3rd Galaxy S2 as it is as my 1st one had a problem with the home button, 2nd one had a call quality issue now I have this one which is useable but has a yellow screen. In addition to it being my 3rd one I am passed the 30 day return period by about 2/3 months, so doing a return is out of the question and as it's rooted and flashed I am thinking warranty is also out of the question.

I always knew I had a yellow screen problem on this 3rd one because my other 2 were noting like this but I never thought it was too bad... Until the other day my mate got a Galaxy S2 and bought it over, when I compared his to mine that's when I realised how bad mine is! I took some photos, please take a look (My mates with a prefect screen on the left and mine with the yellow screen on the right).

I just want to know how many people actually have this issue and whether there are any software apps that may fix it? I will also post a poll so please answer that accordingly!

Thanks in advance!

Mine is white, like your mate's screen. I don't think there's an app that can help you as it's a manufacturing issue. Some batches of screens have slight colour temperature differences. My iPhone 4 was like yours though, and ultimately you just have to live with it. I knew mine was 'off-white' but it didn't bother me. It seems you have two choices; learn to live with it or replace it.

It doesn't really bother me too much, I have got used to it and I will be getting the Galaxy S3 when its out anyway so that won't be long. So I can live with it and I won't get it replaced.

I just wondered if anyone else had this 'issue'... Thanks for your reply
