[Q] Issue: light seeping through touch button

Hi guys
On my SGS2 when the touch buttons are lite part of the light seeps through the gap of the hard button. Does anyone else have this?
I can only see it when it's pretty dark but its very annoying.
I don't have this :s

Yeah, I have it too, but it's not too bad and only visible from certain angles and in a dark room.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Yeah I sometimes have itbut almost rarely, and like the other guy said only from certain angles when I'm looking for it. I put pressure on the button in that direction and it disappears usually

Ive got this very slightly on the right hand side. I also notice when im reading a web page with a black background the very bottom left has a white spot/pixel, it goes away when you start scrolling. Anyone else got the same problem?

Glad im not the only one who has this. Worth returning over?

Personally It doesn't bother me, its hard to notice and even when I can see it, its really tiny. So to me not a problem

Im guessing you have Optus stock as well?
When you look at the touch button straight on can you see the light?
Mine has the same issue but i dont care.
I can only see it when I'm using the phone when it's completely dark
My wife has a mole but shes still beautiful, can we not get a little obsessed with perfection with our phones? It is after all the slimmest, lightest, dual core power house smart phone out there....forgive its quirks?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
My phone did this at first but it went away after a couple weeks as the home button got better seated through use. Definitely not worth returning over.
same here, right hand side!
this was the reason for me to switch off the button lights in settings. looks better anyway
It has to be pretty dark...
didnt realise you could turn the light off
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
send it back, complain to samsung, demand they redesign the handset!
erm...
This will make it heavier and bulkier!!!
Happens to mine and there is NO PROBLEM with it. Be happy!

And more expensive. All these perfectly good handsets getting returned for new ones have to be paid for somehow.
I switched mine off looks so much better, per sonly I wish it was all black like the nexus s, i think that looks so sexy
Have it too, but dont matter !! I am a perfectionist too ( 620 euros it is for a phone !! ) but i think... i mean ... returning it for this????
If it is same as anyone elses in here its BARELY visible and you should try to find it again.. enjoy your phone. ( there are great chances of getting a same unit back, cause its a design thing i think )
Hey,
have it as well. But I don't really mind.

There isn't an app like the tablets in the commercials for them? Ill check that one ur talking about. I'll end up wrapping it if I find nothing, but I was hoping for something a little different and special.
Anything????
Just find a pic of the overhead Beowulf and set as wallpaper and take everything off that screen and neversleep

Is anyone facing this problem, Should I go for exchange?

Normal !!!
I don't think so..I am going to the service center this weekend.
if it's normal then mine is not normal . I hear no noice if I press mine. Total silence from my tablet. I tried for a minute or so to see if it made some noice, but nothing.
No noise in mine too.. good luck buddy, and ask a new one!

I have the same sound on the back cover whenever I touch the back with my fingers. I think it would be because of the plastic case. It's not bothering thing but I'm so curious to find out what is it !?
Mine has an annoying creak if I press to the left of the power slot.
I should point out that it is caused by the case not quite flush against the power input... appears to be a design flaw.
Mine has this as well, its most likely due to a slightly loose panel. I think its normal, which is to say its a byproduct of how the tab is designed.
They replaced the back casing of my tablet..problem resolved
sent via awesome aRc (rooted 2.3.4)
Mine has one above the top right of the screen when in landscape, close to the power button. It is extremely annoying because I seem to grasp that area a lot, otherwise I probably wouldn't care. I have been thinking about checking the warranty to get it fixed, but I fear its a design flaw with the plastic case and such.

Best €10 I've ever spent.

It was ~16USD from Dealextreme. Works out at roughly 10EUR. That was during a sale though.
So not available..?

Still up, but its clearance so they probably wont last. There are a few models, at different prices, but this one seemed the best value to me.

Did you charge it? It has to be charged too.
Connect it then and maximum volume. Worked perfectly for me. If you have a case that covers the top you'll need to remove it to get the jack the whole way in.

Yup done all that.
It works on my friends Xperia Arc and an others X10 mini pro - it just aint working for me
I have a 777-173, could that be a reason?????
No idea.
You could try holding volume down while connecting it. That seems to be a trick for getting headsets to be compatible, might just help.
I'm digging out the post, but it's not working on my Xperia S (Android 4.1.2, newest i-Helicopter from Android).
Is it still working for you?
Seems like they broke something. I can't get the app to work properly.
All I can do is change lights (and that is only when toggling the transmitter ON from OFF) and... that's it. I'm sure that heli works because there's a test app from Orbit that lets you 'test' if engines are OK, but not control the flight
10 dolars?? awesome!

[Q] Phone got wet. Total loss?

Hello!,
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right section but you guys can correct me if I'm wrong and I'll move it to another post.
So here is the case for my Sony Xperia Sola. It fell in water and when I picked it up and turned it on it turned on (bad mistake I know! but that was the first time I ever dropped my phone in water and didn't know what to do in that situation.) it seemed fine but I was still worry. I took out my Sim and SD card and let it dry for an hour. After an hour I turned it on again and it seemed fine so I just left it alone. I never turned off the phone though just for clarification, which I should have after many research but it was too late. Next day I tried turning it on again and it won't power on just a black screen. Then I put the charger on it and the red L.E.D. came on. So I thought the battery was just low tried again to power on but still a black screen. Am I at a total loss here? Can anything be done to save my phone I love this phone and I just had it for 2 months. Maybe a fried battery by chance?
The first thing you should do when a electronic device falls in water is to put it in a jar filled with rice, the rice will absorb water but I guess it's too late to tell you that. If you have still locked bootloader and warranty you could try going to assistance. Hope you solve the problem

I heard this from a friend who has tried this with success, immediately put the device in a container filled with alcohol. It repels the water and does not harm electronics. Remove the battery of course.... Let dry... Should work fine.

You can't remove battery on Xperia sola, it's built-in.

I think it's a little late to soak my Sola in alcohol. It's been 4 days already since the incident.

Yeah, That's what I thought too. Heard that you can't remove the battery, but is it possible to take it apart to find the battery inside? Not a good idea but why not right, phone isn't turning on so minus well. Do you think it could be a fried battery? My front l.e.d. light comes on so any possibility there?
If led turns on I don't think it's battery problem, maybe screen doesn't work cuz water did something there.
You actually can take out battery some how but then it loses warranty

My brother just had this happen. A repair technician told him to take the phone apart and clean the corrosion off of the contacts throughout the phone. You can see it. He did, and the phone is fine now....

My brother didn't remove either. I think because alcohol evaporates very quick. He put his whole phone in the container. Later, after it dried, the phone worked. Maybe it was a fluke......

It's okay I didn't even buy warranty for the phone. So I'm at a dead end here only option left is to take it apart and see if I can do anything to it.
