it`s not a problem.
does he use siyah kernel ?
resolve: press 3 timeshome button very fast or search for the " negative color" widget and deactivate it

No, he's a noob stock ROM and un rooted, didn't let the phone drop or anything

LOL at my mate, he said "wow, Samsung customer support were quick in getting back to you with an answer" I thought that was funny, told him about XDA and he said he might have a look in as he is a complete noob

You had your notification turned off. Pull down the status bar and turn it on, it'll go away

Text edit copy cut paste... But undo/redo..?

On galaxy phone you can, like on iPhone, copy cut and paste text. However, undo and two is badly missing. So I'm searching for an add-on or app that would fix this. So you know any?

I second this! Sorry I can't help, but this seems to be a useful feature that is missing
Needless to say i searched before posting. Since a long time...

NO one? This must exist somehow, somewhere... Android is 5 years old!

This is not funny... Having pinch to zoom in gmail took like 4 years, undo/redo will take more apparently..?

Just crazy
IS NO ONE REALLY MISSING THAT FEATURE OR WUT..!?!

No bumping after 81 minutes. Absolutely positively not allowed. A really good way to get your thread ignored completely & not get any help whatsoever.

It's known bug for Android.
As far as I know,,
1. Don't do anything else until the screenshot is saved.
2. If it stuck, take another screenshot, the second shot will override the first one.
At least that's how I deal with it... hope it helps.

Return it to the vendor unless its you that broke it .

Basically I rooted it, flashed cwm and then when I tried to flash a rom, the installation failed so I just decided to reboot the phone. It was at that point that it just wouldn't turn back on, not even into recovery. I did get a new one though

If it beeps when connected, it is on. I guess the AMOLED Screen broke.
