Like Glebun said, it looks like you've got something in developer settings on. Regardless of whether you say you've touched it or not, you should look to see which one it is and turn it off.

upload a screen of developer settings

In developer options, untick show pointer location

If you talk about the "washed out" part on the right side, it comes from the ripple effect
Just go to lockscreen settings and disable it
Yep.Same problem here.Just check it.

now pretend Kenny Powers has a SGSIII in his left hand...
i'm pretty sure i saw video of people swiping the screen with their entire palm from right to left.
You swipe all the way from left or right to the other side of the screen with the side of your hand. It's enabled by default in "Motion" options.
Not working?
My motion actions are not working? When I first opened the phone the swipe to get a screenshot feature worked. Now it does not. i checked the setttings and it is enabled, so I'm confused. Also, when I cover the screen while playing music it doesnt pause the music like its supposed to? Do I have a lemon? Ive tried rebooting to no avail.
Please help!!

Screenshot option in menu? LLW (ICS)

I was wondering if someone has the menu with this option, cause I have this one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But it has no option for screenshot. I know that in ICS to take a screenshot, you just press power button and volume down for about 3 seconds, but i would like to have the option in the menu.
I will post my new mod when i awake.

So you post while you're sleeping? Haha just kidding, Ok I'll wait till you upload ur mod, thanks.
Edit: I already saw your post, it seems you made an overall mod, but the only thing i want is the screenshot option on the power menu... XD
I use this mod (scroll down if you want only screenshot option in the menu), but there are at least 3 simmilar mods, so it's up to you to choose

Ambient Display setting has no effect

Hi,
as per thread's title, I can't see any difference when switching this setting on. Is it just me?
Thanks for any info.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I does work for me.
If the Display is turned off and you receive a message or whatsapp or email and so on, the display activates and is showing the lockscreen.
If this option is turned off and a msg comes in there is no reaction at all, so the display remains dark. (Other than the sound / vibrate / light etc.)
Well, in this case I can confirm it doesn't work for me.
(Mmmh... now it's more than one thing that's not working...)
Any suggestion? The feature looks quite nice.
OK, it works when setting one lock method at least, I.e. swipe to unlock. I had nothing set before.
Not sure it makes sense, but at least it works.

I can't see the image, but is it like this:
If yes then turn off show cpu usage.
Sorry about the image, I fixed it already. But no it has nothing to do with the CPU usage setting.
Found out that it's factory mode. Fixed with http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/fixed-exit-factory-mode-t2424015
