My screen broke over night, any Ideas why or if I am the only one? - Samsung Galaxy A21s Questions & Answers

Hello,
So today I woke up and saw, that my A21s had pretty much broken. It worked just fine yesterday and now, I have a lot of faulty pixels, that when I open an dark app, they often show up green and when I open a light app, it shows purple lines. I mean, I will get an replacement from my carrier, but can anyone explain, what that is?

[Q] Help Please With My Screen :( i9100

Hi,
I dropped my Galaxy S2 Yesterday (have no idea if this relates to it) But i plugged it into the charger this morning and everything was blue & some of the screen had turned black and some icons had burnt into the screen it looked like.
After taking it with me because it was still usable, Its not completely black except for maybe the faintest part of blue.
Im running Lite'ning rom, The newest one im pretty sure.
Just wondering if this is a virus? Or the screen is dead. I just cant see how it could suddenly die when it was flat and not turned on.
Phones not under warranty by the way. So maybe you could give me some options?
Thanks heaps guys
Probably the problem is hardware related due to the fall, but you could back all your data and try to do a factory reset to see if it fixes or not. If it doesn't fix maybe you should check your screen hardware.
Thanks for the reply,
I just reflashed Litening with Odin 1.85 and still nothing, I get the vibrations, touch lights, sound ect, But only occasionally a tiny little strip of blue along the top.
How would i check my screen hardware? Because i pulled apart my galaxy s after it died and accidently cracked the screen & Glass
How would i do a factory reset by the way? Since i cant see anything
I'd imagine it's dead. I'd take it to your local store and ask for an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it. If you can't see anything, then the screen is either broken or it got disconnected (or maybe some of the ribbons did at least).
Yeah, I just dont really wanna take the phone apart unless i know its likley to fix it.
When i first got it, I noticed it had black splotches on the screen in very dim light on a white background. Nd im guessing id have to almost buy a whole front screen assembly to replace the front screen D:.
Would i be better just to sell the phone how it is? Or repair it?

Back notification light too dim

Hi,
I've had my phone since launch day and I haven't had any (major) problems until tonight. I was showing the back notification light to one of my friends earlier and we could barely see it. I originally had plugged it in to show that it was there. It was really dim! I also had her text my phone to show that it flashed green when I got a notification. I couldn't see it at all! I had to take it into a dark room just to see it. Has anybody else had this problem? Can I return it and get a new one?

[Q] Galaxy S3 screen light up issue

Recently I have noticed that the screen fails to light up when it is placed somewhere cold, It's actually not pitch black, but i can barely see the clock appears on the screen. However put it somewhere warmer and it's fine.
Does anyone have the same problem and know how to fix this?

[Q] Black shows as red. Colors compromised on I9305?

Hello.
I've been using my I9305 a while now with a 4.4 OMNIROM.
Everything was fine until I let my girlfriend borrow it to use the gps for a trip.
She returned it and I noticed the colors are strange. All the blacks went greyish, and gradient colors werent smooth but showed artifacts.
I thought it was a setting but after factory resetting/wiping everything/changing rom the phone still has strange colors, even the green boot android icon seems abit light.
Here are some screenshots showing the same pictures on my phone (the samsung) and a functional HTC. You can see the artifacts and the distorted blacks.

Is it possible she dropped it and damaged the screen/matrix?
Is it possible that some connector to the lcd/digitizer got slightly disconnected? (maybe i should try disassambling)
She used several apps (tomtom, navigon) that have nightmode (screen altering modes), maybe its stuck or damaged.
Please help

Seems like a hardware problem to me. I would try and watch lcd replacement videos to see if the screen is correctly plugged to the motherboard.

[Q] Screen deforming.

alright i dont know how to put this,
the day after i get my edge (gold platinum) i noticed a little deformation in the screen. like swelling up. you can see it when the screen is on.
i noticed this by accidently, i turned a external light on my screen and i saw a swelling/deformation.
and 2 days later i checked it again. its getting worse. i saw a swelling up line in my screen. i tried to capture it on a camera but i cant find the correct angle to get it on.
what i noticed is the phone gets pretty hot and i think this is causing the issue, but im not sure.
so i went to my carrier shop. they promised m e to change it to another s6edge gold platinum. unortuantly its not on stock at this moment so i have to come back after 2 weeks.
so could anyone approve this? am i the only with this issue?
much thanks!
Not sure if this is exactly the same issue but I just posted about this a few hours ago here:
