QUOTE(apecx92 @ Feb 16 2022, 01:49 PM) guys february patch already out? roll back to android 11 because Dec or jan patch causing my display to flickering badly. hope feb patch fix it. Be careful. The occasional flickering turned into green screen of death for me. Both motherboard and LCD have to be replaced now. And Samsung insists it's wear and tear, nothing to do with their update.

QUOTE(czhi1021 @ Feb 19 2022, 04:31 PM) My S20FE (updated to Android 12) also have screen flickering with 1 vertical green line on screen not frequently. Usually this occur when I double tap the screen to unlock my phone (always display is on). After noticing this issue, I turn off the always display to always display when charging battery only, so far the screen flickering not happening anymore. Hopefully it is just an common issue after updated to android 12 but not worn and tear for my phone just 1year 4months old. I don't have always on display though. Noticed the green tint when turning on my screen sometimes. My phone is less than 2 years old and everything went downhill within 1-2 weeks. They said it's impossible for it to be caused by firmware/update so must be user habit. 😅

QUOTE(skylinelover @ Feb 20 2022, 03:20 PM) S22 bound?  Yes so happen I pre-ordered before the phone died. But now not very confident with S22U ler lol. Want to cancel also cannot. I'm supposed to pass my S20U to my spouse so still need to fix it. Will lodge a report. Really unacceptable to me cause not misuse on my part and I see so many similar complaints online. My Note 8 on the other hand still going strong hahaha.

QUOTE(foxtrotmike @ Feb 26 2022, 08:13 PM) My S20+ suffered the green/white screen of death this morning. It just happened suddenly with no symptoms like flickering or green lines on the screen. My phone is just a few days away before its 2nd anniversary.[attachmentid=11101759] Side note: the back panel also came off weeks before the screen gone dead. I never dropped my phone, submerged in water or overheat it.[attachmentid=11101760] I'm just going to get a new phone instead of trying to fix it. I'm looking into getting an S22+ but I'm hesitant since the S22 Ultra also having display issues right now. You can try lodge a report at service centre to escalate and see if they offer waiver or discount. I read that the issue with S22U is specific to Exynos variant though. Praying hard that S22U will be better than S20U. Horrible quality and QC... and seems to affect quite a few models.

Seems like it's a matter of time. If you're not planning to fix, think of what phone to get next haha.

QUOTE(foxtrotmike @ Feb 28 2022, 08:49 PM) Do you guys think it's a manufacturing defect since the most cases I read online the phones are early production units? If so Samsung really hoped and prayed that it won't turn out like the Note 7 battery fiasco. Lucky for them it only happened after 2 years this time. Lol I actually thought my phone might explode at some point when the screen died cause it was overheating like crazy...

QUOTE(apecx92 @ Mar 1 2022, 04:28 PM) no wonder display replacement cost rm1000. they also change the body of the phone. display + aluminium body = rm900 + labour cost Isn't it just the front panel? Don't think they changed my aluminium body.
