I recently installed a firmware upgrade from Kies and now i have a blue tint on the screen which follows my finger when i swipe,
Anyone else had this problem and can it be rectified?

Details Kernal version 2.6.35.7-19100xwkj1-CL647341 root@Dell150#2

Thanks

Lol. Do you mean the ics feature that indicates you can't scroll any more? I think you used to bounce when you reached top or bottom but that was something apple claimed to have invented.

So now you get a blue glow instead ....

It starts from the edge of the screen top, bottom and sides and follows my finger when i swipe.
I didn't have it before the firmware upgrade and i have even tried a factory re-set which didn't cure it but did give me a lot of hassle re-installing every thing!!

Top 1cm? When you reach the top of a browser page it glows as you try to swipe your finger to keep scrolling?

Thanks for the reply, I will try and explain it better, The blue tint covers the whole side of the phone when i swipe for about a quarter of the screen.

It seems like that feature may not have made it to the sgs2 anyway ....
.

Check out something like http://crave.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/sams...ideo-50007318/

If your issue doesn't show in demo videos then maybe contact Samsung.

Alternatively the sgs2 XDA Developers forum might help.

The positive news is if its only started since you upgraded the software and if its not something that is meant to be there then it should be fixable. Sorry I can't help more.

The blue scrolling tint was added to the SGS2 on the last update.
Does the problem exist in all apps or just specific ones?

Good place to ask questions...Here..
