Recently, when i checked my phone, i noticed there were 3 strange grey lines (translucent).The three lines disappear when i put the phone on auto brightness with the brightness on full. I have never had any screen problems with this phone and i have not sat on it. Can somone please tell ne how resolve this issue or can i send my phone to samsung as it is not my fault. Thank you

Try a factory reset, if you saying the issue goes away when I'm auto brightness then it may just be a software issue. also you could try the samsung display test, google it and someone will guide you through getting to the menu.

Type in *#0*# in the phone dialer menu to bring up the diagnostic tests. You can use these tests to see if theres problems with the screen. I suspect that the problem lies with a damaged lcd which is a hardware defect and not a software one

When your doing the display test, do you still see the grey lines at differing brightnesses?
If you do then it appears to be a screen hardware problem, if not then it is a software problem

when the brightness is on max the screen is normal and when the phone is in the process of turning off the lines also disappear. When i do the display test, the lines show only because the brightness automaticaly gets higher. Thank you for your support
