[Streak 5 General] life02:
I wish it was an april fools joke.... yeah I'm sure it's not that streak ;).... The screen and front bezels were brand new and had plastic wrap on them.

I gave up on Dell calling me back so I called them and talked to the same tech that did my first replacement. I told him I was surprised how fast the replacement got here but Decision One, Dell's refurb company, did a horrible job on the refurb. He laughed and said they shipped it so fast they forgot to repair it. He spoke with his supervisor and set up a new replacement (for the replacement).

I'll post an update when it gets here.
[Streak 5 General] life02:
Just got the order update... it looks like they are sending me a brand new one:

1 225-0059 Streak UMTS Base

1 318-0145 Carbon,Streak

1 317-1902 16GB SD Memory Card

1 331-0805 Black Barcode label,16GB,UMTS,No SIM, Online,Unlocked,Streak

1 331-0789 Dell Streak Documentation & Manual, Unlocked
[Streak 5 General] Rico ANDROID:
Now thats what you call service! Your persistence paid off and all worked out great! The tech was honest and saw your concern , took care of it and you are back in business!
[Streak 5 General] life02:
Replacement Streak

Well I received the new replacement streak on Monday. It had two dead pixels but I decided I could live with it since it was actually working and had no damage... Now there is an entire line of dead pixels on the screen... Guess I'll be calling again in the morning.
[Streak 5 General] Rico ANDROID:
Thats not good.
[Streak 5 General] life02:
And replaced with another brand new one by Dell... Much quicker this time I might add. But I'm putting it up for sale in the xda marketplace.
[Streak 5 General] Rico ANDROID:
I am glad you hada faster result. I am so infactuated with my Streak, I wish I could affortd to buy that new one from you, buddy. You are going to make somebody happy!
[Streak 5 General] life02:
I loved my streak too but just had some back luck with the lasts ones. My main complaint is the black glossy bezels for the buttons and camera/speaker panel.

The screen is perfect for typing on. All my friends with Iphones loved the size and the screen too.
[Streak 5 General] Rico ANDROID:
I like that big green grin you have in your sig. So, will you still have a streak after selling this new one?
[Streak 5 General] WeedMan4lbg:
You all are lucky... In my country Dell support is miserable and there is no such thing as replacement....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dhiru1602:
Dear Developers,

I have been messing with my phone lately and got to know something.

1. Pull out the Battery and reinsert it.

2. Go to a Pitch black room and boot the phone.

3. At the Galaxy S Screen, you can notice that the Black portion of the screen is totally black, meaning that the pixels are totally OFF.

4. Once the Phone boots up, Power Off the phone, just before the phone turns off, you will be able to see a bare illumination as if there is some backlight, which means that the Black pixels are not totally off. You can even notice the same with a black image on your screen.

I am not a Technical Person, but I guess the screen driver is powering down the pixels instead of totally turning them off, like it happens during the boot. Maybe we can tweak the driver to totally power down pixels for black content. This would help the screen show deeper black levels and also will help save the battery, keeping in mind that the screen is the biggest battery hog.

Maybe any Developer can share a word on this.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] The_Double:
they always give some light . But when there is something at the screen (like the logo), you can't see it because of the high contrast.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dhiru1602:
I have made several checks and I am pretty sure that the logo screen has totally black background, but after booting, the screen gives out some light.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jobiza:
Human eye can't see deeper levels of black what it is now and samsung would have tweaked it if it wouldn't harm phone, or if it would be even possible.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dhiru1602:
I am giving main emphasis on the battery life rather than colors. The boot screen shows perfect black so the screen can definitely support it..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Furry Atom:
SAMOLED screens can display true black. If you want to get technical the contrast ratio of a SAMOLED screen is infinite. The battery life gains wouldn't be noticeable though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
My guess is that the 'almost-black' brightness is to maintain response time.

A non-linear device (like a diode or a transistor) that is completely off will have a transient to turn on because it's junction/channel capacitance(s) need to be charged up before it will start to conduct. In things like current DACs there will sometimes be a trickle current through 'off' devices whose purpose is to keep devices 'on' so that they will be faster to start conducting again when required.

Just guessing that this may be the reason for the non-zero minimum brightness (although it is pretty damn dark).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Unrealwolf:
Op, i've just tried pulling pattery out - the screen still shines.

However, i would really like to see the completely off black pixels - for reading in dark, for example. We need to ask someone like Supercurio to sort everything out.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
the NoLED app was made specially for this phone to conserve battery

when a OLED display is not on, it is not using power, it has no light

google OLED technology to learn more
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Unrealwolf:
You are wrong. This app was not made to conserve battery, and it does not turn off light completely. Read the op-post here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=730692 Author had marked out statement about energy consumption, because black on Super Amoled doesn't behave as it should on OLED.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
you mean this? http://www.devasque.com/noled/FAQ.php
[Galaxy S I9000 General] The_Double:
keep your finger over the logo and any other light sources and you will see the black still gives some light.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] m00f:
Sounds interesting
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rlorange:
I believe this is current leakage or deliberate to boost response time. I think its just how it works period kind of like wishing the backlight didn't bleed through blacks on lcd screens... can't be changed with a driver mod sorry

Simply flash a voodoo kernel. That is it.

Gmail is standard, there is no different Gmail than the one installed on your MS2.

Any help with either of these much appreciated.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimcpl:
Keyboards / IMEs don't install "normally" on TNT or any of its variants. After you install the APK, you'll have to manually move the installed .apk file(s) from /data/app dir to /system/app. Search the Themes/Apps forum for "alternate keyboard" for details.

Wow. I tried to dumb it down but when I lost everyone two minutes in I just let go... turns out there's really no simple way to explain the toast method command by command in under ten minutes.

Good job! I can relate to you "losing" everyone in the class. The other day we had some down time at work so I hopped on XDA. Of course the different color computer screen caught a few of my coworkers attention. Luckily they were android users, though I would hate to have their phones (Hero, My Tough 3G) lol. Anyway, long story short I had to explain what XDA was and why it existed. Why/How to root, and all that good stuff. By the end of my explanation most were lost (It attracted half the room). I didnt talk for more than 5 minutes, so I can imagine what the face looked like on your classmates! :confused: lol The guy with the Hero wrote down XDA and a few threads I showed him on making his Hero better. Gonna be interesting to see what he did, if anything, over the weekend. I may have a side job :D

This works for me. Hope it helps! Cheers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] fr3akBut:
I'm on giffgaff... when i swapped sim from o2 i had problems with data.

In settings, Access Point Names, there should be one for GiffGaff automatically, if it's not selected, select it, double tap into it, and from menu button, save it.

That's all it took to make it work on mine... running Owains 2.2 floyo 3.6 version.

[Atrix 4G Accessories] MarcosC:
I suppose that the Atrix, like other Android phones, switches to a special mode with looks like an alarm clock when put on a cradle. Is that correct ? If so, will this work only on the original Motorola cradle or also on the aftermarket ones ? I've seen some on Ebay for about $ 20, while the Motorola one costs at least double the price.

Has anyone already bought any of these cradles and can comment on the usage / quality ? Here's an example on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Motorola-ATRIX-4G-MB860-Dock-Cradle-Charger-Battery-/200592993188?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2eb4462ba4
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Jim_R:
Well, if you look closely the ATRIX in the mock dock does not display the desktop dock clock- so there's a partial answer for you. I suspect that the cradle offers a single micro usb connectiom to the phone opposed to the dual connections in the Moto docks.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] neotekz:
looks like just a generic cradle for any phones with micro usb on the side. i doubt it will bring up the stock dock app...they would of probably written that in the ad if it did. you can always email the seller to ask.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] bench_strength:
I am perhaps mis-readng this

My "non-multi-media" Motorola dock, the one typically used as a charger-alarm clock - only has a single micro-USB connection to the side-mounted phone. Not two connectors.

Hello everyone:)!

Since a few days I have a problem with Mobile Data Connection on ALL Gingerbread ROM's (Oxygen, CM7, GingerVillain, Redux), however a few days ago everything worked fine. I have also noticed that I don't have this problem with Froyo ROM's like RCMixHD :confused:

The browser doesn't work, whereas e-mail and The Market work... I always make a Data/Factory Wipe in Recovery before I flash a ROM. I have even tried different radios (currently on 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27), but the problem persists. Internet works fine on WiFi... on edge or hdspa/3g the browser won't work. I have checked the APN settings and it is setup up as it should be. The phone connects to network but somehow the browser is not getting any data.

I even unrooted my phone with an RUU (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed) and data worked. Then I rooted with Unrevoked and flashed GingerVillain 1.8.... still no change. I have even formated my sd card!!!! I'm out of ideas... Maybe my provider is blocking Gingerbread from going on the internet (SiMobil). Dunno...

I hope that you will understand my problem. And thanks for any help ;)
[Galaxy Tab General] Modiiify:
Problem

My Galaxy Tab Verizon model keeps getting stuck at the verizon boot animation and loops on and on without ever completely booting up.

Cause

Yesterday, i thought i might have a try at changing up the theme on my stock rom galaxy tab. I rooted the phone without any problems and followed the instructions to use metamorph to install the "red honeycomb" theme i found on this site. While applying the theme in metamorph, it got stuck while manipulating the 'framework-res.apk' file and rebooted my tab. After that it wouldnt completely boot. I didnt back up a single file. I have no experience in Android modifications. Please help me. Its a bit ironic that no longer than 10 minutes after voiding my warranty, my tab breaks.
