[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biyobe:
So I installed BAMF this morning and I don't think everything installed as it should have, or am I missing steps?

The notification bar doesn't show recent apps, but it doesn't show any of the settings stuff like the photo does

Not all of the Verizon bloatware disappeared. Still have Let's Golf 2 and most the Vcast apps,

HTC stock wideget still available

No multiple reboot options
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbisch:
Did you wipe data/cache before flashing the ROM? If not, boot into Recovery and do that. If that doesn't fix it then I would try redownloading and reflashing it.

Much appreciated Kyojin! But could you port these stock static wallpapers in original size?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] neilr.xda:
Many thanks Kyojin. It is extremely irritating to do an upgrade and find your chosen wallpaper & font have gone. Thanks to you the wallpaper is sorted.

Thanks again
[Nook Color General] LakerPaul:
The following apps fail installation (Amazon / Market / Ti Backup) after 1.2 update and Manual root. Did anyone get any of these to install and run?

All Angry Birds

NBA Gametime

Paradise Island

Also, new in the market:

HBO Go
[Nook Color General] jpeg42:
Be sure to follow these instructions:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13298075&postcount=92

As of right now, some apps like Angry Birds will only install WITHOUT the SD card in, while some of them require the SD card.
[Nook Color General] RageAgain:
Angry Birds...

I got Angry Birds, Seasons, and Rio to install, with the sd card in. I had followed the install instructions to the letter including the fix for the market, all that after I had upgraded using the signed modified keep cwm side load zip. When I first tried in the Market the install process went into downloading, but wasn't downloading anything just stuck on dowloading. After I canceled it out and tried again they all downloaded.

I had downloaded other apps before, and I had also restored apps - no data - from my Titanium backups. I had also downloaded apps from Slideme.

I used the Manual Nooter "manualnooter-4-4-28.zip". I also restored live wallpapers - I don't really care about the performance hit - but I can't get my favorite "Water" to work, even though it works on my Nookie Froyo, CM7, and HC!

Sigh...
[Nook Color General] Deltabear:
1.2 and Market

There have been several issues with Market in the 1.2 Nooter. The devs are working feverishly to get them resolved. HamNCheese seems to have found the solution, he's testing on a fresh install now and will post the fix once tested. Since it's been less than a week I'm looking forward to having everything up and running so soon!

Patience grasshopper... :) Good luck and have fun!
[Nook Color General] MAntonio:
Angry Birds Install Fix

So I finally got AngryBirds to install on my 1.2 Manual Nootered nook.

1) Open Marketplace.

2) From the market, install your favorite file browser (mine is ES File Explorer).

3) Install Amazon app store.

4) Download Angry birds from Amazon app store. When the download is done, but before the install starts, exit the app store.

5) In the file explorer, go to /sdcard/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/cache.

6) Copy the desired APK file (it was vnz57060.apk for me) over to the nook internal drive (note: file can't be moved, but it can be copied).

7) Remove the SD card from the nook.

8) Install AngryBirds by navigating to the app in your file browser and clicking on it.

9) Play.

It's a bit round about, but it gets around the issue of needing an SD card to download, but then not being able to install with an SD card in the device.

Good luck all!
[Nook Color General] iDidItAll4theNookie:
I can confirm that this works, as it is how I got all my Amazon apps to install. Not too bad once you get the hang of it.
[Nook Color General] LakerPaul:
I managed to get my Angry birds installed by unzipping my Ti backup and using adb install. I guess adb disables enough of the SD card processes.

Can't wait til I can get a couple of new apps from the marketplace to install.
[Nook Color General] andream2g:
Manual Nooter - Angry Birds install

I tried these methods on my NC ML 4.5 install (from NC Development page GabrialDestruir)

Known Issues and Solutions:

"Download Unsuccessful" on Market v1.82

Having an SDCard in the slot fixes this.

Installation Error - Unknown Reason -18

Remove SDCard.

Find in Market and select for Install - This will Fail "Download Unsuccessful"

Using a File Manager to navigate to /cache/downloadnull

Select the download with the Angry Birds (or other app) Icon and install manually.

Reinsert SDCard---------

Didn't work for me even though the download shows up in ROM manager it will not install either with or without the SD inserted.

Could install it via Dropbox though. Anyone have any suggestions?
[Nook Color General] markawashington:
I used mybackup pro from last auto noot (1.1) to install no problems with all my games being install along with data .
[Nook Color General] andream2g:
I got Angry Birds to install via Dropbox and then used my back-up from 1.1 to get all the scores back and data, as well. It just buggs me that I can't get it to install via Market at all.
[Nook Color General] anymoose:
Copy the .apk in /cache/downloadnull, navigate up to /media folder, paste there, and touch to install.
[Nook Color General] aaplus12:
I also confirm that angybirds and few other apps that fail to install from the market can be easily installed via adb.

For this to work you need to have adb installed on your computer. In NookColor Tools go to development and check "USB Debugging"

Attach Your nook to your computer and open adb

Command:

adb install <path to apk file>

I hope this helps. Thanks to LakerPaul for trying this out.

Cheers
[Nook Color General] giedrys:
Can someone just release the damn proper autonooter for 1.2? Will donate to developer.

I'm tired of keeping my 1.1 NC in wi-fi off mode.

Get the build.prop file and apply it, that will keep the update from happening.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ski_power:
Okay, I know we have lots of threads with people posting pictures of their bleed screen. I want to request one member atleast who does NOT have bleed to post a picture of his screen here. I personally am getting a second G2x and since this is like my first phone in over 5 years, I'd like to have a picture ready for comparison when I get my replacement.

You could use this as a test page.

http://i.imgur.com/c4rkX.png

Alternatively, telekNesis has made a wonderful app for this exact purpose. Use that.

http://teleknesis.net/Android/APKs/ScreenBleedTest.apk

I've attached 2 images of my screen. One from far away, and one in close up. The camera brightness gets wonky when its far away, so a closeup is most recommended, and I'd like to compare this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dagaetch:
I would but my phone is the only camera I have at work :p

can post one in a couple hours
[T-Mobile LG G2x] legoman666:
EDIT: See new pic
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
Thanks for the picture. But:

1. You are not in a dark room

2. your status bar is there.

We can't do an accurate comparison like that
[T-Mobile LG G2x] teleknEsis:
Better yet, they can use this app I threw together

http://teleknesis.net/Android/APKs/ScreenBleedTest.apk
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ski_power:
Thanks for the image. This looks like a very good one to compare against.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Maris_:
OK. sorry ... was just trying to help. Removed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] daveid:
Don't want to come off as an ass, but if you think a screenshot will show any display problems you need to think a little harder.

Thanks for trying to help Maris_
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thisisnitwit:
I don't mind coming off as an ass...this guy can't be for real.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xShadoWxDrifTx:
lol, @ screenshot, if only everything looked that black :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Evofusion:
This made me lol thanks

I will post a picture of mine later I think I have minimal bleed but ill let you guys decide
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sstang2006:
Here is mine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
thanks for jumping in and trying to help..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
are you bothered by that or are you keeping?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ski_power:
Is that at maximum brightness? Because, I find that to be absolutely fine. /jealous

My replacement is on its way and I think this is the image that I'm going to use to compare. Thanks again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
looks like default setting. still doesnt look bad.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dkb218:
Really? I have yet to see a high quality phone without it. Does it take away from your viewing pleasure in some way?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
my nexus s or mytouch 4g didnt have it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
Its not fair to compare the Nexus Ss' SAMOLED screen to a TFT. Are you reasonably sure that at full brightness your mytouch 4g had zero leakage? I generally expect a minimum amount of leakage, but zero is very hard for me to wrap my head around, especially because it's an LCD.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
It may/may not take away from my viewing pleasure, but it is a manufacturing defect/QC QA defect. A defect is a defect, and I think we'd be all but helping them by finding the problem early. What if screen bleed today leads to something even worse down the line. Like I mentioned in my first post this is my new phone in almost 5 years and I fully intended to keep this phone for quite sometime.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xguntherc:
yea check out my MT4G left, and my G2x right.. you could argue that there is a tiny, tiny bit of it on top left of my MyTouch4G, but really. it is barely noticeable and the G2x's are all very noticeable. even in a lit room. Just play the Nvidia movie in gallery and you will see it leak through the tops
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
Oh ok so it's YOUR image floating around online when I google g2x screen bleed :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sstang2006:
Thats automatic brightness.

Yes, I'm keeping it. This is my replacement, the first one had worst bleeding plus reboots all the time. I'm happy with it, already 5 days and no reboots.

Build date 04/07/11
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
You might want to increase the brightness to full and check again. When the phone with auto brightness is taken to a dark room, the brightness reduces.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
video of my 2 G2x's on auto birghtness in a dark room still shows it pretty bad... and then on 100% its ugly!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCW-014m33c
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sstang2006:
OK, here is a more detailed test.

I used Brightness Level app to set brightness levels to 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%.

I used ScreenBleedTest app for full blackness.

And I used Stylus Tough-6020 to take pictures in dark room (flash off)

Here are the results, starting by 0% brightness.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] suhailtheboss:
just wanted to throw this pic in here as well

compares my HD2/g2x&nexusone all at 100% brightness

obviously nexus one screen is not going to have any, but even just compared to the HD2 it's pretty bad.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bighulk666:
Mine...

#1: At auto brightness

#2: at max brightness

From what i've been reading, i'm gunna be happy with what I have, rather then return it and get something much worse.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] klmsu19:
Ok but here's one misconception. No one (at least who is smart or knows anything about smartphones) is going to be running their backlight at 100%, especially in the dark. this is why the auto-brightness turns the brightness down in the dark, because you don't need it cranked up in a dark room for it to be visible. Besides the fact 100% brightness would kill the battery in no time.

I real-life test is the level you normally keep your backlight, not what if I crank it up to a level I'll never use.

Complaining what it looks like at 100% brightness is being picky for the sake of being picky if you're never going to run 100% brightness, especially in the dark at that. If it's that bad at 25-50% then there's a legitimate gripe.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
LOL my phone on half brightness you can see it... and if you knew anything about smart phones you would know that auto brightness kills battery almost as much as 100%
[T-Mobile LG G2x] klmsu19:
I know plenty, and never said to use auto-brightness. If you actually read, I said that is why auto-brightness turns down the screen in the dark, because you don't need it at 100% ever, especially in the dark. I never advocated the use of auto-brightness what so ever.

And anyone who knows anything doesn't keep the brightness at 100% all the time and last 1/2 a day of use.

The point was the bleed is not half the grip people make it to be at a reasonable level where they would use it. Comparing at 100% is meaningless as that is not normal use. It's like saying your car gets bad gas mileage on a race track when you would never really do that; the indicator is normal driving/usage habits.

Taking something to the limits to show how bad it is, is no indicator of every day performance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
But if you look at my video or half these peoples pictures you'll see that its affecting dim backlighting...... not just @ 100% I use my phone at 100% brightness most of the time while I'm working or outside because you can't see the screen in bright light..... in a dark room I use half brightness and it is noticeable so if I'm gonna deal with a horribly manufactured screen I want something done . .. Google back light bleeding... it gets worse over time......... so if my phones gonna look like ass in 8 months I want a new one....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
+1

bleed is visible on any brightness level, and i've seen a bunch of these phones now
[T-Mobile LG G2x] miclflores:
The question I have is if this is a warranty issue. I know I have 30 days to return/exchange the device if I don't want it. But if after the 30 days the bleeding becomes unbearable will it be covered under the 1 year warranty?

I have some bleeding which I can deal with for now. Phone works great and not sure I want to exchange it and risk getting one with lots of reboots and even worse bleed.

Any insight on the warranty issue would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
according to all the reps i talked to from tmobile it is an issue and will be addressed accordingly.... they said the warranty will cover the bleeding to me... and posted it on my account memos id call them to make sure they put a note in your account that you have a bleeding screen that isnt as bad but if it gets worse you would like to WARRANTY exchange it for a refubished phone if it ever gets worse
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GentMAB:
Here is mind let me know how it is....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumaaneface:
looks like mine that i have now after 3 returns....thats good
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
Am I the only one who thinks our backlight is brighter than most other LCD phones? I compared mine to my sister's MyTouch4G at 100% for both, and mine seemed much brighter.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
i compared my two g2x's to my gf's lg vortex and my back light is alot brighter than hers... and also compared it to a iphone 4 and a droid x.... much brighter
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
Doesn't our phone have an IPS panel? Does that have anything to do with the bleed? I mean, even the iPad2 has some backlight bleed.

Yes, our display is brighter than a lot others, but my worry here is if it gets worse with time?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] samomamo:
It does get worse over time. I got mine week ago it had bleed from top 2 corners and now its from top middle bottom sides and I got a dead pixel also all this in a week trust me I really wanted to keep the phone just because it was very fast and overlooking the screen bleed but I can't anymore its getting to look like fast phone with **** old screen that's in a week
[T-Mobile LG G2x] VICosPhi:
LOL... I like the happy face on Nexus one
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andonnguyen:
Mine looks like yours at 100%. I didn't even notice I had "backlight bleed" until I found this thread. I've always had my display set at "auto brightness," which is probably the most logical and common thing to do on a smartphone, regardless of screen type. I think it's kind of ridiculous that people are going crazy over this. What are the chances of you staring at your screen at 100% brightness in a pitch black room with nothing but black on your screen for an extended period of time? With an LCD there is going to be noticeable light when the screen is set to full brightness, it comes with the territory of having this type of screen, especially one with a light source as bright as the one on the G2X. LCD's in general have black levels that suck when brightness is turned too high (saw this on my S-LCD nexus one, and numerous LCD tvs; people see it on their ipads and iphones). It probably boils down to matter of preference, but personally I don't think returning the phone 10 times will fix it, unless you return the phone and get a different phone with a SAMOLED screen :D

Just for fun, backlight bleed on a white ipad2 :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
I've heard that the backlight bleed gets worse over time
[T-Mobile LG G2x] abowmedia:
What you're not realizing is its not just on black screens at Max brightness. I'm seeing these spots over everything darker than pure white. And in 4 of the 10 I've went through had brown stains on the screen when on anything, and one was completely tinted yellow. Were making a big deal because this a $500 "superphone" with sub-par quality control. If you don't throw it in the companies face, they will think its ok to sell overpriced junk.

And I fight for this one specifically because its the only vanilla android dual core phone for at leather the next 6 months.

Accept crap if you want, I personally demand that companies provide quality, its not like this is $20 flip phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andonnguyen:
yikesssssssssssssssssssssssss!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
After five I'd have suggested throwing in the towel and getting a Sensation or SGS2. The reality is that the screen on the G2X in its current form is subject to bleed and occasionally other issues. There are probably 100,000+ sitting in LG or T-Mobile warehouses. If indeed there's a modification made we won't see it for months as they're not going to toss 100,000 phones and the majority of non-XDA customers probably don't notice or care. I think it's time to admit defeat Norma Rae and choose another phone.

Mine bleeds some in the top corners but I don't typically use my phone at 100% brightness in a dark room so it doesn't bother me. The more I use the phone the less likely I am to classify it as a "superphone." When the Sensation and/or SGS2 come out I'm most likely moving on because they have better screens, equal or better processors, and a bunch of features the G2X doesn't. And I use my phone globally for business so I don't run cooked ROM's because they're too wonky when roaming so the "G2X is easy to mod" doesn't matter to me (and probably 90% of the people that buy it).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Rayvenhawk:
I have mine at 100% at all times and can get 15hrs with moderate use.

Besides anyone who knows anything puts theirs at 100% in the dark for those "special" videos. Lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dmtaub:
I might actually be a lucky one. I don't think I have any screen bleed. Ill post a picture up when I get home tonight.

Everyone can give me their two cents.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
I run my G2x at 100% all day. I've always ran my screen brightness at 100%.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] himmelhauk:
I agree! Most might find it to be quite trivial, and sure it is a small issue, but as you say, we're dropping a considerable amount of cash on this phone, the least they can do is provide us with one that doesn't suffer from these issues straight out of the box!

To those saying it's only really noticeable on 100% brightness, that is false. I keep my brightness just barely above the lowest it can go, and still I can see the backlight bleed, so to me that is ridiculous. Even the rep at T-Mobile knows it's a major problem with this phone as he himself has one...and he said it basically comes down to if you can accept having the bleeding on there or not, if not then they'll gladly do a warranty exchange. Unfortunately though, I'm on a waiting list for at least a week as customer service said they have none in stock, and I can't exchange mine at the store since it would be my 4th one. This one is the only time the problem is backlight bleed, the other times were for random freezes/reboots.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DYLANBOB:

Please try again....force close.) i press force close, but after 10 seconds the message appears again, i am just going round in circles, cannot get to settings to do a factory reset, taking battery out does not make any diff, soon as i reboot it starts again...help please
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msolus:
get into recovery mode.

turn phone off. press and hold home button + power button + volume up key. when the samsung logo appears wait a few seconds and release the power button (or the phone will just reset)

once in recovery mode use the vol. keys to get to factory reset/wipe and use home button to confirm.

The widgets appear to be working well on our phone, but i didn't post them because i still want to make sure they all work. . The apps are still AWOL. And yes i'm playing with them on a FroYo based ROM.

However the Live Wallpapers work extremely well...

and IMHO the ShockWave Wallpapers is the coolest i've seen yet.
