[Galaxy S II General] drm111:
Yeah whites on the phone are definitely blue, but I'm convinced that the extra blue tint when tilting the phone isn't the screen but rather the glass, it's hard to explain, maybe I'm wrong, but thats definitely what my current one looks like :)

It's not a QLED, it's definitely a SAMOLED+. The response time of 0.01ms is marketing rubbish calculated in a best case scenario. And since we don't know if Samsung tested GTG, BTB, or grey rise/fall or black rise/fall then the figure of 0.01ms means nothing. If they were testing Grey rise, then yes, 0.01ms is probably not far off. If they're testing BTB/Black to Black (which they should) It's way off as the BTB time is around 6-8ms, and the GTG/Grey to Grey time is around 4-6ms (most monitors specs quote GTG)
[Galaxy S II General] r_a_c:
I don't see much color shift. The only thing is that this blue comes over it when viewed from sharp angles. And in my case this is not the screen, but some coating over the screen or on the glass. I know this because when I look at the screen while it is turned off in a lightly enviroment, and playing with the angles and reflecting in the light, I can see something blue ish too, so it comes from there. But I don't know what is is, as it seems some phones don't have it or less than others.

Sometimes I also think many people who complain abouth blue ish screen when looking straight on top of it have the "automatic screen power adjustment" on. This should be checked OUT! When I used my phone the first 2 hours I wasn't that impressed, as people said the screen was very good. I searched some options and this option ruins the screen. It seems that some stock have it checked on arrival and some don't.
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
The amoled and super amoled screens on the nexus one and galaxy s had normal response time and none of the ghosting issues that I can see. Honestly I think the new amoled plus just has these traits because its newer and maybe different manufacturing methods for the new pixel layout.
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
hey, so are you saying you have both samsung galaxy S and galaxy S2 and u can see that S2 blurrs in motion and normal galaxy s doesnt?
[Galaxy S II General] Currykiev:
I know it pissed you off drm111 when someone had a go at you because s/he percieved this thread as moaning/ complaining but....

Unfortunately what you started as a legitimate issue is getting silly. Sure the general ownership of this phone doesn't care if web pages show ghosting while scrolling (as most people can't see it when it matters, in videos/games) but it IS there.

However, when people start getting annoyed that the display shows a blue tint (which i know is caused by glare off the glass screen) at extreme angles then i seriously don't know what is expected. It's a phone people. What real life situation is going to occur when you need to see perfect colours at an accute angle on a phone?

Everyone has a different expectation when it comes to a phone display..... some people just expect miracles.

P.s. I just want to clarify that this is purely a frustrated post. It's a phone, not you're high end screen/ monitor.

P.p.s. Again, this is nothing against you drm111. I just feel the post is being derailed by people that have no clue about displays. I'm not saying i do but the original post was informed with technical backup.
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
No I don't have the galaxy s2 to compare, but I see no ghosting on the old ones with white text on black background or vice versa. Based on this thread it seems like its very bad on this new screen.
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
well yes and no, it is horrible for an OLED screen to blurr like that, its ok though compared to an lcd, which is why the OP and me included are mad at the phone, i was really hoping for some motion blurr free phone for gaming...

Oh and also, do you know how to spot blurring on ur screen? can u see it easelly on any lcd?
[Galaxy S II General] Chalup:
4 replacements? Maybe some of this is in your head... how could you possibly computer 6ms response time by looking at the screen? It just isn't possible. Also, while scrolling, both hardware and software would be responsible for any delay.

Anyways, good luck.
[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
+1.

There are clearly some people with genuine issues with their phones but I feel some people just expect an unrealistic level of absolute perfection. The blue tint at an acute angle is an example of this. I have just turned my phone on a white screen and checked this out and have a slight blue tint at the very edge of the screen still being visible. Do I care? Of course not, when am I ever going to use the phone in this way?

And as for the pixel response, I have checked it out and there is a slight ghosting. Again, I don't really give a s**t but each to their own.
[Galaxy S II General] gvoima:
It's not the glare of the glass, it's the amoled technology. Blue decrades faster on amoled over time and therefore it's the most strongest colour at start. It will even out.
[Galaxy S II General] r_a_c:
Then why can I see something bleu ish when the screen is turned off. Whe i reflect it in light and play with the angle i can see some blue (maybe coating).
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Big +1

I lived through the launch of the LG G2X, it barely functioned as a phone. LCD screen bleeds, random reboots (some in-call), occasional hard resets, Wi-Fi and cell data conflicts, loss of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi profiles, etc. The O2X/G2X have been out for six months now and LG still hasn't fixed it.

Comparing those issues against what we're experiencing makes screen tint, .5 second home screen delay and the like seem like nirvana. Let's see what the front page of the Sensation board looks like in a few weeks. Any comparisons should be against other recently released high-end dual-core phones not utopia.
[Galaxy S II General] kpoyias96:
I 've been trying for the past couple of minutes to spot all these issues mentioned and I really can't see any sign of ghosting or blueish whites(whatever).. Good for me I guess..:cool:
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
IF you can see the exact tone of blue when the screen is off then:

Yes i bet its that dreadish anti glare coating they use similar to what nokia n8 has...

Sure its awsome for sunlight conditions, but i hate the unreal effect on the screen xD

Im a bit happier if its actually the anti glare and not the screen at fault, however the response time horrible lcd like timing is still yet to be resolved...

For me an "OLED" with LCD response time is not even worth the fuss, which i again repeat, i very much doubt this is a proper OLED screen.
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
to know if youre looking at it properly, i can help you out with the response time.

IF you have an LCD monitor and a pc, turn it on and try to move a window with text left and right at lets say 0.5meeter per second, you will notice that even though your eyes are focused on it, the text is blurry and almost impossible to read,

Now that you know how to look for it, try the same on the phone again, if you cant see the LCD blurring then youre not doing the test properly.
[Galaxy S II General] gvoima:
I tested it inside and outside in direct sunlight and I didn't notice any blue on my screen in an angle or directly looking into it while the screen was off?

But I do have a blue hue while watching white shades from an angle on this screen.

Could be the oleophobic coating or the gorilla glass itself, but I didn't see it with the screen off.
[Galaxy S II General] robin73.:
You clearly don't know what you are talking about when you mention the blue screen. I had to return mine also because of this and it wasn't at all "a slight blue tint at an angle". That's only with the normal ones that I've seen a lot in the stores at displays and that didn't bother me at all. If you could even notice it there at all. That would have been perfect. But compared to my galaxy s1 it was just ridiculous. And yes I tried all possible screen settings. Some screens have this and some screens just don't.

When you don't have a problem with your screen then that is good for you but it doesn't mean that problem doesn't exist with some screens.
[Galaxy S II General] ranwej:
Yes, that can be a blue tint from antireflex coating...that's normal effect on watches with antireflex - blue tint when you are looking from an angle (mostly visible on sunlight).
[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
Or perhaps I do know what I'm talking about and your expectations are completely unrealistic? Let me ask you, are whites blue when you look at the screen directly, or at the angles which you use everyday? If yes you have a point and it's a defective unit. However, if you have to turn the screen to an angle which you would never use in normal circumstances in order to see this blue I can't see the issue. I suspect for most people complaining about this issue it's the latter.
[Galaxy S II General] daivik:
Relating to this blue tint. I'd rather have a blue tint, because it's a very neutral colour, rather than a yellow-y tint which I've seen on some phones.
[Galaxy S II General] godutch:
I can see what you mean but I am not convinced it is due to high pixel response time but rather the effect of some scrolling lag
[Galaxy S II General] robin73.:
Yes mine was also blue when looking directly at it, and again I had the chance to compare it with a demo unit in the store, and that screen was just gorgeous, no problems whatsoever.
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
hmmmm, so whats the veredict then?
[Galaxy S II General] might277:
I want to ask u a question. How can u measure the response time of the galaxy s2 screen is 6-8ms. Is there any tool or app to do this test and give us the result in number? I am looking for a tool or app to do this. Thank u
[Galaxy S II General] nasaprinsloo:
Sorry for posting here but mayne you can help. I just got my screen replaced by a local oke. And after a couple of hrs usage. I can already see my keyboard burned into the display (white background whatever) you can see the keyboard and textbox over the color) is it just a dud or something else wrong with the phone itself?
[General Questions and Answers] Brucil:
In a few months it will be my birthday and I have decided I want something phone/tablet-like. After picking Android over IOS I am now faced with a new problem. Do I either:

Go for a Samsung Galaxy S 2, with its speed and style. Also the convenience of having all of my social and media-ness in the one device.

Or

Go for An Asus Transformer with its snazzy 3.1 Honeycomb goodness and then get a fairly decent Orange San Francisco to tether it to 3G. This option has the inconvenience of having 2 devices- 1 of which is *slightly* to big to fit in my pockets but also gives me the safety of not dropping my very expensive phone if Im out with friends.

The Samsung is £510 and the total of the Asus and the SF is £475/£530 (keyboard dependant) so cost isnt really an issue. I just wanted people's oppinoins of which option seems better; any help would be apreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 2488575:
This is a tough question and every person is different. I currently have an xperia play. So I would take the tablet but assuming I have a flip phone and faced with that offer I would take the tablet and the san fransisco.

But again it all depends on the user. Do you have a good laptop? If you do then just get the SGS II.
[General Questions and Answers] Brucil:
Yeah my laptop is a high-end Dell Inspiron 15R.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wkndracr:
My mom has a NC that she loves but is unhappy with the BN market. I was planning on rooting with CWM and the latest Manual Nooter, mainly to get her access to the market and the Google apps. Is this the easiest way to do this? I'm not interested in installing any ROMs or anything like that. I basically just want it to operate like it does now with access to the full Android market. Also, is it necessary back up the stock image before rooting? I dont want to brick this thing on her, I've played around with seem editing and such on my old phones in the past, but am new to Android rooting. Will CWM give me the option to backup. Thanks.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakeg:
Yes, that would work fine. ManualRooter 4.5.6 is pretty straight-forward, just follow the instructions step-by-step and you'll be fine.

I would suggest doing a nandroid backup just in case, and CWM has that capability.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garoto1973:
Go for it. Manual Nooter quick n easy. While you are at it I recommend you add the OC 1.1mhz kernel + SetCPU app from the market, it really transforms your Nook, transitions become smooth, gets rid of all the choppiness without major battery loss.

Still dont have full market visibility though, but I seem to get most apps I want. Angry birds are all visible and free ;)

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stolly23:
OK, don't kill me. New here, just got my Gtab today. I have read a lot and a lot and a lot. Maybe too much. I have not touched my tab yet. Can I start following the easy steps to adding a new ROM, or do I need to do something to the tab first? It looks like vegan is the one to use, but exactly what file is it that I use? I am tech savy, but very new to doing these types of things. Sorry for asking such a noob question. But my brain is in overload right now.

Thanks

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Just follow the instructions on the vegan thread. You will find the files you need there ;-)

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stolly23:
I was ready to roll, but what got me thinking was the bootloader thread. Would that apply to me?

Thanks for the reply
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bit Banger:
Make sure you know which version android you are on and what bootloader you have. There is a 1.1 and a 1.2 dev branch and I think it makes a big difference. I'm still on 1.1 Vegan 5.1. Froyo and happy with that. Newer builds use different boot loader, make sure you read instructions thoroughly before you flash device.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosser2:
Check your version in the settings about tablet screen. Most likely you will have a 1.1 based kernel. So to answer your question, No, it does not apply to you.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bit Banger:
Look under system and find "about device". Android version is listed there.

Ok, so I just powered up for the first time. Adroid OS 2.2, Tap 1.1-3389. BUT, to really make things worse, I think I have a dead pixel in the display. CRAP
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stolly23:
Well wifey says the pixel does not bother her, So I will go ahead and get the ROM going. Is the Vegan 5.1.1 the correct version?

Thanks again
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
Yes, vegan 5.1.1 is a 1.1 based Rom, you'll be fine with it. HOWEVER, I do suggest that you at least update to 3588. It's still a 1.1 based Rom so flashing vegan 5.1.1 will be the same. it's just a newer version, and useful in case you want ot go to the 1.2 rom's later on.

HOWEVER, me, personally, since you're stock, I would update to 3588, theen flash teh stock 4349, then flash Brilliant Corners (it's just a 1.2 bootloader port of Vegan 5.1.1) That way, if you want to ever get on the honeycomb bandwagon when all the wrinkles are ironed out, you're already on the 1.2 bootloader.

I WAS running Vegan 5.1.1, and I liked it, don't ge tme wrong. I decided to take the plunge and get to the 1.2 bootloader, since most roms will be going that direction in the future anyway. It was more work to undo what I had already done, just to get back to where you are starting from, so you are already halfway there.

I'm not allowed to post a link to another forum that contains the files and information for Brilliant Corners, but if you use some googling skills, I'm sure you can find it. The developer that was part of Vegan 5.1.1, and created TNT lite, and is currently working on the Honeycomb port, switched most 1.1 roms over to the 1.2 bootloader, including Brilliant Corners.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkmagu:
I'm new to all this rooting as well what helped me was some of the video tutorials on youtube. It helps to see something being done before you do it. I have Vegan-tabs 7.0.0 running on mine.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kidserious:
The only kernel other than the one jt included in cm7 that is compatible is nemesis2all's OTB 1.5 kernel. I'm assuming you like PBJ time because of the undervolt. With OTB kernels from nemesis2all you can run a customized undervolt with the voltage control app. You should try it. :)

Yep, that would be the reasoning. I will give it a shot. Thanks KS.

[Nook Color General] cameraz:
Sorry to be such a noob, but can somebody explain to me the difference between a stable vs. nightly build when it comes to CM7?

Which is better to put on an SD card for the purpose of running CM7?

Also, who is updating these files and testing them before they are posted?

Thanks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Nevermind, folks. I got the answers here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version
[Nook Color General] LBN1:
Nightly builds have updates almost daily, so they have the latest upgrades but occasionally might have a hangup. Stable builds are updated every few weeks (maybe), but as their name implies, are considered more stable as they then incorporate most of the nightly upgrades into one. Both are released by the CM team.

The nightly builds have slightly better battery life than the last stable, and both are pretty solid as a daily driver. There were reported problems in flashing back and forth, so best bet is to pick one path and follow that. If you don't think you want to flash that often, choose stable.

Hi!

I installed the VNC Server app (droid VNC server) and I am not trying to connect to it over USB.

I've run the adb commands:

adb forward tcp:5801 tcp:5801
adb forward tcp:5901 tcp:5901

I can bring up the web based interface by connecting to http:\\localhost:5801 but the vnc java application (or RealVNC) can't connect to my phone. I have a I5800, running Lestatious 1.8 with Fugomod 2.2 OC.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antiskunk:
I know this seems like an odd question, but would it be possible to install Chrome OS on a Honeycomb tablet?

Does Chrome OS even support ARM, or is it x86 only?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConstantineXVI:
Google's at least announced their intent to have an ARM version of ChromeOS. Not sure if there's actually code in Chromium for it yet or not, but it was said at IO that it's definitely in the cards. Being able to run it on the Transformer would then only depend on being able to boot another OS, which I haven't read if that problem's been cracked yet.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
First and foremost, I completely understand the battery reporting is inaccurate.

I, like most of the G2x users, have occasionally experienced excellent battery life and at other times barely lasted 5 hours. We all know this has to do with the LG battery drivers. I think I may have found a potential stop-gap fix though.

Another preface:I'm running CM7 nightlies.

Now, using SET CPU you can set a screen off profile that will underclock the cpu to be more efficient and save battery life, anyone worth their salt knows that. The other aspect of this that I have been doing is underclocking the CPU during normal usage. With min set at 312 and max at 760, I've gone 4 hrs and 13 minutes with 96% left. Even underclocked, this phone performs. The only issue I've noticed is a little bit of buggery with the lockscreen reactivating but honestly it's worth it to me to have a phone that lasts.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stefan.buddle:
The issue is with the battery drivers, nothing else, your "fix" are just ways to increase battery life
