[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mmoran27:
This is a manufacturing defect

Not sure if it if fixed in later units but is easy to make the rings happen.

Just flip the tablet upside down for a few minutes.

Weight of battery presses on screen and causes the rings.

They go away on mine so I am not too concerned to swap it.

Just poor design on the part of Samsung so they can claim they are thinner than the iPad.

I do hope this can be fixed. A little more plastic on the back would make it stiffer and flex less.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tbcpn:
Not to (continue to) beat this issue to death, but I wouldn't be surprised if most of the 10.1 Tabs develop NR to one extent or another after a period of time / use, but the problem goes un-noticed. They are, in my experience with two units, not very obvious...until one knows they're there :D .
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gtab55:
nr

I called samsung about a week ago for my 32gb grey nr's. The lady told me they would send it to intelisol out of Fort Worth. She said the LCD panels were not installed correctly and the design for mine (July model) had to be replaced. She said they are making a new design but didn't tell me whether or not mine would get them.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Cpt Streamline:
Gtab55. Now that is interesting. I'm in the UK and they haven't heard about this problem.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Raistlin1:
These NR are so annoying. They were bad in the beginning and would not go away, then finally one day they were not there and would only come back from being upside down or in my backpack but would go away within 15 seconds. Now they are not going away again and of course because I made the decision to wait to send it in for repair until they figure out the problem and have the parts readily available.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] thering1975:
damn, just appeared on mine and one day over the store return date lol just my luck, had the transformer with blown speaker fault and now this lol
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Cpt Streamline:
Mine is going in for repair tomorrow so I will let you know what theuly say. Bad thing is if i took it to the shop four days ago I would have got a clean swop.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gtab55:
Really? They knew all about it on the phone. I talked to two people (one for diagnosing and the other for label information) and both knew 100% what i was talking about. I told them i had read online that other people were having the same problem with "an oil like sheen appearing on the screen a.k.a. newton rings" and they immediately knew it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Sprintina:
I have a 62B which is interesting considering that posters in this thread have mentioned either 61B or 63B (mine is a 16GB). Got it a couple weeks ago at a local Sprint store. I first saw this last weekend when at a bbq and it was warm and humid out on the deck. One of my nieces was playing with it and occasionally pushing hard on it to go to a next screen on her kid app, and that's when I saw this. :eek: I figured it was due to pushing too hard on it in the spot where the rings appeared. The spot did go away and *knock on wood* am hoping it doesn't come back. Just put an invisiShield on it earlier today and have it off so it can set.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] shaneneff:
My tab developed this problem over the weekend. I purchased it new from vzw in August. They returned it no questions asked. In fact they were out of stock on the 16 gb- and gave me a 32gb- instead. Here's hoping it doesn't show up again.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hedgy2136:
I've barely had mine a month and sent it to Samsung repair facility in Ft. Worth yesterday for the second time. The first time, an OTA firmware update bricked it. Almost immediately after getting it back, it developed the Newton Rings (btw, it's R62B). Also, I'm using the Samsung Book Cover. I's a really nice tab, but in the rush to get it to market, they didn't do enough testing.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mmoran27:
Samsung tech support is the worst

I used to have one of their infamous buzzing plasma displays.

I spent nearly 2 grand on it and when I called tech support it was same story.

It is not a known issue. Thousands of posts on avsforum and Internet but unknown to them. I offer to show them where but they are not authorized to read Internet forums.

Thousands of story's about sets getting repaired but still not known to them. After 3 unsuccessful repairs I demanded executive relations and finally got them to refund my money. Of course their refund does not pay for sales tax. So I have to eat it.

[Defy General] ryan8r:
Open reovery , goto system->overclock and set scaling_governor to 'conservative'. Try other options if still not resolved.
[Defy General] farsight73:
Mine would get pretty hot too whenever 3G is using.

What this scaling_governor to 'conservative' would actually do or help in this matter?
[Defy General] ryan8r:
It allocates clock frequencies more dynamically , rather than staying at 1ghz esp in 3G mode which causes heating. It is set to "ondemand" by default which is not so smart in handling the frequencies I think. Conservative saves me the heating by almost 6 degrees (from 42 to 36) without compromising on the performance.
[Defy General] ryan8r:
Almost forgot , after changing the scaling governor dont forget to "Save" the configuration and make sure youve enabled all modules.

[HTC Sensation] Dreamcatch:
Hi all!

I'm new to the wonderful world of Android (former WebOS-User), so please bare with me.

My brand-new Sensation seems to have a problem with the proximity sensor/light sensor: During a call, the screen will go off when I put the phone nexto to my ear, so far so good, but when I finish the call, the screen will go on for a second, then turn off and stay off. Pressing the power button won't do anything. The only thing that seems to work is to put the phone next to a strong light source and the lockscreen will come back on.

Is there anything I can do about this?

Thanks for your input!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Popenda:
Hi XDA

I need the original danish/nordic firmware version for my SGS II

I just called Samsung support in Denmark and got the information.

Danish firmware from samsung support.

Android 2.3.3

Build: gingerbread xwkdg

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-i9100xwkdg-cl174368 root@DELL102 #2

This is the one im looking for, or something similiar.

Short story about the device: I bought the SGS II from a guy who bought from 3 carrier in Denmark. After i bought it, i realized that the phone was 3 carrier locked and the 3 app, planet 3 app was on the phone. I wanted to debrand.

I did debrand with Odin 1.85 and used the sgs II firmware stock version I9100XWKDD_I9100XXKDH_I9100XEUKD1, which i downloaded from this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Popenda:
Thanks for reply.

the 3G Carrier stock firmware XWKE1 Danish was the one, that my phone came with.

and the XWKF4 from 3 is the latest that i did upgrade to when i used Kies in the first moment that i got the phone home.

After that i debranded with another firmware, the one i have mentioned in the first post.

maybe i should just use the one I9100XWKDD_I9100XXKDH_I9100XEUKD1 i have now on the phone this is the first firmware in the thread and is also a uk firmware, but this one have danish language in it and is not a 3 carrier locked firmware. :-D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashishvirmani:
Ok, so i froze few apps through TB to save on battery. (like Buddies now,Wifi sharing, Reading hub, Samsung apps etc.). And then I installed OS monitor from the market to monitor the processes running. To my surprise, I see Buddies now and Samsung apps running at least once every 10-15 seconds. I have uninstalled Buddies now through TB as well. But the process still seems to be running.

Can anybody verify this. ? No wonder I am getting crappy battery life. I am on rooted stock rom.

Is it that i have not frozen some associated apps which is leading to this ?

Cheers

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linuxmonkey2011:
Have you rebooted your device?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
You should only freeze those which causes wake from deep sleep. You need to see what apps/processes are running on background with the help of application Better Battery Stats and see under Partial Wakelocks. I, for myself have frozen nothing because I don't have anything which causes any major wakes.

Besides, if you are on KF3 then there shouldn't be any Wifi sharing problem. Also Samsung app also doesn't involve in wake situations.

Regards.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonny68:
I have pretty much frozen all Samsung bloatware that is ok to freeze and battery life is vastly superior now compared to what it was beforehand, i also froze Maps as i don't use it much and some other apps i don't use much if i need to use them it takes a few seconds to defrost them and there you go.:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Roosendaal:
I am on KF3 and the only battery eating thing has been:

"Software Update Service (com.wssyncmldm)"

So I froze it and presto twice the battery life of what I had before.

I sometimes use MAPS with Lattitude. But when I am done I explicitly log out of lattitude, or out goes the power.... as it will keep running in the background.

BTW I use the FREE Anttek App manager to freeze stuf, works great!

Thanks linux monkey, rebooting solved the issue, didnot know you need to reboot after freezing for it to take effect.

Look for 0x000083b7.dat.png into shared.m10 file. If its not there then m10editor is not decoding m10 file properly. People are already facing this issue while decompiling m10 files of 2.3.5 base ROMs. This tool needs a fix.

Cool, thanks, but i don't see how i'm gonna make this compatible with the emulator in the windows mobile SDK? have you got any more pointers on how to do that?
[Windows Mobile] Stephen:
My kitchen is designed to allow you to build the rom the way you want it. It then outputs the rom as a .nbh file that allows you to flash to the phone. Your emulator sounds interesting.

You may be able to use the .nbh file and then read that into your emulator.
[Windows Mobile] M3PH:
Nope, can't do that. i tried it with a copy of NRGZ28's energy rom. It has to be a .bin or .nb0 file.

Now i did some reading while i was writing this and it turns out a .nb0 file is the same as the old school .nb rom dump files i just need to figure out how to convert an nbh to a nb0 file

Thoughts?

*edit*

found a tool called nbhtool by dutty that should do it

*edit 2*

dutty's tool didn't do it but i did find this tool by Da_G. The problem is i still get invalid image errors from the sdk emulator. I have searched but not found any answers so i'm a little lost.

Any ideas, guys?
[Windows Mobile] ypsmav:
Hi,

Can you post here an nb0 that works on the emulator?

we can try to import on our kitchens and check if we can rebuild it with sense.

If we can make it works, we can save a lot of time of 'flashing' when testing changes.
[Windows Mobile] M3PH:
The files in the emulator are actually .bin files but i gather that internally they are the same format. They are also 96mb in size so it's gonna take a while to upload to hotfile. I'll post back when i have a link for you.

Thanks for all the effort btw. I really do appreciated it.

[Windows Mobile] raving_nanza:
HTCRIE (htc rom image editor) can extract the OS.nb from a .NBH file..

can you just rename the .nb to .nb0 if they are the same?

Ok i've got osbuilder. Had a quick read of the manual. Now what? do i need the sys/xip for a build? i am a complete noob at this so lots of help would be appreciated.

I've just tried to open an emulator image from the windows mobile 6 sdk with HTCRIE and got an invalid file format error. This is starting to become extremely frustrating. Especially as i can find any information on the actual format of the emulator bin files.

Did any of you guys get any luck with the file i provided? Coz i'm really stuck!

ramp_up_step

ramp_down_step

For the lagfree governor I'm curious about the following:

sampling_rate_max

sampling_rate

sampling_down_factor

freq_step_down

My last question would be:

Why does this kernel go horribly unstable as soon as a I mess with any of the smartass values. I've screwed with these on other kernels with no problem and no matter what I do, any adjustment to the smartass gov values yields a completely unstable device.
