Turns out this is obviously an issue with my phone, and not the new kernels I have been using. All though it has only happened with Fserve's franco.Kernel.v19.3-gbs.v15 and franco.Kernel |.v19.4| 2.6.32.46. But the problem is the same between both of them, happens less often with v19.4. But rather than bother the kernel developers I will put a general post here. I'm sure that they already have their hands full, and I don't think it's a kernel issue anymore.

The issue:

My lockscreen keeps burning the image into my LCD when I put the screen to sleep. Always is the last image it was at when I shut it off, and it takes around 3-4 hours after flashing a kernel to start with the issue.

It's basically the same type of thing that happens if you leave a computer monitor on at the same screen for day or so, the image stays on the screen for a while because it has burned itself into the monitor.

I cannot take a Logcat as it is disabled in the franco kernel I am currently running. Current specs are in my signature.

Essentially I am trying to track down the cause of this issue, as it seems to happen across different setups, no matter the LCD sleep settings I set, and doesn't go away with lower overclock settings. But when I flash my phone back to OEM specs with KDZ updater it does not produce the problem at all.

It has to be software related because if it was my hardware, It would produce the same result when KDZ updated.

Anyone have this issue at any point? Any suggestions on how to fix it?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bigsupersquid:
I'm not sure how much use it'll be to you, but if it's actually a kernel issue, and not just an android problem, this might be useful:

instead of logcat you can use dmesg.

in a terminal app or adb shell:

dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt

if the /sdcard path isn't appropriate for your device, replace it with something accurate.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
No luck, not supported in this kernel. I return the message

dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt
klogctl: Function not implemented

Just returns an empty dmesg.txt file.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bigsupersquid:
gahhh, i'm sorry. thought that'd work for sure.

maybe adb bugreport?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
FOUND IT!!

Turns out the screen off animation in CM7 was the cause of my issues. For whatever reason, with the screen off animation disabled my screen no longer burns any images into the LCD. I have been burn free for 2 days now.

Weird. Oh well

EDIT: **** me it's back again, what the hell? This is truly a noggin scratcher of a problem here...

I have the bugreport:

Download the bugreport(report.txt)

Compiled through Terminal Emulator v1.0.29 and taken 5 min after screen burn was noticed.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Currently running franco.Kernel v19.3 CFS to see if the problem goes away, as I ran this kernel for a week with absolutely no issues.

Update: Logcat is working on v19.3 CFS version so I was able to take a look at what the phone was doing. Turns out the screen state is set to 0 when I turn it off, and it runs all the screen state off commands properly. But, with logcat not working on v19.4 CFS I am not able to compare notes. Going to look through the bugreports I have and see if there are any differences.

Aha! I have found something that might be of some help. In the battery history section of the bugreport, v19.3 does a Kernel wake_lock when turning the screen on and off, while v19.4 is doing just a wake_lock. They may be versions of the same thing, but maybe the difference in the process is what's causing my problems? I ran v19.3 for around 6 hours today and I had no issues with screen burning.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Well, after 8 hours of 19.3 CFS I still am facing the same screen burning problem. Nothing seems to be making the problem go away. My next step is going to KDZ flash my phone back to stock and run it like that for a day. If the problem persists I am taking it in to be serviced because it is definetly a hardware problem.

Update:

Day One of running stock V10V firmware, and no screen burning occurring at all. Going to keep it running like this for the rest of the week to see if anything will pop up. Maybe CM7 went on a fritz? I dunno, I'm no closer to finding the source, but it's looking like software right now.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Been running stock V10V software for more than a week, no symptoms of any type of screen burning. Definitely software related, I am going to begin flashing again tomorrow and see if anything turns up. Will report back if I find the issue again, as for whatever reason this could have just been an anomaly I have found in the custom ROM's and kernels.

On another note, It'll be nice to have this phone running fast again :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Okay, approximately 4 hours into CM7 with francokernel v19.4 BFS, I am experiencing the same LCD Screen burning issue. Nothing is making it go away in any settings. Going to try void forever and see if anything changes.

Download Bugreport HERE(log1.txt)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dancom96:
How does that happen? If the screen is not on, how could an image be burned onto it? Or is it not 'physically' burned on?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Not too sure, it's almost like the backlight LED turns off, leaving the lockscreen image there to burn into the LCD. Or maybe just a programming anomoly?

Either way, 2 hours into void forever's rom I am getting the problem once again (argh!!).

It only seems to do this with a custom ROM, the v10v firmware ran without any LCD issues whatsoever. Now why would it do that? I ran V10V rooted and clockworkmod recovery and no LCD issues. Only with a custom ROM.

MIUI-Gen71 v0.666 Suicidal Edition

This is apparently the answer to my problems. Since it is based off of CM7.1 6.6.1 it is not producing the LCD issue that I have been having with CM7.1 6.5.7.

Been running this ROM for about a day now. No lockscreen burning issues so far. Cross my fingers and hopefully the issue is gone.

Makes sense since the other roms I've tried were based off of 6.5.7. Could have been a CM7 issue in the first place.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hsingh1993:
i dont know it it is cm7 6.5.7 issue cuz i never experienced ur problem with this rom or rom based on 6.5.7
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
I'm working on the assumption that my problem is just an anomoly that I have come across. Searches returned nothing, and I was able to run 6.5.7 without a single issue for weeks, across different kernels. It just came out of nowhere, maybe it will still turn up in 6.6.1, but at this point only time will tell.

This thread is essentially a record of my findings over time to help anyone who has had this issue(there are a few, but not many) figure out where to turn on fixing the problem.

Took a bugreport in 6.6.1 MIUI just for anyone to look through and see if any differences turn up. I have yet to find something that points to the cause.

Download the bugreport(log3.txt)

UPDATE:

3 days in and nothing so far, seems to have been a problem in CM7 6.5.7. Haven't had a single bug since.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ert69:
Im also experiencing the lcd burn issue on cm7 6.5.7 with goldleaf kernel... doesnt happen on other kernels tho. Ive had this issue before with stock froyo when i got my phone. Since goldenleaf or whatever is based on stock kernel then i think it must be the kernels fault...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Wierd, I had the same trouble as soon as I tried fserve's kernel as well. Mind you it was 19.3 gbs v15 where it all began for me. But yet it went away when I flashed the phone back to stock with KDZ updater, but still came back after reflashing CM7 6.5.7 with franco's 19.4 kernel, and any other kernel after that, even the stock CM7 one. Even any ROM I used that is 6.5.7 based caused the problem to come back. CM7 6.6.1 seems to be the only answer for me at this point. Not sure what is causing the problem but it seems to be based from fserve's modded kernels, but yet it only manifests itself on a few number of devices. Is your O1 a P500 or a P500h?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ert69:
Mine is p500. I flashed v18b2 now. Gonna give it a couple of hours and see if the problem still exsists.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Let me know how it turns out.:cool:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ert69:
Nope. Still can see my lockscreen. I think it might be the roms fault as some have stated before. Plus, that kernel drained my batt like crazy so I went back to goldenleaf.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Were you not having the same trouble with goldleaf as well? It has to be the ROM because I am running the setup in my signature since Sunday. No issues at all. Something about 6.5.7 and fserve's kernel don't seem to mix for certain phones. I wonder what the difference is that causes it? I wish I knew more about Unix and Java so I could figure it out. Any developers out there with a little free time?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ert69:
Yeah, same prob w/ goldenleaf but at least the batt is excellent :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nikhil4186:
try taking a screenshot. if the ghost appears in it then its not image burn on the lcd
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
Tried that back when it started, the burned image did not show up on any screenshots. It was 100% burned into the LCD.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Alseid:
Sorry to bring up an old topic, but did anyone ever figure out how to fix it (beyond rom changes and whatnot).

If not, could someone advice me through this? I'm not very good at this to be honest.

I'm currently using Void #Forever r1.6.15, franco kernel v16.1.

Thank you in advance
[Optimus One, P500, V General] theanykey:
It's the kernel. Basically, it's turning off the backlight without turning off the screen.

It goes away if you use Sippolo's kernel. Decent performance and battery life, but you lose the ability to overclock and 3G is a little slower than a kernel built on Franco's.

If overclocking is a must, use one of the kernels listed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=901247

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mgs526:
First let me say, I have no ties with the developer of this app. I just want to support an app that has superb function and extreme potential.

Don't let the title fool you. I just started playing around with this app today and let me say, WOW. Not only is it a Boxee remote that works really well. It also has Navi-X on it. YOU DO NOT NEED A BOXEE BOX TO USE THE NAVI-X FUNCTION.

Navi-X is a streaming media scraper. It aggregates online content from several locations, and presents it to you in a very nice format. You can browse the selections and choose to either play on your Boxee Box, or on android itself. I have played a couple of movies on my Nook Color streaming for a couple different sources. They all worked very well.

There are several issues with this app however. You have to use another video player app to play the videos. I've tried rock player, but it had some issues pausing the stream and issues starting the stream. Vplayer worked just fine though. It takes some time to get the stream going, but once it starts, it will play through very nicely. Also, sometimes when choosing a video to play it will say there is nothing to play. Usually just clicking on the video again will solve the issue.

I have not tried high definition movies, nor have I tried it using a mobile hotspot. I imagine through more thorough testing more issues will crop up, but all in all, a very good start, and can't wait to see what lies in the future of this app.

I apparently cannot post links just yet, so please feel free to search for it on the market. Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] simonk83:
I'd give it a crack but 5 bucks for a boxee remote is about 4 bucks too much to be honest.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mgs526:
The real value in the app is not the remote function. It's the ability to use Navi-X on your nook color.

Navi-X is an app for XBMC and Boxee that aggregates streaming video links. You can watch almost anything that is streaming online with this app on your Nook Color. If you tether your Nook while you are away from wifi, you can watch almost anything you want.

But if I dont have internet. the navigon dont start it auto-kill

When I activate wifi/3g it runs without problems.

Before dont had this problem...

Who knows ??

I use Copilot Live 8.

It doesn't need data connection, all maps are stored on SD.

Also use it on my Viewsonic G-Tab.

On the Market it was like $19 USD for North America.

So, give it a try, get GPS on and forget about Internet connection.

Hope it helps.

I use navigon every now and again without problems. With or without data connection. I know there is a selection with regards to connecting to data or not in the settings.
[HTC Sensation] Tester30:
That's just a matter of preference.... I swear by Copilot!!!

Never get any misdirection, recalculation is instant.

Updates are coming constantly, so you're never in the dark.

And again, the best feature for me IT DOES NOT require any and I'll say any data connection. Only GPS ON.

Try if you want to, I recommend.

[HTC Sensation] moviewatch:
I will try out Copilot because can't get navigon worked.

Thanks for helping !
[HTC Sensation] FilipC:
genuine paid Navigon only NEEDS Internet connection once to validate license

afterwards the connection is optional for traffic updates and maybe other features (POI?)

my biggest problem with Navigon is with maps - it came with obsolete (6 months old) maps and I don't know a way to update then

buying FreshMaps EU 44 to update my original ones can't be done as Android isn't in the supported devices list

any ideas? ta

Hey! :)

I really hope that this haven´t been asked already...I haven´t found an answer yet. Tell me, is there any possibility to get a digitizer working on this touchpad? I do not have any knowledge about the technical requirements for these active pens... :(
[TouchPad Accessories] knownboyofno:
Y dont you just get a ipad pen type of pen?
[TouchPad Accessories] dreadlord369:
Do you mean a capacitive stylus? The screen is capacitive so only a capacitive stylus will work. Just check out ebay. Any stylus that works with an ipad, transformer, or iconia will work on the touchpad.
[TouchPad Accessories] eltee:
If you are thinking of something more like a Wacom tablet type 'active' digitizer, then no, they cannot work with a standard (capacitive only) device. They operate using a radio frequency system which has to be present both on the pen and on the tablet itself.

The bonus is improved accuracy and sensitivity for the device, the drawback being cost, a *screenless* wacom tablet using that technology is already a hundred dollars or more, and to combine it with a screen wacom charges a thousand dollars handily.

HTC has a compromise of a sort with the flyer tablet, but again thats a two part system, part of it is in the pen and part is engineered into the tablet itself.
[TouchPad Accessories] greenlant:
Thats´what I meant (an active digitizer)...okay, thank you all for your help!!! :) In this case I have to find out, if such a capacitive pen runs well, but I´ve heard that the are not that good...:eek:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JACKLINGUINI:
Hi Folks,

as you can probably see this is my first post to XDA. please be kind.

I have used CM7 on both the LG g2x and Samsung Tmobile Vibrant. (T959)

I got a little tripped up trying to go back from CM7 to stock nandroid backup on my Vibrant. I failed to understand the differences in the filesystem layout.

After much jiggering and finagling I did get it back to stock... But you can understand that I don't want to repeat that...

I'm thinking of installing the latest Zendroid. I already am running 2.2 UVKB5 with root. CWM. Cmenard overstock kernel and Voodoo sound.

I make regular backups both with Titanium and CWM....

If I install the latest Zendroid, will I be able to go back to my previous backups?

As far as I understand Zendroid is just a streamlined build of the Samsung OS.

I could upgrade to Zendroid and fallback

Also does the dock audio functionality work with zendroid ? Not a dealbreaker just a question.

nandroid does not back up your kernel. So if you are going to gingerbread then you cannot restore a nandroid backup of froyo without flashing a froyo kernel first, and even then i'm not 100% sure it would work
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JACKLINGUINI:
not going to GB

Nope. Zendroid is I *believe* Froyo kernel.

The problem I had trying to restore from CM down to original OS might have been both a kernel issue and a FS issue. I *think* the problem had to do with the different partition table and PIT used by CM7 vs OG Samsung.

Anyhow. I'm a very literal person so I just want to know what I am looking at

before I do a wipe and a whole new install. I don't want to have to go thru the

whole ODIN process if I want to backout.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
I would stay away from CWM (nandroid) backups. When you restore those, you are essentially overwriting the entire system and data partitions on the phone, and basically overwriting the entire rom with whats contained in your backup.

Titanium backups of applications are safe to restore, as well as a few system apps (contacts, dictionary, calendar, bookmarks, and Wifi access points are all I restore from the system apps in Titanium), but mostly with titanium you want to stay away from restoring the red and green colored apps. White are fine though and won't cause any issues.

Basically, if you flash ZenDroid, then do a CWM restore, you will lose all of the streamlining and tweaks that are in my build, and you will really be running stock again.

And yes, ZD is a Froyo (KB5) based rom, and a Froyo based kernel.

Dock audio, should work, but I don't have a dock to test it with. I didn't take anything out of the build that effects it TMK, so it should work.

EDIT - and while you will not have to Odin to go from ZD to a different rom, being good friends with Odin and flashing stock firmware from time to time is always high on my list of recommendations, jsut to alleviate any ghosts of roms past.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JACKLINGUINI:
Thanks !

That's what I wanted to know.

I just didn't want to deal with any of the CM7 issues when trying to restore.

I do realize that if I install zendroid then restore I go back to my pre zendroid state. I am just making sure that I can roll back to normal if I have issues.

Stock touchwiz is a bit bloated but the basics work good and I get decent battery life. CM7 was pretty heavy on battery life.

I had to use CM7 on the LG G2x because LG couldn't be bothered to produce production ready software before they released the thing.

The Samsung software does have some bloat but runs OK.

thanks br!ck'd for making this build. I will let you know how it's rocking once I install and test.
