update-cm-7.1.0-X10Mini-signed.zip inside gt 1 file named kernel.sin ._.

and can i use nAa kernel? >.<
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] emmanuelcassar:
don't unzip that file I don't know why CyanogenMod included that in the zipped file.. use the kernel which is found in the folder flashtool.. That is the kernel which nAa has provided us.. The FXP kernel!

kays

rom manager in the official CM rom doesn't show up x10 mini in the CWM recovery flash list =)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kamarush:
I've flashed the FXP kernel, but i can't get into recovery... :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] emmanuelcassar:
Flash FXP kernel when ready, remove usb from phone, power on the mini and when the distorted image is shown, start tapping the back key to enter recovery.

what you mean?

[HTC Amaze 4G] greengoldmello:
Just bought an amaze. And I see that I have a bad screen bleed, also one dead pixel. Anybody else have the same issue?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Reviewers:
Nope I don't have any dead pixels or screen bleed .
[HTC Amaze 4G] greengoldmello:
I take that back, its not actually screen bleed. When the lights at the bottom of the phone light up I get the screen bleed effect.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Reviewers:
Oh so its fine now right ?
[HTC Amaze 4G] greengoldmello:
Not really lol. But its better cause when watching videos those keys will not be illuminated
[HTC Amaze 4G] bobbyphoenix:
I tried three different ones before I gave up. All of them had that with the lights. When on they bled up the bottom of the screen. You can really notice it when the screen is dark or black background.
[HTC Amaze 4G] southpaw773:
yea mine has it and all the ones i tried did so exchanging it wont result in anything it appears
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheHeffNerr:
I only have screen bleeding issue when screen isn't on full brightness. Doesn't really bother me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] 5of0:
I posted this in another thread, but I took some pictures of the "screen bleed" (light from the buttons bleeding over into the screen) on my Amaze 4G. I also put up some pictures of my Nexus S, which has the same button configuration, but zero screen bleed:

http://plus.google.com/photos/105505315440794373505/albums/5662786129509465969

Here's the best picture, with the Nexus S for comparison:
[HTC Amaze 4G] domin8:
Exactly. Doesn't bother me really. At least its not an issue that hinders the actual performance of the device like the epic 4g touch and its loss of signal issues that everyone is having.
[HTC Amaze 4G] keger_:
That picture is unfair to the HTC Amaze, the bezel is supposed to be the same color but it's a lot darker on the Nexus S picture.
[HTC Amaze 4G] 5of0:
Hokay, I added more pics to my album. Sorry about the terrible shakycam, I don't have a tripod or anything, and flash screws everything up.

Here's the two side-by-side. One thing I noticed: the Nexus is absolutely fantastic at preserving the blacks. I'm sure this is due to a difference in backlight/screen tech, but it's really impressive - black is just black on the Nexus. The Amaze is much lighter grey when it's supposed to be "black". Here's the two side-by-side with the backlights at their lowest and highest settings:

But even without any backlight or bottom lights, the Nexus' screen is still noticeably blacker than the Amaze. I also added another picture I found elsewhere on the web with two versions of the Nexus S - it is just a difference in the screen tech (SuperLCD vs AMOLED). That may be a factor here as well.

I'm not trying to discredit the Amaze at all - I own it, I love it, and I plan on keeping it. The screen bleed is probably made worse/more noticeable by the screen tech choice, which isn't as good at reproducing blacks. This isn't a huge issue for me, but I just wanted to document the differences here. I'm just taking the best pictures I can to represent it - it really is noticeable in person too, if you care about such things.
[HTC Amaze 4G] johnk1973:
Can you take pictures in normal daylight on it's auto light settings to show how it looks in real life..
[HTC Amaze 4G] keger_:
Wow, indeed. I didn't think the blacks would be so different on the two phones (which is why I thought it came from your pictures - evidently I was wrong).

Those pictures are awesome and clearly show how the bottom lights affect the screen, thanks!

Not enough to make me reconsider (though maybe I'll change my mind when I finally have it in hands).
[HTC Amaze 4G] robrob777:
My friend had a very similar light bleeding in his EVO...one day he broke the screen and when replaced with a new one, the problem was gone. so it was a manufacturing issue on the first screen.
[HTC Amaze 4G] 5of0:
Hokay. I've added some outdoor pictures, and a set of indoor pictures in my dark apartment now that it's day. Updated link. It definitely is much less noticeable outside (although I spend a considerable amount of time inside that I count as "real life" as well :P), and the Nexus screen is still blacker, although not as much. Pics:

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 AM ----------

Yeah, the side-by-side Nexus pic I found really demonstrates that. It's not nearly as disparate outdoors, but indoors it's pretty noticeable. And it is just the screen tech - screen techs have their pros and cons, black reproduction is only one aspect of screen quality.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheHeffNerr:
Not a performance issue but could be an easy software fix just have the keys dim with the screen. Sent htc an email so other versions might be better.. but I'm sure once we get root there might be a fix for it
[HTC Amaze 4G] johnk1973:
Do the lights dim? Most LEDs are only capable of being on or off..
[HTC Amaze 4G] keger_:
All the LEDs are capable of being dimmed, you just have to give them less power.
[HTC Amaze 4G] 5of0:
Not terribly on-topic, but LEDs are generally actually dimmed via pulse-width modulation - basically, if you want 50% brightness, you turn them on for 50% of the time, off 50% of the time, at >60Hz. Among other things, LED color depends on current - so supplying less current would not only make them dimmer, but change the color.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheHeffNerr:
I got a HTC contact I've emailed so they might put out an update for it but waiting to hear back... (Non customer contact)
[HTC Amaze 4G] bobbyphoenix:
Cool. Thanks. Keep us posted. I really want this phone, but that issue is the only thing stopping me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] k87:
The galaxy nexus has it too. Same exact thing
[HTC Amaze 4G] vikramdhani:
Seems like this is will not be fixed by a firmware or software update, it is an hardware issue provided someone else can say otherwise or prove otherwise
[HTC Amaze 4G] bobbyphoenix:
That's amazing! No pun intended. I was like "Really? OK.", but then I saw a shot of it. I guess having bright buttons on the actual screen will do that? Got me. You think with technology these days a manufacturer can make a phone that doesn't do that. Here is the shot I saw. http://1.androidauthority.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/galaxy-nexus436v.jpg
[HTC Amaze 4G] fimanmd:
I guess Im surprised people think this is a big deal. I have the screen bleed, im sure all amazes do but it's only noticable on a blank screen or a really dark screen
[HTC Amaze 4G] saulcho009:
Define noticeable. Is it as bad as the photo shows? I tend to use dark backgrounds and I'm a bit consider about this bleed.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fimanmd:
yeah, its pretty noticable. I guess I just dont care. The buttons are big and bright and it bleeds into the screen. but for most apps where the screen is light in color there is no problem. also, if the buttons arent on then there is no issue.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lgtsanev:
Wow! I also have a screen bleed, but its nothing compared to yours. I would suggest you to go back to the tmo store and ask for an exchange. Compare the new amaze to your old one to make sure bleed is not as much... Good luck.

Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G
[HTC Amaze 4G] fimanmd:
Not trying to discredit or disrespect, but I seriously doubt they are going to take back a phone because of screen bleed, or, if any amaze will be different than the others, for that matter. It would be worth a shot, let us know what you find out. I love my amaze and dont really care about the bleed but I guess ive said that a few times now.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
This is intentional...enjoy the best phone out right now.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lgtsanev:
No offense taken, mate, but I surely disagree that there isnt a difference in screen bleed between devices. At least comparing to my Amaze which has a little bleed (on auto brightness), much lower than this guy's phone where it affects more then half of the screen... If it bothers him, going to TMo is worth a try, they might agree to exchange for another (especially since buyers remorse period is still active), who knows.... I have never had problems exchanging phones with them (and Ive done it at least 5 times over the years) and with their customer care in general (unlike AT&T's, for example), thats why Ive been with them for so long...
[HTC Amaze 4G] bladerunner0427:
My fiance's and my Amaze both have the "screen bleed." I noticed it, but it doesn't bother me. Doesn't bother her cuz she doesn't even know what it is. It's more a brightness issue than bleeding I think. My previous phone is a Vibrant and that has a gorgeous screen. The screen on the Amaze is quite impressive IMHO. Very readable in full sunlight as well. Love the Amaze.
[HTC Amaze 4G] CalicoJeb:
That so called "screen bleed" is only noticed (at least by me) when on the all black settings page(s) and only with the screen brightness set at certain levels

Nothing is seen under normal phone operations, come on folks, am I wrong?

If I am - some one please post a pic with it showing somewhere else, video playing, browser open, picture gallery open, using the phone dial, playing a game?

I certainly see it nowhere else, so its no bother to me
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
It is such a miniscule issue for me I thought people were crazy for worrying about it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] saulcho009:
When I first heard of this, I was unsure if I should buy the phone. But after having a little demo in my hand, you're right, its not that bad.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheHeffNerr:
That's why you don't contact the regular support people :P

They are playing with a few software fixes, but he didn't tell me when / if it would ever get fixed via software. That is from one of the engineers since I don't work for the company any more (not HTC) he can't really give me any more details :'(

But it's still not that bad.
[HTC Amaze 4G] James12:
Just bought mine Saturday I also have that slight light bleed when the bottom lights are on...
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
Trust me, it is minuscule when you hold this precious device and caress it's curves...begging for more use.

\why yes, the wife is at work and I am at home with the pups.
[HTC Amaze 4G] goonx:
Same here on my sensation. (i think they use the same screens). It's only noticeable when the screen is completely black. Just only of the limitations of LCD vs. AMOLED.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Chance Ill:
I was considering buying the Amaze today until I noticed the bleeding on 3 different devices. The G2X has the same issue. Fortunately, my HTC Sensation doesn't have this problem.
[HTC Amaze 4G] bobbyricha:
It would be nice if the backlight for the bottom buttons would go out after a pre-determined time period - say a second or two - that would kill the bleed. It appears that light stays on while the screen is lit. Maybe in an HTC upgrade or custom rom.

I was streaming a movie last night and those backlights stayed on, causing the bleed. I figured the lights would cut off when streaming video. Are you guys seeing the same?
[HTC Amaze 4G] bobbyphoenix:
I went with the GSII because of this issue. I don't regret it one bit. The only reason I'm posting is for the irony. The GSII doesn't have the issue, but has an option to turn the button lights off permanently.

Sent from my awesome Galaxy S II
[HTC Amaze 4G] Splaktar:
Ugh. I am looking at switching from the sgs2 to the Amaze tomorrow because of the vertical lines issue and the grainy looking dark colors. I had some bleed through on my EVO but it didn't bother me much. Hope the Amaze isn't worse.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spovik:
The lights seem to be based on a light sensor in my experience so maybe it can be overridden.
[HTC Amaze 4G] getrdy:
I'm sure a saw an appfor that on one of my older devices but I can't find it on the amaze. It even had the option to manually adjust it with a scroll and dimmer times
[HTC Amaze 4G] the_duck:
All Androids Suffer From This Problem

Had my original support case escalated because I complained when they sent me a survey. Long story short, was told by rep that ALL ANDROID PHONES SUFFER FROM THIS PROBLEM. Guess he never seen an OLED screen.

Sent him pictures of mine and he agreed its pretty bad and has deemed it a hardware malfunction and I now have the option to send mine in for repair that will take 3 to 4 weeks. I can't go back to my G1 for that long so I'm just going to live with it.

How disappointing.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Zeusus:
there is an app, screen filter, which has the option to turn off the soft key lights. Set the filter to 100% and select the disable softkey lights (I think that is the setting). You dont need root either, I've been using it until a better fix comes along.... which I am sure will come.
[HTC Amaze 4G] marleyfan61:
Just download mVideoPlayer from the Market. You can turn the lights off during movie playback. Works like a charm.

phanboy

I hate to be an absolute phanboy but I have both phones, Gs2 and amaze in hand right now and all I can say is I haven't pick up the GS2 since I bought the amaze. I thought no phone could beat HD2 (android) for feel in hand but I alread listed the GS2 on ebay. This phone is the TITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] MellowHype:
but the gs2 has a problem with the screen, i did the same thing & exchanged my amaze for gs2 & im dissapointed at the lines & blotches i get on my screen & i went back to get another one & same issue, i might be going back to the amaze or say no to both & get a sensation & wait for something else to drop :/
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
are you kidding me -_- it seems there is always "one problem" with a HTC phone. =/ Its probably because they are releasing phones from left and right. I am sending my sensation back tomorrow to get this. Is this problem on EVERY Amaze? My sensation doesnt have this problem that i know of.
[HTC Amaze 4G] antiquezip:
Screen bleed is not HTC's problems but rather a LCDs screen problems in general and it's happened on many products that using LCD, from iPhone, iPad, MacBook to LG and Samsung LCD TV

[HTC Amaze 4G] HunnyBearLewis:
Whoa I'm surprised no one has suggested trying out Screen Filter yet! (or maybe I'm blind and didn't see it skimming through posts)

Anyways, download it from the market for free and once enabled you can filter your screens brightness (or keep it exactly the same like me) but also turn off the soft-key lights causing the bleed.

If you like being able to see your softkeys then just have the app on hand for when you want to watch a video without bleed and then disable screen filter again.
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
all i see is the ipad 2 (could care less lol) and the g2x (this phone had much more issues to sad about that) and the amaze was the first result xD i dont think i had this even on my mytouch 3g, 3g slide, or 4g which is sad because the build quality on those were horrid.
[HTC Amaze 4G] antiquezip:
Try changing the search term from screen bleed into light leakage and you'll find that the Vivid, Sensation, SGS2, Incredible S, Asus Eee Pad Transformer, Evo 3D, and some others having that problem too :p

http://www.google.com/search?q=scre....,cf.osb&fp=ab2be418db89dc61&biw=1242&bih=619
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
i didnt see the vivid, or sgs2, evo 3d, asus or incredible, maybe because im using bing. lol.

all i know is my defective sensation thats been through **** (i bought it off ebay used and was already messed up) doesnt even have this issue.. i thought that was weird. i didnt see anything like that on the vivid. even if you go to official speck website and look at the shot of the HTC Amaze with the speck case you see bleeding in the screen hahaha, and the vivid look perfect. im not hating i am just truely dissapointed =/ I am actually trying to buy this phone lol. hopefully not all of them have it, and hopefully there is a better workaround then a third pardy app..

BUT: at least we dont have a issue as bad as the galaxy nexus, which is much worse. its the actual screen. take a look at there threads, people are having issues with the pentile matrix display -_- i wish companys would test there phones a bit more.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
I noticed the keys lighting up the screen from day one I had this phone, but now I noticed the dead pixel
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
isnt there anything you can place to seperate the screen from the capacitive buttons? lol like tape
[HTC Amaze 4G] claud_face:
Yea you could but you have to take apart your phone and most people winter do that.

I haven't tried faux latest kernel but he mentions he dims the capacitive buttons.

That must help its just a question of how much.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
Lol I dunno altough I've a kernel might fix this issue
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
Haha, just a idea. Sounds like it would work if you could actually find seperation between the screen and the capacitive buttons (if there is and its not all connected).

Or you can just put a strip of tape above it before the screen starts and it would probably block it off. :D I probably wouldnt do it unless it bugged me so much, but it probably wont.. im not big on a lot of blacks anyways. i like more white stuff, and colorful wallpapers.
[HTC Amaze 4G] nguyendqh:
Are you using "Screen Filter"?
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
I dont even have that phone, yet! either getting this or the SGS II Titanium, or HTC Vivid, maybe even the titan, which ever i get the best deal on. Out of all of them i want the Amaze but its also the most, for some reason? there is actually no reason it should be (on ebay). any of them would be better than the sensation i had though, the problems were beyond fixable xD

I was just thinking of solutions :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] mapleleafs89:
Is there an app that limits the brightness of the softkeys? Would be nice to have it very low, so its still visible but so it doesnt bleed onto the screen very much.

Also, someone mentioned turning it off completely, where is the option for that?
[HTC Amaze 4G] nguyendqh:
The app is called "Screen Filter". It lets you dim or turn off capacitive keys.
[HTC Amaze 4G] twistmycap:
Having same issues! Especially 3 light dots at the bottom
[HTC Amaze 4G] dutch_papi:
3 light dots below the capacitive buttons

Yeah!!! What's up with those 3 light dots below the capacitive buttons? I thought it was just my unit! Anybody know what function they serve?

Thanks in advance for the Screen Filter app fix. I'm gonna download it and try it out. :D

HTC Amaze Button Backlight Bleeding on LCD

Your wrong; this appears to be a design flaw in the Amaze. Install Google Sky, toggle night mode, and you will clearly see the issue. Yes, the issue is less appearent with some apps and commonly used skins - but this is an issue when folks are shelling out $$$ for a phone that should not have this level of issue. The only thing I can think of doing is disabling the backlight on the capacitive buttons permanently - most likely though some mod. Not sure if there is a way to control the intensity of the button backlight.

Every disappointed in the purchase because of this issue; and will likely return it and wait for something better.

---------- Post added at 11:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 AM ----------

Doesnt let you dim the keys, just turn them on and off; it does let you control the screen brightness. Not sure if there is a way to control the brightness of the keys, but that would probably keep me from returning the Amaze.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rubyman94:
Screen bleed only bothers me when i have my brightness all the way down and i have a dark wallpaper. so i really dont see what the big deal is. Im happy with my good looking phone :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Previous post was not "wrong" for I have the same experience. It's apparent that the amount of bleed varies from device to device. Some have none, others have 2 dots, 3 or even some with 5. I do agree though, way too expensive to have light bleed, not to mention the aluminum foil on my WiFi antenna and the folded paper to stop the back cover squeak.
[HTC Amaze 4G] JesseMT4G:
I dont know why more people don't use the screen filter app. Now there is another one in the market where you don't get the annoying emblem up in your status bar like screen filter when it is enabled. I forget the name of that one though....

I personally think blacks look just as good as the sGS2 when the lights arent on of course.
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
You should try to find it again! do you know if it uses more or less battery?

[HTC Amaze 4G] ChromeJob:
RootDim requires rooted device. ScreenFilter works fine on stock.

I've had 3 Amaze handsets in my possession, first one had slightly less bleed, but the last two (manufact'ed ~ 9/31 and ~ 1/31) have it plenty. It IS pretty noticeable with white on black screen views, but with the ability to turn them off, not such a tragedy. It is a pity that such an expensive, high end phone has this issue. I'm beginning to wonder if they rushed the Amaze out while working harder on the HTC One (X & S).
[HTC Amaze 4G] mischivo:
Thank you! Just what I was looking for, an app that turns of those darnked backlight buttons without placing an icon in my system tray. :D
