I had it bad on my Desire HD, and I was just taking some pics with the GSII. I can see a bit of it, but not as bad as the DHD. I think all cams do that no matter how good they are on the phones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] overthatscreen:
I went ahead and replaced it at the Tmobile store. The rep tried to play it as normal. Wasn't taking that as an answer. My Sprint version was perfect. There was no color distortion whatsoever.

The new ia a lot better. It's still there to a degree. It takes some squinting to see. I might have a keeper. I was worried that if things don't work out, I'd switch to the Vibrant and wait for the Nexus.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morvyman:
Did some searching re: other people's battery woes, but didn't see anything specific to awake time, any help appreciated, including a link if the answer to my problems is posted "out there" somewhere!!

I cannot figure out what is draining my Atrix battery so fast?? On Froyo, it was reasonable, but since GB, it licks! Also, on Froyo, you could see what processes had used battery! Using *#*#4636#*#* you could see usage statistics that told you specifically which PROCESSES had consumed what %, with the option to toggle between since last boot, since all time etc but in GB this is much less useful, just tell you apps ie launcher, browser, gmail etc with a launch count and unhelpful # of milliseconds?!?

Do you know of any way to find out the type of info that Froyo used to provide, or a market app that will tell you more than just which apps launched?? When I look at battery and data mangager/battery usage my phone idle % is HUGE, and the phone "awake" bar graph shows my phone awake almost constantly despite "screen on bar" graph having large gaps where I obviously wasn't using my phone.

For example, I purposely did not put on charger last night at bedtime, battery was at 62%, woke up 7 hours later, battery at 21% !!! Something is keeping my phone awake &/or constantly waking it up, but I'll be damned if I know what. I have minimal apps installed since flashing Red Pill, just bare bones, thinking maybe one of my non-essential apps was the culprit!? I used to think it was all blur, but tried CM7 beta, and it's bad battery life dispelled that notion.

Also tried Juice Defender, but no improvement, I guess b/c whatever is waking my phone up overrules juice defender in priority??

Please, is there anything I can do before I launch this Motorola thing off my 12th floor balcony and go out and buy myself another Nokia (old reliable)??? I'd really miss the fingerprint scanner, but it might solve my migraine problems since 2.3.4 entered my life!!!

Thanks,

Try flashing .30P radio
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morvyman:
my about phone/baseband version says:

N_01.77.33P

Does this mean I have .33P radio, and if so, would "downgrading" to .30P be better??

Thank-you.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotekz:
unless the radio has a problem getting a signal then is probably not your radio. you can check this by going to battery usage and then cell standby and it will tell you time without signal. if this number is high then it might be your radio. if not then you need to find out what app is staying open and draining your battery. check your running services and try to figure out whats running in the background. you can use apps like system panel and os monitor to find rogue apps. also install a reliable rom like Homebase or CM7
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morvyman:
radio checked, not the problem, 0% w/o signal, tried sys panel, didn't shed any light on "awake" problem, will have a look at os monitor.

Turn off background sync if you have it on. That drains a lot if it auto updates in a weak signal area...

FroyoMOD is getting tons of free RAM with the latest updates. Battery life is also good as well, so I'm not sure what you might be missing in Froyo that Eclair would have. Plus, your FPS is not locked to 30fps.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] projektorboy:
Free RAM is wasted RAM. Android doesn't work the way you think it does. Android (especially newer versions) is really good at memory management, and keeps the most frequently used data in RAM so that your phone stays snappy and running well.

Not to mention the severe amount of handicapping in terms of features going on with Eclair. I wouldn't feel comfortable running anything less than Froyo these days.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:

OK Congrats. I dont know whether you have flashed a custom kernel after unlocking. (if u see sony ericsson at booting, it means u haven't, but that dosent mean you have a locked bootloader).

Did you flash the .71 baseband after you flashed Gingerbread firmware, otherwise you will get an error stating no sim and no imei no. Dont go for overclocking at this stage. Start from normal versions, let your phone be stable then you can go for overclocking.

I think dixperia 3 is based on stock rom. So start with non overclocked version. If your phone is stable for few hrs then you can flash overclocked version. Use Setcpu to control the frequencies. Dont keep it overclocked for a longer time, coz it will heatup and might damage the hardware.

Can someone please tell me how the Atrix 2 is a downgrade? Comparing it to the OG Atrix it actually looks like a sidegrade. You won't lose anything, nor would you gain anything other than a slightly bigger screen, different processor, and a better look to Motoblur. I was gonna get a gs2 for my upgrade, but then I thought, why would I pay 200 for a phone when I can get an Atrix 2 and a lapdock for about the same price. To each their own, and I just feel calling the Atrix 2 a downgrade just ain't right. Even a few tech sites, can't remember the few specific ones, have called it a sidegrade.

I have a UK Xoom but as Motorola are so slow to release updates I unlocked the bootloader and put the US stock 3.2 ROM on it (build HTK75D). It's not rooted. As Video rentals were enabled in the UK this week I thought I would try one out. Unfortunately I got the dreaded "Playback is not supported on rooted devices. Error 49" message.

Does anyone else in the UK have this issue? Or even somebody with an unrooted Xoom with an unlocked bootloader?

Hi everyone

So I have Tab 10.1 which I bought in June... Later on I rooted it, a while ago before the touchwiz firmware update came out. Once that came out, I tried to update it numerous times (im not sure whether the tablet was still rooted or not when I tried to update) and the update failed continuously... Anyhow, don't ask me why I did this but I erased my system in the bootloader!!! I didnt realise that it was literally the OS I was clearing.... Eventually I found a firmware file on the internet for it and flashed it... Previously my Tab was running the HMJ37 UEKMB firmware, now it is running the Europe HMJ37 XXKFC firmware which has touchwiz already...

Now what I want to know is, is this firmware genuine, and will I be able to recieve future updates on it such as ICS when they are released? If not is there any place where I can find the UEKMB firmware to flash to my Tab??

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cezarL:
You need to copy both .zip files to the SD card (CM7 and gapps) and flash them in recovery. Do not unpack any of the files, unless you want to make modifications to them.

In recovery, choose "install zip from SD card" option, select the CM7 file first, wait for the flash to complete, then go to "install zip..." again, and select the gapps file.

Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache (this last one is under the "advanced" menu in recovery), then reboot.

Better to do all this with full battery, to avoid drain issues.

Kind of a harsh response although I understand the frustration over the frequent 3.2 questions.
