I'll give it a start: $5 donated. I hope I don't get laughed at for the small amount.

---------- Post added at 03:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

You might also want to change the title to say something like "donation link available" to draw more attention, otherwise those who have visited this thread will still think a donation method hasn't been worked out yet.

I'll try and update this at least once a day:

Hey guys I'm new to the sgs2 I came from an amaze and a sensation so I haven't read up much I figured this would be a good thread to ask. Does anyone know if supercurio is working on voodoo sound for this phone or is it already available? Thanks if anyone knows the answer btw I'm not asking for time or anything like that just curious if its being worked on I loved turning up the volume so much louder when I use to have my vibrant would love to have that back.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
So has there any progress on this, haven't seen anything on his twitter about it.

It seems right now he's focusing more on the international version and the Note.

Just curious..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] supercurio:
Yes I fixed Note screen because it was.. well not too difficult and I couldn't stand using this screen everyday.

Doesn't mean I gave up T989. But it's a lot more challenging and I can't provide something working yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] corwest:
The fact that you still look at this thread is cool. This makes you cool. Cool people do cool things so I will wait patiently for your work because it will be cool when its ready. Rock on superc. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AUTX_buckeye:
Thank you for continuing to look at this. It seems as though it will be a pretty long and indepth process to even try to come up with a solution. We appreciate you taking the time to look into it.

on a side note. I know you said No to voodoo sound because of the chipset, I've notice you've gotten some loudness tweaks going on the exynos version. I'm assuming its not possible to have anything like that because we use a qualcomm chipset?

thanks.

I knew it, I don't think anything can fix this ****. It's hard for him because its hardware not software like note etc.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I don't think he said anything about fixing blobs and lines which the galaxy note has as well. He said he can give us better color profiles to make them less visible. Most likely invisible to a certain degree. But they will still be there since its affect of manufacturing super amoled displays.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avarize:
Is there a brief rundown of the actual stated problems? (Other than the lines and blobs which were stated can not be fixed due to manufacturing process)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
Awesome man, I was just curious. I know you're a hard worker and you deliver the goods.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kaleom:
+1 I'm sure Samsung would come to their senses and accomadate us people with something for the lines and blotches reported on phones! It doesn't really bother me much and really can't notice but I'm actually thinking about calling tmo and see what they say!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonwind:
I never notice any improvement or worsening with the screen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] darkamikaze:
I really hope there's a way to calibrate if the sprint version has the same lines.. just that their screen is calibrated or something X_x.

here's to hoping!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonwind:
We know the processor is different, but what about the screen? Aren't they the same size (4.5" vs. 4.2")
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
It is different drivers since its a totally different port than exynos devices he is used to working on.

Also he need to develop his work so he can have money in his pocket so he can continue to work on tunning these various devices. He is most likely working on it. But works on other devices as he knows more about them. For him i believe development is a full time job for him. So developing is his source income. Can't develop if your working at another job all day. You just be to tired.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
Not sure whythis is much of a problem since it's not present until you are in a dark place with a mostly dark screen. Even then I'm not sure if it's fixable, as I can see the spots on my phone with the screen off ahem it's in direct sunlight like little oil spots

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] paul89:
I noticed the lines before even realizing this was a problem with AMOLED screens, and I always have the brightness 100%...It's mostly noticeable when running live wallpapers like microbes, and watching movie/video content, sometimes it looks really pathetic that I don't even want to watch a Netflix movie on my phone. As far as the blobs go, I can only see them when the screen is the black color that everyone has been testing their screens with, and I see them still with max brightness.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] darkamikaze:
Some of us have it really bad.. I know I see mine seeing regular jpgs.. when I open XDA app.. and in general the screen just doesn't look as good as our sprint neighbors..

I put a picture side by side. (same one) on my friend's phone and the screen difference is baffling.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tdizzle404:

well good to know i haven't completely lost my mind! sometimes i get lucky and see alot less you get use to it!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonwind:
Nope, it's hardware issue so they stay in the same spots.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] barmanham:
.

pretty confused about this do all the g2's have the blob issue? Do we have the same screen as the exynos one? I understand can't get rid of them I just don't wanna see them super is this remotely possible?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonwind:
All Galaxy S2 with the Qualcomm processor and thus 4.5 inch screen should have the problem to varying degrees.

Exynos based S2s (which have the 4.3" screen) do not have the problem at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] shreddintyres:
Ok so my understanding is that Supercurio will be dev'ing voodoo sound and voodoo color for the Hercules and Skyrocket sometime in the nearish future?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
No, unfortunately you have it all wrong. He has a post somewhere on here that highlights what his intentions are with this phone. The two you just mentioned aren't any of them.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HRodMusic:
not sure about voodoo, but he will improve the color on the screen, maybe sound but for now just the screen,

God why did i sell my nexus s i hate buying new phones always something......
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonwind:
This might be as good as they get. I think other people would consider your phone to not have the problem at all.

Well thats what i thought at first was awesome a perfect screen. But we all now that wont happen. I have the lines and blobs but very light non noticable seriously the blobs are like dots on i's. And the lines are paper thin. Either way im pleased but when SC fixes the issue my screen will be perfect for me!!! :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cheema:
This statement is only partially correct. Sprint SGSII display is 4.5" and does not have the screen problems we are talking about here. Screen size has shown to not be the source of the problem.

See: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1320942

Qualcom based units however, all appear to have the defective screens. Some people claim that they don't see the lines on these units, but nobody has actually provided any real evidence to back up such a claim.

---------- Post added at 04:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 AM ----------

It does not look like that Samsung will come through for us. They haven't even so much as acknowledged this issue. They have lost major points with me for future purchases.

Supercurio is about all we have at this point, to deliver us from our defective displays.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] paul89:
I just realized that the blobs can be seen with the screen off and having the sun reflect on the screen, clearly proving that the blobs are a hardware defect having nothing to do with the screen not supplying enough voltage or whatever to the effected areas, but rather the thin sheets that make up the screen has the defect in them :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
How longs it been since he got his phone? I dont think he can do anything for these screens.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KillaHurtz:
Yep
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
Supercurio is great at what he does, but if he ain't gonna work on our phone then I believe he should give it to a reputable dev that would at least make some roms or kernels for us.

I'm sure there are plenty great devs out there that would want this phone.

agree i did donate to this, its lame its been a month and nothing =/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonwind:
Not expecting any miracles, but I would like some word on the progress so far.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cashyftw:
lol every time we donate.. nothing lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Are you guys that impatient. He said it himself before anyone donated that this would be a task that would take a long time since our phone is not like the other models. He even said the note would be easier to work with. He stated he would make an honest attempt and there was never a promise to guarantee anything. Its just interesting how people agree to these threads saying theyll be patient and a few weeks later they have nothing better to do than attack someone who never promised 100% results. Advice. Be patient and be respectful. You are not the ones doing this and living a life outside xda. He obviously is a busy person and not going to take advantage of us.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HRodMusic:
Its been a while we should at least see some updates.. twitter updates ion something.. it seems like he is working on every other device except ours.. hella lame if u ask me.. I love super curio but this is sad :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] steven178s:
I know =( i love supercurio but...i feel abandoned =(((
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Your comments are really petty. You thinkbit takes 1 month to dev up from scratch correct gamma code? For how much supercurio has contributed to xda community over the years, voodoo, voodoo sound, etc. A donation does not mean that he is your employee. He does not have to report anything. be empathetic, how many of us have busy lives, work, priorities outside xda? What if someone was posting these comments about you. How motivated woulf you feel if you were reading these comments? I can understand your impatience. But is your phone that unusable with blobs /lines that are mainly seen at low brightness. I love my phone and even with the issues i dont regret my purchase and in jo way does it affect how i use my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cashyftw:
Look I solved all your spelling errors.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Really? Im typing from my phone!!! If i were the dev you donated to i would just stop because this behavior is not progressive nor constructive. You can flame me all you want and fill the air with sarcasm, but my point(s) is valid. Lesson from all these bounty threads; dont donate if you expect quick and guaranteed results. Period!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jonathan3579:
Ahem. If people are so unhappy with their phones then maybe it's best to just move along. 2¢

This forum has shown it is full of impatient people who bicker amongst each other endlessly. A lull today is only the calm before the storm tomorrow. This community is kinda doomed at this rate if people don't get their attitudes and mindset together.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HRodMusic:
im not being impatient, i dont even own the phone anymore! gave it to my dad, but i would like to see some updates and stuff, u kno to improve his phone.. just saying, a month and not a dam update.. not even a hello i got this far but it still needs work.. or did i miss something he said?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Now this maybbe an exagerrated example, but if donated x amount of money to a research facility because they said they would try to cure cancer, would you be upset if a month later or so much time later they had not produced any results nor updated you on whats been happening? Would you get so upset that you would ask for your donation back? How does that sound? A donation does not contract the recipient of the donated money to a list of rules regarding the donation. Be upset but dont post it here. It pushes people away,contributes to nothing, and encourages negativity.

Really? 3 month old phones are halfway into their popular life span. This phone is actually old now IMO.

I just dont see how the note can be fixed by him asap and this phone pushed aside with no mention of progress.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] anomy13:
This phone has been out for 3 months but the problem was not publically addressed here until recently. It takes time to figure out whats really going on with this screen and it will take additional time to write a program to "mask" this problem. Supercurio is a human being and Im sure he has his own agendas. Sure, no mention of progress is here but it is still good to know that someone like him exists in order to help us aid this problem whether or not we get his help or not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Husam2011:
This phone has been out for almost 4 months, and the issue has been known since October if im correct on Engadget.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] anomy13:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
This phone came out at the beginning of November . The issue for the thread wasn't created until soon after aand sites like endgadget and tmonews didn't publish till a little after it started becoming a big deal. Supercurios thread is only a couple months old and if you factor how long he's had the phone, realistically can you expect a quick fix. Its one man attempting to reengineer the correct callibtation for our screens.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] billydroid:
Supercurio only job I believe is app development. So, yes he is going to spend a great more amount of time on the projects that provide income.

The man's work is nothing short of amazing and the quality isn't achieved by pushing out half baked code.

When he has something worth updating, he will. He was very straight forward about a timeline and expectations before he got the phone.

He is not going to stiff the donators, so calm down.

Maybe because it's just an effect of the manufacturing process. Light bleed isn't considered a defect on IPS screens.
