Black text on a white background is as plain as night and day for me. Id say check out the store demo to compare. If the demo is better than yours, swap out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Nakel:
Good call, I'll do that. Out of curiousity, what was your last phone, and have you compared black on white with it? Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Shmegmaking:
There is a setting under display that says 'anaylize images and adjust screen brightness' to save battery. This is checked by default and was not on the og s2. This is also separate from the auto adjust brightness to ambient light. I found that when i unclicked this, all my screen concerns went away.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Synner12:

Thanks! That was driving me crazy. It was very prevalent in the stock email app. I can't believe I overlooked that stupid box...lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] theofficial43:
Where is this setting I don't see it in display. The white and black drives me crazy with this phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Synner12:
Settings>Display>Auto adjust screen power. Uncheck that box.

It will put a little more drain on your battery, but it's more than worth it, and hardly noticeable to me.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Waza_Be:
Hello all,

My question is quite specific, I hope I won't annoy you...

In fact, I just received one HTC Desire from a friend with a broken screen (I doubt touchscreen still working), but it seem to boot perfectly.

I have access to fastboot, but the friend didn't put USB debugging ON.

I think the only way to get access to the phone is to flash an img of any ROM, start the phone and use some stuff like android screencast to play with it.

Do you know a ROM I can find in img format with USB debugging ON by default?

Thank a lot for your help!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
debugging has nothing to do with fastboot, if you want to flash things through fastboot you need S-OFF.

I don't get what the problem is here though... if it boots then.. what are you trying to fix? :confused:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Waza_Be:
Yes, I am aware that debugging has nothing to do with fastbot!

My screen is broken, black and I have no touchscreen, so I need to turn USB debug in "blind mode" so I will be able to use DDMS or screencast!

The issue is that I cannot turn on USB debug without screen and touchscreen.

So, I need to flash a ROM with USB debug turned ON by default. and because I cannnot play with recovery without touchscreen!

Have you a better idea?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
okay I get it now.. I think most ROMs have USB debugging turned on by default..

If you're S-OFF what you could do is get someone to flash e.g. cyanogenmod for you, create a backup (which are a set of .img files) and then flash them with fastboot commander (I dunno it could work in theory, I've never tried it).

-or-

have a look at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=625950

update.zip being the ROM you want to flash

Since you can't see the screen, you can boot into recovery with.

adb reboot recovery

-or-

fastboot oem gencheckpt
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Waza_Be:
if I can flash a Nandroid backup from fastboot, that would just be awesome!

Thank a lot for your suggestion, will try that.

Will I need to wipe, or all the files will automatically be rewritten?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
I said in theory you can, haven't personally tried it myself lol - so you may actually just end up with a phone that doesn't boot, because as I said, I haven't tried it myself...

They should be overwritten but I'd wipe anyway, just to be on the safe side.

I think that thread I posted had some useful stuff on it too, and it would probably be better to do it that way, but whatever it's your phone ;)

Hi, I have my new i9100 for about 3 weeks now, and decided to buy the Anker 1900mAh battery (due to popular reviews on here and Amazon).

Still on stock rom as I want to make sure everything is ok with the phone before I root...

As its a higher capacity battery, should I run the "Batter Calibration" app from the market once its fully charged with the new battery?

Or will it be fine without that?

All advice is welcome!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3waygeek:
Here's the technique I've used.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronMit:
so when you recalibrate with the ankhers battery....and then you use your old one...will the old one now not be calibrated anymore?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3waygeek:
My understanding is that the calibration goes with the battery & ROM; if you change one, the calibration is no longer valid.

However, the newer versions of Battery Monitor Widget do store information for multiple batteries, so if you switch you can just switch battery profiles in the app & should only have to recalibrate when you install a new ROM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronMit:
i cycle between 2 ankhers and 1 stock battery due to my dock charger set up.

I didnt recalibrate...theres no random variation or large inconsistancy in the visible battery percentage. Just stays on a 100% for ever so slightly longer or on critically low battery for a bit longer before the auto shutdown
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joey2o11:
Our phones don't require battery calibration
[Kindle Fire General] YellowRex:
I have a couple of questions about streaming your own content, rather than Amazon's, to the Fire that I'm hoping someone who has one can answer for me.

Can you stream content you upload to Amazon's content locker (5 GB free, or pay for more)? Is that limited to music or do videos work too? If so, what is the streaming quality like?

Can you stream content to the Fire over your home network, from a media server? If so, what kind of infrastructure and app support do you need?

Could you stream from a Wifi-enabled external drive, like a Seagate Satellite or a Kingston WiDrive?

I'm hoping the answer to one or more of these questions is yes, which will go a long way towards ameliorating the 6 GB usable internal storage. It's kind of sad considering my phone has 32 GB (16 internal and a 16 GB micro SD card).
[Kindle Fire General] e.mote:
The KF specs only lists MP4 and VP8 for video formats, which is standard for Android 2.3. As for 3rd-party video players, per Engadget review, "Amazon's own media players work well, but third party ones that offered better compatibility with file formats universally did not."
[Kindle Fire General] sdbonez:
one word - Skifta

The Skifta app is working great for me on the fire - and available in the amazon app store to boot. no hacking required and it's free.

Skifta.com

I choose my NAS w/some m4v files (encoded w/handbrake for atv2) as the source, my fire as the player, then it lets me browse, play, stream over 802.11 in my house.
[Kindle Fire General] Kernodle:
You can stream your stuff to your phone using Emit. It's in the Amazon marketplace so no sideloading.

https://www.emitapp.com/
[Kindle Fire General] YellowRex:
Thanks for the tips, I'll check out those apps as soon as I have my home NAS running again! :)

I can also answer one of my questions now that I have my Fire in hand:

Apparently you get unlimited storage for your own MP3s in Amazon's Cloud Player and they work great. Streaming quality is quite good. Haven't tried videos, books, or documents in the 5 GB space yet.
[Kindle Fire General] sdbonez:
Cool note about Skifta I forgot to mention...is that it's DLNA certified. In other words, if you already have DLNA video devices, it works great with them without having to add new servers and such.

(in my case, my NAS does DLNA out of the box so it just finds it and works) - think they also have a mini server for PC/MAC if you don't already have one.
[Kindle Fire General] orangeagent:
+1 for Skifta. Works great for me.
[Kindle Fire General] robopanda333:
Emit works awesomely! realtime encodes the files on demand and streams it. much better than what i was going to do (open up a aws account with e3 and cloudfront, and have a website for all my stuff after hand encoding all my media to mp4... ... ... ya...)

thnks kernodle
[Kindle Fire General] shaxs:
Do you know if it can re-encode and stream mkv files and make them work on the Fire?
[Kindle Fire General] terracode:
Engadget made too many assumptions in that statement '3rd party players ....universally did not'. This is inaccurate. The VLC Media Player (alpha) and Mobo Video Player Pro do many formats. Mobo works well and is smooth playing. VLC is still in alpha, but once final one is launched it will be more capable. VLC can play 1080P WMV, but is a bit choppy due to no hardware video acceleration optimizations incorporated in this early version. There are other players on the market that should work with the Fire if these two do.

Go flex satellite

Sideloaded goflex app and rockplayer app and streaming from the satellite hdd is working on the Fire.
[Kindle Fire General] sl0ttedpig:
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned PlayOn. It's free if you just use the local media streaming part of it, and it works really well. I have it on my Droid Incredible, PS3, Wii and on my KF, and I can stream remotely as well (even via 3G).

Unfortunately, it's PC only, and it's needs at least a dual core to run well.
[Kindle Fire General] terracode:
+1 : PlayOn is awesome. I use it currently with my Windows Home Server to stream to PS3, iPhone and Nexus S.
[Kindle Fire General] shaxs:
I just want to be able to put on some mkv files without re-encoding so I can watch on the plane.
[Kindle Fire General] robopanda333:
yes it takes my avis and mkvs and converts on the fly. bigger files will have to "load" a little bit because of that. you can also tel it to preencode files. all the settings are what the device asks for too, so if you decide you want a different resolution, just change it in the options. i really love it.
[Kindle Fire General] spyngamerman:
goodness noone mentioned subsonic?

http://www.subsonic.org/pages/index.jsp

stream music via app may need to sideload it(although its in amazon approval process still)

u can also use browser version for video streaming and it supports full screen i have a subsonic server setup on my home lan with all my music/movies (5Tb) now accessible anywhere with subsonic on my fire :D

best solution imho and if u happen to be handy with rss feeds for your content u desire u got yourself a much better solution then anythign amazon can put out and faster

Tethering on Omnia 7

I succeeded in getting tethering on my Omnia 7, as follows:

1. Make sure you have the update talked about here.

2. Your phone must be unlocked - I have the Chevron unlock.

3. Get the following xap file: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=772980&stc=1&d=1320528530 and use the Application Deployment tool to send it to your phone.

4. Install the Diagnosis app (if you haven't got it already) by typing ##634#.

5. In the Diagnosis app type *#9908#, select "System Tweaks". Press Save, then Close, then restart the phone.

6. You now have "Internet sharing" in your system setup menu.

7. If you now lost your cellular data connection (I did and almost panicked ;)) restore it by using Samsung's Network Profile app - worked for me.

8. Everything working perfectly for me now!

But do you need to wipe battery stats after each flash of kernel?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matridom:
No.

What you should be doing is a Battery Calibration each time you change ROMs.

People have different views on how to calibrate your battery, but i follow these simple steps

1. Bump charge to as close to 100% as you can get,

2. wipe battery stats,

3. drain till phone goes off,

4. plug phone in to charge and power up, let it charge to max without bump charging.

Done.

Im quite new to htc and im coming from a samsung infuse that has 16gb internal memory. is it normal that my sd card is where everything gets stored? It seems that since ive been using the evo3d the amount of space keeps getting smaller and smaller.

[HTC EVO 3D] fredrick.brewer:
go into the settings > applications and throw everything to the sd card. typically they install to internal and if written to move them, you can put them on sd. 3D isnt too bad with space, but the OG EVO was bad and would constantly fill up.

yeh i know that the internal memory wasn't a full 16gb it was taken up by the android/samsung stuff. but then again I have another 14gb to do wtvr i want with plus my sd card which wasn't cluttered. I guess I just need to upgrade my sd card.
