[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mdelaney1986:
screen adjuster

There must be a way to adjust the system r g b levels. There ARE parameters somewhere in a file that determing the rgb gains at a hardware level. Someone just needs to figure it out. Samsung displays (amoled) seem to turn greenish blue over time (and most lack red out of the box) because samdung factory calibrations are in favor of planned obsolescence and prophet from repairs. Customer satisfaction is second here.

Screen adjuster just creates an overlay and only seems to change the color of greys and not whites thus creating a color correction at the cost of a non linear greyscale. The correct way to do this is to adjust the system rgb levels that are buired in the kernel and amoled controller ic registers. This is what faux display does but finding a kernel that support faux display is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

perhaps someone can explain how to or create an app to adjust the white point and not just the greys because this is the problem...

I think I made a mistake trying to use adb shell.

Was able to get my Evo shift 4G rooted. That went smoothly first try. Did the steps manually. Wanted to downgrade to 2.2 from 2.3.3

Was trying to copy misc.img to SD card root

and it seems to have copied misc.img to a file called sdcard overwriting whatever was there before. Sorry for the noob question, but was the sdcard file a file that tells how to mount the sdcard device?

Seems like mounting sdcard fails

How can I fix my mistake? I tried Ext2explore to read PG06IMG looking for the file, but I didn't find it.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Looks like you did :( . Did you have a backup copy of the card?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Destructor D:
After some more reading, I figured out things were not working correctly. (Well obviously. lol) Not sure what the file called sddisk was, but I just deleted it. The path to the files on the sd card, was actually at... /mnt/sdcard/

I modified this line...

To

and the command worked.

After I did that, the rest of the downgrade to 2.2 worked well. I'm happy.

Another strange occurrence. There was another instruction.

This wouldn't work for me. got the error. 'rm' is only for files, not directories. i had to use the command 'rmdir' on the empty directory.

In the end I do have success with the downgrade. permanent root.

Well glad you got it sorted out.

JotPad v1.1

Hi guys, I'm posting my app here, and I'd like you guys to let me know what you think about it, and what should be improved. Just post in this thread and I'll be notified and get back to you.

Here's a short description (so you don't get bored), for the full description just visit the app page.

Some of the features are Live Tile and multitouch support, as well as various colors and image backgrounds and shake to clear.

I like it :)

How about allowing multiple drawings and saving items: inside the app, or as a JPEG, or share by e-mail.

Rated 5 stars :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] fiinix:
Oh thank god! I have been searching for a draw/note app that support zoom, and here we have it; have a thanks mate! ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Timerever:
Thanks mate! Yeah, I have the same ideas as well, but hadn't considered the share by e-mail option before, thanks for the suggestion! :-)

Thank you for your support, I'll have more stuff added when I have the time (doing this on my free time). If you feel like the app is missing something just let me know and I'll try to implement it.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] mirolg:
I love it too! so cool, clever and clear= best handwriting app by faaaaaaaaar!

shake to clear screen :cool: I rate your thread and your app on market place with

ps. can you set the pen active as default by start?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Timerever:
Thanks!!

About setting the pen active as default on start, I will look into that. But I'll explain my rationale of why I did it that way. When you swap between apps the guidelines for app developers say that the app should preserve all of it's environment, so if you were erasing lines on my app, and then you went for some facebook browsing and then came back to my app you should still be in erasing mode since that is what you were doing when you left.

I suppose I could set the pen as active when you start the app and retain the drawing/erasing mode when just multi tasking?

EDIT: I just noticed you have a tablet with Windows 8. :-O Cool stuff, how does Windows 8 work on that? I've only used it on a regular laptop. What about the battery life, does it last long?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] glowwormccc:
Good. I will have a try. It sounds nice.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Timerever:
Thanks, let me know what you think after you gave it a good try. :-)

A simple but useful app~

very gd!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] frakius:
Hi works great in app, the live tile is a little wonky though, text gets cut off and moved up a lot of the time, ie if you write one word on a angle it puts it top left and cut off, or if you write 4 words underneath each other, can only see the bottom 2 the others have moved up (there is space below so room on the tile to display) other than that love it.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Timerever:
I know what you mean, I've made it like that because of the following problem. The drawing page is rectangular but the live tile is perfectly square. How do you fit something that's rectangular (to fit the 15:9 screen of the phone) into something that's square (the live tile is obviously 1:1)? I had 2 options, either distort the rectangular drawing to fit, or to crop a square from the centre of the drawing. I used the latter, I cropped a square from the centre. That's why the live tile is missing the top and bottom of the drawing.

One last option would be making the pages square so all of the drawing can fit on the tile, but I thought it would look weird and wouldn't fit the phone's screen. But if you do have an idea on how this should work by all means let me know ok? Thank you very much for your comment! :-)

I am having this problem now. on og droid steel droid rom.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
I had a similar problem once on my kindle and eventually what i wound up doing was going into recovery and flashing the ROM from scratch like it was brand new. Wipe System/Data/DataData/Cache/Dalvik/anything else you like to wipe and reflash the ROM (and the newest applicable gapps) and see if that helps. It did the trick for me, it is an odd error and I feel like the easiest thing is to start from the beginning when something like that happens and hope that you don't run into it again.

EDIT: of course make a nandroid first, in case it doesn't work :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenewbigmack:
I had the mismatced UIDs issue when I installed a stock 2.3.4 Rom. It alerted me on the first boot up, then never alerted me again. I had to install a different Rom because many features didn't work. Hope this helps!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulhat:
I did try reflashing the stock ROM (provided by the producer) without success, still having the same problem.

You mention reflashing the gapps, would that only work if you got the Cynogenmod installed or will they work with any ROM?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
Were you able to root/flash this through recovery? With stock ROMs the GAPPS are typically included (unless the company making the tablet wishes to use a different market so they don't have to pay royalties to google).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulhat:
Yes it does ship with gapps but the user mentioned re-installing them (maybe even upgrading). I wondered that if you can find different gapps it could make it work but I don't know how you would go about it. The gapps for Cynogen are in a zip that has to be installed using Cynogen recovery console, not sure how to install them manually.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
If you want to install a newer market you can do it as long as you're rooted. That being said, so long as you're not on an ancient device (maybe you're that lucky with the chinese tablet) it is supposed to update automatically. At any rate, if you have SU then you just need to drop the vending.apk into /system/app and give it the following permissions:

[X][X][ ]

[X][ ][ ]

[X][ ][ ]

EDIT: You might only need marketupdater.apk things have changed since they changed the market to googleplay so I am not as familiar with it as I used to be when I originally rooted/ added the market to my Kindle Fire :)

All I do anymore to get gapps is flash the gapps.zip through recovery but I don't know a whole lot about your chinese tablet so I can't really give input on its recovery setup haha

Hi,

Its unhappy to me, my Note is just fall down from table, screen glass has break, the phone is still work as normal.

Im finding a screen replacement on eBay, price is expensive from 250 to 300$.

I dont know is need to buy glass together digiter or not. if only glass maybe cheaper, and where i can find it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] jusutus:
Hi,

sorry to hear that you have broken your Note. Unfortunately it's not possible to replace the glass only. You need to purchase the complete glass/digitizer/AMOLED assembly.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] intruda119:
If the Note is put together like the SGS2 was, buy everything assembled already. Dont buy just the digitizer, it will cause you massive headaches. You can try cnn.cn

Yes, the same answer today from local Samsung service, and price is about 280$

Im going to replace this and never believe about unbrokable gorilla glass again.

Take care with a Note and dont give it other one to try it, just because the Note is big upnormal smartphone, if not daily user may be broken it.

Hey folks,

I've recently tried installing the latest version of the Siyah kernel (I had CL-Root before that).

I installed the Kernel from the zip on my sdcard,

after that I went to the main CWM menu and chose Wipe Data/Factory Reset on the menu,

everything went smooth until the following line:

Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!

I tried rebooting afterwards and went into a bootloop.

I re-installed the previous ROM I had using ODIN (this re-installed CL-Root which came with the ROM again) and tried rebooting, and again - bootloop.

I entered CWM again, and again chose Wipe Data/Factory Reset, and got the same error as above, but this time, after I rebooted, the O/S went up just fine...

Has anyone ever bumped into this? I really want to upgrade my kernel to Siyah, how can I do that without having this problem again?
