[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neon01:
From someone with a last-gen ISF-calibrated 60" Kuro plasma in my living room - I think you completely nailed it with this statement (though I don't know what you mean about the res).

Still, despite the hype, I do think the display is a little better than you're giving it credit for. IMO, resolution really does trump color fidelity (it's a phone, not a color managed workflow device), so I would put this display above everything but the apple retina display, and I think it even edges this out simply because the retina is too damned small. I've been saying it for some time, but if apple actually puts a 4"+ display with "retina" PPI in an iphone, I'm gonna be faced with a tough decision...

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 AM ----------

I owned the Note - it's not even in the running. Low PPI takes it right out of contention for "best" IMO. And I don't know why you gave best colors to the S2? Should have been the iphone, unless you mean "colors with most punch".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flanimal:
I bought by GN because of the high screen resolution. I consider a 1280 pentile screen superior to an 800 screen.

HOWEVER, while I prepared to put up with pentile at this resolution, I do hate the idea of pentile. I am not bothered about colour hues, banding, ghosting etc. The things that do bother me about pentile are as follows:

The GPU has to do the work for the full 1280x720 resolution, yet not all of this work is converyed on the display.

If you do a screen shot with the power and volume button, what you get is a true 1280x720 picture which you can display on your PC. This is not the same as what the phone display shows.

Finially, and most significantly for me, is the following. I like retro computer sites, such as C64 and Amiga, their websites and their games. I would like to go to these retro sites and view the screenshots of the C64 games as intened, at 100% zoom so that each pixel should have a 1to1 mapping. But the pentile display does not allow this, so resolution is lost. Effectively the C64 screenshots are lower resolution on the display than on the original C64! Worse still, when the C64 screenshot has patterns, such as chequered areas, these render with interference on a pentile screen. Of course I can zoom in to ensure that each C64 pixel is represented, but interference still occurs unless the proportions are a match, maybe 200% or 400 zoom.

I'm not complaining, the screen is as good as you can currently get. But I am just stating that I consider pentile nasty, and would love to have a true 1280x720 display instead.

But I see the glass as half full rather than half empty. Now is an excellent time to buy a mobile. The GN is great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wallslide:
I have a Galaxy Nexus and feel the screen is almost perfect. In a specific situation I can definitely see the effects of the pentile subpixel pattern however. When there is pure red text with a small and skinny font on a black background, it's easy to tell that the there's not enough red pixel density to make the letters look smooth. I noticed this on Anki, the flashcard app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crazeco:
I came from a Motorola Photon. On that screen you could see the negative effects of a pentile layout CLEARLY. It drove me away from the phone and made me hate pentile displays.

I then switched to an HTC Rezound - which looked fantastic in comparison.

Now I have a Nexus. I cannot see anything that would make me believe this is a pentile screen. What I do notice is some banding and minor color shifts which were not present on the Rezound. Brightness adjustments help fix this issue. This has nothing to do with pentile technology.

I walked in with a bias against pentile, that bias is quickly evaporating.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eus107709:
I'm glad somebody was able to appreciate the analogy.

To be clear, I don't think its a bad display by any means. It's just not as incredible as people make it out to be. The over saturation bugs me and I'm sure I'm not alone. I bought my wife the rezound so I'm constantly reminded of the flaws, as well as advantages of this display. For UI purposes, this display is phenomenal, movies and pics.. meh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patrickl:
I put things in perspective.

It's completely useless to say "I can see graining when I set the screen to very low brightness and therefore it's horrible"

Sure it does, but that minute disadvantage is utterly meaningless in the the overwhelming advantages the screen offers.

Overall the combination of the amazing contrast and fantastic resolution are simply unbeaten.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melvin345:
I got my gn like 6 hours ago, screen is pretty good but i hate that when i low the brightness all the way it looks so bad, i have to leave it in the middle, i dont know what samsung and google were thinkin when they did that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vash1053:
I think that every pentile phone prior to the GNex looks like garbage. IMO, the only people that think those screens look good 1.) Have poor vision, 2.) Don't know any better, or 3.) Paid a lot of money for their phone and convinced themselves that there are no negatives to their purchase. Pentile on these phones makes it seem as though you're looking at them through a bug screen.

Now that you know where I'm coming from, take everything you thought you knew about pentile and throw it out the window. The GNex screen is awesome, which is strange because nothing is fundamentally different about the technology behind it. The difference is all in the resolution. The GNex's pixel density is high enough to virtually eliminate that hideous pentile cross hatching effect. It's not 100% gone, and if you look closely enough you can still see it. But it has reached a point where I-- an admitted pentile hater-- can not only tolerate it, but admire its beauty.

I was skeptical about this screen when it was first announced. But after seeing it in person, I concede that, given sufficient resolution, pentile screens can look amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patrickl:
They were thinking that you shouldn't need to set the screen to be so dim. Simply use a dark background color and you'll save loads of power already.

Setting the screen to dim then hardly matters anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmbeid:
With the brightness all the way down, my screen has a very light crosshatching. I dont mind it - gives the pages texture.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lambda30:
This is EXACTLY what I was saying. On 0% brightness, whites tend to have something that resembles a paper page texture. It is annoying if you really want true white, but I like it. It's interesting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Korov:
I agree with most of the others. I have had several androids this year as well as an iPhone with retina display. I despised pentile matrix and amoled...until this phone. It really looks great, aside from the "dirty" whites.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FishTaco:
It matches your teeth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zetsumeikuro:
Nope that observation was made looking at text on webpages. No magnifying glass. Pentile is garbage, but you gotta make due with what you have. I could just imagine how much better this screen would be sans pentile.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dario3040:
Well according to Anandtech the pentile in the Super Amoled HD display has been changed slightly for the better (not counting resolution.)

The geometry of the green subpixel has been changed a little bit, making it more similar to the other subpixels, which is supposed to make it clearer I guess?

Also the resolution is sick, I don't think you will have any problems with it.

Couple of close-up pictures of the Galaxy Note display.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noobdeagle:
blue tinge on oled screens is normal due to how they counteract the significantly lower life span of blues in oled panels having said that my nexus has no blue hue at all so kudos for Google foe setting the colours right
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dario3040:
Protip: White text, and black background when you macro amoled displays.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patrickl:
Not when you want to show the matrix. Which is what I was showing most of all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AceRockola:
best display ever...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Same here. Galaxy Nexus screen looks really good. I rarely even have the brightness level up above 30% and at that level the colors are vibrant, detail is very sharp, no pixelation is noticeable at all and it does not look yellow. It is a beautiful screen that for my great surprise, does not kill my battery as much as I feared.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikesal57:
Hi All..

I'm deciding to upgrade to this monster from the 1st Samsung Epic 4g

With all things being equal..(mostly location) will this load web pages faster?

The Epic was much slower when I compared mine vs a friends T-MOBILE Samsung equivalent phone while on 3G a few days ago...

Should I take the plunge???

Do it man, and don't even look back! I had the tmobile vibrant back in the day, and this thing is far superior. Everything is better, browser, tw launcher, gps, etc etc.

This will be very useful

Hey, can this be done on my SGS2 ?? I have the same model (KY-QF9700) just laying around, i already have a MicroUSB to Normal USB cable for my phone, it work for my USB mouse, was wondering will it work for the USB LAN also.
[Acer Iconia A500] christcrusher:
same here. got this adapter and noticed that there are android-drivers on the CD but i dont know how to install them and no ideas how to use it. any tutorials or hint here ? search didnt bring any solutions 4 me.

:cool:
[Acer Iconia A500] haag498:
First off: Make sure you've got busybox installed. Then try 'insmod qf9700_android.ko' (without the quotes) inside the directory where qf9700_android.ko is located. If this tells you something about incompatibilities, you'll have to compile the driver yourself. For that you'll need the Android SDK and ARM crosscompiler on your computer, along with the sources for your kernel (if it's thor's, you're screwed, he's in violation of the GPL because of that). Then run the makefile with your crosscompiler (adjusting the paths to fit your setup first, of course) and insmod the resulting qf9700_android.ko on your tab...

The insane way to go is trying the same trick on your tab using a debian chroot instead of the Android SDK... You won't need a crosscompiler then, as the android ARM gcc (crosscompiler) produces almost the same code as debian's ARMEL gcc (and it's certainly compatible)...

If all goes well, you'll have a working driver either way, though painful experience suggests that you're in for a rough time... wish you luck, you'll need it. If you're completely stuck, try posting the files, so others can give it a shot (I will if I find the time).

Theoretically, yes... if it recognizes the adapter at all it'll work just the same way I described above.

Heehee - that's what happens when you only have 2hrs sleep. Yes I meant firmware.

With new firmware, I'm now getting different errors coming up.

First it was 'unfortunately, the process com.htc.bg stopped'

I couldn't get Facebook to sync either. I've now wiped data flashed rom for 3rd time and same issue - I managed to add my FB account which I didn't get to do last time but keep getting same errror.

*When trying to set up my FB sync an error that says 'Unfortunately internet has stopped'

The 'Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped' one also keeps popping up but not as often.

:(

At least the new version of HTC Sync works!

1. I couldn't seems to do Hotspot tether for my iPad,

2. I couldn't locate to enable "Unknown Resource" installation,

3. Would RCMix ICE v3.0 resolve above 2 mentioned? I hope someone who has installed to help verify.

Lastly, thank you very much for keeping this thread so informative.
[HTC Sensation] robocik:
strange stuff...

i flashed first on 3.12 everything worked fine, then i flashed the 3.24 firmware and reflashed the rom, got the bg fc, so i rewiped and reflashed and everything is fine since then...

i saw some database and logging errors when had the bg fc's, will check that again, will make a version of the rom with all stuff in it (will skip the cleaning logg **** part) and we'll see if that helps, maybe something hidden in framework requires the logg ****, but strange that one flash it happens and other flash it is not happening... :/
[HTC Sensation] Sulphy:
I shall try a full wipe and reflash again as you did... see if that works.... am busy attempting the other fix that Chris gave me... see if that helps at all! :) shall report back!
