Just posting an updated video my rooted Kindle Fire. I'm now running CyanogenMod 7 with the Android Market, Google Maps (using WiFi for location), Swype, Go Launcher, Google Music, Zmooth (replaces the back, home and menu buttons with swipe gestures), Live Wallpaper and the lock screen disabled.

Says this video is private.
[Kindle Fire General] airmaxx23:
I fixed it, not sure how that happened, thanks for pointing it out.
[Kindle Fire General] Takenover83:
Thanks for showing off zmooth. Great app I was missing out on. Gives my power button a rest in cm7. Lot more convenient swiping a gesture then messing with that poorly placed power button.
[Kindle Fire General] airmaxx23:
I used it all the time with my Droid X. I've found that setting the sensitivity to 2 (higher) works best, once you get used to it, you'll see is a great app. I'm using it over other options because it's quick and doesn't get in the way.
[Droid X General] bmt10:
Wasn't thinking and posted in the section for the phone I'm currently using instead of the one I am trying to fix...
[Droid X General] bigshotrob22:
It sounds like you need to update your bootloader to 30.04 and then you can sbf to GB.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] FloridaPhil:
Love this tablet but this last few days it has started to get really warm on occasion.

On the left side, about an inch in from the SD card slot, the temperature really builds up quickly starting first on the back of the device and eventually getting so hot on the glass it becomes uncomfortable to hold and to swipe. I've seen 48 degrees!

I have noticed this happening when using Dolphin HD browser and particularly if Skype is running in the background.

I wiped the tab, didn't reinstall from market and just loaded Dolphin and it didn't make any difference.

I'm guessing faulty device since there are only a few isolated reports of this online.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] mohawkx:
Really strange, Phil. Based on your recommendation in "other" forums I turned in my Nook Tab and got a GTab7Plus and I'm just lovin it. Does everything I'd hoped it would do and more I haven't even figured out. So far, (knock on wood) I haven't gotten the Screen of Death nor has the unit gotten hot for any reason and I'm using dolphin browser exclusively. So......you may have a defective unit. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] FloridaPhil:
Yeah, I think it was faulty. I took it back to Best Buy and they had not had any other returns for this issue.

Unfortunately they are also out of stock so I don't currently have a tablet at all! Seeing what is coming down the pike in the way of tablets I might just wait and see what transpires in the next 3 months. If I get antsy then I'll just pick up another GT7+ (or back to a Nook Tablet if the CM9 project advances quickly).

Also, do you see a color cast on yours at all? I noticed that when there was a white background, for instance reading a book on Kindle or Nook apps, the right lower side of the page had a warm tinge - pink/peach colored. It was quite irritating.

Having issues with Nook app opening my Nook ebooks.

FloridaPhil:

I have received my 7+ and downloaded and installed the Nook and Kindle apps without a hitch. The Kindle books are fine but I seem to be having a problem opening my Nook books. Darn, I am in the midst of a great book and hate reading on my phone.

Any tips on how best to install and manage my Nook ebooks? And, I have a 32gb sd card which I haven't installed but plan to tonight. Will that make a difference? Should I "format" the card before installing on the 7+? How does that work?

Thanks a bunch! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] wfellis:
I noticed on the nook software that I needed to open the software and then reopen it before the book would load. Second time is a charm I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rendler:
Mine as well, in the same location as you specified too. Gets damn hot in that location with I'm using it in the car for navigating with Google Maps and it's plugged into the charger. Also in the same scenario the charge level is still going down and not up :(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aeon101:
I' ve been using VTL Launcher and had some previous issues with my home wifi (couldn't reconnect so my tab was always trying to find it again and again). After resetting router and mainly uninstalling VTL Launcher my tab stopped to be hot and battery life increased rapidly. So I was almost decided tonreturn it due to this problems but since then everything is finally ok and start to enjoy this tab (previously had GT7 original and Note).

Regarding navigation with google maps- consider that there is also huge use of data amount so warmness is probable. I'm using Sygis Aura and has no problems with hottness and also not original car charger has enough power to charge on the roads.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] gilgomez:
So far haven't noticed the tab getting hot. Just trying to figure out how to use Kies. What a friggin nightmare! Why have they not simplified the Kies interface? It is so convoluted!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] FloridaPhil:
Interesting - but mine was totally stock. Yeah, I had added a ton of apps but it was running regular TouchWizz. My little Nook Color running CM7 has exactly the same apps and doesn't even get warm.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] akasan:
what are you using kies for? my computer (win 7) didn't recognize my tab until

i installed kies, it also installed drivers so i can now transfer files
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aeon101:
To FloridaPhil: And how long is your battery life? Is wifi ok? Well I' ve noticed then, that our tab doesn't have still very apropriate task managing and this can be causeb exactly by this. Take a look in settings, applications and battery use...I couldn't believa my eyes but even I'm using good task manager with automatic shutndowns of slected apps, there are still huge amount of running apps that drain battery and may cause getting hot. Next thing as well was a fact, that even when wifi connection held perfectly, there was still word 'searching' each couple of seconds (take a look in wifinsettings...)- so next possible reason for getting warm...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
It's only searching because your at the wifi settings screen. If you are at the screen where different wifi networks can be selected, android (logically) thinks you might want to select a different network, so scans. If you STAY on that screen, it assumes you want to keep scanning (why else would you stay on that screen?)

This is something that all wifi enabled android devices do. It's NOT scanning every few seconds if you aren't on that specific settings screen...

Gary
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aeon101:
Thanks Gary for reasonable explanation, yes this is logical. I was just confused from this, cause not Galaxy Note, nor previous Tab or Streak was behaving like this. But is true that this is my first honeycomb machine and I may not realise this before or it had been different in settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
My Galaxy SII (gingerbread, AT&T, SGH-I777) does this as well. Even my iPhone does it. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] gilgomez:
I'm using Kies Air to wirelessly transfer and synch my contacts, calendar, etc....... Experimented and have transferred photos and some other files. Also worked using the USB cable and my Windows 7 recognized and installed drivers. It recognized the SD card as my E drive.

Regarding the heating up issue, so far I have not experienced this. The battery use is under control when I turn off all wireless when I leave my home.

Getting used to the Touchwiz interface but I also installed Go Launcher EX and use that sometimes.

Video playback is awesome on this little tab; last night I was watching movie trailers and was surprised with the sound as well. The Nook's sound was always a bit weak.

I installed an anti-glare screen film and it is awesome for reading. Doesn't detract from the beautiful display and the fonts are crisp.

Regarding opening my Nook books I realized that it worked as soon as I installed my SD card and I downloaded my books so I wouldn't have to deal with having a wireless connection to read my books.

Playing around with the wallpapers and customizing the Samsung screens and installed a super cool "steam punk skull" live wallpaper and it is amazing! Found it free via the Amazon app store....it is fantastic! I also found other beautiful live wallpapers via the Amazon app store including snow scenes.

The tab connected flawlessly to my Samsung Galaxy 4G T-Mobile phone's access point and used that to stream Pandora and download some Kindle books. It was done in my office which doesn't have the best T-Mobile network access and it was surprisingly fast and smooth. No stuttering of the music and emails and Facebook worked great.

I ordered the 6' long usb cable for the tab via Amazon and it has shipped; hopefully it is well matched and charges up the tab just as well as the stock 3' shortie cable. I noted other comments regarding the slow charging of the tab and found that turning off the wifi or simply shutting it down speeds up the charging dramatically.

So that is my report so far and let me say I am enjoying the 7+ tab immensely.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rendler:
It got to 40C (104F) today while I was playing GTA. The device it's naked (no covers or anything). I'm going to take it to service centre next week :-(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] DevilBeyond:
Well i guess thats pretty normal, mine goes up to 42C sometimes.. I guess it depends on your surrounding and climate.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rendler:
You sure it's a normal thing (this temperature range)? I'm here in Thailand so the ambient temperature is hot to begin with, but the thing is; with prolonged used my hands get uncomfortable.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] DevilBeyond:
So far im still comfortable with it and its not much of a problem to me, im using a case together with it so i cant really feel the heat.. You could try taking it in to where you bought it and see what they have to say ;D
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rendler:
Just told my wife, she said her galaxy s2 gets hot as well, so I asked her to touch mine ;-)

She says it's about the same. So i really don't know what to think any more, but I'll take it in anyways just for peace of mind.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] gilgomez:
I wonder if this is something specific to the Samsung processor used in these Honeycomb tablets?

We should check out the help forums at the Samsung support site to see if anyone else is reporting the heat and if there is a fix or if Samsung is patching the OS?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rendler:
Just got a case yesterday. Not seeing a heat trapping and temperature increasing effect with the case installed. Added benefit is that it's a lot more comfortable to hold when it does hit 40 degrees.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] ps000000:
My P6200L (Thailand) also get hot quick (high brightness set)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] M7amad90:
I thought that I'm the only one !

I have the same problem!, Sometimes my lovely tab plus ( 3G edition ) switches off by itself ! it's called SOD i guess, plus i notice that it's hot ( warmer ) when this thing happen !

I got an update from samsung over wifi but it seems that the issue isn't solved yet :mad:

For god's sake, ALARM is a very important thing maaan !!! :(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Gonzoman888:
Apps running high on CPU continuously will create heat !

I've noticed this recently with a recent upgrade of app Pocket Informant (1.55.5508) - I just runs continuously at CPU 40% (drains the battery like crazy & heats up the device). I now have to kill the app after using it.

I also own a ASUS transformer (Android OS 3.2.1) - I didn't face the same issue with the same version of Pocket Informant.

I am guessing it's an OS issue (Android 3.1) on the P6200....
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] lanwarrior:
How did you know it was Pocket Informant that causing it? Did you use some apps that do continous monitoring?

I have Pocket Informant but from Amazon (was FAOTD).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dexterstyles:
I do notice after a long play of video or some other processor intensave funtion it get a little warm. I would not say hot, still functions fine so I just figured it's a thing with the fast processor.

SOD problem potently solved!!! :D BY Joe Marshall

hey guys,

Im Joe Marshall

I have been running my g tab+ at 1600MHz from day one and then i got the SOD issue a week in:( i changed the firmware to XXKL7 and i use it a lot with high definition games and movies i have had no issues what so every from the firmware change its great now. i am still running at 1600MHz. do you think it could be a firmware issue or a faulty batch? my tab was originally a Honk Kong tab and i have changed the firmware to the XXKL7 European version with Odin v1.85. if anything i use it more now than i did before. I am yet to experience any issues so my conclusion would be the hardware accelerator in the other firmwares is messed up their for messing with the change in velocity in the g-tab. problem potently solved :D

if this worked for you please press thanks button :D:p
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] skeeterpro:
Heat

FWIW I've only experienced what I would call excessive heat once. And that was when I was charging my GTab 7+ and a pillow fell over it effectively blocking it from the open air. I discovered it several hours later and it was very warm to touch. (It was also in a case then). I removed the charger and let it set for a few hours turned off. Cooled down and held my breath when booting. Thankfully, all seems well. No damage.

As we all know heat is a huge computer killer. Making sure there's adequate air flow (as there are no fans) is vital IMO. Heat will be generated as a normal by-product of all computers so care must be taken.

Not saying all issues defined in here on this thread are due to what I experienced but thought I would pass on what I found.

Tab heats and switches off

I have bought this Tab 2 weeks ago. I should say, I am indeed delighted by its versatility of replacing a phone and my Lappy for Web browsing, voice and video call and chat, Maps and many more.

But i am noticing this problem as well.

Its heats up, surprisingly it heats more in sleep (lock) mode rather when awake. I literally need to switch to other hand after some time.

After sometime when i unlock (switch on) the screen it never resumes back, it rather restarts.

And during this time if anyone makes a voice call it gives a ringing signal to them, but in actual never rings at my end.

Frequency is, it happens once in 2 days.

Otherwise the tab is a shear pleasure to work on..
[HTC Rezound] doncari:
Hey guys, so my Rezound is doing the whole bootlooping thing (boots up, loads for 5 seconds, reboots) and I've tried the *#*#4636#*#*, changing the network to auto, fix, but it doesn't help (infact, the network was already on auto). Also, my phone still instantly reboots even without the sim card in the phone or the back cover on. I have also tried safe mode with no luck. I am hoping to avoid a factory reset (my stuff isn't exactly backed up, which I found out after googling what backup assistant actually does) or a replacement. The only thing I can think of that I did which was unusual prior to the problem was using my google navigation. Does anyone have any ideas?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
I don't know that there's anything that can be suggested outside of trying a factory reset. Doesn't sound like you're rooted with a custom recovery to try to do a backup then wipe.
[HTC Rezound] doncari:
Nope, it's not rooted - it's more or less factory standard plus apps / settings / data etc.

Would it be possible to, prior to the reset (if that is required / no one has any other suggestions), access any of the saved data, not on the SD card, through a usb or other means despite the bootlooping?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
You can try parking it in hboot. power down, then power up holding volume down. The system should be accessible via USB but I'm not sure what you're hoping to get from it.
[HTC Rezound] Bradh024:
That happened to me before I rooted. I was able to get it to stop by pulling the battery and sim card, and doing a factory reset from hboot. It seemed to work for me.
[HTC Rezound] doncari:
I tried a factory reset from the hboot and zero joy, still infinite looping... ironically, no matter what I set the network to in the 4636, it reboots into the auto setting - the one that's suppose to fix it and isn't. Am I out of options except replacing it?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
As far as I know, probably. Only thing I have left is to try to run an RUU. It doesn't require root and is supposed to save you from these situations. You can find the stock RUUs on Scott's website. Or in the dev forum here.
[HTC Rezound] majorhunadadun:
There's another thread about this. There is no permanent fix as of yet. Here's what ya do for now. Pull the battery and remove your sim card. Replace battery, boot back up. If you have LTE switch installed, go into the app and you'll see your radio is on WCDMA. Switch it to CDMA auto. Power down, pull cover and replace sim card. Boot back up and you're good to go! Lemme know how it goes!

Here's that thread.

Major, I appreciate the help, but I know about that fix, that's what I meant about the network fix 4636 not working...

I'll give the RUU a try and hope for the best
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
maybe......try to put it into WCDMA mode? lol try the exact opposite of what my thread was about...like, boot it, put it into wcdma, let it bootloop a few times because its in wdcdma..THEN try the fix in the thread?

...idk man, that sounds really ****ty :( if a factory reset didn't fix it, then i've got NO idea. you may have to get a replacement :(
[HTC Rezound] doncari:
Alrighty, I'll try reverse psychology on the damn thing haha... followed by RUU if needed... followed by a replacement - I appreciate the help and quick responses everybody, thanks =) I'll keep you updated.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
hope it works out for you! it'd be funny if the reverse thing worked lol :p
[HTC Rezound] pkopalek:
The stuck ROM on this phone occasionally causes boot loops.

If you take the battery cover off, it will boot up all the way (with no network).

As soon as you put it back on, back to boot loops.

Good thing for root and recovery and weekly nandroid backups.

Brutal
[HTC Rezound] DaPitt84:
If that doesn't work, it might be the phone.

I had that issue
[HTC Rezound] plcline:
I've a similar problem. Loops without SIM and safe mode didn't work either. Network fix doesn't help. It boots to the HTC screen, blanks for less than a second, back to HTC screen and then all the way up where it will run for around 45 seconds to a minute then drop dead reboot, repeat. Factory reset didn't help. Relocking didn't help. RUU didn't help.

It did it's first loop from Copilot. GPS problem?

Also, if this has any value, got this error the first time I tried to relock it:

C:\android>fastboot oem lock

...

(bootloader) Lock successfully...

(bootloader) TZ_HTC_SVC_DISABLE ret = 134086000 (0x7FDFD70)

And this the second time

C:\android>fastboot oem lock

...

(bootloader) Device was already locked!

OKAY [ 0.007s]

finished. total time: 0.008s

Idea's?

Also, powering down just reboots it again.
[HTC Rezound] brisdaddy1207:
My Rezound is now doing the same thing lol.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
wait, RIGHT now? mine JUST did it when i was done snapping a few pictures. wtf?
[HTC Rezound] brisdaddy1207:
Lol it did right before my post lol.
[HTC Rezound] brisdaddy1207:
If you noticed I had to use my tablet to post but the 4636 thing did work you have to keep the back cover off the phone so it doesn't get signal.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavsoldier19d:
I did a search for this issue and could not find anything...

About a couple months ago, the bottom right and bottom left hand corners of the screen will taking turns going dim as if the settings for the screen brightness were changed just for the bottom corners. I know of the light bleed issue, but apparently i'm having the opposite effect. At first, i thought maybe it was a software issue and have done a full wipe and flashed different roms and i'm still experiencing this issue since then. For ****s and giggles, I tapped on the corner of the screen and the dimness went away. The dimness comes back eventually. I am tapping on the corner of the screen about as hard as a light knock. If you knock it enough times, it will begin to flicker a little bit. Obviously, this is a hardware issue. My TF has not been dropped, damaged, liquid spilled on, etc. Was wondering if anyone has experienced this before, and if there is anything i can do short of doing a warranty return?
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
get chainfire from the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.cf3d&feature=search_result

optionally, u can get the pro version by paying https://market.android.com/details?...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImV1LmNoYWluZmlyZS5jZjNkLnBybyJd

now,download the PowerVR Plugin from the attachment below.

open chainfire, click install plugins/shaders and install the zip.

then surf up OpenGL and then to the drop down "use plugin" and select "PowerVR",tick "Hide CF3D ID". come back to chainfire main directory and click "Fix Market Settings". tada :D :D...DONE!!!! :D :D

[LG Optimus Black] jimakos29:
do you know what you talking about? you need nvidia plugins to play tegra games,qualcom to play qualcom and powervr to play power vr, so if your device has powervr and there is something you dont need then it is powervr plugin (and even then you may still need it say gameloft releases a powervr game for some device but your is not officially supported). If you had a tegra phone you wouldnt need nvidia and so on.... As for Shadowgun it works on most devices there is an all device version out...
