[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyVegas:
Hey there. After reading a few threads on various sites as well as on XDA-Developers I decided to make this thread. I have recently got a new Samsung Galaxy S2 (i9100P on Orange UK) and I realized that underneath the screen there seem to be small dots. At first I realized this under direct light from a desk lamp, the dot on the top middle of the screen can only be seen under direct light at a certain angle, it looks like there's something on the actual glass because it seems to reflect making two dots in the same area. After doing further research I have found out that other people have been having similar problems, I also realized that under different angles I can actually find more of these dots around the screen when I look very close.

This does not seem to affect the screen at all whether it's on or off, it can only be seen when looking really close, with direct light pointing onto the screen and under certain angles.

Upon further research I ended up testing the screen with a black background in a completely dark room and I saw even more strange things which I'm not exactly sure how to explain, something that looks like lines all over the screen. I then read about people who've been using a sleeping app on which this issue was even more visible. I downloaded such an app and realized that in pure darkness the screen when it dims out with the app on does have weird lines and isn't pure black. The lines are black whereas he background is more of a really dark grey colour that glows. It's hard to explain, especially when your in a rush so I will throw up two images that describe the issue.

Issue 1: Dots

oi43.tinypic.com/21dk1ft.jpg

This is an example of the dots which can only be seen in direct light under certain angles.

Issue 2: Lines?

oi44.tinypic.com/2jg2xsi.jpg

This is something along the lines of what I see in a completely dark room on a black background or when the Sleep app is on a dimmed screen. The black lines are black whereas the background, the rest of the area that looks clean, looks sort of greyish and on the sleep app with a dimmed screen it looks like the grey area is glowing like one of them glow sticks.

Any ideas? Is this normal? So far this hasn't affected me in any way apart from the fact that I've noticed it, but then again I notice all sorts of imperfections in everything. Should I be worried? Could this affect the screen in the future? I've heard some people exchanged their SGS2's for new ones and still had the same problem? If this is normal, I guess I can live with it?

Thanks for your time.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdadJeroen:
Hey Guys,

Android multitasks like a boss, unlike iOS it doesn't pause it's apps on pressing the home key, while completely letting it stop running code, but i'm still missing something in android:

For example, when i'm at home and i connect my phone to my speakers in the living room, i sometimes use youtube to play tracks that i don't have on my storage. This works fine but when the track is nearly finished and i switch tabs in the dolphin browser to open another song before the track is over, the playback immediately stops because i changed tabs.

Or when i'm listening to a song on youtube through and i want to go back to the homescreen to open another app, the playback also stops.

I know it drains the battery like crazy if the browser would continue, but i wonder if there isn't an app or something that would let android run a couple of non-system apps at a time once in a while.

I hope you guys know something

Thanks

I have the same issue, and I use the YouTube App. I think it's because Google assume's you're watching the video, not just listening to it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangal:
You can't be serious, Android doesn't have "real multitasking". Not even ICS.

You can separate "Multitasking" into 6 categories.

1) True Multitasking - you can see AND interact with two (or more) RUNNING applications.

2) True Multitasking - you can see two (or more) RUNNING applications, only interact with them one at a time.

3) Multitasking - you can only see and interact with one application but all other applications RUN in the background.

4) Pseudo-Multitasking - you can see and interact with one application but only RUN several applications in the background.

5) Pseudo-Multitasking - you can see and interact with one application and can SAVE STATE (to ram) other applications.

6) No Multitasking - you can see and interact with one application and can see a list of other applications which can be called upon.

The only mobiles that can multitask (that I know of) is the N900/N9/N950, the Blackberry Playbook, Palm Touchpad/Pre/Pixi/etc.

Android can technically do True Multitasking (or even True Multitasking2) but it needs to be hacked and made to do so in a very different way, as Inoxos shows:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7E1ckOoeRJg&feature=player_embedded

Right now, the best you can get is ICS Pseudo-Multitasking were the core services RUN in the background, you can run a few (6 iirc) applications in the background, and have unlimited* applications SAVE STATE.... and put them into a *Multitasking List* The reason for this move by Google is simple: Battery life. However, for smart users aka power users this is quite intrusive and we rather have True Multitasking because we know what we are doing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
I understand your point, but isn't this why Android is open source? ;)

When you buy a device, you are getting a "consumer level" OS, which isn't really configured for power user - this is why the manufacturers go to such lengths to lock down the device.

What I would like to see in Android is the ability to designate a process/application as unkillable by Android task management, so that I can ensure that when I switch task, that process isn't killed. I could achieve this via a custom AOSP build, but I don't want it enough to actually bother doing it myself!

Regards,

Dave

Real multitasking is possible but it must be enabled in the app. I use Igo navigation which can be forced to run in the background, and just today i had navigation running and giving verbal instructions whilst listening to a podcast all while browsing the web. If thats not multitasking i dont know what is.

Saying android cant do real multitasking is rubbish im sorry but thats the nicest way i could have put it. Go back to your iphone lol or learn how to use android properly before making such comments.

Using your definitions there If i can run navigation in the background while using the headset to control the music app and at the same time use the browser normaly what type of multitasking is that? All 3 apps are running simultaniously and I can control 2 apps at once. Whilst this is happening I can be downloading something from the market and answer a phone call.

Nice long post full of crap info you have there.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdadJeroen:
@martcerv i know android can multitask like that, on an iphone you can let the music play in the background too.. but igo navigation and music are ment to work in the background.. i was wondering if there's a way you can choose yourself what apps you want to run in the background. Because you can't let the browser run in the background

@ekin, will ICS let me to select the browser to be one of the 6 apps that run in the background?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martcerv:
I think its down to each app, by default most aren't enabled to run in the background but the os is capable of it. Even igo will only work in background if you change the advanced settings to work that way.

As mobiles are limited in ram and battery, most app developers trend to disable this feature otherwise lots of people would complain that there system its lagging and battery life is being killed by the app. I'd like to see an option in most aps so people that want it can use it but they will be aware of the possible performance and battery issues.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangal:
The solution for that is for android's multitasking capabilities to advance further to the decree of Maemo/WebOS/etc and a smart ux overhaul that makes such process easy.

For instance, look at Win7's Superbar. Many years were spent getting it to its current state, and it handles this problem in a cinch!

@martcev

What you described is Pseudo-Multitasking as I have defined. As stated by another, even iOS does this (but less advanced). If you use a device from a different (multitasking) mobileOS you might actually grasp my comment.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokix:
Kangal, I get you totally.

I recently dropped my N900 on the floor and finally killed it. I chose to get a SGS3 as a replacement because I already got my wife a N9 a while ago so I don't see the point of getting another one. Anyway, I've been trying to find a way to true multitask on my SGS3 like Maemo does but it seems that it's not possible (maybe at least not on stock). I like the SGS3 for its screen and the fact that it can handle videos in pretty much any resolution but I can't help to think that I actually own a "dumbphone" for the fact that it can't true multitask.

I mean, if it can't multitask properly, what's the point of having 4 cores?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miskol:
the only problem with Android's multitasking is that it drains battery. there's so much applications running in background, and i have to manually kill them. to minimize my manually killing these applications, i have to check their settings and for those applications that have sync, i have to increase the sync timing for example from every 5 mins to 24 hours. its a nightmare to go through all my applications (i figured it out late), and it gives me headache when some applications there's no such option!

i know for some applications it is useful for example if u want to download something in a different application while doing something else with another application. but i dont download much(well... its a phone, not a computer). so because of that, i really hate Android's multitask approach. i hope at some point, there's an option where Android can switch multitask configuration, where i would love to use iOS's solution, where they pauses background apps... it would certainly solve S2's battery problem.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaily:
Actually android can does allow true multitasking just like on your desktop. It not android that has the limitation, its some of the apps. My wife's SGS2 on gingerbread 2.3.6 can run Aircalc, floating browser & overskreen all on the screen at the exact same time running simultaneously & I can still cycle through my homescreen without minizing anything. This is straight stock right out of the box. Android has had the capability for years, there just hasn't been many apps that take advantage of it. Android is the most powerful, versatile OS out there because the possibilities are endless :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
lol, just cause an app has a workaround doesnt mean that the OS shouldnt have it natively... thats the issue, it should be natively supported, not random by some genious developers...

If that were true than you can program any app on any os and call the os genious... because a programmer invents something... I remember people building awesome stuff in dos, that didnt make dos awesome lol.

Sounds quite promising. Is it possible to make an app that you can adjust the number of simultaneous tasks allowed. Simiar to, say setting, maximum cpu using gui? I'm sure many people that are not familar with all the inner workings of android would appreciate having this capability.

Thanks for your efforts!

It requires the patching of services.jar.

When it's an app, it would facilitate the patching, whether it be seemlessly online (upload your jar file, patch it, download and install it)

The bigger the number of apps, the better.

No limit is best.

This way, the lowmemorykiller will take care of managing ram and killing apps - the way it's supposed to work.

Not with some artificial app limit.

So if you want more free ram, set aggressive LMK values.

That's what SuperCharger is for.

On my Galaxy Note I get better multitasking with the following app (paid version, because free one lacks the multitasking profiles):

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.smartprojects.RAMOptimization

I can witness that when the multitasking profiles are on, less applications get closed for low ram reasons. I imagine the app plays with several parameters like low memory limits and caches... It would be interesting to take some time examining what it really does. Not to save some coins to give to the developer, but to learn something!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
Read the first page of the SuperCharger thread.

It does a small part of what supercharger does - it copied a small part of my work.

The "Lock Home in Memory" feature is placebo... it only changes the OOM grouping limits (the adj file).

You would get the same effect by merely lowering your minfrees.

Absolutely. Better to look before you leap! Also Jelly Bean is coming out soon for the GN1 which apparently better integrates the CPU and GPU and can use triple buffering so it runs faster and smoother. See link

Anyways, I generally use "hard multitasking" as well. But it seems like if I use "hard gaming" for linux on android there is some performance improvement but I'm not sure if that is placebo effect. BTW I think you have full multitasking when using linux on android. I opened browser, open office writer and wxmaxima and could easily switch between them with all windows visible on the screen. There is some, generally tolerable, lag. Also if you try to play music, say on you tube there is a problem, besides bad lag here, as audio is not sent via VNC! Wish that could be fixed!
