Sounds like a loose connection on the cable for the screen. I had the same problem with mine. I'm still using this phone now. Free fix if you can figure out how to take the phone apart & basically unplug & re-plug. Be super careful though! And of course it could be a different problem.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] shahabk818:
You can buy a new one very cheap in amazon or ebay i dont think it worth to repair
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Lookin4Trouble:
Not sure it's the right place to post this, I replaced the digitizer in my old MT3GS (cracked in my pocket), and ever since, Ive have the screen-spazzing issue as well - wasn't my first time replacing a screen, either. For me, the solution _every time_ has been hit the power button to lock the screen, hit it again to get back to what I was doing... Never had to totally power down to fix the spaz :\

If it'd interest you at all, I'd be willing to send you the phone, charger brick, (and the metal case if I can find the damn thing) for $50+ship - thats what I paid for the new digitizer... If you have better troubleshooting skills than I do, good on you, because I've torn this one down and put back together again at least 2 or 3 times since replacing the digitizer, and can't find a single loose connection - maybe you'll have better luck than me?

Thanks

[myTouch 3G Slide General] mojoffdawal:
I called a repair shop I found on craigslist and they mentioned it's more than likely the flex cable, not the lcd screen or glass digitizer. These phones' cables go through lots of wear due to the sliding mechanism. They gave me a 70 dollar estimate, so I just don't slide my phone out anymore to prevent the screen from spazzing out or blacking out for good (it happened to a friend of mine's MTS3g). I've also seen the cable for sale online on ebay or repairsuniverse but I'd rather wait for my full upgrade than invest in it AND risk not fixing it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] AJTeamkiller:
I really wanna use this phone again, the slide mechanism is so worn on it you can feel it its kinda tough to do its not springy like it was outta the box, also on ebay these phones still run close to 200 dollars, I would take it apart, as its out of warranty anyways, but I don't have the proper tools to do so, like the mini philips head and the tiny socket wrench. And I hear it is most likely the flex cable but as I said I can't access it.

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a bluetooth keyboard for my Xoom. I was looking at the Logitech MK320 mouse/keyboard combination, but I wasn't sure if I'd have to use the supplied dongle. (Since the Xoom doesn't have a regular USB port...)

Would this work? If not, does anyone have a keyboard that they'd recommend?

Thanks for the advice in advance...
[Xoom General] eirrann:
I personally use the apple Bluetooth keyboard and trackpad, connected using twelvesouth's magic wand (twelvesouth.com/products/magicwand/).

It's remarkable how well the trackpad works with the tablet, as well as the keyboard (the keys for volume, music control, etc, work).

Perhaps a bit pricey, but I'm actually really glad I went this route. Makes a great little setup together with the Motorola Xoom dock, too :-)

[Xoom General] okantomi:
I really like the Motorola Bluetooth keyboard. I also just bought the Xoom keyboard folio case. Works great with the Moto BT mouse. Never liked a trackpad, myself.
[Xoom General] brianmoriarty:
The motorola keyboard was on sale with a mouse at forty bucks, it still might be. Thats what I use. The mouse is annoying to repair every time, but the keyboard works great and the android buttons are really useful. It wakes right up and works immediately, and its small and light and exceedingly portable.
[Xoom General] mike_art03a:
Howdy,

Believe it or not, I use a Microsoft bluetooth keyboard with my Xoom and it works pretty good. I got it at a good price online, but here's the link if you're curious:

[Xoom General] 3devious:
I have to agree w/ @brianmortiarty. The keyboard is great. The mouse came free with mine and works perfectly. In total it was $40 shipped.
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
It still is.

$100 value for $40. Pretty sweet.
[Xoom General] spidy30:
guys i have Microsoft bluetooth keyboard and it works fine no such problems i believe its best buy :cool:
[Xoom General] eirrann:
That is great value for money, despite my personal preference for trackpads.

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone has (*yet) been charged for exceeding Sprints 5 GB Tethering Limit (yes I actually pay for tethering). I am wondering if this overage is detected on unlocked tethering. I cant stand sense and use CyanogenMod 7
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
Never heard of a tether limit. I pay for mine too.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
There is no limit on tethering plans, only on sprint data cards from what I remember and I think that is just a soft limit. Correct me if I am wrong.
[HTC EVO 3D] kpsingh:
That's correct phones are fully unlimited. Other devices have caps.
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:

[HTC EVO 3D] keejung:
Just a heads up, sprint now charges 30 for 5 gig of tether from phone... No unlimited tether anymore and no one is grandfathered in the policy was changed a few months ago, and you were warned in your paper bills about the change. Data on phone is unlimited, but tether from phone us not
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Only if you are not rooted and are paying sprint for the ability to tether.

If you're tethering with wifi tether for root users, it all looks like phone data to sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] jz1983:
what sucks is that you can't even check how much tethering data you've used, I called to ask, I was told that if I ever got close to the 5GB, sprint would send me a letter letting me know, that way I could avoid being charged for anything beyond the 5GB, she also said she had no way of checking, the letter was the only way, that doesn't make any sense to me.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaosdefinesorder:
is this just in Dolphin HD or the standard Android browser as well?

I seem to remember that the most recent update to Flash mentioned something about green videos so there's a possibility you may either need to update Flash or wait for the next update...

ETA: the release notes for the update http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/923/cpsid_92359.html mentions that green screens in videos were fixed, but it mentions ICS specifically which doesn't apply to you on GT13...

Configuration user feedback.

Just some feedback received from users of MagicConfig:​

From boromxed

"Hi,

This is to inform you that your settings are excellent.

Have tested them on Siyah 2.6.7 /2.6.8 and 2.6.9 with Omega B&B 10.2 rom and, it works wonderfull on all.

Very smooth and very little battery drain.

For information battery drain during night time over an 8 hours period (Wifi/Data/Background Data on off) is less than 2%.

I even got 0% during one night (battery level at 35% at 12 pm and still at 35% at 08:00 am);

Congratulations, mate"

From itsedstech

"So i tested out your config, and oh my do i get amazing battery life! whenever i go to school id have it drain down to about 92% after my first class which was roughly 1 hour and 35 minutes, and thats without touching it, this time it only went down to 98% and that was with music playing too some of the time! Thanks man! i read about your 0.3.1 config, whens that coming out? lol"

From blk15

"Hey Geko,

Used your settings back in 2.5.2 and battery life was AMAZING.

Thanks Geko! Totally appreciate this thread.
[Galaxy S II General] s2dh:
Any chance you could post screenshots of your settings, I am a noob to this app and this kind of tweaking..
[Galaxy S II General] ekjl:
Question:

After applying your settings, do I have to "Save as boot settings"?
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
I will post screenshots tomorrow. Really all you need to do is download the Voltage Control app from the market and input the numbers into it going from screen to screen. It couldn't be simpler. ;)

Yes, save as boot. Then settings will be reapplied after rebooting. :)

Communicated using an SGS2 droid with XDA premium neurotransmitter while DJ'ing on the Enterprise.
[Galaxy S II General] ekjl:
Thanks, which do you recommend? Save as startup service or init.d?

The app recommends startup service.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of either choices?
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Eh? Are you sure that you are using Voltage Control by Xan?

Communicated using an SGS2 droid with XDA premium neurotransmitter while DJ'ing on the Enterprise.
[Galaxy S II General] jermitano:
stable...universal...used by a lot...evidenced...launch pad to a more personal tweaking (all GS2 units are not created equal)...
[Galaxy S II General] ekjl:
I hope so. I double checked the market and I have Voltage Control by DAREK.XAN. Last updated January 17, 2012. 976 Reviews with 100,000+ downloads. Size of the app is 685KB.

So whenever I click "Save as boot settings", it comes up with a dialog box asking "Pick a method" and gives me two choices: init.d script or (Recommended) startup service.
[Galaxy S II General] Simba501:
Whichever most reliably sets the values at boot. I've had issues with service boot options in other apps, so I opt for scripts. Scripts are applied faster. Either one will be applied in ample time. The only major advantage is providing an option for those that have issues with one or the other.

It was recently updated to give users an option.

[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Ah yes that must be correct, I haven't updated up to the latest version. Doing that now.

I'd say startup service, since thats what I always do and never had issues with my settings sticking.

First off..thanks to geko for this settings..This setting was my stepping stone to learn anything from UV'ing and look for the proper combo for governor and scheduler..his setting is very stable..and the user can still tweak this settings as long as their phone can handle the UV and all the tweaks a user can do..

For a stater in UV-ing, i suggest to use this settings by geko..this is superb.

Thanks again mate..
[Galaxy S II General] sid9922:
From geko's setting ans from the suggestion of Suarez7, im able to tweak my setting and my phone seems to be happy with it..its freaking flying now..

Im really happy with it..even got 5400 in Antutu..

Thanks again mates..
[Galaxy S II General] AtlanM87:
Geko - Thank you! Your post is helpful, no question. I have no problem if people are giving additional input and are trying to be helpful - lets all work together. However, to those that feel like smart assing you - why do you even bother if you don't see the point of this thread? Why can't Geko try to be helpful to others and be appreciate for this? Maybe you should do something useful for a change.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Thanks dudes, like said before the purpose of this thread is to help jump start the UV modifications.

It's an "easily achievable improvement" basically, since these settings can be punched in straight away after flashing the kernel. I mean not everyone wants to sit there and scratch their head for 3 hours after flashing a kernel trying to figure out how he must reduce the voltages to get better battery life. That benefit should be accessible to them straight away, not after 3 days of trial and error...and freezes.....and reboots lol

It's much better to flash, select the numbers given and go! :D

Especially now since gokhan is on a proper roll and comes out with updated/improved kernel every day lol (not complaining) :p

Communicated using an SGS2 droid with XDA premium neurotransmitter while DJ'ing on the Enterprise.
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Most of my testing so far has indicated that enabling 100 MHz could actually reduce your battery life a bit, because the CPU spends more time active and less time in deeper idle states like AFTR or LPA.

Because there is little to no voltage difference between 100 and 200, and leakage current dominates at this frequency, it's better to hit AFTR or LPA idle than to clock down.

In short - disable 100 MHz and you get free "Wheatley".
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Correct mate, try those. I'm on noop / conservative / 200 - 1200 at the moment and all is well. Probably the best combo on current release. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Mabili:
Is your problem solved?

I think i have the same issue like you.

Yesterday i installed Foxhound 3 with Siyah 2.6.11 and afther a couple of hours the screen wont be up. Install the kernel again and adjust the Magic Config

And the problem stays. The phone was full charged and this morning the phone wont be up and the battery was empty :(
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Sounds like you're phone is not sleeping properly. Wipe cache and dalvik (or use a kernel cleaning script) then reflash kernel.

If the problem persists, raise all steps by +25mV. Still problems? Raise voltages by another +25mV.
[Galaxy S II General] mxn-:
The Voltage app changed today in the market, u cant choose these settings with free version anymore u need extreme
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Not a problem for anybody I think, everyone can just use the previous version. Thanks for the heads-up though. :)

Voltage Control v4.9.11 working perfectly fine here.
[Galaxy S II General] Mabili:
Thanks for your help and sharing your Magic Config. :)

I'm Wipe and clear the dalvik now and reflash the kernel.

I post the result later.

Edit:

After follow your tip i think the problem is solved.

The phone going in sleep and till now no problems.

I follow your Magic Config but i have a stock battery is the Charging tweak at 700mA and usb 500mA no problem for the phone?
[Galaxy S II General] beston94:
Hello, I was wondering whether the charging which is on 700 is maybe too much? I mean I love how fast its charging but is there any negative effect on the phone or the battery?
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
It's actually OT but I wonder if changing/increasing the USB Charging Current in Voltage Control app to 650 mA (same as AC charger) from 450 mA will decrease the charging duration and make it same as AC chager or not?

If anybody had already tried please post feedback. I would have done that unless my device just came back from servicing.

TIA.
[Galaxy S II General] lolcoelho:
geko95gek can help me?

I have the full version and when I save the processor to be between 100 and 800 mhz I lose the settings when I restart my phone, I tried to uninstall and use the free version but every time I lose the settings of the processor already saved the boot (the 2 options) and still not saved.

you have a suggestion?
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Perfect. :)

No, it shouldn't cause any issues at all. Plus, batteries only cost a few pennies these days. I'm on stock too btw. ;)

Hmm ... that's strange.

Are you applying these settings correctly? First press Apply Changes then set as boot (startup service)

Also, bear in mind that it takes a bit of time to apply your chosen VC profile on boot so try it again. This time wait a few minutes before opening VC and checking.

What version of kernel are you using?

If you use "battery monitor widget" or "current widget" app show CHARGING current, you will not be able to charge any more than 650. I have tried it, maybe see for yourself? So placebo?

From changelog v2.6.9

Have been testing Siyah 2.6.9 and I can indeed confirm that it's better battery wise. At least for me, 2.6.9 has been better then 2.6.11. Not that the difference is huge, but noticable.

Now on 8 hours and 20 min standby, 3 hours screen time, still 63% left. Connected to wifi all the time at home. Really great!

Edit: 9 hours 20 min, 3 hours and 30 min screen, 56%.
