[HTC Jetstream] kmanuel74:
I'm in the market for a 10 inch tablet. I've owned/used a HTC phone since the Apache days, currently with the Incredible 2. I love Sense and I am very familiar with HTCs and wouldn't think of getting anything else......except the only 10 inch HTC tablet is $800. I've searched online and found a company in UK selling them for $390. Too good to be true? The store is hosted on Vendio.com, which looks like a hosting service.

Here is the link to it:

http://www.vendio.com/stores/laramall/item/gsm-unlocked-phones/htc-jetstream/lid=24698322

Any thoughts? If it is a scam,what is the worst, I cancel my payment and get a new credit card? Any chance its a counterfeit and I'd get stuck with a fake HTC?

Any thoughts? If not there anyone know of a place to get one reasonably?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Jetstream] typhoonikan:
Call or email the company. Ask them why the price is 390.00. Perhaps they are refurbished. I would be very cautious though.

But, though I love my Jetstream, if you're in the market for a 10 inch tablet, I would wait until the end of February to see if HTC announces any Sense 4.0 (the next version of the Sense UI you like) tablets for this year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tibere86:
Will the Verizon Galaxy Nexus be compatible with VoLTE like the HTC Thunderbolt once Verizon throws the switch?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
What makes you think the Thunderbolt will be VoLTE compatible? Is there a statement regarding this somewhere?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ATnTdude:
Nexus is a 3GPP Release 8 LTE UE Category 3 device. Rel. 8. supports IMS, which is a generic platform for media applications including (but not limited to) SMS,MMS, VOIP (which is all VoLTE is) and video calling/conferencing.

HTC Thunderbolt is also a Rel. 8 device. It also supports VoLTE. Nice thing about IP-based networks is that it doesn't really care what you're trying to do. It's all just data.

[HTC Sensation XL] wissamidrissi:
THANKS! works like charm at least now it bypass the white HTC and shows the quietly brilliant, now I know that it's not bricked and have a kernel, now gotta find a good rom for him, no ICS for now he should live with it, and the normal sensation ICS didn't work on the XL maybe because of the SDcard being a chip? it says system already unmounted error status 1 aborted.

anyway I will flash andtopix, thanks a bunch again I love you :P
[HTC Sensation XL] rdewa:
thats good i helped you :) , my favorite ROM is ANDtopix and i really advice you to try it because its almost stuck ROM so you can modify it the way you want .

[Motorola Droid RAZR] matticala:
http://www.visitm.de/en/razr-dev

Motorola started selling RAZR (GSM, not yet in US) with unlocked bootloader at 499€.

Getting a flashable ROM from this device will solve all out troubles.

EDIT: There is another post opened 2 mins earlier than mine... just use that one :)
[Motorola Droid X2] tjryanesq:
I would post this in the Eclipse thread, but being new, I cannot. My issue is simple: If I send a text to someone, then lock the phone without exiting the Messaging app, and I get a response. When I unlock the phone, I can see the window, with the name of the person I'm texting with, but there are no messages. I have to back out to the MMS app main page, then go back into the text thread.

Is it a small problem? Indeed. But with how refined this ROM is already, and with how responsive the developer is, I though it something to look into.

Yes, I know I can install GoSMS, Handcent SMS, etc. and I will try that first. It still remains a bug in the Eclipse Messaging app.

Thanks -

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Frank2:
I have my Galaxy Note for 10 weeks and after using it always with 100% brightness there are aging effects.

Specially at blue backgrounds, but also at white and gray I can see the home screen icons, the clock and some buttons from jelly defense (I played jelly defense 3 weeks daily 2 hours) shining darker. (you can see it on the photo)

Now my Galaxy Note is in service for screen changing.

But what can I do in the future to avoid this aging effects? 80% brightness, 90% brightness?

Samsung didn't know this problems (I'll not believe it).

Has anyone practical experience with this problem?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxbat121:
Typically Blue pixels age the fastest. So pick a warm/red background. Avoid 100% brightness. Use auto if possible. Avoid leave screen on for prolonged period. Avoid static text or icon on the screen for too long. Basically the same care you would do to a Plasma TV except even the plasma TV screen(around 80,000 to 100,000 hrs) lasts 10 times longer than the AMOLED screen (estimated around 10,000 to 20,000 hrs).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] inurb:
Looks like you've discovered amoleds dirty little secret. I avoid pixel burnout by using launchers that auto hide the notification bar as well as browsers that allow you to hide the navigation bar such as opera. Opera let's you browse in fill screen mode.

I often refrain from using apps that show static images for long periods of time. I try to use the browser for everything that can be done through the regular Web portal of a site.

There is no way of getting around static images in apps unless the Dev accounts for it. Some devs are aware of amoled burn out and have options to hide navigation bars.

Ultimately you have to be mindful of static images and make sure to either avoid them on your screen for prolonged periods of time or remember to rotate your screen.

This is why I'm not looking forward to virtual buttons on ICS. It will destroy amoled screens for sure. Hopefully Samsung will retain physical button(s)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
10 weeks is a pretty short life time, My friend's Nexus One (1yr++) does not have the very slightest hint of screen aging why my the galaxy S2 that I used for just 2 months already had the AM/PM burned in.

Its normal for OLED screens to age but it should not be this fast, this is probably why apple is not looking into OLED screens as the quality and or lifespan could be problematic.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxbat121:
There are some manufacturing defects. Some screens are just fade faster than others. But in general, if you know how to take good care of your screen, it will last a long time. My old Galaxy S lasted over a year without any noticeable burn-in. My new Galaxy S2 has been 4 months w/o any problem.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PAGOT:
like the part where you say "noticeable" :)

no matter how much you try to take care of it. It will happen. Its already there. (Depends to which degree)

My advice apart those ones about hiding the element that are always present.

Do not look for a screen burn in. Or do not look at the ****ty quality of the AMOLED. When you would look on for example on grey/ brown background easiest to spot when going to the marker you would notice the differences between the different parts of the screen. Its not perfectly even from the time its build. The color is displayed in different shades usually presenting itself in "lines".

Had my Note for 1 hour and I noticed it. Brand new.

But then again I know what to look for (proud owner of Galaxy S) and where to look for it.

I bought this device for the resolution and power. Not for the screen build quality :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxbat121:
When I say 'noticeable', I meant to use screen test patterns. Last time I did that with my Galaxy S, I don't see any burn in with the test patterns at all. But I agree one should not purposfully sort after the burn in. It will always be there. But I also don't need live in panic. The great contrast of the screen (or infinite black) outweights any shortcomings it has. Side by side with an iPhone 4/4s, I simply can't stand the foggy looking screen of the LCD on iPhones. Every iPhone owners I encounter liked my SAMOLE screen better.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Hello fellow Galaxy S owner, This is the phone that brought up my standards and expectation for a SAMOLED device. I never saw any lines/uneven screen brightness and other garbage on my Galaxy S, even on greys. So this has brought up my expectation for a very high level which was crushed by the Galaxy Note's screen.

Good for you, I bought the device as a while package with the top concern about screen build quality and as an HD playback device which it does not meet the purpose :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dancairo:
Just a quick tip I picked up from someone else on this site (I forget now who it was, sorry). Change your clock from 12 to 24 hour every now and then (and visa versa), it shifts all the icons along a little :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Featherbeard:
This is both an interesting and depressing post to find. I was so excited to order my International Note soon, but now I'm super paranoid about screen aging. I've read so much conflicting information about it online, I don't even know what to believe anymore. :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PoisonWolf:
In terms of lifespan, LCDs still trump amoleds. That's a fact you'll have to live with.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] vcespon:
No screen technology is perfect. SAMOLED for the moment has the problem that pixels decrease in brightness with ussage. So try to minimize the amount of light you get off the screen. That will also give you more battery life.

Try to use black backgrounds, and white text on black background if the application allows it. Of course if you spend 3 hours a day on a game with static icons and menus, that will wear some pixels more than others and you'll end up with something like the OP.

If you go looking for small variations of color, you're going to find them. But the superior brightness and contrast of a SAMOLED screen wins me over. Even when I know its effemeral and will degrade with time. But anyway, who keeps a phone more than 2 years? :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Featherbeard:
Yeah, but I just found this information for the first time today, which is why I'm so depressed. ;) I'm a digital artist so having a nice little on-the-go sketchpad has me super excited, but also worried because of the screen. Expansys tells me there's a 2 year warranty, but I don't know how that would work on an international phone if the screen goes bad...

---------- Post added at 02:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 PM ----------

vcespon : Yeah, I normally keep the brightness on my Atrix down quite low anyways. The max brightness setting is *blindingly* bright. As for the 'who keeps a phone more then 2 years", I had my iphone 3gs for quite awhile thank you very much. ;) That and if I spend 600-700 bucks on this baby I want it to last! :) If I get at the very least a year to a year and a half out of the screen I'll be somewhat happy, though closer to 2 would be better obviously. I wonder what the long-term outlook is for the life of these screens anyways. Does anyone know the mean-time-before-failure for them?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] HarmonyFlame:
I would also try using black backgrounds or dark themes on as many apps as possible also. Like tapatalk or k9 for instance.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PAGOT:
I think there are some references how long the pixels "live". You should google. Even though Samsung said that they used new materials to build the displays.

I can tell you one thing :) you get used to the inferior screen in time.(Few rants not and then) So I wouldn't worry about that. If it really fails you. Meaning someone else will notice something wrong on the screen no just you. Claim warranty :)

Also to pointing out. There is shor-term memory effect as well. I think I already posted some bad quality pics here about that from my SGS. > http://goo.gl/URYzm I do not remember if this is a burn it or just the memory effect. I think its the memory bla bla. Second pic is best.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Featherbeard:
Thanks for the information! I think I remembered someone saying that the short-term memory effect gets better over time as well. I'm mostly worried about the screen quality as I plan on doing a lot of sketching on it, which kind of sucks because it'll most likely be using a light-colored background then. :\ I wonder if the AT&T version will have the exact same screens or if they'll be a slightly updated version. I guess not considering AMOLED is still AMOLED. :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PAGOT:
You worry too much. And you do not even have that phone yet.

First of all not sure how its in your country, but here you can return in if you dont like it in a week I think.

Also if it becomes really apparent you really can go to a service center. I do not remember someone saying that samsung refused to change the screen.

Also I was ranting here already a year ago about the Galaxy S. I hate SAMOLED soo much since I got the SGS (18 months ago). I own an iPhone 4 and love retina and SLCD. And yet bought the Galaxy Note as well :) (despite the fact I knew how faulty it will be and how I will hate it :D )
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Featherbeard:
Hey, I'm paranoid! I *really* get upset when I get a device that either isn't stable or has something wrong or defective about it. :( (Especially something that costs this much!) I'm in the US and am debating ordering through Expansys (USA), and I've heard they have I believe it was a 2 year warranty, but I have a feeling I'd have to send it to Expansys and have them take care of it if something went wrong. I can't see Samsung handling an international phone's repair in the US?

Aren't we strange with how we buy our gadgets? We know we will hate something and yet still buy it. ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] inurb:
All oled displays suffer from amoled burn out. Not much you can do.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Frank2:
Here you can see my homescreen. There is already white text on black background.

But I can see the shadows of the big clock and all icons. The shadows are the white parts of the homescreen; for example the "S" of my S-Banking-App is very visible as a black shadow in all other apps with lighter background (Internet-Browser, ebook-Reader etc..).

And the homescreen is visible only for a few minutes, because when I want to use an app I directly start the app. I don't look so much time to the homescreen and my Galaxy Note goes after one minute in standby mode.

That means only 10 minutes/day homescreen with 100% brightness is enough to damage the screen visible after 10 weeks?

Okay, playing Jelly Defense 2 hours a day at 100% brightness is not so good, but the problem is not the time, because a few minutes looking to the homescreen has nearly the same aging effect.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Featherbeard:
I'm having a very difficult time seeing what you're pointing out on my work computer. :( I'll have to look when I get home. :\
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxbat121:
That's one of the major reason why we don't see (and why you don't want to rush out to buy a new OLED TVs this fall) any consumer OLED TVs (other than the $2000 14" Sony released a few years ago). No OLED panels can last 5 to 10 years. Samsung doesn't publish its AMOLED life span but from what I can gather, the blue channel lasts about 14,000 hours.

Worst yet, when pixels wore out, the blue pixels wore out faster than other two. So you will see screen color temp graduately change as well.

However, as a phone, I'm sure the screen will last more than two years without noticeable effects if you take some precausions.

There is no need to panic but also don't be ignorant and abuse your screen. For what it worth, the back light on any LCD screen can go out as well although they last much longer than OLED on average.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Oneiricl:
I don't understand the problem...

If blue fades the fastest and it has a lifespan of 14000 hours, even using the phone with screen on for 10 hours a day, you get 1400 days out of the blue pixels without failure. Even if we consider that there'll be a gradual fading over time, you should easily get through 3 years without issue.

Edit: Was just doing some reading up: Even that figure of 14000 was actually for a typical OLED. The AMOLEDs are even more refined so should give you a better lifespan.

Editx2: Dug this up:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Smartphone-Displays---AMOLED-vs-LCD_id13824/page/2

I really think your screen was defective. Makes no sense that it should fade so quickly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Featherbeard:
Thanks Oneiricl. This was exactly the sort of logic I was hoping to hear from someone. It's really easy to get panicky reading forum posts and whatnot about issues with devices. Everyone seems to go mental over everything you can't really tell if it's something you truly should be wary about or if it's more of a 'something that can be dealt with'. Now the only question is do I wait or go International. (Leaning towards international, but only if I can be assured of a warranty!)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] honf:
The burn out stops after a while people. Stop fussing about it :) Had an AMOLED for 2.5 years already and I barely saw these symptoms toward the end, unless Samsung has started making worse quality panels.

Edit:

If you guys want, give me a few test images and I'll take photos of them on the old phone on the weekend ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PAGOT:
So go to your local Samsung service and ask them. Or write them a letter. Don't understand why you worry for few days instead of asking them and getting answers.

Also mental? No posts here gone mental. We are just aware group of ppl with good eyesight :).

I would kinda put into the cathegory ppl. That don't use that phone, but let the phone use them... Such as putting 200 screenprotectors and cases and bumpers.

The ones that rather make the phone harder to operate. Or the ones that change AM/PM to 24 hour as well :) Sorry there.

But I didn't buy the phone so I can't use it properly for 90 percent of time.

I bought it to serve me. Not to spend days to figure out how to keep it. And while it finaly have it down, buy a new one, or just dont care. And even though the screen sucks. Still works me as I expected :).

As I did go through with this already with the SGS. (Every bit of it) . I dont wanna spend any minute on this useless thing.

As I said 20 times. If someone else notice it, warranty repair. If its only you sometimes, either warranty or get used to it. Its simple as that ...

---------- Post added at 08:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 AM ----------

The burn in. Is just a part of it. The screen ages. Color and brightness fade. Memory effects. And uneven stuff bla bla... You can ask someone with the thingy that Supercurio uses to measure it for you. The differences will be huge :) (If you had measurements taken as you got it ofc :D)

You just stopped looking and caring :D

I think that some ppl here. Have the russian Galaxy S (something) with the SLCD instead of Amoled :D < joke on the side.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dancairo:
No worrries, It only takes a second to change and as I'm a new comer to Android and capacitive screens I will do as I'm told..now, I'm just off to stick my head in an oven (I heard somewhere on the net it stops your hair falling out).

One more thing...I had the superb N900 for 2 years, when I first bought it there was a similar thread to this, I didn't notice any degradation on that phone at all.
