Mine has bleed, but the only time I ever notice is when it's booting. They all have some form. iPads have them also. Mine did.... it's the nature of IPS, apparently.

Enjoy your TF201, stop staring at a plain black screen. :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Mine has just a bit of bleed along the bottom, not really noticeable and nowhere as bad as our TV. The top-right corner however, on the bootup screen and any solid black (does not show up in any other color :() has pretty bad bleed. I'm pretty sure this is down to only having pressure in the four places this screen does.

If I push the panel's corner in toward the glass in that spot the bleed disappears, and no amount of tightening on the nearest screw will help.

I have not noticed mine get worse in the two weeks I've had it, but I reseated all the screws and made sure they were snug...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Flipnotic:
I don't know... I've had mine for a week and I don't have any light bleed. None that I can notice at least..

SN: C10
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordache16:
The backlight bleed 'issue' is either hit or miss. I had a B1 grey for a couple of weeks before my C1 Champagne pre-order finally came in and the B1 had no backlight bleeding what-so-ever. My C1 has a small amount light bleed along the right side, which from the sounds of it is fairly common on the C1s.

In my opinion the backlight 'issue' is not that big of a deal. In my normal daily use it is something I don't notice at all. As others have mentioned if you do get one with light bleeding the only time you really notice it is on the boot screen.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matrixzone5:
hey all so i know this is a bit of a noob question but i was just wondering why you cant flash a 2.2 rom over a 2.3 rom but you can flash a 2.4 rom over a 2.3 rom i mean i just understand why you cant does it have something to do with the recoveries?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Why can't I....complete the question in the subject....LOL

We don't have 2.4 so I guess you mean 4.0 meaning CM9, and that requires full wipes. What 2.2 ROM are you trying to flash? You should be able to flash a Froyo ROM over a Gingerbread ROM BUT data is not compatible so you need to do a Factory Data reset to clear all data first. Also wipe dalvik cache.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afrosamurai123:
Hi,

i have rooted my note since day 1, and at the time a flashed rocket rom v17.

now i would like to flash the new v21.

as per reading to much on the rocket rom thread... i got confused...

so i would like a help from the senior members (i mean, more experienced users) on a simple step by step...

something like:

1- charge 100% the phone

2- boot CWM

3- fullwipe or no fullwipe?

4- reboot in to v17

5- wait 5 minutes

6- reboot again in to CWM

7- flash v21

8- fullwipe

9- reboot in to v21

10- wait 5 minutes

11- reboot again in to v21

12- full wipe again (just to make sure)

13 - final reboot

14 - install apps.

did i miss something? Any aditional steps should be done?

Apreciated!!!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeremy.chan:
you can do this, it's pretty failsafe

0. Download v20 & v21

1. Titanium backup user apps + needed system apps (usually green)

2. CWM (nandroid) backup

3. Reboot to recovery

4. Clean wipe, dalvik, cache, batt stats, etc

5. Install v20

6. Reboot a couple of times (more if you want to, no harm there)

7. Reboot to recovery

8. Install v21 (do not wipe)

9. Reboot a couple times (more if you want to, no harm there...again)

10. Titanium restore everything

11. Reboot

12. Freeze Wifi sharing + any additional apps you want to freeze

13. Fix market (optional if you want 3.4.4)

14. Enjoy

p.s. you don't need to be at 100%, you can reset your battery stats later
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prudviraj:
well the best way i found out after 2 days is.. download criskello rom and install it.. after it boots.. install rocket rom V21 and mind you DONOT FACTORY RESET.. just let the rom wipe the dalvik by itself.. and you will be in V21 without any problems.. i have done it twice.. upgrade from V20 to V21 is a PITA...

If you prefer sense 3.0 then flash wild child's 3.0 rom...just as stable as 3.5

Hey Guys

I every time wipe my nexus when i update to a newer version of franco kernel

im getting tired of that is it really necessary to wipe your whole phone?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lobrau:
Edit: corrected by Josh.

Still can't hurt to do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Firstly your whole phone is never wiped through recovery, your media card isn't touched.

And no you don't have to wipe anything except maybe cache when you switch kernels.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Taijutzu:
Damn that's very tiring

I will wait then for a stable kernel from him cuz he's now updating every 2 days

Thanks man!

Edit: Realy can i just wipe cash...? not factory reset and reinstall roms radio and all that again?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
correct.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bowsersoulstar:
I don't know why (especially today) people keep thinking/reading somewhere that they need to wipe anything when updating/flashing kernel.

Franco himself said he doesn't wipe.

To reiterate, you do not need to wipe anything when flashing updates of the same kernel.

[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
I've made a simple script that activates swap on boot

What is swap?

Swap puts the 'less important RAM' on the sdcard, making the device faster. It is best when used with v6 Supercharger. (See my other thread)

Requirements:

An SD card to BE IN THE DEVICE AT BOOT, POSSIBLY EVERY BOOT, with at least 150mb of space free on it

A 8/16gb Archos G9 (NOT THE 250GB MODEL)

Root

Script Manager from the market

Busybox (See my other thread)

What to do:

1. Download this: (long press > save link)

http://db.tt/LP7tliLZ

2. Using Script Manager, locate the downloaded file and rename (long press > rename) to 90swapon.sh

3. Copy (long press > copy) it to /data and then tap it to bring up a pop up window

4. Tap the little "pirate flag" (superuser logo) and the "gear" (run on boot)

5. Tap run and wait for it to say swap is on

6. Reboot

7. Hit thanks, you are done

Note: to check if it works, type "free" into a terminal, and it will give you values for swap. It takes a bit to kick in, so it won't be on straight away on boot
[Gen9 Android Development] jipee296:
thank you for this and all the stuff you did/contribute for our G9
[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
I actually do most of this stuff for myself and then upload it for the community, but thanks :)
[Gen9 Android Development] jipee296:
Quinny,after using this script for two days, i always get a random reboot or the devices freezes... any help?
[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
Don't have that issue. It's not to do with swap
[Gen9 Android Development] Denkel:
gorymp mine

Hi, thanks for that job, I'm going to try it!

But I have one question:

Why, if the G9 recongnizes de main memory as SD, is not posible to do that with the main memory instead of an external card??

I prefer to lose even 1Gb on my memory for increasing my perfomance...
[Gen9 Android Development] iourine:
First of all, because the swap is continuously rewritten as the system tries to distribute itself between physical RAM and swap in the optimal way. Any type of flash memory allows only a limited number of read-write cycles - and not really big. So, if you put swap onto it, you will kill it in a relatively short time . If it is a card, you just replace it; if it is the main ROM, you ruin the entire device.

Аnd once the swap volume is corrupt, results are unpredictable - that is what might happen to jipee296. jipee296, did you use an old card that had been rewritten many times before? Try a brand new one just to see if the problem goes away.

HDDs do not have this limitation, so if it were the HDD model, there would be the perfect place for swap. But this is not the case.

Quinny899, will the system start at all if swap is activated but the card is missing or corrupt? Actually there are two more inctructions missing for a complete solution: how to replace the SD card (will the swap be re-built automatically on a new card?) and how to remove swap completely. Any new step should be repeatable and reversible.

BTW, does someone know the exact brand of SD card reader used in G9 (hopefully it is the same in all models), or at least its performance characteristics (class, read spped, write speed)? This would be helpful to choose the optimal SD - as fast as the controller can support, but not an even more fast and more expensive one.
[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
To remove just delete the file you pushed. And I ran swap on my old phone for 2 years and nothing happened to the sd
[Gen9 Android Development] DeeDroid:
I didn't try the script yet but used "swapper 2". I assume this does the same thing and I get random reboots and freezes too. I tried different values for swappiness, internal memory or sdcard, swap file and swap partition, the problem remains :(
[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
Swapper 2 has freezing issues, the script doesn't
[Gen9 Android Development] x3ss:
Hi,

I looked at your script and it seems to recreate the swap file at every boot. That might slow the boot process. You could add an "if file exists...don't rm and create" kind of instruction...
[Gen9 Android Development] iourine:
And what happens next? Does the system start at all? Does it re-create the swap, or operates without swap from that point on? (Sorry, I'm on the go now and cannot investogate your script.)

Well, to say not so categorically - this may depend upon many things: memory type, manufacturer, actual load, etc. E.g. if the amount of physical RAM is sufficient for everyday use, then swap is used very rarely, or not used at all - surely, the card will live much longer in this case. Yet finally any flash memory is mortal, sooner or later (like us, too). I personally had a few dead cards and sticks over the past few years (without swap, just due to intensive usage), and I won't risk the entire device for the price of a flash card.
[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
I'll look into it
[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
If you delete it it just doesn't use the swap file. End of.

And why, if swap was unsafe, do almost all Linux builds recommend it and HTC incorporate it on some phones?
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
I still use Kingston 8GB micro sd card- it had 128MB swap partition used from the very beginning I bought it (samsuck Spica had 256MB ram, it was quite hard to use it without swap)- card still works fine, no r/w problems on swap area.

On the other hand- if you don't like swap on flash memory you are free to make zram driver ;)
[Gen9 Android Development] iourine:
Ok, now it is more clear.

Because all end-user Linux distributions arу traditionally targeted at conventional PCs equipped with a HDD. Things are different, say, for embedded Linux projects - swap is a very rare thing there.

In fact, swap concept is a thing of the past. Physical ROM is rather cheap now, and there are very few reasons to have it less than needed for your everyday use. Provided that, you can eliminate swap at all, both for Windows, Linux, or whatever else. I did this a few years ago (with RAM ranging from 1,25GB at my very old travel notebook to 8GB at graphic station used to stitch multi-megapixel panoramas), and never was short of RAM.

Unfortunately, this is not the case for current G9 8-(( A few bucks saved on a RAM chip by Archos designers cause problems now and will definitely cause much more problems in the future. I would never buy it if I only knew that there is only 512MB. I just missed the fact that RAM is not listed in technical specifications because I could not imagine that the very top model, the newest one, with high-end other hardware, may be below the de-facto standard of 1GB. That is why swap is really important for us here and now.

As for HTC, they might have various reasons to do so... not only the technical ones...
[Gen9 Android Development] brbi:
Hello, you can not increase the size of the swap file more than 150mb?
[Gen9 Android Development] Quinny899:
Modify the file. 150 should be all you need though. It will also take longer to boot the higher you make it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
I just recently started using CM7 on my E4T. I have a problem where, when I am charging my phone when it's shut off it boots right back up. I believe this has to do with the kernel. Are there any kernels available for AOSP?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
No

That is the only one you can put it on airplane mode
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AwesomeTurtle:
Sorry to say, but there aren't yet any AOSP kernels outside of what's provided with CM7. Most kernel devs are catering to those [aesthetically frightening] TouchWiz ModROMs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
That's scary that only a few ppl are working on aosp. Especially I don't see ics being worked on much
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
How do you know Bubby and tcp have both said it's close to being released ....just a couple bugs
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
Really? Didn't kno this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
would it be possible to port an aosp kernel for the I777 to the E4GT seeing as they are very similar? I kno that the International version's kernel was ported to the I777 for ICS, but the big problem was the button routing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Will of fire:
no we are not GSM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
Well yes, but in the kernel couldnt you get replace the GSM with CDMA drivers? or am i talking out of my ass?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] T.C.P:
Talking out ur ass :p kernel needs to be done from source. None of which we have :p well regarding ics
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
Okayface.jpg :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] worry:
I have GSM Galaxy Nexus bought from eXpansys USA .

The problem is it often shows charging sign, while in reality it is not charging. And it drains battery like crazy. More over, when you actually connect the charger, it will not charge it, though the charging icon is on on the task bar.

Rebooting doesn't help. You can only fix it by removing battery. But next day it is the same. I've tryed to factory reset it - no use.

The frimware is 4.0.1. Mine didn't get OTA. I'm wondering if I upgrade it manually will it loose the warranty (since I have to root)?

The problem is described here also:

http://crave.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/samsung-galaxy-nexus-owners-report-battery-problem-50006595/

What can you suggest?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ridel:
I had this same problem and found a massive Google thread on this:

http://code.google.com/p/android/is...um&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars

Personally, I discovered it was a hardware, and not a software issue. The female USB port on the phone itself has an electrical contact in the middle. This was bent down so that it nearly touched the bottom of the phone.

Because of the larger tolerance on the female port, it's possible to shove the USB plug in and push the metal contact to the bottom. This means you've never really plugged the cord in, because the female contact isn't touching any of the metal contacts on the male side. This results in all sorts of weird OS issues, including the OS reporting it's "Not Charging" when it's on AC, and booting up with a charged icon and never changing.

I took a knife and while the phone was off, I just pushed the metal contact back up. Booted it up and volia, charging again (with the OS responding immediately).

So now I'm just very careful when plugging charging cables in.

However, the thread I linked has a lot of people reporting other problems, so I don't know if my little hardware fix will work for you.
