It came out for the KF a good while ago. Both episodes even. I haven't tried EP 2 on it since it's now with my dad, but it works on my crappy 3.5" screen and 800MHz processor phone. So I don't think there should be an issue on the Fire. Haha.
[TouchPad General] sahhar1993:
hi guys

I have probleme in my touchpad . I got yellow spots in corners

Anyone got this probleme
[TouchPad General] ergo911:
Same here, I have 2 of them near to speakers. I only see them when the screen is black( like webos booting). Probably something is pressing to lcd. Can we do something against it? Does it go under warranty?
[TouchPad General] sahhar1993:
last i was have 2 but now i 6 spots
[TouchPad General] sahhar1993:
Now i understand its backlight bleeding and its in all touchpad
[TouchPad General] Moon2:
I have them at random spots at random times (sometimes right at the middle of the screen); I tried sending it in for repair, but they just sent it back after doing a doctor - so the problem is still there.

Took some pics when it happened if someone wants to see it.
[TouchPad General] Krunk_Kracker:
Maybe dead pixels?
[TouchPad General] Moon2:
No, in my case, it tends to come and go as it pleases.
[TouchPad General] VegasPhil:
I have those spots as well. I think its just normal clouding as on most TVs. Since its only visible when the screen is completely black, its not that much of a problem.
[TouchPad General] mountaindewmi:
One time I pressed down on the center of the screen by mistake with my elbow, and when I looked at the screen there was a yellow light halo in the center about an inch wide. I freaked out, but I 'massaged' the screen softly in the center and it went away. Might be something pressing behind the screen ?
[TouchPad General] tekrhino:
I've yet to get my TP, hopefully by next week.

But as I read all your posts, it sounds a little bit like "Screen Burn in".

But, burn in usually most noticable with a white screen, not a black screen like some you have mentioned. Again I'm just taking a wild guess here.

I guess I will be able to contribute more when I get my device.

But then again I'm Hoping I won't have this problem at all.

=o)

Edit: 02/10/2012

I've had my HPTP for over a week now and have yet to experience any yellow spots on the screen anywhere.

Could this be an issue that happens over a period of time?

How long have you guys had your HPTP before this problem started?
[TouchPad General] alex1301:
I have the problem also. There are also some issues, like glue-points between the display and the cover, the display sticks off at the home button and there are other issues of the production. My touchpad is only a few weeks old and now i will send it back under warranty.
[TouchPad General] Moon2:
I'd sent mine off and 2 weeks later on, I got it back the same way I'd sent it except it now came with webos 3.0.2
[TouchPad General] phonetec:
yup, same thing just happened to me
[TouchPad General] Xarick:
On the left side and up in the corner if it is a yellowish on dark that is lightbleed. I have it bad enough it is very visible even at 50%. This appears to be a common issue. I sent mine in for something else and it came back with still light bleed. They have offered advanced replacement, but the more I read the more I believe this is common and will never be fully free of it.
[TouchPad General] Moon2:
Here's a slideshow for people to make fun of:

Its actually worse than the camera picks up;
[TouchPad General] Xarick:
That is horrible and nothing remotely like light bleed. Send that bad boy in.
[TouchPad General] phonetec:
Yeah thats nothing like what I have. You should send that in
[TouchPad General] Moon2:
I already have, but as mentioned, it just came back the same way; I've had this problem since I've bought it.

The worst ones are at the edges of the screen, but I didn't manage to get pics of when it happened.
[TouchPad General] SpikeyPsyche:
Looks like internal screen delamination. That should def. be covered under your warranty as its a manufacturing defect that occurred when the screen was originally made. It's nothing you did.
[TouchPad General] Moon2:
The problem is that even though its under warranty, they don't do anything about it - possibly because they do not notice it as it pops up at random times.
[TouchPad General] Xarick:
I sent mine in again last week for the bleed in the corners. However, I included a drawing in the box to show them exactly where the problems were occurring. I am hoping the look at the drawing. According to HP they are shipping it back to me today.
[TouchPad General] Xarick:
Well I got it back. They did absolutely nothing. Infact they didn't even clean it. NICE.
[TouchPad General] itsDefying:
Tech support at its finest. LOL

Sent from my HP Touchpad with CM9!
[TouchPad General] Xarick:
I'll be calling to throw a fit tomorrow. When I sent it in I cleaned it. I got it back in worse condition. Had to remove and throw away the screen protector because they destroyed it.
[TouchPad General] tspx23:
I turned in my HP touchpad for warranty replacement due to some faint cracks that were appearing near the speakers.

I got a touchpad back that seems to be basically new... But it has those annoying yellow spots now :(. I am wondering if it is worth sending in but doesn't seem like its worth the time since it doesn't affect the screen.
[TouchPad General] Xarick:
My experience is no. I have sent mine in 3 times. The first time it had dust under the screen right in the middle that blocked light so it affected the device. They sent it back unrepaired. I sent it back in again after telling them how disappointed I was. They fixed it this time, but didn't get the screen correct and I had tons of light bleed in the upper left corner. I threw a fit again and sent it in. This time they reduced the bleed a little, but marked up the underside of the screen with two lines of stuff and left another spot of dust.

This time however it was up where it wasn't super visible. However, the didn't clean the unit and left it a mess with goop on it, screen protector destroyed etc. I threw a major tizzy this time and they asked me to send it in and they would just send me a new one. I am now awaiting my new one, but am pretty sure it will be hosed up as well.

HP has the absolute worst repair service I have ever experienced.
[TouchPad General] tspx23:
I'm pretty sure they sent me a new one just they have quality control issues. This one came in with plastic wrappers on the device.

Deciding not to send this one in.... doubt I will really be bothered by the screen bleed at least it's not white its a yellowish color and doesn't show up much.
[TouchPad General] achillesgk:
Confrimed too..i suppose is bleeding. But mu samsung galaxy sii has no beeding at all.

[Kindle Fire General] petiotshow:
I followed the steps to get Ice Cream Sandwich on the kindle from this link<redacted> and used burritoroot3 and kindle fire utility, after some hick-ups with the Yellow triangle for twrp 2.0 I got everything working last night, or so I thought. I went to bed, kindle was probably 30% charged, but I think it died. Today, it will not power on, not will it recognize it is being charged. I've used an outlet and the usb cable from the pc.

If anyone has experienced this or knows how to fix, I would GREATLY appreciate it.

Thank You
[Kindle Fire General] petiotshow:
anyone? I'm really hope I didn't just make my KF a paperweight, but I can't get it to boot, charge, etc. I've tried holding the power button 30+ seconds, nothing happens. A few times I've gotten the power button to flash green then nothing.
[Kindle Fire General] crpercodani:
I've never had this problem but perhaps you could try the debrick utility in development? And I'm assuming you tried holding the power button for like 30 seconds while charging on the wall?
[Kindle Fire General] petiotshow:
Nevermind, shew....i just kept trying and eventually it booted and i restored the the backup I made before putting ics on there.

You experienced the sleep of death I think. If it happens again just hold the power button for awhile. Other than that ICS runs good, don't be scared to use it
[HTC Desire S] Vertigo414:
Hi,

I use 2 Google calendars - first is related to my gmail account and second - to my another email address.

Last time I found the email address shown under both account is the same - it's my gmail address - and I don't see any new items in my "email account calendar".

I removed "email account calendar" subscription from my gmail account and added it again. Now the calendar list is Ok. (proper email addresses shown) but I don't see any items in my "email account calendar".

When I change something in my "email account calendar" (for example: edit existing item) - it appears on my Desire S.

I tried to

- remove/add calendar subscription

- remove/add calendar sync on my Desire S

- restart device

...but no luck :(

I'm sure the problem is related to my Desire S because:

- there are no issues on google calendar on the Web

- there are no issues on Thunderbird with Lightning calendar

I use the stock ROM with Android 2.3.5.

Any ideas/hints?
[HTC Desire S] jmmail:
set syn in user&account option.
[HTC Desire S] Vertigo414:
It's already set - as I wrote: when I change something in my "email account calendar" (for example: edit existing item) - it appears on my Desire S properly but all old events are not synchronized (until I change something in them).

So is it possible to dual boot more than one ROM with Kindle Fire?

For example: Dual Boot CM7 and Kindle Fire Stock ROM

Especially with this app:

[APP] SwitchMe - Securely Boot Into Multiple Installations of Android On Any Device

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Answer is NO....

From the thread you are pointed at:
[Kindle Fire General] theannihilator:
It is possible I have done it but the problem is you will get force close errorsfrom the aneroid.adore prossess and if you imports the factory reset process u have just messed the dual boot up. It only works with Roms that do notformat such as cm9 and gr6
[Kindle Fire General] Th3-Chronikk:
I don't believe that that is possible
[Kindle Fire General] theannihilator:
the process i used:

install GR6

install switchme

create 2 profiles

switch to second profile

once second profile has fully booted reboot into recovery

flash cm9 and gapps (optional)

reboot

your done.

but like i said your will get force close errors for the android.acore process and you will either have to deal with them or just not attempt the dual boot. Because if you were to do the only known fix you will wipe all the switchme profiles. I am working on trying to find a way to reestablish the profiles after a factory reset.

[HTC Sensation] hexen88:
My here :)

Ur screenshot is bad quality, can't compare
[HTC Sensation] keinenplandavon:
Mine as well.

But I am wondering a bit. A bit more. Everything is stock. European unlocked, unbranded 401 device. No s-off (yet) no root (obviously) and no intrusive things else.

Since I've gotten this device I had a mere of about five to ten small OTA updates, no manual things that I've had with all my HTC devices before.

No abstruse software, no manual apk that I had installed. Anyhow it got sluggish, stuttering in scrolling in every app, system bar crashes twice a week and so I had a reset via bootloader at the age of 1.50.401.1 (and no other update since then)...

...but at the moment I get a boottime of over 130 seconds, and thinking about the use of first app is at about 3 minutes after booting. ((of course I am thinking about s-off, clockworkmod, erasing everything, flashing RUU from (hopefully) trusted stock and so on... But as a computer forensic I am eager to know why this had happened to my beloved device.

It's sluggish in daily use, battery lasts 6h to a maximum of half a day and so on. No tweaking apps used (ever). But how does it match with my benches, they seem not only "quite" fine, whatever bench it will be. Just nice.

Any considerations?

[HTC Sensation] Android_Guy:
Funny how the results are LOWER using OC kernel...I tend to call bull**** on this one...CF Bench and Quadrant scores are better than stock using OC kernel...as they should be...
[HTC Sensation] omar302:
Do a Factory reset. (it will wipe all your data).

Then check if it is sorted out.

Try also running your phone without your SIM card & without your SD card to make sure they are not causing any troubles.

If it doesn't sort it out & your phone is under warranty, send it for repair.

If you want to try something else, flash the latest available RUU for your sensation (RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.50.401.1_Radio_10.56.9035 .00U_10.14.903) that you can get from this thread.

This is all you can do without affecting the warranty in anyway. If you phone is still sluggish, then its Hardware related and rooting/unlocking/S-off will NOT fix it.
[HTC Sensation] keinenplandavon:
(still off-topic) Yep, I'll have a hardreset anyhow, but I am curious what's exactly going on wrong in there, is it a corrupted file system, dozens of unwanted services, periodically starting file system checks on boottime or is there an annoying app (that i should not have had installed in the first place) that's causing constant hiccups.

And the intention of s-off and cwm was/is mostly for wiping dalvik cache and so on. But since it's totally off topic I should consider opening a new thread. But that's not soooo important, I'm just curious. But our crystal balls are still dark.

(so, back on topic) Indeed @ different kernels lead to lower scores. Weird.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindyabiznis:
Right i know youve had a million people ask what the best rom/kernel/modem is best for battery life and i also know their is no actual answer for this.

Im not askin that question... basically..

My girlfriends phone battery life is terrible no matter which miui rom/kernel/modem she is using she never really gets more than 10-12 hours battery life and this is with basically no usage whatsoever - litterally 2-3 15 minute phone calls, a half hour of music a few texts throughout the day and then intermittent facebook usage, no gaming no videos no long calls nothing else...

at night if she doesnt charge her phone it will go from 95% battery to 50-60% by the morning (6-8 hours later).

She doesnt have any background apps (i dont think - pretty sure) nothing intensive is ever running on the phone, and shes a very light user...

Basically i want to know WTF is goin on because she keeps moaning to me about it being a **** phone that she cant use for more than half a day without it dying.

She is runnin the latest MIUI 2.1.20 (5 or 6th version ive flashed over the past 6 months) with MIUI kernel and the ke3 modem i recently wiped the phone/cache/dalvik/internal storage.. EVERYTHING and then did a fresh install of everything to see if she would get a better battery - but no difference...

is there anything i can do to test if something is wrong? test background apps? test deep sleep mode?

i know battery life isnt spectacular on these phones but this definitely isnt as its supposed to be - 10-12 hours!!

Ive tried the siyah kernel with no difference, and there just isnt any apps or anything intensive running that i can stop to reduce the battery drain.

What can i do to solve this frustrating problem and stop her naggin me about it?

ANY help/pointers/advice/jokes would be greatly appreciated anything at all

I dont know which version of MIUI it was but i know it was the last version before the *no service glitch* version of MIUI was released (something is telling me V1.9.16???) if somebody knows that would be a great help because i could re-flash that version back on and see if the battery starts working like it should :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Could be some dodgey media on her SD card keeping the media scanner running, best bet is to remove all media, videos, pics, etc, and see what happens.

Take a screenshot of the wake lock part of the screen.

Also use os monitor to see if anything is using a lot of CPU.

right thanks for the help so far guys, in her gallery she had a folder of "downloaded" pics which was 160 odd pictures of funny images she decided to download and keep in her gallery... i dont know why - but they have been deleted now :)

will post an update

EDIT** in the battery monitor settings she has "android OS" at 43% is this normal?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Depends what else is going on, but if she's not using the screen much and the media scanner is going nuts then yes, as I think that falls under Android os.

Would still be good to get that screenshot.

ok will set about gettin you a screen shot, after deleting that picture folder the % on mediascanner has gone RIGHT down to 6%...

i'll get a screen for you though

Oh and "screen on" is at 28.5% whereas awake is on 74.4% after about 40 minutes unplugged
