Weird, seems like a lot of people got this problem. Seems like some people on the official Amazon forum have confirmed that theirs do not do this and that they have noticed a difference when comparing with their new one from RMA.
[Kindle Fire General] kennb:
Mine does it too. I think of it more like image retention, like on a plasma TV. Thankfully not a permanent though :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slimslim:
A little disappointing, since they stated ICS by first quarter 2012, later this year means almost one year after ICS release...

Alright thanks guys
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
I was wondering if maybe we could use a post to organize some of the Mods/Tweaks we as A100 users can do. Especially since it may be a while before we have a custom ROM. Seems like a more central list of mod options would be useful. I would be happy to work on this.

Things we could incdlude

=======================

Improving Poor Viewing Angle(everyone complains about this)

-Turn the device upsidedown, as someone else posted a while back if you turn the

A100 so the "home" button is on the left instead of the right.

ALLOT of things seem to work better. The viewing angle is good,

the front viewing camera is no longer under my hand, and the

antenna is in a better position too I bet. It almost seems like that was the original orientation

Rooting(a100 and now a101 too)

- temp and perm install/uninstall, script & by hand)

Status of Custom ROM Development

Status of safe mods for: Build.prop, init.d, gps.conf, etc

- what mods can be done, the result, the versions tested on, etc

Making Recovery Images

-known methods, risk/benefit of them , links to instructions and files

Using Recovery Images

-known methods, risk/benefit of them , links to instructions and files

Boot Animations

-known methods, risk/benefit of them , links to instructions and files

Hulu fix(s)(lib mod, or huluplus(working on A100?))

-known methods, risk/benefit of them , links to instructions and files

Hidebar, Honeybar, NOT-VERY-INTERESTING BAR

-risk/benefit of them , links to instructions and files

UOT Kitchen(?)

-Can we use it? what features work?

General Suggested Utility Apps List Maybe

- I know the forum has an apps section already. Im just thinking the most basic things. Stuff like which busybox, terminal, file manager, etc are known to work well on our a100.

Maybe a running list of Any known major FUBAR apps. or features within apps that would for sure brick ur device.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] crossix:
Sounds more like a general FAQ to me, but a good idea. All of the mods I've released so far are in my sig for this very reason.. I was receiving lots of pms (hey where's xyz mod) lol!

Only bad thing is who's going to keep it up to date? Also it'll need to be stickied so that it doesn't get lost in general.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
Yep. I wouldn't be able to stickie it far as I know. I just keep thinking we have allot of cool stuff that can be done. However it takes hours and hours of reading to start to find that out :eek:. So I'm thinking it might be something I can do to contribute.

It would almost certainly help new comers figure what they have available.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] sephtdj:
I am new to the A100, so this is great idea for people in simular positions.;)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] crossix:
No worries on that one, I can help with that ;)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ptesmoke:
good idea...but honestly compared to the other devices forums i frequent this one is the cleanest..mostly because we actually dont have a whole lot of mods for our A100s. once a device has custom roms, radio releases,kernels and 18 different rooting methods thats when things get lost. the one thing that always was handy was creating a device wiki, that way its one page to keep up to date and can include everything. just the way ive seen things..when i first got my desire z the xda wiki was the best source for concrete information and guides.

just my .02 i still like your idea dont get me wrong! but maybe making a wiki would be a better idea than just a sticky?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] toyface:
I'd say that a kind of central knowledge base would be a great idea. Back in my Desire days they had just this sort of thing in the dev forum for kernels, sense and non sense roms etc. It was fantastic.

Spreading the word is one of the best things we can do to help others help themselves ;-)

i've done something identical to this to get the bootlogo from FreeXperia converted to jpg

Btw, thanks, very good tutorial. I hate to be doing something on Ubuntu and then have to restart my PC and enter Windows 7 to do the conversion to .rle

gonna try it when i got ubuntu.. :D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] iiandskater:
just install ubuntu to ur w7's virtual pc and itll be better.. :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] uremytoy:
well isnt it possible to do that on windows? coz everything is just to make initlogo.lre I think gimp can open it. also i can open tar files via 7zip. so isnt it just simplier? :D

P.S. Im using rom based on GDX and i saw there it is initlogo.rle in ramdisk.tar file and i rly dont like that yellow droid. Can i just delete initlogo.rle and it will be gone?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] iiandskater:
u can create .rle file on windows but u CAN'T pack .tar files using any windows apps because it'll create different permission for the files inside, so ur android system will be unable to load it..

and u can't just open android's .rle file with gimp, once again it is different !!
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] stupidho96:
is it possible to change the boot logo??

if my phone is with alfs kernel???

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capocaccia:
Hey the question I have is, after Ive flashed a rom, in this case the update to SGSICS 4.2, is there a way I can restore my screens just the way they were before? As in not have to drag and drop all my apps/widgets back into the places they were before hand? I dont care if its an app or if I can do it through CWM im open to all methods if any exist. That to me is the biggest PITA about flashing. I appreciate your help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Back up your launcher with tibu...it'll break the widgets, So you Will still need to place those back, but your dock and apps will be intact where they were.
[Omnia 7 General] FedeC87:
Hello,

I have Samsung Omnia and it's not sending/receiving sms/calls, but i have Internet access and full signal.

Why? Hot to fix?

I have the last ORIGINAL update OS and firmware.

I have try to reset my phone, but nothing...

Thanks
[Omnia 7 General] ballajalla:
Try with a different sim first.
[Omnia 7 General] hatuna:
Calls and SMS use different ''line'' of data than GPRS. It seems your problem is something like sim card or operator related. Another nice thing to check is wheather you use your own operator or you accidentaly switched to some other operator and now you have roaming. It CAN sometimes make problems with calling and sending SMS, though I have never heard about such case as you have.

Try to exclude operator or sim card problems first.

i just recently dropped my first generation Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant on the ground. most of the screen went black and i am unable to login into the phone. i am trying to figure out how to retrieve my photos off of the phone's on-board hard drive

i am able to put my phone in recovery mode by plugging it onto my mac and using ADB by running "./adb reboot recovery"

but when i run "./adb devices" it does not recognize my device

usb debugging is enabled on my phone.

i also do not have EasyTetherUSBEthernet installed on my mac

If you accept the credit it will extend your contract for another year. reps at the store wont tell you though upgrade date will remain the same though but if u thinking bout leaving don't take the credit
[Motorola Photon 4G] grdead25:
how do i get this 100 credit havent heard anything about it. I dont plan on leaving sprint anytime soon so why not if it dosnt effect my upgrade date.
[Motorola Photon 4G] A2CKilla:
most credits or discounts do this, that's why you do them at the start of a contract not in the middle or towards the end
[Motorola Photon 4G] Android 17:
Uh, the whole point of the credit is to get you to resign your contract, do you seriously expect $100 credit for nothing?

It might be that your rep is shady and was misguiding you about this, but it's always how it's been.
[Motorola Photon 4G] grdead25:
I just want to find out about this credit. I havent heard anything about it. And i am more then willing to add a year to my contract if it dose not effect my upgrade. I mean i love the photon but in 20 months i am sure i will want something new to play with.

[Motorola Photon 4G] KSmithInNY:
+1 when they killed premier that was all I needed to realize I'll be paying full price for phones and not signing any more contracts. The benefit of the contract is 100% one sided for the carrier. Where's my benefit? Them subsidizing $200 but charging me $350 if I wanted to leave?

Im curious what the OP believed the reason for the $100 was. I can't imagine someone would think a cell company, or any company for that matter, is giving away $100 no strings or expectations.

If it sounds to good to be true ......
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
$79.00 (+ tax) = $1896.00! Sprint is getting their share!!! I like the "you piss me off I'm outta here for free!" feeling! Not to mention, do you know how many free phones they have offered me?

[HTC Sensation] jaaystott:
It gladdens me to reveal a 'sort-of' official release date for Ice Cream Sandwich on the Sensation & Sensation XE! The following statement was released by HTC on their Facebook* UK page.

HTC has been working hard to get its Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades ready, and we’re excited to announce that our first round of ICS upgrades will roll out by the end of March for the HTC Sensation and HTC Sensation XE, followed soon thereafter by the HTC Sensation XL.​

Obviously the release date isn't going to be the most popular around people, as we were expecting the update to come much quicker. However this may point to HTC releasing Sense 4.0 to the Sensation straight away. Although it would be a strange market move, its after the MWC the just before HTC would probably release it's new phones. This article here talks about HTC's announcement.

The statement on HTC's page continues on to say the following.

In addition, we can confirm Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades will be coming later this year to the HTC EVO 3D, HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and HTC Desire HD. Stay tuned for more updates on Ice Cream Sandwich releases in the coming weeks​

*It has also been confirmed by HTC US (on Facebook) that the following devices will be getting ICS at some point later this year: The Rezound, Vivid, Amaze 4G and EVO Design 4G.

All these phones are in the USA!​
[HTC Sensation] gf7800:
Thanks for sharing !

Obviously it is a great news for the owners of "older HTC devices" , like DHD... etc
[HTC Sensation] leftheodo:
That's great news for everyone! I hope the keep doing that when our sensation gets "old" ;)
[HTC Sensation] jaaystott:
By HTC's standards, our Sensation is ancient! DHD is like a myan, never mind ancient...
[HTC Sensation] sinergybg:
Today HTC said on Facebook that the ICS update will include "the latest version of Sense". From what I know they are planning to introduce their new flagman phone very soon and it will be using Sense 4. Therefor I really hope our ICS will include Sense 4 as well. I was also expecting the OTA this month but maybe one month delay will proof worth waiting.
[HTC Sensation] gf7800:
Yeah , it is a 2010 model .. DHD is their "Best seller of all time"

as they stated on their own website ! Wish our Sensation will have such great support form HTC in the future.
[HTC Sensation] Aldosry:
been on ics for about 2 months now but an offical update is always great, hopefully it will include the sense 4.0
[HTC Sensation] jaaystott:

Sorry guys, but next time DON'T THINK. Just ask in source...

NO SENSE 4
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
Well the last leak had Sense 3.6, so I don't think the guy really knows.
[HTC Sensation] jaaystott:
Well he's obviously not going to confirm something that hasn't been announced. Sense 3.6 and 4.0 have bot actually been officially announced where as Sense 3.5 has. Sense 3.5 is currently the latest, but of course they wouldn't revert to 3.5 because it would be loads of development gone to waste!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JohnBoyDoe:
Hi there,

although i told to check every 15 Minutes the phone doesn´t check for new mail.

Running Android 4.0.2 with the build in Email programm. It is an Imap account.

How can i force my phone to have the Mails checked?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vennstrom:
It's IMAP, mail is pushed from the other side.

Powered by Galaxy Nexus™
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ateshga:
Thats wrong:

IMAP doesnt mean its push mail (that ist P-IMAP which the original poster didnt mentioned directly)

IMAP means all Mails are on the mail-server and managed there, even folder. THe advantage of imap is that the mails are stored at one place but can be managed from different clients.

That doesn´t solve the problem of not syncing. But perhaps someone else do have an idea? As i have the same problem here.

Greets

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ateshga:
I just found out that other mailclient (i have tried k9 so far) have the ability to check imap in user defined intervals.

So you have to try another mail client...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
IMAP works for me with the built in e-mail client. I have it syncing to my school's outlook express account (.edu address). I have it syncing every 15min and after some messing with the settings/certificates I have sending working as well.

If I had to offer advice I'd say that you should double check your incoming/outgoing server settings and the appropriate certificates/logins are set up.

I gave up on the native email apps a long time ago. I've been using the Gmail app for all my accounts for over 2 years now: http://www.androidcentral.com/using-gmail-your-own-personal-push-mail-server

gives me a BUNCH of options to set as a shortcut except the one i need =(

Hello pplllzzzi just saw the allshare app on the galaxy player 5.0 us version and then i tried using is somehow but it didnt work. Has anybody tried it and succesfully used it?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
The Allshare app uses DLNA. I have not tried it but my understanding is that DLNA is a media sharing protocol that works over UPNP. Basically, you need to have another device on your network that is sharing media files using DLNA. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but Playstation 3 uses DLNA right? I think there are DLNA servers for linux but I'm not sure about windows... Probably need to have UPNP enabled on router too...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] WT Ho:
If I am correct, Windows 7 comes with a DLNA server. The media player in Windows 7 can share music and videos with other DLNA devices.

You can also try something like Twonky, TVersity and many other DLNA server.

Lets try this:

Check whether your laptop can get an IP from your wifi.

I. YES

- Turn on wifi on your note.

- Go to Applications -> Settings -> Wifi settings.

- Look down at Wifi network.

- Touch into the name of your wifi then choose "Forget network".

- Turn off wifi on your note.

- Turn it on again.

- Enter the key and see what's happen.

II. NO

- Check your router configuration.
