[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] luminus69:
Yes I finally gave in and did a complete data wipe. Initially the problem went away as expected (because the Home screens were mostly empty after the factory reset). After all the apps and Home screen states were restored, the problem came back as before, completely reproducible.

So this got me thinking: perhaps it was one of the widgets, or too many widgets/folders/apps on the home screen that's causing this flickering. I finally narrowed down to just one: the stock News and Weather widget. As long as this widget is on either side of the center home screen (but not on the center home screen itself), the flickering will appear, completely reproducible! Since this widget is not really functioning properly under ICS (no setup screen) so no lost there.

Oh, and that more-than-7-or-8-apps-in-Recent-Apps thing will also produce flickering regardless of anything, but only when you first open it up. Otherwise it works the same as other overlays if other conditions are met.

Now I have to go restore about 20GB of stuff. Factor reset wiped it all clean. :( The thing is, I could've figured all this out without the factory reset. Oh well.

OP has been updated.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wokka00:
The News and Weather made no difference for me, but the number of items in Recent Apps did. Swiping items out of the list made the triangle flicker disappear from the home screen and from within other apps.

This bug only popped up for me once the jitter came back for me - any and all overlays (including the bottom bar, notification popup, and a couple monitoring apps) constantly move up and down a few pixels. I can't capture on my cell phone because the frame rate is apparently in sync, but this video from another poster here shows it:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MOD64:
I really hope Gary and Asus will address this issue shortly.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MysteriousDiary:
I sometimes have a flickering and screen freeze during games like Reckless Racing 2 or some other too. A workaround is to go back to homescreen then and close the app where it happened.

Not sure if it's the same problem you guys are talking about.

Got still the 9.4.2.11 build here in germany. This never happened to me in the last weeks, but since 2 or 3 days I got it a few times while running games (without the dock).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] frabjous:
The .14 update has greatly reduced this issue for me, but there is still a very brief flicker when showing the recent apps menu if there are a lot of apps in it
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xijuan:
same problem

I always had this problem. I did factory reset once and the problem remained. After the .14 update, i still have the problem. Really really really want to have the problem solved..But thank you so much for telling me how to reproduce the problem
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 1lazysheep:
can't reproduce it either, but i still experience it once in a while. a minor bug, but still among a long list
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mossination:
This is just a personal question i wanted to ask. Do you guys know if its easier to build Roms or to build themes. And which one takes a longer amount of time regardless of skill.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tomtommy306:
I have never built a ROM, but have themed for over a year and find it to be easy but challenging. And the amount of time it takes for me to build a theme depends on how complex I want it. It can take from a few hours to a few days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mossination:
Yeah just started theming myself and was just curious.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
I started porting theme too. I have two theme for Sky Ics, located in Theme forum.

Quick question. R you making your theme or porting?? WHat are you using to do it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mossination:
Im trying to port a theme and using it as my first theme. Its really just for learning though. At least the first one is. If you mean what image apps i use. I use paint.net, fish icon editor(can't remember the name), and photoshop.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
if you really wanna do easy port use apk manager. Its script runs smooth and easy.:p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
you should move up in the world to apk multitool
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mossination:
Yeah im using multi tool.

Edit: is there a way to change the launcher dock? Or do i have to mess with a .9 for that? I've been searching for a way to do it. I would of just used helauncher which lets you change the dock but its not in the market anymore and wanted to see if i could just put it in the flashable zip instead of having to do through the launcher settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
So as i told you here is the zip file. Wali01x thank you for this!:p:p:p:p
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Haven't really done much to my phone in a while but now that I got the sdcard issue fixed and the phone is stable I got on here to see if any new developments in the ulocked bootloader front and noticed we now have an update to 2.3.6. I wish it was ICS but that's coming, so I'd like to upgrade to the latest firmware and would like to know the best way I should go about it.

I'm currently rooted and have removed most of if not all of the bloatware, I've read that can cause problems when doing the OTA update. Is that true? If so, will doing a factory reset restore all that's needed to allow me to do the OTA?

I have no desire to flash lfabers deodexed 2.3.6 since the volume rocker isn't working right (or so I heard).

If a factory reset is not good enough should I install RSDLite 5.6 and flash the 2.3.5 FXZ and then do the OTA?

Let me know what you think as I'd like to make this happen as seamless as possible, don't need any surprises ya know?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Moverf16:
This is covered in the noob thread, but...

Factory reset will not be good enough, since the OTA update actually looks for the bloatware to update.

Before you do anything, I recommend going into Atrix 2 Bootstrapper and creating a backup. You'll have to flash back to stock, update, then use the Motofail one click root in the noob thread. Then you can restore your data using the Bootstrapper.

I highly recommend the Supercharged V5_1 ROM and ICS theme, though. :cool:
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Go ahead and take the jump, you won't be disappointed. Both the stock and V5 are very good
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
At first the deodexed 2.3.6 wasn't completely working because of a bad deodex, but lfaber06 got that all worked out.

If you want to update to stock 2.3.6 you will have to flash the 2.3.5 fxz first to get all your bloatware back.

Doing the OTA while rooted is fine, it will just remove your root and then you can just re-root.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Thanks guys...I have followed the steps outlined above (and in the referenced noob thread) and have successfully flashed the 2.3.5 fxz. Downloading the OTA as we speak.....Gonna get root back once that's installed then reinstall the CWM bootstrap and then restore from the backup I made at the beginning of this process and i'm good to go right?
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
Restoring the CWM backup will restore you back to 2.3.5. However, CWM is awesome enough that it will let you restore only parts of the backup. Boot into CWM, got to backup and restore, then go to Advanced Restore. If you select "Restore data" you will get back your apps and settings but keep 2.3.6.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Cool...restoring as we speak. Thanks for your help
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
Glad to help!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
You guys are the ****!

The flashing/update/rooting/restoring process went off without a hitch and my device is back to how I had it setup before I started it. This was my first time ever using the CWM Recovery bootstrap and RSDLite so I was a bit nervous but after using then I realize that CWM Recovery and RSDLite is just like xRecovery and FlashTool for my previous SE Xperia X10.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Well it gets even easier then using RSD lite. Get jydaddy's RAZR boot into CWM exploit and install it! Well worth it. With his exploit everytime you boot you boot into CWM.All you do is perform one extra step to reboot. Say you flash something and it goes wrong , instead of having to boot into fastboot and flash the fastboot files with RSD you simply pull the battery, let it boot into CWM and perform a simple restore. Your phone never gets hooked up to a single cord and saves sooo much time for!!!
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
+1 the exploit is great!

i been trying to find the rite combo for 3 months.. speed and good battery life.. i swear i have flashed every rom every kernel 10 times over!! lol.. i flashed infected rom eternity with infected anthrax kernel.. witch i have flashed meny times befor but this times diff my phone is running super smooth.. im geting bangin benchmark scores and my battery is good so far.. i wounder why it was never like this befor?? hope it stays like this..
[HTC EVO 3D] Saneless One:
I hope so too.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
*Refers to sig*

This is what I was saying the whole time I was here lol. Eternity coupled up with any of the Anthrax kernels were THE best way for performance and battery life. Glad to know people are catching on though. I could never fully go back to other ROMs after this.
[HTC EVO 3D] ncfastls1:

i just i spook to soon.. i just tryed to use the camera and it all messed up?? its mad fuzzy.. its the eternityr130 rom.. has this happen to anyone else?? i hope i can find a fix cause im loving my setup rite now other than my camera not working.. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] phreezex:
use stock kernel that comes with r130, problem solved
[HTC EVO 3D] codito:
Latest Fresh ROM has incredible battery life, over 14 hours and still over 50%, plus it's very fast and smooth. Plus it's not buggy and doesn't have a stupid name or ugly theme!

[HTC EVO 3D] P.Mobile:
can i still overclock??? with the kernel that comes with it???
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Fresh rom is has the best battery life haven't had mine on charger. It has been 3 days on the last charge only few secs on I had it connected to the computer was to take some screen shots using ddms.bat tool...

I use it on the net and so on youtube...

I just wanna get a theme in for it and I would be happy...
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Chad's older kernels are built for the older base. So his kernel with 2.17 will have issues. Update to his r14 test kernel. Camera works, although there is no preview. It still takes pics fine though.

He'll be releasing r15 in a few days that fixes everything. He currently has the only non-stock kernel for 2.17 that doesn't ha e a completely jacked up camera.

Can't get it on XDA because they hate bonafide devs now or something stupid like that. Check infectedrom.com
[HTC EVO 3D] P.Mobile:
will do thanks alot bro...

And you still talk about the ddms.bat tool thingy. Oh boy. lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Lol ya well it's free part of ADB. Why not :D

Seriously. Get a life.

ViperRom is working pretty good for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] AndroidStyle:
i used to be on Eternity ROM for a while, now im on Android Revolution HD...

i love it, super smooth and best battery saver...

i always use Chad's (Anthrax) kernels, they are the best :)

I love me some ddms.bat. Its a great tool.
[HTC EVO 3D] codito:
He's 100% right, that, along with the huge persecution complex and sense of entitlement so many 'devs' have here is the reason people consider XDA a cesspool of idiocy.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] modine:
the firmware update a few weeks ago (not .14), but .13 came out and I was downloading it and it turned off and never came back on. The only thing I get is the power light (amber then green) when plugged in.. Was trying to get help on transformerforum.com, but nobody has a clue even though I'm not alone. I have done all resets about 100 times (literally). The vol down and power, reset hole etc etc etc... Sent ASUS email two weeks ago and no response yet. I wanted to try and access it from the computer, but their drivers are a joke and the one for the Prime doesn't even work (doesn't download). The only option I think is to try something via usb on my PC or Mac, but none of the drivers work!

Anyone help??

Would really appreciate it.. TIA

Hello,

Can the samsung galaxy attain be rooted on metropcs?

thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dreadlockedgypsy:
Root please!

I realize this is a new phone, but its relatively cheap price, decent specs and the fact it is on a contract free carrier make for a potentially popular phone.

There are a few threads elsewhere ie:

androidforums Attain 4G - All things Root

There are no specific forums for this device on XDA yet.:confused:

Please, please, please let the development begin!

I am willing to use my phone as a test device and assist in whatever way possible. I would like to find a stock img to flash back to if everything fouls up though.

Thank you XDA Devs!

Samsung Galaxy Attain™ 4G LTE (SCH-R920)

Generally

Who sets up a new forum? This is different from the Samsung Galaxy S II Attain on AT&T. (Hence why this thread is here...)

Samsung Galaxy Attain™ 4G LTE (SCH-R920) is on the MetroPCS vendor, with its own issues.

Personally

I've tried compiling tarballz to build a new kernel zImage from opensource.samsung.com (cygwin, Sourcery G++/Bench lite, Odin), flashed the kernel tarball in the PDA section of Odin, notice a red 'KERNEL' verification FAILED, and wouldn't go past SAMSUNG screen; boot loops. New fix to stop exploits?

I'm an idiot, and bricked my phone. It's been bricked for a week now. Need fix plz. OEM ROM?

Is anyone working on this? I've seen maybes, but nothing firm. Don't know my specs, but I assume the same as this page.

There is no development underway for the attain. The only option is a pre rooted flash able tar. Someone was able to get their hands on a rooted rom which can be flashed via Odin. There are no custom roms but u will have super user access and full root. Please also be aware there is no clockwork recovery, so no nandroid or flashing zips.

I have discovered a nasty little bug in the prime, mainly that the wifi (without BT on, mind you) is so slow that I cant even stream a 240p video without it buffering and stopping every few seconds. Can the rest of you stream video fine? (Not only from the YouTube app but from online sources)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fujidave:
My first time posting here, so please be gentle.

I've had my SGS2 for around 6 months now, its an unlocked ASIA (as I live in BKK). I noticed on the original stock firmware that the phone was running hot, as in the back panel around the camera would heat up to the point I could feel it in my pocket. This would normally happen if I was using a game like angry birds, or a psx emulator. But sometimes it would happen in the browser under normal conditions. I just thought this may be a issue with dual core phones, so I took this as a 'feature' and accepted it.

But now lots of people I work with have this phone, and it came up in conversation about heat. Everyone stated they do not have this issue, that the phone remains cool all the time.

I have moved between many different ROMs, and have finally stuck with Westcrips ICS ROM. Then a strange thing happened, the heat issue goes away with version 8.4. Phone is cool all the time, even playing my PSX emulator in software mode. Battery also increased from 12 hours to 16-18 hours.

But now I just moved up to 9.3, and its back again, the front screen is very hot to touch when using things like the MX video player, or surfin the web. And if I launch a game ... well, forget about it. The battery drain is immense to, be lucky if I pull an hour of use like that.

Anyone else suffer from this? Hardware fault? I can't take it back because my flash counter is probably in the 20's now, and I can't find a reset JIG in Bangkok.

Cheers.

FYI, I always do a clean wipe, dalvik / cache / permissions.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saisuay:
same issued here, phone bought from Thailand also. Phone getting hot when browser,downloading and playing some games( not all). And its really hot

Changing Rom and kernel sometimes solved it for awhile but eventually will come back.

Looking for solution also

Thanks

P/s: right now im using LA4 stock Rom and CF root LA4 kernel and still get hot
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fujidave:
Thanks for getting back to me.

The one I know that fixes it is Resurrection 8.4. Its a dam good rom, and given me the best battery life (once I got 20 hours with normal use). But there is an issue with touch screen sensitivity that makes it annoying.

Maybe its something to do with the Kernel on the Asian models?

If I find a fix I'll pm you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krauxe:
Hmmm mine only gets uncomfortably hot when playing some 3d games. Didn't experience the same level of heat when just browsing though... It just gets a little warm but far from gaming temps.

What i did was undervolt and underclock when playing. It did reduce the heat and extend the battery though i admit it's not the best solution / workaround.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fujidave:
What settings did u use for setcpu if u don't mind me asking? Will it work on ICS?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krauxe:

Cheers mate, will give that a go when I get home.

Right now my phone is warm all the time, just lost 20% battery as well in 1 hour.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fujidave:
Well it looks like the ICS kernel is not supported right now under Tegrak. It is bleeding edge.

I tried setCPU to under clock but ended up with a lot of slow down and some full system freezes.

Guess its back to 8.4 until I find a more definitive answer.

Since you're using Westcrip's Resurrection Remix, you can get rid of the triangle by using Chainfire's TriangleAway app - I'm using Resurrection too and it got rid of the flash counter and the triangle.
