Hm, it happened again too me and this time my multitasking bar was almost empty.

took a short videoclip of it. the quality is pretty bad and unsharp, but you can see how the screen is flickering. At this state I can't do anything in the game, but Android is still responsive.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I had the flickering or screen jumping happen on some games initially. wasn't related to update as it happened several updates back. this only happened in some graphic heavy games. reboot solved it and never has happened again since. I think it was more of a compatibility issue with ICS than anything else.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blairware:
This was why I rolled back to .14

Well, one of the reasons. The other was a pathetic attempt to get back the best, but of course still unusable GPS performance to date, on .14.

Only had flickering/static screen events perhaps 2 or 3 times, but wanted to check out the "load any version" method (works like a charm)

Haven't had any issues, and wasn't bothered by update notifications until today.Anyone want to tell me how to blow off an update, permanently?

my phone has cyanogenmod 5 installed on it, but it will not charge to 99%, it will charge to roughly 66%, than be completely dead after 30 minutes. I tried using 2-3 different roms, with the same result. I am using a usb cable to charge it, (still waiting on the ac charger), would this have anything to do with it?, or do i need a new battery
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ljjj:
My battery died about 18 months after I bought it. Sounds about like what you are experiencing. Take it to a store and borrow a battery and see if it charges. But I would think you just need a new battery.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sevenupspot:
sorry, I should have followed up on this thread. It turns out, the charger i was using, which was an off-brand charger, was only producing 500ma. i bought an htc mytouch branded charger, and it produces 1000ma, so now it charges just fine and easily lasts throughout the day. thanks for the response though :cool:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AidanBell:
For reasons I cannot fathom I cannot set text alert sound for Voicemail. I can set, as I should be able to, sounds of my choice for any number (I happen to use "Ringo pro" because I like the app), however, I simply cannot find any way of having and audible alert when texted by voicemail (901 from O2, which is saved as a contact like any other). Can anyone offer any thoughts or advice, please?

Many thanks,

Hi everyone

I recently got my first android phone - Samsung Galaxy W.

I decided to install a custom rom. Before that i had to root my phone which i did without any problems. After that i had to flash ClockworkMod v5.5.0.4. I downloaded the file which was in zip however i didn't extract it (which is what i should have done) and copied into my phone's memory. After that i put this code in the command promt

adb shell

$su

#dd if=/sdcard/

recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-ancora.zip of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13

After rebooting the phone i can only get into the download mode in which nothing happens. And when i connent the phone to my pc the computer doesn't detect that my phone is connected. What shall i do now? Is my phone a brick now?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getsumhax:
Okay i found out that my pc detects my phone however it is marked as unspecified device which means that i can't do anything with it.

Tommorow i install ubuntu and see if i will be able to connect to it.

Any other suggestions?

I am on stock 2.3.6. I installed 1.2 apk and it really lags alot.

Xperia play unrooted and stock seems to play it quite smoothly, nexus S is more powerful so surely it should run smooth??
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guru2468:
I have the same problem and I also like to know how to fix it.. The game runs reaply badly for my usual gaming habits. I use Matrix kernel @ 1.46GHz and the latest CM9 nightly. I get really high bench scores for 4.0.3 and overall performance kicks the ass of my friends' stock Galaxy SII I-9100. :)

Tegra 2 Games on the Nexus S

I've never tried it because I have yet to experience the problems you describe but perhaps it's worth a try.

You without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
Whats the point then of playing? :confused:

I have generally found the general section to be most responsive. That method you are saying is via root and I am not rooted.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
I always played it on mute anyway, and after deleting the audio files i got a massive jump in performance (audio was being processed even with volume at 0). Personal preference, but a noticeable fps jump.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
So I guess the game isnt optimized for powerVR?? It seems to run fine on adreno 205, this is disappointing. :(

I mainly want to play it for the nostalgic bit and the audio is really important part of it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
The nostalgia value of my GTA3 experience was with a sound bug that forced the rain to play constantly. Not really the highlight of the game for me :p

The sound on the Nexus S seems kind of delayed and i've noticed many games that slow down a little as sounds are meant to kick in. I don't know exactly why, maybe mediaserver isn't given good enough priority. This seems to be the same issue that plagued my GTA3 adventures though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce lee roy:
perhaps being rooted is the reason I have yet to experience the problems you describe. I play gta and games which are more graphic intensive than gta with np.

I don't think the processor is to blame for your inability to play the game. The ns processors have proven to be more than capable of handling most processes. Rather, the stock software does not allow the hardware to reach its full potential. In other words, the nexus s is a peacock you; you've got to let it fly.

You without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
I havent experienced lag in any other game and I have played a few. Asphalt 6 runs smooth as well.

And btw my audio runs perfect and never stutters.

I saw youtube video of overclocked nexus S running GTA3 and even that had performance issues.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] migueldbr:
just install 1.3, i used to have major lag on 1.2 on my nexus s but on 1.3 i have no lag. Huge improvement!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] continuum51:
Peacocks don't fly :P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike.b93:
renaming the "audio" folder into "audio1" made the game much much smoother. i don't mind the missing sound. But isn't there a way to make it run even better? i still experience some massive lag problems...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vetvito:
Huge gain in performance by deleting the Audio folder. Thanks for the tip, now I can enjoy this game.

Controls take some getting to.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaju123:
If you honestly think that your quadrant score makes your phone with a single A8 cortex core faster than two A9 cores there is something seriously wrong with you. Software tweaks can make up to 1% difference in actual performance.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
Just did that and you got me excited as there was no lag in the opening cutscene. But it was back as soon as I started driving. :(

The sad part is I thought I wouldnt care about the game as the controls would be really bad but they arent that bad, it's very much playable but the performance is the issue.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenie25:
Don't forget that the xperia play has a super fast graphics chip. That's why most of the time it will outdo may other newer phones with gaming in mind

I didn't say that the hardware is faster, I just sayed that the real world performance of my Nexus us better in this particular case. Also I sayed that my scores are high, but I didn't really relate that to making a significant difference...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guru2468:
Isn't our SGX540 faster? I would say the game is just well optimized for the Xperia Play. Our GPU is pretty ok, it's actually still built in to the Galaxy Nexus (although I think it is higher clocked in this newer phone
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce lee roy:
I'd like to also add that gpu clock speed is adjustable through nstools.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3ej4y:
How? I only see options for CPU overclocking.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
LiveOC. This will overclock the CPU and the GPU as a percentage (stock GPU speed is 200mhz). You will most likely need to slightly raise voltages or you may end up with reboots.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurnishdhillon:
Hello Guys not sure if this has been spoken of before or not but since coming from the Galaxy S2 to the Note , I notice the the MIUI.ADW launcher (link from market below) which i was using full time on the SGS2 now seems to act very ugly on the note. All the icons are very very small on the note and i have tried pretty much all the settings to fix this on the launcher but nothing seems to work .

I also saw that on the market page for this launcher that a certain user was commenting that he has written to the developer but no response yet...

DO we have anyone on this blog who can perhaps help fixing this for ppl like me using this launcher on the note?

I have attached the image of how it is looking on the note right now

it's just that i had gotten so used to using the ADW.MIUI launcher on my SGS2 that wud have loved to have it working on Note as well .....infact a note user has even written a comment on Google Play on the launcher's page to state that it is not fully working on the note ,,but so far no response from the developer....

Those people here really need to calm down and learn to STFU. *****ing around instead of just ignoring a thread they consider useless really isn't the way to go.

They don't think about that this will land on Google too and people that actually search won't find an answer because of them. Therefore they will open another thread.

Hooray for LARGE LETTERS!

OP

: do your reading, everyone else has - yes, ICS is expected to launch this month. No, it does not mean you'll get it straight away. Samsung will pass it on to your carrier, who, depending on their reliability, may have it to you soon, or, in the case of a lot of carriers in my country, will take months.

In my honest opinion, you're better off investing in a USB Jig (or downloading Chainfire's TriangleAway), and flashing an AOSP ROM such as CyanogenMod 9.

Everyone else

: thank you. I personally agree with the first few people - he/she should have done their research first.

Just Made the grid a bit better. Easier to get straightet shots. I'm thinking of making the center's black and the long lines white.

Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
I think you miss the point of the grid... you have too many lines too. It's meant for the rule of thirds, keeping things straight is kind of a bonus. And screen should be in thirds, not quarters.

Rule of thirds in a nut-shell describes lining the subject of focus with one or more of the lines or anchor points (where the lines meet). It's for better composition vs centering everything.

EDIT: Although what would be AWESOME would be an actual level controlled by the gyroscope/accelerometer. The Canon 60D and a few others have this... as you tilt the screen, a line will show how much tilt there is compared to a straight line that doesn't move. I'd love to have that as an option!

So I was just wondering if anyone here is familiar with Android SE and if the security enhancements would be an interest here for the E3D. The NSA has developed this version, or at least was a part of it, to help with some security problems in Android devices, but the technical details of it kind of go over my head.

Would this potentially be so secure it could cause more head-aches with access than anyone would really want? Would this help with the malware problem with Android (not that i've been hit, but I know someone who was. And I know Google has Bouncer now). And is this an interest to anyone here?

[LG Revolution] njKeever:
I'll keep it short because I'm having too much fun with my new Galaxy Nexus. My Revo was having problems so I called Verizon yesterday to get it replaced (under warranty). They didn't have any Revos in the warehouse so she asked me what phone I wanted. I told her I wanted a Galaxy Nexus. She said it probably wouldn't be accepted because it is so much newer and more expensive than the Revo, but she went ahead and submitted it. 12 hours later FedEx shows up with my new (refurbished) Galaxy Nexus!

I've already got it unlocked, rooted, flashed, and overclocked. The dev community is amazing on this phone, and the Gummy Rom is amazing. I highly recommend this phone if you get the chance.

On a side note, my issue with the Revo was that it wasn't charging correctly. I thought it was a battery issue so I warrantied the battery and ordered a pair of extended batteries from eBay. Since that wasn't the issue and I no longer have a Revo, if anyone wants to buy any of my two stock batteries or two extended batteries with door, PM me.

how did u get them to give u a nexus? i tried calling today and all they would offer me was a tbolt or a charge... i dont want either... i need something with hdmi and the ability to run pse for ff7 loll
[LG Revolution] njKeever:
BACK STORY:

Well, first I took it into a physical store and asked if there was anyway I could get a different phone instead of another Revo. He said their only option was if it was my third replacement but told me to try calling Verizon. When I called I told the lady everything I could think of to get her to send me a different phone. She told me her hands were tied and could only send me another Revo. I finally caved and told her to go ahead and process it. She then says, "Well, it looks like we don't have any Revolutions in the warehouse so we'll have to send you something else." She then began to read some options: Thunderbolt, Charge, Stratosphere, etc.

ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION:

I told her I really didn't want any of the options she listed and asked if there was any way I could get a Galaxy Nexus instead. She told me she is able to select it, but since it was so much newer and more expensive it would probably be declined. I told her I was willing to take the chance and to go ahead and process it. It obviously worked because I now have a Galaxy Nexus!

TL;DR

I said "Please submit the request for a Galaxy Nexus!"
