[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] mywingtophone:
I dont have the note anymore as i sold it in favor of the 7.7 . Because the note have a smaller screen it will definitely have a more sharper picture because of its higher dpi even if it has an inferior pentile screen but the 7.7 also have a very pleasing screen.

One solution to even increase the tabs brightness and saturation is to go to settings - screen - mode and select dynamic color. You will see the the screens will become even more vivid with more pronounced color.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] TonyBigs:
One of the few things about the 7.7 screen is that:

There is a slight greenish tint when viewing a white screen off angle.

Flesh tones, light tan have a color shift when viewing off angle (probably the green again).

Otherwise, no dead pixels, burned in images, streaks or other defects.

If anything, I can't get the screen dim enough indoors, at full brightness indoors the thing is a flame thrower, outside, the brightness is good.

There are three modes: "dynamic", "normal", and "movie" (as compared to normal)

Dynamic -- strong color boost, strong contrast obliterating bright and dim detail, some edge enhancement.

Normal -- slight color boost, light contrast, some edge enhancement.

Movie -- reasonable color, reasonable contrast, least edge enhancement.

The best overall mode in my opinion is "movie", "normal" will probably satisfy most people and still have the Wow! factor, "dynamic" definitely has the Wow! factor but is probably too much of a good thing and ultimately picture quality suffers.

The power saving option has color settings as well. I think all of those affect the picture negatively (too blue-ish looking).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] torakun:
7.7 is better, I owned Note, then sold it for this. While Note is pleasing to look at, 7.7 is taking it up a notch for me. Owning the device for more than 1 month, I still get wow-ed whenever I turned on my 7.7..
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] pikulu:
But my nightmare is the screen itself!

Samoled tends to degrade very quick and i just hate those screen burn in ,bacause i own a galaxy s and omg the screen burn in is horrible!

And i also searched xda about 7.7's screen and got to know about the circles,uneven brightnes blah blah blah. . . . .

All these things force me not to buy a samoled device ever.

According to phonearena samoled plus produces more warmer colours than samoled,

is this true for 7.7 and note too?

As per as the the photos on colour gamut section shootout in phonearena its clearly visible that samoled plus produces more darker and vivid colours?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I own both devices. In general, I would say that the Note appears brighter to me than my 7.7

However, the 7.7 has much more accurate and balanced colour reproduction than the Note, especially when using movie mode on both devices. Movie mode is generally warmer and more natural looking.

Don't get me wrong though, both screens are really fantastic in their own rights, and I love both. I just use the 7.7 more often due to its form factor.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] EarlZ:
In my own opinion, I find the Note to have a better color balance which is more neutral compared to the Tab7.7, side by side the Tab7.7 does offer more saturated colors, lower white brightness and deeper blacks. Disregarding the smaller form factor and the video clipping issue on the Note, I find watching movies on the Note slightly better because it does not crush a lot of shadow details.

Of course not all screens are made and calibrated equally, so my opinion will surely differ from everyone else.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] pikulu:
Me too accept that tab 7.7 has one of the best displays available in the market,but what about the burn in issue,dark circles,uneven brightness?

I was thinking of buying the 7.7 in this week but these issues dont allow me to do so . . . . :o:mad:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] TonyBigs:
Perhaps the SAMOLED+ should be treated like plasma screen:

Keep the contrast at a minimum levels for the first 100 hours of use or so.

To me that would mean setting the 7.7 screen mode to "movie" and brightness to about 25% or less and having a less dynamic low contrast background for that time.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] pikulu:
You mean if i will set it to low brightness for 1st 100 hours, it wont get that burn in effect?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] aboozar.khadivi:
Super AMOLED Plus, first introduced with the Samsung Galaxy S II and Samsung Droid Charge smartphones, is a further development where the PenTile RGBG pixel matrix (2 subpixels) is replaced with Samsung's "Real Stripe" (3 subpixels) RGB RGB subpixel arrangement. This goes from eight to twelve subpixels per group, resulting in finer details. The screen technology is also brighter, thinner with AMOLED Plus displays being 18% more energy efficient than the old Super AMOLED displays.

HD Super AMOLED is a new Super AMOLED type display from Samsung. The first device to use it is the Galaxy Note: an Android v2.3 phone with a 5.3" 1280x800 display. The phone (and the display) was announced in September 2011. The second device to use it is Samsung's Galaxy Nexus phone - with a 4.65" display with 1280x720 resolution. The higher resolution and dpi were made possible due to a change in materials and new manufacturing process, though still using shadow mask (or fine metal mask (FMM)) technology. However this required a change back to pentile RGBG subpixels

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Super AMOLED Plus (WVGA) — Samsung Galaxy S II, Samsung Droid Charge, Samsung Infuse 4G, Samsung Focus S, Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7

HD Super AMOLED (PenTile, HD) — Galaxy Nexus, Samsung Galaxy Note

Some prices you should know:

LCD-Amoled at the moment a iPhone 4 3.7 inch IPS-LCD cost 38.50 dollars.

4.3 inch Super-Amoled-Plus Galaxy S2 50-55 dollars.

7.7 inch Super-Amoled-Plus (Galaxy Tab 7.7) 150-170 dollars.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Erm, wrong... It's 8 sub-pixels for the PenTile SAMOLED and 12 sub-pixels for the SAMOLED+ "Real Stripe"
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] pikulu:
Guys i know the difference b/w samoled+ and samoled hd but my question is how to get rid from those burn in issues,dark circles,uneven brightness etc.

I scecifically want to get rid from the burn in issue because i already have a galaxy s and i can clearly see the horizontal lines,clock etc when on a plain white,grey,green etc colour screen.I can even adjust with the dark circles and uneven brightness because i will mostly be using this on max brightness.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] teiglin:
You know 8:12 is the same ratio as 2:3, right? In that image, the blocks are of four pixels, so I don't see it as wrong to say that there are two subpixels per pixel on RGBG PenTile, even if it doesn't capture the subtleties of how images are actually displayed. Certainly there is a 2:1 ratio of subpixels to actual pixels in RGBG PenTile vs. 3:1 in RGB stripe.

You can't completely remove burn-in, only take steps to mitigate it. Use as much black in your theming/backgrounds as possible. Remove static UI elements like the status bar. Normal advice is also to run lower brightness, though I guess that isn't an option for you.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] pikulu:
Any precautions to be taken for 1st few weeks use?

I can see the burn in even in max brightness on my samsung s8500,will i notice the burn in too on 7.7 at max brightness?

My s8500 shows burn in like horizontal faint lines,status bar etc; so apart from the status bar anyhing else like faint horizontal lines on 7.7 after burn in?

Is the status bar burn in noticeable at max brightness?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] bdroc:
Look into Screen Filter, or Total Screen Control. I like Total Screen Control better because of the widget and presets, but it is not free.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basvampire:
what happen to my overscroll glow i am not happy with this !! i recently installed a criskelo rom v38 with ics theme in the begining the oversroll glow was cyan colored ... then i installed a battery mod .. after reboot the overscroll color changed to greeen .. its somewhere green and some where cyan ! :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
Just a guess as you haven't provided much info.

You have installed a battery mod containing the different coloured overscroll glow image.

It's not a big deal only an image file. If you don't know how to do it you might ask the creator of the battery mod to change it for you.

The reason some are normal and some are changed is because some apps like browser have overscoll glow contained within the app and don't use the system wide image.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kachrukamble:
It is the bat. mode effect.

when you flashed bat mode, system UI has been changed.

only option is flash once again your rom...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
Thats one option but not the only option.

Did you do a CWM backup before flashing a mod? Hope so. If not kick yourself now.

Does the battery mod creator have a reset to stock version to download and flash? If not they should.

There are other options before you reflash your entire Rom.

The Screen unlocks in the "slide to unlock" mode, by just a press of the "

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Edward Stanbury:
its a feature, you can disable it in the build.prop file, i cant remember the line sorry.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Phanatic:
Yes It's a feature in ICS as you can slide notification bar down in locking screen.

There is these three different ways to unlock: notification bar, "settings" button and slidelock.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jy0thish:
Thanks. But how do I disable it?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Use a file manager with root access, go to /system/build.prop and open it with a text editor. I recommend ES file explorer and then es text editor it comes with.

Find the line:

ro.config.hw_menu_unlockscreen=true

and change it to:

ro.config.hw_menu_unlockscreen=false

Reboot and it should no longer unlock with menu key. You can also edit it before installing latest aurora rom by editing build.prop with wordpad in windows or gedit in linux.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jy0thish:
Sorry. I couldnt find the above lines inside build.prop.

hello all and just like to say an excellent job everybody is doing......

Running htc desire s-off and rooted with cyanogenmod7 rom trying to get sky go working have tried hiding root etc but to no help and had read that i could install a stock rom

RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.21.110.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127570_signed

and then use restore backup to go between the two when required...

when i tried to install stock rom i get to the waiting for bootloader screen updating the rom on your android phone screen and then after a few minutes i get

error [171] usb connection error

and only option is exit and then phone reboots

questions i need help with are

1. Would installing this rom help me with sky go

2. would i be able to change between roms and keep root?

all help is greatly appreciated
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ambrish7:
Given you are using HTC Desire / Bravo, I would firstly recommend you use Unrevoked to root the phone...

Once the phone is rooted, then switching between ROMS should be straightforward enough presuming you've backed up your data and followed the instructions to the letter.

As for Sky-Go... presuming your ROM is up to date, i.e. 2.3.XXX or 4.XX then it shold work fine. I prefer in such cases to download the software fresh after each install rather than using Titanium Backup just so everything is fresh.

Hope it helps...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vyrlokar:
I'm Spanish, and so is my keyboard dock. However, I often type in English with it. Under HC, it wasn't an issue, I used Asus Keyboard in Spanish, and since word suggestion was disabled while using the keyboard, I lost no functionality. This is important because I need to set the Input Method to Asus Keyboard (Spanish) to get the right key layout for my dock keyboard (It mostly changes where some symbols are, such as the @ symbol, and punctuation, on top of adding dead keys for accented letters)

Come ICS, and everything works exactly the same. However, now ICS includes auto-spellcheck independent of the word suggestions, and uses the language of the keyboard to identify the language of what you typed. This means that while I'm typing, and getting the right keyboard layout via the Asus Keyboard (Spanish), every word gets a wiggly red line underneath (and performance suffers a little). When I change to Asus Keyboard (English), I can use auto-spellcheck, BUT it's cumbersome to type (mainly punctuation and symbols).

If there a way to tell the tablet that it should use the Spanish keyboard layout while using another language for spellcheck? Is there any free or paid Input Method app to help me here? I'm not rooted, but feel free to suggest some root only apps and solutions if it's what it takes.

[Galaxy 3 General] tiolalu:
Hi!

Let me introduce myself a little bit.

I just join this forum because I bought a galaxy 3 recently. It was android 2.1 and I wanted to update to the 2.2 version.

After looking at several manuals I flashed with the last version of samfirmware, but my phone stucked at a deleting data screen. After looking for the solution, I found one could flash again with destiny ROM.

So I tried to download last version and the link is broken, but I could download the 2.0 and now my phone is working :D .

I wanted to thanks the creator (hodostamas) and ask for a link update in the thread, but I have no permissions. I tried to send him a PM with greetings and a link update request, but no permissions.

So, I don't know if the creator will read this or anybody that has permissions could send him a PM and do me a great favour.

"su" not giving root, "cd" works, "mempodroid" still doesn't work...

I don't understand a thing about what's happening with my tablet.

I checked, and I can find "su" in my /system/bin ... I can call it in an "adb shell" --and it opens a new shell, ie. if I "su" three times, then I have to "exit" four times to quit the shell-- but it doesn't gives me root access! Why is that? How is this even possible.

$ ls -l /system/bin/su
-rwxr-xr-x root shell 22364 2012-03-08 22:38 su

I also found that I can use the "cd" command. That's not the normal behavior, the shell should be restricted, isn't it?

So I conclude that part of the rooting worked but that now there's a few problems with my TFP.

But now that mempodroid doesn't work anymore, how can I unroot and re-root properly?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morality:
Hello GT-N7000 forums :)

I am about to receive my Note any day now and researching from the local websites talking about the thing, I have a few questions.

Notice: I live in Finland and have Saunalahti as my carrier, so any first-hand experience would be awesome.

I've read from the carriers forums, that as well as the SGS2 and GNexus, the Note has odd rebooting and reception issues, meaning the phone would

Reboot randomly, as in you'd take it out of your pocket and it asks for a PIN number

Everything about reception seems fine, but you don't receive any text messages or phone calls. If called however, the other end beeps just fine, as if the note was ringing, but it doesn't. Upon reboot, the text messages would arrive.

The carrier had eventually stated (regarding the SGS2), that the "modem software" would be to blame and the update had already been made, though not yet approved by Samsung (or the carrier itself) for an OTA update.

So my question is this: Could this/Would this be fixed by simply flashing a custom ROM or some other radio? Has anyone who has Saunalahti as his/her carrier ran into this problem?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] KrewsialNL:
I tried using cLK this morning in combination with several ROMS, but I cannot seem to get the mobile internet working.

ROMS tested:

- MIUI (official) with Tytung r14 kernel

- Mwakious Nightmare (cLK version)

- Dorimanx ROM

Everything works fine, but it just doesn't seem to fire up the mobile internet connection at all. I know cLK works with PPP, but could it be, that my phone operator doesn't support this somehow? The APN settings are in order and I even deleted the APN and manually added it again. It just doesn't connect.

Is there a reasonable explenation for this? MAGLDR does not give any problem at all.

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] KrewsialNL:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bipinsen:
Lack of response is usually because no one else is seeing the issue you're reporting. Did you also post this issue in the cLK thread?

Have you tried either of the following?

1. Reboot the phone after changing the APN settings.

2. Turn off the radio (go to airplane more) and turn it on again.

Data disconnect with cLK is a well known phenomena (seems to be both hardware and operator dependent).

I had issues when i used radio 2.15 or 2.14 or any other radio..... it was only radio 2.12 which made mobile internet quite usable

So i suggest that u must try radio 2.12 with clk... if it doesn't work...try the latest hyperdroid build... hopefully ur data issues might get solved

If u hav TMOUS HD2, use radio 2.07.50 and for EU HD2 usec2.12.50

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evolution-22-:
So I am currently deployed over seas and I purchased a Nexus for when I come home. Had it shipped to me so that I could use it as soon as I hit the states next month.

My question is, can I root/unlock with Nexus Root Toolkit without any issues. I have turned on the phone messed around with it in wifi mode but I am not putting my 4G SIM in it until I get home to activate it. I just didnt know if the SIM had to be in it while rooting or not or even activated.

I figured I have some time to kill so why not root and mess around with mods (if I am able) so I can get my phone set up the way I like it.

Thanks
