[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MR.change:
Any of you guys know if ICS Stunner fix the color banding or black crush issues?

I'm fairly new to the G-Note (previous SII owner) , and really annoyed by the colour rendering issues on this device.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Techimplant:
Don't get me started about the colors of S2..they are crap..check out the comparisons on YouTube.. I have seen it with my eyes though..the colors on s2 are really dark n over saturated..Note is far more superior..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MR.change:
As I'm sure you know, not all	SAMOLEDs are created equal, most SIIs I've seen are dark and with a blue tint to them, but mine was very good actually ,OK so it was a bit over saturated (easily fixable via movie mode) , but it had no black crush issue , and all images displayed properly.

The note's display is fine but it's like having a grey filter over it, cause the gamma is just wrong, and anything with several shades of grey is non watchable and a mess.

Truth is ,I love the note and would never go back to normal phones again, but I just wish this little inconvenience could be solved.

P.s: I couldn't help but notice that you didn't answer my question , did ICS solve the black crush issue (that's what it's called right?)

Cause i really need to use the SMemo all the time.

Love that app.

Don't like much ICS base on Samsung, becoz of FCs
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Goodm7sn:
I wanted ICS, so i tried :

-Midnote 3.2

-Alba's v2

-ICS stunner 4.5

and all had a different type of bugs/missing features that were deal breakers for my daily use...

in the end , i restored my Checkrom v6 nandroid backup :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MR.change:
Nice collection of Roms mate.

Could you please answer my question

Did you have any color banding and/or black clipping issues?

And if yes ,then did any of these Roms fix it for you?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Goodm7sn:
to be honest , i didnt pay attention to coloring/banding issues at all with those roms (still i didnt notice any serious issue with the screen) , was mainly focused on how beautiful and smooth ICS is and trying to figure some workaround for the bugs there..

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mikereidis:
Great thread, thanks !

I don't have a Note (yet) but I'm looking for FM support. The FM column in the spreadsheet seems to have errors.

AFAICT, alba is the only ICS ROM that currently supports FM.

If I'm mistaken, please let me know.

Thanks !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] olympicchicken:
Midnote does also support FM. I use it (and also found it marked as working in the spreadsheet).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dobygot:
I tried alba v2, and stunner 4.3 and ended up back on checkrom 6 as well.

Bugs and missing features, and believe it or not, ICS felt less responsive as gingerbread. It's smoother, but not as responsive. I'll wait for a rom without bugs, and at least matches the features I have on TW/GB/checkrom.

Guess how many emails i recieved after the post: over 100 people sent me a Editor request. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MR.change:
That's the main reason that has stopped me from flashing custom ROMs so far (be it on my S2 or the note).

Once i start fiddling with custom ROMs I would never stop flashing , tweaking, and then flashing some more lol

Or at least that was the case back when I was a symbian user.

But if I can find a room that stop this banding/clipping/incorrect gamma issue , then I would happily flash it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ajamils:
Some of the entries do not make sense. For example it says that Netflix works on Stunner, which is not true. I am on Stunner 4.5 and Netflix does not work. There is only sound and no video.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mikereidis:
Thanks ! I'll look at Midnote too.

The April 13 version of Spirit may work on other Note ROMs now, with the new "Galaxy S2 Test" Audio->Method.

I used the APIs I found in the alba ROM FM app and it's reported working on Galaxy S2s w/ CM9, so.... :D

I think I may buy a Note now, for further testing, and just because it's an awesome device. Too bad I can't get an International version with FM locally.

Hard to decide. First of all i used imilkas. Was okay but then I discovered the stunner. Was my favorite for several weeks. Now I'm using the actual Alba ics and that thing is the real and only beast. Optically I'm missing the ics style from stunner. But haptically Alba's from is the best imho.

Great ! Thank you. :D

I've ordered my Note from Newegg and I expect it will be the jewel among my 10 test phones.

IMO, the Samsung FM app is the best of the OEM FM apps out there, (Although I've never tried Sony's) and the one on the Note is probably the best implementation. So I understand.

Spirit can be configured to not use root, if an OEM API such as Samsung's is available, or in some other circumstances, but on many devices it's needed for one reason or another. Silly things like /dev/fmradio being restricted.

Hi there....

I´m currently using ICS Stunner v.5 coming from the repack and then 4.5 and then 5.0

everything works as promissed and does a pretty nifty job on all aspects and the customization of this rom is simply lovely,...... although i dont know if its because im a noob and i dont know how to enable them or make them work so this is where i need a little bit of help!!!!!!

1st - I dont know how to enable the MTP connection of the previous GB rom i need this since my security policies on my work computer are being override by this type of connection.

2nd - I dont know how to make the Wifi direct option work correctly it does appear to me on the menu but doesnt bring anything new or work or is being recognized by any other phone whith this capability.

3rd - The Spen is not working (not the pen but the built in features that it previously had.) i know that this is not supported by the rom but maybe the Gurus or android gods in this forum might be able to help me with any solution.

4th - this is the most important thing that i have noticed.... the USB transfer rate is awfully slow from what it used to be with or without the USB debbuging option the most that i can get with big medium or small file sizes is nothing more than 2.5 Mbps if lucky and previously i was achieving arround 8 - 10 Mbps

if you have a solution or Idea or want to help me please share your thoughts or send me a PM

thanks a lot!!!!!!

I think the AOSP ICS ROMs removes the point of having a Note. But I have to give it to the devs. They work very well. Alba is my choise atm though.

It reminds me of when I got my HTC Sensation and everyone wanted to put cm7 on it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] qazzi76:
One part is wrong.

Midnote 3.2 doesn't have tablet support as far as I know as it's based on Touchwiz ROM.

Also can you possibly add bluetooth support to that matrix?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] underlines:
Possible :) As this is completely crowd-sourced, the yes/no is generated by all the voters of the poll for a particular ROM. Of course this means, if more than 50% of the people are voting a bug wrong, then it gets stated wrong in the matrix.

I will add your request, if you specify what exactly you mean by Bluetooth support? Just pairing, or advanced Bluetooth functions like modem/headset, or even a particular BT stack like 2.0 or 3.0.

Thanks so far for your feedback.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thintin:
Hi.

I got my prime a few days ago and would like it rooted so that I can use more of my favourite apps.

I've read lots of posts on the topic but they are written by members who have been following the development of unlocking/rooting methods and they reference too many conditions/methods/techniques that I'm not sure about because I'm a noob to the prime and ICS scene.

I am aware that I can unlock my prime's bootloader but I had my fingers burned doing this with my Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc; it left me unable to use OTA updates and I could have rooted without it (which was all I wanted).

So, can I root my Prime without unlocking the bootloader?

And just to complicate things a little more I'm using ICS 9.4.2.21...

If there is already a detailed guide to this then my apologies, I couldn't find it so please point me that way. If there isn't one maybe someone would be kind enough to fill me in on the basics and bring me up to speed on the current state of play?

Thanks for any help in advance :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] robertg9:
Yes, you are correct. Unlocking the Prime WOULD VOID THE WARRENTY, and you would also not be able to use the OTA updates.

Rooting WILL BE possible (hopefully). We used to be able to root the older versions, but ASUS "plugged" the exploit. We have to wait till they find a new exploit and then we will be able to root the prime....If it works like the earlier mods, you will need to use Voodo Rootkeeper after rooting, because the next update will probably get rid of the root and will need that app to re-establlish the root.

You will be able to use Ota updates after rooting, as long as you don't change any of the "delivered" files...If you change some, you will need to restore the originals before updating.....or the update will fail.

Bob
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moonbloom:
Yes. It is possible to root a Prime without unlocking it's bootloader, if it's running any version other than the .21 (The one you have).

I rooted my Prime when I got it (Honeycomb came preinstalled), and now I'm running ICS .21 version, bootloader locked and I'm rooted.

But sadly, for your situation, there isn't any way to achieve root without unlocking the bootloader.

If you unlock your bootloader, you can't take OTA's (As far as I've heard, as it results in hardbricks and failures).

If you want to have root at the moment, you will have to unlock your bootloader using ASUS's official tool, and then flash CWM, and flash a ROM that is pre-rooted, which will then also give you root.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thintin:
Bugger! But thanks guys, I guess I'll just have to be patient. One of the main reasons I root is to use ad blocking apps. Does anyone know of an add blocker that doesn't need root access?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TehH4rRy:
As root blocking apps access the hosts file within the root directory it's nigh impossible to block ads without access, For website ad blocking you can use chrome or firefox addons

This probably does not seem like a big deal but it's driving me nuts.

The HTC agenda/calendar widget causes sense to crash every time it loads.

Yes, I have tried the android one and Pure Calendar Widgets etc but they are not the same.

I was going to try digging the HTC Calendar widget out of the 1.20 Stock ROM to see if it will install. Anyone know if that's likely ?

I don;t want to be a whiner but I'm kinda mad some of the crap HTC pull. In this latest release I've lost the two widgets I used most, the news widget and the agenda widget :(
[HTC One X] mahesh_9j:
you are right...I am also facing the same BUG, sense is rebooting one we select the calander/agenda widget....

Regards,
[HTC One X] WhiteHartMart:
Isn't that only if you have your Facebook calendar syncing before adding the widget though? Possibly because it's having to add too many events?

Agenda widget working fine here with two calendars syncing - plus you can add the FB calendar once the widget is on screen.
[HTC One X] ozym:
No. I am only showing 1 calendar in the agenda widget and it's not the facebook one. It's my exchange calendar.

The bug seems to be linked to the number of appointments you have.

Mine worked fine for the first few days and then this morning started crashing. This is because now that the easter holidays are almost over my work diary for next week is really full, hence lots of appointments etc.

If I change the widget to only show the facebook calendar or only show tasks etc it works fine.
[HTC One X] ozym:
Damn. That does not seem to be working.

I;'ve got the system image out of the rom but I can't extract it using unyaffs.

Any pointers from any of you android chef genuises ?

Maybe someone could just extract and post the agenda widget apk and I will test ?

Cheers.
[HTC One X] JoOoSs:
I had the same problem once. I have 2 calendars synced + facebook.

I removed the widget and re-add it and it's working.

I saw an other bug : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1590772
[HTC One X] ozym:
Fix Found (Sort of...)

I have found a fix for this.

If I tell the widget to "Show All Calendars" it's fine.

If i tell it to only show one, even if that's the only calendar with any events in it, it causes Sense to crash.

Guess I'll just tell it to show all calendars ;)
[HTC One X] WhiteHartMart:
Strange - show all causes mine to crash as it then includes Facebook.

If I just use my work exchange and Google calendars it works fine and I'd imagine there's more than 20 entries in those?
[HTC One X] iamholam:
I am using the standard Android widget (the 2x3 one) and it annoyingly doesn't seem to update. When I add items to my calendar they do not show up and sometimes the widget shows a day behind the actual date.

There also seems to be no refresh button for this widget. Is there a way to do that and does anyone else have this problem?
[HTC One X] ozym:
Ahhhhh ! Fixed in the 1.28 OTA update. Sweet, sweet bugfix :)

hey let them completely discharge 3 times ( after it dies , wait about 5 minutes and power on the phone again let it power off)

don't let the battery charging over night . about a 3 hr and 30 mins to 4 hr will do.

i have a 1500 mA battery . it last me about a 1 with heavy use .( temple run , music , pandora , gps , text , photos , and reading )
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Never try to let you batteries run completely dead. This will shorten the life of Li-Ion batteries. And feel free to let your batteries charge over night. When the battery gets charged fully the charging will stop or slow as needed. They will not overcharge. The charging systems of phones have their own regulation. Not sure where previous poster got his info. Guess his phone still uses NiCads. ;)

Yet to see an extended battery for The Inspire with the custom cover. There is a battery pack that attaches to the back of the phone but I can't remember the make. There was big talk when they were released but I hear little about them now.

( maybe is the app)

with a 3 hour charge , i get about a day use out of the cell phone . letting the battery died the first three time you put it in the phone , i was told by th rep of the company that sold me the item , like i said before i get pretty good battery life , even with heavy use , now that temple run is in android . even more fun ..

When i saw this for the first time i was like WTF its 80 degrees outside... then i changed batteries again and it worked... obviously something wrong in the battery.

It i probably worth spending a little more money on the battery to get better quality product.
