Yup. It happens. The pixel inactivity seems to be the culprit.

Happened on my nexus s sporting an amoled display and I figured it was bound to happen to the gs2. And of course, it has.

Its one of those things you don't really notice unless youre looking for it, though. So just don't think about it and enjoy the phone. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
If he's anything like me, once its there that's all hell see, like a scratch on the screen or a bad ding on the phone. Once I noticed the crooked screen on my evo3d, it drove me nuts. Actually I just checked and I also have a slight discoloration along the top of the screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sewhuy:
Happened to the status bar of my og epic.

Since I've had my et4g, I have made sure to go full screen mode whenever possible (go launcher settings). So far haven't noticed any burn in.

This is also the reason why I still prefer GB over ics's designated onscreen buttons(maybe I'm just paranoid). Not to mention, more screen estate for viewing pleasure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
OLED technology from day 1 was a burn in technology. Unlike LCD's (and LED-LCD's, LED TV's are used in billboards not your house) with a black light shining through colored pixels which are darkened by liquid crystal which are subject to total backlight failure, age. The component of OLED has a lifespan on a per pixel basis.

Blues over all the various OLED tech's have the shortest lifespan. My laptop has an OLED display on it for information its a Teal color and its rather toasty :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] studdmufin:
Yeah it's real simple to see if you want into any store with some smartphones on display that use OLED... those screens are destroyed most of the time
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Cant you put up a pure white image fullscreen for extended time period to reduce the effects of image burn, or does this only work on other types of screens?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
On OLED you actually want to display an inverse image of whatever is burned in. You need to burn the rest of the pixels to match the current state. White would probably still have a decent effect but I am not 100% certain. I have a really cruddy LCD that I have to do that for its really weird.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nzaw4:
I have that problem now, and i wonder if it is covered by warranty...

Unequal pixel degradation. Lol

This happened really badly on my first epic 4g. They gave me a new on. For it too. Here is the thread where it was discussed, as well as pictures.

Happened to me. I can see the outline of my keyboard after I send a message and the keyboard goes down. It kinda makes me sad but that's normal I guess. :(

TEP

If you have TEP, this is a defect covered by TEP. Therefore you should be able to walk in to a repair shop and show it to a manager. Now I am afraid it is going to do it to me. Somehow, as I use the official rom, the auto brightness setting begins to get set so low that I cant read it. So I would have to go manually set it all the way up and then turn on the automatic brightness.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
If you don't leave the screen on for unnecessary periods of time showing one thing you will be better off. I don't know if the guy with the dock or the dock itself has the screen not turning off. But having it display a static menu especially on high brightness for very long periods of time will destroy it quick.

Watching video for example is very random on wear and would not show up like a menu. Would average in wear like any other use.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony67:
I downloaded this and it works. Touch your screen to change the colors. Fortunately, my screen is good to go.

Screen Test
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] austin420:
The samsung dock app didn't let the screen turn off while it was docked.

I'm not sure if that is still going on with it, but I switched to alarn clock plus app. It dims and then moves around the clock a little bit every few minutes to avoid having the image in the same place causing burn in.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtblair24:
I just noticed this today on mine. I am too lazy to go in and try to get a sprint guy to see what I see and get a replacement. Kind of alarming though because my phone is only 6 months old...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
My girlfriends old fascinate had this issue. Was pretty annoying but my epic touch seems fine for now. I heard not turning up the brightness real high helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LxMxFxD:
My epic 4g touch also has image burn. Has anyone had success getting a replacement without TEP from sprint? I clearly will have trouble selling this thing when the time comes if it has serious image burn.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] random45:
Can you take a picture for us to see?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] emalave32:
I would just backup everything, go to stock, and walk into a sprint store.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
If you use your phone its pretty much inevitable. You might be able to get a replacement, however, its the screen. So if you don't want it to happen on a new device I suggest not using it at all. :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] broad_st_bully:
Ok so the war between me & this damn Sprint Galaxy Nexus continues...

I've been trying to get this update to fully install with no luck...

last night after 6 hours of rumbling the device, flashing wrong files, ending up with Verizon/no sim card/no service then FINALLY getting it fixed and back to stock so I can install the update and I just tried and guess what...

still no luck!!!

this god-forsaken update downloads then turns the device off then the screen with the little android with the blue thing spinning in his belly starts up for about 10 seconds then I get:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

has anyone else gotten the same error when attempting to install the update?

I'm using ClockworkMod 5.8.3.1 and the build is IMM76D.L700FC12

can I download the OTA Update & push it through using the Nexus Toolkit?

any/all help is appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Bro your in need of some serious help :) there is a way to flash to stock FD02 which is the latest stock build.... give me a sec to find the how to. Follow that then reflash the radios and then root again.

I'm sure its through Odin so make sure you have a good thick cable not the stock one. Like a blackberry one is one I always suggest.

Here you can follow this video : How to Unroot/Unbrick Galaxy Nexus

Once thats done go ahead and unlock the bootloader and all that deal. Root it, then reflash those fixed radios. Then you should be good to go ;).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] broad_st_bully:
I got the FD02 radio images...is that all the damn update is??

if so I'll just flash them...

Hello there,

Yesterday I've noticed that my tts service is not working.I have been testing something through androidlost app, and when I sent a command to my phone to speak, it didn't work.

I don't even have Voice input/output option when I go to settings.

So I was wondering how can I re-install the default tts service, which comes with every android phone?

ROM

Problem might be with your stock ROM.

What you can do is to switch ROM, or kernel. Either that or try backing up everything and then reformat your phone.

If people have been wondering...

I got a 3800mah sedio extended battery like a month ago and so far its been better then standard, when i got home i had about 20% more battery then before.

I thought i wiped my battery stats with app but now it turns out it didnt, i wiped it using CMW and i can already see the improvment.

Normally when I would use it for about 30 minutes moderate usage i would be down to about 94%... Now i only go down to aboit 97-98% :D

To the OP, I dont think it would actually improve battery life. When I had a Motorola I had this issue all the time. When I would get to 1% it would sit there for hours. I would wipe batter stats and it would be more accurate. Giving you the illusion that its better.

Holy mother.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Three333:
When I started out changing ROMs a few months ago, I used to wipe the battery stats and do the full charge/full drain thing. I've since stopped and can't say that I notice any change in how quickly the initial drain goes back to normal (or even that there is a an "initial" and a "normal").

That all said, if there is, in fact, truth to the idea that the battery drain indicator just needs a while to become accurate on a new ROM, it seems entirely likely that wiping stats and doing a full charge/full drain cycle is really only useful because of the full drain part of it providing the ROM time to calibrate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dante2512:
I believe it has more to do with the physical battery getting juiced properly when you first get your phone. After that a mod shouldn't need to reflex the battery, but wiping the stats would give you a more accurate percent if it seems off.

[HTC Sensation] AJ205:
ok, im running on latest insertcoin 5.5.0 with bricked kernel 1.1 and decided to go for stock kernel from stock zip rom. i extracted the "boot.img" from the rom.zip and flashed it with adb. rebooted and got a wifi error; wifi is trying to switch on but there is nothing to switch... after researching xda, i found a solution (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1429787) that led me to the final solution which is to extract the original files from the zip rom located in <system/lib/modules> and paste them in the same location on the mounted system files on phone using a root explorer ("es file explorer"). the files were "bcm4329.ko" and "kineto_gan.ko". the instance i pasted the files wifi came on.

the thing i dont understand is why when i flashed bricked kernel 1.1 from recovery it didnt stick? i wiped cach, dalvik, fixed permissions :confused:... whatever... only one problem contacts pics in stock msg app gone missing... :(
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
The drivers are compiled from source to match the kernel during it's compilation. All the kernels on here are flashed from recovery and include the matching drivers whether it be through Aroma installer or regular 4ext flash.

If you extract the bricked kernel zip file you'll see that the drivers are in there. He also released a flashable version of the stock kernel/drivers if you search the development section...

[NFC Hacking] MikeCriggs:
NFC (to my understanding) is built into the battery and delivers information through connections. I've seen posts on a very well-known competitor forum (which will remain nameless to abide by forum rules) where people have talked about mods to do so. I will not post a link to another forum post on XDA. Search Google and see for yourself. I have no reason to fabricate something like this. It is possible that I may be mistaken but I distinctly remember it. Unless it was a giant troll, which I doubt, you will find several posts about possible NFC. I will be removing my earlier posts in this thread to avoid confusion.
[NFC Hacking] Meep70:
There is a company that has developed a microSD card that would add NFC capability to existing devices that do not already have it. I am a bit wary of that approach, myself.

As for NFC existing in te battery, No. The antenna for NFC on some phones is in the battery. I question the merits of this design, unless by puting it in the battery, it can be nearer to the back of the phone.
