It's not that white takes more power to "render", its that AMOLED screens use the most power to produce the color white. When AMOLED screens create dark (or black) colors, they can actually turn the invidual LED's

off

, using less power. There's no backlight on an AMOLED screen that needs to be lit 100% of the time.

But really, a 720P AMOLED screen will take a lot of power up whenever it's on, whether you're gaming, browsing, or doing email. The screen is just a big power draw.

I know this may seem like a dumb question but here it goes...I have unlocked my Prime with the unlock tool. I am trying to install custom recovery using fastboot but cannot get it to work. I get "error: cannot load (recovery here)" I've tried twrp and cwm with the same results. I'm on .21 (not rooted) and attempting this in osx 10.7.2 Lion.

When I put the tablet into fastboot it says "starting fast boot mode USB download protocol" and just sits there. Is that normal?

Anyone out there complete this process running OSX Lion? I've read that there are issues with this os and adb though I don't comprehend if this applies to me or not...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sardonik:
My Nexus declined to wake up following it's afternoon charge, so I popped it out of the Otterbox to pull the battery. I always give it a quick wipe with a lens cloth when I have it out, just to make sure I don't reassemble it with fingerprints or dust under the protector.

This time, there was a smudge which wouldn't come off. Turns out to be a scratch on the lower right portion of the face, at a point where the protector cover touches the face.

I'm guessing a bit of sand/grit made it's way under the cover and caused the scratch. It's not on the display portion, so not a huge deal but still...unexpected and disappointing given the Otterbox rep.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sucker4pa1n:
I ditched my OB for a Ringke Slim and screen protector because the rubber port cover on the OB jacked up my MicroUSB port. The stock charger wouldn't work without the case on - I had to physically readjust the port to fix it.

Still holding onto the case for when I go hiking though.

Also - the slim is nice and all... but I'm getting cracks from taking it off/putting it on. Still holds snug and protects fine, just thought I'd mention it as it seems neither one is completely "perfect.". I like the slim better though. :)

Interesting, the lookup is via the content resolver and referencing the contact ID. Perhaps it existed with multiple IDs and they were merged when it was made a Google contract.

Well i am new to android custom ROM i was using my official gingerbread 2.3.6, I rooted my samsung galaxy ace and installed Clock work mod Recovery v5.0.2.6

I took the complete back up of my android os using it with reference to some youtube tutorials. Everything went fine and it showed backup sucessfully created like in the video. I even could install a custom ROM and run it on my phone.

When i started to restore from my backup ... during the time when it is restoring system , after a while it shows the error "Error while restoring /system!"

can anyone help me out to get my official copy of gingerbread back....??

Any HELP is appreciated....!!!!

I am having the same error. On Lollipop custom rom, trying to restore Kitkat CWM backup. Then, i get error while restoring /system. So, I flash the same custom kitkat rom, where my backup is based on. Reboot and went through initial rom setup and confirmed it's running Kitkat and same firmware as the CWM backup I was trying to restore. Reboot in Philz CWM and proceed to restoring that back up and i am having the exact same error (error while restoring /system!). I checked on the CWM log, it says "tar: invalid tar magic".

I personally never superwipe if I restore a backup and i have never had problems with restoring to and from ics, gb, tw and aosp versions of both. But as the user above me says, it certainly never hurts
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KillaHurtz:
I think you can create a MD5 error by superwiping before restoring. Just restore the backup, and clear cache & davlik.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
I don't believe that is true as I've had md5 mismatches after trying to restore and was told it is usually from changing the backups file name and or backing up in one recovery and trying to restore from another but in no dev that's just what I was told when I asked about mismatches. But doing a super wipe prior to restoring a backup will not cause md5 mismatch...as I always wipe before a restore :D

and the file is poweron.ogg not wav ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wanewon:
how do I do that? I just watched a youtube video on how to change the boot sound. and I failed..: (

and I downloaded the original S2 boot animation and sound from this thread:

and it's in wave format..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBoxer:
yes most prob wav not used cm9 myself but on most sammy ones it ogg but anyways try this navigate to system/etc using root explorer make sure its set to RW then copy/move/paste file into location then change owner to root/root and set permissions to RW-R-R .

hopefully this will work for you if not trying renaming file to ogg ;)

ahh. I got the problem fixed. I didn't enable root access and system files as writable. now it worked.

but,

the sound doesnt play during the boot animation...-__-

yes but do all the steps i stated even tho you added the file dosent mean its gonna work set the permissions correctly etc and also i mentioned to change file from wav to ogg as a last resort but hmmm i swear that it is ogg for power on but not sure as i find it annoying upon boot lol

You can't just rename the file from wav to ogg. They are different file formats. You need to convert it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wanewon:
so it is really ogg?

the default one that was already in the folder is in wav
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Depends. Apparently it should be wav for GB, ogg for ICS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wanewon:
well I'm using resurrection ICS remix 2.0 if that helps.

and waiting for the root explorer reply.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
So... Given the name of the ROM, surely you can determine if it's GB or ICS... Yes?

You can use any file explorer that gives root access. Root Explorer is just one of them. ES File Explorer is another.

However, I don't think Resurrection Remix supports boot sounds at all, but I'm not positive about that. Someone who uses that ROM will have to answer that.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wanewon:
downloaded a Poweron.ogg as well. and I just figured out the permission management thing and I turned on all the permissions. still no luck. As for the ownership thing that the other poster was talking about. I dont know how to do in es explorer.

anyway, I tried both ogg and wav. maybe you could be right that ICS remix doesnt support boot sounds

1) bluetooth activation - tap the BT headset to make it spring into action

2) voice confirmation - if I tell it to "call Dave at home" it will respond with "Call Dave at home?" and wait for my response.
