Exactly. When i first saw my sgs1 under direct sunlight i thught that was broken. Later i discovered that the lines ias seeing was the circuitry under the screen. You can see iy under direct sunlight when the screen is off.
[Galaxy S III General] Baldilocks:
I don't see any spots or ink marks on my GS2 at all. But seems like a lot of the GS3's are having these spots.

Some have exchanged their phones for those with a lot less of of those markings.

It's only there when the screen is on, but it's actually visible in daylight now I know it's there.

I read somewhere that this is a residual issue caused by the bonding glue they use t to attach the glass, they should fade as the glue dries, but keep any eye on it and nuke 'em if it doesn't!
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
Yeh galaxy nexus has a similar thing its the amoled display some of the pixals are not turning fully of, I think that was the conclusion .

But only noticeable in very dark room with the screen black and when your eyes adjust. Could be wrong without a pic I can't say.
[Galaxy S III General] LadFromWales85:
I think its an inherent flaw with AMOLED panels. It looks like patches of the screen do not go as dark as the rest of the screen.

Some screens are brighter than others in general though, among the same phone. This Nexus was brighter than another one I had at the same time, at both lowest and highest settings, and had less black dots on black screen, presumably because the screen was brighter overall.

Doesn't mean to say I won't check for the problem before I purchase though ;)
[Galaxy S III General] lostsoul:
Well I exchanged it for a new one.

This one is flawless :D

I'm glad I bought it in a physical store now vs online!
[Galaxy S III General] Matt190191:
Yep I have the exact same thing with my SIII but not as bad as yours. What did you do about your SIII? Did you return it? I notice it mostly on a black background whilst watching films/videos mine isn't really that noticeable on my SIII but still pretty annoying.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toby7:
Hi,

I recently bought a Nokia Lumia 710. Runs very smooth, but I'm pissed because it lacks basic stuff like an eq (WTF???)

As I understand, a software update could at least improve the sound qual a little, so I'm checking navifirm and don't understand something :

I currently have this firmware on my phone :

View attachment 1100062

I'm noticing it's the only one in navifirm for my country, so it has to be the one on my phone. It is a v1 firmware.

In Zune it says that it is the latest firmware for my phone.

But in navifirm there are newer updates for various countries.

In navifirm this shows up for my country code :

View attachment 1100063

It is a newer version apparently available, but it is a v2 firmware.

Can I just go on and flash this for my phone with NCS ? The product codes seem to match but one is v1, the other v2.

I know that this still isn't available through Zune because of my operator, cause they are responsible for pushing it, and I rather not wait for them to get off their lazy butts.

And should I want to debrand, what are the actual downsides/upsides, cause that still isn't quite clear to me. Is it easy to do and would it harm the phone if done right ?

Thanx for anythone helping me out here, this is my first "smart"phone, allhough I don't find a lot of actual "smart" in the phone. What I do find is a lot of lacks and issues. But that aside, it would at least be something if I could get the latest possible updates as soon as possible...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toby7:
FaGrop teacher,

No-one can point me in the right direction ? When will those updates in navifirm pushed officially ? Which one do I choose ? I really wanna learn some of this stuff, and I've been reading lot about WP7 and the issues and FW devellopment and I know this phone is not fully unlocked yet, for now. I'm doing fair part of research, but it's thinly documented so I'm having a hard time trusting the flashing process and what it would change or harm. Any info or help or guidence would be very much welcomed.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toby7:
double post, my bad...please delete this post
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toby7:
Thnx for the recommendation, but I just bought this 710, and I'm not planning to buy another for now.

Besides, the only annoying thing for me is the lack of an EQ for music, and the 900 doesn't have that either. If I would buy another it wouldn't be a windows phone.

I checked again, and the label behind the battery says my product code is 059N1Q9 - Netherlands. (RM-803)

1600.3030.8773.12120 is available for that product code, which has the long awaited tethering feature, but the FW I have now is V1, and this one is V2.

So I only need to know 3 things :

- what does the V1 or V2 mean, and do they have to match ?

- is 1600.3030.8773.12120 ok to flash if it is the same product code as it says on my phone ?

- are there disadvantages to flashing manually, or should I wait to have it pushed through Zune ?

thanx again. please help me out here. I've asked this on a couple of forums, but I can't get a decent answer anywhere.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toby7:
Really, no-one ?

Is it because I am new here ? I'm fairly possitive that most ppl here easily know this stuff without giving it a thought (?)

Maybe I forgot to mention that I don't no the slightest thing about mobile devellopment, or whatever's the right term for it.

I did once flash a Nokia with a custom FW, it was a Symbian device. So I can manage a flash, and have been reading about the subject. But still I don't really know about the insides and can't find a clear example of this.

The rules mention that one should try to help others too, but really, I wouldn't know how.

So my appologies for the low amount of posts.

The thing is, I'm very low on budget, personal causes, and I'd hate to brick the device cause I happened to flash the wrong update. I really need to be sure first.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bungee4CE:
To be honest switching the firmware isn't as simple on the Nokia Lumia (WP7) devices as it is with Nokia Symbian devices. As a result keeping an eye on Navifirm is not as usefull when it comes to Lumia devices.

Sorry to say that with the WP7 devices the FW releases have been controlled somewhat by Microsoft providing a graduated release accross the world rather than the slightly quicker global releases provided by Nokia for Symbian devices.

Must admit the lack of an EQ and multiple volume controls has been a pet hate for me with my Nokia Lumia 800, but I'm just hoping that these issues are rectified as Nokia gain more input into WP OS developement, especially with WP8.

There has been a ful interop unlock FW hack released which you could try if you are prepared to take the risk. You could check out the windowsphonehacker website for further info.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toby7:
Yes, but apparently the update IS available through Navifirm, so that's not the issue. I just need to know if it is the right one. Also, I've read that actually for Lumia devices, flashing and even debranding is a peace of cake, and much easier then a symbian device ?

Anyway, after a week of asking questions and reading, I'm still uncertain if the update I mentioned in OP is the right one or not...thought it was a fairly straight forward question, but apparently it is not.

I'll check that website you mention.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisKringel:
This is not an update, it is the complete new Firmware. You can of course update your phone with these files, but they are intended for use in production and Care Points only. You don't necessarily find every update on these servers. For instance the 12072 update did appear on NaviFirm a few weeks after it was released through MS. At the moment I'd suggest that you wait for the official rollout of Mango Refresh as it should be coming in the next few days.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toby7:
I see. So what we see in Navifirm isn't supposed to be used directly by us? So are those firmwares different from what we get offically ? It's just that who knows when the update comes offically. Officially I'm still on 11502 with no newer updates than that. But apparently they're allready 4updates beyond that with tethering fixed. It could be weeks or even months before my carrier pushes a new update and I really don't wanna wait that long ? I thought by using Navifirm I'd get the same updates but faster?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrdatrackstar:
If it helps, I am using the Proximus ROM that is the UK 8773.98 that includes tethering and everything. It works just fine with my phone (US Tmobile Lumia 710 unlocked and using an ATT sum card through Straight Talk).

To know which one to use, I just clicked on whichever variant had the Tmobile ROM in it, which I believe it was 809. Just look for whichever 710 version has the stock firmware of your phone, and that's the one I would go with...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pLUSpISTOL:
Go to the Lumia 800 Dev section and you'll find fully unlocked 710 ROMs ready to flash, follow instructions though, they will probably have the latest firmware included!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allesgeheim:
Hello Toby7,

I am confrontaded with the same questions like you.

Don't worry about V1 or V2. It has nothing to do with the phone. It is the number of the firmware release. The edition for Proximus exists since a long time, what I mentioned here:

"To prevent spam on the XDA forums, ALL new users prevented from posting outside links in their messages. After approximately 10 posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thank you for understanding"

Solution: Search for "Inoffizielles Firmware-Update auf Nokia Lumia 710" in Google

If you update your phone by Zune, you must only compare the ProductCode. If you flash with other tools, it doen't matter which ProductCode you have. But don't forget, only if you update by Zune, all settings and apps will stay. With other methods, your whole phone will be deleted. That is the reason why I am still waiting until Zune will update my phone with 1600.3030.8773.12120 (V3 in Austria) or even 1600.3030.8773.12121 (V4 in Austria).

I can't still say when the releases will be official, but you can follow this question in my posting:

"To prevent spam on the XDA forums, ALL new users prevented from posting outside links in their messages. After approximately 10 posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thank you for understanding"

Solution: Search for "[Lumia 710] When will the newest update be official?" in Google

Best regards

[HTC Amaze 4G] f22b1:
My Amaze 4G's USB port is semi-dead. It only charges the battery, but won't connect to PC. PC keeps saying "USB device not recognized." Tried different machines with Win7 or WinXP and different cables, but no luck.

I OTA upgraded to Telus ICS 4.0.3 and USB port is still dead. I have not unlock the bootloader yet.

I tried to get Telus to warranty the phone, but was refused as the phone is 2nd hand.

Any suggestion how to get 1) USB fixed and/or 2) root without USB?

Thanks!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Call htc, you can send it to them to have it repaired via warranty once it's under a year old, which it is. All for free, though you'll have to get a backup device for a week or two.
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
Did you install the drivers in the first place...?
[HTC Amaze 4G] f22b1:
I did install the HTCSync software on all the machines before plugging in my phone..
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Try using Hasoon's tool, install the drivers from the tool and see what happens?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Keylogger_0:
Actually, I had the same problem last night, and what I'd recommend you to try is to download a small program called usbdeview

it should be from nirsoft and then load that up (as an administrator) , look for all HTC/android listings and then uninstall all of them

restart your computer, and then download the latest HTC sync drivers and install it.

But if that doesn't work, I believe that would lean over to be a hardware issue.

Hi, I have enabled Airplane mode and WiFi. However, I still cannot use WiFi at home. In particular, the device keeps scanning for network connection. After I chose my home network, it stayed there for about a second "remembered". Then, when the device started scanning again, my home network connection was disabled. Since I cannot connect to the network for more than a second, I cannot use WiFi yet. Is there something wrong with my new device? Please help.

P.S. For some reason, Mobile Network, Bluetooth Settings and Call are dimmed. I don't use 3G.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Darius:
You need to turn off airplane mode, having it on blocks all network activity.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] fabu09:
Actually not true, I can still connect to wifi when on airplane mode. If your in an airplane and there is wifi than this helps switching the phone to airplane mode than just using the provided wifi.

Anyways about the wifi, looks like it could be your modem settings if you changed them recently, if you didn't change them, forget your network on your phone and re add your network which will refresh your modem's settings. After this it should connect fine
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] toza:
Ok, please bare with me and I will try to explain this as short as possible.

------- Introduction --------------------------------------------------------

This is not the full USB mass storage mode concept. It's just an idea to upgrade the current process of making WP7 visible as USB storage device in Windows.

As a base of my thaught, I used the very well known registry edit to make WP7 visible in Win.

More here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1069568

------- The Concept --------------------------------------------------------

The next thing i thaught was: "What if there was an app for WP7 that could edit those registry values upon connecting to the PC?"

I guess it would have to act as some sort of "on device driver" that intercepts Zune drivers from starting Zune and syncing process?

Ofcourse, if this was to be acomplished, you still wouldn't be able to transfer music or pictures from PC-Zune on to WP-Zune, but you would be able to use your device on any PC (regardless of Zune being installed or not) as a USB flash drive.

------- How it works? --------------------------------------------------------

1. An "app" that will contain registry values to be edited on PC is deployed on WP

2. Upon connection, app will intercept Zune from starting and add those values to the PC

3. PC establishes basic USB connection with WP

I understand that there are drivers that Zune installs so it could Sync up and reckognize WP, but would it be possible to transfer those drivers too on the device so the "app" would contain everything it needs to establish only Basic USB connection?

------- Non-related to concept --------------------------------------------------------

I hope you understood me... If you ask me, this sounds like a space invadors concept :D I am not a programmer (at least not in this field of programming), so don't ask me for technical explanations please.

I use the opportunity to once more give thumbs up for all of the devs who are working on magical things to make WP7 even more wonderful experience! Thumbs up and thanks for all the efforts!!!:)

Feel free to comment and give your ideas! ;)

Who knows, maybe we'll get to something here...

Cheers!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] 坏天使:
This is a great work.I try make it ,but I failed.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
The so-called "USB Mass Storage" hack for WP7 (or any other Zune device) is... misleading. It's just exposing the MTPZ (Media Transfer Protocol, Zune) device within Windows Explorer. You still need Zune (normal MTP only requires Windows Media Player, but MTPZ requires Zune and that's what WP7 uses). You also can't access the phone as an actual UMS device; if you could, you could browse its real filesystem, rather than the virtualized media folders (and nothing else).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] toza:
I see... Then the whole concept goes down the toilette:D

Well, at least I gave it a try:rolleyes:

Thanks for the info GoodDayToDie!;)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
The idea of automatically enabling the switch is still valid, don't get me wrong. It's just that it won't work on a computer without the required drivers (that Zune installs) and it won't work as an actual UMS device (for example, you can't mount it at a drive letter).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] toza:
No no, please, I don't feel offended in any kind of way;)

You have extremely valid arguments (and of course the knowledge!) and I'm not trying to confront you in any way. Just giving suggestions!:)

As for the driver, I thought there might be a way to get it on the WP and upon connection the PC installs drivers from the WP itself and not from the Internet...:rolleyes:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Useless guy:
Why did you post it there?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] toza:

Flashed AOKP build 37 with fluxi xx and the newest i777 UCLD4 modem (in New York btw) and after that when I try to place a call sometimes I don't even hear a ring or during a conversation the call would suddenly be dropped. Is it due to the modem not being the right fit for my location? If so can anyone recommend the best modem for the New York metro area?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] clay101eve:
There is a thread that had a link to a Google Map that might help you out. Search "Modem" in the search bar...

Also, from my understanding (please correct if wrong, I'm still learning), the wrong modem will give you similar issues as you are experiencing, while the right modem will have you satisfied should there not be another issue.

If you simply flashed the new modem and immediately saw issues, you may start by flashing to the modem you had previously to see how that affects the call quality. Also, I'm not sure if you need to do a wipe/reset after flashing modems or if that's reserved for kernels and roms...

[EDIT] Maybe include the method used to flash the modem. Might have made a simple error somewhere that these guys can spot.
