I think his reaction is your best answer. ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
I Think where the problem lies when Supercurio said i have started to work on the galaxy note color render issues... People automatically assumed that there is a fix coming ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
I guess so.....any ideas if any other Dev is interested on this issue..... or do you think we can convince another Dev to help?

---------- Post added at 09:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

maybe you are right but still nobody assumed there is a fix:) but rather how far he has gone
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] QAM:
Hola

Not to divert attention away from the main topic but have any of you tested the Screen Adjuster app (developed by NETMAN) from the play store? It does a decent job of reducing (some say fixing) the black crush issues BUT at the expense of reducing contrast... meaning blacks ain't as black as before.

I enable the Screen Adjuster app when watching videos and turn it off when not needed.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] martcerv:
I dont think its an easy fix and needs a dev that specializes in this area, if it was a very simple fix Samsung would have done it themselves. They are still our best hope as I'm sure it will take a lot more work then most one man dev teams are willing to put in, we don't know how much sc put into it but I'm sure the amount of work needed far outweighs any reward a dev would get for it.

To top it off sc could put in weeks or months of work into it and overnight a new Samsung rom could fix the issue or break his fix. This is best left to Samsung or someone that can work directly with Samsung, in reality if they have sold 7 million plus notes it wouldn't take to much off their profits to reinvest some of that back into fixing these software related screen bugs.

They could do it in house or pay sc a decent sum if he can provide a solution with some help from them.

The way people were *****ing was no surprise sc closed that thread, he may or may not still be working on a fix but the thread was rather pointless anyway until a proper app is released. Sc can't give daily updates and that would just take away from development time so getting a dev to respond to an eta is doing nothing more then delay is arrival.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Latoc:
Nobody asked for a eta.

People wanted to know if he was still on the project or not. BIG difference.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
to say the truth it's sad that our Gnote has this screen issue for as long as it was released and still up to this day no single fix for it..... if it where iphone having this problem,it could have become a history by now....... Samsung and our Devs should have a solution ASAP.....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
I checked the Samsung developers forum and still people with this problem are not really disturbing Samsung..... please could all of you go there

NOW

and lay your complains:mad:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] joe2316:
There was an app for the Gnote, which he pulled for no good reason. Why not just keep that there? Something is better than nothing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
wow that is bad....:eek:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] INeedHelp?:
id pay 10$ also.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
Just head to Samsung Developer's page and lodge your complain,maybe if we keep disturbing them they will do something about it:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] carbonassassin:
This is of no offence to supercrucio (I admire his work) but the way he handled that thread was terrible. All people where are asking about was if he was still working on it it (Which was a reasonable request) and he got all pissy and closed the thread. I understand that maybe he was busy but it could of been handled in a much better and polite way
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
No offence i tried that app its garbage i mean i prefer the dodgy black over foggy contrast lol... Best thing is get the highest possible resolution video to view on your Note.. Also the thing i dont understand is Samsung ship there Galaxy Note with some preloaded videos, the black levels on the preloaded videos is PERFECT why is that ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] carbonassassin:
I reckon its to do with how the video is encoded, I might have a look and see if encoding the video to the same thing makes a difference

Sent from my Galaxy Note running LiquidSmooth
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sibere:
Guys you must realise something.

SC has now moved to the SGS III. All his tweets are about this phone. There is probably much more things to do and more money to make with this flagship phone than the Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DaBountyHunter:
Maybe but that's not the point he should have just said I got other things on at the moment so won't be dedicating time to this sorry.

There done. Honest and straight forward. :good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
Common guys I know all of you are not happy with the Black clipping but how many of you head to Samsung Developers page and lodge complain..... If all the Devs are busy with other latest phones, why don't we disturb the LOUSY people that sell the phone to us(SAMSUNG) until they clean their mess.....Kindly head to http://innovator.samsungmobile.com/...Lines=10&searchTextForm=&searchTypeForm=TITLE and

about it
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
Dude let me know how you get on :) Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
i just been over to the sammy forums 10 complaints been lodged vs 998 Supercurio posts,, where the hell is everybody get your buts over to sammy forums asap
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
Thank God some people actually have brain...... most of these guys are not serious,simply post a complain at Sammy's site but only few did that:o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SappYoda:
Well looks like we can finally point this out as a hardware problem:

Look at this forum post: www(dot)htcmania(dot)com/showpost.php?p=4991331&postcount=1035

This guy took his phone to Samsung technical service and asked them to replace the screen... And he no longer has black clipping and the screen looks like how its supposed to look.

So if you have screen issues just ask Samsung to replace it.

---------- Post added at 06:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 PM ----------

Thanks!!!!:good:but why are the Devs saying they will fix it using an app
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
Lol did you even to bother to read his post ??? he had a shade of green thats a pure defect ie hardware fault?? thats got nothing to do with black clipping on the note as its not hardware related ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SappYoda:
iirc supercurio just said he was looking into it, he never said it was fixable.

I'm going to ask Samsung to fix my screen lets see if I'm lucky and get a good screen.

He mentions he no longer has black clipping.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
Ask him to play the same youtube video, you play on your note that casuses black clipping trust me it will be on his device as well... Also i recently got a perfect note only 3 weeks ago compared to my first Galaxy Note screen had chunks like blocks showing when there was super low contrast on the display...

But the clipping is the exactly the same on my new note also with my new Galaxy Note the screen is perfect in low contrast and i mean PERFECT but i still have the black clipping issues same as the first Galaxy Note this is not the an hardware problem, its software related dude......

Lol i just watched The DARK Night Raises Trailer on youtube it looks flawless not 1 bit of black clipping it look Awesome can you plz try on your Note ?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8evyE9TuYk

check out this video as they count down 5 4 3 2 look at the sky you will see black clipping http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZxdnstFmxs&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] GocaS6:
When will you learn that it will always be that clipping in low resolution videos? And this crappy video with no more then 320x240 pixels is a real peace of s**t. And this is Super Amoled HD screen and i dont care less for that kind of videos.

Can someone give me a some HD or full HD video with clipping :cool:?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] debsuvra:
The 1080P HD videos from Youtube do show black clipping on Note. Take this Prometheus trailer for example, black clipping is clearly visible on the dark scenes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
Still not enough complains at Samsung developers page but already too many posts on this thread:silly:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
LOL Youtube 1080p videos are not true 1080p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
Still 57 posts (at this thread)against less than 15(at Samsung Developers page) and YOU keep wondering why Samsung will not take you serious :mad:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
Actually Samsung have a bad combination when it comes to certain colors on the SUPERAMOLED screen,even the SGS3 has some issue and SC already looking at it check this out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Znq...e_gdata_player

.....maybe a single app will cure all these problems

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
disappointing isnit........ ill pay 50 bucks randomly selected from from the sammy forums if there are a 1000 complaints on the sammy forums ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
it's not that dodgy...I think I would prefer perfect dark gray background than the dodgy, unwatchable blocky black...:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hajime_android:
I do the same thing. I watched the same video on both the Note (with Screen Adjuster app on) and the iPodTouch. Sure, the blacks ain't as black as before but in the dark, it is better watching the Note with this app than on the iPodTouch. The reason is that it was difficult to see some of the dark images on the iPodTouch. With the brightened (not as black) images, I could see all the images on the Note.

Anyway, I do hope that Mr. Supercurio would change his mind.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bamboo12:
LOL, you are watching it wrong, try downloading the trailer with tubemate
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
tubemote is awesome thanks can you recommend any cool trailers ?? how do i download videos with tubemote ??? its a remote app ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bamboo12:
i don't know what tubemote is, i'm talking about tubemate http://m.tubemate.net/ where u can choose exactly which resolution youtube clip to download
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Octhellion:
Resolution has nothing to do with it afaik. It's about the bitrate.

But even so, saying video x's bitrate is too low to play properly on the Note and we should get better quality video material is a bs argument because those videos play great on other devices.

If a $150 device can play a so-called crappy video perfectly then the Note should be able to as well.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
true talk..... but have you lodge your complain at http://innovator.samsungmobile.com/...Id=157514&boardId=1132&platformId=1&nacode=uk
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
I don't think Samsung will do anything about this stuff..... they are busy selling SGS3 so who give a sh*t about Gnote
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
LOL My Bad ill try tubemate thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
true SG3 is on there number 1 list but SGN2 is only a few months away october so might as well be patience till then :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] patladjanko:
Thanks dude,

With -12 contrast the black clipping on my Note is totally gone. The black is not so black, what the hell. I had a LCD Desire before, so I'm pretty much used to it! Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
yep i think i should wait for the SGN2 but am already disappointed in Samsung for the first time
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
Lol its not that bad comen its pretty awesome if you got true hd content to view :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
That is true but the fact that i bought my note just because of the large screen and still i can't even use it properly suggest something is wrong.... i wanted to show my colleagues that uses SGS2 that am the coolest dude but now,i have to hide my phone each time they are streaming videos from youtube
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
Lol thats hilarious you have to hide your phone from your mates :) The best thing i can suggest have you tried youtube via the in built browser ?? try it once youtube is loaded then tell your browser to fetch the desktop version... from there pick a video and switch it too 1080p dude the videos look so crisp and sharp its way better then the youtube app :) i think the browser does a better job at rendering the videos........ p.s i dont let my mates touch my sexy note ever:) too much sensitive data on it LOL
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nuramohammed26:
Nice lil trick thanks for the tip:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hackfree:
this is really annoying. all these custom roms, and noone took the time to actually fix something important as the color rendering...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sibere:
Maybe because nobody knows how to fix it.

Any suggestion instead of a complain?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Mokubai:
My sentiments exactly, unless you know precisely how to fix a problem yourself you have no right complaining about someone else not fixing it when they are doing you a favour (by providing ROMs) in the first place.

If it was their paid job to find and fix that sort of problem it would be different, but the people on this forum are doing it because the like doing it, not because they owe it to you.

If you're going to blame anyone, blame the manufacturer, and more specifically blame the internal political and money machines within the company that prioritise "the new sexy" over supporting old kit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CONTACTMC:
I have added my complaint to the samsung dev forum, it really is up to Samsung to fix this. I wasted time replacing my phone only to get a new one with the same issue. I will not bother again untill I am 100% sure I will not be wasting my time.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] paleh0rse:
The only thing I'll say about supercurio is that, at minimum, it would have been nice if he at least shared the tech details for what he claimed to have found in the GNotes' gamma implementation. He went so far as to state that he found the issue, but that it would require ICS source for HIM to fix it properly.

Now, since we don't even know what he claimed to find, any other dev would have to start from scratch.

He then essentially clammed up and never provided another update, even once the source code rolled out in late May (a few months later).

All in all, it was just very sad to see our one and only hope ditch us without so much as a "never mind and good luck." It almost felt like a social sciences experiment wherein he was trying to see just how many suckers he could find to raise their hopes and leave them hanging... he certainly had my name on that list. :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
have actually viewed true 720p content on your note ??? And im not talking about youtube or any other streaming so called websites ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] awesome-member:
^This.

I didn't expect supercurio to pull off such a stunt. Such a shame.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] little-vince:
Not to mention he raked in hundreds of "thanks" simply by making a thread which basically said "I am looking into it".

Usually thanks adds motivation...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Reynaldinho111:
Jesus christ, are we still whining about this? Yes it sucks but Supercurio has other things to do. Deal with it, he can only support so many devices and the work he'd have to do on the Note just isn't worth his time. This thread is getting reported, it has absolutely no value whatsoever...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tabsterleir:
Agreed. When did XDA's userbase become so entitled and whiny? All of you who are complaining, you all brought it upon yourself with your snide/rude comments and abuse in the previous thread. Did it ever occur to you that the reason why he wouldn't give updates is because he was, you know, busy working? No, of course not. Now you get nothing.

I swear 75% of this forum is someone complaining/declaring the Note a flop. Get over yourselves.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] paleh0rse:
I think it's you who needs to "get over yourself." Most of us, including myself, never *****ed or complained once during the months we spent waiting patiently for the ICS source and any simple update or news from supercurio.

If you ask me, the one who acted the most childish in this scenario was supercurio himself. When a select few troublemakers annoyed him -- a miniscule fraction of the thousands of silent users who were waiting on an update from him -- the little boy simply threw a tantrum, grabbed his ball, and ran home.

There is only one type of person I despise more than an individual who sees himself sitting high upon a pedastool, and that is the fool who places him there.

supercurio brought this on himself and deserves every criticism levied against him, and then some.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Tinderbox (UK):
I totally agree, no update for months and then because a couple of people complained every body else has to suffer because he thew a fit, totally unprofessional.

John.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CONTACTMC:
We have been over that a thousand times dude, yes we still get black clipping on full high quality 720p encodes, people say " but the samsung videos look fine" this is true, but the problem only shows up at a exact shade point which these vids dont have. I just wish we could all work together to get this resolved, also join forces with the owners of the 4g version of the Note, it also has the issue, huge thread on that forum.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] betoNL:
Bla bla bla...

Supercurio closed his thread because some whining airhead kids were threatening to "spam" him for a ETA among other nagging ....foolish and childish..

If you don't get what you expect, just move on.

You don't have to make this ANOTHER GNote screen issue whining thread :cyclops:

There are GNote devices with less screen issues than others or no issues at all..

My only issue is some black clipping in some videos and i solved that by using Screen Adjuster app(on my sign) on demand and after that I shut it off...

But if nothing is helping on your device, whining repeatedly about it on such threads wont help at all..

Return your device, go spam Samsung about it ...those are more useful actions..

Unless whining is your hobby....a kind of frustration therapy :D :D

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] janice1234:
it seems like samsung galaxy nexus is also having the black clipping issue, some user have claim that it have been solved by using the lean kernel (colour calibration) "wonder is there any something like this for galaxy note ??? "

Want a fix? Buy a sgs III. SC has identified the issue and according to his site and tweets will release an app. But only for the sgs III apparently due to the lack of screen characteristics concistency on the SGN.

Is there a way to make an update from V1.1a to the newest version without a full flash? I wish to avoid a reinstallation of all Apps and settings
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
I installed 1.2 straight over the top of 1.1 and it worked no problem, all apps and data unaffected.

Otherwise, do a cwm backup, then clean install, then cwm - advanced restore - restore data.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
So you have copied the V1.2 Zip-File on the SD card and flashed the version with 'AD recovery' in MAGLDR?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
I have flashed v1.4a, from v1.1a .

I did this:

Copied the ROM to my SDCARD, Backed up current ROM (Just in case), wiped dalvik cache, installed ROM, fixed permissions ('cause I installed an a2sd script), rebooted into ROM.

(Took about 17 minutes) at first.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
just done a 1.2a to 1.4a dirty upgrade, no backup/restore, just straight over the top, no fix permissions, nothing, , no problems (well, not in first 4 hours anyway)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
With wich tool do you do that?

How i can do that?

I don't understand, what you mean with this point

Sorry for much questions and thanks in advance for your help
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
Is that the item 'wipe cache partition' in MAGLDR in AD Recovery?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
In cwm choose advanced and you will see wipe dalvik
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
Yes, i found it, thanks for your help.

Do you think additional work is to do to erase dalvik because i'm using Link2SD? If you display an app in this program the part 'Dex' seems linked to dalvik and has moved for apps which are stored on the sd card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
And then you have all App, settings, etc. back on the system?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
Yep, they never left the system, there was no wipe,,,phone running fine, on 1.2, downloaded 1.4 using phone, restarted into cwm, ran the flash, rebooted, done. I wasn't even at home, I was on the train.

Admittedly there isn't a huge amount,, maybe 10 apps, and some data, but there was no setting up to do except for the PAD /PAL stuff,, contccts, wallpaper, shortcuts, loclscreen shortcuts, all exactly as it had been 4 minutes before.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
This point is currently open for me.

What does it mean?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
it means start cwm and click advanced - fix permissions
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nrpetonr:
have been doing update just flashing over the existing pa, no problem at all. so answer is yes.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
This is, hopefully ;), my last open issue.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Ok, let me clarify a few things for you:

1- I backed up my ROM (Because I was expecting a bootloop, so I did a BU just in case, it's not necessary if you know your ROM's going to boot.)

2- I wiped dalvik/fixed permissions because I use (amarullz d2ext) which requires a clean dalvik & fixing permission, if you don't use that script, you don't need them.

3- Other than that, you can do just like sam, install the update on top of your current rom and you should be good to go.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
Is amarullz comparable with Link2SD, then i must do it in the same manner?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTCdevel:
I have tried it before a few minutes, but it fails in a bootscreen with the HTC logo. Android doesn't start.

What i have done:

1) Copied the file paranoidandroid_hd2_v1.4a.zip to the SD card,

2) Enter MAGLDR

3) AD Recovery

4) Wipe Dalvik, fix permissions

5) Install Zip from SD card

6) choose Zip from SD card

7) choose the Zip and confirmed it

I have made a backup so i could restore the system and everything is like before. :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
Fix permissions AFTER installing the rom. There's nothing to fix until then.
