[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
I have got my nexus yesterday, but there are thing burned in the screen I think (I have a screen protector, but I don't think it is on that), are there ways to fix it? Or do I have to take it back to the store?

Thanks for your help,

And hello Nexus community (:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
Burn-in was a term for LCD screens, not AMOLED.Think of it as something called "reverse led fatigue"

Calling it a burn it is incorrect, but more widely known. Check this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27350974&postcount=4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
So, can I fix this by putting my phone at full brightness on a white screen for a while? :D

If it is possible to fix it it would be awesome! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
I don't know if it would fix it, I'm afraid, but it might be worth a try?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] olokos:
Try to download movie from the web or make one so the screen wont turn off :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
And what? A movie with white screen running the whole night? Will that fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
You could plug your phone into the wall, make a white image, turn off nav bar(If on custom rom) and select keep phone awake in the dev section of settings.

Or you could go the movie route, but plug it in, so it won't run out of juice in 2 hour:p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
So screen on on white screen will fix my problem? :D and can't cause other damage?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
I have a 10 hours white screen youtube video running now, so a whole white screen :D Do you know if I can destroy something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Nil.:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chaotic Peace:
I would return the phone if you just bought it. It shouldn't have that issue already.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
I hardly think anything can take damage from doing so. Just make sure the phone don't overheat but still doesn't get too cold.

Laying the phone near a window overnight can be very bad for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
Ok, I will try it now, my phone battery was low ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
I am having this device since december, but I started seeing this now... I still have warranty, should samsung repair it for free?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
They should and they will, if all is like they want it. Just return the phone to stock in all aspects. I don't think it matters if it's yakju/takju/yakjusc etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Over time burn in can happen. But if the phone is only one day old then maybe I'd return it? I hide top and bottom bar daily and browse the web to exercise all the pixels to avoid burn in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thatgrass:
Hmm.. smart ;)

To everyone: AFTER 3 HOURS OF WHITE SCREEN THE BURN-IN IS DISAPPEAR FOR A BIT! :D Tommorow i will try it longer, because battery is death :p

Thanks for that idea :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Do consider that if you return your gnex for warranty purposes, you may get a refurb with horrible screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
This is a factory defect. I just called Verizon and they replaced it. Should be here tomorrow, I had the same issue and tried all the remedies. It's just a defective panel to be honest. If you can get a new one, do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zetsumeikuro:
If it's just ghosting that can be temporary.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suzhipack:
DEVELOPERS OUT THERE i hope someone will make our xperia play search button as power button and power button as search button..

i think its a nice idea..
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordanooo:
Why?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suzhipack:
much easier to use power button if they change it to search button :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRhyiku:
I actually agree on this, my power button is quite fiddly to press, and having it at the front would solve that. But there is also the matter of accedently pressing it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacromatiX:
for you

Why would you need that may I ask?...The search button is called search button for the function of using search. Is this your real idea/question or your power button is not functioning and you need to use an alternative?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suzhipack:
ive been in LG optimus one last time..

my search button is useless and now ive got this XPERIA PLAY and AGAIN

my search button is useless and i dont need this becoz i dont use it..

thats why i ask this if someone will make it :(

becoz power button is far to press :(
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leraeniesh:
Here is how you do it

Download RootExplorer or a similar app that can edit /system/

Navigate to /system/usr/keylayout/

Open keypad-zeus.kl as a text file

Near the bottom, change

key 217 SEARCH

to

key 217 POWER

Save the changes made, and reboot your phone.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masters2150:
Be careful, this also makes the search button the screen lock button if I'm not mistaken.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brsingr:
Have you had success with this working?

Also in regards to the keymapping, don't you need to change the power button to search and the search button to power...what's the key code for the power button?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xcited android user:
Do you can also map the search button as recent apps button in this way?

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] MH-Droid:
Hello guys

How can i change the font of new samsung lock screen?

I tried to change it from system/font but non of them is related to the time in lockscreen....
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] MH-Droid:
Any one?

کسی نیست؟
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SonyXperiaAce:
Clockopia is the font of clock
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SonyXperiaAce:
Or in note lock they are pngs in framework-res.apj
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] skunks11111:
easy...

Hey have you solved your problem?

well if not, here's an easy method of how to do this:

1. download Fontchanger from here: Font Changer (root)

2. put the new Font on the sdcard to .fontchanger

3. change it in FontChanger with Clockopodia when going to Advanced

4. you're done! reboot and see if it worked. (i use Robote from ICS for my Font ;)

5. If it dient work, try to replace the Font with another one until it works
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] MH-Droid:
I solved it.

Numbers are png's in framework
[Xperia Arc General] skipme:
I see a lot of people bragging about the build quality of the Xperia Arc/Arc S. I have a Xperia Arc S and accidentally dropped it in a river and it sat submerged at 1 meter for about a minute. I had to call to find it and it rang underwater, picked up, removed battery. I disassembled it after 2 hours and found no trace of water entering the area with the circuits. I only had to clean the headphones jack and USB port. Everything is working as new, including the speaker, which was exposed the most.

And, yes, i have the Midnight Blue one, and no cracks whatsoever and I am careless with my phone sometimes.
[Xperia Arc General] OverLo4d:
Arc S is a great phone:D
[Xperia Arc General] ^eLipS#:
Only thing I can say is that you are very lucky.
[Xperia Arc General] pveyes:
No, it's really that Arc S is awesome :p

[Xperia Arc General] rezaswandira:
i also dropped my arc s from the top of stairs last night, got a little dent because of rhe railway, but okay after all
[Xperia Arc General] azuremaroon:
Mine is good also

I dropped my arc S onto the ground from about 1 metre a few days ago.

And only a little bit paint-off at a corner of the front.

I was impressed that no scratches or broken parts on my arc S :good:
[Xperia Arc General] gnirujan:
I have an Arc S now but i am not so sure with its built quality thanks to my old Neo which after two drops and frequent battery cover removing became horrible and cheap. :mad: It was making squeaky sounds and made me sell it. Made me hate phone made with plastic. Then i got an Arc S (Still don't know what made me buy a plastic phone again, maybe its awesome design) and my experience with Neo made me buy a case and i am using the phone real carefully. I never dropped it once and only if really necessary i remove battery cover. I am sure if i used it the same way i used my Neo it would have be no much different from how my Neo was. Out of all 2011 xperias only Ray has a good solid build everything else is cheap plastic :(

Update: I forgot to mention the bloody plastic keys which loses its colour and looks rusted after frequent use. That happened to my Neo. I did a through research and came to the conclusion that the paint went away because i was pressing the buttons with my nails and it had starched them and took of the paint. Now with my Arc S you believe me or not i cut my nails frequently just because i don't want the same fate as my Neo for this phone, which i am starting to love.
[Xperia Arc General] anteloop:
My Arc S (with a case) survived a couple of drops between 1 to 1.5 metre, nothing major, not even a noticeable scratch.

I hope I don't have to find out if it will survive a water proof test. :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barricademan:
I think I've tried everything from wiping data/factory reset to wiping the cache in two different places through CWM.

I've tried installing 4 different roms of which two of them said they installed but couldn't get them to show when I rebooted. between every rom I performed a wipe and even formatted my sd card. It seems as though the only thing on the internal part of the phone is CWM.

I've been reading different posts for two days now and have tried every suggestion I've found although I wasn't sure how to go about using adb method.

The phone is a LG Esteem from Metro PCS, Any suggestions?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] nitin_ko:
I purchased my droid razr XT912 which may have a bad esn from ebay and got my number programmed with reliance cdma and am using it simless (non omh), calls/evdo/sms and all work well.

i hv put a blank sim card which does help show verizon wireless as service provider on lock screen as without sim it always showed no sim inside.

my question is if I will get OTA uodate to ICS or do i need to follow the other methods posted here.

ty
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 0vermind:
Whether a phone is activated with service or not, theoretically you should get OTA updates. I've had phones in the past that did not have a sim card, as soon as I connected wifi, it would prompt to update.

I flash bad ESN phones to Cricket and they still get OTAs.

Tappin the talk
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nitin_ko:
thank you for the positive feedback, no signs of OTA yet but i'll wait :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] anivesh:
hi nitin

which city in india are you from.

I have just bought xt912. it will be delivered to me in around 10 days.

i fear it may have bad esn

how and where did you get it flashed to reliance.

how much did it cost?

have u updated to ics and tried any gsm sim with it?

waiting for reply
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nitin_ko:
Am in Delhi. Bad ESN should not matter. message me if you are in delhi want to know who programmed it for me.

I am using on reliance CDMA with OTA ICS and never faced any issue. Works on gsm as well after update.

if you want to use EVDO, u will need a verizon sim else only 1x will work.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] anivesh:
thanks man

hey man cant tell u how much you eased my worries...i was thinking i was pretty much sc**wed up with a brick coming to me.

Im a little easy now.

i am from delhi too

I just got another one 4 days back was a clean esn. and works good with my airtel sim.

Have you checked any gsm sim on your bad esn phone?

i want to use airtel. I hope it will work.

It should.

thanks for your reply.

can you drop me your number in my private inbox in case i need your help

thanks again:D:D:D:D:D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nitin_ko:
simply update to ICS and ur ready to go for any gsm. programming is needed only if u want to use on cdma and that too with data.

Hi

I`ve just rooted with cf-root and wanted to backup my EFS, just in case.

On my Sgs2 i used hellcatdroid`s Ktool, wich was quick and easy, but its not working with the sgs3. I saw an option for it in the galaxy s3 toolkit, but i can`t seem to get it to work with my phone/computer ( cf-root might have something to to with it ?)

Hope someone can point me in the right direction :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Have not seen any compatible apps yet, although plenty of ways that can be sourced with a little search....

EFS Backup Pro is an excellent and trouble free method (PC required), flashing some custom roms and kernels will automatically backup EFS to sdcard too.

ADB commands......

Hey Guys there is something else, the Wifi is not getting proper signal ad speed, It is getting less than half the speed it should be getting.

I know this question has been asked before. But how is the ringtones fix coming up? any updates? or any temporary fixes? Not trying to be rude or impatient since I havent stopped playing with the phone since I flashed CM9. Also quick question what are the differences between CM9 and the AOKP other than the awesome unicorn :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Ringtones should be fixed int he next release, a update to aokp was released this morning and it has that issue fixed.

The biggest dfference is the customization options of the two roms. Best bet is to test them and see which one you like the best.
