[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
There were screen quality issues with the transformer prime and the tranformer when they were released. I was hoping ASUS got their QC figured out by now or Google made them have a higher threshold during QC for holding them back. I am hoping I don't need to go through 3 of these like I did with my prime due to screen issues like stuck pixels, dust under the screen or white spots.
[Nexus 7 General] clubtech:
My IO N7 screen started to separate from the bezel on the left side and the white back started discoloring into blue/black.

I hope the production units are build better.
[Nexus 7 General] WinDroidGuy:
Mine also started turning black/blue on the lower area by charging port :(

Can you post a picture? What kind of discoloration?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 General] Brigaid:
I can understand the OP's problem with the line of pixels , but discoloration on the case seems irrelevant on the I/O model. This model was given out specifically to be a development platform, not to parade around in pristine condition. If I were a developer, I wouldn't care about a discoloration issue because all I would be worrying about would be making sure my application works on the platform.

[Nexus 7 General] guitar1969:
This is starting to sound more and more like the botched TF Prime release with issues that should not make it out the door. You would think Asus would have stepped up the QC for Google, because if they let them down, then they are going to piss off a major force in the industry.

I am not going down that TF Prime road again as an early adopter - maybe I will wait a few weeks to see if the production getts better, like it did on the later units of the Prime.

Not sure why Asus can't get their act together . . .

Glad i'm not the only one to find issues with the nexus 7 screen, got my nexus saturday, didnt have time to have a good play with it. Sunday afternoon, I get chance to have a good look at it, I immediately notice a nice 1 inch vertical scratch at top left of screen. its deep enough to feel the grove with your finger nail. Emailed ebuyer asking for a replacement.

Not happy
[Nexus 7 General] al3xx:
Any people with I/O Nexus 7's with issues - I called the Nexus team and they said they'd be looking into getting replacements (possibly with I/O white backs or regular black backs) to people. Hopefully I can get mine replaced. Good thing that I can get this replaced instead of having it RMA'd.

Did you have to call a specific number or anyone in specific you talked to? I want to call them about mine.

A few people having issues doesn't mean it was a botched release. Just take a look at the iPad, Kindle Fire, etc forums and you'll see that there's always a good number of people who got defective units. It happens.
[Nexus 7 General] al3xx:
The main Nexus hotline, (855) 83-NEXUS. Had to wait for a while because of the hordes of people calling to ask about their Nexus 7 shipments, but when I got through I just mentioned that I got a tablet from I/O and it has a line of dead pixels. He took down my info and said that someone would be emailing me about details for replacements. Hope this all works for everyone!

Another screen problem – this time on a production unit

I just bought my GN7 yesterday and was using it extensively for the last 28 hours or so, but found a dead row of pixels when I woke it from sleep a few minutes ago.

Since it was a retail purchase, I'll be taking it back for replacement this afternoon. This is a disappointing experience to say the least. Everything else about the tablet, including Android 4.1/JellyBean was really exceptional until this happened.

[Nexus 7 General] Huey85:
I'm experiencing the same strange line going through the navigation bar down the bottom it's like a straight line of white pixels when the navigation bar is there on the bottom

Here's a photo of mine:

http://db.tt/Weqpjp1O

http://db.tt/xsaDo5Rw

As you can also see in the second photo, when I switch to landscape and the screen is white, there's a whole line of black pixels.. wtf?

I didn't notice this when I first set it up and used it – I only noticed it after I updated the software OTA to 4.1.1.
[Nexus 7 General] mike55btz:
Just FYI, my Nexus 7 that I received yesterday has the exact same line, except its about 1.5 inches higher. The same symptoms where it changes to an inverse color depending on the background.. Mine also when its powered up for the first time does show a line, but it slowly starts to appear and will remain. Calling the place I bought it from today to see about getting a replacement. Also have an email into google customer support.
[Nexus 7 General] Mosc_007:
Looks like the Nexus 7 screen is very poorly manufactured.

I bought mine about 6 weeks ago and it seemed perfect. No dead pixels. No screen lifting.

Turned it on tonight to find a Full line of dead pixels.

This seems to be happening too much. Seems to common to be just the odd one here and their.

Here is a little video from my screen lifting issue and popping noise.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twvsDDtrMf0&feature=youtu.be
[Nexus 7 General] matheusrc:
Umbelieveble! My N7 has exactly the same line, even the inverse color part! The sad part is that i got mine from US, and i live in Brazil and can`t even try to get a replacement. Did you guys figured something out to fix this?

I was really suspicious of the Paranoid Android ROM, as it all happened after i flashed the Paranoid 2.99b5 rom (the line is about the same height of the default action bar in the ROM), but i can`t say for sure.

Do you know if dead pixels can have this color variation behavior? As far as i knew, it would be black only, no matter what, so this variation only gives me some hope that it can be fixed somehow.

thanks!
[Nexus 7 General] DxTcmix:
I just received my Nexus 7 today and it has those two beautiful color changing lines at the bottom of the screen right above the navigation bar, and below it. It shows up all the time. Looks like I get to exchange mine also :(

That's weird that it shows up just around the navigation bar! Is that the stock ROM?
[Nexus 7 General] RootTheMachine:
Is it there when you rotate?
[Nexus 7 General] DxTcmix:
It is there when I rotate, shows up as two black lines, I am running completely stock and updated to 4.2. Don't have the screen lift problem from what I can tell and no popping. I did a screenshot to see if it was a software issue, but the screenshot is clear with no lines. I have not factory rested it yet, Don't think that will do much good, given that the lines show up at the boot screen and on the startup screen.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] madsere:
I just bought this Chinese knock-off counterfeit Android tablet. I had a look at the early models available but they were really not worth the (little) money asked for them, but this one was actually quite usable, not great but ok for $80 US.

The tablet is 7", has SAMSUNG written on the front and back, but "About Tablet" says:

Rk29SDK

Model number: SONY Q7

Android version 4.0.3

Kernel version: 3.0.8 yuxg@yuxg-desktop#135

Build number: H.K-2012

The CPU appears to be a armeabi-v7a

Hardware: rk29board

As I mentioned, it's obviously not really a Galaxy Tab, but for the price it's ok, but it does have some quirks. For example, some internal memory is mounted on the /sdcard mount point. Actual sdcards inserted are mounted on /mnt/external_sd.

It works ok for apps that don't mind using that path, but some apps only want to look at /sdcard, so it would be practical if I could symlink /mnt/external_sd to /sdcard - but I need root for that, hence the need to root the device.

Anyone have any experience with at least rooting this device?

If there's any ROM cooking going on for this device I'd love to hear about it as well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hikarugo:
Maybe off topic but my Galaxy S II behaves like that too. The sdcard is mounted in /sdcard/external_sd
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] madsere:
Is that standard for a Galaxy S2 ? So how does app's that look for /sdcard use it?

ok i am stuck at the samsung boot screen, but nothing works ( i mean i have CWM and ODIN) but when i flash it just gets stuck ( not during flashing but at the samsung screen where it is blue and white, also the blue LED in on at the top)! also it has not booted long enough for adb to work so i cant pull a logcat

also i cant restore a nandroid because every time it tries to restore data it says error restoring /data!

to anyone who is rooted, can you go to /dev/block/by name/ scroll down and tell me what the last one was (sprint) ( i dont remember the name of the folder but there should be two and one of them is about name and the other a about number)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] ThC23:
What do you mean you need a pit file??

Didn't you have one to begin with?

What exactly did you Odin then?

What carrier are you with?

On my S2 when I brought it back to stock after using Odin it got stuck on the Samsung logo.

I had to go to stock recovery and do a factory reset and that helped.

It booted after that.

Try it.

[Galaxy S II General] donalgodon:
I think most of those issues are due to Siyah, because I've tried the same builds running the stock kernel, and I didn't encounter most of them. Bluetooth fine, USB fine, etc. Nothing major. Still went back to LGP because the 4.0.4 implementations are quite ugly at this point.
[Galaxy S II General] Jarmezrocks:
Again flashed this ROM no problems.

I also attempted to run 4.04 czech republic version of this ROM to which it did not boot or run. Just to let those know that were considering doing this. I had 3 apks from that 4.04 build that refused to deodex? Also the sizes of all apks in this version of 4.04 (which does not come with a supplied .pit file) are vastly different to those in the Euro 4.04 supplied with .pit?

Yet to download and try 4.04 Chinese version? I figured someone else has probably already done this....the chinese are fast lil buggers. They don't much around! haha. If anyone has feel free (and please I would like you to contribute) to comment in this thread on your findings?

PS: Just about to flash standard kernel on unpartitioned GS2 if all goes well I will implement CF-Root. Cheers
[Galaxy S II General] Jarmezrocks:
Did you re-partition when you flashed stock kernel? I like the sounds of this. I have the 4.04 working nicely.....if i can achieve the above I will create a ROM and upload. Thank you for your valuable input ;)

I may even test with the czec 4.04 kernel and see what happens there? Hmmm

Kernels are identicle sizes but not the same?

czec zimage: MD5 2A4AE1B758D934E2AD1791E318F94424

europe zimage: MD5 FCB26E67AE9E7F701793B6014E4AF7D2

No fix for USB enablement? I have switched the customboot.sh for the MTP application. I however don't have MTP.apk in system? I may place this apk and then re-try to see if I might be able to get the thing to be recognised by my PC.
[Galaxy S II General] Jarmezrocks:
USB Mass storage is now working via the old method. I need to have the MTP client in system/app for this to work. No longer getting the USB device not recognised which is great.

Any kernel devs want to share with me how to embed the correct components in the kernel to allow for customboot.sh to work? I am certain then that USB mass storage will work when that script can be run and enabled at boot. I dare say that boot animations should work then also.

4.04 is starting to shape up nicely now :)

So, anybody know how to keep active the tablet when its closed and no USB conected??????

An app???? A script that can run in terminal???? because I try with keep the screen on setting but didnt work.

Hope somebody can help me. Thanks in advance.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
Try enabling the option to keep the wired network active when sleeping. I found that this seems to keep the USB ports active (although it also completely disables deep-sleep on the tablet, so there are battery trade-offs)....

Only problem is that I think that you need to connect a USB->Ethernet adapter in order for the option I'm talking about to appear (actually so that the entire "Ethernet" menu appears)...

no it's not cooking a whole new rom, read the instructions i linked again.

it's just changing a few system files, then you flash a zip. once you get the hang of it you'll find it's not difficult at all

the option to turn battery % off is available in roms like cyanogen and oxygen. if it's built into the sense rom don't think it's possible unless you flash a zip.
