[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mistahgook:
Hi I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this after the update to Android 4.0.4. The Dynamic Screen Mode looks overly sharp and very bad compared to the Standard and Movie Screen Modes. This was not the case with 2.3.5 EL29. Also it seems like for Movie Mode the color hues have drastically changed. The screen display looks worse in my opinion with any setting with this build than Gingerbread. I do not understand why they made the font smaller. This makes the text look very pixelated. I really don't like how my screen looks right now. I wish I could do something about it. I'm wondering if anyone else, who hs used the Dynamic Screen Mode on EL29, is noticing this after the update to FF18. I immediately noticed it.

The picture quality on Standard mode is perfect but the colors are not popping out like they are on Dynamic. On Gingerbread, Dynamic screen mode had the same sharpness as Standard and Movie, but richer vibrant colors. I had my phone on Dynamic the entire time. After the update I cannot stand having it on Dynamic because the screen looks way too sharp. Text edges are too apparent. It needs to soften to the level of Standard mode. As of now I have it on Standard mode but it looks so dull compared to Dynamic. I hope in the next update, if any, Samsung will fix this issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chew DZ:
I have the same issue. I think it has something to do about not giving a crap about GS2 owners n slapping together an unfinished build and calling it an OTA. They're main focus is on GS3 now.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
so dynamic mode is vibrant but too sharp? its suppose to be.. no difference from dynamic on gb or ics here.. use standard then lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdsevol:
Im sure if you do enough research you can find out where that screen mode setting is coded in the build and adjust each setting according to your preference...I could be wrong but it would make sense.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
Its def different than ginger bread is his point. I seen the diff right away. But ours am easy fix, choose one down and it's perfect. And yes it was def a rushed ota, but the devs here will piece it together for sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chew DZ:
Yea. Its pretty much unusable. It looks pretty crappy & text looks kind of broken up

Do you like Jelly Bean lockscreen?

But our Galaxy S Blaze 4G is currently running Gingerbread, not Jelly Bean.

However, there is an app called Holo Locker that you can easily download free from Google Play Store.

This lockscreen is better than Go Locker.

Try it. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] unicorndust98:
Have the exact same one along with Holo Launcher. Got to say, freaking awesome.! :D

Also, in the dark, I cant help but think my Blaze is a Galaxy Nexus.!! I swear.! Lol.! :D

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] uminded:
I have built many linux boxes and have done some kernel development on the PC but I am quite new to linux on the embedded platform. I have an A100 and the built in apps that you cant remove are annoying as well as the fact their is no USB host mode even though the controller is capable and ready for it it seems Acer went out the their way to remove it so you where forced to choose the A500 for host mode.

I their any tutorials on how to build your own android distro and get it onto your device? Even if Its not for the A100 it would be a good learning experience to read through.

Are their any reasons their is not a vanilla ICS rom yet? I'm guessing its because Acer has their source locked up and we do not have compatible drivers yet?

Thanks!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
I would suggest reading some of the links in my signature to become more familiar with the tablet itself as well as some more universal information in the Guide, the CM9 building writeup will also help you understand about building a ROM for this (or any) device. Acer released kernel source already, ezterry will be the one to talk to about kernels, as he does build kernels for the Ax00 series of devices, based on Acer source.

I believe what you are asking for is an AOSP ROM, which no, there isn't any. Closest is the CM9 builds, also available in my signature. AOSP (Android Open Source Project) is pure google android, nothing added. CM9 is generally AOSP, but there are changes. The Acer roms, aside from their added apps, is a mostly untouched android as well, it isn't themed or anything like that, just bloated with apps and low on other functionality compared to other company's ROMs.

To remove the apps you dislike, you will need to root the device. Then you can remove whatever you want and gain system r/w. A step further will be to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery which will allow access to more tools, and flashing custom ROMs such as CM9, or any of the Acer based ROMs, such as Green and Flex Reaper.

We don't have much development here, however the A500 has a ton of development, and may be worth your visit to gleam information as it is much more active, and your questions may already be answered, or answered more readily then here. Alot of the development we have here are by A500 owners, who don't own the A100 at all. Besides me, but I'm not a developer.

Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on the new A100! Make yourself at home and enjoy your time with your device.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] uminded:
Wow your a one stop shop for the A100 world! My tablet is now rooted and I am looking into alternative firmwares but I do not see any with built in USB host yet. This would be a HUGE bonus to add for me as I use the tablet for work and all you can find are crappy micro bluetooth keyboards.

Thanks for the help!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
USB host is disabled hardware wise, so it will most likely never be available on the a100. Its available on the tegra2 soc but is likely just not hooked up. If it ever shows up it will be a hardware hack.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omega Kaos:
Is it possible to add cpu governors eg ondemand.ko into /system/lib/module and ismod them in init.grouper to allow different governors on a stock kernel

and if so does anyone have the modules or can point me in the right direction of how to build, create, and learning materials books, sources on the android kernels and modules

now i know a little bit about a little bit when it comes to android now im assuming that the android kernel is just a branch of the linux kernel and shouldn't be much different from it however im not sure what i should be looking for or reading

the kernel modules for cpu governors will help be finish my rom for the nexus 7 however if it turns out that some good resources comes up and i can pick up on it quickly i will have a custom kernel for the rom as well

am i right/wrong in saying the nexus kernel tree inc. drivers etc for tegra3 can be pulled via git from googles kernel repo

I waited till i could test on a STOCK T989 and they both connect and work(i almost lost them both she thought it was SOOO COOL)...

But my Phone with Darkside.Evolution.3.v7 will only connect to the keyboard... when i try to connect to the mouse it says paried... i click connect and it ask's for code 0000(yes i tried 1234) and it sits there for 30seconds(guessing) then nothing just show's the mouse and paired...

So very close.. i have MHL cable so yes i want to use keyboard mouse and bigscreen..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] booyashakas:
Hello all, was wondering if someone might have some guidance for me as I can`t seem to find much on this topic.

I`d like to use mainly the stock apps for what I can on the Nexus but there are some things that I`d really like to be able to change. Number one of which is the stock music player. It doesnt seem to have any options/settings for anything. I'm basically just looking to be able to have the artist's name displayed and once you click it to go directly to song lists. I don't like that it opens into albums then song. Is there a way to change this?

Furthermore, if there isn't a way to change that, is it possible to remove the album art at least?

Thanks all
