[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regalpimpin:
nah.. that seems pretty spot on.

Evo Lte, best screen on a mobile phone to date. Period. (okay, the One X is ok to...)

As far as the Nexus7 goes, it will look washed out compared to an over saturated, pixelated, pentile, blue hue'd samsung screen.

But as such, it will be much more clear for reading, and will look much more natural and realistic.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steezus:
Not all IPS screens are equal. Apple usually uses the best screens in their products and are able to reproduce a much fuller gammut than their competition. I still don't purchase most Apple products, but the one thing they do that is almost always better is use better screens. There are crap IPS screen just like there are crap TN screens. I love my Nexus 7, but this screen so far is crap. I hope it is the Tegra function washing the screen out so that modders or Google can allow us to change that in the future.

Would have loved to have seen an spva panel like the 2408wfp in a mobile device. Great view angles color and contrast. Also lower power consumption than IPS.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sway40:
You can have your opinion, but more people like and prefer samoled or samoled+, but it doesn't matter BC its all opinions. I've seen the evo lte in person and the screen is alright at best.

Dang, I don't know what device you're talking about. My Nexus 7 screen is perfect-color accuracy, saturation and sharpness. I have a GS2 and I agree that that screen, as vivid as it is, kind of overdoes it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] songmeesay:
The only gripe I have is consistency. I had an 8gb and 16gb side by side and the 8gb had a warm tint which saturated some colors better vs the 16gb that was cooler in comparison.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vrvr:
They are not equal because either the Nexus 7 or the iPad(3) panels are IPS panels.

In the Nexus 7 is a Hydis HV070WX2 panel. Hydis produces AFFS panels not IPS. Most likely it is a new HFFS panel technology from Hydis.

The iPad(3) has a Samsung LTN097QL01-A0 panel, witch is a PLS panel.

I don't really know why all the display products are reduced to the IPS brand, even if they are not. There are many high quality display technologies not just IPS.

Someone better tell Google then as it says "7” 1280x800 HD display (216 ppi) Back-lit IPS display" on the Play Store
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harry GT-S5830:
Its not SUPER Amoled (HD).

IPS is to reduce the tint when viewing from a slight angle
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vrvr:
Google can advertise as they want (like Apple). Other then the IPS brand would not say anything to the customers, and they would not understand what is it, so it is sadly reduced to IPS. Technically they are what I wrote, and this is the main reason for the most quality differences.

IPS isn't a brand, it's a technology.

Really? :)

Apple an other made from it a quality standard. The normal customer has no clue what IPS is, for them it's just a bran for quality, and other manufacturers just use it like Apple.

Read a little (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TFT_LCD) different types of LCD. Just IPS has 6 or 8 different subtypes, and all of them produces different quality. Most manufacturers are bound to their own technology.

Hi Guys,

So I'm currently on 4.0.4 with Root access and an unlocked bootloader, but I'm a little unclear as to how to get to CM9,

I know I need to get a recovery, but which one? DoomRecovery or FreeXperia? I've gotten as far as getting FreeXperia to work, but then I can't boot any further and I'm stuck in recovery, is that how it's supposed to work? Do I need to flash a Kernel, then the CM9 rom zip? Which Kernel, DoomKernel?

I'm just not sure what order and what option to use, I've had a few attempts and each time I get stuck somewhere.

Thanks for any and all help,

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Castill:
nookdevsDOTcom /NookColor:_CyanogenMod_Internal_Installation#ixzz21UtixX6U[/url]

All right. I went into clockworkmod recovery one day and I did the above mistake, I wiped the EMMC of my nook color, which had the stock OS/ROM. I had CM7 on an SD card.

I don't know whether or not the SD card is ruined, and how to fix my nook color, since it will not connect/read data through usb to any computer now. I cant even charge it like normally, It wont show the normal charging screen. if I plug it into the power adepter, it simply turns on and constntly re-boots.

I'm thinking of buying a new micro SD card and follow the instructions at the above link. will that fix my problem (if I properly set up a new card and pop it in the nook, etc.)?

if I cant fix this I might go to a website and buy one of their pre loaded recovery cards so that I can fix my nook. but I am destitute, (sadly) and I dont think I could risk that right now..

I dont have a mini SD card reader right now, so I cant test out the old 8GB SanDisk I used for CM7 (which I bought preloaded on amazon). I'm going to buy a card reader along with the new 16GB SD card, if I do decide to purchase one.

My apologies if I am sound confusing, I have some language/context issues. Thank you for any help.

[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
True about being able to disable them

Thats a good feature of ICS, and probably why the android devs decided to build it into ICS

But, laginess IMO creates the impression that the phone is crap

which creates the impression that the hardware is crap

and that HTC is crap

and android is crap

And thats why people buy iphones

Same with low end phones like the OG wildfire which didn't have a GPU

They are compared to the iphone (unfairly) and people class android in general as being crappy

Thats what happens in Melbourne/Australia anyway

[HTC Incredible S] mr nick:
I'm a little intrigued as to what's happening with the Virgin AU phones. While they are run on the Optus network and they have an Optus CID (OPTUS002) they are completely unbranded and have none of the Optus software installed and do not have a sim-lock either so theoretically they should get the same 'clean' update as the European WWE release. Virgin haven't said whether any updates will be pushed by themselves so I don't know if these phones will even get an update or whether they will get it at the same time as the branded Optus units. Due to the lack of customisation on Virgin phones, it's a bit ropey having to wait until late August to receive the update (if at all). One can only hope it's because they are ironing out even more bugs for the final release.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Maybe contact them and ask, I haven't heard anything from them either
[HTC Incredible S] mr nick:
I did ask them a few months back when I was speaking to them regarding a billing issue. They said that any updates made for their phones are available from the manufacturers websites. The person I spoke to had no knowledge of the concept of OTA updates and said I should simply check the HTC website on a regular basis.

Media Scanner is the battery killer everyone is having problems with. Media Scanner scans your virtual SD card for say new MP3s or pictures and videos.

That media process could get stuck if you have corrupted files. You could try to make some backups and delete all the files, if you have any corrupted file you will probably get an error when doing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] DivinityCycle:
+1 on this.

What's happening here is most likely this:

MediaScanner just goes through each directory and sub-directory, looking for "media". When it encounters files that it thinks are media, it then tries to scan them into the system's media database. This procedure is done assuming the file is really what it says it is, like "if it has .mp3 at the end of the filename, its an .mp3, so try and read ID3 tags out of it and whatnot..." The issue here is that it appears that the media scanner is written to just process through the filesystem sequentially, one file at a time. It has hit some sort of file it cannot understand, and rather than giving up, its just "stuck" on that file. Since this tells your system "the mediascanner is still working, bro!" your CPU isn't going to sleep like its supposed to.

Unless you have a good idea of what file is corrupted, the easiest way to go is to simply backup all your stuff and then delete "everything" from both the fake and read sdcard spaces, then put back only the media you really want.

Do me a favor and from your stock browser on your ICS phone, try to access this web site:

http://goo.gl/JvqyR

You can't can ya? But my gingerbread stock browser can.

All this web site is, is a login page from my favorite late night talk radio program Coast To Coast AM. From your computer, and from any level of Android your able to access this page except ICS and JB.

Right now, my phone is running gingerbread and I'm able to select the link and view the login page. If i upgraded my phone to ICS, i wouldn't be able to view it!

I don't believe the carriers make any difference.

Now, there are only a few browsers that can access the link.

Firefox - yes

Dolphin HD - no

Chrome - no

Oracle - yes

Stock - no

When Samsung released ICS for my Galaxy S 2, i couldn't access this website from my favorite browsers anymore. It's like the upgrade brake my phone from the start.

Why? Can your stock ICS browser can? if so, what phone are you on, and rom?

I believe it has something to do with a core service built into ICS and possibly JB that the 'stock' browser and some others depend on.

Hey all, ordered this before I got my N7 finally came in today. Fit is pretty decent but I think I'll take an exacto knife around the screen rim as it has a SLIGHT overhang. You'll definitely want a heat gun, a hair dryer might work but it will take quite a while to heat up. You want to peal off part of the bottom and cut the paper off. The only way to tell if you're lined up is by the speaker cut out so I lined that up and went from there. After I had the back laid on I smoothed the edges around sides and then worked on smoothing the corners. I then heated up the whole thing to activate the adhesive giving a lot of attention to the corners. It looks decent but it could be a little better cut.
