[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
I tried the tester, I don't think the phone has burn in now. But something is wrong. I really don't think reinstalling everything is going to fix it. I think its this cheap screen Pacific Mall gave me.

I've figured out a better way to describe it. The screen gets way too saturated and is VERY pixelated while showing black and whites.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
I don't think burn in is the proper term. I think that's when an image stays on the screen. This more or less definitely sounds a cheap screen. I have no experience with any of it, but please provide a pic, OP. Hopefully somebody can help. Even if you did get it repaired, you need to check your receipt/ their policy for this stuff. Return it to stock and work from there.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Your Nexus is fscked. Seriously, if the colors are all messed in cwm, there's not much we can do. I believe there's 2 different oled panels for the Nexus S, both with digitizer integrated obviously. I recall reading about someone complaint about getting the non fitting one. Besides, have you done the install yourself? Are you sure everything is properly installed? IIRC the person touchscreen didn't work right either with the "wrong" panel.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
I don't have a choice. I just paid for a screen replacement to be given a defective one in place. I can't complain to the people who did it because they're in Pacific Mall, if you're in Canada you'll know that's a waste of time. I have no money and I'm looking for a first job. When/if I get one rather than pah another $120-240 I'm just going to buy a gnex. So I'm stuck with this for however long. Its a pain but I have no choice... I tried a factory reset, tried sticking with no voodoo colors for a week, tried changing ROMs, tried unrootinf and returning to stock then back again.. Nothing works.

1) How do i fix the borders cut off in landscape mode when connected to TV?? If u look at youtube videos every user regardless of TVs have the screen bit cut off even thou phone's resolution is 16:9 720p?

2) Why does it display in 1080p not 720p (screen on galaxy s3 is 720p)? (my laptop using same hdmi cable without adaptor shows as 720p on TV) id like to be able to adjust it

3) My galaxy s3 heats up to 55 Celsius when playing with the phone and mirroring games. Is this normal? (although my alienware laptop heats up same also when connected to TV)

4) There is a abit of a lag between TV and a phone, the phone also seems to lag more when connected to TV :( (my laptop doesnt experience this)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dusanzk:
Hey,

1) I have a Samsung TV and on my remote there's a button labeled 'P.SIZE', i'm guessing that stands for picture size. I keep pressing that button until 'Just Scan' appears on my TV, this adjusts the borders accordingly, basically, doesn't cut them off. I tried the exact same thing on a Philips TV and it didn't have 'Just Scan', the best i could do there is have the borders cut off but only by a little bit.

2) I'm not sure about this one but it's my understanding that, if your TV supports 1080p then the phone upscales to that resolution and if your TV only supports 720p then it displays at 720p. I think most of us would like to be able to adjust it :)

3) I think this is normal seeing as your phone is displaying it's screen...twice and in 1080p...while playing CPU/GPU intensive games + while on charger. (Yea, i'm not sure it's fair to compare a laptop with the S3 in that context)

4) I read some info on what could possibly be causing the lag...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1799157...They discuss how, when the S3 is connected to a 1080p TV, the S3 then displays the picture in 1080p at 24hz which apparently is good enough for videos but not for games. Whereas if you connect the S3 to a 720p TV it displays the picture in 720p at 60hz which apparently makes it less laggy. (Once again i don't think comparing an Alienware laptop with the S3 is just)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blocoholi:
I've got a problem and it started two weeks ago. Since then I was only able to charge the phone when I plugged it into the charger when turned off. But today even this has stopped working. When I plug it in the battery graphic appears but the circle isn't spinning and when the graphic is gone after 1-2 seconds the screens goes black and nothing happens... it doesn't charge, just dead!

You should still have a warranty. Return it for Warranty purposes.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] bikrame:
Is anyone using stylus with our phone? Which one you use?

I tried Notes stylus and it didnt work.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eiraku:
The Note stylus ONLY works with the Note, thanks to it's active digitizer.

I'm using an Adonit Jot Mini on my S3, and even then only when I feel like doodling or annotating stuff. For serious stylus work the screen is not precise or fast enough IMHO.

Maybe it'll be better with JB and Butter.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePlasticBling:
Last night, I tried flashing a new ROM and whenever I restarted or booted the phone, it sent me to recovery mode. I couldn't do anything about it. Today I flashed the Odin version of GeeWiz and when I try to flash a new ROM in recovery, it says "operation aborted" and when I try to restore my backup, it says "system.img not found. Skipping"

How can I fix this??? Please help very soon!

Please! Am I bricked?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crawshayi:
I'm not sure what went wrong, you're not really supplying any details about what you did, but I would say make sure to follow droidstyle's guide exactly as he says to, and if you still have issues to come back here with exactly what went wrong.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultipleMonomials:
ODIN CWMALL, then try that backup again.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbb623:

Worse case justODIN back to stock EH03 and start again.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePlasticBling:
Didn't work.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultipleMonomials:
Then your backup really is corrupted. You're not trying to restore a backup made with a different version of CWM, are you? What ROM were you on and what ROM did you flash?

I was on cyanogen mod. But also If I try to flash roms through cwm, it doesn't work.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shelby04861:
Me thinks you need to take the advice of what has been mentioned and follow droidstyle's to get yourself back to stock. That is...if you want to take a cchance on getting your phone to work again.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePlasticBling:
I took all of the advice. I eventually ended up using a different recovery and my roms flashed fine. I feel really stupid :(
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePlasticBling:
OK, two new problems. My phone keeps booting into recovery, and the battery messes up. When I boot with it plugged in, it's at like 14% and when I boot without it plugged in, it's at like 65%. Please help!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crawshayi:
Maybe try to re-calibrate the battery? The simpliest method I've come across is found here, just scroll down a bit to the section labeled 'RECONDITION YOUR BATTERY'. As far as booting into recovery, I'm not too sure what might have happened there, might just need to start again from stock like you've probably already done a hundred times

[HTC One X] orthanc77:
You might also need a non-gba micro sim for EDGE to work on tmobile. Wasted a lot of time looking for it as they are discontinued. You might get lucky and find one still sitting at a tmobile store. The card holding the micro sim would be blank instead of a photo that tmobile usually prints on the card. And also look for the 50.01 printed on the edge of the micro sim itself. Had a relative with this problem so we just cut his old sim since he hadnt switched to a gba SIM yet.

Hi,

My wife dropped my Desire (now hers) and cracked the screen. LCD appears to be fine, just the gorilla glass has cracked. I was looking on eBay for a replacement and found "digitizers"...is this what I need? "Screen glass" yields no results!

Sorry, what do you mean?

He means send it to htc for repair, if u have warranty left. But what u found on ebay is correct, digitizer is right, u get the screen and the connecting part aswell, to connect to the inside of the phone. Theres vids on youtube on how to change them if u do it urself

Also can you suggest some kernels that won't put my device into a boot loop
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mharckk:
here's the thing seems you dont want ka11 why dont u use ka10.2 :) they say its more stable, and then install advanced ics stock kernel or xsx kernel,so u wont get bootloop,

theres also the stable version of cm9 its out now,

you should try different roms so that you can tell whats fits for you,

theres also mooded version and miui rom available, just go ahead and try it all, and choose which fits you best :)

goodluck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arisenhavok91:
I see a ton of posts about restoring your IMEI if you have it backed up, but here's my real question:

How do I prevent the rom I'm making from wiping it in the first place? The updater-script and update.sh is the same as the ones I was using in my previous rom, that is working properly.

Any ideas? Anyone know what causes the wipe?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
It only gets wiped when you are switching from a Samsung (BML) to an AOSP (MTD) ROM. This is because all of the partitions are wiped and re-set up for the new filesystem. There is no way to avoid this. However, efs is never wiped otherwise. Going from an AOSP ROM to another AOSP ROM will not cause the wipe.

Hello everyone,

I finally managed to make rooted kernel for Xperia Go (ST27i).

I just want to mention, that I have unlocked bootloader and I didn't try is this kernel working with locked bootloader.

Requirements:

stock Sony 6.0.B.3.162 FW

unlocked bootloader

working fastboot

How to Flash:

download the rooted_kernel_ST27i.elf (sendspace.com/file/74xilq)

save it in the folder with fastboot binaries (fastboot.exe files)

power down device

start device in fastboot mode (hold volume up and plug cable)

and use the following commands to flash the kernel:

fastboot flash boot rooted_kernel_ST27i.elf

fastboot reboot

After restart, download and install busybox from market, and update superuser...

I can't do this without:

DooMLoRD - I used his files from rooted kernel for Xperia P

Championswimmer - for tips and tool (ANDROID KERNEL KITCHEN 0.2.2)

Bin4ry - for tips

So, thanks to them
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pajoneer:
big thanks man. i will try it. little question: when will be rooted kernel for 6.0.B.3.184 too?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aditja:
request fastboot.exe link :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lebenita:
Great job driversax, many thanks. Too bad I updated to 184 yesterday. I'll either have to wait for a corresponding kernel or I'll have to find out how to downgrade again.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Perkeleman:
Hello! Big thnx to Driversax ! Im using 184 and tried this root and it works :) no need to downgrade!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pajoneer:
I test it and this kernel has big baterry drain!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] driversax:
I use this kernel for 3 days, and I don't have problem with battery drain.

But I will check when I get back from vacation (4 days) and also I will try to make new rooted kernel for firmware 184 and maybe recovery :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lebenita:
I confirm that you can install it over 184. Two caveats however:

- User data is wiped (I was under the assumption that a kernel flash keeps user data - is this generally not the case or only in this instance?)

- In About phone, the reported build stays at 184, but the phone offers to update over the air to 184 again, and after downloading, installing and rebooting, it complains that installation was unsuccessful. You cannot even remove the notification, it stays permanently in the status bar. I finally got rid of them by disabling the updater – thanks Driversax, finally I have root powers – and rebooting.

Battery life has been normal (or even better than previously) for me (using it less than 24 hours though).

---------- Post added at 06:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 AM ----------

Oh, and one more thing:

Droidwall doesn't work (iptables doesn't seem to be implemented on the Go - apparently not the oply Sony phone with this problem, although Xperia S is reported to have it). This was the prime reason for me to root the phone, so it's quite a bummer. But at least Titanium Backup works, and I can get rid of the bloatware (although, to Sony's credit, there are no overly intrusive or battery-draining apps).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pajoneer:

SD card problem

I've just flashed a factory 184 firmware first and then flashed the 184 rooted kernel. It all went fine, but the system doesn't mount sd cards any more. I'll try reflashing the stock 184 to see if it works there, and maybe flashing the rooted 162 kernel again which I know worked perfectly when flashed over a stock 184.

Could you repost the link to the rooted 162 please, driversax?
