[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrAdama:
In my experience, all AMOLED screens have had some kind of issue. The Note 1 had these burnt-in/darkened vertical and horizontal lines all over the screen mostly noticeable at low screen brightness, OUT OF THE BOX. I exchanged it many times and they were all the same (different patterns of course) until I found one where the lines weren't that noticeable, but still there.. There were lots of other issues with the Note 1 but I sticked with it because the positive outweighed the negative.

All of the Note 1's I had suffered of some kind of color tint issue too. My girlfriend's S2 suffered from burn in the first month, which is only visible in low screen brightness. She doesn't care, as would I presume a lot of people don't.

Another thing I've noticed with AMOLED screens is that there seems to be what looks like some kind of grainy filter over the screen. It might be the glass but you can see like very small and faint dots all over the screen, if you have extremely good eyesight. It's barely noticeable and not something that bothers me though.

I now have the Galaxy Note 2 and the screen is amazing, no color tint issue as of yet and it displays dark colors in videos much better than the Note 1... But unfortunately I've noticed these burnt-in vertical and horizontal lines at low screen brightness again on this over 1 week old device. Luckily not as bad as on the Note 1. I read around on the internet and these issues with AMOLED screens looks to be very common. Guess this is something I can't escape from with AMOLED screens, will just have to get used to it.

And to the people who say they have perfect AMOLED screens. I don't claim to have the facts on all AMOLED screens but I think that kind of statement is more subjective than factual. I can't have had the bad luck to receive several devices with AMOLED screen defects, some very noticeable and some not... I just think some people don't notice the issues hence, they have no issue with the screen.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SAlmighty:
@SrAdama, can you please tell me where is your Galaxy Note 2 made in? You can find this information by removing the battery and looking at the white sticker affixed to back of your phone. Please let me know. Thank you.

Edit: Also, please tell me when you purchased your Note 2, thanks again.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrAdama:
Sure, it says "made by samsung" on the sticker, so I'm not sure what that means.. On the battery it says "cell made in Korea, assembled in Vietnam". So maybe in Vietnam? I received it about 12 days ago.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SAlmighty:
That explains! I never found such lines on a Made in Korea unit; not even on a China unit. I went through dozens of Galaxy Notes Made In Vietnam and found the lines were very visible.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrAdama:
All of the Note 1's I had with those lines were made in Korea.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
Not true! Mine was made in Vietnam and I have no screen problems apart from the slight blue tint when viewing the screen at angles which I have experienced with all amoled screens.

It's luck of the draw what 'type' of amoled screen you get. Not what country it was made/assembled in.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SAlmighty:
Is your screen at the lowest brightness when you checked?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
Yes. I also tend to use it at a very low brightness most of the time as well. I'm very ocd about my displays (swapped my ipad 3 three times due to dust and dead pixels).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dskmat:
Easy on the eyes

As someone who has suffered migraines for 25 years. I find AMOLED screens dont seem to strain my eyes. Unlike almost every other LCD screen out there.including the ipads Retina displays.

I am addict to my gadgets and since the SII I'm addicted to the AMOLED screen. The Note 2's screen is amazing. Loving it
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrAdama:
Dammit... today I noticed a small scratch on the screen. Luckily it's only visible when the screen is turned off and from a certain angle. I've been super careful with my phone and have used a flip case since day one. Made sure there were nothing on the screen or the soft cover each time I closed the flip cover.. The only possible explanation is that the s-pen scratched the screen. In other words, a piece of plastic scratched gorilla glass.... :good:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SAlmighty:
screen protector is required on these expensive phones
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrAdama:
Shouldn't have to buy screen protectors if you take care of your phone real carefully like I did and using a flip case, Plastic shouldn't really scratch gorilla glass, an accessory meant to be used on the screen of the Note 2 shouldn't scratch the screen.

Did order some screen protectors anyway... Gorilla glass, what a joke...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pedp4000:
Hey Guys,

I've been trying over the last month to update to the new JB update and I think I've tried everything... I'm rooted, but I don't believe I'm unlocked (bought this 2nd hand back in March).

I'm currently on the IML74K.US_epad-9.4.2.28-20120525 build number. So I'm assuming I'm on the U.S. SKU (bought it in Canada).

Here's what I've tried based on posts:

1) Factory Reset, restore default build.prop and try firmware update via OTA.

No Luck

2) download update from Asus website unpack and put onto external SD card. Click update, the tablet resets, the Android guy shows up and eventually he goes dead (red exclamation). On reboot it says I downloaded the wrong version of the update package or something.

Anything else I should try?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrizt4adam:
Ran stock, that was super laggy; then switched to CM9 then CM10 which has been great. As I understand it TeamHacksung will probably not support the IR Blaster. I looked into the JB leak for GT-P5113 but that does not seem to have working IR either (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1881218).

What is the best ROM with IR Blaster support?

Looking to replace my Harmony One + Lenovo N5902 with TouchSquid + XBMC Remote (going to RaspberryPi).

Searched the forums didn't see any suggestions (other than Tab2Lite)

Tired of waiting for JB OTA

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oddball101:
I've been searching for info on this as well and it seems there isn't a whole lot of interest as of yet on the developer side to get the IR blaster operational. Sucks because I love the responsiveness of my 5113 on cm10.1. It seems better all around than ICS, even enabling usb charging, but the IR blaster is definitely useful so I look forward to seeing further updates.

really hope it's addressed soon

I have a i9300, with Optus in Australia. I just recently updated to their latest update (IMM76D) and it seems I have lost the typing assists. It no longer adds a space after selecting a suggested word or removes the space after the addition of a punctuation mark, such as a question mark.

Is there any way to fix this with the stock keyboard?

Also, there is now a brightness toggle in the notification menu, how does one remove that?

I'm thinking of this one because its size is the same as the OEM battery and I don't wanna have to get a new battery door.

Battery fits oem door. On my first charge so i cant comment on battery life.

Shipping takes about a week and a half. They ship from china!

for the price, i would say no

its better to get the oem samsung battery.

its cheaper i think

slighly smaller capacity

but at least its made by samsung and can be more trusted

just my $0.02

Bad resource. I'm using Mugen Power for 2 years already and cannot imagine an Android phone without their battery.

The 2300mAh is more of a replacement battery, because it only adds 200mAh, but if you really need power, I'd go for their 4600mAh battery.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rlatjs17:
Looks interesting. It doesn't seem like its false information but maybe they decided on making better quality for the S3 batteries. I'll be receiving the 4600mAH Mugen battery soon and I'll have bench mark comparisons against the Hyperion, Anker, QCell, and Seidio. Hopefully it turns out ok for the price Mugen's charging us.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Spidey01:
For the price it's just better to get one of the extended batteries /w door off Amazon. They're cheap and juice filled.

I'm using the OEM, because I don't want a huge-mungo thickness out of my thin phone and the battery services me well enough.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Stephen1125:
I wouldn't spend that much. I bought two Qcell batteries and a charger on Amazon for $25. They advertise 2300mah. Not sure if it's truly 2300 but it last just as long if not a tiny bit longer than my stock battery. They also have NFC built in. Individually the Qcell batteries are $10, so you could have 3 spare batteries and a charger for less than the price of one mugen battery.

I've been using the Qcells for about 2 months now. I havnt had any issues with them and NFC works great.

Hi XDA!

I know the forum is mostly aimed at mobile dev but the people here are so good i thought it the best place to ask a question regarding dev in general.

I have a database (mySQL) with rows that contain latitude/longitude values representing the locations of customer complaints. I'd like to plot these on Google Maps / Earth and put up a dashboard so that we can see if there's any particular location that's a 'pain point'... any idea how to do this? I need the plotting step to be completely automated cos I already know how to automatically insert new rows into the mySQL table whenever a new complaint comes in.

I've done some Googling and i usually see people talking about manually importing an Excel file with the co-ordinates... This won't work for me cos we get thousands of calls coming in daily and the whole process needs to be completely automated for it to be practically feasible.

Ok, some background about me: I'm not a 'proper' developer... I've never worked in a structured dev environment. I'm just someone who knows a little bit about dev and I've had to write some code cos there was nobody else to do it

I can do some mid-level Java (I've written a few servlets that run on tomcat ...they listen for HTTP requests and respond with some XML... nothing hectic) and I know enough about mySQL to be able to work with it comfortably.

I'd really appreciate any help with my plotting question

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Sycobob:
WTH is 'stock CM9'?

Anyway, since instructions for flashing ROMs isn't pasted in a dozen different places like it is on most other subforums, I'll throw you a bone. Yes, you should probably do a data wipe or factory reset (in addition to wiping cache and dalvik if those don't get wiped during one of the previous wipes). In theory, the wiping can be done by the zip you're flashing, but it's not always the case so just do it yourself to be safe. Also, having just done one, I can tell you a factory reset (in CWM 6.0.0.8 at least) doesn't wipe your sdcard.
