This is the standalone apps task manager that I installed.

Both shows a different usage. Which one should I trust? The system? Or the third app?

I want to install supercharger but I saw the system ram is quite good even I haven't installed the v6 script. But I saw In the task manager I installed, it shows a lot RAM usage. So I'm confused with it.

Why does the one s not have a huge dev support? Don't get me wrong the devs for the one s are awesome and ROMs are giid but just saw gs3 are dang they have devs
[HTC One S] ickedmel:
I think It's because of HTC. With all the different variant versions of one S all the different h boots. I dunno man I truly belive my next cell phone will be Samsung. I've always wanted to try it out but didn't like the phone design. The galaxy 3 and note 2 are the first Samsung phones that actually caught my eye. I guess we will see what's in the future line up. I had the HTC amaze and sensation. HTC failed the Amaze as well. Oh well.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I first found this forum when I got my SGSII and read about the yellow tint issue, bad colour banding etc. It drove me insane the first month because I couldn't get over it. I eventually got over it after some time due to it getting "old".

I hoped my Note II would have a good screen but it seems the tint can be found in all AMOLED screens. It was easy to notice the yellow tint in my SGSII but it was very weak compared to others so I were happy. On my Note II you can notice it (I think) if you concentrate really hard and it saddens me. You also have the weak lines (colour banding?).

So, how do you feel about this? Is it something you can get over and just accept that Samsung make worse screens but with awesome hardware? The reason I stick with Samsung is because I love them and I wouldn't want to choose another brand. But still, it hurts me when I realized that Note II still has these issues. I understand all manufacturers has their problems but we're in 2012, is it impossible to create a screen that is "perfect"?

Please no "I don't have this problem, my screen is perfect". We all know everyone's phone have some kind of this issue. Is it a issue or is it something you have to accept?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deusdies:
I don't have this problem, my screen is perfect. I'm saying this because it is. I don't see any tint or anything.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
For me the screen is georgious. I like it very much, the screen doesn`t have that flickering sometimes the Note1 had. The colours are vivid, full and the screentones are custimizable.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
It is indeed awesome, but the issue is still there. I don't like to have brightness on because of possible burn in, I keep it at 0%.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Livebyte:
Is it true the Note II screen is brighter than Note 1?

I didn't have a chance to compare.

On the other hand, Note 1 colours are definitely more vivid and more awesomelicious!

And mine after 6 months, have a strong yellowish tint together with a burnt screen.

I'm not impressed with AMOLED's longevity.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
My own Note II aren't very strong in brightness but others might be. My SGSII definitely have stronger brightness! My SGSII didn't have any burn in, maybe due to the fact that I keep the brightness at 0%. To scared for anything else hah.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hell Guardian:
I think mod really have to see a solution of your random rant on this section all you do is saying bad things about the note, I'm really sorry that you had bad experience with your note 2 but no one is forcing you to keep using it, get over it and stop trolling for god sake...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I doubt his screen is perfect, I asked nicely for no such posts because we all know it's not true.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaladOA:
AMOLED is juvenile technology. It's definitely not ready for public use. Pentile displays look horrible, even at a higher resolution, burn in occurs incredibly quickly and colours are over saturated to disguise the quality. Personally haven't seen the colour banding myself but enough people report it to make it a real issue.

AMOLED is the way forward, but it is not ready for everyday use. Samsung need to put their heads together and get production rates sorted out. Only when they can start churning out RGB displays that are correctly calibrated and don't suffer from burn in or tinting after a year can they really consider AMOLED suitable for mainstream consumption.

Yes. I am complaining about Note 1. I'm glad they solved the issues in Note II. I saw my friend's Note II a while ago. Indeed they solved most of the issues.

IM IMPRESSED.

But I still suspect longevity is an issue.

EDIT: BLUE TINT.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
Won't it be possible to tune the colour of the screen when roms become more developed?

My SGS used to have a yellow tint too. Increasing the blue in the built in colour tuning app changed it to pure white.

I think a while ago I remember reading someone using an app from the play store to tweak the colour of their SGS 2 screen too. I'll try & find it.

---------- Post added at 09:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 AM ----------

Here it is. It's called screen adjuster.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netmanslab.sa

Try increasing the blue or lower the red & green and see if that gets rid of your yellow tint. You have to be rooted.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] programatix:
Well, I have to agree that Note has "burned mark" stain like on the screen. Mine was the first batch for Malaysia. I also noticed the same stain like effect on the Samsung's Technician's Note. But I have no problem asking Samsung to change the display for me. After replaced, there is no problem with it for about a year now. Could it be that the first batch of display have such problem?

For Note II, it's crystal clear. No stain mark. I suggest that anyone who is not satisfied with the screen should either exchange the phone or have the display replaced.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ariozo:
Guess some had unlucky screens, but i really like the Note2 screen. And I got one white and one grey, both have np with tints, flicker or bad colors.

But i am not the one to speak after years off use tho, as I change mobile quite often. But Note i use longer then I usually use any mobile as the functions and Spen on note is hard to find on other devices.

After using the original Note for over 8 months I had no issues with its screen at all except for the very light black clipping under very specifc conditions,.And now almost after one month with my Note II, I can confidently say that this is the best screen I have ever had,no yellow or black issues,so the OP either has a faulty unit or he is a troll.

There is not a single AMOLED screen which is problem free. Be it tint or any other thing. It's quite true that people who are saying my screen is 'perfect' either don't know what a perfect screen is or simply lying.

And yes, my Note 2 screen has Yellowish tint, but it's on a much lower level than my S2 and spreaded all over the display unlike S2's only left side area. So I'm more or less happy with it. This is my 5th OLED displayed phone and NONE was perfect, NONE. Only which was my favorite and near perfect was Wave S8500 screen.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoney73:
Trolling again? For someone without the note 2, you sure spend a lot of time whining about it.

If people arent happy with it, they should get it replaced or sell and move on.

We have two n7100's in the house. Both are fine.

Note I didnt say perfect because its very rare that something is perfect. But we arent going to stare at the screen from 2mm away checking every pixel.

And everything will have a flaw in someone elses eyes.

So going by the op's logic, anyone that says otherwise is a liar?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Livebyte:
Furthermore Im mot really happy if someone has to tell me to lower down my brightness. Its unacceptable. AMOLED's are what I call still in the beta stage. Its not ready for primetime.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prinzhernan:
To be honest my screen has no tinting like what the op said.

Also, I don't get why people don't use it at a normal brightness level. If it burns in then have it replaced while it's under warranty. That's what I did with the s2.

Opinions aren't trolling. So what if he doesn't have a Note? Does that instantly mean that he is banned from having opinions about it?

And again, this 'don't like, don't use' mentality.

You yourself said that no device is perfect, but do you really expect people to just shut up about their problems?

If that happens, Samsung will just ignore the issue (which IS there - I owned a Note, I know).

Thing is, Note 2 is pretty much the best Android device on the market - even if I were to follow your advice, what would I replace it with?

And ignoring the problem doesn't make it go away - which is why OP called people who said that their Note was perfect liars.

Did anyone notice flickering, like on good old CRT. Got a Note I (got stolen) bought a Note 2 and I can see a quite heavy flickering, like if the display had a 60Hz refresh rate, never notice such a thing with the Note I.

I purchased the white note 2 and it was dull and poor quality . I swapped it for the grey and the grey is bright , whites are perfect and its just perfect

In not sure if I was just unlucky with the white I had or its the white bezel which causes the difference but im now very happy with my grey note 2

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
To people asking why I'm not replacing or selling it. I'm extremely happy with my Note II but this was merely a discussion and I wanted to share some concerns and get other opinions on why Samsung can't make a good screens.

Luckily there are people on XDA who can see faults and not only hardcore fanboys ;). As I stated, I love Samsung but even I can see their faults and not deny them to death.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
My SGS has screen burns, my previous SGS2 was perfect but developed screen burns after 11 months, the 2 SGS3s I had for testing had black crushing and strong blue tinting. The Note 2 that I've got for testing had slight yellow tint but no other issues.

I've had all the Samsung phones near enough and all of them had some form of issue.

My sisters SGS2 had banding. However her HTC One S is fairing well so far which also has an AMOLED display.

My HTC One X is perfect no tinting whites are white, less over saturation, true RGB, but as always blacks are not as deep.

In summary SLCD2/IPS at the moment is very good if you don't need the blacks and contrast and such. Brightness is excellent, viewing angle are great, gamut is good etc.

SLCD3 will be really good as well with 1080p and such.

AMOLED is the future but Samsung need to release a proper RGB matrix for it.

I like both screens both have their advantages and disadvantages.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TML1504:
some people are sensible about tinting, some seem to simply not notice it due to a lack of comparison...

so far I had 4 note2 devices, every one had tinting to some extenent, 2 of them were really bad.

trust me, i exchanged my note1 more than ten times until i got a really good screen (no dead sub-pixel, no blue or yellow tint when tilting the device)!

only because one thinks his screen is perfect says nothing, except that HE is happy!

amoleds differ massively due to its production process, the more from the middle of the wafer the screen has been cut out the better the screen is, fact!

also a thing to consider:

the coatings also have their impact on terms of tilting color stability!

search for my other postings regarding this, i've written quite a lot obit this!

btw.: my cherry picked note1 screen is much better then my actual note2 screen. i will start my swapping orgy again when the 64GB note2 it's out... ;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jujuburi:
@nikzDHD: 100% correct.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
The screens may differ massively. But don't forget amoled screens colour can be tweaked massively too. By using rgb sliders, gamma tweaks, etc.

My friends SGS2 used to have better colours and look alot nicer than my old SGS screen. I later discovered you can change the colour values, so I set it up to look perfect. My SGS looks better than the SGS2 screen now!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spidermoon:
I have a Samsung EX1 camera since 2 years now, with pentile AMOLED display. And no problems with it.

On Note II you can tweak color, from very saturated to much more natural. The only annoyance is that display is too bright at night and white became greyish at low intensity. I haven't seen color banding on photo, vidéo, only on some 256 colors game.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandyKaoss:
Got my Note 2 yesterday. The display is 100% pure awesomeness. I turned down the colour saturation a notch and everything looks great. HD videos look spectacular.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rj3005:
Amoled, although not perfect is IMO the best display technology for mobile devices.

Color gamut of LCD screens are far to limited and blacks are still grey.

Samsung typically over saturate colors as most people actually prefer it (just like that the over saturated kodak color gold foto film was extremely popular in the days of analog photography) most people also have there tv sets set to too much color and complain that "movie mode" looks dull.

If you don't want over saturated colors you can set the display mode to natural on the note2.

The only thing that Samsung keeps forgetting to give us is a way to adjust color balance and the ability to fine tune the gamma curves (like you can on any decent tv and monitor)

The color balance can be tweaked with apps ( eg color adjuster) for the curves I haven't found a solution yet unfortunately.

"Burn in" (actually uneven aging) much like plasma screens this can happen... ESPECIALLY in the first couple of hundreds hours of screen on time. (Leds in general, thus amoled as well, can loose up to 20% of their initial brightness in the first 1000 hours, degradation after that is much more gradually and therefore burn in is much less likely after this period. Keeping your brightness down only enlarges the initial phase. What does help to avoid burn in is hiding your status bar, using a life wallpaper instead if a static one and don't leave your phone screen on with the same screen content all the time.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suicidal Chicken:
The Note 2 uses RGB and not pentile display. It's a customisation to different RGB's in the sense that the blur pixels are bigger and darker. This enhancew the longitivity and reduces 'burn in' by a great degree.

All of my computer monitors, TV'S (Incl LCD / LED ) have been calibrated by me. I'm a sucker for pixel perfect displays (That includes colours.)

On my Galaxy S2, I noticed there was a blue tint which reduced over time. It was far more noticeable when I ran AOSP roms such as Cyanogenmod.

Now, the Galaxy Note 2 screen, I haven't noticed any issues UNLESS I have it on a low brightness setting. I usually have it on Auto, however It's over 30% at all times.

I agree that the Amoleds have a lot of work to be done on, but the Note 2 is miles ahead in terms of advancements. What is a shame though, is that it's quite a low PPI, however you can't have your cake and eat it too.

This is my opinion, so please respect that much like I've respected yours. Our eyes are different, so what may be great to me, may be poor to you - remember that, there is no 'Ultimate display.' It all comes down to you.

That's not quite true anymore. The iPhone 5 colours look quite vibrant and the blacks are rather deep. The One X blacks are pretty good though colour accuracy isn't as good as the iPhone 5. I love AMOLED colours but Samsung really needs to start calibrating their displays correctly or at least allow us to do it ourselves somehow.

It's all anecdotal but my several months old Galaxy S III has turned noticeably greener as its blue subpixels have begun to burn out while my Galaxy Nexus just a bit older has turned out grainy with noticeable burn-in. I'm hoping my N7100 doesn't turn out that way because it looks great as it is.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trellva25:
I have to somewhat agree with the OP...my note 2 has the best screen out of all the amoleds i have owned so far, but its far from perfect. one thing that i notice with amoled screens is how good they appear largely depends on the brightness level used. On the highest brightness levels, say 70% and above they look perfect, the whites are white and the colors pop. 50% brightness is still good, but the whites begin to show a bit of tint...in my opinion its at low brightness levels that amoleds start to suffer at levels below 10% a lot of problems with amoleds become apparent such as tints, uneven whites etc.

Since i use my note 2 a lot at night in dimly lit rooms a lot, my brightness level is always below 10%, hence i will not consider my screen perfect due to low brightness issues with amoled...ALL amoleds suffer at low brightness levels.

Yes, I feel the same. My doctor said that this can be harmful for my eyes. SGS2 and note 1 does not flicker. But note2 has absolutely bad screen.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Register_:
Turn off the "Energy saving" it force a low refresh rate to save power, thus the flickering.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guglez:
No, the problem is not with energy saving or with FPS rate. The problem is with algorithm which is used to adjust screen brightness. As far as I know there are at least 2 ways to control dysplay brightness. 1st - by voltage and 2nd by high-speed flickering. Usually 2nd variant can be achieved with PWM device ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation ). Here with AMOLED screen we don't have any back-light, so the low brightness can be achieved by fast switching pixels on and off. When this frequency to low (and I guess in sgs3 and sgn2 this friquency is low) this looks like old 60Hz CRT. Of course your eyes wont say thank you for this :crying:

---------- Post added at 04:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------

maximum level brightness is ridiculous in my opinion, 1/3 of the brightness is more than enough for me; too much brightness increases chances of burn in, decreased lifespan of the display, more battery consumption, heat production, and lastly eye strain, i believe samsung had a solid, logical, and obvious reason for giving owners the option to to deselect- the auto brightness feature on the note 2 and its predecessor.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guglez:
No. Old displays (sgs2 and note1) have different screen than the current generation (sgs3 and note2). Old displays does not have any flickering issues on low brightness.

So 100% brightness is the only possible way to remove flickering effect on note2/sgs3. Maybe this can be fixed later with software update, but regarding to sgs3 samsung is not going to do that.

I think if you need to go out of your way to find a screen "defect" the it really isn't a defect at all worth worrying about. Nobody is immune from these defects, even apple who are known to pay a premium for lcd panels from manufacturing companies get duds (light bleed from LG). Not a big issue unless you run the screen in a certain way which isn't normal.
