I saw light bleed as soon as I turned my N10, but that's not the reason I just called to return it -- it was the uneven brightness. The top 1/2 inch of the screen is noticeably darker than the rest of it -- not visible when watching a movie or playing games, but very distracting when surfing and reading books, especially in portrait mode.

Since I haven't seen anyone else complain about this issue, I'm hopeful the replacement will be better.
[Nexus 10 General] JPW1:
Yep, I completely agree with one of the previous posters, this is definetly a black level issue. I put the iPad with a Retina Display right against a Nexus 10 both playing the same 1080i MKV. The iPad clearly won.

I still like the Nexus 10 a lot and I find it very comfortable to use because of how thin it is and how light it is, but to improve the product I think Google missed it some here. They could lowered the resolution considerably (1920 x 1080 is more than fine), improved on black level, and used the same processor. The lower resolution would have allowed that processor to scream since it wouldn't have been as taxed to interpolate so many pixels.

I don't know if it is a software issue or not, but if it is I really hope Google releases a fix. If there was a way to adjust Gamma or Contrast it might help considerably.
[Nexus 10 General] BarryH_GEG:
There's no way on earth text (or other computer generated content like the UI and icons) will look better on a 147PPI display (Prime) vs. 224PPI (TF700) or 300PPI (N10). The reason is as 404 Error did a great job of explaining is that text is a 1:1 match pixel wise; the more pixels the sharper the image. Photos and videos display even the clearest content over multiple pixels so the advantage of a higher PPI becomes less pronounced. And the human eye (even yours) can't resolve sharpness over 229PPI beyond 15". So, your 20/20 eyes are decieving you. The N10 has less contrast and isn't as bright as older displays so that might be what you're reacting to.

Hi could someone explain what is going on with the SD card mount points in CM10

I'm not exactly a noob (reading xda threads since first nightly of cm7) but would like some deeper understanding of what exactly is happening and why.

I know i can change the sd mount points like so:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33253737

but then for example swiftkey doesn't work because it complains about missing sdcard

but i would like to know why CM10 handles it that way and if i should swap the mount points after every rom install.

I am having problems with the latest Google Search App updates since Dec 5th (or so). The last version that I have working is 2.1.12.516912. I was hoping there would be another update to fix the issues but the update today, 2.2.10.546669, is the same. I have a Wingray Xoom running the last 4.1.2 EOS Nightly (155).

Hi, I have plan to buy a new lumia 920 but I dont really know it is good or not. After few days of researching on internet, I found out some people have the same problem with lumia 920 battery. It drains too quickly, site : http://360dmobile.com/lumia-920-has-problem-of-battery-with-apps-like-cnn-board-express/ talked about this. I wonder is it common ?, for me it's really big problem
[Nokia Lumia 920] schettj:
most people figure out how to use the phone within a few days, and have good battery life. There is some issue with WP8 which is supposed to be resolved with an update to fix whatever cases the random battery drain that can happen - if you run into that a soft reboot also fixes it (seems like some process gets stuck running...)

I'm coming from an HTC Titan... it's not much different than that battery life wise.
[Nokia Lumia 920] shumilica:
I don't have any battery drain problem. Today Nokia updated Nokia Drive beta, in which it stated the following:

"Battery Saver mode: Turns off GPS after the app is sent to background (except when in guidance mode)"

Maybe the guys who had experienced battery issues had been using Drive Beta and the gps didn't turn off after puting the app in background..

I used to have Nokia 900 sometime back before switching to One X, in the 900, when we press the back button there is a haptic feedback, do we have the same haptic feedback in the 920 as well?

if yes, this small vibration would also amount to the battery drain to an extent right?

I am asking because 920 is compelling and I want to buy one even though my contract is expiring in 2014.

For me, Nokia 920 was a no brainer for one important reason - Nokia apps. Nokia has very good apps that are exclusive to its phones and they have full support for those apps with very regular updates. Take this into account when getting a phone.

This is gonna sound strange but it's actually happening.

I plug my phone into an FM receiver to broadcast my Spotify to my car radio; I plug it from the headphone jack of my S3 to the input of the FM transmitter.

All has been well until the latest JB update, now when I plug it in...I only get one channel of the stereo channel...except if I plug the AC into the S3 then it's fine.

I can do it back and forth...it's definitely happening...I'm not dreaming it.

I've checked to make sure that it's not just a case of a "not all the way plugged in plug" in the HF jack...it's gotta be software related.

I'm running the stock-but-rooted JB release.

Hey all--

I'm about to pick up a note for my wife to use (buying it on craigslist).

Just wondering if people had thoughts on this issue re: this device:

Particularly with the S-pen, and the 'note' features, should I stick to Stock-based-ROMs, or does CM-10, etc... play nice with these things?

Thanks! Really interested in your opinions....(I'm usually an AOSP guy, but this is for my wife...)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
It depends on if she is going to appreciate AOSP and learn enough about it to solve issues on her own. I had a frustrating experience when I rooted and put a custom launcher on my gf's Nook. I thought that having access to numerous free apps via the Play store would thrill her since nearly every app in the Nook world isn't free. Instead I got a bunch of gripes and complaints when little things didn't work... troubleshooting a device that wasn't mine for the sake of functionality she never used was no fun. She never DL'd anything!... Play or Nook store. She was happy just reading books, mags, and internet. I put that thing back to stock and we both couldn't be happier.

Some of the Spen features are lost on Cyanogen and AOSP ROMs. Do you think your wife would appreciate CM10 and its benefits against the lack of some basic Note features and stock ROM reliability? Are you prepared to flash nightlies on her phone every other day? I don't think CM10 is at a point where you can just flash it and forget it...

This was exactly the sort of answer I was looking for.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ChronoReverse:
One thing I do is use Papyrus (standard app) instead of S-Note (Samsung app) for taking notes. This way, when I switch between AOSP and TW ROMs, my note-taking doesn't suffer.

Other than that, I don't have too much problems switching between the types.

I have just managed to successfully get SkyGo working on the Nexus 10 despite it not being on the compatibility list. It's a bit of a faff but it works.

1) Flash back to stock rom if not already

2) Flash Clockwork Recovery and flash the SU Binary for Root Access.

3) Flash back to Stock Recovery (not essential but needed for OTA updates).

4) Download DeviceSpoofer from the PlayStore and change your device to a compatible SkyGo one (I selected the Galaxy Nexus).

5) After device has been spoofed reboot and then go into the SuperSU app. Under settings select Full Unroot and reboot.

6) SkyGo will now appear in the PlayStore and works a treat!

Enjoy.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lsauer:
I hate devices which only fulfill only one small task and barely manage to hold the attention of the buyer for a few days. For that reason I bought the N7000 in the first place. It occurred to me early on, in light of the Oculus Rift news floating around, that the N7000 would make for an ideal 3D experience when using the same optics and fisheye-software distortion as the Oculus Rift HMD. I tried a lot of 3D SBS, etc... to get a 3D experience out of the small display only to ultimately realize that the "magic" of the Oculus is ultimately the combination of its lenses and software-wise lens-distortion in 3D SBS (side by side) mode. Despite sounding haphazard, journalist feedback has been exceptional - even in the project's early stages.

A few points should be considered. The screen size and 16:10 ratio are about the same as the initial Oculus Rift design.

- the AMOLED technology is superior as there is no backlight bleeding and better contrast

- The Note already brings enough sensors for precise headtracking.

- Infrastructure in terms of hardware and software is far superior on the Note

- Wireless Gaming, heck even remote gaming is possible instantly!

- Just slide it out of your 3D goggles and the Note is ready again to meet your mobile phone and tablet needs

All that is needed are the ski-mask like goggles. Just try to hold the screen up close in total darkness and over time one can experience an theater like sensation. Although the realization that your hands are pretty much only inches away holding your Note up in front of your face limits that theater experience.

Project Oculus:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1523379957/oculus-rift-step-into-the-game/posts/357600

Basically this thread is about raising awareness and interest in developing an Samsung Note based Oculus Rift, - ideally by the same manufacturers or in fact any Chinese Company with sufficient expertise.

Who else would be interested? Every voice counts!

What are your thoughts on the matter?

I for one would like the same superior 3D experience that the "Oculus Rift" promises (-just read the hands-on previews-), but with the latest tech which the 21st century offers! (And miracast streaming is only inches away.)

[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
I have extracted some of the notification and ringtones that I like from other JB builds to use in CNA 3.6.6 and placed them in system/media/audio/notifications or system/media/audio/ringtones as appropriate. I have also set permissions to rw-r--r-- on the files I added.

My question is what else do I need to do so they show up on the list where I actually choose what tone I want to use. The only ones that are visible on the list are the ones that came standard with CNA 3.6.6.

All files are in ogg format and after doing the above steps they do not stick after a reboot. What has happened is after reboot they are not listed or, if they are, they will dissappear. I discovered this after setting them and then missing calls after a while. When this happened I checked in the sound settings and the tone listed was either "unkown" or a number was there instead of the tone I selected. This happens with apps that are part of the ROM and with third party apps. This issue does not happen if I stick with the stock choices. I also did not experience this with Froyo or GB builds, only with ICS and JB.

Thanks
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Make a 'Notifications' and 'Ringtones' folder on the root of your SD card. Place the files there, reboot.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
That is where I moved them from for the same reason. I was thinking having them in /system/media/audio/notifications or /ringtones would fix it. I'll give it a shot and see.
[Motorola Photon 4G] T3HG00GLEG33K:
Thought id just throw it out there as a last resort. Third party apps sometimes will do the trick. Been using this one for some time now. Give it a go if need be and see if it helps.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
I did this ^^^ and put the tones back on the SD card as Acvice suggested and it is working fine again. Thanks for the suggestions!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
For those who are curious, I found a better fix for this.

I have bounced around a little recently (CM7, AOKP, Liquid Smooth) and I came back to CNA 3.6.6. Well, I had to copy and paste some ringtones and notification tones into the ROM again so I could have the ones I really like.

So, I did the following:

Copy and paste the ones I wanted into /system/media/audio/notifications or system/media//audio/ringtones as needed.

Change permissions to rw-r--r--

Now, at this point they did not show up in the list when I went to choose them until after reboot. BUT, would disappear and reappear at random. When they disappeared my phone would not ring audibly because it "lost" the associated ringtone or notification tone.

So, I place them in the root of the sd card and I could choose them from there. But doing this had problems, too. If you connect to a pc the sd card would not be accessible by the phone. So what happens? The phone doesn't ring audibly because it "lost" the association to the ringtone on the sd card and I would have to go into settings and choose it again. It was getting to be a headache.

This time, I made a discovery. Using root explorer, I changed ownership on the newly transplanted ringtones. The new setting is as follows:

Owner: 0-root

Group: 0-root.

The old setting were system 1015 and sd card. Under the new ownership everything works perfect so far. I can connect to pc via usb, reboot, or whatever and the assigned sound setting stays put.

Hope this helps anyone who has had the sane issue!
