[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -]Megacharge[-:
I had a Galaxy S1 for a almost 2 years and had burn in. I also had an S2 for a year and a half and it also had burn in. If you like to keep your brightness up at realistic levels, it's not a matter of if, but when. How noticeable it will be will depend on you. My GF's S2 has burn in but she didn't notice it until I pointed it out to her on a white background. It appeared as a light blue line where the notification bar is. On blue backgrounds, we can see all the notification bar info, like battery meter, time, wifi icon etc.

My jaw just hit the floor! Is it dreafully slow? I have no patience for slow devices!

Does anybody else have info about burn-in on the Samsung AMOLED screens? I thought that was a thing of the past?!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiLockOn:
it was a thing of the last on plasma screens, which share a similar fate as amoled panels.if you're planning on keeping the phone that long I would suggest not buying something with amoled. You should find another phone with some sort of lcd display. Also a removable battery, as they tend to go bad after a year or so and changing it will be painless.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uvaman:
I suggested at least 10 my friends to buy Samsung S2 or S3. Not a single problem so far ;) On S4 we should see improved AMOLED.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warhero141:
The uneven subpixel degradation starts at the second you start using the phone. Everyone who claims they don't suffer from it hasn't noticed it just yet. The most problematic was the black statusbar actually but since Samsung made it transparant and grey it shouldn't really be noticeable anymore. Perhaps after 2 years of use maybe.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonDizzurp:
this is honestly a non-issue

unless youre keeping your screen on with the same image for HOURS, it wont matter..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PLUG313:
watch out with the sun and lights, too

it can cause some serious screen burns

this is what my SIII looked like when I bought it

because it was the last one at the store and the one on the shop windows for display

and the sticker was still on it that happened
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plznote:
No burn in on my GNex after 1.5 years at mostly max brightness.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msavic6:
The sticker didn't cause that, the company probably had that logo showing on the screen and it burned in.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -]Megacharge[-:
Incorrect, it is an issue because there are static elements of the OS like notification bar icons that eventually burn in, as well as notification bars themselves. There's a reason why they made the bar transparent on the S4, however, the info in the bar should be visible within a year and a half, especially on a blue background. It's the price to pay for this type of screen tech.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PLUG313:
it had never been turned on, it really was the sticker and the lights

any info on her usage?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nniicckkss:
I was in store at the weekend looking at S4's and there were some S3's next to them.

I'm totally new to Samsung, and to AMOLED screens, as I've only had LED up until now.

I couldn't help notice the screen burn on the S3 (I thought it was an S4 at first!), and wondered how long it would be before the S4's got like this...

The display S3's had the store mode active, so it had the same animations and advertising movies playing all of the time. There was black text on white background which seems to be what is burnt into the screen, and colour movies.

From reading this thread, I thought that it was long-term static images that caused the burn. But this was clearly animation and it still caused burn - admittedly it was the same animation cycling, but should I expect this on the S4 too?

My concern is that I've made a particular wallpaper which I use and have created a particular 'minimalistic' text clock which I like, should I be concerned about screen burn? And what about keeping the same home-screen icons in the same place, should I not modify it regularly?

All going well, I don't change my phones very often until next upgrade is due (2 years from now). I want to make sure it lasts.

Cheers for any input!

:cool:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedIronCrown:
I'm still using a Galaxy S1 that I got in October 2010 and it has no evidence of burn in. And I used it as a bedside clock for the first couple of months before I heard that AMOLED had potential burn in problems. So I'd have to say that, in my case at least, burn in is not a problem.

Can't wait for my contract to expire so I can get an S4. Stupid Canadian carriers and their 3-year contracts.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nniicckkss:
Thanks for the reply. Actually I was wondering about using it as a clock too.

3-year contracts - that's harsh! I thought our 2-year ones were bad.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mittaa:
I have had S2 for more than 2 years and a bit burn in where notification bar is located ... but absolutely nothing I notice in daily usage.

Always kept brightness low in order to save battery.

If I hadn't kept in on low brightness I'm sure this would have been a real problem :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msavic6:
Yeah we get 3 year contracts and certain providers will stack your current contract on top of a new one. Fido was offering a 14 month early upgrade, so I signed a 3 year and got a new phone, couple months later I see I have 48 months left in my contract...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pennas:
I've got some fairly obvious burn-in on my two-year-old S2. I used Poweramp a lot, with the screen always on when music was playing, and the play/ff/etc control icons are obviously burned in when you view any all-white (or very light) screen.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sadekmefti:
No screen problem with my S2 (2 years)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edyboy:
I'm sorry but I don't believe anyone who claims that they have NO burn in on their amoled screen which is more than a year in their possession. I have an S2 and it didn't take a year to have it. I can see it on low brightness on a dark room. It shows on gray black gradient especially on Pulse app when I am loading it. Most notable is the burned loading circle made by Youtube widget. Screen still looks gorgeous on max brightness. I still prefer watching movies on my S2 than any other high-end phones with LCD. Hell even with my friends HTC butterfly running 1080P (yes my s2 can plays 1080 with buttery smooth on stock player or mx player). You can run movies side by side and WOW nothing beats Amoled in terms of viewing pleasure.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nedooo:
Yup, anyone who is using AMOLED screen and saying there is no burn-in is like they are saying they can lite a candle and no wax will BUR-IN :silly:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pfeffernuss:
Correct. 100% of all Amoled screens will have burn-in/aging after a while. Same as every plasma panel. Known "part" of the used technology.

Not seeing it? Great! Saying it isn't there? False.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrewJohansen:
My gnex had awful burn in. The keyboard and icons you could see them perfect on a dark and white backgrounds.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XTCrefugee:
I should have done more research before getting an S4 :(

If I'd known this, I might have held out for an S4 Active instead.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msavic6:
I have had a nexus one and a galaxy nexus, both with AMOLED screens and the burn in I have on those devices is mild shading which is not even visible during everyday use. You have to specifaclly look for it using pure white backgrounds to find it and these devices are both really old.

I wouldn't worry about the burn in and instead enjoy your device.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gillion:
Relax.

Newer amoleds do not burn in as easily as older types.

Keeping the screen brightness moderate helps.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beefheart:
My GS2 is now over 2 years old and has no evidence of burn in. So it's not something I will worry about on my GS4.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
My HTC Desire also never burned in. It is over 3 years old and no problems... I am more annoyed by the fact that the bottom of my S4 has a slightly different tint than the rest of the phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nedooo:
Do the candle burn-in test and report after 2-3 years...of course try to actually use them (use flame source on that thin top thingy) ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Candle burn-in test?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nedooo:
Candle + flame = ???any idea???
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XTCrefugee:
Do the burn-in fix/prevention apps (the ones that display white or cycling colour screens) actually do anything, or is the improvement some people see just a placebo effect? The reviews seem to be 50/50 between people who claim they help and others who say they do nothing.

So, As the title states-

Is there anyway to increase GPU/overclock HTC salsa?

Not at this time. So if u already got chainfire in use that's your Max. There is speculation that the salsa already use an overclocked CPU already hence why we haven't got overclock available.

Just purchased mine for €560 on o2 PAYG have to get it unlocked, i was surprised to see there was no Charger with the phone, the o2 sticker on the says "there's no charger in this box, see how we're helping our planet" :-\ not a big deal I'll just use my Samsung charger but I don't recall anyone else on here saying they didn't get a charger with their phone.

Anyway finally I've got it just need to get this baby unlocked now and I'm flying :)
[One (M7) General] nightbringr:
It's an O2 thing, they've done some eco-friendly deal with htc apparently. Google if your interested.
[One (M7) General] antodeco:
That's ridiculous! What's stopping o2 from taking the charger out of the box and then reselling it as an original accessory? What would have happenend if you had come from an iPhone? Would you have had to buy a seperate charger? The mind boggles!
[One (M7) General] ste1164:
They have teamed up with HTC to do it as far as I am aware. They do sell a non HTC charger thats meant to be more eco friendly for around £7.
[One (M7) General] jonny68:
The Samsung galaxy S3 charger works ok charging now but I'll have to take off a few quid when selling my S3 without the need charger, it is a bit ridiculous, there are plenty of other ways to "save the planet"

Now to get it unlocked
[One (M7) General] Electronic Punk:
I think there was a ridiculous statistic involving filling up swimming pools with chargers that never get used.

Mine is still in the box, so there point is valid.
[One (M7) General] jonny68:
Yeah but what about people who haven't got charger, this means they have to purchase one separately, when you've just spend big money on a phone you shouldn't have to pay extra for a charger.
[One (M7) General] paddylaz:
Speeds also the crucial factor here. Haven't received my One yet but every single phone I've ever used (aside from the iphone actually) charges like a disabled tortoise doing the 100m unless it's attached to the mains.

Mod-Edit: Rephrased by moderator, as somebody felt offended by some words
[One (M7) General] Electronic Punk:
Perhaps, but we could pretend the cost of the device was cheaper because it had no charger. Although I highly doubt they would make you pay £5 for a new device with a 2 year contract just because it had the charger.

They key might be to haggle a little when you purchased, the assistant thought she was doing me a favour giving me a free One case when I got mine at Phones4U, I did then point out that this was as advertised on the website, but she didn't know that and was willing to throw a £25 case at me.
[One (M7) General] Will.1:
They have to be careful about this approach though, imagine someone getting a fancy phone like this for the first time, or someone coming from a device like the iphone with a different charger and realizing they have no charger for it ---> pretty pissed off.
[One (M7) General] jonny68:
Indeed this is true, ive got the Samsung charger so that will do but someone coming from iPhone as you said might be a tad pissed off.
[One (M7) General] Rusty!:
The iPhone mains charger will work just fine.
[One (M7) General] mouzaihem:
The iPhone uses a proprietary port/cable :confused:
[One (M7) General] luqythewise:
i think he meant use the usb cable the comes with the htc with the iPhone usb plug, which would work since the voltage sent through usb's are mostly the same. but i can see why you were confused, i myself had to re-read it a few times before my brain actually switched on

Hey guys,

So I got a problem - I can't hear a thing while calling/receiving calls and the other side of the line can't hear what I'm saying as well. The phone was taken care of and didn't crash, so that was unexpected. Feels like a software problem, because both mics don't work.

[HTC One S] The Watergod:
Hi all not too sure if I am doing this right but here goes (if not sorry).I tried to do the facepalm method a couple of times to get S-OFF with my one S (S4) I did the supercid, installed Recovery and placed a new rom on( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2065357 ) all by using the AIO tool kit from this site. All upto date versions of drivers etc. I can get as far as point 5 on the Facepalm method and first time got “FAILED (remote: 92 supercid! please flush image again immediately)” which from what i can gather is correct. I then proceeded to the next stage which I then found I had not installed SU (Now this is where have a funny feeling where it went Pete Tong on me), so i installed SU then went back to point 6 which seemed to push all the files though fine but I had no S-OFF. So I scanned through the thread and found someone else with the same problem and they fixed it by installing VIPER 2.2 rom I think this is where thing really went wrong. After the rom installed it gave black screen of death but after some faffing I got it to the dead android with the red triangle and the exclamation inside it screen abd it got stuck rebooting like that for a while. I managed (After 6 hrs+) to install a RUU 3.15 EU stock rom and started from scratch again with the original rom that I used (see link above) now I all get is the 99 error (I now have SU and rooted) so any thought (apologies for spelling and grammar I know how you like that)

Hboot version 2.15 or 2.13 (can remember which can get into bootloader if you really need it to be exact)

Recovery is TWRP 2.4.4.0

Hope you can help

thanks in advance
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
U sure the 'black screen of death' wasn't the stock recovery? That's how it looks triangle with exclamation mark inside

Can't figure out what your problem is try going onto their chat thing and asking the dev for help but before you do...

Do u flash super su in recovery or install from play store? I have a habit to flash it in recovery because a lot of the time it didn't work for me when I installed it from the play store

Also ones you super CID reboot your phone 3 times, I had a problem when after SuperCID I had no CID and jcase told me to reboot a few times then it worked
[HTC One S] The Watergod:
I think it was stock recovery but it just didn't like the Viper Rom i think when I check the CID it is 1111111 so I know that has worked and I installed SU in the recovery. Oh and was my "windows" take on the black screen of death yes it was the recovery screen but it still took 6 hrs plus to get it from that screen and back to booting normally sorry thought I made sense my bad ;)
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
Dude you don't flash a custom rom in stock recovery the stock recovery is used for flashing official ota's

Download twrp 2.3.3 (nothing higher) and flash it to the phone by going into hboot

And on computer type

Fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery. Img"

Then boot Into recovery and flash Viper

U need to read properly... Don't do it if u don't know what your doing you can very easily brick your device..
[HTC One S] The Watergod:
Sorry mate I think I either wrote it wrong or you misread somewhere I have unlocked a fair few phones I didn't flash the custom Rom through stock. After the soft brick with the viper Rom I put an ruu 3.15 on then went through all the aio tool kit from scratch again my bad for not explaining properly I am not that dumb ha ha cheers for the reply though
[HTC One S] Hunt3r.j2:
I'm pretty sure that the 99 error means you have to do a proper reboot. Turn off fastboot in the power settings, turn off the phone, turn it on again to the OS. Make sure the phone is rooted, make sure you have custom recovery. Go through the S-OFF procedure again.

Edit: ALSO WIPE YOUR CACHE IN RECOVERY!
[HTC One S] The Watergod:
Okay dokey will give it a bash cheers! :D
[HTC One S] The Watergod:
ok so the reboot worked for the 92 error code muchios gracias for that ran the S-off again still no joy but its a bit further on will not give up!
