There are apps like Google now and location services which will can cause this. Try disabling all there and use wake lock detector app from playstore to check for apps that use battery while phone not in use.

Search for deodexed stock roms around here.

There is one in deathnotice01's thread (monochromatic) by zalzondabuzz. You can ask him or.zalzondabuzz if you can use the same for making your rom. You can also deodex your stock rom yourself by using kitchen and then theme it.

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

I tried Ac!d sound mod, cm's dsp manager and volume+ in order to boost the headphones' volume (I wanna play music from the phone on my amplifier) and none of them gave a boost. Did anyone succeeded in this or it's just nonsense ?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] gamer649:
I used to use an app on my Galaxy Y called 'Speaker Boost', it seemed to work for me. I noticed an improvement in headphone and speaker volumes.

The app icon in the store is a volume dial with a 'B' on it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] grant7:
Hi,

Samsung S4 owners please help. Just received mine and everything looks good, however the screen has a red/burgundy tint on blacks in total darkness.

For testing I closed the camera lens and took picture so it's totally black, when you look at the picture in the dark it's not black and has red colos in it comparing to my Note ii and LG Optimus G.

If you have the same problem please post, so I can return it in two week period or switch for HTC ONE.

Thanks,

My screen is 100% black on darks. It looks like its completely off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] theo1998:
I have this too, it's not the OS as the screen was very very dark red when I was soft-bricked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] americasteam:
Yep, same here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] grant7:
Confirming

Just back from 2 AT&T stores to check if demo S4 has the same problem, and confirming YES the blacks in total darkness is more like super dark dark red not 100% black.

The AT&T rep confirmed and said "If you don't like it, return it".

Also I found topic that covers this problem regarding red subpixels being active when displaying black , but the international version is fixed after firmware update.

So I think only US AT&T models affected with no fix for now. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ChaseBroyles:
Another thing I found is that if I scroll really fast on a black background there's a reddish haze on the screen.

Turn your brightness all the way down, go into a dark room, open settings, and scroll really fast up and down.

Does this happen to everyone else?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] grant7:
Just checked and I don't have any haze when scrolling fast, but do have red subpixels being active when displaying black.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GiantJay:
I Have the Sprint model and also experience this problem. There are several issues I have with this phone. Lag, software glitches, keyboard issues etc. And these occur on every S4 I have used which is several, none Exynos versions though. They rushed the release is what I think. They should have fixed the issues being compained about before release.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sam2c:
There is a long thread in the international S4 forum discussing this. There are two different screen problems, either red pixels are on when displaying blacks, or you get smearing on greys/purples over blacks. Samsung just released a firmware updste for the intrnational version that gets rid of the red pixels for those who had that issue, but it makes their screen smear. So no everyone has the smearing problem with tbe international version. Hopefully they can address the smearing problem with firmware soon. I can imagine some games being affected pretty badly by this issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] grant7:
Samsung S4 AT&T Version Red subpixels on black stay on.

See attached sample image. Easy to see in total darkness when brightness all the way down, red pixels visible on any black, picture, menu, web etc.. except boot logo.

The image made in total darkness, for black sample opened 100% black background.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GiantJay:
Yep that's what mine looks like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] grant7:
AT&T Update did not resolved the red subpixels on problem.

Received update this morning from AT&T. There was a hope for a fix of the red subpixels glow, but the problem still the same after update.

Returning mine. :rolleyes:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sam2c:
Thats a shame. I was really hoping Samsung would address this sooner than later.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] eyecon82:
I also have the red subpixels on my sprint sgs4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] _Burst_:
I had this on my first S4. My GF didn't on hers. I took it back to the store and they looked at me like I was crazy (didn't argue that fact).

Rep took it to the back to show manager and pull another phone and he told me that this was common enough that they got an email about it from HQ.

New unit didn't have the problem.

Not only are blacks with a redish tint, but another way to tell if the screen has this problem is press the menu button. Then, it is easier to tell a good screen vs a messed up screen because they are clearly a different color. Easier to show them that instead of minimum brightness, in a dark room, you can see it I swear kind of argument.

I wish I would have taken a pic to post the differences.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] grant7:
Thanks for reply,

So you just went to store and replaced bad one for good one? So maybe it's a first ones with this problem? I visited 2 different stores and demo units red as well, they said that all devices they have in stock is the same shipment 60 or so units. Will try next week.

Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] antde201:
Yea, just head over to AT&T and swap it out. A display issue such as this is very rarely addressed in firmware and has to be replaced.

I replaced my unit yesterday no questions asked(kinda) as they're very aware of the myriad of issues some early devices have. Just don't use too much tech jargon like "pixels" "true black" "contrast ratio" etc. or you might get blank stares as I did lol. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] zombicidal maniac:
I have the T-Mobile version and have this also. I noticed it when I first turned it on. I had an S3 before so I know how black the AMOLED screens can get. I don't mind much since it's just when it's displaying blacks and I haven't seen it much except for boots. I think I have the smearing too but I just look at it as motion blur :silly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tonymtl:
Try turning off the auto brightness. My S4 does the same thing only when auto brightness is on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gflare:
does this happen on all models, random models, or only white/black models?

I'm curious to see if this is a potential side-effect of that semi-transparent digitizer (like the notification screen-glow thing that was mention in other threads).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Aou:
I had a similar problem on my S2 Skyrocket. I first noticed it when I changed from my Infuse 4G to the Skyrocket, because I could take my Infuse into a dark room with a pure black image on the screen, turn the brightness all the way up (no Auto), and the screen was pure black. Not so much the case with the Skyrocket.

I promptly returned my Skyrocket for the "normal" S2, and the problem was significantly less, but still present. Unfortunately, the problem seemed to get slightly worse over time, to the point where certain shades of grey would have a strange pattern to them, with splotches of "toasted marshmallow" all over.

There's some threads out there that discuss screen calibration issues. Here's one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1320942

The best app I found that gives a 100% pure black screen is this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=multitouchpro.tests&hl=en

Just tap the screen once to get the initial message to go away. IIRC it has ads, but if you have an adblock, they won't show, and you'll be left with a completely black screen. Otherwise, that thread I mentioned before has a black image to use, I think.

Now, for reference, my S4 is absolutely pure black in a pitch black room when I have a black image on the screen - even with the brightness at 100% (no-auto). It appears as if the device is powered off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] eyecon82:
you are completely wrong.

It is software based. Mine did this prior to the sprint OTA; However, afterwards, that went away and the blur issue came about

that proves its not an unfixable thing..everyone has it....its jsut a matter of noticing it.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GiantJay:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] antde201:
I think you need to reread what I stated. I said it is very rarely a firmware issue, not that it absolutely must be replaced. If it was fixed with an OTA update, that's great--but more often than not, displays with errors within the panel need to be replaced. That goes for monitors and televisions as well. Though I'm glad you all were able to get your issues addressed.
[HTC Sensation XL] hayk0987654321:
Recently my SXL's GPS stopped working. Up until about a week ago everything was perfectly fine then one morning it just stopped working. I've tried changing through 5 roms (even stock rom), wiping everything i could fine, changing radios, changing the gps.conf file but nothing seems to make it work. Using GPS Status it now tells me that it can't find any satellites outdoors or indoors so im wondering if its a hardware error. Any help would be much appreciated :)

I use the car dock with my S3 and it's phenomenal. It also fits the Note II and Galaxy S4.

Easy to insert & remove the phone with just one hand. Great construction and total flexibility. It's more $ than most docks, but seeing as you can use it with almost any phone, it will pay itself back over time. :good:

Hi guys

is it possible to install/port the CM10 themes available here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1801752

to a fully deodexed ICS stock rom for Pantech Flex rom such as this?

IceFlexSandwich

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2188436

if yes, what do i need to know so that i can apply the themes?
[General Questions and Answers] Chadw1985:
Themes for other Roms will not work for this rom. The apks that the themes replace are different than ours. if you do attempt to flash a theme from another ROM youre phone will probably end up in a boot loop.

To theme

You will need to copy these apps from /system/app folder in phone or from downloaded rom:

Settings.apk

Phone.apk

Contacts.apk

SystemUI.apk

Framework-res.apk from /system/framework

Rename the app youre wanting to theme from .apk to .apk.zip

extract the res folder to a folder anywhere with 7zip(Leave this window open)

change the icons you want in each folder(Usually hdpi and xhdpi folders except for systemui)(make sure to keep same name and size of original icon)

select all icons in the folder you are working in and simply drag and drop icons to same folder in 7zip window replacing old icons

rename .apk.zip back to .apk

push to phone via adb or make update and flash with cwm

if you did the steps correctly you will have themed an app.

Be careful with the .9 images resizing or messing with them can cause them to not display correctly

I use gimp to mod icons.

Im working on a theme myself now. Only thing that gets me is Pantech and AT&T have added alot of icons that are masking the original icons for ICS that are in the apks as well. So there is alot of modding to do to make a full theme for this ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] MechaDroid:
Is it possible to integrate something like the Theme Chooser(available on CM10 and AOKP) on your rom?

so that there is a direct compatibility with other CM10 themes?
[General Questions and Answers] Chadw1985:
Im sure its possible. and yes it is possible to port the themes to our phone. Atleast some of them. You would have to rewrite some of the smali files in the .apk's and .jar files and make a few other changes that will make the apps run on our phone. Thats what Im trying to do now
[General Questions and Answers] MechaDroid:
The only thing i miss about your awesome Ice Flex Rom is the theme-ing capability

[Networking] Codenix:
I've just started using the Outlook Domino connector to enable me to use Outlook to access our Lotus Notes server, and more importantly, sync my Notes inbox, calendar etc with the i-mate without other third-party software (I was previously using mNotes from CommonTime which didn't totally satisfy my needs).

Whilst I'm now thrilled with the Outlook/Notes/i-mate sync scenario, which is working beyond my expectations, I'm a little hesitant to set up my Activesync to Exchange Server Account (from Club i-mate) which I also use for private email because I'm unsure whether this dual server via Activesync scenario will work (and I can't jeopardize my Notes mail / calendar integrity to check).

So, has anybody tried using Activesync to syncronize with their PC's Outlook inbox / calendar etc, PLUS a server sync with Exchange? What happens? Do you just end up with two Inbox items in Activesync? Does all your email etc from all accounts end up in the same PPC inbox (and then both accounts)?

Any first-hand experience would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
[Networking] softworkz:
Hi,

it is not possible to do both with ActiveSync. If you configure ActiveSync for server sync it no longer synchronizes with Outlook locally.

You can use IMAP or POP3 for your additional accounts, I am using Exchange for my main account and IMAP for other accounts and it works fine.
[Networking] Codenix:
Okay Softworkz, that's what I was afraid of.

Unfortunately Clubimate don't allow POP (or IMAP) access for member email, so it's one or the other for me then.

Thanks for your comment.
[Networking] madkat:
Ooooh interesting - what was up with mNotes? =) Version 3.5 is out soon by the way - and I'm working on some stuff for our new website.. :D
[Networking] Codenix:
Hi Madkat,

I used mNotes on my original XDA and now my i-mate with great success for ages, until I made the mistake of creating categories for my contacts. Once I happened mis-type a category name and that was when I discovered that I couldn't delete them - at all.

No matter what I did I couldn't stop rogue categories from appearing in the drop-down list. After removing all contacts from the rogue category, and then deleting it on the i-mate (or Notes, it didn't matter), the rogue category would still appear in the drop-down list, and in the add / remove categories sceen as [category name] (not in master category list), or words to that effect. I also played around with the mNotes config app which is installed on the device (which was just about all I could find in the user manual relating to categories), but the manual didn't match what was installed (guess it hadn't been updated for that section), and I wasn't successful.

I actually posted a question on xda-developers about it, but wasn't able to sort it out. I just became frustrated in the end. I'm not sure I'd go back to it now because I'm so impressed with the Outlook Domino Connector and not having to use Notes for my e-mail at work - I hate notes as an email client, especially with all the 'customisations' our IT jerks have done; we don't have rights to do anything - can't even create rules to move mail to other folders based on content anymore. It's a shame they don't upgrade to Notes 6, but there you go.
[Networking] madkat:
TBH I hate Notes as a mail client too!! If I didn't have to do any Notes development I'd be using IMAP on the Domino server & Thunderbird on my PC.

I think it is worth mentioning, though, that during your 30-day evaluation you are entitled to full tech support by email and/or phone - bit late now though! D'OH.

Gap between the aluminum housing and plastic.

Can send to HTC?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul_59:
There are various posts on here about this.

Some examples are ok, without a gap whilst others have been less fortunate.

If it bothers you then get in touch with the place you bought it from and request an exchange
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WolfDale7:
Ahh that looks nasty.

Like the above poster, do go and get it exchanged if you're within your exchange time frame. Will be much faster than sending it to HTC. Just tell them it's a manufacturer's defect and you want to exchange your unit for the same model, just one without defects.

Common problem, but yours is one of the worst cases :S

You can try to clamp the speakers down and it should -- theoretically -- seal the gap. Maybe heat it with a hair dryer on high about 4 inches away only over the problem area (while having your phone covered by something to protect it like a towel). Some users managed to seal the gap with just a case!
