I have installed official jb + unlocked bootloader and cwm and after i have installed miui rom by flatzki (or smth) it gives me this http://i.imgur.com/beyrYZY.jpg . So the phone boots,it shows the bootanimation and after that appears this and the phone shuts down. Please tell me how to fix this asap because i dont have a notebook or a pc.
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sabyn:
Have you tried to reflash the JB? Or you had this problem after you unlocked the bootloader? Maybe you did something wrong.
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d0vada:
This appear after i flashed the miui rom. Before when i was on official jb i had no problems.

I think if you flashed miui on jelly bean you must flash v10 baseband from xoxodemo http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2275969 , because miui is for android 4.0.3.
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d0vada:
Thats right mate. Right now i have downloaded another jb rom but my cwm doesnt recognize it. When i tap on external sd card it appears the miui zip but the jb zip not. How can i fix this?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] razzzzzia:
It would be great if somebody can test it, thanks in advance.

How to test:

put a camera in front of the screen and play around with the shutter speed and the brightiness of the screen. When lines appears on the screen, its not good => pwm, without lines => good :good:

edit: i had links for pwm explanation, but not enough posts, sorry..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] roustabout:
The question is about pulse width modulation, which I'm reading occurs when both of the following are true:

- you are using an LED light source with variable brightness

- you are using a camera with a rolling shutter

http://provideocoalition.com/aadams/story/pulse_width_modulation_is_not_your_friend/

The camera on the note 8 does not have an LED flash, so I think the poster either now knows that it won't be an issue, or is curious as to whether display brightness on the screen is controlled by pulse width modulation or a different technique.

In the latter case, I don't know, and since this is stuff that can't be seen by the eye nor in the viewfinder, but mostly in photo editing suites per the article I link to, I'm not sure why it's an issue here.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] razzzzzia:
Hi roustabout

I think we dont speak about the same topic.

What I mean is the flickering of the display. A good example is found on youtube: Nexus 7: no PWM on LCD

A lot of LCD use this technology to dim, but its not proper dimming, just switch on / switch off the the lcd very quickly.

Some people have problem with this flickering but dont know that theres a problem, so for example dry eyes, getting tired very fast when working on the computer..

I think more the 95% of the usual monitors use this technique.

I hope this helps.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] roustabout:
no, we're talking about the same thing:

'curious as to whether display brightness on the screen is controlled by pulse width modulation or a different technique.'

The article I found thinks it's not visible; what you've read or experienced suggests it's problematic.

What I can say is the first-gen ipad was very hard on my eyes; the note 8 is not like that, but not as good as e-ink. Much more fun than e-ink, though!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] debar1:
I must not be the first person to do this but after two days of searching I can't find this problem.

I was flashing with odin and it kept hanging at communicating, I would wait and then unplug and plug the usb back in. It has always worked for me. This time it must have just been slow and not hung up. I didn't wait long enough and unplugged it right as it started processing.

now if I leave it plugged in for a few minutes...wall or computer it goes to download mode but has a tiny piece of the blue progress bar.

Odin won't recognize that it is there even when it goes to download mode. It was late and instead of putting it up till morning I decided to try one more flash and got impatient. My fault I know, but any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

btw vzw I800
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] debar1:
I got passed the problem. Used a different odin vs and just kept trying over and over until it recognized it and pushed past. not to get passed the boot screens and move on to the fun again.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lohit13:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-19300) international version. I rooted it last night. Took a custom backup of ROM and backup using Titanium backup. I installed cyanogenmod 9 on it today. It was working perfectly. Then when i installed Google apps (gapps) and restarted it got stuck on the bootscreen. I hardbooted and now all i see is this fuzzy black n white screen ( like static). I tried going into clockworkmod recovery but still the same screen. However, i can still go to odin mode.

So i guess i have to install stock firmware through odin now. But i'm unable to download the firmware. All links are on hotfile and as everyone knows , it sucks :/ download stops after 2 min. Cant find a mirror also.

Any ideas what to do? have u guys also encountered a similar problem?

Can someone download and send the firmware file to me somehow(anysend or wetransfer or something)? iv tried downloading it many times but failed
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
Have you tried downloading the firmware from Sammobile? If you haven't I would recommend taking a look at this link here for the official firmwares for the International Model Galaxy S3, after you have selected your country and carrier, you can download the firmware and flash it through Odin. Let me know if you still have questions :).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lohit13:
Thanks for the fast reply

Thats the problem, everytime i try downloading the firmware it just stops in the middle. Anyway, i got the 4.2.2 firmware for my mobile. I tried flashing that, it said no partitioning. So i tried re-partitioning with the .PIT file. But it get stuck on 'Get PIT mapping' with 'SET PARTITON' in white on the box above (COM)port. Doesnt go further. How do i fix it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
Make sure you have loaded the partition file into the .pit file slot. Also I would recommend taking a look at this procedures "How to Proceed" section (Make sure to substitute the correct file's for your device and don't worry about the multi-CSC part of the procedure) on what to do if you get stuck at the "Get PIT mapping" section.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lohit13:
i tried in xp mode too. no luck.

then i tried with odin 1.85 instead of 3.07. Now it doesnt show Get PIT Mapping. It shows 're-partition failed'. I guess thats some progress :P

But its still a no go for phone. Any idea how to fix it?

I was thinking of flashing the CWM recovery again and try to go to recovery mode. Should i or is it too risky?

I'm also gonna try flashing with the recovery firmware i found on the forum today...

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liskrig:
Hello all! I'm still using my Galaxy Nexus (Toro) and I'm due to upgrade next month, I'm now seriously considering the Galaxy S4, but the one thing that has me concerned is the screen quality.

As some of you may already know, the Galaxy Nexus has some odd color reproduction (especially in the greys) when the screen is anything below maximum brightness. It looks like there is almost a texture to the greys, and whites when scrolling. (See photos here)

I understand that this is the nature of the display on the GNex and I've learned to just tolerate it.

I really just want to know if the S4 suffers from the same issue at all?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant987:
I personally notice the same thing for the greys in my S4, but I think is less evident than on the Nexus (my sister has one and I compared the 2 displays). In any case I think that it is a "feature" of AMOLED displays! The white instead is perfect and believe me is the best white I've ever seen on an AMOLED display!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
Screen issues on the Galaxy S4? Where do I start!

*Pink tint

*Light Banding across the screen on low brightness

*Purple smearing

*Hue changing when keyboard is toggled

*Screen flickering when using data on white Web pages

*Purple greys on low brightness

I'm sure there's more!

The S4 is the worst of the Galaxy devices for quality control.

It was rushed to market to compete with HTC and Sony and so suffers a lot of issues.

Don't get me wrong, I love my S4 but definitely check the screen as soon as you get it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guitarmafia:
Dont know about i9505 but the only "issue" i have on my i9500 is purple smearing that too on some 3rd party apps and barely noticable(after the update)...

And s4 has currently the best screen that u cn get in the market apart from iphone5 or note 2..but the latter phones are not full hd so s4 somewhat wins the round.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derWolf_:
I have none of these issues, except the smearing, which with the update is fixed. Anything else is just perfect. I would say that this is the best mobile display put on a phone so far, and by faaaar the best SAMOLED out there.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jboodram:
I can confirm that I have all these issues aswell...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
The latest update did NOT fix the smearing.

It is just no longer as noticeable in the settings of TW.

All 3rd party apps and even other parts of TW still have the purple smearing, even the stock gallery.

It is simply a drawback of the AMOLED display showing pure black by turning off the pixels.

---------- Post added at 08:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 AM ----------

It's worth the risk mate. The S4 is still one hell of a phone!

It's just a shame Samsung were blinded by the $$$ and didn't put the S4 through proper quality control.

If you bought it I don't think you'd regret it :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derWolf_:
True, however for most of us it was most obvious in the settings menu, and it is gone from there, which is fine by me :)

However, you said it is a drawback of the AMOLED technology. I don't remember my old S2 having smearing issues? Or did it..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
It's not a drawback of AMOLED it's a draw back of this display turning off pixels to make black.

The S, S2 and S3 did not shut down pixels for blacks.

You get better battery life and purer blacks on the S4 but the downside is the smearing effect.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jboodram:
Your right...we have to live with it...the pixel are going from off to on when scrolling through black menus..thats why this happens. ..older galaxies never actually cut off...if wanna fix this you can use screen adjuster and slightly adjust the rgb, this will stop the smearing but also stop the pixels from turning off when displaying black

Hey everyone,

I am new to the HTC world, coming from Samsung, and have some questions. I can't seem to find the answer so I'm hoping someone here can help out.

I am currently S OFF and Bootloader unlocked. I am interested in changing my MID and CID so I can receive OTA updates faster. AT&T is way too slow.

From what I've read I need to change my MID and CID to flash a developer edition or international edition RUU.

My question comes in two parts:

1. Which CID is most fast at giving updates and

2. What is the cooresponding MID?

On a side note, if anyone knows, how do I find out which RUU to flash, generally from what I've read, the filename isn't very descriptive as to which CID it's for.

Thanks,

RPelham

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fspro:
Hi,

today my I9100 froze while in the browser. It didn't respond to any touch or button activity. So I removed the battery and reinserted it, but the phone didn't boot up. There was nothing, a black screen, no matter which buttons I pressed.

I tried the Download Mode, Pushing the Volume-Up/Down while plugging in the USB cable. The battery is fine, I tested it on another phone.

The phone was rooted with cm-10.1-20130606-NIGHTLY-i9100. It does not matter if a SIM is placed or not, still no response from the phone.

One odd thing tough: The phone gets warm in the right corner, near the flashlight when the battery is inserted for a while.

Can I do something or is it dead?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Replace motherboard; service centre - new motherboard (most expensive option), source 2nd hand motherboard from 'donor' phone (with a broken screen, etc; search online) & either replace it yourself or pay a local mobile repair shop to do it (cheaper option).

And if your warranty is good, you could always take it to a service centre & play dumb (obviously they're under no obligation to repair or replace it under warranty tho given you've voided it).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fspro:
Herbert Heaheye

Wouldn't it be have to repaired in order to determine if a custom ROM was used? The phone is not showing any reaction at all, so I guess the only way finding out is reading the flash chip itself, is that possible or is this the normal case?

Anyway I purchased a USB JIG, just to be sure before I give it into repairs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
They might be able to tell. You might get warranty service. These things are never guaranteed either way. Take it to a service centre & find out.

Edit - Jig has 0.00000001% chance of working, but try it anyways. Heat around camera & no life = dead components on MB.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subbarao.t:
Similar or probably the same issue

My phone is a I9100, rooted, running CM 10.1 Nightly (I don't remember which exact version but definitely not the latest nightly). My phone was in my backpack along with my laptop. When I tried to use it, it remained unresponsive so I turned it off by holding the power button and then turned it on again. It showed the "Samsung Galaxy SII" boot logo and was stuck.

So I pulled the battery out, waited for about 15 secs, put the battery back in and turned it on - no reaction. The phone won't turn on, my computer doesn't detect, not charging. The service center says that my Mobo needs to be replaced.

I have ordered an USB Jig but I'm not sure if it will work. Did you try the Jig? Did it work?

My phone does get heated up near the rear camera even before it died. So not sure if it really is a fried mobo and bootloader failure.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
If a service centre has told you its a dead MB, a jig ain't working. Save your time & have it repaired now.
