You could try and check with the attached testpatterns.

They are basically three vertical gradients - greyscale, red, green, and blue

Each gradient in turn is composed of 3 columns

left column: 16bit - Rx5bits (32 levels) Gx6bits (64 levels) Bx5bits (32 levels)

middle column: 24bit - RGBx8bits (256 levels)

right column: 12bit - RGBx4bits (16 levels)

There's two files - one with dithering and one without (banding). The dithering method used is a basic Floyd-Steinberg which is used in most dithering engines next to a regular dither (not included, but I have one of those in the same kit

Be sure to view the image full-screen, as otherwise you will run into resizing issues :)

What you'll be looking for, essentially, is which of the two left/right columns most resembles the center column. Unless you have a full 24bit device, there should be either banding or dithering occuring, and the center column should look like the left or right column.

If you're not sure - load the image, take a screengrab ("Magic SS" functions with VGA), and attach the result here for us to peek at. I'm *assuming* that it would grab the actual output data and would thus get us the screengrab post-bitreduction :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] chainsawbeer:
well, it would APPEAR that everything is in order, in the standard non-dithered image the left column matches up best visually to the center which would indicate a 16bit display, as the device is rated. however, in all my time of graphics work, downsampling a 24bit image to display on a 16bit display has never produced such unsightly results
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] lbendlin:
magicss will force the saved BMP into 565 (16 bit). For a true 24 bit screen capture use my ScreenShotCE program (search Handango)

(of course this is a red herring since the screen is 16 bit, and not 18 or 24 bit.)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ZeBoxx:
yeah, the point was to get a screengrab of what he's actually seeing - not what's being sent to the driver -before- downsampling/etc. :)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranav45:
Hi friends, I am trying to use wifi over PPPoE connection mode on my my rooted nexus 5 running android 4.4.2. I have tried an app called wifipppoe on play store to connect to my wifi. It displays a successfull connection message but I am not able to browse internet on it.At the same time, my samsung galaxy grand duos i9082 running android 4.1.2 is able to successfully connect to the wifi using this app. Does nexus 5 supports wifi over PPPoE ? Do I have to install any custom kernel to get this functionality on my Nexus 5....Please help.... Many thanks.....
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranav45:
some DNS problem..

Hi Friends, I have found out a new result.After successful connection to my wifi using wifipppoe app, I can ping 195.249.80.32 OK but if I try to ping google.com it answers unknown host.Also, when i type 195.249.80.32 in my chrome browser, it opens the google site. But if i type google.com, it doesn't open.

So I sense some DNS problem here. Any ideas or suggestions on how to fix it.

[Moto X Q&A] herrdrchili:
RESOLVED!

so I just got my moto x dev edition, unlocked the bootloader, and then screwed it up...

i tried flashing the recovery as described here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2458451 but didn't realize/understand that fastboot and mfastboot were not interchangeable. it looked like it went ok, but I wasn't able to reboot into recovery. so, now on boot to recovery i get the little android on his back with a red triangle. i'm pretty sure that the stock recovery is gone, but cwm is not installed either. which brings me to my next little problem...

so i did some reading and got mfastboot installed and thought ok I just need to reflash cwm on phone again. problem is, now the phone won't stay in usb debug mode so that i can see it when fastbooted. that is, when i reboot the phone into fastboot by holding the power/vol down I can't see the phone when doing 'adb devices', and whem I let it boot up i see usb debug is switched off. when i switch it on, then i can see the phone from adb again, but when i try to 'reboot bootloader' it gives me a not allowed error.

at this point i'm just sick and afraid i bricked it. i am coming from a galaxy nexus and never had anything like this happen before. i truly appreciate any help here, at this point i feel like puking and dreading telling the wife i just blew 450.... :-/

ps i'm on mac 10.7 so if i need rsd it will be via a virtual machine....
[Moto X Q&A] xpsychox:
so, if i understand you correctly, u've held down the volume down button and power button? becasue that's your fastboot. That's where you need to be to use RSD, and that's what i'd do.
[Moto X Q&A] btdonovan:
ADB commands aren't used in fastboot mode. You should be able to see the device in fastboot mode with the command fastboot devices. Also, remember that the stock rom will try to restore the stock recovery when it is booted so if you flash recovery in fastboot mode then let the stock rom boot it will reflash the stock recovery which shows you the little droid and the red triangle.

You should still be okay though. Shut the phone off and boot into fastboot manually with power and volume down. Reflash the recovery. I know there are warnings about using mfastboot but I used standard fastboot before I saw those and didn't have an issue. From the fastboot screen after flashing the recovery, use volume down to get to highlight recovery and then press volume up to select, not power. Power will just do a standard reboot.

If you flashed twrp recovery then rebooting system will prompt you to install su. I think clockwork does the same thing. Letting the recovery install su will also prevent the stock recovery from getting restored and from there you should be good.
[Moto X Q&A] herrdrchili:
ok then - i guess rsd has potential?

i can reboot into fastboot, but adb can't see the phone. I'll start trying to setup rsd and and see if it can do any better. any good links you know to get up to speed on that would be appreciated. if you know how to simply reflash the recovery via rsd that would be helpful too - thanks in advance!
[Moto X Q&A] xpsychox:
the sites that I know of are for the device I have, a non devliper edition... I don't know if it makes a difference, I don't wanna make anything worse.

[HTC Butterfly S] encikbasir:
It's is normal my butterfly s take time about 3hour and half to full charge from 5%-100% using stock adapter ? How to reduce charging time ? :) anyone Pliss.hehe
[HTC Butterfly S] edorner:
Yes, it is perfectly normal. It takes about 3-3.5h for my 901s too.

Our stock AC adapter is capable of sourcing 1A, and we have a 3.2Ah battery. So in theory, the shortest possible charging time from 0% to 100% is 3.2Ah/1A=3.2h. In reality, it takes a bit more time, since the efficiency of the built-in charging circuitry and the charge efficiency of the battery is always less than 100%, and Li-ion charging controllers do not usually run at "full blast" during the entire cycle.

For shorter charging times, you could try using a 2A quick charger, but keep in mind that your device was designed to work with 1A chargers. By using an over-spec'd charger you will be putting extra strain on the battery and charging circuitry inside your phone, which may shorten their lifetime.
[HTC Butterfly S] encikbasir:
Wow great answer with theory. Thank you for the info. ;)

I was wrong, it keeps happening every five minutes of activity. It did not do this before the root that i know of.

I just bought this s4 its running MDL stock but i just rooted with motochopper then i installed supersu from CF and it told me something about knox so i unistalled all the knox apks on system bit how is that i knew that there was no knox til 4.3 so what the ***k. Another thing i flash in odin philz recovery and always fails to write and using rom manager its sucesful but i cant enter it shows a yellow triangle and in red letter on top saying something about the kernel. And that at&t detect unoficial stuff. So im wondering if this was running 4.3 and downgraded to MDL or was MF3 what can i do??? Or a recovery you guys recomend. And if that fails try to flash stock MDL or MF3?? THANKS

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] SelfElevated2:
Well I dont think it was downgraded bc mf3 and mk2 which had knox didnt allow you to odin backwards. But I could be wrong. To have knox it would've had to of been upgraded. But knox isn't really a big deal it just voids your warranty with Samsung. As far as the yellow triangle you need to flash the loki doki zip in recovery and it will boot. Loki is a kernel patch for att s4. Some kernels and roms are lokid by the dev but if they're not you have to flash loki after flashing to avoid the unauthorized kernel error

Ok thanks but i cant flash a recovery. Everytime i try in odin it fails.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Jaziz1996:
I recently unlocked my bootloader & rooted for the purpose of installing InsertCoin's newest ROM. I installed the newest TWRP recovery, copied the ROM.zip to my sdcard, and from the ClockworkMod app, selected "Flash Rom" or whatever it was called. The phone rebooted into recovery, I wiped cache, dalvik cache, system, and factory reset. I then navigated to the ROM.zip, and chose to install. TWRP stayed on the installing screen for a little bit, and then switched to the screen showing TWRP (what is shown upon entering recovery). The phone was stuck on that screen, so I rebooted, but I could not get past recovery/HTC screen. I thought the problem was that I didn't flash boot.img, so I went to fastboot and flashed it. That got me in a boot loop, so I erased cache via fastboot. I could now access TWRP, but the InsertCoin ROM.zip installation would behave the same way as it did before. I could not access my sdcard (TWRP had the option, but it didn't work) so I resorted to restoring via HTC's newest RUU. I charged my phone for a little bit, connected it to my computer, and proceeded with the RUU. It "finished" and my phone maintained and continues to maintain a black screen, not responding to any button/combination of buttons I throw at it. My computer does, however, make a noise when the phone is plugged in. What the hell do I do? I am a 100% noob, by the way.

Okay. I'm sitting at PC. looking at the slap thread.

1) unzip slapmymoto 1.0

Push slapmymoto.jar to sdcard/slapmymoto

2) run cydia impactor and start telnet as system on port 2222

3) either telnet or use puttytel and run dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/slapmymoto.jar slapmymoto

When the device tells you to reboot, do this with adb reboot

4) when the device comes back up, run impactor again and either telnet or use puttytel and run dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/slapmymoto.jar slapmymoto again

The device will reboot.

5) one the device is back up. Take 4.4 OTA.

Once on 4.4 you will enable USB debugging and continue.

6) in adb run adb shell

7) run cp /sdcard/install.sh /data/local/tmp/install.sh

8) run chmod 755 /data/local tmp/install.sh

9) run echo "/data/local/tmp/install.sh" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper

10) either wait for the device to reboot or toggle blue tooth.

(Note) sometimes the device will not reboot. Simply manually reboot.

11) install supersu from play store open it and update binaries.

(Note) all above files must be in your fastboot folder.
