yep, but i've read some opinions about devices with sn 630xxxx that do have problems too. i have sn627xxxxx and have no problems so far.

there is a bit of luck involved when you buy one.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wwaveydave:
More than likely there's an issue with all the devices but it's only apparent with a certain cocktail of applications or uses.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bydandie:
The Vario II and M3100 have only been out for days, so I feel that this is clouding the issue and it is correct that this is likely a generic issue.

Must admit since reducing my today plugins to the minimum and assigning the close button from Pocket Plus to the Voice Speed dial button, the device has been rock solid and very responsive! 8)

I'm now wondering if the issues are due to people not closing down their apps correctly. The reason I say this is when I installed O2 plus this morning the screen simply refused to align. I was on the screen alignment utility for four attempts prior to aligning.

Could anyone who has issues with alignment state if they use a proper close app like the one from SPB Pocket Plus or Magic button or just use the OK button?

Hi, I am experiencing the same screen alignement issues on my 4 day HTC TyTN. This seems to be a general bug.

My serial number is HT628....

The question is: is it hardware, or firmware problem?

BR,

Seanhuang posted the following comments over on the sister thread about this issue:

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=57130&start=75&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=

"It is just as simple as a hardware problem of the right side "rubber gasket" between the frame and touch screen, which is a little bit thicker and create extra pressure on the screen then make it crazy. And of course the temperature of the battery during charging would make it worse (you know the physics)."

That taken at face value suggests a hardware problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bydandie:
That theory does not match what I'm seeing. With the Voda ROM myself and another could replicate at will and installing certain software seemed to totaly screw it up.

I'd be interested to see how many people who have the issue only use the OK button to close programs.

Is it hardware or software problem? Should I change my device or can wait for a new firmware?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] El_Mar1ach1:
Why don't we ask it to HTC? They should know if it's a software or hardware problem.

I have got the official answer from HTC Technical Hotline Support:

"This is indeed a known problem. If you return it to the repair centre, they should be able to fix this for you.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sectorlord:
ok... It repeated last night after a day.

Last night,I tried to undone the 2 screws at the back of the screen. IT IS SO TIGHT !!

So, i screw it back with just enough torque for plactic screw !!

Until now... it's behaving fine...!!! I think this issue is dependent on how much torque the tech is tighten those screws. Because some units sent back is havingthe same problem... it could be the tech is tightening it so much..

Now... my unit has not misaligned ...knock on wood !!! :lol:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Moshpit37:
My Note 2 had been running CleanROM for over a year, and I hadn't updated or done anything to it in that time. I was having some issues with lag and such but the final straw was yesterday my GPS quit working completely. When I tried turning it on my phone would freeze and I'd get a "System UI has stopped working" notification. So today I decided I'd start fresh and go back to stock 4.1.1 (I'm 99% sure that's what was on my phone when I got it) and used ODIN to flash back to that.

My question is, where do I go from here? I want to use one of the new ROMs utilizing the 4.3 or 4.4.2 versions, but I'm afraid I'm missing something important. I know not to just take the OTA updates, and I already installed (I think) the 4.3 MJ9 firmware update, but I'm not sure because it still says --- Android version 4.1.1 ; Baseband version I605VRUEMJ9 ---- Is this correct? Am I safe to install a 4.3-based ROM or do I need to update something else?

Thanks in advance for your help!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Yes you are.. Go ahead and flash away..

If you have problems connecting to wifi, then just go ahead and flash the MJ9 firmware again. But other than that you should be fine:good:

Unfortunately, Context Service has stopped working.

Hey, you ever figure this problem out? I'm having the same issue with my S5. It just keeps popping up. Sometimes back to back like 30 times.. It got better, but now it seems like it's getting worse. I'd rather not factory reset my device. I'm rooted on stock 4.4.2. It's been rooted since it came out. So it's been a while. It's been performing perfectly for many months.. But now this is happening. What's the deal?! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] antdavison:
i have an APICAL GPS

youtube[dot]com/watch?v=urX3rERYZf4

running the same menu as this one

youtube[dot]com/watch?v=wS37diJR0Q0

it has two skins

one has a "Mini Cooper" car with flashing spotlights

the other menu skin has a simpler green theme

i want to create green-themed matching power-on splash and iGoPrimo splash bitmaps

I think the green-themed menu BMPs are contained in

\ResidentFlash2\bin\Main\Main_Skin2.bin

.. this is in the attached Main_Skin2.zip file (also includes TotalConfig .ini's)

but i do not know how to extract them, i have tried many unarchivers, i think they use LZMA, as this is a common header in many of the Apical menu .bin files

the menu system is controlled by a program called "TotalConfig", but i have not been able to find any information on this on the www

does any one know how to extract these BMPs or have any information on the Apical/TotalConfig menu system

thanks in advance from New Zealand
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] antdavison:
the 800x480 menu files i am looking for are

residentflash2-bin-Main-Fore2-*.bmp

residentflash2-bin-Main-Animate2-*.bmp

residentflash2-bin-Main-MainLayer2-*.bmp

and maybe any *.ini file relating to GPSAni*.bmp

mine are all archived into a single *.bin file, but in earlier versions they are separate files in separate folders ... these files will give me enough menu elements to make some matching splash screens .... i don't need to modify the apical menu itself﻿
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Deleted member 1890170:
Why not simply search the WEB? Many icon-sets around, from which you can pick out those "menu elements" which match your needs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] antdavison:
Herr.J

have figured this out

need a tool called Apical IMaGe DECoder by SiL (AIDEC.zip) (attached)

find an appropriate firmware package

run the command

AIDEC.EXE winCEapp.img

and residentFlash2 files are written to a folder named 'winCEapp_out' which AIDEC creates

that has given me all the BMP elements to create 'power-on' * and 'primo' splash screens ** that match the green-theme menu#2 stored in residentFlash2

now, as the GPS changes states from bootup > (menu >) Primo > menu, all the backgrounds are the same and other elements match

... pity the Apical menus are sooooo ugly, and the Apical AtlasVI menus are partially locked up, but extracting some AtlasV winCEapp.img firmware gave me all the menu bitmap elements i needed, along with every other file that would be written to residentFlash2 if that firmware were to be installed

danke, Ant

static

logo.bmp or <2MB

animated

logo.gif copied to microSD / SDMMC; automatically updates boot splash screen logo if 'logo.bmp' or 'logo.gif' is present on microSD, and microSD is inserted in GPS before power up; after automatically updating splash screen logo, power off GPS, remove microSD, and restart GPS

this worked for my particular GPS******, yours could be different, see 4pna[dot]com/showthread.php?t=5903

*** i use winRAR 4.01 rather than 7z or WinZip, resulting in uncorrupted Primo friendly ZIPs

**** use iPAQ tools attached to optionally compress 'loading.bmp' from uncompressed (1.2MB) to primo friendly rleBMP (70kB)

***** add the lines like the ones below to primo's SYS.TXT, to alter the default position of the splash screen loading_progressBar (or alter similar lines in NandFlash\Primo\data.zip\ui_igo9\800_480\skincfg.ini)

I know this is a old topic... but how do you compress the images back to the bin file after modifying the images ? and then back to the img..?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] antdavison:
i didn't, i made an animated GIF from the menu elements, and used that as the boot image, instead of the pre-existing single image BMP.

Just put the animated GIF on a empty micro-SD card, call it logo.gif, boot up the GPS with the micro-SD card inserted, and the animated GIF will be copied automatically to the GPS and become the new boot screen ... ie the boot picture is not included in the .bin/.img

You could try. Connect your phone and using that tool try to force an update (somewhere in the upper right menu's). If that method leaves you on ICS, you'll have to flash JB yourself via kdz. Search the forum a bit for more on that.

I have been looking around for an eink android tablet.

Is the NST the only option?

I understand that the screen refresh rate severely limits what you can do, but i was wondering if it is otherwise possible to run all apps?

As far as I could find, none of the other eink ereaders (Amazon Kindle, Kobo) can be rooted / made to run regular android apps.
[Nook Touch General] J_Palito:
You can also choose a 13.3" epaper tablet from sony:

http://goodereader.com/blog/electronic-readers/sony-announces-13-3-inch-e-reader-to-launch-in-the-usa-this-may

I just can't precise if it even runs android.

I believe that neither Kindle or Kobo run android. They use a proprietary OS so, no rooting on them.
[Nook Touch General] embryo10:
Check the Android on Kobo thread.

They can run Android 2.3.4

there is the boyue t62 and the boyue t61 the Icarus illumina is a rebrand of the boyue t61. they run android 4.2 I think I am considering getting one myself but android L coming out in a month and that's supposed to be for low power and android one is for low costs devices so I am starting to like the idea of an android one device with eink so I kind of want to wait.

The only eink tablet?

Not at all. For example the Onyx Boox T68 comes with Android 4.0, a higher resolution display, more RAM, a faster processor

and is already open (no root required).
