[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Hasn't she been saving the contacts on Google and not just the phone?

If your TB backup of contacts and data is corrupted and she has not stored them on google then you are out of luck. But if they were on google she can see them on a computer by logging into her google account. My guess is they are not syncing...so make sure contacts is checked under google accounts sync. Then they should appear. Also if she synced Facebook contacts, that account needs to be added and synced.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kay131108:
Thnx for the reply kennyg..but no she thought she had all her contacts saved on there but no theres nothing there..the contact and data are not currupted its just they run on diffrent .core...somebody has to know a way.pls.

Please forgive me if this is the way you were restoring it, but this is the way I do it every time and it works no matter what version of Android I am going to or from.

Open Titanium Backup tap menu button then batch actions, tap "run" next to 'Restore all apps with data', popup windows asks if you want to restore "Snapshot" "let me choose myself" or XML. Pick XML.View attachment 2986363 tap "deselect all" and select radio button "data only" go down to "Messages (SMS&MMS)" with the TB icon, select it and tap green check mark at the top, should do it for you.

[Sony Xperia M2] RatchetHacked:
No panic plz

WHY DID YOU USE THOSE ****TY PROGRAMS INSTEAD OF THE NORMAL FASTBOOT????? :confused:

Anyway so download an .ftf for your M2 type (you can even install the CM 11 rom if you want to have the CWM recovery)

Download this rar whit fastboot and tools -https://mega.co.nz/#!9oAWgSSK!4IXHU7cuNvRF7PUQHMYTx8tN5a8FSdw81aEqJWjL1mw-

Unzip the pack on your desktop

Drag & drop your .ftf inside the fastboot folder

Open cmd in fastboot folder

Connect your device ( in fastboot mode )

Tipe fastboot devices to see if it is connected properly

Now , im not responsable if you brick your device, tipe "fastboot flash firmware (name of file).ftf"

Wait until it's done

Unplug your device and boot it up :good:

FYI, the only way you can dump the stock recovery require s-off so you can downgrade hboot to 1.44 and use "fastboot boot recovery.img" to boot a custom recovery and then pull your stock recovery using dd commands from an adb shell of custom recovery.

the stock animations in the future.

[Nexus 6  General] msal:
I've been doing a bit of research about these different types of displays. After using a couple of IPS displays and comparing them side-by-side to AMOLED displays, I'm beginning to have a different perspective. IPS just looks stunning. Not to say AMOLED looks bad or anything, but in the past I was more inclined towards AMOLED. As someone who has experienced burn-ins with previous AMOLED displays, I can say that it really does suck.

IPS displays are generally better for outdoor viewing, are brighter (usually), have better viewing angles, more realistic colors and don't burn in. On the other hand, AMOLED displays have colors that "pop", have very deep blacks, and don't require a backlight.

Hell, go to your local carrier store/Target/Best Buy/whatever sells electronics and take a look at the Samsung phones like the S5 and phones with IPS displays. Every AMOLED display I saw in stores had a tremendous burn-in. I wish I could have taken pictures but I didn't have my phone with me at the time. Granted, the phones on display are turned on all day and are usually stuck on one image as long as they are display phones which leads to the rapid burn ins. But the fact still stands.

As you guys know, the Nexus 6 is going to have an AMOLED display. Now, this isn't real research or anything but there is something that I have noticed when I look over all of the hands on pictures from sites like TheVerge, TechCrunch, etc. The Nexus 6's display isn't the brightest dip=splay out there. Actually, it looks pretty dim. Of course there aren't real reviews yet but this is just speculation on my part.

What do you guys think? Are the trade-offs worth it? For those that do own phones with AMOLED displays, have you had burn in on your screen? How long do you guys think the Nexus 6 can last before it potentially burns in?

[Nexus 6  General] tombolger:
Amoled

I personally like OLED, but mostly for the contrast. My question though is if the Nexus 6 will have a Pentile or RGB subpixel layout. I hate Pentile. Also, brightness is not the biggest factor in sinlight readability, its reflectivity that matters. Many OLED screens have low reflectivity, so the sun isnt bouning into your eyes and making the display look dim. And i have heard that higher pixel densities burn in less, but that is not something i have seen proof of.
[Nexus 6  General] dazed1:
Amoled if its same tech like on the Note 4 (same generation) IPS if it was high quality one like on the iPhone 6.
[Nexus 6  General] darkchazz:
I prefer IPS LCD because I've tried my fair share of Samsung AMOLED devices and all of them have greenish-yellow tints and grainy colors. Not to even mention the pathetic brightness levels.

I would've preferred a well calibrated 1080p IPS LCD. It'd easily look as sharp as the 1440p

Pentile

AMOLED, while at the same time improving battery life and GPU performance.
[Nexus 6  General] Semseddin:
Amoled for me. I really like the colors and viewing angles of it. Not to mention the low power emission and active display compability. No lightbleeding issues,too.
[Nexus 6  General] Dr Faustus:
After using an IPS display for ages now with my N4 I would love to use an AMOLED display where colours did not seem so washed out and true blacks can be had (which since darker colours are easier on my eyes I prefer it).

The only worry I have is Burn In, but if I have heard correctly a lot of Burn In issues have been resolved with later devices. I really hope this is true.
[Nexus 6  General] journeyman73:
I prefer Amoled as the ips tech I dealt with had issues with light bleed & other weird anomalies
[Nexus 6  General] oneplus:
Ips is way better.

Sent from my One A0001
[Nexus 6  General] EternalAndroid:
Yes, the only reason I'd pass is the fact that it's an OLED display. I always get burn in, I told myself never again but I will be buying the N6.
[Nexus 6  General] alex989898:
It depends of the display's generation and calibration.

If it's on par with the AMOLED screen of the Note 4, I prefer AMOLED screen.

But an IPS Display as good as the one used in the iPhone 6 plus is better than every older AMOLED screen.
[Nexus 6  General] hello00:
nexus 6 is amoled and the note 4 is super amoled..huge difference
[Nexus 6  General] alex989898:
I don't know if other manufacturers have the right to use the terms "Super AMOLED" or if it's patented by Samsung.
[Nexus 6  General] hello00:
i think if u compare the note 4's screen with the s5 you will see the difference
[Nexus 6  General] jt3:
I definitely prefer IPS, but I've really been wanting that Ambient Display. Can't have both, so to me the best compromise is AMOLED, paired with an LCD wearable. I'll have that with my N6 and 360.
[Nexus 6  General] jbdan:
Great topic, especially considering the screen is what we all look at every single time we use our phone. This is definitely a "preference" thing.

I've had a few phones (both newer and older display techs) and I know for myself, a photography enthusiast, I prefer color correctness and white whites over "true blacks"

ON MY PHONE

. I watch my Panasonic Plasma TV for true blacks (and even those aren't 100% true).

AMOLED's (pre GS5 & Note4 and I've yet to view either) burn-in and have image retention and their whites are beyond horrible. Of course most wouldn't even notice this until they put their phone right next to a IPS LCD. You can always "get used to" or "learn to like" the screen your viewing. Until you put it next to something else. Even then a lot of us will believe the one we have is the best. All comes back to personal preference :)
[Nexus 6  General] alex989898:
I think both are marketed as "Super AMOLED" no ? (But I know that the screen of the Note 4 is better)

But that's not my point. My point is that even if Google comes with the same screen as the Galaxy Note 4, I'm not sure that they can use the terms "Super AMOLED" (exactly like you can't use the term "Retina" if you are not Apple).
[Nexus 6  General] abdel12345:
What's it look like when the screen burns in? Is that when it leaves like a shadow of something like an app you used in the background no matter what? Because my friends s3 has snap chat burned into the background.

Does this happen with all amoled screens? And if it does will warranty exchange it? Because I use my phone a lot and don't want to risk something like this. I. have lots of friends with the s4 and s5 and none have this issue. The only one who has it is with his really old s3.

I don't really care about true whites and deep black's or whatever. When I had the nexus 5 it looked yellow but with my g2 it's really nice. It doesn't matter though because I don't notice it unless I compare it to another phone. And I really like how the colors look on the Samsung Galaxy s tablet so if Motorola's amoled screen is anything like that I'll love the colors. And I like that theres no back light to cause light bleed like in the nexus 5 and nexus 10 (notorious for it).

But I'm gonna do some research on amoled now and see what I find out. I really hope the newer phones like this especially at this price don't have issues

Sent from my LG-VS980
[Nexus 6  General] alex989898:
It happen only on older phones. Both my S2 and S3 have burn-in issues (keyboard and notification bar are burn-in on both) but my GS4 GPe is fine.

But the Tab S use a recent gen of AMOLED and are very well calibrated. Motorola's smartphones never use the latest AMOLED screens (it seems that Samsung doesn't sell them)

[Nexus 6  General] x111:
Amoled display is the best I ever seen, so glad that on nexus 6 I will finally have it.

True black, the highest view angles, more colors.
[Nexus 6  General] msal:
When you get burn in it's pretty nasty. Basically it leaves like a shadow of what was there. It's incredibly common in the notification bar, navigation buttons and any apps that you commonly use that have a static image or logo.

I had the same issue with my SGS2. It burned in on the notification bar and was extremely evident when in landscape on apps like YouTube and chrome. Granted it was an older amoled technology and I had the device for almost years.

The biggest eye opener dad seeing Note 3s and S5s with terribly burnt in screens at local carrier stores. Yah I know they are on display all day but I have a hunch that could be reproduced if you use the device day to day over the course of a few months.

I also agree that amoled looks better especially when watching videos.

Using an IPS display recently has brought some of these issues to mind which is why I started the topic.
[Nexus 6  General] alex989898:
I think it's very hard to burn-in AMOLED screen since Samsung start using diamond Pentile matrix. Now they shape each sub pixel to optimise their lifetime.
[Nexus 6  General] Langduscher:
IIRC the Galaxy Nexus had an AMOLED display and the screen burn in was ridiculously annoying.

Hope that won't be the case with this "premium built flagship" but is actually worth the steep price.

I don't get my hopes up though. The Gnex retailed for a steep price too.
