[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Phenomenon:
UPDATE

Ordered the Iseeu and as it turns out it doesn't exactly work for the HD2 (duh). The angle the clip is at and the mirrors aren't made to work correctly on the HD2. Hopefully this prevents other people from ordering one in hopes of it working on the hd2.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dung8604:
Wouldn't the image show up flipped upside down? Just thinking about the angles, it doesn't look like it would work correctly without an inverting lens
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
I wondered how long it would be before someone spotted that!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] richierich:
Well actually, it looks like the back of the clip is acting as the third mirror, which in essence would make the end image the right way up.

Very interesting concept though, but would benefit from being built into a case. Can you imagine having to dig this out of a pocket everytime you wanted to use it?? I'd lose it way before I had the chance to use it!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
???

There is no back. Only 2 45° mirrors.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dung8604:
That's exactly what it looks like to me. Maybe the fellow who built his own can offer insight in how it turned out?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] anrabi4:
Dunno if I`m actually right but... the first one flips it once, the second one flips it back. There`s no need for any third mirror...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
Nope - It would be upside-down.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] masondoctorjt:
Doesn't matter. With tango you can flip the image around. If you touch the switch camera onscreen, it will flip the image. It's meant to switch from the Rear camera to the front, but on the HD2 it just flips the image. I want a mirror. I hope someone comes out with one for the HD2
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ronald3067:
I'll make some !

OK, my years of trolling have ended. I'll throw some things together in the next 5-7 days and post my results/pics.

I have the ability to mold small run plastics. I'm even thinking simple heat formed mirrored acrylic/poly sheet. Depending on the size of reflective surface needed I think I have a way to integrate it into a case and have it simply pop/slide up.

Small run <100 shouldn’t be a problem. Technology/New phones are released so quickly it's just not cost effective to produce something like this in mass.

Yes, other than using a prism the image will be upside down. As long as Tango can flip image I don't see a problem. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lagghshield:
Hi all,

I have a GT-I9000M from bell and I just recently upgrading to froyo(jk4) through kies. My phone has never been rooted/lag-fixed, unlocked and flashed before. After upgrading to froyo I have a problem with the back button being "stuck".

This does not happen all the time but occasionally at random it does and is very annoying since I am used to pressing the back button instead of the home button.

Here are the symptoms:

When I press the back button, it would appear to be stuck. The light for the back button is off(and i can't press it anymore), menu key is still light up. I can't press the menu key, I can press the home button but that just takes a screenshot because of the back key still stuck. Another thing is when I press the power button ONCE, the screen closes and then immediately turns back on.

The only way to make it "unstuck" is to press the power button since it "shuts" off the touch buttons. Even then when once I press the back button again it will get stuck. The back button will start working properly after some time randomly. I cannot relate this problem to any specific applications or actions I do. It seems to happen randomly.

I've done a factory reset before I upgraded. Did an additional two factory resets after the upgrade because of this problem and formatted my sd but the problem still persists.

What can I do to fix this problem if can be?

Thanks

EDIT: Thanks to BlackDino for the solution!

EDIT2: Thanks to Kewjoe to pointing out if you're not on a i9000m rom!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lagghshield:
Well since I couldn't find any solution, I flashed back to stock jh2 but the problem still persists... I updated through kies again to jk4 but same thing. This is really annoying now. Any ideas? =/
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackDino:
Ok, goto your dialer and type the following:

*#*#2663#*#*

Then click Touch key FW update.

Let me know if this fixes the issue for you too,

I had the same issue and after doing this I haven't seen the problem in a number of days.

This may or may not work, I have found this menu on my own and don't know if it will solve anything

This actually "Broke" my back and menu buttons. I'm on Darkyy's 7.5 Rom with Speedmod Kernal K12F 512hz (JL2 Modem). I assume it probably tried to download a FW for an international i9000 and it wasn't compatible with my i9000m hardware. *shrug*.

Trying a factory reset to see if i can get my buttons back.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kewjoe:
Had to flash JL2 back, redo this and get the proper firmware for the i9000m. My buttons are back :)

So to be clear, do not run this command from a non-i9000m ROM or you will lose your buttons! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markhole:
This happened to me out of the blue on JL2. Luckily, it looks like the fix worked for now. Any word of this problem coming back for those who have applied the FW update? Normally i'd apply the fix and forget about it but this device is so janky...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaman:
Just tried this and my buttons broke as well... I am on a Bell Vibrant running the latest Doc ROM and SpeedKernel 12I with JL2 modem.

Guys, this might help you. might not. I have I9000M (Bell), just received replacement phone from Samsung today. Had same problem with stuck buttons. I've tried method from 1-st page and also lost both buttons as some of you! Then I've tried re-flash JL2 twice! It didn't help! I still had no buttons! Then I went to the same menu, and clicked again "Touch key FW update" - I had nothing to loose anyway :) But surprisingly I've got my buttons back and it seems they don't stuck anymore!

And it seems the phone is waaaay less sluggish now! Don't now if it'll last though :) I can't believe how lousy this phone's firmware, despite it's great phone :(

Update Feb, 14 - the problem never showed up again, so it looks that if it's been fixed, it fixed for good.

my touch keys haven't been working since i got the phone, used from a friend. it is a pre-production model as he tells me (he's a samsung employee).

i've tried flashing different kernels / firmwares / roms but none seemed to help restore the keys. i'm currently running Darky's RC10 (Gingerbread). i'm thinking of trying the above mentioned update on the current rom and see the results. got nothing to lose as it is, but too lazy to go all the way to the stock stuff

it says updating....Warning: Do not turn off. been going on for the last 15 min. is that normal?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gewone:
Please, let's knock our precious heads together~

We need to get to the bottom with this. I have a Galaxy Gio (GT-S5660). I received the upgrade (Froyo -> Gingerbread v2.3.3) over Kies after only a couple of days since the purchase. Ever since, this issue has been bothering me. No, I'm not a Galaxy S user, but I found this thread and it feels like I have the right to bump in here. What am I supposed to do? It seems (by reading your thoughts) that this issue would remain if I somehow reverted back to Froyo. So, is it (really) software related, and not something malfunctioning with my touchscreen? I've been thinking a lot lately. Also, I've done numerous full factory resets (using menu some of the times, service code others). The issue always remains. What am I supposed to do? The service code to pull an update on the touchscreen? Have done it several times, it successfully "updates" touchscreen firmware, but the issue remains. As I've come to understand by reading the previous post, I need to revert to the firmware (Froyo) that came with the phone, to be able to "truthfully successfully" pull that service code, is this correct? But Kies would only let me upgrade, not downgrade, so this is not possible :(

Any suggestions?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amro90:
Well since the picture is already burned in to your screen, the only way to fix it is to change the display. If you haven't opened the phone etc. then you can just take it to a service centre. I'm quite sure that burn in is covered under the warranty, so you won't have to pay anything.

You could first try to take the battery out for a couple of hours and see if it helps.

If that doesn't work, you can try to somehow put a bright white on the whole screen on the phone and keep it about an hour.

If none of those solutions work, just take it to a service centre.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebigone1:
But with a new display could i have the same problem? If yes i won't change it.

Thanks very much. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benjamin Dobell:
Well yes, you've had the problem once so you could have it again. But warranties are there to ensure that you have a product that functions as expected. If Samsung are willing replace the item at no charge under warranty then it's obvious this is not the expected behaviour. Based on that logic not only is it your right to get a replacement, Samsung aren't really expecting it to happen again, otherwise burn in would be expected behaviour and not covered under warranty. Anyway my point, although so far, poorly made, is that it's not expected to happen again. Well that and so few other people have the same problem, it's extremely unlikely that it will happen again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amro90:
Exactly. Burn in is probably quite rare, especially in LED and LCD screens. I was actually surprised when I read your post. Old CRT screens used to get burn in quite often if one screen was left on for a long time. But since SGS has an AMOLED screen, the chances of a burn in happening again any time soon is quite slim.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
You can try one of them burn in repair videos that just keep flashing colours that they use to unstuck pixels on lcd screens. You can get the video from youtube or anyplace you can and set media player to loop for a few hours. It might fix burn in.

Written using grafitti on a Palm VII with 8 megs of ram and overclocked to 32mhz!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amro90:
Actually that wouldn't work, since the screen is AMOLED. There isn't any crystals that get stuck in one position. In LCD screens the pixels are tiny crystals that move in a way that a color is reflected to the screen. Sometimes these crystals get stuck in one position and so they show one color constantly. AMOLED screens have tiny LEDs that provide the colors to the screen. These can't get stuck, but they do wear out or burn out which leads to the colors not being produced correctly, and for that reason it'll look like a picture is stuck on the screen. That's something you probably can't do anything about.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebigone1:
Ok i'll see what to do.

[General Questions and Answers] guygu3:
Hi ppl,

After rooting and putting a new rom on the htc desire hd, I got into a problem, that sterted accuring right after the first time I tried rooting the device.

I have a problem with the volume balance - you can hear it by using earphones (one side works and on the other you hear only whit noise), and you can hear it with the speaker (the volume is like "half" hight, even when putting it to max).

Does anyone knows about this problem? I am currently on android 2.2, using modaco build r1 rom, but on leedroid I got the same thing, and even after RRU the device I got the same thing.

I'm starting to suspect the problem is a result of sound balance, although it sounds funny. And if it does, can anyone find or recommend an app that control the sound balance? (L,R balance).

Thanks,

Guy.

So has anyone tried to change the density on the galaxy 3, screenshots perhaps?
[Galaxy 3 General] Szaby59:
Why?

The best is set by default.
[Galaxy 3 General] c0caine:
Cause it does'nt look like it's the best. Every LCD display has one specific resolution that is the sharpest and clearest.
[Galaxy 3 General] Benjamin_L:
The fonts certainly dont look like the display is running at native resolution, but the rest does so maybe its a font problem.

same here can do the density change but you will be stuck @ unclock glass green => u can not unclock the phone anymore => reflash is the only way... do it with caution!
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
This is with the stock launcher, adw is imo the best for density changes.

One is with default (120) the other is with 100. I also tried 90 but it is too low.

You can unlock if you swipe up/down. I didn't manage with a left/right swipe

Also if you are scared just use a temp change (doesnt save the settings and on cold reboot restores default).

Its safe.

I usually keep the default setting and temp change when I need the change
