[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ambious:
Hi there

My workplace sends me lost of email with tables in them which are wider than the display.

However, no matter how I set up my email client (and I've tried several, including stock, K9, and even forwarding to Gmail!), I can not see the entire width of the table.

Horizontal scrolling is a bust on all of these, and zooming out doesn't work. It's as if the email programs ignore the width of the table and only refer to the width of the email itself.

Anyone knows a way around it, or perhaps knows an email client with 'unlimited' horizontal scrolling?

(p.s. - I know it's probably due to the retardation of the people who send me those emails, but it's a big company and they use automated systems to send them so I doubt I can get them to change their ways....)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mally2:
how about reading your emails with the screen horizontally, does the table still not fit,
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ambious:
It does give me a little more reading space, but not enough to read the entire table. :-(

[Nook Color General] ctos:
I played with my NC nearly one week and I like it. But I want to know dose anyone notice the screen of NC is flickering. If you couldn't understand what I mean, please refer to below video,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDnBSWF44rM

it is not so obvious in real world as in video, but it is noticeable and uncomfortable. I have ipad with IPS LCD but never find this kind of issue. It like some kind of low fresh rate issue in early PC screen, so I want to know whether it is possible to fix it via adjust screen refresh rate in OS level.

Your comments are welcome!
[Nook Color General] s52m3:
Mine does that but only on the gray background, otherwise I don't see any flickering.
[Nook Color General] themirthfulswami:
I exchanged my first NC because of this issue. The salespeople thought I was nuts until I demonstrated it for them. My new one still does it but MUCH more faintly and not all the time. I do believe that Barnes & Noble is aware of it (or at least that's something I read in another thread here somewhere..).

It seems to only happen at middling levels of brightness. My first NC exhibited the issue under very specific settings and times, the brightness had to be set between 20%-40% and I had to be displaying a solid area of mid-range colors. I saw it all the time when the screen would dim to display a menu.

From personal experience, you MIGHT be able to get a unit that's better if you exchange. It does seem to be a very common issue, though. Rumor has it that it might be fixable through a firmware update.. we shall see.
[Nook Color General] spikey911:
I had a pocket pc with this problem many moons ago...The fix was to adjust a trim pot on the display...

No idea if anything like that would apply here, but just wanted to mention it.
[Nook Color General] dylanz:
I do have similar problem, could any people advise on how to check the refresh rate and increase it?

Many thanks.
[Nook Color General] 911jason:
Are you planning on rooting or installing another ROM on your Nook? The overclock kernels fix this issue.
[Nook Color General] deadbot1:
from what I see there in the video, if that is what you are seeing...not refresh rate. Rather it looks like a cycling in the backligt control. Almost looks like the PWM duty cycle is out of wack...would explain why it happens at mid range of the brightness.
[Nook Color General] Slack3r:
My first nook color had this problem, I solved it by leaving the brightness up all the time which seemed to prevent it. I got it replaced for other display issues, and my new one doesn't flicker at any brightness, so yeah it sounds like a defect.
[Nook Color General] Geniusdog254:
Not a defect. It's a problem with stupid coding in the backlight driver.

They set the PWM (pulse width modulation) rate too low, at 40Hz if I remember right. It's easy to fix by setting it up to 60Hz in the driver, which I did in my old Quickie kernel. Totally gets rid of the flicker, and I've seen no side-effects, nor have any been reported to me.

I don't have the time to keep up with the kernel anymore, and for some reason no other kernel dev has pulled my driver fix into theirs. You might talk to Dalingrin or one of the other devs if you really want it, and put them in contact with me at geniusdog254@gmail.com and I can help them get it integrated into their kernel.
[Nook Color General] fattire:
Can you link to the github commit?

Tx
[Nook Color General] 911jason:
Hmmmm.... my Nook definitely had the flicker issue on most gray colors, especially at dimmer brightness settings. I'm not using your kernel, but I am using Dalingrin's. I haven't seen flicker in months. Could this issue be limited to the stock ROM only?
[Nook Color General] Maverick777:
It appears that way from my experience. I was running the dual boot package with stock and CM7 nightly.

The stock rom flickered very noticeably on greyish type backgrounds. Using CM7 and now Phiremod, the flickering has totally gone away.
[Nook Color General] fattire:
Actually the fix is already in init.encore.rc:

write /sys/devices/omapdss/display0/timings 68000,1024/70/200/40,600/10/11/10

That said, it's going into the driver too.

I'm also paying 30 bucks a month for mine and under services it's called 4G Web - Unlimited.

However my mom has a Samsung Vibrant and under services for her it says Android Unlimited Web.

I think she pays 25 for that.

What's the difference b/t your 20 dollar plan and my 30?

And how would I go about getting this option?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmw407:
It's the same plan. The difference is in marketing terms. You need to call retentions or what they call loyalty department.

Ask then if you could apply the android preferred web plan since your friend(s) have it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Biofall:
It looks dumb and feels kind of bulky, but there is no way I'm turning off my phone, taking off the case, and prying off that flimsy batter door all of the time. I hate that process and feel like something is breaking every time. Big pregnant evo for me.
[EVO 4G Accessories] SouthernEvo:
I still have to laugh when people talk about the added "bulk" extended batteries like the Seidio adds to the phone . Most of the time people who see my phone and realize I have an extended battery usually respond with "Well thats not that much bigger" . Im not shooting down your opinion I just feel this obsession with have a super thin phone is a bit overboard . Hell I remember years ago when phones were on the trend of being super small , hell I remember seeing one model that when it folded up I swore the damn thing was just alittle bitter than a book of matches . Now the trend seems to be bigger phones or atleast leaning in that direction (examples : HTC EVO , DROID X , Epic 4G isnt small either) . Overall like the OP outlined it comes down to a choice , longevity using all the features of the phone (bigger batter) or slim phone with "enough" power to make it through the day if you micro manage all the features on the phone . Ive tried both worlds , Ive tried the stock battery which did make it through the day but just barely . I currently have the 3500mah battery installed and I can tell you this now I wouldnt go back to the stock battery . The added size now fits the size of the phone in my mind . The phone is already tall and wide , Hell the Droid X is even taller and wider (actutal casing of the phone not the screen) . In the end its your choice and its your phone , whatever makes you happy with it you go with it . Screw what everyone else might say about it LOL
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
As a business man who wears a suit every day, my biggest issue is that there is no way to carry my phone (other than a belt clip which is way too geeky for me) in my suit pocket or pants without looking like I have either breast implants or an erection.

Actually, you have your "pregnant" EVO "all the time". You only have to change your battery once :) Still, everyone has their preference and that's why I created the thread.

** Being a flash-a-holic, I have become quite accustomed to pulling my battery (boot loops and all) so I am probably less intimidated by the process than the average user. For me, changing a battery out takes maybe 10 seconds at the most. When compared to carrying around a thicker, heavier phone all day, the choice is clear (10 seconds of hassle vs 24/7 discomfort).

Again, no "right" answer here.
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
I use spare batteries. I have an extended but I hate the way it makes my phone look and feel. I keep a couple charged spares in the car at all times and another couple in my computer bag just in case. I would much rather do that then have an ugly block sticking out the back of my phone. My phone lasts well over a day on a charge so I never really end up swapping them out except for in the morning when I put a fresh one in. I usually still have about 50% left when I swap them out in the morning. I never charge my phone directly, I always just swap the battery with a fresh one and charge them with my wall charger. It only takes a minute to swap them and the daily reboot never hurts. I bought all my batteries on ebay (except for my seidio extended which NEVER gets used) and all eight of them cost me about $50 combined, which is cheaper than the one seidio.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
+1 My reasoning exactly.

This is purely theory, but I have the feeling that younger users and those in manual labor type jobs will opt for the extended battery, whereas those of us where we have to wear a suit to work and sit at a desk or visit clients all day would prefer the swap-out just for appearance sake. A construction foreman is not going to want to swap out a battery with dirty hands in 30 degree cold but he(she) won't mind how the fatter phone looks.

In conclusion, those more concerned with the look and feel of the phone will opt for extra oem's, those who are looking for pure utility will opt for extended.
[EVO 4G Accessories] AGSLight:
I've had my EVO for almost a full month, and yet its still caseless and exposed because of this dilemma. I'm leaning more towards keeping it slim and having a wide variety of cases to choose from. Obviously going to something like the 3500 would require a new battery door. So, what's the maximum battery size the EVO can hold before needing the new door? I've seen 1600, 1700, 1750, 1800, and 2000 mah batteries. Also, would these slightly stronger batteries make ANY difference? I've seen reports saying those batteries are tested and not actually as strong as they say.

Thanks in advance....

Ok so awhile back I downloaded and installed a leaked 2.2 version for the epic and its been ok just tired of it, but now when trying to go to a different rom nothing works, clockwork has always givin me some issues on this phone an on m old one that got replaced for bad proximity sensors.

What am I doing wrong? I tried the rom manager method of getting clockwork's mod to work but nothing, tried re flashing the recovory image and that failed for some read only issue now that I've never seen before and is clockworks mod supposed to stick cause the one time I got it to work so I could install this rom (which sucks) after I was it never worked again? This is just really annoying for me since I never have had issues in the past with rom installed htc was easier the g1 and hero where do damn easy what is with this epic crap not doing what I want it to do?
[Epic 4G General] helchez:
Have you tried the one click method for root and clockwork? You need to have the samsung drivers installed and you have to get another usb cable. The one that comes with the epic is only good for charging.

[Epic 4G General] sryans2004:
It is very easy to install ROM's on the Epic... So i'm thinking you're doing something wrong.

Are you sure you have clockwork installed and NOT stock? Back when I first started working with the Epic (Rooting & Flashing) I had problems figuring out what clockwork really was.. Clockwork is GREEN & Stock is BLUE.

Also another thing I did was unrooted and then rooted using the latest One Click Root W/ Clockwork, after that everything seemed to work fine. IF I am correct, the ROM Manager Clockwork does not work for the Epic? Well at least it never worked for mine.

Is clockwork suppsed to stick though? So that ny time I boot into recovery it should be there, that's wat I thought should happen with changing the recovery image but it never stuck and won't load.

If that command doesn't change anything ill take a video and show what happpens when trying to chage the rom's, I can't be the only person having the problem.....
[Epic 4G General] grimproductions:
tried that command say's premissions denied?? I have super users permissions and have a custom rom wtf is going on here? this just does not make sense to me any more at all, tried to run the root file again on the phone and that failed saying its a read only file system?

also tried to run a "unroot.batch" file and same issue says that its a read only file system??
[Epic 4G General] thomasskull666:
Does the su command work? If not then agan, you aren't rooted. You will know because the $ sign will change to #. Try running the one click root method again, specifically the 2.5 version that contains root and cwm. I don't understand how you can't be rooted though with a custom ROM. Somehow something isn't working, maybe the mount script is corrupt but who knows. I suggest odin back to stock DK28 and root and cwm from there with the newest one-click. Let me know if that helps, also feel free to pm me if you need specifics

So you can't take a debian arm package and just install on android because the difference are to big. Only a static link arm binary could run perhaps as service.
