[Nook Color General] Morantz:
I'm using HoneyComb (HC) v4 on eMMC 2nd edition i got from the following post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=947071

The main problem I'm having with it is that the Market isn't keeping track of what has been installed. First thing I did after flashing it to the emmc (following all directions) was to install Titanium Backup. Once it was installed and I went back into market, I clicked on the MyApps link and it said no installed aplications.

Is this a common issue? I've been reading for weeks, but never seen this issue. I have tried the cache and data fix, but still no go. I didn't have this issue with the 1st edition of HCv4.

I would have posted this in the main tread for the release, but haven't contributed enough to be able to post in that forum.

Thanks for any help!

[Nook Color General] Morantz:
I did follow your directions:

Instructions:

These differ from above instructions, but you can refer to them if you have a doubt.

- Boot to Ext4 Bootable CWR SD with zip file on it.

- In mounts and storage, format /system, /data and /cache -> MANDATORY!

- In the same menu, make sure /system /data and /boot aren't mounted

- make sure sdcard is mounted

- choose zip from sdcard
​

I had flashed the 3.0.0.6 CWR SD to try out Phiremod's CM7 rom. Didn't like it after running Honeycomb. Formatted those three partitions, and checked mounting before installing the zip.

Am I the only one having this issue? I can reload it if you think that might help. I can't wait until there is a version of HC that will do video!

Thanks! Dan
[Nook Color General] Morantz:
I was reading the CM7 Developers Thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=960537 and noticed they are having this same issue with Market.

Looking back at your post, I see you are using the Gingerbread versions of the GApps... So I think this explains the issue.

Hopefully you and them together can get this figured out. I can't wait for a AOSP release of Honeycomb! lol...

hi im using Megatron v1 on my O1. and then i run quadrant advanced it shows me that my bechmark is ~540 sometimes even lower. whats wrong? i think it must be about 1000..:confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] leon0000:
550 is a very good score for our device. over 1000~ is a bug of the benchmark software, this has been discussed in this forum already.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Tasssadar:
I believe you can write "stagefright player" into google just like everyone else :)

Long story short, its a video/audio playback engine, but its little buggy in our android version - some video formats cant be played, and since theres H264 decoding test in Quadrant which fails to proceed, it gives way too good score.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amtrakcn:
But the color does not feel as good as my laptop screen...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjgunn:
Qhd is not a screen technology, its a resolution.

And the problem with the colors isn't that they're dull or unsaturated compared to a super amoled., that's to be expexted. The problem is that the colors are just wrong compared to just about any screen you want to compare it too, load up some websites on the phone and a well calibrated desktop monitor and you'll easily see the difference.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psufan5:
Compared to my captivate im really happy. That thing made skin tones green or orange.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edgeicator:
It has to be reiterated. The oled display technology OVERsaturates the colors. As in, the colors are overly vibrant. The atrix will more accurately display colors.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjgunn:
Ok, saying this again. We (at least I) am not saying this in comparison to a samoled screen, the colors on a regular LCD will obviously never look like that, the colors on the amoled are completely wrong. However that doesn't mean the atrix has them right, just look at the screen compared to a well calibrated computer monitor.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amtrakcn:
The problem is that the LCD on Atrix 4G is not accurate compare to other LCD screens...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scott ISH:
Bumping this to get some attention on this issue.

I'm considering returning my Atrix because of how bad yellows and blues look, compared to OTHER LCDs, not compared to Super AMOLED screens.

I lined up my Captivate, Atrix, iPod Touch 4, and my wife's HTC Evo Shift and fired up Words with Friends on all of them. While it's clear that the Captivate is oversaturated, if you take that out of the equation, the Atrix's colors just look bad compared to the other two LCDs. The yellow tiles look "dirty" like they have a brown or greenish tint to them. The light blues in the tabs on the home screen of Words with Friends look like they have a greenish tint as well.

I've seen a lot of people say that they think it's one of the greatest displays ever, up there on par with the iPhone 4. If that's true, I really hope mine and other people seeing this just have defective models that can be exchanged.

I'm going into my AT&T store sometime tonight or tomorrow in hopes of putting two or more Atrices side by side to compare.

If anyone else seeing this problem could do the same, it would be very helpful. Especially as it seems likely that a random one pulled out in store could have the same defect.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjgunn:
Scott, I have my atrix boxed up ready to go back for the same issues. I went to the at&t store and looked at their 3 demo units, all of them looked the same.

If you go to a verizon store and play with a motorola droid x you'll see that its screen looks the same as well, it's just whatever panel maker motorola is using. People that are saying "It's the greatest screen evar, just as good as the iphone 4" are suffering new gadget love and can't see the flaws. It's not the worst screen ever but it is a definite step down from other manufacturers screens.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scott ISH:
Thanks for the reply, mjgunn, as sad as it makes me :(
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psufan5:
Just compared it to my iPhone 4 - yellow is way way way off. Can they even fix that? iPhone 4 seems to have the best screen by a long shot...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James62370:
I would have to agree, the iphone4 has a pretty good display. It is a bit oversaturated, but does look pleasing to the eye. The iphone is also much smoother when using the pinch to zoom feature. With the Atrix having a dual core processor, I thought it would at least be on par with the iphone, but for some reason it's definitely not as smooth.

Oh well... just my 2 cents.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scott ISH:
So I went in to an AT&T store last night and compared my Atrix with their demo unit.

The colors seem a little bit better, but interestingly, the demo unit's display didn't seem as bright as my Atrix, and it may have had slightly higher contrast.

I got one of the associates to look at it and agree that mine had a slight color cast to it. They said they would do a replacement for me if I came back with my paperwork from my online order, so I said I would do that today or Saturday.

I went straight home and compared my Atrix again to my wife's HTC Evo Shift. In doing that, I still felt like the color on her screen was significantly better than on mine, and in seemed better than I remembered the store's demo unit, as well.

So, I think I need to get my phone and her phone both in there, side by side with the demo unit, and see if I could live with the screen if it was exactly the same as the demo unit. I think probably yes, given the other major advantages of this phone (qHD resolution, Tegra 2, 1GB RAM), but as a graphic designer, bad colors are hard for me to take. And colors that are off in the way the Atrix's screen is off are a graver sin to me than oversaturating a la Super AMOLED.

Bottom line, I'm still on the fence. Has anyone else done any other tests?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TareX:
Wait, so now the iPhone's IPS LCD is oversaturated too? Let's face it: Atrix is weak on colors -thanks to the RGBW PenTile display, where they tried to prolong its life by replacing some Blue tiles with White tiles -which makes colors pale.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psufan5:
It does look great with flesh tones though. Ill give it that.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joewoo:
People who complain about wrong colors have been looking at way oversaturated screens... as a semi advanced photographer, I can agree that the atrix screen is very very good color wise ...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scott ISH:
Or they got an Atrix with a defective display, like me. Ony my Atrix, there's no getting around the fact that yellows look dirty and brown, and that certain shades of blue look greenish.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shep211:
All the colors on mine look fine. Even the yellows. I wonder if they used different screens like htc did on the evo due to demand and limited production of screens.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scott ISH:
I'd say that's definitely possible. I'll report back after going in tomorrow to attempt the exchange.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blind_Guardian:
Please do. I'm very curious. I compared both my wifes and my atrix and they are identical. They both have color issues with yellow. wwwdotlabelsusadotcom/basic_colors_12.jpg (couldn't post link since I'm new) I used that site on both phones and compared them with our old iphones and our ips pc monitors.

I loaded that page on my atrix and the yellow and orange are 5-10% darker then my dell 19inch lcd. How does yours look? I would take a screen shot but cant find a working screenshot app.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scott ISH:
Yep, something like that. They have a "brownish" tint to my eyes. The other color differences are subtle enough that I don't mind, but the yellows and oranges look so bad.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenyu73:
Chrome-to-phone this link if you can or google "basic color chart".

Dont

"chrome-to-phone" the embedded chart below as the resolution is smaller.

The yellows are goldish which in turn messes with greens a bit (RGB color charts). Actually, I think the yellow issue more effects orange.

I really dont care much, but its interesting none the less.

Gizmodo has a story about electric bikes being wireless. The bike pictured is all yellow so I compared it on the phone vs my laptop display. The yellow on the bike looks better on the Atrix to me, but if you change the viewing angle it changes the tone. I'm wondering if many people complaining about yellow aren't looking straight on?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scott ISH:
I don't know about others, but I'm definitely looking straight on, and have tried all brightness levels, including max.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangledskein:
So, itried it on full. Yellows look more golden rod. However, as with the wait on captivate... Just sit for a couple months. Someone will fix this.

This is a killer phone and particularly with the ces love a popular one... Everyone can remember that blue tint from last year.

So, be kewl and hang around.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snlu178:
Google's take on why they changed the Nexus S colors today:

"With your new OTA complete, you may notice a slight difference in the way colors are displayed on your Nexus S. For Nexus S, we have adjusted the color temperature settings to more accurately reflect darker colors at all brightness levels. The Gingerbread UI being darker, we found that the colors were not as accurate when the device was being used at lower brightness levels. For example, some users reported that the initial color temperature was too high leading to some darker greys having a reddish tone; with the new color temperature this is no longer the case."

Perhaps Moto had the same reasoning for our phones?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonedub:
I had posted this in the other screen thread from a couple days ago, but yellow def looks golden/lime. I think an update will come out to fix the colors though.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blind_Guardian:
Yup, that's it. I figure it's a software issue that can either be fixed with a MOD or an update from moto.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m11kkaa:

From what I remember about the update scheduling, MS can push updates past carrier certification if the carrier delays until the next update is ready. I would love to see MS use these little micro-updates to game that system. Anything that helps to reduce AT&T's interference in the use of its own network is fine by me.
[Focus General] mcorrie1121:
That would be pretty tricky, but I would think MS would at least hold off until carriers have shown a pattern of delays.

Has anyone got the update yet or a notification of it? I checked my wifes phone and it said no update through the phone or zune. It's completely stock (except the memory) so I'm hoping it won't have any problems.

Let down in wireless promises

I'm am so let down with Carriers & Manufacturers promising updates! I had the Captivate when it came out, and was happy with the expection of 2.2 Froyo being released. As I was waiting I rooted the phone and ran a developers version of 2.2, which was great. In Jan I decided to swap for the Focus because it was just a simplier phone to use. I noticed on the MS website it even notated an expected release of an update in Jan.

All in all, when you buy a phone I would recommend not giving into the impulse of buying it just because they say updates are coming, especially with Samsung. I do love both phones, but this is just terrible. Seems like technology has gotten to the point that if what you have isn't ready NOW, then it's already old news and updates are just a fantasy.

For gods sake, now there's the new 4G HTC Inspire running Froyo promising Gingerbread.

Actually, the only thing I wish I could do on the Focus was watch youtube videos in high quality using 3G... Hahaha... I guess making ring tones too, but that's it!

AT&T NOT holding back update

I had to speak to the Technical Support area of the AT&T Warranty Center today. All of a sudden, after 2 months, the battery icon at the top of the page ehibited the following symptoms:

. Blinks on and off, sometimes with the "plug" showing on the battery icon even though the phone is not on the charger. Blinks about once every 2 seconds.

. "Beeps" everytime it blinks.

. Screen will not turn off because this icon is blinking.

I was told that Technical Support had a meeting yesterday and that this is a know issue with WP7 by Microsoft and that the upcoming late February/early March update will contain a fix for this issue.

I asked why I had not recived an update notification and whether AT&T was holding up this update. The TS person said absolutely not, especially since this update will contain bug fixes that affect currently released phone models. AT&T is not holding back the update.

This person also told me that the issue is suspected to be caused by a virus that enters the phone when browsing the Internet and that warranty does not cover viruses. Well, that set me off. Their phone, their OS, their browser. I'll address this to be sure.

But, the update is coming, contains fixes, and AT&T is NOT holding it back.
[Focus General] powersquad:
lol. Virus entering the phone via web browsing in wp7. Don't fall for that.
[Focus General] JamesAllen:
Virus

No, not a chance. I already contacted the store manager who I purchased the phone from and he has guaranteed a warranty replacement. I am still going to wait for the update to see if what the ST&T TS person was speaking the truth. If I have to, I'll take the SIM out and put it back in my FUZE running 6.5.x.
