it applies to Nexus S and SGS using CM7 (the kernel-sources are based on Nexus S sources)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] need4steer:
Apparently non of these works for us, so we're stuck with the bluish screen :(

Edit: I posted a thread in which I summarize all I know about this issue.

Edit: This issue is solved. Please look in my thread for more information.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xsenman:
from what I can gauge from all this, is that certain parts (screens) used by Samsung were not capable of screen variations in/for later builds as such they totally declined further upgrades for all. This would be common in manufacturing the initial device (galaxy S) as trial and error would play a part in releasing the most cost effective product and the part used coming from different sources. The Galaxy S had 20 versions, meant for different locations and pricing, so the componaents would be from from various sources, some of top quality and others of lower grade going to lower priced models meant for third world locations.

so it may be wise to see when and where this models having blue screen problems are cropping up most.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] need4steer:
That's a very interesting thinking.

I just found out that this problem appears to be a known issue which is caused from incorrect calibration data which exists in some devices and affected by cyanogenmod 9+ (the later 9 ROMs, some of the older don't have this issue)

I think I'll post a new thread to help people understand this problem and its origin, and in the same time I might ask them their model and location, according to your great suggestion.

Thanks again!

bluish screen - dark blue tint / hue after flashing AOSP ICS and above on GT-I9000

There's a known problem for a little amount of Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 devices that are getting bluish screen after flashing AOSP Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0.x) and above.

By bluish screen I mean that there's a dark blue color, a blue tint / hue all over the screen.

This bluish screen appears everywhere in the ROM, in the recovery, and even when charging the phone while it's off.

According to DerTeufel1980 and pawitp, this issue is caused by the updated framebuffer driver of the Nexus S in the CyanogenMod 9 kernels, and the actual problem is that some devices contain incorrect calibration data.

I posted a thread in which I summarize all I know about this issue.

This issue is fixed thanks to pawitp.

We can flash this fixed CyanogenMod 11 nightly.

Any release from now on will be updated with this fix.

There are detailed instructions in pawitp's thread - [NIGHTLY][ROM][4.4] CyanogenMod 11 for Samsung Galaxy S

This is the official thread of CyanogenMod 11 in this forum.

Please note

that in CyanogenMod's download site we should flash any version that is newer than cm-11-20140211-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd.zip which was posted today, the 11.02.2014, at 04:51:57 (according to the "Date Added" column in the download site)

I'd like to appreciate pawitp for his willing to help and for his truly tremendous effort to the community.

Thanks a lot!

I am trying to connect my zoom to my computer so I can transfer the TV shows I spent hours converting yesterday but my Vista laptop cannot install the drivers. It is really starting to frustrate me!!

I tried turning USB debugging on and connecting and nothing. I tried turning it off and nothing. I went to Motorola's site and downloaded their moto helper and nothing. I tried all of the USB ports on my computer and nothing. I tried going into the device manager and updating the drivers and nothing. It shows the MTP device with the exclamation point but nothing I do works.

My husband plugs it into his netbook that has Win 7 and it installs everything in seconds. What else can I do?
[Xoom General] keitht:
Upgrade to Windows 7! :) Seriously, Vista is horrible. Try removing the MTP device from device manager with the Xoom not plugged in. Reboot and try again. If that fails, when you double click the MTP device in Device Manager, does it show an error or anything?
[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
I have encountered the exact same problem.

Will not for the life of me connect to my Vista Laptop.

Connects in 10 seconds flat to my Windows 7 desktop the first time i tried.

I've been porting everything I want to put on my Xoom to my Desktop.

I tried lots, wish there was more I could say. But Motodrivers didn't help me any either.

Also when it connects to my Windows 7 comp, it will not install MZ600, but works fine for file transfers. I don't know what that driver does, but i know it won't install.

I have a lot of issues with my Vista though, it won't install my digital camera, the digitial camera drives from my iphone, and its sd card reader stopped working.

But, all I can say is port port port.
[Xoom General] keitht:
I found this using a Google search for other devices that use MTP on Vista with problems. May work for you:

1) Go here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...60-E862-4F19-BB26-C0CAFE798955&displaylang=en

2) Press the Continue button (Near the Validation Required)

3) Press the Download button (Near the genuine Microsoft software)

4) In case that the download hasn't started automatically within 30 seconds, press the Start Download button.

5) Save the file to your Desktop where you can easily find it.

6) Execute the file (Double click on the mouse's left button).

7) Next -> Repair -> Repair -> Finish -> Choose "Yes" so the system restarts itself.

Let me know if this works so I can add it to my FAQ list.
[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
I will try that when i get back home and let you know. Thanks for all of your help! I am leaning towards upgrading to Windows 7 if that doesn't work. I need to be able to use my laptop with my xoom.

Oh and I don't get any error messages when I go to device manager. It just tells me all drivers are up to date. If my laptop had a face I would punch it in it...
[Xoom General] keitht:
You will be happier with Windows 7 regardless. But do keep us updated.

EDIT: Try this if everything else fails: http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-...vers/USB-and-PC-Charging-Drivers?pubid=987654
[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
I tried both things and it is still a no go. I guess upgrading to Windows 7 is my only option at this point.
[Xoom General] Spawn026:
When you go to device manager and get no error message, did you go near the bottom and expand usb devices to see if there is a yellow exclamation mark? What i do is go to device manager and have the device plugged in already. If the device isnt obvious i unplug it while watching device manager to see if something drops from the list and then plug it back in to see it reappear. If that doesnt work i recall vista having a "broken" usb driver that was fixed with sp1 or manually replacing it. I will see if i can dig it up
[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
I go down to portable devices under device manager and see the MTP device with the exclamation point. I try right clicking and updating the driver and it tells me the driver is up to date. I try uninstalling and then plugging back in. I get the same fail message when it tries to install the drivers. It does the same thing with all three usb ports on my laptop.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
When you double click on it and see the property page, what does it say is wrong?
[Xoom General] Spawn026:
heres one of the older fixes that may work

[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
This is what it says:

I click on the check for solutions and it doesn't do anything at all.
[Xoom General] keitht:
You did try this?

http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-...tware_and_Drivers/USB-and-PC-Charging-Drivers

Outside of that, I have no other suggestions other than upgrading to Windows 7 or google your issue.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
I don't know if this will help...

but go to Start-> run -> type cmd -> hit enter

type this in... Net localgroup Administrators local service /add

hit enter.

Reboot and try plugging it in again/uninstalling re-installing the device.
[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
Yeah, I tried that. This is frustrating but I guess I will be upgrading.

I appreciate everyone's help!
[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
I hadn't tried this but when I entered that I got that access is denied.
[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
Just for fun I tried the live chat with Motorola. After trying all of the stuff I had already tried I was told I would need to talk to a level two Rep tomorrow. Sigh. Vista is irritating.
[Xoom General] keitht:
100 thumbs down on Vista!
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
I may have skipped a step. When you search for 'cmd' in the start menu, right click on cmd and hit run as administrator first.

This is the only solution I've found on the web so far where people say it works!
[Xoom General] ALIASgirl23:
Still a no go. It did the same thing and advise the MTP driver failed.

Hello,

Desire and Desire HD share the same arm CPU of 1Ghz, it is hard to get full board and chip-set specs of both.

My question is why there are lags when using a DHD ROM on the desire?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
No, they have slightly different CPUs (chipsets).

The CPU listed it as the same, but it is a newer architecture + more RAM = more juice.

how to completely remove the clockwork mod from my DHD. I even flashed the stock rom, and when i go to factory reset after powering down and booting into stock recover, it keeps showing clockwork recovery menu
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flussen:
You have to flash a RUU to completely revert to stock (you still have radio S-OFF after flashing a RUU).

Bootloader is S-ON again and cwm is gone ;)

After reverting to stock rom, it still goes into clockwork, if i try to do factory reset.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubenswing:
Yes, even after flashing RUU, it was still going into clockwork, then I searched for a recovery.img file for DHD, I found it and flashed it using the fastboot command and then reported and voila!, it was back into stock recovery and no more clockwork. Nevertheless, thank u all for ur support.

[G Tablet General] tnerb123:
I have not seen any threads on this yet but thought I would post it. I am new to the GTablet but have an android cell so I am not new to ROMs. So lets see who has some great feedback about there favorite stable ROM.
[G Tablet General] tedlogan42:
TNT Lite is probably the most stable, since it's a fixed stock with Gapps added and TNTcrap removed. It's the one I go with because the tablet has become integral to my work, and I want it to work as much as possible.

I haven't tried Vegan, but I've heard with the supplements that it's a very fast, very stable ROM. I don't know about the Ginger variants (as the posts say, they're experimental), haven't tried gADAM, and the reports of market issues have kept me away from Bitrix's work.
[G Tablet General] Butch1326:
+1 for TnT Lite.
[G Tablet General] opnsrcaddict:
I'm also new to the grab and have been experimenting with the different roms. Currently I'm using vegan, but I do miss some if the tablet customized elements of tnt lite. The reason I changed over was because I wasn't able to use a third party keyboard. Is there a work around for this? In terms of stability, they both seem very good.
[G Tablet General] gpzjack:
I used tnt and now vegan. Tnt ran fine..only problem i had was music and videos on sd card wouldn't be found by players. Switched to vegan and really haven't had any problems.
[G Tablet General] travisdjack:
I have a gTab on the way. I want to be able to use a keyboard and mouse with it while at home. I take it Vegan would be the best option for this? I greatly appreciate any input. Thanks to everyone that develops for the gTab. I can't wait to get it.
[G Tablet General] Deleted member 2332029:
In terms of stability, TnTlite and VEGAn are pretty much on par, no random FCs from just about anything I use, except for Colorize Widgets on TnTLite, so I use VEGAn 5.1.1 for now, also because I prefer the status bar of VEGAn.

All the gingerbread ROMs have a fubared market (No "My Apps", Can't purchase, Maps fails). And for me, I regularly get FCs on a bunch of things. But they do have teh snappys, scrolling is super smooth, and things load up really fast. In addition, the gingerbread ROMs are clearly marked as Experimental, so you kind of expect things to break in them.

Hope that helps :)
[G Tablet General] B3ATTY:
Have been using Vegan for a month after stock TnT started FCing.

Other than a flaky market, all has been OK

Saturday last week, my Samsung Focus burned the display itself after 25 days old in Vietnam (I bought it from AmazonWireless on Jan 08, unlocked it with fastgsm). Right now, after turned on it displays nothing and the burned conner become very hot that I have to unplug its battery. :mad:

I sent an email with pictures to Samsung US but they refused and asked me to call them (pictures are thousand words but they didn't accept??? ). I wonder if there is anyone has the same problem to me and how Samsung resolve it.

[Touch Diamond CDMA] mHo2:
Hi,

My LCD screen cover (not a screen protector) is looking pretty scratched up, i'm looking at replacing it.

It also looks like the screen cover == the digitizer, and it is really only possible to replace the digitizer with replacing the LCD screen as well. (I read that they are near-vacuum sealed). This isnt an issue.

However, My carrier is MTS, therefore i have an MTS phone, I was wondering if i could purchase a 'Sprint' LCD screen and digitizer and have it fit seamlessly with my version?

(Unfortunatly XDA does not let me post links, there are a couple ebay ads for a sprint LCD screen/digitizer.)

It seems as though the only difference is the small logo at the top, am i correct?
[Touch Diamond CDMA] jessesse:
There is a differance. One has rounded corners. I tried to do the opposite and they aren't inter- changeable. Check eBay.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobapunk:
I know this gets asked a lot, but I have a question that I think might be a little different.

Right now I have an AT&T Captivate Running FROYO.UCKB1

I was going to flash Cog4 today but I just realized that the MobleTechVid Gingerbread theme would not work with that ROM. Ever since I saw Josh's vid on his theme, I have wanted it!

I just ran across his Serendipity ROM review and it looks like it has most if not all of the Gingerbread theme built into it.

Basically, I have told myself to skip the Cog4 and just do the Serendipity ROM, but I guess I just wanted a 3rd party endorsement of that decision.

I do need my phone to be 100% usable and reliable as I use it for work, which is why I was leaning toward the COG4 ROM (stability). I can not give up usability/stability for pretty graphics.

On a side note, from what I have read here, it seems as if I need to use Odin to flash back to 2.1 before flashing a custom ROM (via ClockWorkMod). I am fine with that, but I was just wondering if, since UCKB1 came out, anyone has developed a way to flash a ROM with out having to go backwards first.

Thanks!

If you like kb1 cognition is the sane exact thing. If you want something different flash serendipity
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mthayer1:
I just flashed this rom on my captivate. So far it is working flawlessy.

I was also on 2.2 Froyo, and used Odin to go back to stock. It's seems like a useless step, but i did it. It only takes a few minutes and for safety sake it's better to do it right just in case.

Josh has awesome vids. I don't think i would have done it this quickly if i had to use some of the others that i've watched.

Josh=:D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavsoldier19d:
Cognition was my first ROM from stock. It worked well as advertised. And like yourself, I wanted stability over anything else. Its great for being close to stock, with running more smoothly, and had a few extra features. Then I decided to try Serendipity. Serendipity has much more added features and is much more customizable, while at the same time, still provides stability. In my experiences, I would put Serendipity in the middle between Cognition and other roms like Andromeda, which is even more themed than Serendipity. IMO, Serendipity is the happy medium between the stock experience and flashy themed roms. It seems like you already did your research on how to flash, so I would say give Serendipty a try. If its too much or not what you are looking for, go back to Cognition. But it seems like the developers of Cognition (designgears) are straying away from Captivate development, as they already discontinued their other rom, Perception.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
actually, your concept of Andromeda is wrong. Andromeda is first and foremost a 'stock' experience and there is a version that is heavily themed....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobapunk:
When you say "this rom" do you mean Serendipity or Cognition?

From what I have read, you have to flash back to 2.1 if you are using ClockWorkMod to flash your new ROM because 2.1 and 2.2 use different recovery modes and ClockWork will not work with the recovery mode that 2.2 uses (I think it is 2e that 2.1 and ClockWork use and 3e that 2.2 uses).

2 more questions. What would hapen if I just put the ROM .zip on the root of phone, named it update.zip, rebooted into recovery, and "reinstalled packages"? Wouldn't this flash the ROM w/o using ClockWork and therefore not having to flash back to 2.1?

When I used Kies to go from 2.1 to 2.2 that seemed to be what it did and it kept all my aps, SMS, phone log, and all my other settings (home screens and widgets had to be reset). I do understand the "best" way is to return to out of box stock and then flash, but then there is a lot to re-setup...

Last thing. The only thing about the Gingerbread theme that I don't want is the orange color when you press an on screen button. I prefer the blue color that I have now with 2.2. Is there an "easy" way to change it from the orange back to blue in Serendipity?

Thanks for helping this newb!
