What is breathing? - Nexus One General

I've read references to the nexus one breathing light but have no idea what does that mean?
I've seen my nexus one blink the track ball white for no apparent reason so I assume it is breathing. But what is it actually doing when breathing?
Thanks.

It's just what they call it.

Good question. I've been looking for this answer too but I never had the courage to make a post.

But my phone doesn't have lungs, how does it breath?

Basically since the phone trackball light fades in and fades out, it is essentially 'breathing'.

I've seen mine do it often. Ive quickly checked and see it happens when its syncing and updating GPS.

Anyone else with this screen problem

Around the notification bar area, touch the screen hard. Does your screen feel like its clicking in like the blackberry storm? I have a problem and I'm wondering if it's only me

Mine doesn't do that.
Are you pressing down?

Yeah, not super hard, as I don't want to break it. But a lot harder then I would be if I was trying to use the touch screen or buttons.
If I were you I'd go to best buy and ask to play with the demo. Try it on the demo, if it doesn't happen, exchange yours.
Thanks for the advice

Did you try it with the screen off or on because mine seems to do it when on only
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Mine does NOT click or feel like it's clicking when touching (moderate pressure) the notification bar area (right, left or center), with the screen on or off.
None of the three Nexus S handsets I've gone through so far have done that. Take it back. Samsung's QC needs a lot of work.
Thanks alot for the replies guys. I'll be exchanging it
I unfortunately just realized I have this problem,right near the FCC woohoo 3rd nexus s
yea it sucks tell me how your exchange goes

Nexus LED

So has anyone else LED turned blue? Mine is really, really blue.

Iirc the n1 has a teal blue led as well as a dark blue one. What seems to be the issue?
sent from the passengers side of my best friend's ride tryna holla at you.
Its the camera flash LED. It used to be pure white. The one day I noticed it had turned blue. Pictures taken with the flash on a blue washed if you will. That's the only minor issue. It doesn't bother me much. Just curious to see if anyone else's had done the same.

oohhh the camera flash LED i though you were talking about the led ball on the front side of the phone haha.
so when the flash activates for a picture, instead of flashing white it flashes a blue-ish light now? i havent experienced that issue personally myself, sorry
Yeah it flashes blue and in a darkish area when taking pictures it causes the pictures to come out bluish. Like I said, just curious if I'm the only one or if it is something others are experiencing. Doesn't bother me too much.

My Desire is the same now. I blame it on me using the flashlight on Death ray mode too often. I assume its half burned out.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA
Lol! That makes sense I do the same.
Sent from my Nexus One using xda premium
Rarely use it as a flashlight; instead I use a bright screen via 'Color Flashlight' app. Mine is still white.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA
Well I found it hard not to use it since it is better than any flashlight I have owned and didn't drain the battery much for the amount I was using it. Better than worrying if your flashlight battery is going to die (no gauge on them)

Abuse the led and it will start dying, big surprise. I suspect walmart has better flashlights than the N1's led, but any decent flashlight will kill it on both flexibility (low to full output), battery life, and of course output.
Look up Fenix. Cheap, work well. Get a 10 pack of 123 batteries online for $15 and it'll last you 5 years or more.
I find the camera always worked better in well lit areas without use of the flash anyways so I don't blame the phone for the led burning out and it doesn't bother me that much. At least it still works.
Sent from my MildWild for Desire using XDA
Lol yeah same here. I got me a surefire 1000 lumen led flashlight now. Brighter than anything I've ever seen. But the blue led looks cool on my Nexus lol.
Sent from my Nexus One using xda premium
After using it for a while and after the LED gets hot, its color will distort. It is a problem with the bulb itself and not any other hardware, such as the plastic piece that covers it. It is a result of age; therefore, there is no way to 'fix' the issue other than just to finally upgrade to a new device or replace the bulb if even possible.
I use my LED flash as a flashlight at max brightness and mine still is not blue yet, wonder why mines seems to be more durable...

[Q] Random vertical "black line" flash, not permanent, nor dead pixels?

I've not seen it mentioned, but I want to know if others have noticed.
So far all 3 of my CK60 devices have this. Originally I thought it might have been the app Thumb Keyboard. But my other two without the app display the same.
At about 1 inch from the right side edge of the display portion of the screen, a vertical black line will flash. I've only really noticed it while browsing. Not entirely sure it's not just an issue in Chrome, as I also have the stock ICS browser installed, but only use that to view flash videos.
Each has been unlocked and rooted, it's so random and happens so rarely that I couldn't remember to diagnose it pre-root/unlock..
Anyone else notice this?
Would like to know if something common, before erasing my unit to test clean stock.
I will get the random black line flash on some apps. Such as XDA, and chrome. Doesn't ever happen on a homescreen, or in game or anything.
Don't bother with wiping, it won't do you any good.
Same here. Think it's a software problem.

Thanks for chiming in guys, appreciate it, it doesn't "really" bother me, but it is a "glitch". Good to know.

Yea I have the same problem also this is the second replacement.... screen flicker on the first now on this I get the screen flicker and lines on CK60 device
I flashed Motleys kernel for the performance but it also got rid of the flashing black line. I didn't really think about until yesterday when I realized I haven't seen it happen in a couple days now ever since I flashed it.

I noticed it first day I started playing with my Nexus 7.
I also have the screen flickering problem, but I'm pretty sure they are completely unrelated.
Hopefully there will be an update to fix it.
I flashed the motley kernel and it stopped.

Flashing black lines?!?!?
Yep, same thing here. It isn't a huge deal, as it's just a split second flash. My only concern is that it may get worse as time progresses. I REALLY hope Google is working on some patches to address some of these Software issues.
Other than that, I am very satisfied with my Nexus 7, it's an excellent buy!
Google, please, you guys need to really tighten up your SQA department!

Make sure to read the instructions before doing this. It does take care of the black line for me I haven't seen it in over a week now.

Also over clocking isn't needed to get rid of the line flash. It is a nice feature to have. And for the GPU I would suggest the 484... Also be sure to give motley a "thanks" for his work.

I am seeing the same thing on my C70. I also sent in a support request to ASUS and directed them here. Will post back if/when they reply with something useful.
Noticed a horizontal black line flash across the bottom while in portrait mode. Happened while on xda a few days ago. Haven't seen it since

Stuck Pixels?

I have had my Nexus 7 for around 3 weeks, it was perfect, I was so happy with it and I had no problems with the screen lift/bleed like many other people. I knew it was risky to buy the first batch after all of the problems reported on these forums, but now my Nexus 7 has the blue and red stuck pixels that are only visible on a black background with the brightness turned up, I can also see them when I boot the tablet. I have added pictures below, although it makes it look like the screen is bleeding, it is not, it is just the way the photo was taken. I bought it from Tesco Direct so I have a week left to return it, should I or is it risky because I could get a device with even more faults?
Thanks
From those photos it looks like there is no problem at all. Where are we supposed to be looking? Are they in the middle of the screen?
The judgement call is yours. Can you live with the fault? If you can't take it back. The chances of repeatedly getting a dud are slim.

Yes. It is the purple streak, sorry for being unclear, this is my first post on this forum, I guess I should have circled it in red.
You could try one of the many dead pixel apps from google play

[Q] Any Nexus 4's Without Backlight Bleed?

I've already tried out 3 brand new Nexus 4's, and they all exhibit light bleed around the top right corner.
I know, I know; I'm being obsessive or nit-picky. But, just humor me for a second, and chime in on the topic....
Anybody got a Nexus 4 without any lightbleed whatsoever? You should be comfortable around 30-50% brightness and have no uneven backlighting around the top border....
Does a perfect Nexus 4 even exist?
Thanks fellas
No bleeding here

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Minor light bleed at the top & bottom.. although it is very minor. I really have to try to see it. I would say for a normal person, they would think it has "no light bleed". But to us perfectionists yes it's there.
I know this is asking a lot, but would someone with a perfect device mind posting a pic with your brightness turned up with your notifications dropped down?
No bleeding here either and I'm on Rev 11
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Lots of light bleed here in the top right corner. Nov 2012 version, rev10
Don't really care though.
No bleed and I bought mine at an insanely bright tmobile at sunset.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Maybe for some of the people who say they have a perfect device, just dont notice it or their brightness is too low..
someone, please, put my OCD worries to rest and snap a shot of your phone with no lightbleed with the notification dropped down with at least 50% brightness.
I will be in your debt.
Is this what your looking for? Sorry I'm half ass sleeping right now.
