Did it remove any of the pixelation from the status bar icons,etc?
you can't change a physical thing with software. I have noticed no difference with the screen. Status bar still looks the same, everything looks the same.
the only thing they could have changed is the utility to set backgrounds, but i haven't changed mine so i have no idea.
a question, when we update the atrix for this version, we will lose all installed app?
No, when it is pushed OTA to all Atrix 4G's it will keep all apps and probably most, if not all, of your settings.

its 8:43 CT here and still no update yet. Wonder what time they are pushing it out?
since the update, mine irons shirts now (although its still making a mess of the collar).
I noticed pictures on my phone look much nicer now. Before looking at pictures I had taken and transfered to the phone looked washed out like the white balance was really off. Looking at the same picture on my phone and an Iphone the Iphone displayed the picture way more clear and crisp. Since I did the update that has changed. The pictures look the way they are supposed to now. I'm sure what they did was change display settings to correct the problem.
I think motorola don't will put update to all users for now =/

Pretty sure my Hero did this crap too.. ANNOYING!
I've noticed this too. And any ideas on the flash issue? Renders night time pics useless
your best bet is to adjust the iso to around the 200 range. if anything is causing this its the auto iso
I turned my brightness down to anywhere between 2.6-4.0 and night time pics are beautiful, not that ultra bright ridiculousness and as far as the blur, I haven't had that issue

Def didnt help i took 5 pics just now and it didnt change its gotta be a software issue it works fine vertical but once you flip it landscape it gets blurry just dosent make any sence someone help please
It's just the software... My Hero did the same thing.
Usually a different image viewer fixes this, but we shouldn't have to install other software to fix these things...
Any dev think they can fix this?? This is insane seriously
i have the same issue.. have to zoom the pic in a tad to clear it up!
Did a quick search and didnt see it posted.
Changing it from 240 to 200 looks good on these like it did on the captivates. This is a sweet spot I feel for looks and without causing issues.

did you have any problems with the dialer? people reported it crashing when changing the density (but most were changing it to be HIGHER)
shiiiiit didnt try that...
ok yeah thats not cool.. damnit it looks soo good like this too.
looks like Ill be playing around and researching other moto phones to see if theres a sweet spot that works maybe something weird like a 203 or some crap
and yes everyone if you go back to stock all is well
dialer2 from market (free) works well when changing density
Thanks for the feedback. Im going to add it to the list of root apps found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1099846

Smaller number means higher resolution. Make sure to use small increment changes when testing. its mostly a personal preference type thing. I think the Atrix screen looks great, much better overall than the Cap. Hold any two screens next to eachother and look at different images and you will see how different screens look better or worse depending on what your viewing. Me and my buddy had fun pitting my Atrix against his G2x just surfing though google images. Warmness softness sharpness density Screen type, many thing influence the image quality. In the end its up to your eye to decide what looks best to you.

So, I restarted my tablet today. When it started back up, all of my widgets were gone. I started to pop them back in and the picture frame one is now 2x2. It was 3x3 before I restarted.
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!!

I've had exactly the same problem. Some times when I switch the machine on (not from a cold boot) the picture frame is 2x2 other times it is 3x3. Gets me to thinking that this info must be held in the coding somewhere and, if that is the case, how easy would it be to chage it.

It's such an odd error if you think about it. No rush though, as the 3.1 update will bring resizeability.
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
Hi,
I saw the same issue. Not only picture frame was affected, but also digital clock was 3x1 instead of 5x2. In my case it helped to rotate the A500 to portrait mode for moment. After that widgets had expected size again - also in landscape mode.
Can someone else verify...?
Regards

Thanks for your response.
My A500 was rooted and I had installed CWM recovery before I upgraded to the unofficial 3.1. I initially had problems with losing Gmail, etc. but after a wipe and re-install everything was fine.
I was only some time later that I noticed that the picture frame widget sometimes had a 2x2 resolution and other times had a 3x3 resolution. Not really a problem - I am only curious why it would do this and if it is possible to change this.
I have sized widgets such as e-mail and gmail widgets, so I know how that works. This resizing does not work on all widgets as far as I am aware.
It would be nice if some of the clever guys on this forum could shed some light on this.

Hi folks - My Dad - all 75 years of techno geek in him - just got a Xoom.
He loves Android (on his EVO & trying to learn the Xoom) but his eyes can't seem to see the status bar down @ the bottom clearly.
It looks dim. Is there way to adjust the brightness for the status bar (particularly the lower right one)?
Thanks.
I don't think there is. It just uses the standard screen brightness setting so its the full screen or nothing I think.

Thanks for the input.
From the lack of responses, I tend to think this isn't a huge issue for people. LOL!
We did adjust the brightness for the screen & it didn't seem to make much of an incremental difference.
Try one of the themes that brighten it up.
Touchwiz is brighter, I'm sure the red theme is brighter as well.

Hmmm...will look for it. Thanks for the idea.
If you're going to use a theme, you will have to convince him to let you root his XOOM.
If you want to go that route and don't feel like installing a completely new theme, I can make a brighter version of the stock control buttons for you. The clock font brightness is not editable at this time since hnytool hasn't been updated for 3.2, however.
As far as colors go, green is easiest and brightest seen by the human eye. Try the green theme.

I downloaded the jellybean update last night, super excited and eager. My phone powers up, and the blacks in my wallpaper no longer flow together. It looks like color banding on a bad TV. I'm not sure of a better way to explain this. If any off you have seen it, you'd know exactly what I mean.
I can try adding a screenshot, but I'm pretty sure it's bit the images fault, as it looked okay prior to the update, but I'll try anyway.
If anyone else is experiencing this, or knows off a fix let me know.

Yeah.. =/
Unfortunately, I knew a screenshot wouldn't really help since it's a rendering issue. I have two other friends with RAZRs. One has a RAZR HD, and the otheras a RAZR MAXX HD like myself. Ever since the Jellybean update, wallpapers that go from absolute black to some color, band and dont blend well. It looks awful..
Could you tell us if you had made any changes to your phone (root, TiBu frozen apps, etc.)? I'm on a MAXX HD also and not having any issues at all. Phone was stock before update (just the ICS OTA installed).

I've made zero changes to the phone. Phone was completely stock prior to update. My tethering isnt working either through the native Verizon app anymore either. I tried to download FoxFi, and that just crashes the phone when i enable it
Did you try to re-apply the wallpaper or try a different one? I'm wondering if the image itself is screwed up. Usually banding on AMOLED screens will show when you have gray/dark shading. I've applied several of the stock dark wallpapers and they all look great - no banding at all.

I've had no issues of banding on ICS. My friend who has a normal RAZR HD has zero banding on the jellybean update. My friend, who has a RAZR MAXX HD as well, also has the banding issue after updating to jellybean.
