[Q] Screen image burning?? Help Please!

Hey everyone, first off I would like to introduce myself as I am new to this forum. I appreciate everyone's input and how helpful this forum really is. Now to the real issue, I have a kindle fire that is rooted and flashed over to cm9 reloaded at the moment. The rom runs absolutely great so far, very smooth etc. The issue I am having is that the images are being burned into the screen permanently and the only way to remove them is to flash over to a different rom. My question is what do you think could possibly be causing this? I may not be correct but do you think that it could be caused by the overclocked kernel? Thanks in advance and I look forward posting on this forum!

Burned in permanently until you re-flash?
Several people have reported some screen after-images even with the stock rom. It varies in intensity and it's not software related.
If you have a theory about it being due to overclocking, why not just try not overclocking?
Or go back to the stock rom for a while and see if it still occurs; if so, call Amazon up and get it exchanged.

The KF has an LCD screen, and from my knowledge LCD screens suffer from "image persistence".

Ive tried multiple different roms including the stock and none have caused this problem, so I guess I will take your advice and try to see if not overclocking will help. If it comes down to it I will have amazon exchange me for a new one.

Try flashing back one of those ROMs and see if they still work right. It may be just a problem with that specific ROM (or an application that you run on it) that's being caused by the lack of HWA.

Then my TV would have a persistent History HD logo on 1 side, and Disney HD on the other.
Or better yet, your computer monitor would have a persistent Start button.
LCDs have pixel decay times, it depends on ambient temperature but images should not "persist" longer than 1000ms with modern LCDs under normal operating conditions.

SUPER rom tweaks without a rom...

Here's some new code that will give you all of the tweaks and goodies found in the best roms but without having to flash a rom. These work on the SGN10.1. This is not my work, just passing it along. If you break your rig that's on you.

READ THIS! >> To use this you will need Busybox (just download and install from the Market) and INIT.D support (how to get that posted here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1883125). I'm not kidding. This WILL NOT WORK without these.
Faster internet browsing
Longer battery life
Improved multitasking
Better JPG image quality
Higher quality recording from the camera
Faster scrolling
More responsive touch controls
Extra themes
** I have noticed that trying to implement the AdBlocker Tweak causes the installation to hang for me. I would avoid that. YMMV.
** PLEASE DIRECT ALL INSTALLATION AND FUNCTIONALITY QUESTIONS TO THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR'S THREAD. I DID NOT WRITE THIS JUST PASSING ALONG THE WORD.
** I KNOW THE AUTHORS ARTICLE INSTRUCTS YOU TO EMBED THIS IN YOUR CUSTOM ROM BUT I FOUND THAT YOU CAN JUST FLASH IT IN RECOVERY AS LONG AS YOU HAVE INIT.D AND IT WORKS JUST FINE.

Has anyone tried these? They are actually quite awesome.

I want to try it but would it work for a stock rom?

Yes that's the point. It gives you all the features of a custom rom without flashing a rom.

Yeah I ended up trying it and it definitely makes the battery drain even slower and the wifi speed is faster!! Everyone should try this ASAP there's soooo many tweaks and it managed to make this tab faster....I honestly don't think jb will improve that much especially using these tweaks!

I just Flash it few minutes ago. Definitely tweaks the system. I can feel it. I just don't try all the tweaks. Hulu Is not working for me. Crash the launcher.

One thing I notice is that I can now play HD YouTube videos without buffering issues. Also web browsing seems very quick.
Anyway not sure how all the tweaks will work with our bit if kit here so I just went with the ones I recognized.

Dunno. Check the original thread I'm sure they address turning it on and off.

i think the way to disable it is run again in cwm, then disable all tweaks?

Guys I'm not an expert on this code. If you read the author's OP and followup you know as much about how this works as I do.

I must not have selected that option somehow. I have been getting a lot of buffering issues watching HD youtube videos since flashing this. I will try again to see if that will fix it.

Missing Camera Features

Hi,
Why I'm able to see the app for the features but not my features on the camera app. Any ideas?
Example the erase feature or this is not enable on stock.. Don't have other phone to compare

Are you on a custom rom, or have installed a camera mod? My camera app doesn't look like yours, that is why I ask. All of my modes are there.

TRIM on Nexus S, yay or nay?

I suppose everyone heard about fstrim utility from unix OS-es being incorporated in Android 4.3. Appearantly, it optimises how operating system is using flash memory and that reduces lagg that is being accumulated over time of usage.
My question is, has anyone tried LagFix app from Play Store? Does it help for our device?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk 2

/system and /data works, /cache doesn't.
I think it does help performance a bit.

Don't expect miracles from it, but it indeed helps a bit.

I'm running the same build of CM-10-20121220 for some time now, trying new ROM's but I always go back to this from recovery after few days. I don't know is it placebo or what but phone indeed seems little snappier than before.

best thing to do is clear all recent apps by pressing home key and clearing each one away to free ram.no apps needed as thay will use ram them selfs.I do this and i dont get lag.

[Q] Overheating and Launcher issues

Hi
I've noticed that my Nexus 4 has been overheating a lot ever since the 4.3 update. Additionally, whenever I try to rearrange apps on the home screen, I get and error that the Launcher has stopped working.
Has this happened to anybody else, and more importantly, is there a fix? Please help!
Oh and I should mention that my nexus 4 is stock and unrooted.
Thanks
PS: *Unrelated* The Facebook app has started misbehaving and restarts whenever I try to open a conversation. Reinstalling does not fix this problem. If you have a solution, please help.

overheating.. if its not shutting itself down at 100C, then its not overheating. and i highly doubt its reaching 100C. why do you say overheating? does it "feel" hot to you? you do realize that "feel" isnt a way to tell what temperature it is. what temperature does it reach for you to say overheating? cpu temp? battery temp?when most people say "overheating", what they really mean is that they feel the heat through the back glass, which is normal. the phone will get warm as you use it, thats how its supposed to work.
and what launcher are you using?
also, the facebook app has been misbehaving for years, its a known bad app. i uninstalled facebook more than a year and a half ago, and cant be happier. their site is just as good as their app, but their site doesnt misbehave constantly.
