Screen problem

So I just got my Vibrant yesterday and today I notice something wrong with my screen. On a white background I see a dark Streak. I just wondering do you guys see what I am see?

I do see it, pretty weird... have you tried to play with the brightness to see if it gets worse?
If it was me, i would call to get a replacement... you got it yesterday so you're in the 14 days period to do return it, they will send you a new one.

Thanks for response. I have tried playing with the brightness but it is still there. Anyway looks like I have no choice but replace this device.

Yeah, even if you could "fix it" in some way, i think replacement/return it's your best choice. Good luck!

There is an free app called "xlight" (IIRC) in the market. It will fill the screen with white, red, blue, green, or yellow light. My phone display appears very uniform when using it, you might want to try it (or something like it), just to confirm the problem.

Looks like a defect to me. My vibrants never had anything like that. My first nexus s had a screen problem. It had a ring shaped watermark when viewed with any solid background. Yours is a streak but looks like a similar effect on the screen. You should get it replaced if reseting, etc doesn't fix it.

Make sure your replacement can get into download mode and recovery using the hardware buttons. Try it in the store. If not, keep asking for a new one. (Samsung has acknowledged this as a defect so tmo has to replace it)
If you don't know how:
For recover while the phone is off, press and hold volume up, volume down, and power at the same time.
Let go of power as soon as you see the first Samsung screen. You should be at the recovery screen.
For download mode pull the battery and plug in the usb cable. Hold volume up and down and put the battery in. You should see q little android digging.
If I screwed those up someone please correct me.

How to disable volume warning

I have poked around in system root attempting to find the file that triggers the volume warning without any success so I have come here to ask for help. If anyone knows how to disable this annoying warning please tell me. I cant express to you how much this warning bothers me! If you don't know what I'm talking about I have attached a couple of photos below.

This doesn't trigger with me. You on stock?

I used to get that when using Pandora, but it seems to have gone away (don't know when). Never even thought about it until I saw this thread.
I'm stock/rooted/Shabby kernel. I remove lots of apks before flashing, there must be one that handles those messages.
Does it only happen with headphones plugged in? Maybe that's why I don't see the message, been listening through the speaker recently.

Headphone Jack Plugged-In
I can confirm that this only happens when something is connected to the headphone jack. In my case I am playing through my vehicles audio system. I would most definitely like a mod to disable it.

Bump...I'm trying to find a solution for this too.

It is a mod, have you tried custom roms rather than stock? Most of the custom roms have that mod.

Nottach xposed has the option to disable this. Just a simple apk file that has all sorts of cool things.

This is the link for the Mod. I installed v12 (the latest and last version) and it works perfectly on the Sprint phones. The Mod is made for AT&T phones but works fine on Sprint. It's easy to install...just two apk's (one for the Framework and one for the Mod). Plus there are a ton of other customizable options in the Mod which are very useful.
I installed the Mod mainly for the galactically-stupid volume warning but am using many of its other features now. It sure has made the stock ROM a lot more user friendly.
BTW, I haven't installed the MF9 update and am still on MDL.

You can also use this Mod. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44390237#post44390237

LG G2 Bricked After Screen Change

Hi there,
My phones touch screen broken last month, I ordered a new digitizer with frame from China, I replaced broken screen carefully, then I turned on my phone, but I saw white lines on the screen.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I saw this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52414185&postcount=122 I thought it may be a kernel- digitizer incompatiblity.. I rooted my phone first time in my life, then flashed that kernel in the post, then phone is completely bricked.. now I see a black empty screen, it says "fast_boot started" etc. I googled and I saw some posts however nothing solved my problem.
I believe my phone is not bricked since it gives a response of black fastboot screen.. Can you please help me? I am a total Android noob, please don't just say "go to the download mode" tell me how to go to the download mode as well you can share links as long as they works..
I hope I can make my phone work again.
Finally, if I managed turn on my phone, can I really make the white lines disappear with software tweaks or my new touchscreen hardware is broken?
Thanks in advanced,
Eray

anyone?

I don't personally flash non stock roms, but if you read on the post with those type of roms a lot of them talk about a "JDI kernel" for the white line issue... Once again I have not personally seen it so I am not sure if that is what you have pictured, but it is worth a shot... Go to the forum where you got the rom you are on and look for a JDI kernel..

Reading your post it sounds like you had never installed a ROM until the screen issue arose with your new screen, if that's the case then redoing a ROM won't work for you as far as fixing the lines. Most people have found that issue to be permanent anyway and there is some debate on whether or not it is a flaw with the screen itself. Check my profile, I have a thread I did when I replaced my screen. It covered where I got it from and had a link for a great how two on youtube. If you get the date one it'll be a lot and not job. Your phone isn't bricked BTW. This forum has a wealth of knowledge on how to go about anyhing you wish to do. Whether it is to fix an issue or tweak to your hearts content. The search tool is your friend. Feel free to scroll my posts via my profile too. A while back I helped someone and covered a lot of different steps. If that doesn't get you any where let me know and I will see what I can dig up

I had the same problem last night. The solution is:
do you see that little tongue at the bottom of the screen full with resistant?
That little thing is sort cutted by the white antenna connetor when you put it together.

[Q] leaf microsd for rooted nexus 4

hi guys sorry if this has been answered i yet to find this particular answer so im hoping i can be guided in the right direction, i have read a few things but all they talk about is the actual otg cable and not the otg device i use which i think draws less power
heres what im trying to use:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and this is what i keep reading about:
i know this may be a dumb question but i am kind of slow and it's been awhile since i done all this so im rusty, with that said is there any possible way of using the leaf with a rooted nexus 4 beside using the y otg? once again i apologize if this has been answered just looking for quick guidance, thank you for your time and hope you have a good day.

I believe you would need a custom kernel that has OTG enabled for anything like that to work. Unfortunately I can't speak to the concern of power draw, but I believe that it would also need power that the Nexus 4 can't supply.

so the leaf and the otg are pretty much the same in which i would still need to supply power? by the way thank you for replying

Yes, I think for both of them power would need to be supplied externally. I have no experience with this leaf device and so I can't be of much more help on how to go about doing that. Sorry.

You need to use Y cable. Something like this Amazon link

Not exactly, because the leaf device OP is talking about is not a USB device, rather a microSD device.

I have a Dash micro laying around. If it works on my Nexus then that Leaf should as well.

s7 Edge Bootloader Exception - Any key combination not working / cannot go to DL mode

Hi,
does anyone encounter this bootloader exception that has pure red letters (no greens like others) and any combination like Vol - plus home plus power ain't working and other key combination?
I also drained the battery and after plugging in, the bootloader exception just appears with other text but still pure red letters, still no response.
I cannot flash anything because I cannot enter download mode. Is there any way which I can do? Please see below for the reference picture.
(I have posted a new thread since the other thread has access on download mode and everything)

None. I went to service center and they said Main board has to be changed But I'm going to try some luck tomorrow to fix with the cheaper guys who will try to reprogram and will open the back to do some stuff. wish me luck

Any NEWS??

I have the same problem, but with i little different error error codes. Phone not responding whatever i press.

Damm, mine did this last night, i guess all contacts and everything is lost now

So, i just got the phone from warranty service and they replaced motherboard, so it means that this was hardware problem.
