I just bought a Triumph and today I noticed two green lines running horizontally through the screen of the camera. The lines do not appear anywhere else (such as the home screen) and when the picture is taken it does not show up in the final photo. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I return it? Ill try and upload a picture later on...
I've seen this before, but only on a modified phone running an incomplete port of CyanogenMod. In other words, those lines shouldn't be there, whether they mess up your pictures or not. Return.

Ok thanks... I never modified it so it is still the stock rom. I think that I'll email the guy and see if he'll exchange it.

Hope I’m posting this in the right place. Ok here we go:
Bought a Nexus S (i9020T) a couple of weeks ago. It was shipped with 2.3.2. I got the 2.3.4 upgrade OTA and installed it. After the installation the screen has a red tint. And I’m not talking about the color variations between different Android versions, this is really bad! I can’t look at pictures and some text is unreadable. The screen is not broken since the bootloader looks normal, so my guess is that it is software related.
I have downgraded the phone back to 2.3.2 and everything is normal. I have tried to reinstall 2.3.4 as well as going from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 and then 2.3.4, both by downloading the files from Google and manually install and by doing it OTA. I have unlocked the bootloader and tried to load a whole bunch of different ROMs and Kernels. Nothing works. The Voodoo Color Control is not even close to fixing it. The only version that works is stock 2.3.2. I have googled it and it doesn’t seem to be a common problem.
So I’m reaching out to you guys to see if anyone has heard about this behavior and know what to do?? I can live with 2.3.2 but the reason I bought the phone was to get instant updates. I’ll attach a picture of the home screen which should be black. I don’t have international warranty so turning it in to Samsung is not an option.
Any ideas??
wow. that mr is a defective unit imho. i think that you should try to get a replacement. i do not think that you need international warranty or something. just a receipt might do it. (it worked with htc for many nexus one's purchased on ebay for ex) . just give it a try.
sorry for the news. i hope u get it solved or i hope i am wrong.
keep us updated.
Hmm, yeah I was afraid of that.
Just thinking though, what could be defective? It works just fine on 2.3.2. If i run 2.3.4 (or 2.3.3) and start the phone, the Google-logo shows up in white for about 5 seconds, then it turns red and everything is red after that.

That's really strange. It seems that the update only is screwing things for you. Try sending supercurio a PM. He knows these stuff. He is the dev of the voodoo tweaks and application. He'll surely be able to answer you and give you an advise.

Eldrin, Have you finally found a way to fix it ?
Or are you stick in 2.3.2 ?
Red complexion on ICS
Did you find a solution to this problem?
When I turned on my Nexus S i9020 this morning all greyish colors where red. Directly after turning it on, the lock and the google writing where white as usual, but after about 2 second it got a red complexion. I tried to make a screenshot of my homescreen, but in the jpg the red complexion has vanished and it looks as usual.
I'm running ICS 4.0.3 stock and did the update back in december. Removing the battery for a minute didn't help.
Has anyone an idea?
EDIT: After about 5 restarts it was back to normal! Anyhow, I made a short clip of the startup sequence before www . youtube . com/watch?v=vy5NkFrQDuA
I wanted to say this Rom is just about perfect, the battery life is extremely efficient, a good 30% to 40% better than stock. And the modifications performed are exactly what I was looking for, not to crazy and not stock!
I have one problem and I dont know if this is Rom specific or Tmobile specific. I recently switched from ATT to Tmobile and rooted my Sensation within a week of owning it. When someone sends me a picture mail it gets reduced by almost 90%. a 180 KB pic sent from another phone gets reduced to 16.8 KB.
Just to test this theory I also sent myself a pic and produced similar results
Does this happen to all users with sensations on tmobile or is there something I am missing?
Thanks
Dan
Devs are working on this issue I do believe their is a MMS patch floating around here
MMS Sizing Problem
Does everyone with a Sensation onnTmobile have MMS sizing problems? The pics come through as a thumbnail. Its actually the size of a quarter on the screen and you cant blow the pic up to full screen thats the irritating part?
Anyone else have this problem? Rooted or not?

Hi I recently started to notice that there was black blobs on my screen when I turn on the camera. This only happens on the when I flip and turn on the 8mb back camera. When I take pictures it also there. Once I exit the camera app the blob is gone. Did anyone ever encounter this problem? I called in Samsung and they wanted me to send in my phone for a repair. So I'll keep updating the issue. Thank you for your time.
Hey,
Have a look at this thread, might explain some things...

Is your finger covering the camera lens!?!? LOL j/k
Had to say it. The SGH-i727 has been know to have screen issues with lines and blobs but they are usually pretty small. If you are not seeing the "black blobs" any other time on screen, then there must be an issue with the camera. Your best bet is to either send it in to Samsung for a repair, or try and take it back to the store where you got it from.
Best of luck.
By the way, are you running a stock or custom ROM?
Thanks

Hey Thank you. Yeah I sent it in today for repair. I should be getting back in 6 or more days. I was running on a stock rom 2.3.5 at first but I noticed the blobs when I was using the leaked ICS. So I went back to 2.3.5 and they were still there. It was probably the camera. I noticed the vertical lines a long time ago but they didn't bother me at all. Not all phones are perfect. haha Thank you very much though!
to start I have a crespo4g
not sure what happened.
installed latest euroskank nightly this morning. everything was running perfect.
my battery life got down to about 25% and a white line down the middle of the screen appeared
its only there when theres color other then black it seems? like the app drawer when its open, no white line, but if i go into recovery, anything highlighted in blue, (NOT BLUE TEXT) but the actually highlighted tab has the line
it almost looks like a screen crack but im not sure how that could be possible. my phones been on my desk all day. ive been watching season 4 of breaking bad lol
anyone?
Hurry up, they just started season 5! ahem. Anyway, have you checked the thread for the rom yet to see if its not an isolated issue? To me, at least, that would be the best place to start. Or roll back to a previous version and see if the problem persists, but since you said you can see it in recovery, sounds like it could possibly be hardware related

this had happened on my Epic 4G a long time ago it passed over i thought it was probably the kernel/rom
i hope mine does the same.... it happened randomly today.... i just got this thing back new abt a month ago lol. went from AOKP to Skankwich and abt an hour or so later the line appeared smh
So I just came from stock (rooted with faux), and flashed Cataclysm properly and everything is working fine except for some of my pictures! I went to the camera and took a new one, and when swiping right, I didn't see it. I then went to gallery to sort by dates, and a bunch of random pictures (about 50) always come up first because they are dated for the year 2023. When I go to they're properties, however, they have the right date. Does anyone know how to fix this? Its rather annoying to have to see those pictures come up first in my gallery for the next 10 years!
