I haven't had an issue. I notice Motorola "Droid" users, especially Droid X, their uploads aren't flipped the proper way.

It looks like the camera only wants to take pictures in landscape mode
cuz like i said the menu always pops up like if the device was in landscape mode. but the buttons/icons on the camera app flip the proper orientation.
Anyone else care to chime in, it seems like its an issue with the galaxy S phones...well i dont want to say its an issue but you get what im saying
EDIT:Just had a friend send me a pic from his fascinate from the vertical position and when it showed up on my phone it was sideways
EDIT2:when picture is sent in landscape mode it displays correctly
Hey guys,
I am currently dual booting Linux and Android, was using Clean Rom, and I keep having a really weird problem. My screen keeps randomly clicking in the bottom corner (where the notification bar is in landscape), and sometimes the screen will shake if the page has a scroll option, like moves slightly down and up, and I cant really click on anything. Im trying to see if I can reinstall linux/cleanrom with a different kernel, but having some issues atm. Any suggestions? Note that this happenswithout my case on and without my keyboard too
My daughter dropped her Nexus 5, which had been upgraded to Lollipop. She had her protective cover on it, and from the outside, nothing seems broken. When we turn it on, we see the white Google letters appear, then the android animation with the flying colorful dots (flying agonizingly slow), and then the phone builds the colorful android letters - again very slowly. All of that takes about a full minute. Then the phone seems fully booted (we hear the notification sounds), but the screen just goes and stays black. I can also get in bootloader and the screen works perfectly there too.
Does anybody have any idea about what could be wrong with it?
Also - I never rooted the phone, nor activated the usb debugging. Does anybody have any idea about how I might still be able to do that? And also - is there any way to back up personal data (like pictures) first?
Thanks!
Well it can't be a hardware fault surely.
You could try and get an adaptor to see if it will display an output on the TV. If you can do that, you may be able to backup the data. Although then again it may just be a waste of money. Does it show up as a device in windows?
Hello,
my N915FY, me and my bicycle took a bath in the river. I disassembled it, cleaned it with isopropanol, etc. and it works again - so far. But i recognized an issue: the display wokes up from standby several seconds for a lot of time while the S Pen is attached. Sometimes when i include the S Pen the note asks me wich application i want to choose to finish search request. In this situation i cant set the note to standby mode by pressing the powerbutton. This also happens when i put a small magnet on the return button, so the note thinks the S Pen is attached.
I've done a hardwarereset, cleaned it again with no result. The problem still exists.
I am very thankfull for any suggestions. Maybe someone can show me where the magnetic sensor, that recognizes the S Pen, is built in the note edge so i can clean it again or change it.
Rom: original 5.0.1 Lollipop + Root
Regards Daniel
PS.: It doesnt happen, if i start the note without connected usb-port platine.
Woke up today to see that my screen display has somehow shrunk and now I have a black border and my display does not fill up the entire screen panel. All apps get cutoff by this new black border. Is this a setting or something? I looked through the whole phone setting and couldn't find anything that would make this change or reverse it. Please help. I guess another way of saying it is the screen doesnt stretch to fill up the entire panel like it normally should.

adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0
Or use terminal emulator type as below
su

Need root.
Post the picture so can see if it does not help
I dont have root. Can I do any of this without root?

I have attached the pictures. The 3 phone pics show the odd black border or the screen just shrinking in as the corner contours are still there from the edges. The Guardian Tales image is from taking a screen shot using the Power + Vloume Down key combo and takes a picture of the whole screen without the border issue. Its really odd.

I still don't understand your problem, I don't see anything wrong with the picture. And for the screenshot it will be always perfect as those are not related to the display.
If you look at picture 4, bottom right corner, the KONG logo is cutoff, it should look like picture 1. The black border in pictures 2 and 3 shouldnt be there, the homescreen should be fully covering the display and not have that thick of black broder cuase the display shrunk for some reason.
your display is not shrinking, the LCD is failing.

What do you mean failing? Its brand new and not even like 2 months old @[email protected]
Not sure if there is a setting or not, but my phone has been the same way since purchase. The screen does not go right to the end of the bezels. Some apps are cut off in each of the corners, because it seems it's scanning the image to a perfect 90 degree corner, meanwhile the screen itself not a 90 degree corner, but more of a concave corner. Because of this, the app is getting cut off in the corners, not much, but some.
I always assumed it was due to the way OnePlus has its screen and apps not properly scaling to the screen corners. Some apps have black bars on the side and it's not known or shown. Other apps that scale up to full screen in landscape mode, to the edges of the screen, those are the ones that get cut off at the corners.
In your picture, it's the same, that image is being scaled up to full screen in landscape, since the word Kong is in the far bottom right corner, it is cut off when scaled up.
