Hello,
I hope I've placed this in the right place - if not, please feel free to let me know and I'll post it/move it elsewhere
I've recently upgraded my Nexus S to 2.3.4 (manually, not OTA), and I've noticed a slight problem with the screen. I have a friend who also updated their Nexus S manually to 2.3.4, and appear to be exhibiting the same problems. I wonder if anyone else can confirm if their Nexus S is doing the same thing.
On the device unlock screen, the right-hand edge of the right-hand buttons (3, 6, 8, DEL) is cut off (rather than having a border)
On the left-hand side of the screen (when held in portrait mode) has a slightly green tint to it (not seen in 2.3.3)
When held in landscape mode, the green tint appears on the bottom of the screen
The onscreen keyboard seems less precise - the wrong letters are sometimes typed (despite the fact I'm sure I pressed the right key!)
Just an update - I've spoken to a friend of mine who upgraded his (brand new) Nexus S to 2.3.4 OTA, and he is seeing the same problems that I described.
(He's recently moved from iPhone to Android, and thought the keyboard issue was him just not being used to the Android keyboard)
Have any other people experienced these problems with their Nexus S on 2.3.4?
No prob over here. Could you please post some pics/screenshots? Which nexus s model do u have?

Hi deeren,
I have the Nexus S GT-i9020 (bought and used in the UK, if that helps).
I'll take some pictures tonight (can't screenshot as not rooted, and at work so don't have camera!)
I've attached two images to this post:
lockscreen.jpg - this shows the buttons 'falling' off the edge of the screen
greenbar.jpg - difficult really to demonstrate this, but there is a slight green bar at the top of the picture (it's far more noticeable when looking at the screen in person)
I'm not sure if I can upload video - if I can, I'll try and take a video demonstrating the inaccuracy of the keyboard if that's any help.
Has anyone else come across any of the problems I've mentioned? I haven't had chance yet to re-image my phone and see if the issue re-occurs.
The PIN entry keypad is off-center on my device as well. However, I think it's just that particular screen.
I don't have any color anomalies though.
I didn't notice the keypad being off-centre in 2.3.3, but it may well have been. My main bugbear is the fact that the keyboard accuracy is definitely off in 2.3.4.

Im using 2.3.4 Nexus S I9023 (NOT rooted. all stock)
its not off centered on mine. i have a few questions for you:
1) are you using a third party lockscreen or something? could be that program?
2) are you using a 3rd party browser too?
i tested all my apps and screens and observed the homescreen, theyre all equally aligned. you may want to try to check stock calculator, stock calendar, etc and see if its off centered

Did you set your lockscreen to require a PIN. Because it definitely is off center, and it is a UI design bug on that particular screen. I really think anyone will see this. Nothing on my phone is off center except that one screen.
Menu > Settings > Location and security > Set up lockscreen > PIN
Enter a PIN and confirm it
Turn screen off
Turn screen on
Numbers on right side (3, 6, and 9) will extend all the way to edge of the screen. Numbers on left side (1, 4, and 7) will have border visible between button and edge of the screen.

Hey Guys,
since i installed OB6, my Screen-on, Screen-off and Lift-up-Display Animations are gone. It just instantly pops up. Do you have any idea why?
Yeah I noticed this as well, I'm on 9.0.2 stable OOS, setting in display settings for screen animation doesn't seem to exist either.
Yeah I also have this issue, is it supposed to be like this? Does everyone have this? I'm on stable oos 9.0.2
Yup having the same issue too maybe this is a feature?

I think its getting fixed in the next releases, lets just wait. Seems like everyone has it so they should have noticed
Can you guys also notice this? Its very slight, but on the lockscreen, when you are on the screen to enter your pattern, when you successfully enter your pattern (or a successful fingerprint recognition), does the fingerprint icon float up properly? mine appears to disappear behind a invisible box after moving up a bit, it just seems to get cut off, rather than floating further up and fading away as it should

yeah here too, they probably messed something up while updating
It could possibly OnePlus purposely removed it for faster user experience, since Oxygen os is known for how fast their animations are.

I dont think so, it really doesnt look good, more like a glitchy incomplete mess. Also they didnt adress anything in the Changelog or something
My friend just got his OnePlus 6T, and that also has the screen turning off instantly, maybe its a glitch accross both? i agree that, if its a feature, it looks really awful, and hopefully it gets addressed
Hey guys something else I'm noticing, does closing the camera app by pressing the home button look a little more glitchy than closing any other app? (Eg whatsapp?) It doesn't seem to fade, it sorta moves down then dissapears, just looks wierd
Just downloaded the Beta 2 OTA from google's site: https://developer.android.com/preview/download-ota#
Go get it!! Already downloaded and installed on my P4XL. Checking it out now.
Yup just downloaded and flashed and have root still??
Currently on it! Improvement in animation in some places, better landscape to portrait transition.
Missing clock option from themes
Music player now looks better, I think no more an experimental feature.
Final api released good for developers.
Recently screen tweaked a bit no share option anymore.
Yet to find other changes

Restart button vanished from power menu! Great
Updating my Taimen now. About to be in a meeting so I need my Coral working, do will update later.

Problems I have noticed are
The screen flickers a lot especially when using dark theme and a dark themed app.
I'm also missing new media controls.
Anyone got these problems?
does the navigation bar still remain on the home screen even on beta 2?
Flickering here too

I have the flicker issue too, media controls are there though.
I've noticed there's no longer the option to force 90hz now either in developer settings which I presume would resolve the flicker issue.

Just done a quick test and turned brightness up above 70%ish the flickering stops or just isn't noticeable.
Flicking is so annoying.. is there any fix?
Maybe custom kernel? I can't watch on this stroboscope
Anyone got Magisk working on the new beta? The canary build that was reported working on beta 1 isn't booting for me. (I never tried beta 1 myself.)
Here is my experience...
1) The flickering screen is annoying
2) I had no problems rooting via Magisk
2a) After rooting my Messages app stopped receiving messages but I was able to send them without issue
2b) I could not update apps from the Google Play store. It would just say "Downloading" but nothing would happen
2c) The Google weather widget on the home screen would not show the weather nor would it take me to Google weather when I clicked it. It seemed disabled.
I have since re-flashed the latest Beta but didn't root. All of the above issues, aside from the screen flickering, have been resolved,
Lots of flickering
Terrible flickering...
The flickering exists also at Beta 1 but only at very low brightness (environment and system brightness). Now screen flickering regardless of environment and system brightness (except at extreme high system brightness...) as long as background is not totally black.
Flickering sucks! OMG! No media controls here but do have force 90hz option still
Hopefully the flickering issues can be fixed with a 2.5 patch or maybe play services/kernel update ??

I have tried a few ways no luck yet.
As for other people the flicking screen I have it in this beta . I had it before Beta too, It's the 60hz - 90hz refresh rate. Sucks to say but if you disable it fixes the problem.
I don't see the flickering on my device. Yes to using dark mode, force dark mode, enabling 90 Hzv display (no more force), and playing a couple games at well as watching videos, reading news...
It never shows. Or else I am not recognizing it - and I'm pretty sure I know what flickering means, so....
I do use figure mode to automatically pause most of my games and SoS I don't normally use at work during work hours, so maybe that is why?
Or else something else I might have done?

I thought mine wasn't doing it to until just now. In dark room and looking at chrome settings while using dark mode. The grey background flickers like crazy... On a positive note at least it's safe to to back to Android 10 July without face unlock breaking
Anyone who is missing the new media controls, found any way to get them to work yet?
Hi,
I just got my OPN and overall I'm very happy with it. One thing is bugging me: the grid size on the home screen limited to 5x6 with OxygenOS. I therefore installed Nova Launcher and configured the grid to my liking. But Nova introduces a not so smooth animation when going from an app to the home screen (swipe up gesture). With OxygenOS the animation is smooth and quick, with Nova some delay is added.
I have tried to override animations with Nova, but it doesn't seem to work, it's stuck on the system default animation.
Anyone else noticed that behavior in Nova?
Bonus question: Since that animation is really annoying me, is there a way to add grid sizes to OxygenOS?
I use Lawnchair, no issues...

I've just tried Lawnchair and the closing app animation is definitely not as smooth as with OnePlus launcher. It's way slower and there is a screen blink/refresh.
Hmm, what refresh rate do you use? Might it be because of it? I use 60Hz, and I have no issue...

Let me guess: you are using gesture navigation and the problem does not occur when you switch to the onscreen buttons?
It's a Android 10 thing, not OnPlus' fault.

That's correct Piotrekk! Switching to onscreen buttons and the problem disappears. I remember now that I had the same problem on my Mate 20 Pro and that I removed a package via ADB to solve the problem...

How exactly did you do that?
UI transitions, pulling down the notifications or pulling up the app drawer seems laggy/slow frame rate.
Battery drain: the battery used to last at the very least 48h. Now I'm recharging it every 24/28h
Factory reset didn't solve anything for me.
laggy here too. Good info, now I know Factory reset it's useless.
Other issue I have:
some app don't use anymore or not properly border / edge.
I think downgrade to Android 10.
Haven't got it yet, in the US.
Same lagging in Android 11 on Edge.
I also have Edge+, on Edge+ no change.
Went back to Android 10...

I found a solution, I'll post it later. Battery is ok for me.
This works for me:
Go to Developer options and disable "Enable blurs". That option provides a blur on the screen, for example, behind the notification panel when we slide it.
You need to perform a reboot. After rebooting, all animations and transitions work fine. Let me know if it is useful.
Related with this: When "Enable blur" is enabled and you are broadcasting screen, you will notice a problem in vertical mode. Try swiping the notification bar... can you see how the resolution expands on the TV? I'm sure that's related to the lag.

Yes, I noticed that. I don't think it's an issue... it's a motorola decision.

It can be a motorola decision have border screens and dont be used properly, some apps dont use the edges now and i see my backscreen wallpepare in the sides when im using spotify. Is horrible and it shouldnt be like that!
I have the same problems as you guys and also now i have to wait half of a second to start recording an audio on whatsapp or instagram, and before the update it was perfect.... Does someone know how to do a downgrade?
I updated my Moto Edge 5g 6days ago, and changed the Blur option as advised by Cruban and my phone is working fine.
The battery seems the same as it was before and i don't have any issues with the non edge apps and the wallpaper.
For me too at first!
After disable turn off "Enable blur" and restart the phone , everything's work fine
I have receive new update today
RPD31.Q4U-39-26-14
fixed
- Laggy performance on the home screen
- Edge Display (or lack thereof for most apps on Android 11).
