[Q] Lines on bottom of screen when rotating screen - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else get random line flicker on the bottom of screen when rotating screen sometimes?
Only happens in the stock Honeycomb launcher and with the animations turned on, of course. Happens to me on the original firmware and on the touchwiz updated firmware.
It's just like one or two lines. Usually they popup when I rotate sometimes they dont but rotating a few times will trigger them.

It happened once with Transformer's water live wallpaper.

Happens to me, too. I get a couple of green lines when I rotate the homescreen.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

[Q] Banding on black background in stock lockscreen

The title says it. I made a completely black picture on my PC, and use it as the background for the stock lockscreen. Despite this, there's a brownish horzontal banding across the bottom of the screen that fades upwards across a third of the screen, when it should be black! I thought this was a screen deficiency at first, but then i saw that this banding isn't there when i display black images in the gallery or anywhere else except for the lock screen.
Build GINGERBREAD.XWKE1 stock ROM, rooted, Kernel XWKE2.
1. Does everyone else have this?
2. Does it go away with an alternative lockscreen?
3. Are there usually this many bugs on new Android-devices, as there evidently are on the SGS2?

I changed to a black blackground too a while ago.
As I found out it is actually better for your battary to have a black background.

[Q]Problem With Lock Screen Not Unlocking (video included)

Hey all,
I posted a video below of the problem I'm having with the CM7 lock screen not unlocking. This is the Lens lock screen that's integrated in CM7 and it will not let me get past it. I've tried rebooting, battery pull, wipe cache/davlik/format system and reapplied the ROM in CWM and still, nothing happens. I even tried a flashable zip of an ICS lock screen for CM7 from the Themes section here and this is still happening. The phone is a Motorola Triumph running CM7-TG-Reloaded ROM with a build date of 12-30-11.
Any ideas other than wiping it out completely and starting from scratch?
Thanks!
Have you tryed to grab the lense square higher then the square really is? I get the same bouncing effect when I put my finger in the middle of the square and then try to unlock it: I can't go down anough so the square bounces back up. So perhaps there is some kind of miscalibration which make your lockscreen think that your finger is lower on the screen then it is.
Also, try if you can get past it when you have to answer a phonecall. During that phonecall you can navigate into your phone and chance the lockscreen settings.

[Q] Lock screen wallpaper borders?

I have just changed my lock screen wallpaper and now there are to think black lines running vertically down each side of the screen these are not present on the ripple screen only after i have swiped ready to put my pattern in they appear it is like the wallpaper moves position slightly i have tried to change back to the default screen but it is still happing where they like this to start off with or am i going nuts???
postimage.org/image/6cm1iujxz this is the ripple screen
postimage.org/image/p3nyt0eif this is the lock screen with the lines down the side?
You're not going nuts. The same thing started happening to me all of a sudden. I changed the wallpaper and everything was fine (for sure!). At some point that border appeared, I don't really remember when it was or what caused it but I can't get it to go away.
I know it's a little OCD crazy, but these little things drive me nuts.

[Q] Very odd screen tearing/flickering

I've begun to have very odd screen tearing, I'll try to describe it the best I can, as I haven't been able to get a proper screenshot of it happening, and I hope someone can help me out
Almost all the time the bottom bar, where the nav buttons and notifications are, will "jump" up and down about 1-2 pixels. It didn't notice it much at first, but it's really starting to annoy me.
When I play music, play any kind of game, open the gallery, the left side of my screen (about 1-2 cm) will start flickering and tear the picture.
When in gallery and swiping from picture to picture, the flickering/tear will start, but when just looking at a picture (aka nothing moving on the screen), it will stop completely.
The left side flicker/tear covers all the way from the top to the bottom, including the nav "back" button. The home and recent apps aren't affected.
Most of the screen flicker/tear stops when I'm just on my homescreens, the only part still affected by it is the "back" nav button.
It never happens when i'm in the browser (i use ICS Browser+).
I've tried restarting the device many times, I've tried turning it off and letting it rest for 24 hours, turned it on and within 5min it started again.
I haven't tried factory reset yet, since I wanted to check if it was fixable without doing so.
I'm currently running "almost" stock .28 update, rooted (not unlocked), I edited the SystemUI.apk, the keyboard layout for the dock and the bootanimation.
I hope someone can help me out
- Moon
PS: It isn't the old "recent apps" screen tear, it never affects recent apps.
You're experience what nearly everyone hear has experienced. Sometimes it'll fix itself, sometimes I have to reboot. So far, there's nothing you can do about it.

[Q] Lock Screen not taking advantage of super amoled

Hey guys, I got my phone last Saturday and have been playing around with it ever since.
I noticed that I had the night clock bug (whole screen is lit up) and as far as I know it's already a confirmed software bug. What I also noticed though was that my lock screen is also lit up. I'm using a pure black wallpaper which works well when the phone is unlocked (appears pure black) but the black is lit up when the lock screen is shown. It's almost like there's backlight bleeding. In the home screen and lock screen preview though it shows that it should be pure black
Here are screenshots of the "bug". I'm actually thinking it's a software bug since it was captured by the screenshot. http://imgur.com/a/p5maP (Take note the the blacks on the first image is different from the other 3)
Was wondering if this bug is related to the night clock bug or a defect with my unit.
If anyone is willing to help, kindly try changing your wallpaper to a solid black color and check if the blacks on the home screen and lock screen is different.
Thanks! (I have 4 days left until I won't be abe to replace my unit so I'm trying to make sure everything's good)

They're referring to the Night Clock alone. I have that problem as well as a lockscreen problem. Haven't seen anyone reporting if they have the lock screen problem so I'm trying to figure out if it's a software glitch or a bug with my unit.
Basically the lock screen preview when applying a new wallpaper shows that the lock screen should have super amoled blacks but when I lock the phone the black is lit up.

If there's any consolation I experienced this very problem. Were you using fingerprint to unlock? I hadn't seen it because I had swipe to unlock.
I still haven't figured out how to fix it.

That's normal. This happens because the lock screen puts a slight filter on your wallpaper. It de-saturates the image. You can try with a solid red color, it might be easier to see.

Not, really. This only happens when you have Fingerprints/Pattern set up as your Screen lock type.
If you set it to Swipe, with the water droplet effect, there's no "filter."
Someone found kind of a solution to this, but it didn't work for me: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...t-rid-dark-filter-lock-screen-wallpapers.html

Yeah it's clearly a bug, but OP thought it might be a defect of his phone. I was just reassuring OP that the problem exists in my phone as well. Thanks for that link. I did try the solution they proposed but it didn't work for me either...
Solution not working...plz another fix?
I have the same bug on my Galaxy J5 (super amoled), I use pin to unlock it. It is pretty annoying. I use the same black picture for both lock screen and background pic, and after unlocking the phone, black backlight turns off. Swipe to unlock solves the problem, but I have to take one of the disadvantages : either backlight or not locked phone.
Download "klwp live wallpaper maker" from playstore and make a all black wallpaper . Save it go to settings ---> background/wallpaper, set KLWP as lockscreen and wallpaper/background.
Not solved? are u using xposed? if so, download Bright Lockscreen and see if this helps.
