Hands are faster than the eye but pictures are not - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I noticed that last night when I was installing ICSEuphoria on my Vibrant, I saw what looked like a picture of a face maybe a millisecond on the screen. I thought "wtf was that!".
Today I was doing a fresh install of the same ROM and this time I saw a flash of a picture of a woman perhaps. I saw red lips and some words but was unable to figure it.
Has anyone seen these before while installing ICS? Maybe it's a prank from the programmers, testing our visual skills?

Funniest Or Most Embarrassing thing to happen to you with your smartphone.

Well, saw a topic about someone's phone reading there text messages out loud, and it reminded me of something.
My buddy said he went to his girlfriend's parents for Thanksgiving and after dinner the girls were all in the kitchen (lol I can hear the jokes already), and the guys retired to the living room. I guess there were over 16 or so people there at least.
While in the kitchen, his girlfriend messaged the boyfriend in the living room, telling him how she couldn't wait to get him alone later (but in much more raunchy terms).
Well, whatever app he was using just read it out loud, for everyone, including her father, to hear freely.
By the time he got to the phone, the damage was done. She came out of the kitchen, and her dad asked her "Do you need to be going? I hear you just can't wait to get home" with a smirk on his face.
Well, she turned red according to him, and they left shortly after.
Anyone else have something funny happen with their smartphone in the last couple years? Inappropriate ringtones during an interview, texts being read out loud, sending texts to the wrong person, or even someone borrowing your phone and maybe seeing a website you have viewed that you would of rather kept hidden.
I'm all ears. I love hearing other people being embarrassed
Happy Holidays !

Ha your not the only one...well with the first one at least lol
sent from my sexy HTC Rezound. Bata bum ba bum, Im loving it.
Well I started using go locker shortly after release which has an option to adjust volume while the phone is locked which I use mainly to save me the hassle of unlocking to turn music up or down while driving or at work. Well currently my ringtone is cigaro by system of a down, edited to start right when the lyrics come in.
If you don't know the song you won't understand why this is so embarrassing, but we happened to be at church and something in my pocket turned the volume up full blast and right in the middle of prayer I get a call and by the time I got my captivate out and ignored the call it was to late. My wife and I left immediately and the jokes have ensued ever since then.
If you just listen to the beginning of the song you'll completely understand why after that I disabled the volume feature and haven't been back at that church since. If you are the kind of person who is easily offended by something I highly recommend not to listen to it.
And yes I know this is in the rezound section but I spotted it in the unread tab on the app and couldn't help but share.

Lol funny stuff. I love me some SOAD, and i'm familiar with the song. And right in the middle of prayer, wow that had to suck.
Thanks for sharing. Gotta find an app that changes your ringtone on Sunday to something by Three Days Grace
Yeah it was pretty horrible timing, everyone quiet except the preacher and then bam, and couldn't of been a worse ringtone to have play in the middle of church.
I actually have a few more embarrassing moments but nothing close to that one. SOAD for the win lol, btw I saw a thing online where they are talking about getting back together and doing a new album since the recent tour went so well.

Lmao
Swyped from my Rezound 4G
Girlfriend called me and pissed me off(not my current girlfriend), and I ASSUMED she had hung up the phone since that would have disconnected the call on my end too. Nope, so 15 minutes into me talking **** about her and what she had done with my friend I got a text saying we were through. It was actually a blessing(I use that term loosely because I am not religious) in disguise, but now I make sure I always hit the end call button, lol.

Yea, I cant do anything like that. Her dad is all about smartphones the last couple years. He has a droidx and everytime we go up north to see him, he likes to tinker with my phone.
I have to clean up the phone a bit before the trip. I'm sure there are certain things he just couldnt un-see.
Naughty Fast Food
I randomly happened to tell a friend via text about how I was going to McDonalds for the first time in over a year. I decided to prove it to her by taking a photo of something with a logo on it to text to her....I clicked my gallery app shortcut and a really raunchy porno resumed playing fro where I left off the night before.. The volume was maxed out and there was a little old Mexican woman behind me pretending she didn't see anything. Of course this being my new Rezound I panicked and it took me a good 30 seconds to make it stop.. The 720 screen is pretty nice though.
I LOL'D... Anyway, this should be in the offtopic, so everyone can share their embarrassing moments with their androids...

Not me but my daughter... My grand daughter picked up my daughters phone and followed her into the bathroom.... not realizing that a) she was taking pictures or b) they were auto posted to her Facebook page. When she logged into Facebook almost 3 hours later she found them. Luckily, nothing was really exposed but it could have been. Grand Daughter is 2-1/2 but she really likes the phone and has no problem finding wow wow wubbzy or something like that on YouTube.
lol...I really don't understand why anyone would ever autoupload pics to Facebook...maybe 1% off pics I took would ever get posted.

Iphone 3gs dunked in the toilet (clean). Take it out, still working. Open it up to dry it out. Put it back together and break the screen cable. Wet black unilluminated awesomeness.

[Q] Problem in i9300 screen?

Hello, i just bought my i9300 a few weeks ago. All seemed normal when i noticed that when i was viewing a gray screen ( e.g. a game loading ) or anything that wasnt completely black, there were some spots in my screen. I thought at first that it was some graphics or glitch from the game, but then tried loading another game with a similar gray screen and they were still there. They arent scratches or anything like that ,it seems that its from inside the digitalizer. I dont know if i can even put a photo of that, because its not easily visible. My phone obviously has its warrany voided due to some rooting. If i flash the stock firmware, unroot it and run triangleaway, do you think i would be able to swap it for a brand new?
Hey mate, I have the exact same problem I keep thinking it's my eyes or something but I guess if your seeing it as well maybe its a problem with the device?
Do you also see the screen sort of flickering at certain points?
Well documented problem with many handsets..

Sorry, parents don't give a refund on their children.
Swapping sometimes works but usually you're stuck with a worse model and can't go back due to technical issues with boyfriend 2.0

Huh? I hope you are talking about Samsung and her Baby i9300 ?

Yellow tint on the screen, not pure white.

I was using my galaxy tab 10.1 and my s3 was lying beside it. A message came. I was eager to know who was it. I opened it, the message said that my friend was ill, i was a little disappointed, during my sad time, my eyes turned to my tab, and what did i saw, i couldnt beleive my eyes. I had never seen such a thing, i felt dissy for a moment, i went and took some cold water, i relaxed for a moment, than decided to spend some time out, met my friends, but still during the night i had nigtmares of what i saw, it seems i was going to get swallowed in the white.....
Ok lets cut the story straight, no drama, the screen seems to have a yellowish tint,white doesnt seem to look so good... Plz help me out i cannot sleep....

More info please?
Thank you :fingers-crossed:
Anyone that uses Siyah kernel can tell something about screen enhancement? Is it the same thing you can do with Screen Adjuster or better?

screen not calibrated?

I've begin to notice my screen isn't quite calibrated properly, like when i use swype, the line trail is almost always wonky and it doesnt get the word I intended of course.
Also another clear indication for me was when i tried to draw, and it wouldnt draw a straight line lol.
I'm not to fussed if it doesnt get resolved as it's only a temp phone but would still love to get some insight into the problem.
That would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance
What ROM you're using, have you already searched at xda and google?

CM7 and yeah tried google but to no avail and i saw a post here but it was to do with a faulty replacement screen...
If you take at the screen shot each diagonal line was drawn straight (or as straight as possible) and each kink and line which is radiating away from a diagonal line came just by it self :S
and this was drawn with no special brush, just a pencil tool. Mid boggling

Is this happening on other ROMs too? Have you tried to reflash the ROM? It could be that there was a small flashing error because my screen is working good. If this isn't helping, I don't know...

[Q] Making stock Messaging less laggy?

Hey guys
I'm running CM10.1 and using Swype...if that changes anything.
I love the stock messaging app and have tried others...didn't like them...one thing I really would like to see is having sending messages instant, like iPhone's, and then you see them being sent.
If any of you have ever used What'sApp before, you'll know what I'm talking about...you hit send, and it instantly shows up in the conversation...whereas messaging has a delay for me (usually when texting multiple people at once, or sending one message after another quickly). There are other little laggy quirks that piss me off...but this is one of the biggest. It's something subtle but very annoying.
Anything?
Thanks,
Elliott
I think that's nerwork related....happens with me, no biggie.
