[Q] HELP screen started flickering! - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

about 2 week ago my beloved p4wifi screen started flickering. It went away for a couple days but now it's here to stay
Here is a video - htt p: //w w w.you tube.com/watch?v =6oJ 4Va tfHSo
sorry for having to break it up....XDA says I need more than 10 posts to link from the webs
I've updated the rom to CM 10.1 just to see if it was related to the old cm 9 it was running. no luck
So is this hardware? Am I SOL? Is it repairable for less than it's worth?

It happens on every AOSP ROM for us, be it cm9, cm10, cm10.1, cm10.2 or aokp and so on. However, on cm10.1 or newer ROMs, the flickering has been reduced.

The screen flicker for me stopped when I started running Carbon ROM 4.2.2. I have not experienced it since then, also not with any of the 4.3 or 10.2 ROMs I have used.

On 4.2.2 ROMs, I had some flickering when apps was loading. On infamous PAC, it flickered once per week I think.

In carbon it stopped completely. Even when I was running PAC Infamous, I never experienced it again. On AAcount 10.2 I experienced it just a little before he fixed it. On SGT7 4.3 which I am running at the moment, there is no flicker at all. As a matter of fact I had forgotten that the tab started flickering with the advent of Jelly Bean!

No luck
I flashed carbon and same results. It might be the end of the road for this tab. Anything else I can try?
I've also noticed that the touch screen is becoming less responsive and takes me multiple times tapping the screen.

This is out of left field...but if I was you I would switch recoveries..I know they are separate from the kernel on this device but I've read in other forums about this issue being tied to a recovery issue..
Also,have you tried to update you're boot loader to the ICS one pershoot put out..
Just a couple thoughts..

CM 10 Jelly Bean 0.01 chrwmhoffmann

Has anyone tried the new alpha Jelly Bean 0.01? From the beginning and after having trouble with inofficial cm9 nightlies I always used his cm9 alpha. How is the stability of his cm10 alpha compared to cm9 alpha? Or compared to CM9 inofficial nightlies?

You'd better wait a while. If you read the first post of the CM10 post, you'll see what works and what doesn't. CM9 is much more stable at the moment.
The nightly CM9 builds have had a lot of problems with moving to the new kernel and trying to support both NT SKUs. If you want something newer than CM7 but still pretty stable, CM9 0.05.1 by chrmhoffmann is pretty good. It's highly functional and I have never had a SOD or random reboot. From all the chatter, it looks like CM10 is making rapid progress, probably thanks to a lot of the hard work put into CM9 carrying forward. Right now, I'd just remind everyone that patience is a virtue and good things take time.
@solar plexus
Hi solar plexus
you are right, the first post sounds scary but so did the first post of cm9 alpha by chwrmhoffmann but it worked really well from the beginning as far as I remember But as stated in the next post it was not based on kernel 3.x. Has anyone really tried the cm10 0.01 out? I can't because I'm currently on hollyday.
Hi strouperman
you are right I'm as well using this 0.05 alpha version by Chris Hoffmann. It works great from the beginning even if the first post was as scary as the one for the cm10.
But has anyone tried the cm 10 alpha 0.01 out? at the moment I can't because I'm on hollyday.

I gladly would unfortunately I'm on an 8gb model, so kinda out of luck until the 3.0 kernel works with it . Have to applaud the devs though, quick work jumping right in and getting an early release out already!
Sent from my NookTablet cm9 using xda app-developers app
I briefly tried out the first posted build of JB (after backing up my system, of course). Despite the expected issues alpha, it seemed surprisingly functional. The issue I noticed off the bat was that it defaulted to phone UI (which I think is balls ugly on a tablet). I assume that this can be fixed by adjusting the DPI. The rotation issue was bad, but I hear that is already been fixed. The part that makes me want to wait until this is further along is mostly losing the awesome CM9 settings I've grown to love.
P.S. - For me this build operated longer without a random reboot than the last CM9 nightly I tried about 2 weeks ago. I messed around with it for about an hour and didn't have any reboots, which is about 58 minutes longer than the nightly. I have to wonder if some component to the 3.0 kernel that is deactivated for JB is the major culprit for the random reboots.
thanks for this overview I appreciate this very much. So I will trie it out after my hollyday. I hope it will soon be as stable as the cm9 0.05.

Well i had to go back to cm7 beta. The random reboots weren't bad for me just surfin the web. But when my kid started playing games i got tired of having to reboot it about every hour. Loved the JB though. Hope the devs work there magic and fix the random reboots. Keep up the good work devs.

Had one when I first loaded it. So I set the display time out to 30min and used wake lock. After that the only thing was I had to manually reboot it every time my kid was playing games on it for awhile. The screen would go blank and the backlight would stay on.
Had the same issue here. I'll patiently wait for the good work and switch when the time is right.

Version .02 works really well . It only reboots if you leave alone for awhile and unlock it now. And one while trying to make a tegra 3 app work. But Google now works like a charm, and most apps work, and less apps are restricted in the market now. Only the phone ui part sucks. Basically no landscape at home screen or searching through apps. Besides that annoyance I've been using it as my daily for 2 days now with few problems.

Hmm.. I've just left my WiFi on (set to never turn off during sleep) and the screen set to 30 minutes and haven't had the black screen in a a few days.. Granted not really any heavy use atm though, just xda, eBay, and some other stuff
Edit: I guess JB didn't like me saying that... was going to edit something and then black screen
I attempted to use the newboot.zip used previously for the CM9 versions that enabled the 8gb NT to use the ROM, and was met with the black screen with the two androids on it (to show that its the newboot)... but it would not proceed any further than that... i was hopeful, but i'm sure that someone eventually will come up with a solution to allow 8gb users to partake in the jellybean goodness as well
... EDIT!:
After wiping the data/cache and dalvik, reflashing JUST chrwmhoffmann's CM10 0.02 and Gapps, i thought it was giving me an error... after about 5 minutes at the boot logo, it rebooted... and then booted into the google account setup!... keep in mind, this is on an 8GB Nook Tablet. I will post screenshots when i get back home tonight
Here are the images for the boot and settings from my above post

[FIX] Lag fix for cm10 based roms (cm10, paranoid android, jellybro)

I originally posted this in the Galaxy nexus forums, but its not device specific as far as I know and works on both my nexus 7 and galaxy nexus so I'll post it here.
Original Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1875486
I have a fix for the lagginess in builds from the past week and a half or so. The culprit is the surface flinger library. It is the android compositing system and some changes recently made to it are responsible for the significant lag in recent builds. Most noticeable spot is if you hit the home button if you have the notification drawer down. It becomes extremely laggy without this patch. Scrolling is also less smooth whenever multiple things on the screen are being drawn. This fixes all those issues.
Just flash this in cwm or whatever recovery you choose. Should work on all cm10 builds and cm10 based roms like paranoid android.
http://www.mediafire.com/?dbi25egli253q1b
I'll give it a shot in the latest nightly of CM10 in a few minutes.
Cwm aborted the flash as it was a bad zip. Is there an md5 to check?

Can't say how it flashes from CWM (I put the lib in the CM10 zip and flashed it like that), but the fix does seem to work. I did:

[Q] S2 Freeze problem

Hi all, I'm not sure whether this is the right place to deliver my problem on my Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100.
My S2 is freezing frequently and I am having difficulty to trace down what is the actual cause.
My current running ROM is CM10 official nightlies.
I try to track down the obsessive running processes using WatchDog.
And, it turn out to be android.media.processing is running at high CPU (>50%) always.
So, I tried to disable the media scanner using Rescan Media. However, the freezing problem is still occured.
The freezing problem could be happened at any time(internet browse surfing, incoming call, sending a message, plugging charger into phone) and even during idling!
I am really out of idea, so I would like to seek any help from all of you. Thanks in advance.
Happened to me despite whatever kernel i tried on JB. Tried stock cm, stock aokp(the same aa stock cm), changmin's, dorimanx and siyah.
I didnt even undervolt plus i even tried to increase thw stock voltage values given in case JB requires more lower. But i cant get past 2days of usage without any freeze issues.
Im a heavy user of this phone and i charge more than 3x daily or just leave it charge or use while charge.
Will be testing leaked 4.1.2 today to see if it still persists. If it still does, im thinking of a worn out mobo or processor might be the case. If its fine, maybe those AOSP isnt much stable for some processors/mobos.
Was suprised btw seeing not many complaints over the issue across s2 section. Hardwarw issue or aosp stuffs?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Currently still trying to debug for the issue.
The phone works fine so far after I re-flash the CM10 without flashing the Gapps.
Now just trying to run the phone with some daily running apps like (Gmail, Facebook, Whatsapp, Line) to see if the freezing problem occured again.
I was worrying it could be due to faulty hardware since I accidentally drop it twice before.
I had lots of freezes, but on JellyBam it's working smooth...
My S2 freeze again while I am surfing the net. Anyone has any solution to this?

Im testing Leaked JB now. Survived yesterday without freezes. Imma report on today and tomorrow. If it continues to success full day withour freezes, im guess my phone cant handle aospJB stuffs

Well, I am now to change to AOKP, specifically RevoltJB.
However, I get stucked at the bootscreen.
I do exactly what had been told in the thread in order to flash the ROM, but still ended up in the boot loop.
I tried to flash with the recommended options but nothing change better.
Now I am trying to download another clean zip file to make sure the file is not void. :silly:

Try AoKP official or Rootbox Release /Nightlies. Plain good and reliable. Im avoiding those non-controlled environment, super experimental and not much tested commits done in those other ROMs. Not to say that they arent good, its just that the devs trackrecord and status is a bonus imho.

If you guys got stuck in either CM10 or AOKP (I'm also stuck), try another rom.
I'm currently using ParaniodAndroid 4.1.2 jelly bean, and flashed a Siyah v5.0.1 kernel, which are cool.
I never get freezing problems ever after.

Paranoid are based off CM10 while AOKP and RootBox aokpJB are using GalaxyS2 specific stuffs from CM10 too. Most of our AOSPJB stuffs are similar to one another since hacksung are the pioneer who ported and built the base and improved over time with devs submitting patches to em.
But an issue caused by specific apps or framework is a diff case since those arent drivers/modules related and those are rom specific. Its hard to determine the root of the cause anyway -_-

Major Lag

Hey xda!
I just got this tablet yesterday.
Ever since it first booted, there's been terrible lag. Im planning on rooting and slapping on CM, but I'm just wondering. Is this lag normal? I mean even as I'm typing this message, the keyboard is lagging terribly.
And on a side note, is the cm nighties available in the development thread stable? Including the kernel?

Maybe is the system problem, or some hack may cause the device to hang.

May i... You have to enable wallpaper quick render in your launcher settings to eleminate the lagg in cm
Settings > launcher > wallpaper quick render > enable.
Oc your tablet to 1400 Mhz in performance settings.
Performance settings are hidden, you can unhide them if you go to 'about tablet' settings and tap 7 times.. I think... On the build number,
But from my experience is that you don't need so much power so i stay on 1000-1200 Mhz unless i watch video's
The lagg should be pretty much over.

1. Yes, that's already been enabled by default.
2. I'm over clocked to 1.2. I guess I'll try OCing to 1.4.
The lag is not in the homscreen per se, it's more throughout the OS. Lockscreen, notifications, apps etc.

He said he's not running official cm but i do :d well... The galaxy tab is way older than the google nexus, remember that this was one of the first decent tablets on the market 2 and a half years back, comparing a nexus with a gtab is like comparing a mouse with an elephant i think the 'lagg' what you mean is the 'lagg' what everyone has, ofcourse the gtab is slower than a nexus, but the gtab is terrible on a stock ROM, since CM, the tab has never been so fast, it can't compete to a nexus, but it can with alot of new devices out there with cm or cm based ROMs out there. And it's not like the tab hangs every 5 seconds like in stock

The galaxy tab is way older than the google nexus, remember that this was one of the first decent tablets on the market 2 and a half years back, comparing a nexus with a gtab is like comparing a mouse with an elephant i think the 'lagg' what you mean is the 'lagg' what everyone has, ofcourse the gtab is slower than a nexus, but the gtab is terrible on a stock ROM, since CM, the tab has never been so fast, it can't compete to a nexus, but it can with alot of new devices out there with cm or cm based ROMs out there. And it's not like the tab hangs every 5 seconds like in stock

I've experienced the same thing. Mine is rooted on CM 10.1 nightly from a few weeks back. Even when I was religiously updating on the nightlies it is still very laggy. 2-3 seconds for the soft keyboard to come on or go away, 2-3 seconds for apps to even think about loading, choppy transitions. It is extremely noticeable and frustrating.

Quite frankly, I sometimes also have this lag issue, no matter what ROM I've tried, how many full wipes I make, still very lag. Weird thing is that for me it will go away after a few days.

I use system cleaner's widget, once i experience lagg, i click on the widgets and it,s over again, i know task killers are propaganda, but it helps for a short amount of time, anyway' it's not hard to click on a widget for a second

I use adrenaline boost when my tab gets laggy. It drops the caches so you can get more ram when needed(very useful for gamers like me ). But in these few days of weird lag, nothing helps, even installing tweaks and mods.

Non flickering ROM?

Does anyone recommend a ROM with 4.2.2 that does not flicker? Personally the ROMs rum great other than that but it becomes a problem when it is almost constantly flickering and I can only use the phone in portrait mode. People always ask what happened to my phone like its broken and just like oh no see I have this really good rom on it, its just a side effect haha

Disable the HW overlays in Developers Options....but if you want a rock solid ROM....

I had that problem bad..for awhile until I went to one of the newer Carbon nightly's then it just went away. Disabling hw overlays helps for awhile on other roms then you get a RR ....I don't know but carbon seems to be running the best (for me) the last month or so that I've had it on here and I've used 2 dif nightly's so far.
This problem has been my biggest issue on this phone. Its always on lock screen only right after waking the phone and then it stops after actually unlocking with the swipe. Nice to see that I'm not the only one.

Really? I thought reboots were a thing of the past. How long ago did you "did"it? I haven't had any since about the second build. And none are being reported in the thread.

Another vote for Blownfuze's AOKP, 4.2.2 ROM. The newest 7/22 version is rock solid, no flickers(since many versions ago), and does everything I need it to do.

CyanogenMod 10.1.2 and using SD-Booster, Autokiller, and Greenify have eliminated all screen flicker, random reboots, and other issues. My phone is now super smooth, super fast, and has eternal battery life.
