Hello,
Firstly i want to apologize you for mistakes in my English (the original post is correct in Polish – I created this topic on other polish forum and I did not get answers. I hope that someone will help me )
I have a problem with an inoperative back camera phone brand lg. Recently assumed the new digitizer (after replacement experiencing this problem). After work I noticed the camera does not work.
The following is a screenshot of how to behave camera system after it starts. At the beginning it is a black background, and the available options (possibility to change the image size etc.). After a while of inactivity (approx. 30 seconds), the screen changes color to green. I think the better of these situations presents screenshots.
Screenshots I can send to private message

This ROM is working very well on my UK Rhod 100. Very stable & fast and since the latest update I have the correct HW keyboard layout. Battery life is limited but carrying a second battery is an easy solution.
The previous problems where the screen would not turn on after several pushes of the power button almost never occurs. However when the battery runs down to about 30% the screen always changes such that a red overlay occurs visible mainly on screens with a white background (see pics). Also when the screen changes ghost images remain from previous screens. Also at this point sometimes the screen will not turn on despite repeated use of the power button. Strangley, even though there is nothing visible on the screen I can unlock the phone by swiping in the expected area (and get haptic feedback) and long press the power button and turn off the device by pressing in the expected areas. Upon a reboot the screen will initially be back to normal but then if the battery is below 30% the problem will return. These issues never occur if the battery is above 30%. If I take screenshots with shootme the pics captured look normal when viewed after a reboot before the problem recurs. Not sure what the system does when the battery falls to this level but the screen is definitely affected. This problem also occurs with a fresh install with no apps installed.
If anyone has any ideas as to what could be the cause (and even better a solution) it would be most welcome. Thanks to all those behind this project.
Sorry you are having troubles. Unfortunately as noted in the first post for that thread we only have RHOD400s to test with. No one else has reported any similar issues. The 100s are known to be the problem children of the RHOD family. If you come up with a fix let us know, and we will try to include it in any future releases.

Did you look at ACL's work on RE'ing that panel code...?
He said something about the panel power up/power down sequence on the 100's (the AUO panel specifically) to be quite a bit different.

arrrghhh, I noted your post in the ROM development thread regarding the start up sequence in the OMGB kernel for the AUO panel. Perhaps this would solve my issue as well. If this change could be added to the next edition of this ROM my device would be virtually bug free.
As noted in the thread, we do not have any RHOD100s to test with. It is very unlikely that this will happen. If you would like to make your own kernel with these changes I can post it.
issue or not?
hi,
thanks a lot, first of all.
I've been trying to figure out how to get an Italian keyboard layout.
any suggestion?

try using AItype Keyboard Plus which supports multiple languages and keyboard layouts
Sorry I didn't express myself properly. I meant the physical keyboard. In other thread I read something about a startup.txt file, I don't know if it applies to this ROM (and moreover I can't find it).

startup.txt files are only for the SD card versions of the android roms.
You would need to edit the keyboard map. Here is generic android keyboard map info.
There may be apps out there than can change your keyboard map, but I don't know any details about that.
Also in the future it would be best to start your own thread, rather than using an unrelated one. Better yet, post the questions about the rom you are working with in the thread for that rom.
i am having also a screen problem with that Rom and Kernel:
My screen is not calibrated. When i press it's being pressed on somewhere else on the screen.
P.S.
My RAM is not 100 +- this rom showing me 33 for usage on the device :S.
Can someone help me with those two ?

Did you read the link that covered screen calibration listed under related goodies, or did you search for the threads that cover screen calibration under android? Tell us what you have tried, but didn't work.
No idea what you mean by the ram is not 100.
What the heck is going on here? Is this just the thread to jack?
Let's focus on the display issues please folks, as in your response should be related to the original post.

In an attempt to bring this thread back on topic I thought I'd report back that the original problem has not happened for a few weeks. My setup is essentially unchanged, the only change is that I have been using One Power Guard to try and improve battery life, which by the way seems to be effective. Managed 13hours with light use (few calls/occassional data for email web browsing)
Anyway it could be coincidence but it is possible that one of the tweaks performed by the app has sorted this issue. Since nobody else has reported the same problem I'm not sure how useful this info is but hopefully it may be of use to someone.
I purchased my SGS3 about 4 months ago from the middle-east.
I have a series of problems (possibly problems cause I am new to Android phones). I am listing them down here in hope that someone will tell me how to solve them.
The flash of blue
This happened once or twice about a month ago. Whenever I pressed the power button to unlock the phone, the complete screen went solid blue for a flash of a second and then I saw the flower on the home screen.
Is this a hardware issue ? Signs of failing hardware ?
The home screen redraw / lag issue
When I press the home button to exit an app, say Chrome, the screen re-draws itself. The icons take some time to show up back on the screen.
Initially I thought it was related to cache being full. However, cleaning it using ES Task Manager was of no help. The re-drawing continues.
I also disabled the SVoice on double-click home button. No
I saw a YouTube video which says that there is a bug fix but it is available only for UK phones.
Here is the video: /watch?v=5uYw3mVhiuY
Again, is it a failing GPU ?
The grainy screen
Title says it all. The screen seems to be grainy. The grains seems to be more visible under low brightness and on grayish backgrounds. I tested the screen using the screen tester that comes with ES Task Manager. When the color goes to whitish-gray, I can see the grains. They are in bands - horizontal and vertical.
Low quality display
This is not related to grainy screen. This is related to the pulling down of notification menu.
I happened to pull it down slowly while goofing around.
I noticed that the quality of the display gradually reduces as I pull it down. When my finger is near the last one-third of the screen, I see that blue color gets split into bands. A little further down, it looks like the background is some very low quality image.
The bit depth seems to be reducing, if that is a proper term.
Low RAM even on idle
Even when I use ES Task Manager to kill the apps, all I usually have remaining is 323 MB of the 800 MB of RAM that is there in the phone.
Why ?
Lag when opening settings
There is also a lag when I open different settings from settings menu.
If I click on the battery settings, there is a visible lag before the actual battery information pop up.
I know that was a lot of rant but being a beginner, I have no clue how to go about solving any of these.
Thanks for reading.
I hope you can help me solve most of these. If not, please let me know if I should return the phone to Samsung.
As for usage, very light use for casual gaming, web browsing, YouTube videos, reading books.
I haven't dropped the phone at all nor have I modded it in any way.
I have tested it using AnTuTu and it gives my phone 16000+ points. Does that indicate phone is fine ?

So, sir, you are basically saying that I must root the phone ?

No i am saying read and understand the basics first .as you dont have a clue
Then search for your problems .
Or take the phone to s service centre and let them see multiple problems .
Though your warranty is initially with the seller Samsung warranty is an extra limited warranty .

this happens for everyone no matter what! this just appears randomly and this isn't any problem so far!

it depends mostly on the background processes! the less they are, the less the lag will be.
I saw a YouTube video which says that there is a bug fix but it is available only for UK phones.

this firmware is way too old buddy! it's 4.0.4! we are already nearer to 4.3! the XXEMG4 and the later firmwares are the latest and there is much less lag when you press the home button like redrawing of apps.
Again, is it a failing GPU ?

I tested the screen using the screen tester that comes with ES Task Manager. When the color goes to whitish-gray, I can see the grains. They are in bands - horizontal and vertical.
can't answer this! i have no such problems.

this never happened to me and never been reported so far.

Even when I use ES Task Manager to kill the apps, all I usually have remaining is 323 MB of the 800 MB of RAM that is there in the phone.
Why ?
more free ram? try rooting and use greenify
Lag when opening settings
There is also a lag when I open different settings from settings menu.
If I click on the battery settings, there is a visible lag before the actual battery information pop up.
never happened to me! can't answer this either!

Hey Guys, happy new Year to everyone !
Maybe i found a soulution for people like me, where facing Red/Pink Issues on there Note 8. Specially for people, that want to use Amoled-Kino Screen mode.
For me, the Issue looks like, when i activate Amoled Kino- My Screen Colors get low down, like when you put out 50 % saturation and contrast plus a Red Tint. Anyway, Samsung offers a Software Fix with Adaptive Mode for Display and you can regulate with 3 Sliders to correct your Color. But how ever i set the Values, the Colors in Adaptive Mode are very cold and its sad when i lay down my Note beside my old S7 Edge. Special with activated Kino Mode.
So i searched a few Days in the Web and found a App called : ''ColorModeChancer''. This simple App does nothing else, then to Set the Values for Red/Green/Blue and Contrast/Saturation manual. When i understand the Dev right, it talks to the Kernel and maybe the Screen Configuration for Colors/Saturation and Contrast is load from Kernel and not for Example from another File or Script from System itself. But im no Dev and maybe i talk Bull**** how it exactly works Ask the Dev by yourself or Read Playstore Description. Maybe you understand it better then me. I just wann guide you all to maybe solve the Red Tint Problem.
Steps to install:
You need to be Rooted.
''To avoid using one App for "setting last saved value without open any window" and another one for "open Settings window" I choosed this App behavior:
1) run the App
2) first run ONLY sets last saved value
3) next launches within 30 seconds will open the Settings
4) subsequent launches within 30 seconds will do #3
5) if 30 seconds are passed, the next launch will do #2'' > Description copied from Playstore
6) (From me): Set Cinema Mode in the App and everything is good, you have now a correct configuratet screen with Amoled Kino Mode how it should work
Bugs :
Maybe you get a little Bit of Lag when you scroll down in Apps like Facebook or Instagram. For me, i solved it with cache cleaning for these Apps. Anyway it works like Charm for me.
The App costs around 50 Cent, was orignal made for non Samsung Stock Roms like Linage, Cyanogen etc. where dont have the Option in Settings, to set the Samsung Screen Modes like Amoled Kino.
I dont Link the Playstore Link here, because the App costs Money and i dont want to make advertising for the Dev or anyone else. Just want to share this Guide/Workaround for interested people with the same issues as me. One more Time, the App calls ''ColorModeChanger'' and it is aviable on the Playstore.
Further i Emaild with Samsung and they swear that the Screen Problem is a Software issue and not a Hardware Problem from the Screen itself. After that, i found this App and now i believe that Samsung tlaks the tings right, before i dondt believe that it is only Software Problem. Anyway, it works for me and the result is AMAZING
Have Fun & Good Luck ! :fingers-crossed:
Hi folks,
Recently, I experienced an annoying bug which I wanted to ask you about:
When the keyboard case (original Folio Keyboard) ist attached to my M5 PRO, it happens from time to time that the brightness adjusts itself to 0.
Even with automatic brightness deactivated.
I am typing and then it goes down and I cannot continue writing, unless I hit the Back button(either software or hardware button).
For better understanding I have uploaded a short video to my Dropbox, where it will remain until I need the space:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bz3gpvfb4ie9cw0/20180430_172623.mp4?dl=0.
I am typing in German in the video, but the text really isn't that important, I ws just typing for showcasing purpose of the bug. Sorry about the music, I was sitting at a café, when recording this and unaware that the app recorded external sound and then too lazy to make a new one ...
--> When in desktop-Mode the bug appears, too - I can then see the "System"-Icon in the Task-Bar (which you will not find i the video, I found that out after recording the video and have not made another one, yet.)
What might be relevant:
1) Using Nova Launcher Pro
2)BuildVersion: CMR-AL19 8.0.0.122(C432); EMIU: 8.0; Android: 8.0
3)With Huawei Start (Huawei Launcher's name in German, don't know whether it is the same in English) it happens slighty differently: It adjusts too often, when surrounding light is not changing, but it does not go to =, in Desktop-Mode, however, it goes to 0.
On android-hilfe.de another German user has experienced this behavior - thinking about a correlation to the keys [P] and [Q], I doubt that!
Has anyone else experienced this bug?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hello. I received my Realme GT a couple of days ago. It Is running global 11_A.09 software version. I'm facing a bug with auto brightness off. If i open some system apps screen brightness dims. Do you also have this behaviour? I'm considering to return the phone. Thanks in advance
Luca
Hi, I am currently facing the same problems. I've noticed that the brightness tends to dim when I open apps that have a lot of white pixels. Unfortunately I have no fix yet. Have you contacted realme about this?
I haven't contacted realme because i'm considering to return the phone. I tested different display settings without luck. Checked also for system updates but it is last release. Surprisingly i haven't read about this bug in any review.
