I have an inssue on my SGS (Froyo JPO/JP5 lagfixed).
Everytime I reboot, or I update something from the Market, some of the shortcuts on the "desktop" disappears: always the same icons !
Do you have any idea on how to solve this issue ? because it drives me crazy !
Just for your info: I had the same issue from the beginning, with Eclair not lagfixed (original).
Thanks for your feedback.
Noone have the same issue ?
I have issue with new Opera Mobile 10 beta shortcut on desktop....Strange, only with this.
Regards
About my problem I have the issue on Winamp,Firefox, Bump, Msn Talk, Foursquare, Bluetotth Gile, Waze, Google Earth, Dropbox...
It's a pity, also because every time I have to rebuild all the screens !
It can be related to the apps installed on the MicroSD ??????
So, it can be something related to the MicroSD chip ?
Hi All,
I am very new to galaxy tab.
I am running on official gingerbread, flashed following the guidelines on the site. Other than a checksum error it went smoothly and working just fine.
I have another problem though. When I hold it in portrait mode, trying to move up and down with my finger causes the screen to shake.
Somerimes more sonetines a little less but it is always there.
In landscaepe mode it almost does not exist, working smooth.
I tried doing a lot of search but could.not find anything on it.
unfortunately I did not pay attenrion if it was hapening on stock froyo, did not stay on that long enough.
Charging or not does not affect it.
Being suspicious about screen protector I rwmoved it but no change
Did anyone else experience anyrhing similar?
Thanks in advance for help.
Same problem here
Hi, I have the same problem here, I did woked on froyo for about a day or two, and the problem was not there, I upgraded to Overcome 2.0 and the problem is now there.
Similar to you, on landscape the problem is less evident, but still there.
In my case, on you-tube application, I don't have any shacking.
I hope someone finds a solution, problem seems to be software-based.
I just checked it, you are right, youtube does not present the same problem.
Lets hope for a solution from the experts.
Cheers
anyone?
this shaking is driving me nuts......the screen shakes so much when held down down that it pretty much renders google maps unuseable.
HELP PLEASE!!!
is it a screen sensitivity issue that we can tweak or something?
i've been googling for a month for answers now but no luck...
please please...
Similar topic in XDA
Hi guys, there is a similar topic here in XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14354988&posted=1#post14354988
I have the same problem in my Galaxy Tab, and I show in a page in fgfaria.com
I now suspect it may be a deffect in some specific feature in some library used by some apps and not used in other apps.
I installed Android SDK in my PC, and created an simple app following a tutorial, with a list of countries that can be scrolled up and down. In this very simple app, the problem doesn't happen, just like youtube.
I've found an app that could potentially solve the problem, but my GT is not rooted, and can't use it. It's called "ILITEK Touch Utility" and it's available for free in Android Market.
Let me know if it's useful for any of you.

Fabio
My tab does exactly the same thing as per your weblink.
The app i have download but once i hit the calibrate button, I somehow get denied access.
Any way around it? This shaking is getting old......sigh
Software, not hardware
Hi all,
In addition to touch test apps and youtube app, there are some other apps that don't present the problem. One specific interesting case is the one of the HelloListView tutorial presented in Android Developers website.
I've followed the tutorial, and created this illustrative app that just creates a list and allows you to scroll up and down. This specific app doesn't present the problem we've been discussing. I've made it available for download as apk file in the end of that same testing page (fgfaria.com)
That application being so simple and not presenting the problem, and the other apps that also don't present it, makes me think that the problem may appear when some specific library gets included in an app. Possibly something related to hardware acceleration, for example (just guessing, no specific reasons to believe that).
If only we could isolate the cause of the problem, we could notify Google and/or Samsung and influence a new patch release.
This is as far as I have gone so far. Ideas, reactions?
Regards,
Fabio

Hi Chris, I believe the denied access is because the GT is not rooted. The app must need access to pretty low level adjustments, and only rooting the device would make that possible.
I have the same messages in my GT, but rooting is kind of my last option to solve this.
My current options are:
1) Wait for an official Gingerbread update
2) If that doesn't solve, I'll contact my factory warranty
3) If they deny this is a problem, or if they can't fix it, I'll try rooting and using this app
While the first option is not available, I'll continue my search for another fix.
Cheers,
Fabio

Another possible explanation for the problem not happening in the app from the tutorial is that libraries being used include some kind of filter not used in problematic apps...
mine shakes but not noticable,.. i didn't notice this on froyo
Hi,
Thank you all for responses. I have been searching too but did not find anything.
However I have a theory.
The screen shaking phenomenon does not happen (or unnoticably little) when you are on a dark screen. Web browser included.
Is this your observation too?
Cheers
mine do shake even if its dark, originally i found this "bug" couple of days ago, when im in bed late at night, i initially thought that the shaking was via my finger, and was surprised to see this post a while ago
Note: My tab is rooted because I'm currently running the Overcome 2.0 RC1 rom.
*major headache *
Fully agree! Mine shakes only in light background! Same problem, but in this case, it looks more like a hardware issue than software (intuitively, at least, hardware is more likely to be affected by screen luminosity than software). The solution though, could be a software filter of fast screen movements...
Anyone? There is a solution for Galaxy S (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=844216&page=3#). There must be a solution for Galaxy Tab 7 too...
Hi everyone,
Is the same problem happening in the new 2.3.3 asia roms?
Do you have any experience?
Cheers.

Where can the new room be found? I'd like to give it a try, is the Overcome golden 2.3.3 Asia room?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
I was referring to official asia roms.
They are available in samfirmware.com but I have not tried myself.
Cheers
Anyone found a solution yet?
Hello guys,
Just a quick question from me today, I like to use specific Twitter clients nowadays, and I love using TweetDeck on my Mac - however, on my Android [Galaxy S] phone that's currently on Darky's ROM - TweetDeck just doesn't work.
Every single time I open the application it seems to want me to relog back in to my TweetDeck account. I'm getting REALLY annoyed and as such I've swapped over to Seesmic, however, I want to know how to fix it, or if it's unfixable or if anybody's known about this issue or has it, and knows what causes it.
So if anybody has any answers for me it would be MUCH appreciated, thanks in advance.
Can someone please help me? I have slowly lost all my notifications! The only way I get them is when I actually open the apps. It has been going on for a few months now. It started with my Yahoo Mail, then Word with Friends, also my local news station's weather alerts, now Facebook! Not sure if it has anything to do with it but I have been running AOSP's aospCMod Gingerbread ROM but I have recently switched to CyanogenMod 7 GingerBread. It happened on both. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me? Your help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Have you gone into Settings/Accounts and Sync and made sure that everything is turned on? I have gone back to roms sand found that Gmail (for instance) wasn't checked to be synced. How often do you have syncing set to in the app/s itself? i set a lot of mine to never, so you might want to look into that also if you haven't already.
Good luck!
losing notifications

OR, it may be that you're low on memory, and some things just aren't running happily.

Yep, just happened to a friend. Low on space. Deleted a few apps and they came back.
I have been getting low on memory. I will delete a few and see if that helps. Thanks!
Hi everybody,
Since I'm using ICS ROM 4.03 (now on CM9 Build 16), I get screen corruption when using market or surfing on internet with active wifi. Sometimes also when I use google music but only when wifi is active. You can see what happen on picture attached. Any idea to fix this issue?
Thanks.
Looks like language settings getting messed up. What language are you set to? Maybe try switching language to a different one and then back again. I hope that's what you're referring to.
Thanks,
I've just found the origin of the issue : it was the clock widget that I used everytime. I removed it and now no problem anymore.
