'Recent apps' weird lines - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi everyone, I'm having an issue on my device that is pretty weird. Everytime I open the 'Recent apps' section when on a black background I see this horrible lines like a broke tv. Its only on the recent apps section. Im using AOKP M5 + Franco3. Has anyone else had this issue? Or its just me and a faulty screen.

Call me crazy but I see nothing. Problem's with your screen if it doesn't show up on a screenshot.

I don't see anything either. Can you specify more?

I have this issue too

If you have a problem with your screen, take a photo of it! All a screenshot will do is show us what it should look like.

Jeez, I didn't read properly. Sorry, ignore post!

Try a different from first. Or try viewing it in landscape also.

Heh, i have this issue too.
Let me try in landscape mode.
Landscape mode have this problem too.

Sounds like it could be the rom. Are you on the same one as the OP? Also I do not think the apps show in a screen shot for security reasons.

It appears that 4.0.3 has fixed the camera issues

You know how everyone is complaining about the camera, mainly because photos come out blurry/not sharp. The thing causing that was VERY slight movement when clicking the button to take the pic. It seemed to come out of focus very easily.
Now, with 4.0.3, I can get sharp pictures even with more movement. It's not so "touchy" anymore and stays in focus.
Anyone else notice?
What rom are u using?

If this is true, then it's awesome.

I hope it's true. There's more than one camera bug.
Im surprised how well it focuses in low light with out flash.

You know they could offer a shooting mode that used the phones sensors to detect camera (phone) movement and hold off the shutter until motion is minimized to improve sharpness. You might want a mode that does this but other modes, like sports, that don't delay the shutter.

Good to hear, what about the white haze when near a window. Now, can anyone recommend a 4.0.3 ROM without any visual mods?

You can change the boot animation yourself. Here's a link to a 720p version of the default ICS animation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380655&highlight=animation
EDIT: I've found the 720p version of the original Galaxy Nexus boot animation lags a bit, so if you're not happy with that one here's a link to a compilation of boot animations: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364044&highlight=nexus+s+boot+animation
My personal favourite so far is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764
wish google would add an option for the instant shutter or delayed snap after autofocus. 90% of the bad pictures are taken because the person did not either tap to focus or held down the camera button for it to focus
Same goes with panos, I wish they gave you an option for auto panning versus the snap then move, like sgs2 did
Switched to redemption a 4.0.3 ROM and now pics are a lot better. Very impressed.

Why has no one posted a photo yet? Show us some of that 4.0.3 camera goodness!

Lol. Yes that's a fairly well documented Easter egg
If you stretch the image (zoom in) it turns into an animated feature just in case u didn't know.

It does this on Gingerbread too.

You just BLEW MY F'N MIND!!!!! NO WAY!!!!!!
press and hold on the image that appears - ohh yeahhhh
All Android versions have Easter eggs like this (as far as I know). ICS is the best IMO, the rest were just still images. Although the Honeycomb one did make for a rather cool wallpaper.

Galaxy nexus keyboard

Hey guys, my galaxy nexus seems to have a small technical issue. Whenever I use the keyboard and press the home soft key, the keyboard remains on the screen for a couple of seconds.
I am running the AOKP Milestone 3 from with the apex kernel (happened with other kernels as well)
I have a screenshot but it refuses to let me upload, but if anyone wants to know what it looks like please let me know.

They all do this. Only thing to do is just deal with it unfortunately.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
well thats sucks. Thanks for replying, but if anybody else has any other information it is greatly appreciated
Its about 0.5 seconds before it retracts. Someone posted a video already. Didnt bother me at all though its so brief...
Unfortunately it's just how it is. I definitely share your frustration though, I usually lower the keyboard prior to closing whatever app is using it to avoid this. It's not just stock keyboard either, Swype does it as well.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Its really annoying. Although it is nothing that makes me angry, its just a bother...
It stays up just a touch longer than the closing of the app using it. I'd say < .5 seconds. If its up any longer then that's not normal.

Fix for washed out colors on Nexus 7-toggle for nvidia tegra 3 prism

Just came a crossed an app that disables the tegra 3 screen dimming function which causes the washed out colors. The app is nvidia tegra prism toggle...used it and noticed a big difference but MUST BE ROOTED TO USE THIS APP
MOD Edit: Links Removed.

App can't be opened?

It can and does open but ask for rooting rights as soon as it starts
Worked great here. Thanks for the find!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
it's been sad many times,i think there's also a 3ad somewhere of prism toggle by nvidia.Anyways,if you don't want to buy the app,you can use the tricksterMOD app and by disabling smart-dimmer in the proper tab,you do the same thing (echo "0" > /sys/devices/tegradc.0/smartdimmer/enable)
EDIT ehi,but it's warez!!!!!!!!!!!PULL IT OFF!
thanx guys, trying this out,,steve

I noticed that if I'm playing a youtube video, and I press the recents button, the icons look wash out/almost white. not anymore with this app.

there is no problem with the display. its a power-saving feature which doesnt save any power from what i was able to find out.
problem is that it washes out your colors. its extremly visible when you watch video for 10-20min and then press HOME. it stays like this for good 30+sec. after that it goes back to normal. watching a lot of movies, its visible whether I have this turned ON/OFF.

Top of screen.

Anyone notice the top of the screen above the notification bar, the light? Its a line above it. Drives me nuts. Its hard to explain.

I see nothing on mine GN, maybe you should post a picture of it

Could also be ROM related ... Don't remember on which ROM it was actually, but I had a bright line somewhere around the notification area ...
Mmm, if it's is a custom rom maybe it could be the battery bar (try to look if it decrease at battery decreasing). Then you've only to disable it in the settings (probably you've turned on without noticing if it's the case).

I also have a line at the top of the screen. It is there all the time, and on any ROM.
No line for me, AOKP MR1

This was what I was thinking as well...Its the only time I've ever seen a line on mine with any of the ROMs I've run
It is definitely not there on stock, so it is either your ROM or a hw failure.
It's not on stock. That's annoying.

Well, and on which rom happens? Does it happens on everyone you have tried?
