It's because of the amoled screen, even the S4 has these dark spots.

I noticed it too, but it wasn't there after closing Dolphin, so I got rid of chrome, thinking it was the program itself. Reported it to google through playstore.

Ahaa... so it might be related with Chrome (maybe)... Most probably I didn't notice because I never used Chrome!
Dolphin Browser is a Better Alternative; according to me

hi everyone
I can confirm to you this is not a issue with chrome
you just need a light black wallpaper to notice it
I suggested chrome because I noticed it first in it
you need to in dark room for better visibilty
I have researched about this issue. its normal and nothing to worry about

Maybe if you install the APK it works
About the slowy thing... Instagram was always a bit slow when loading profiles and stuff... I think that all I can say is deal with it....

I don't think so. The app does not work in CM9 AFAIK.

clear cache or reinstall the app.
Its a know issue for Instagram to load slowly. According to what I've heard, they are working on making the app better and developing it according to the Android Design Guidelines. All we can do is wait.
Clear instagram cache and data.. works fine for me..

Black border on the screen

Hi,
Today when i check my phone the display was not filling the entire screen. there seems to be a black border.. .i.e the display is 1 mm shorter than the actual screen size.... i dont think it was there before today... but may be i dint notice...
can u guys confirm if u too have the same kinda display ?
erhm,yes,same here.
So, we cause a triple murder before breakfast, start a race war before dinner - that's uh, that's a pretty good day.
Are you getting this in all the apps and even on the homescreen as well? If your not getting it.. then I would suffice that it is just that app that your running now that might not be optimized completely on the screen grids/borders of your Note.
Now if your getting this as well in all of your apps including the homescreen/lockscreen.. My second question then would be... are you on stock ICS ROM or on a custom one?
Some custom ROMS have some light blue border that is faintly visible when your trying to look at it. Nothing of a big deal though (to me in particular) as I know this is just a ROM (and therefore a software) issue and not on the hardware one (which would give me much more of a headache if that really happens)

Sliding pages cause pull back

Don't know how to put this, whenever I slide pages on my nexus 7, the page pulls back. Removing widgets seems to make it better. Anyone else having this issue? Sorry if this thread already exists. If it does can you direct me?

You are welcome !
But still weird that only few people have this issue ?
What rom and android version are you running ?
I am running rooted stock 4.2 with multi-user (GF^^).
To recap i have got the problem with :
- go launcher hd for pad
- nova launcher
- stock launcher
on the other hand no issue with go launcher ex.
I must add that i feel the UI very heavy.
when i am web browsing, pinch to zoom is not as reactive as on my one X.
Same thing about scrolling over a page.
Are you guys experiencing this aswell ?
I have this issue, and its VERY annoying.
I on the other hand, DON'T THINK ITS AN ISSUE! I think this is just normal.
The only reason we notice it, is we have devices that are much more responsive.
I have a HTC One X, and can literally flick the screen and it goes where I want it, the Nexus is more of a drag than a flick.

+1
Same for my S3 vs. the N7.
This could probably be "fixed" if the Lauchers were able to distinct a "flick" from a "swipe". On the phone I touch much more pixels with one flick, than on the tablet , due to its smaller screen.

I agree with what you say, but it seems there is a problem with the inertia.
Look at those screenshot https://www.evernote.com/shard/s64/...33f1f9e7d013/dd9030c957c51b5f1bc1fee19803038f
You'll see that the purple line go back instead of going straight. It acts as if the screen was too sensitive and was taking into account the fact that you lift your finger off the screen.
If you have an android phone, try to swipe with trace enable. You'll notice that the purple line go straight as it should.
For me at least on my one x, the pruple line (inertia) go straight and i have no problem when swiping through home screen.
Edit : Just to let you know. I have tried Apex launcher and it appears there is no "pull back" problem. Actually it is luquid smooth^^
I don't think it is a problem of launcher, as you can see on the screenshot I was not on the home app that the launcher is, but in chrome.
It happens no matter what app you are on, as I think it is either related to software or hardware.
But I must admit I feel like it is hardware.

Slow camera

Hi! Thank you for reading.
I've noticed a considerable amount of lag or slowlyness when using the camera of my I9070. I takes long to open the application plus it takes long to shoot the photo... for a cell phone that is faster than iPhone 4 I'd say that this is weird. I already sent the phone to warranty but they returned it with no solution or issue, they claim that this is the way the phone works.
What do you think? Do you all have this same issue?

I'd try also setting the ISO for ISO400, when I still was using GB it made my camera usable, but if you update to JB it got really faster there.

the reason for ur camera shoot delay is because of AUTOFOCUS it has to focus on the image first(take 2 sec) then capture...so if u switch it off,photos will be taken fast but unclear! your choice!
