Motorola Xoom :: Bootup Screen Blurry - Display Fuzzy And Grainy In Videos
Nov 6, 2011
I recently purchased the xoom 32 wifi and got it up and running. It is using the 3.2 system and immediately when I turned it on I noticed that the boot up screen (blue honeycomb screen) was very blurry. Once it booted up I went on the browser and noticed that some of the ad boxes on the browser, dolphin and default were fuzzy and grainy. I also noticed that videos that opened and played from web pages were a little blurry. This is not the case with my friends aseus. We did a side by side. Is this normal for the xoom? Especially the blurry boot up screen?

I have started having problems with my N96, i've had since January 2009 and have had no problems until now.
The screen has started sticking when entering the menus, internet, games etc. It becomes distorted and fuzzy. It seems to have a tendancy to turn purple and green in places.
I have already done the master reset on the phone and downloaded the most recent software (as recommended by Voda when I took the phone into them today) but it hasn't worked and I am still getting the same problem.

Any thoughts on why I takes my Xoom about 8-10 minutes to bootup? I will admit I have something like 400 apps on it but the main flash still has 20gb free on it. Once booted up it seems to run pretty normally. Is there a way for me to speed the boot process up?

Originally I had a US Xoom. After the 3.1 update, so many months ago, it started rebooting almost as soon as it had booted. The reboot trigger seemed to be when it connected with the Wifi. A factory reset would cure it for a few hours but otherwise turning off the wifi was the only permanent solution.Motorola fixed it by giving me a UK Xoom - and 3.0. And it was good until the much anticipated, and delayed, 3.1 update, and it started again. After a bit i realised it was a combination of an old and slightly unreliable Wifi base-station and, I assume, a change in the Android Wifi s/w that made it less tolerant of imperfections. Now I reboot the base-station.

I was wondering if anyone is aware how to play Demand 5 videos(http://www.channel5.com/demand5) in full screen mode.The video is in Flash and plays fine in normal mode. Yet, when I attempt to tap on 'full screen' button, I am taken to the advertiser's page and video stops working.The particular video I was trying to play is of latest 'Fifth Gear'This is not only problem with XOOM, I noticed it on Sony tablet too as well as on PlayBook.

I have a XOOM WiFi I bought from Staples on launch day. A couple of days ago the screen started turning blue. If the device sits unused (such as overnight) the next morning it is fine for about a minute or two. Then it turns blue again. The blue corruption moves. If I try to scroll up on a list that is already scrolled as far as it can go a blue "halo" appears at the bottom of the screen for as long as I hold my finger on the screen. It disappears after a few seconds. I've already tried a soft reset. I haven't tried a factory wipe yet as I was hoping to avoid that.

i got my iphone 5s a few months ago. 2 weeks ago i was at a concert and i noticed the screen on the right corner of my phone is loose. At the time i didnt think much of it but its only been getting worse. this isnt the worst part. sometimes the whole screen gets dark and fuzzy and the only way to fix it is by pressing down on the loose part of the screen. i dont know if it is my fault that the screen is loose or not.

Recently I had a white strip appear at the bottom of my home screens. If I change wallpaper it stays. If you double click home to minimize and show all windows, it dissappears.

My screen recently started to play up.rather than the perfect bright picture I have a very grainy,barcode like mess on my phone.When i push the screen down with a little pressure it returns to normal but for a very limited time then it goes all wonky again. It feels like something has become loose inside the phone that keeps the screen working normally.It is getting worse and i dont want to lose my phone iv only had it 1 month! I have only dropped it once or twice no water has been near it and I cant think of anything else which may have caused this. Ill be gutted if it packs in on me. heard about a lot of problems with this phone my friends have the same problems as me.Has anybody else had this problem?can anyone recommend a solution to this?Please help.

I just got a Xoom wifi with 4.1.1 as a gift. I have a droid 4 and many mp4 videos that play on it with no problem. My Xoom will not even allow me to transfer the video to it saying the format is not supported. Why can I play these on droid 4 and not on Xoom. Is there a problem with the software in the Xoom?

I like to download instructional videos (how-tos) and then burn them to CD or DVD for future use. I bought a Xoom so I could download at a faster speed (4G) but now can't figure how to save them and transfer them to my PC for burning. I have tethered Xoom to PC but can't seem to find any files saved that look like the video I watched on Xoom .

Just received a 32GB PNY Class 10 card and installed it in my 3G Xoom. Everything appears to be working, create directories, copied videos to the Video directory, etc. The same videos I moved to the SD card all played just fine from the default directory.Video app sees the videos, but when I attempt to open a video the screen dims and nothing happens. I've stopped the Video app, cleared the cache, and unmounted and remounted the SD Card.

I have never had this happen to any other Nokia LCD device before or any other similar device that I have owned. There is definitely some strange issue, as when the screen goes fuzzy, if you lock the phone and then place it on or near a heat source for a few moments, when you unlock it the screen is mysteriously working again. This is a very frustrating issue which is exacerbated by the fact that the device is of the touchscreen variety which effectively renders it useless as if you can't see the screen then you can't see the buttons to control the infernal machine! Unless that is you are able to memorise the menus positions and also that of their sub-menus and options! Anyway, one thing I will say is that the service from Nokia is absolutely amzing when it comes to repairing them. I used the online form at http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/repair/repair/warranty?c=1 and they sent a UPS guy who arrived to collect the device the ver next day! That was last Monday, the 29th March, and I received back a brand new Nokia 5800 today!
Obviously rather than repair the device they have just replaced it with the revised model that they are obviously producing now that they have realised and rectified their errors. I am very impressed with getting a new device and so quickly too! Only thing is, they don't send you a new back for the phone, as they tell you to keep yours at home and not send it to them, so if your back is worn it will look out of place with the brand new phone if thats the route that they take with your case, which I think they will, or rather should. That is because I have heard that people that were getting their original device repaired and returned to them the problem was recurring soon after it being returned to the user. Props to Nokia though on replacing my 5800! I must say that at first when I sent it I thought I was going to be waiting for ages, but as I said I only waited a week and they even have a widget on their repair part of the site that tells you the status of your repair and where they are with it, all you have to do it type in your case number.

on the first day i tested the camera, which worked just fine.But 3 or 4 days later, the camera suddenly stopped working. When i open any camera app, and i really mean any, the display shows me a blurry, wrong colored image, and when i press the button to take the picture, the shutter sound sounds, the display turns black, the app freezes and the picture is not saved.I have repaired the update several times, through PC Companion and Service Update.

When I uprgraded my Xoom wi-fi to ICS, Amazon Prime videos became totally unviewable. I almost gave up ever being able to use the Xoom for viewing streaming videos again. Then I read, on this forum, that Adobe had upgraded Flash and that now the videos should be okay. I have since watched bout 4 or 5 videos and they were very smooth without a single hiccup or sign of dropped frames. However, I tried to watch "Explorers" and it is totally unviewable with jerky sound and blocky video. I tried restarting it several times with no change. Then I picked a different video, also on Amazon Prime, and it worked fine.

I ordered my Xoom from amazon.com, and exactly one day after their 30 day return period my tablet awakened showing only vertical lines. I am able to do a forced power-up (Volume up, power) but all you can see is the tablet going through the appropriately-colored start sequence, complete with the pulsating blue and purple honeycomb sequence - but with only somewhat compressed vertical lines. You can't really see where anything is on the screen, which has made it impossible to really acheive a factory reset start sequence. I've tried searching for this problem and haven't found it anywhere. I was wondering if anyone else had seen this.
Motorola suggested checking with place of purchase for return/exchange policy and/or returning the tablet to them. Mainly I'm curious if any others have experienced this and to let anyone who is know that they aren't the only one.
I love my Xoom, and after only 36hrs without it I am already missing it. Not looking forward to another couple of weeks.

Wondering if anyone else has experienced 5-10 thin blue lines/streaks in their display (red on a black background). I first noticed the issue when using my Kindle app a few months ago. Eventually they disappeared but now they've returned. It has been several days and like last time, don't go away with a device reboot or reset.

The temperature display in my notification bar updates only sporadically. I noticed some discussion of this in the past, but no answers. I'd like to know either how to make it update more frequently or turn it off!

I have this strange screen problem with my k850i, it doesn't go blank, but gets all fuzzy with lots of horizontal lines (very pixelated), you can still see the screen images, but it's difficult - and then all of a sudden it comes back picture perfect. I've updated all software, run a repair - everything I can think of. I can't figure out if it's a loose wire or something else.

i just recently got the xoom, it convinced me enough on reviews and looks but now i'm frustrated beyond belief. one of the main reasons i wanted a tablet was to use it to view videos online without having to download them and transfer them over.but that's all gone down hill since i brought home the xoom. i love it, my family loves it but it keeps dropping the connection only when i view videos. be it Internet or anything else, my connection will be dropped at about a minute but before reaching two minutes. basically all i have ever gotten to view is two minutes into videos before i get cut off. i can be standing right next to my router with perfect connection on everything but as soon as a video begins to play the connection gets dropped and i'm stuck with a brick in my hand.
i've tested it out with other devices such as my phone, and my 2 laptops, even the family wii and videos play like a charm. the xoom however likes to give me a small preview and then cut me off. i've looked into the problem all over the internet and haven't found any solution. before i get the whole it's your router spiel it's only happening when i try streaming a video. i've updated all i could think off to the latest versions but to no avail. i even focused on looking at the wifi indicator to see that it will have strong signal and be working perfectly but at around a minute and a half it shoots down the connection and shoots back up. this isn't a problem if i'm just browsing the web but the videos don't seem to resume loading after it gets the connection back.

I can listen to music and watch videos on my Xoom2 via Wi-Fi from my computer but when I try the same music or videos from a USB Flash Drive, I can see all the files but when I try to play any of them the Xoom2 goes to "Settings".

I use a Bluetooth headset (Best Buy brand) when watching videos on my Xoom WiFi. However, the sound is nearly a second behind the video. I have the same problem when using the bluetooth headphones with my HP notebook. I understand that Bluetooth requires a lot more processing than hard-wired headphones. However, a fast processor such as the one in the Xoom should have negligible processing delay. I suppose the headphones could contribute most of the delay, but I still find it hard to accept that delay should be so long. I use digital hearing aids that have a 32 channel digital filter. The hearing instruments have to first do an A to D conversion, then process the audio and convert it back to Analog before sending the signal to the output transducer. Yet the delay through the hearing aids is negligible. Why is the delay so long through bluetooth or are the Best Buy headphones just crap? I really like using wireless headphones. Wired headphones are always getting tangled or I forget about the wires and walk away from my notebook and either yank the headphones off my head or come very close to dragging the notebook onto the floor.
