[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
People really seem to love the lg camera, but what exactly does it do that Miui or AOSP doesn't?

I recently installed Weapon to see what I was missing and it didn't seem like much over Miui, so is there just something I'm missing?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aceofserenity:
The stock LG Camera UI is really nice compared to the stock GB Camera UI. I just looks different and doesn't have as easily accessible features
[T-Mobile LG G2x] babymatteo:
Compared to the Gingerbread Camera, LG supports 1080p recording, the ability to control ISO, and i believe Manual Focus as well.

That's why i love MIUI, it has everything you need.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Lg camera app also allows you to zoom in/out while video recording.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
is there any camera app in the market that would mimic the lg camera's features?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bballcat03:
Once you use the LG camera, you'll never be able to look at the stock camera the same again. I am speaking from experience.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
no all the camera apps in the market suck
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZeroT| Demented:
thank you op i think everyone here is extremely retarded because the lg cam is not that amazing i mean if u want a good cam go buy a legit one phone cameras will never be good
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Lol!! Get this one http://tinyurl.com/3bbrthp
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
But that's "YOUR" opinion you ignorant Phukk! its people like you who contribute to turning xda into a gigantic circus act!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
By that logic, why get a smartphone?

Android's music players sucks, get an iPod.

The web browser sucks, get a laptop.

The games suck, just get a PSP/DS.

Etc.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JuEv0splash:
Lol...I was thinking the same. I guess we're both retarded!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZeroT| Demented:
No im not retarded I use my phone as a phone u guys expect 2 much
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
Again, why get a smartphone? If you want to use your phone as a phone, Nokia makes some pretty good and cheap options.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mhsamma:
Face palm you guys.

P.S. I love LG Camera.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dreggs:
I dont think anyone here is "retarded" and expects their phone camera to be as good as a $300+ camera. BUT..when the capability is there for the hardware you have to be BETTER, than yes....its a pretty valid cause for attention. Personally, I have expensive camera..but do I want to lug them around with me 24/7? Of course not. Its nice to have a camera that I always have on me (since my phone is always on my person), that can take a pretty decent photo/video at a moments notice.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Rhodman:
The panoramic shot mode was also pretty cool
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
MIUI Camera is better IMO.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
Vignette all the way. There are apps better than the LG cam out there so why complain? I personally didn't like the LG cam because the preview was really blurry when you moved around. I don't like the GB cam either because it's ugly (like the LG cam).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
I like that camera as well but the ffc wasn't working correctly in my experience.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
It all comes down to everyones preference, i have used the LG camera and it is nice compared to a lot of other camera apps, but even i kinda just prefer using fastburst camera as it's lightweight and does the job.

No smartphone camera will ever do justice if your that serious about taking pics lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
I'm sure most people don't buy smartphones to take professional quality pictures with. My job sometimes require me to photo and video record footage. I don't need the best of video or photo quality for these specific task, but I do require decent clarity. To lug around a camcorder would be too much of an inconvenience. At the time, the g2x was perfect because of the camera features the lg camera app provided. Now that its been removed, I'm seriously considering other options if lg or the devs can't this app going 100%.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
They fixed it in yesterday's build! :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
On XDA? Last update september 5th
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Ooooohhhh, please give me the link!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Have you considered going back to a Froyo rom? I ended up doing that because it had the whole package, including the fully functional LG camera app.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Actually I did revert back to froyo awhile back when gb was ota'ing. What made me switch to gb again is when I noticed that the wifi and tmobile wifi calling app works terribly with froyo(i needed to put use to it for calling the irs and those call times are looonng!). Plus I'm a heavy data user and sometimes I like to use wifi instead of the carrier. After awhile the wifi seems up bog the froyo os resources, causing me to have to soft reset to get it snappy again. Gb hasn't caused any of these issues for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] scrizz:
tell that to my Nokia N8.

:p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
This is the Whitehawks port, not the one hosted here. IMO it's better, and he updates every Friday.

As for other camera apps, I'm halfway decent with Photoshop so I don't really care about in-app editing/filters, I'm just concerned with photo quality. It sounds like the LG cameras does improve video, but not photo.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Thanks, good looking out. I'll give this a try and see how it goes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
I've never had issues with wifi, but wifi calling DID have issues. My calls would get fuzzy after a while to the point I couldn't even understand the person. My solution was to replace the wifi calling app with the one that came with cm7, as its a newer version than the one that came with Froyo. I haven't had any issues with it since and I have some long conversations, sometimes over an hour.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Thanks for the suggestion, can you send me a link to cm wifi calling app please? I'd like to give froyo a shot again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PhantomRampage:
How can i install the miui camera on CM? I tried putting it in system/apps/ and fixing the permissions after removing the stock cam, but it wont install.

Also tried: adb install MiuiCamera.apk but i get this error

1307 KB/s (499030 bytes in 0.372s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/MiuiCamera.apk

[T-Mobile LG G2x] goldeman:
The lg camera doesn't compress the image as much, and has more options. Take a pic of the same thing with both cameras. You'll notice size is different and a little better quality
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
I just sent you a PM with a link to download it from my dropbox.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
OK greatly appreciated, will do.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
@phburks hey thanks again for putting me up on the updated wifi calling app. With froyo, everything works as it should now. Once again I'm very happy with this phone!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Great to hear! Did you go with stock Froyo or did you choose a custom Froyo rom? I'm using Ultimate G2X 1.0 and its a pretty sweet rom, including the fully functional LG camera app.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
I went with stock froyo. I'm always a fan of good stock, and minimum hacks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rymenigmatic:
LG camera definitely brighter than cm7's..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
i actually love this camera! it is a HUGE improvement over my old phone and i'm very happy
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aceofserenity:
Yea, I mean HD recording is pretty sweet for a phone. It's just convenient cause you bring your phone everywhere as opposed to a camcorder.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
i honestly think this camera on the g2x sucks so bad. i came from a mytouch 4g and i think it was way better quality in pictures but not as good in video and frame rate. but i had the sensation 4g before the g2x and the sensation took better pics and videos but the mic for video in the g2x is much better. but hands down the g2x is a much faster phone then the sensation but idk how the sensation is, now that it got 2.3.4 cause i heard they fixed some lag
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AllAboutAndroids:
I have used many other android phone's camera apps and they all suck! The LG is one of the nicest, the only sad part is that it doesn't have a dedicated camera button. However you could still use the power button or volume buttons to take pictures.

:)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] babymatteo:
Haha. Nokia N8 would've been nice with 1080p recording tho.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] estylo:
LG Camera was nice for me...I had some incredible Manual Focus shots and out focused ones....incredible! The filters were an added bonus but u can easily do that with Photoshop if u know how to. Great quality...I tried MyTouch 4g/ Galaxy S and Evo 4g cams...all were butt compared to this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] 3617:
While I was using the of camera in noticed there's an option named Ice and video encoded can anyone tell me what it is
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
Ucam is pretty good. It's in the market.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mhsamma:
Thank you for the UCam advise bro.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
No problem :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
Try this.

Take some pictures as usual, then take the phone's back off and, while holding it so the battery doesn't fall out, take pictures of the same things then compare them on your computer. The phone's back has a protective transparent window which affects the image quality. I bought a cheap high-capacity battery which comes with a deeper back to accommodate the thicker battery that doesn't have a transparent window in it, it has nothing in the hole where the camera is. I found that the image quality is improved without the protective transparent window. After you compare the pictures, tell us what you think.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
I actually removed the glass when I first got the phone. I still have it the phone isn't as pretty without it but not getting sunflashed while taking pictures. The glass messes up with all super detail.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] txr_maxx:
I wish the auto focus was as good as the galaxy s camera, I remember without flash I always took amazing pics and if there was a dark spot on your frame then I'd simply push that area and it would lighten it, I've tried all of the above cameras and none come close to that, So far the bravia hack and whitehawks LG cam post are the ones I've settled for, and I keep Ucam in the app tray just in case.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreadj72:
Hi all,

I'm an happy owner of a Desire HD smartphone with "Android revolution HD 6.1.0" ROM loaded.

When I drive, Car dock mode is very usefull and user friendly but when I need to run a Nav software I don't use the one gived by default because I don't like it.

There's a way to write a mod that give the possibility tapping the nav button in Car dock mode, to choose with different nav software?

Thanks... :p

Edit: I'm talking about the custom one.. Please do not tell me to download other Car dock app (I already know that there are several). I like this one and I only would like to know if something can be done. That's it!

[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
Ended up buying it... Coming from a thunderbolt I am hoping to see a little more consistency in cell signal and battery life. One thing that struck me was the nightmare stories of the pentile screen. I previously owned an Atrix on AT&T and it was horrible... They appear to have made improvements to the quality of the screen though its still slightly noticeable especially on moving video.

I compared this phone next to the droid charge and I gotta saw... Not a fan of the SAMOLED + screen. Comparing the same youtube video, the Charge made everyone look green! Every color was so far off being accurate that it was painful to look at. Now the Bionic has its own issues with the color yellow (looks brown) but not quite as bad as the Atrix.

All in all I am hopeful for this phone. The charge screen actually made me reconsider waiting for the Prime. I couldnt stand to look at something that far off all day.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nrage23:
Side by side with my thunderbolt the screen is amazing in the sunlight. Check out this review from Phone Arena. They compare all 4 LTE phones.

http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/M...-Samsung-Droid-Charge-vs-LG-Revolution_id2820
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
Still have the same hotspot problem at work... i think hotspot kills all data to your phone if the signal isnt strong enough :( Or the tower near my work is bad.
[Xoom General] dpwaters72:
NOTE: I am asking this question here because I don't have enought posts to ask under the "Android Development" section......even though I am on this site all the time. LOL!! Guess I need to post more...

Anyways, I am running the following (which is AWESOME by the way):

ROM: Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.2 "Moray"

Kernel: Tiamat Xoom 2.1.0 "Tachi"

Recovery: ClockworkMod 4.0.0.4

The problem I am having is that every now and then, the screen flickers and my icons sometimes disappear. I notice this mainly when I try to change my wallpaper, add apps to a page or just casual scrolling between the pages. I've also noticed it happens under Google Music Beta and have also noticed that the album covers artwork and progress bar when playing music is distorted sometimes.

Please advise.
[Xoom General] hector_122:
it happened with me yesterday while playing angry birds rio, the screen flickered for like 2 seconds then was ok, it happened like 2-3 times in 5 mins period then stopped

iam running Rom tiamat 2.2 moray

no kernels

recovery tiamat R4c
[Xoom General] dpwaters72:
So, no one else has seen this event? I'm wondering is something is corrupt somewhere on my Xoom. Just to outline some of the things that I am seeing:

1) In Google Music Beta and under Albums, the album artwork is distorted on the top row only. All of the other rows of album artwork is fine.

2) On any of the screens, if I click on Apps at the top rights of the screen to bring up the list of apps on my Xoom, sometimes the apps will disappear from the page, my wallpaper distorts and then the apps re-appear in about 10 secs.

3) If I click on the + icon at the top right to go to the screen to add apps to a screen or change my wallpaper, the available apps will not show or the display of the available screens is blank.

NOTE: This does not happen all the time, maybe once or twice during the evening while playing on my Xoom. I'm living with it but it is annoying......
[Xoom General] Lizzo:
i get that same flickering..but only when powering it on, and it only happens sometimes...dunno why :/
[Xoom General] dpwaters72:
I played around with it on yesterday while I was updating my cached Slacker Radio stations (heavy wifi use) and noticed it then. I also think that it may be caused by high-cpu usage even though I only have my CPU clocked at 1.2Ghz. If I clock it higher, all of my screens are distorted.
[Xoom General] LPHS:
well i know that the tachi kernel has that little flicker in the motorola logo

have you guys tried flashing any other kernel
[Xoom General] okantomi:
The boot-up distortion has nothing to do with screen flicker within the os.

I Have the Commtiva N700 version and have not put any new rom

I thought I should check my version so on power down

then with volume up and power button

found

then it infinitely repeats

polling, get oemsbl_mode = 1......

I can not get out of this mode - I dont think i can shut the battery off which mean I may need to wait for it to run out is this true ??

There must be a way for me to come out of this without waiting for battery to die.

Any help appreciated

Hi everyone!

Now we have a possibility to change kernel in our x10 mini pro, so I have a question to Developers. Is it possible that we get USB OTG? IMO it's a great feature and I read in x8 section that they work on it.

im looking for a guide or some help in regards to changing the digitizer on my phone and maybe the lcd if its cracked.

also i need to know how to change the keypad only if all other things are working fine.

any help would be greatly appreciated. im a newbie but im willing to learn and put the work in.

thank you very much
[HD2 General] naifs_br10:
no guides ? no tutorials?

im surprised and shocked...

somebody must be out there who must have tried to repair the screen and digitizer themselves

if i can get any tips or tricks or anything i would be humbly greatful

please and thank you :)

plus what about changing the digitizer and the lcd. i want to do it and try it out myself so i can learn as well you know.

lol i dont know if this is interesting enough but im desperate :(

[Motorola Droid 3] suzook:
Bionic got it last night, just curious if anyone knows when we might see it? Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] erismaster:
We have one, its almost completly functional, we'll see it soon.we have an apk to easily install it also.backup and restore works great.
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
I have to admit I'm a little bummed that the Bionic got recovery and cvpcs has already successfully booted CM7 on it... where's our devs at? :(
[Motorola Droid 3] lordgodgeneral:
They're going elsewhere because they're tired of hearing everyone whining and complaining that they aren't doing enough
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
I'm not complaining. I understand that it is largely a payless and thankless job. I'm just saying it sucks that a phone that has only been out for 9 days already has more development for it then one that has been out almost 3 months when the hardware is essentially the same. I mean, the Bionic got Fastboot Recovery in like 5 days when it took us 2 months. I'm aware that we will get everything the Bionic does, it just seems like we'll always be second in line. In the long run it doesn't matter, both phones will have 2nd-init and ICS/CM8 in the future.
[Motorola Droid 3] suzook:
Lol...not complaining. Was just curious.
[Motorola Droid 3] rweb:
I do not like the demanding attitude some people seem to have, so I'm not sure it's even worth to reply in this thread ... anyway ...

Keep in mind it took a lot of time to have D3 even rooted, while Bionic users and devs just benefitted from the D3 root exploit.
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
I too am honestly a bit pissed that the bionic got more attention given it is riding the dev wave of d3.

Oh well.
[Motorola Droid 3] Droid2Life:
A couple have guys have been working side by side with cvpcs to get it up and running. They're making sure that there aren't any bugs before they release it.

The last thing we want is ruining a bunch of D3's because we released it early. They said a release today is probably a good bet.
[Motorola Droid 3] suzook:
Who's demanding? I was just curious. I didn't think this thread was gonna turn into a crapstorm.
[Motorola Droid 3] jweber228:
I bet part of the reason the bionic is getting all this attention is the fact that its been out for months in the form of the atrix. Plus the amount of hype it has had over the last several months. Recovery is coming along nicely for our D3's
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
Yeah, I'm not worried about being passed up for the Bionic. I know we will get all the same releases. Just sucks being second best I suppose. :P

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedtyyyme:
My phone has been acting really weird. Throughout the day, I will check my phone and see the time. I am using Fancy Widget Pro and for some reason, after a while, the time on the widget and system no longer match. It's about a 5 to 15 minute difference. It really depends. I was also using setCPU and when I would charge it and the take out the charger, SetCPU would not change back to the profile that I made. Another problem I have noticed is when I plug the USB-microUSB from the computer to the phone, when I finish and take the cord out, the computer knows it's gone, but my phone still thinks it is there. The only other problem I can think of, which is the biggest, is I don't think I am receiving text messages. I sent a couple to myself, and never got them. The only way that I know to fix this problem is to restart my phone, but I never get those texts back. Any help would be awesome. I have already tried Odin and going back to a different stock ROM. I have also done countless factory resets. I have no clue what is going on. If you need anymore info on what I am running or anything, just let me know. Once again, any help would be awesome.

P.S. I am on EH06, deodexed and pre-rooted. I also flashed maddoggin's lockscreen mod. I don't know if that helps, but I might as well put it there.

Thank you.
