Hi

My droid x2 camera is not auto focussing

It seems the bug is mentioned here http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/motorola-droid-camera-autofocus-fixed-in-secrecy/

I had changed the date to a month back and the camera is autofocussing now.

I have the latest GB 2.3.4

Can someone please let me know if there is a fix for this.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid X2] debolt:
Yes, this is quite annoying. Reformatting works for me for a day or so then its messed up again.
[Motorola Droid X2] addisoj:
Have you tried holding down the "Shutter" button for a second or two then releasing? It seems that this has worked for me in the past.

I know the camera on the CM7 ROM works great! Has video camera, zooming features, different white balance features, self-timer, etc etc etc all built-in to the camera app.

You can read more about it at: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1442803

Enjoy!
[Windows Phone 7 General] NikoVrdoljak:
I was preparing my WP7 Silverlight app for publishing, and started to conduct tests in Marketplace Test Kit in VS. When I started Launch Time test in Monitored Tests group, result was 5-6 seconds time for launch (5 seconds is time launch limit for passing Marketplace Application Requirements; 5.2.1.) Which is strange since my app runs in one second. I started with some code optimization but no improvements. I even commented all code except InitializeComponent() call, and results were same. My app is not complex; it is Pivot app with three pivot items, one Bing Map, location and network services and some number of usual WP7 controls.

Then I start investigating. Empty WP7 app took 1.8 seconds. I you add only Bing Map control, lunch time is 4.0 to 4.4 seconds (sic!). Even very simple "Bing Map Sample" from MSDN (see Code Samples for Windows Phone) took 4.8 seconds.

I am simple confused with this MTK behaviour. Definitely Launch Time test does not provide real results (1 second in reality and 6 seconds in test), and seems that Bing Map Silverlight control cause this inconsistence. I don't know how any app with maps can pass this requirement if test are strange like this one. Does anyone notice same behaviour? I use LG E900 device.

HI Guys,

Back to forum after a few years of Iphone use.

I now have a Galaxy S2, brilliant phone. :)

Fast does everything can not fault it in any way, apart form it

runs very hot during use.

After 15 mins on a phone call it was almost unbearable to use because it was so hot.

Is there cure for this.?

Is my phone faulty.?

I use a sillicone case, could this be retaining some heat.?

Can some offer some advice please. thanks.:eek:

Use custom kernel.. Speedmod or siyah..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schindler33:
Underclocking also helps a lot. You can easily underclock it to 800 MHz without the device feelings slower on "normal" use.

Use setCPU or CPUmaster for that.

To do both do i need to unlock it.? ( root )

I am still reading up on the phone.

Thanks for your help so far though guys.

'ello, gents. I just got my first Android phone and I seem to not be able to access 4GB of the internal memory. Under application storage, it has my available space as 4GB+, but won't let me install applications to it. I downloaded the disk usage app and it shows only 561MB total instead of approx 4561MB that should be there. I now have 62MB of internal space left and as I was typing this I got yet another warning that I am out of space. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

[Motorola Atrix 2] cheetablaze:
I think when I turned on my phone i had roughly 4.5 GB available for usage. I so far have only used up aroun 500 mb. Everything else goes on my 16gb SD card. What all do you have installed on your internal to eat that much space up?

You could always try to wipe the device clean and start brand new.
[Motorola Atrix 2] thelegume:
Well, I have a few apps installed, but my point is that the space isn't being used--it won't let me use it. The phone thinks that there is only 550MB total internal space, and, for some reason, ignores the other 4GB (see the screenshot I posted). I have been throwing everything on the sd card and even ordered a big sd card for this purpose, but I still want to fix this issue. When I try to click on application space under application storage to get some options our something, nothing happens. It looks like I might need to just reinstall from scratch to see if that fixes it. I mostly wanted to see if others were having this issue our if it was a known bug. Thanks again for any insights.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
That 4gb of space is specifically for your apps, if ur phone isnt recognizing or accessing it then u need to return it cause its faulty.
[Motorola Atrix 2] azangerle:
same issue here... 500MB out of 4GB used internal. All the rest of my apps are going on the SD card.
[Motorola Atrix 2] thelegume:
I'm going to see if I can make it over to the at&t store and see what they have to say about it, but if anyone figures out what's going on, let me know. I plan on flashing MIUI as soon as its out, so I don't know if that will resolve the issue, but its probably better to not wait and see.
[Motorola Atrix 2] azangerle:
I appologize in advance if this is a bit rambling.

I spent some time troubleshooting the issue and it does seem like the Atrix 2 has some difficulty using internal app storage.

Using the default App storage viewer (settings > Applications > storage use) it shows the correct size of 4gig, but using DiskUsage I was only seeing a size of 561MB.

I started to test this by installing apps till i hit the 561MB limit and sure enough at ~560 it started complaining that there was no more room available for some apps and for others it started to install them on the SD card.

So i decided to try and force an app to internal storage. DiskUsage showed 9MB free and I had a 25MB app installed on the SD card. Using the default app manager I moved the app back to the phone and it installed, thus taking up all the free space shown by DiskUsage, but at the same time increasing the size of the disk to accomidate for the overage. All subsequent app installs have gone to the internal storage, increasing the disk size in DiskUsage.

More to come..
[Motorola Atrix 2] cloudedhopes:
How did u move or force install on internal storage?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jbradt:
the legume - did you make it to AT&T and did they have anything to say?
[Motorola Atrix 2] thelegume:
I haven't yet, but using azangerle's idea, I seem to have resolved the issue. It looks like you need to force the phone past the approx 500MB barrier by moving an app to the sd card, filing up the 500MB internal storage and then once the phone says that its out of internal storage, move the app from the sd card back into internal. It will allow it to be copied, and you should be able to use the rest of the 4GB of storage afterwards (I'm almost to 2GB used with apps and haven't had any problems).

I'm still going to ask at&t about it when I can make it over there, but its not as high a priority new that we've found a workaround.
[Motorola Atrix 2] thelegume:
If you go to applications > manage applications > and then select an application, you can choose to have the app moved to the sd card (or back to internal)
[Motorola Atrix 2] cloudedhopes:
Ah OK. Thnx. I see a few tabs there... downloaded, all, on SD card... what does the 'on SD card' mean? I definitely have not moved any to SD and if I go on an application I am still getting the option to move to SD :/
[Motorola Atrix 2] azangerle:
They are only on the SD card if they have the green checkmark, even if they are on the SD card tab. Its very confusing.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Thanks for clearing that up, I wondered about that cause I know I hadn't moved any apps to my sdcard yet it told me I have a few on there. Maybe because they were installed off of it???
[Motorola Atrix 2] cloudedhopes:
Nope I installed it from market. I think these are the ones that can be moved to SD?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
I was questioning why it showed like that on my phone. I have found some good info though

If you go into manage apps and click on the "on sdcard tab" unless there is a green checkmark next to the app it is not actually on your sdcard. Weird, but that's how it is.
[Motorola Atrix 2] cloudedhopes:
I can live with that. Just wondering what on SD card means...
[Motorola Atrix 2] djyuran:
Has anyone known how to have access to internal storage?

I'd like to copy some movies to it but get "Access Denied"

Is internal storage available for an user???
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Nope, it is inaccessible, even after rooting.
[Motorola Atrix 2] djyuran:
Thank you for information!

What's the purpose of internal storage?

Is it default place for installation of the new applications?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Exactly!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
I have the free one and I have it set to "aggressive." I'm losing 10-15% of my battery overnight. Is that normal? I'm on Weapon 3.0 rom, no extra kernel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
I used to use it but stopped several months ago. The easiest way for you to tell if it makes a difference would be to let it sit for a set period of time with Juice Defender running, and then let it sit for the same amount of time again in the same spot without it running and see which gives you better results.

Just curious, why don't you leave your phone on the charger overnight?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
I kinda always thought it was bad for your battery to overcharge it? If I leave over night, it would be getting to 100% and sit there til I wake up. Am I wrong to think that? Cause I'd gladly let it charge over night
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
I leave mine in the charger all night and reboot each morning. No ill effects that I have noticed. I get great battery life and it has never crashed. I am happy to trade a slightly lower overall life for the battery to have a good full charge every morning.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
It won't overcharge. The phone stops charging once it reaches 100% so you don't have to worry about damage to your battery. There are no doubt varying opinions on what is "best" for a lithium ion battery and I'm not arguing that those opinions aren't accurate. I've always kept my phones plugged in overnight, whether smartphones or otherwise. I've never had any noticeable decline in battery capacity. A battery's lifespan is usually measured in number of charge cycles, so the way I see it is that the more you charge and discharge it, the more quickly you'll need to replace your battery. Even if I'm wrong, I still start each day with a full battery that has always gotten me through the day and if I have to replace my battery a wee bit sooner than the next person then so be it. At least I don't have to worry about my battery running out each day.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
Thanks! I will give it a try!

When I go on holiday I'll take my Asus Transformer with me but was wondering is there any way to transfer any photo's I take on my Canon camera to the Asus? I won't have access to a PC, my camera uses a SD card and of course the Asus is Micro SD, any idea's would be much appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperzero:
get a micro sd card with a SD card adapter?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zetor12:
yes I do have a micro SD adaptor but this does not help me, the photo's will be on my Canon camera SD card which will not fit into the Asus micro SD socket, normally with access to a pc it isn't a problem to transfer the photo's, so what I need to do is to get them onto the Micro SD card, this can't be done with the adaptor.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperzero:
then remove the micro sd card from your TF. put it in the adapter and then magically the photos will be on the micro sd card. and on a simpler note

no. either get another micro sd card with an adapter, and use it on your camera. after you are done just unplug it and put it in your TF :/
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
Yes, instead of using your SD card in your camera, use the MicroSD with adapter card in the camera. Then all you have to do is remove the MicroSD card and adapter from the camera and then remove the MicroSD from the adapter and then place the MicroSD card into the TF.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperzero:
Logic!, supremely executed
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
Or, you can buy the Dock/Keyboard which has an SD reader built in. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperzero:
lol that too. but i doubt the fella is going to do that :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
It's more logical to get a Keyboard/dock because it will actually help in the resell value of the TF when you eventually get ready to sell it. People are more apt to get the whole package instead of just a partail one.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperzero:
true. i mean the main point of the TF is the ability to change into a netbook.

kinda reminds me of the old head masters :D everytime i dock the TF in the back of my head i yell "HEAD ON!!"
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zetor12:
Yes that would work but the drawback would be that I would have to keep swapping between the micro SD card and the SD card when I want to record video as my camera takes HD video at 1080 and I don't think my micro SD card would be fast enough.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperzero:
get the dock :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
The dock is your best bet at this point. The price has been lowered enough now that it worth it's weight in gold so-to-speak.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steven_nl:
You can also buy the ASUS usb adapter. (which is a flimsy piece of c**p), but you can connect an USB cable to your cam and to the adapter which goes in the power connector of the TF.

If you have a Canon DSLR you can even control the cam with your TF https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.dslrcontroller

You might have to restart you TF to get it working. But it does work
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajamils:
Get Eye-Fi Pro. In direct mode, it automatically connects to TF and upload all new pictures. I've been using for few months with wife's Canon 300HS and absolutely love it.

[HTC Sensation] DuratecPaul:
Hi Guys not trying to scare anyone couldnt post in developers section, so brought it out here.

Was running RevolutionHD 4.1.5 and wanted to use the 2-way phone recorder.

so installed Bricked-Kernel v1.4r1 installed the radio and cleared dalvik cache and installed system tuner pro so I could underclock 50%.

I noticed it was getting very hot right bottom side under sd microSD card and the screw at right bottom was 70c plus. So I am leaning towards graphics chip being over clocked to far and damaging the connector.

The screen faded to black so i turned it off pulled battery let it cool down and tried a reboot.

System boots and buttons are responsive, no screen , backlights are there.

heat build up is quick and really hot.

Also just connecting the battery, it lights up and starts generating heat.

but still can be booted.

I did under clock and set to boot but did not try to undervolt and set to boot.

Not angry or blaming anyone --->> show-p1984 :mad::D

just putting it out there as a report kinda thing.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Sorry, I doubt it's the kernel. Sometimes things go wrong when installing software. Something went wrong.

Less likely, but still possible, hardware issue. Things do break sometimes.

Can you boot to recovery or bootloader? Does screen work in recovery? Do you know/use ADB? What happens when you're connected via ADB?

Hope you can sort this out.

P.
[HTC Sensation] krogoth:
Try to enter bootloader. From there You will see if your phone is really damaged. You can also flash stock firmware from there, even blind. It will not be hard. I don't think that kernel is Your LCD killer, so try flashing stock and send it to warranty repair.
[HTC Sensation] boulder_boy:
1st Question: Why would you want to underclock by 50% !?!?

2nd Question: What clock speed did you set it at?

3rd Question: Was the Kernel running fine at the default clock speed?

I haven't used system tuner myself - but if i'm not mistaken you can also set the cpu voltages? Did you change anything there OR maybe you had to change the voltage and didn't?

It could also simply be a hardware failure waiting to happen. I had the same problem with my first sensation. After I moved from ARHD 3.5.2 to 3.6.0 my phone died when I was playing a game. This was due to a slightly faulty graphics chip. I use to have random restarts when I was on stock ROM but never thought about why it happened until my phone died.

My phone has been fixed by HTC and is all good now :D
[HTC Sensation] DuratecPaul:
Yeah I Have tried to boot to recovery, But its like hitting baseballs blindfolded.

as for ADB Ive got it and used it be4, but havent tried this option yet, Nor do I know all the commands I need to use... good thing search is here 8)
[HTC Sensation] DuratecPaul:
1st Question: Why would you want to underclock by 50% !?!?

2x 780000 is plenty fast enough helps with the battery and theres not many programs I use that needs more than that speed atm

2nd Question: What clock speed did you set it at?

I had it set to low 34.6mhz and to a high of 96mhz ondemand gov.

3rd Question: Was the Kernel running fine at the default clock speed?

yes but was warm ...nothing abnormal tho

I haven't used system tuner myself

I did the cpu clock, tested for half a day.

then set it to boot. was fine.

I set the voltages lower ran them for other half of day, but never set them to boot.

It could also simply be a hardware failure waiting to happen. I had the same problem with my first sensation. After I moved from ARHD 3.5.2 to 3.6.0 my phone died when I was playing a game. This was due to a slightly faulty graphics chip. I use to have random restarts when I was on stock ROM but never thought about why it happened until my phone died.

Yes Ive had the gaming/App crashes on stock kernal too

Yeah Im considering doing a DIY screen replacement, but Im thinking this wont cure it.

And then you get to sort out that nasty lag with the digitiser after doing it
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
what kind of clocks are these, are you serious?
[HTC Sensation] Nekromantik:
+1

either its a typo or :eek:

surprised the phone even worked at these clocks.
[HTC Sensation] r3v0Lut10n:
just to be clear. if you boot into recovery (with fully powered off, holding vol- and power button) nothing appears on screen ?
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Um, minimum clock on most kernels is 192MHz or thereabouts.

If you were really clocked as low as claimed (though I don't see how), I see why phone would blow up.

P.
[HTC Sensation] Nekromantik:
He said his max was 96mhz....you do realise no android phone can run at that max speed? esp a Sense 3 based Sensation. You need at least 400mhz peak freq to be able to use the phone without lag.

but yes that wont cause the screen it go off so not the problem.
[HTC Sensation] wicketr:
Nah, his phone just hasn't finished booting up yet. It takes a few hours at that speed. :D
[HTC Sensation] DuratecPaul:
aww dang ... yeah was a typo

was 360 and 920mhz.

but still is fried unfortunately and generating heat....

hmm gonna have to use my gal s2 till this gets fixed
