On the internal.

I am normally on a SGS2. This droid xt860 is the phone of my friend. He didn't buy another sd. So there is only 1 sd card where also all the app folders etc are. So yeah internal.

It should be there right?

Anyone has red tint on photo taken using Lumia 800?

Mine has it when the ambient light is not strong...
[Nokia Lumia 800] htc12345:
i have tinted photos as well. the auto color balance is horrible. all pictures are sepia-ish
[Nokia Lumia 800] Preyer11:
like that, i will join you too
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
Thanks!!

Just joined group but haven't posted yet. I've had my Lumia a whopping 48 hours at this point and haven't had a chance to really wring out the camera yet.

Hope to rectify that this weekend.

Don't see what all the complaints are about. Has more settings than my HD7 did - and all the additions are useful (I love the exposure setting). Shutter response is identical to any smartphone camera I've had before.

As far as photo color - maybe I'm jaded, but I don't think ANY smartphone camera is all that great. The HD7 surprised me because being mediocre in almost all other respects, the camera was pretty good. To me, these cameras will never replace a decent 35mm; they're a step above a Kodak Instamatic or typical 35mm disposable in my opinion. I think it's pretty much mandatory with phone cameras to have something like PicturesLab or Thumba to tart up the pictures a bit and have them looking decent.

Cheers,
[Nokia Lumia 800] htc12345:
Maybe after altering a few settings like white balance, you can make it behave well. But out of the box at default settings the Lumia800 is not surprisingly good.

just a reminder of 4 years ago where the Nokia N95 could deliver images comparable to a reasonably good point and shoot camera
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
My first real photo on the Lumia.. no editing..
[Nokia Lumia 800] htc12345:
I did a test in ambient light this evening.

I have the following preliminary conclusions:

A. Picture quality seems okay looking at the results on the phone itself

B. Contrast and saturation settings together are so agressive that you need these set to default in order to get a decent picture

C. Yes, the red burn on photos is clearly there.

D. Auto white balance is a disaster as well as the manual settings. These are way too agressive too. If these would be applied at fifty percent would be much better.

picture of apollo15rover shows the agressive auto settings. Very high contrast as shades are very dark, the grass seems too dark green, and the bright is overburnt. that it is done by the camera settings..I recognize this too in my own photos taken with the lumia.
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
I agree with all.. but still pretty happy the way this turned out.. Clarity and detail aren't lacking. I took with Macro focus (had not discovered macro scene yet)

I did try to take a couple with one notch up on saturation and it might as well have been solarized!

On a positive note I found something that has not been on any smartphone I have had in the past: Macro Scene PLUS Macro Focus - so I can now take low depth of field shots!
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
Here's another unedited photo..

All settings normal/auto except I lowered Contrast and Saturation 1 notch to "Low" each.. To me it's a bit washed out, but more easy to correct in photo program than trying to go the other way..
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
Recently tried to shoot some lighter color subjects and now also noticing the red burn in the middle.. Anyone discover the trick of getting rid of it?

Edit.. Must be in the white balance. Doesn't appear on outdoor photos. Also, I re-shot the interior photo with the burn using flash, and the burn was completely eliminated. Not too happy being a fan of natural light photography..

[General Questions and Answers] Tamerz:
I successfully used HTC's site to unlock the bootloader. I also downloaded Fresh Evo 3d 4.0.6, renamed it to PG86IMG.zip then ran:

adb push PG86IMG.zip /sdcard/PG86IMG.zip

I boot it with volume down and power, it shows "*** UNLOCKED ***" and it goes through:

Loading...[PG86IMG.zip]

Parsing...[PG86IMG.zip]

Then I choose "RECOVERY", hit power, and it gives me the red triangle and I have to pull the battery.

So my questions....

1. Am I right just renaming the downloaded ZIP to PG86IMG.zip? I haven't found any instructions specific to Fresh Rom and followed this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1193101

2. Do I need to do more than just unlock the boot loader from HTC's site? I saw a lot of posts show you to root it, but they all seem like they were from before HTC would unlock it for you.

Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
No no, you do not rename a custom ROM PDxx.img. Put the zip file on your sd card and flash it through your recovery after doing a full wipe. The method you used is for installing an RUU (factory image).

But first, you need to root your phone and install a custom recovery. I would suggest ALOT of reading and research.
[General Questions and Answers] Tamerz:
OK, thanks for confirming I'm on the wrong path. I'll do some more research. Information is pretty scattered, I thought there would at least be a readme pointing down the path.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasubi:
Hey there all. I recently decided to flash my phone back to stock odex firmware via kies (JVT) and rooted it via superoneclick so I could remove useless apps with Titanium. I happened to delete the calendar sync process/function from the system and now im getting force closes from calendar. Obviously the calendar was working prior to this, so im assuming im needing to re-install the calendar to get it to work again, anybody know if this will work or will I need to flash again fresh? If its as simple as installing the Calendar.apk to make it work, anybody have it available for JVT (if version matters or not) ive googled for the .apk, but was not comfortable with installing anything without finding out first. That, and the fact the .apks I found I wasnt happy with them being correct.

Thanks for any help peeps :-)

[HTC Desire S] fasty:
OK, this is really bugging me.

(and yes, I know that there are similar topics elsewhere but none of them actually seem to help me resolve the problem)

Until recently, my weather application would automatically and correctly identify and show my nearest TOWN as the "current location". This also appeared on the homescreen.

Now, for some reason, it's persistently only giving me the COUNTRY as current location, i.e. United Kingdom in my case.

The only thing I've changed recently was to remove one or two of the cities that I wasn't interested in from the list, and added a couple of other ones.

I've tried disabling and re-enabling "use wireless networks" for location setting, and also I've ensured that background data and auto sync are both ON.

Google maps evidently knows where I am from the cellphone data, so apparently the locations data is being received from the cell towers. Presently using THREE as service provider.

Is there a way to reset the weather settings? I'm reluctant to manually clear all the data from the associated apps in case it completely breaks it, and I don't really want to factory reset.

Ideas, anyone ? Thanks.

- Steve
[HTC Desire S] Muru11:
my suggestion may be clear the weather data from applications find the weather app and clear all data!!

restart the app..might pick up ur town!!
[HTC Desire S] fasty:
Thanks Muru11.

Curiously though, a colleague's HTC phone (a Wildfire S) has started doing exactly the same thing. It just displays "United Kingdom" for weather.

He's on a different network too.

I'm wondering if the weather forecast provider or HTC have upset the database for our area. I'm going to sit back and wait for a while before taking any drastic measures!

- Steve
[HTC Desire S] fasty:
Update : A search through the HTC UK page on facebook suggests that this problem is affecting quite a few HTC UK users.

HTC proposed a solution to one person, which involved twiddling a lot of settings and apparently didn't work.

Hopefully the issue has been escalated.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Potato13:
Hey guys, I'm having trouble with choosing a phone. I actually bought the Galaxy s2 lte (skyrocket)but then i returned because I didn't love it and I felt like there was something better and the plan then was to wait for the galaxy nexus. But after that, I read that the galaxy nexus would be left in the dust once phones like the s2 and the newer htc phones get ics. Is this true? Also, If I want a galaxy nexus I have to wait until it's comes to rogers since only bell and virgin have it where I live. I also read that the normal s2 is pretty good too and will be getting ics pretty soon so that was another phone I wanted but rogers didn't have it, they only had the lte version of it. I've also looked at the htc evo 3d and lg optimus 3d but the phones suck and the only really good feature is 3d and and hdmi port in the optimus. The motorola razr also seemed like a nice phone but then i read some bad stuff about it's battery life and display and I heard about an upcoming droid razrmax which is rumored to be a new razr with better specifications and battery life. Help me decide which phone to buy please. :(

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Girevik:
Ok, the more reading I do the more confused I get.

I have a nook 1.3 that I bought for my son. The reason I chose the nook was because I could put the market on it and give him the games he's always playing on my phone. I'd LIKE to keep the stock reader as well because he's only 7 and I like the read to me feature on it as well. My first attempt to root was an abject failure, and now with 1.4 coming out I'm totally lost.

From my poking around here is some of what I gather:

Some of that I gather is:

The market doesn't work when you use the current root files on 1.4. Or does it? There doesn't seem to be a consensus

Some nooks with 1.3 get the boot loop when using the two "current" nooter files (that's what I experienced), but you can use the older file and just have an older market

At this point, I'd really like to know what my options are. Right now I'm sitting at 1.3, and may (or may not...I think I might have goofed the first root process up) have one of those nooks that hangs. My #1 priority is the market, and #2 (or maybe 1A) is keeping the reader. What are my options for this? Or do I just create a bootable SD card and give him a plain Android tablet until this all washes out?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
May I suggest you start from the beginning. Samualhalff here has a great utility to take you to pristine stock. Apply the 1.3 update and use your bootable uSD, install Gapps (latest) and go a step at a time.

I've had success with the above ending up in CM7 7.0.0.3. You'll always have the "reader" using Aldiko, B&N or whatever you choice is.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Girevik:
Ok, I guess it's time to display my ignorance.

First of all I think I AM at pristine stock, but what do I know? The nook came with 1.3 on it (just got it last week), and after my isues trying to root it the only way I was able to get it back working after beein stuck in the boot loop was with the "8 failed boots" method. My understanding that was akin to a factory reset so it was back to just like it was out of the box.

So that brings me to:

- I don't need to apply any updates to get it to 1.3, right?

- When you talk about my bootable uSD card, exactly what do you mean? The only thing I've created is the CockWorksRecoveryMod SD card to apply the ManualNooter files.

- I'm not sure what Gapps is (and I feel like I should)

- If I flash a rom, I understand I can download the B&N (or whatever) Android software, but I though the color stock reader (and only the out of the box reader) had the feature where it could actually read some books to you (a feature I think might be nice for a 7 year old)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
OK. Guess maybe I mis-read your post! My fault! :)

Personally I have never gotten the "hang" of 8 Failed Boots. I have just wiped /data and /system then loaded stock.

If you are at stock 1.3 (and unrooted and no CWM) you can verify in Settings if you wish but it sounds as if you are.

Format your uSD using this. Then follow these directions. This will give you a good format on your card and help you create a working bootable uSD.

I post this as I have seen many uSD card not formatted correctly (never use windows format or your device to format..often corrupts)

You can also load whatever ROM you wish to instalkl on the card but flash it only after you have rooted and installed CWM.

Gapps is Google Apps. Installs Market.

HTH!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Girevik:
I tried to load stock back, but it seems that ANYTHING I tried to do (including the root) resulted in a boot loop on the "nook color" screen. It seemed that nothing I tried to do did anything but make it loop until I found the faild boot trick. I was even getting an error just trying to wipe the data, which had me worried.

When you talk about loading a ROM on the card and "flashing" it, is that to replace the nook OS with the ROM? I don't think I want to do that now since I'd like to keep the stock reader.

Ideally I'd like to just root and get the Market, but after my first failed attempt, learning that 1.4 is on the horizon, and that some 1.3 nooks seem to get the nook boot loop when using ManualNooter, I'm a little gun shy. At this point I'm thinking I may want to wait until someone has a stable root process for 1.4.

Does the nook have to be rooted if I want to boot an OS from the SD card? I'm thnking that may be my best compromise at this point.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
Understand. Actually 1.4 is available right now for download from the Support section on BN site. If you wish, go ahead and get it, load it to the root of your NC, let it go to sleep and it will update automatically for you. (Directions on the BN site) If you wish to load CM7 for instance, you may wish to reload 1.3 for now as I don't see a 1.4 version yet.

Once that is done you will be at stock 1.4 (if you go that way). And yes, you can load your choice of ROM from the uSD. One of the really neat things about the NC is that it boots first to the uSD then to the internal. There are several choices in the Development section to choose from. Try out several and pick the one you like (I prefer CM myself) Keep in mind that booting from the uSD will not be as fast as if it was loaded to your internal but doing this will also keep your stock safe. And no, you need not be rooted to boot from uSD.

For example..... verygreen.

Let me know how it goes!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Girevik:
Ok, cool. So it sounds like my plan for now is to get 1.4 then boot off of an SD card. When and if we can root it successfully, I'll make that jump.

I asked this in another thread, but I'll do so hear as well. What happens to apps I download while booted from the card? Are they installed on the card or the nook internal memory? And if it's the nook memory, what happens when I boot to the nook?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
Golly. It's been so doggeone long since I ran anything off the uSD....if I remember right.....Ya know....I believe everything runs from the uSD. I would sideload the apks. Lemme think about that one. That was like Months before last Christmas lol
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koopakid08:
For what you want, I would just do a MN Root of the stock Nook software. Then you wouldn't have to deal with switching back and forth between CM and stock.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Girevik:
That's my long term goal. but is the root on 1.4 working yet? I tried to do the MN root (but may have missed a step) on 1.3 and got into a boot cycle. I was thinking I'd just let it upgrade then once all the 1.4 stuff was figured out do a root then
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
From what I've read the 1.4 doesn't have reliable root yet. So you have two choices really. Leave as is and wait (I'm betting root will come to 1.4 eventually) or wipe (system/data) back to 1.3, load and MN/AN.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koopakid08:
I'm not sure about the progress of a 1.4 root but I do know that 1.2 is very easy to root as you only have to flash one file.

So unless you really want the small added features of 1.4 I would just revert to 1.2 and stay there until a 1.4 root is finalized.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Girevik:
Can I revert to 1.2 if my nook came with 1.3 on it OOTB?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miss_october:
In doing this nooter on a 1.2 are you still able to have flash and the netflix app work? or do you have to have 1.3 or 1.4? I see 1.4 is bnn making netflix available, but im guessing if you root on a 1.3 you can gain access to the app? is it the same for 1.2? I have the netflix.apk file to sideload in either case. Just curious before I go wiping my nook and starting fresh (was gonna go with cm7 on a disk dual boot with 1.4) or go to 1.3 and manual nooter
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
Sure can. I ran Netflix on 1.3 (and I'm thinking 1.2 also) but I believe due to a small glitch one needed to modify the build.prop file. Very easy to do really And it works! The posts should still be in the forum. Search Netflix. That should get you what you need.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobstro:
Girevik, we exchanged messages on this topic in another thread. I wanted to let you know I've had some success with rooting 1.4.1 to the point that it might be suitable for what you want. See message 92 in this thread.

In short: You can sideload apps and run them in the B&N Walled Garden. You can't download or refresh apps, but you can work with sideloaded books and apps. It's not 100% stable yet, but I think with careful selection of sideloaded apps, it may be.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koopakid08:
Yes, you just need to flash the 1.2 zip

---------------------------------
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koopakid08:
Yes both will work on 1.2 and 1.3

---------------------------------
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Girevik:
I think I saw that. I'll take a closer look, but to be honest right now I think my son will be be more likely to use the the straight Android boot to have access to the games he's always playing on my phone. I'm hoping that will change, but as this point I'm thinking I'm better off waiting until I can get the Market and Amazon Appstore on 1.4 and just getting the stuff he's used to playing with. I'd really like him to use the BN reader, but realistically I don't know how much he'd use that right now.

Frankly, it comes down to me not really wanting to go through the effort of sideloading the games he plays. I'd really just like to get it connected to the Market and Appstore and downaod the stuff he uses.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worldindo1:
If I were you, I'd create a CWR bootable and flash CM7 or one of the other many available ROMs (possibly MIUI, I heard it's pretty top notch, somewhat akin to the layout of iOS). I find the NC's OS somewhat distasteful. I believe Dalingrin once said that he knew the NC better than its creators. Anyways, personal bias coming into account, I flashed CM7.1 and never looked back. It's completely up to you. If you do choose to take my advice, there are alot of good devs who can help you out with the process. Dalingrin and Fattire are 2 of my favorite devs.

I used to have a forum signature... then I took an arrow to the knee.
