I wonder if they choose to use a smaller sensor to keep the camera so fast. Maybe the larger sensors weren't performing as well speed wise. But I agree others, it isn't the best out there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radiohead14:
bummer. the camera is one of the main deciding factors for me. i'll be upgrading from a Dinc, and while it served me well the past two years, I really would like to upgrade to a better phone cam, since the Dinc's cam is terrible at low light situations and can overexpose at outdoors. the flash on it is terrible also, being overly bright, which just washes out the photo. do i have another option in verizon, or is the iphone 4s my only other option? my upgrade is due now by the way. thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tsekh501:
MP is just the size of the photos. How good a camera is has a lot more to do with just the MP count. However, MP count does play an important role in phone photography. 99% of the phone camera lenses have no optical zoom. All the "zoom" are digital zoom, which just means cropping and enlarging the original picture. In this case, all else equal, the higher the MP, the better the "zoomed" result. Moreover, and very unfortunately, MP count aside, the lens and the sensor on the Galaxy Nexus are pretty poor.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwakshot:
The camera isn't amazing, but I would definitely not suggest anything but the GNex since it's all round just a perfect phone, you'll regret not getting it IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staticx57:
If I were you on verizon I would get the Rezound. It has a really nice camera compared to the Gnex and it also has a 1280x720 screen and even a more powerful GPU (but not CPU). I had it before I switched it for my gnex but I can't stand not having an AMOLED screen otherwise id still have that phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radiohead14:
yea i was trying out that phone in store. it's a bit of a brick though, and i wasn't impressed with the screen as well. any other ones coming out soon that i should wait for? will verizon get the galaxy S3?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] weedahoe:
Im impressed with the GNex cam. I do a lot of custom paint and mostly metallics so i like to take very close pics and they always come out great
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GertBFrobe:
Used P3's 1-click to get back on the upgrade path and take my phone to 901 and lost root. I was rooted prior with forever root applied. The script appeared to run fine and 901 was applied with the phone running okay ... except root is no longer there. Titanium ran okay prior. All other things about the phone work great ... 4G does appear to be a bit more responsive.

One thing of note was that during the script when zergRush was being applied I remember seeing a "Hellions with BLUE flame" popped up in the script.

Any help will be appreciated.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Mine did the same thing. Are you sure you were rooted before with forever root? And are you sure you dont have super user?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GertBFrobe:
I definitely had root prior to the 1-click ... I have been running Titanium Backup for a few months now. And yes, I still have SuperUser on my phone.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cappiez:
If you go to P3s post at MDW, realbbb has a download on page 4 that works perfectly. I simply ran his script straight over the results ofP3's script and had no issues whatsoever.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GertBFrobe:
Were you on 901 when you reran the bbb script over the top of p3's? I'm assuming "reran over the top" means no additional pushes, etc., just used the bbb batch file instead.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cellzealot:
Yes realbbb's fixed script will work if run again over the BionicPathSaver. Be sure you have unzipped his BPS fix.zip into the same directory and use the runmebbb.bat file.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GertBFrobe:
Thanks CZ.

Strange thing happening now. When the bbb batch tries to push the first files over to the sd I'm getting an "error:device not found".

I've got the latest Moto drivers installed. Even uninstalled and reinstalled. Using USB cable that was shipped with the phone. USB debug is definitley on. Phone is definitely set to charge only.The device was recognized before when I did the P3 1-click.

Win7-64 bit recognizes the phone and the sd-ext card when I change to mass storage. I've tried to manually push files and same error.

adb shell command works. cd /data/local works along with the ls command of what's in those directories. Just won't allow a push.

EDIT: Well, I dusted off the old stone knives and bear skins and loaded up XP from the dual boot. Put the Moto drivers on there and Bam, I'm in. Guess my Win 7 64 bit has some old Moto driver bits floating around somewhere ... or perhaps just a bit of preanimate matter caught in the matrix. Either way ... 901 update has a few more minutes on its install. Thanks again.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] the_kwa:
i'll be giving this a try.

i used the 1click upgrade path (which don't get me wrong is AMAZING!) but i'm really, really surprised that there's no warning of loosing root access.

5.9.901 does seem to have fixed ALOT for me though and i know i'll have root again soon...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ROB281:
anyone using the one click coming from a version of 5.7.893 without the webtop?

I've seen posts of people without the webtop getting stuck in bootloops
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tbell6:
Worked for me and restored Web top.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cappiez:
I rebooted the phone when I got the error:device not found, and head no troubles afterwards.

I bootlooped when coming from 5.7.893 with no webtop. I flashed back with released & forever root. Then, BPS. Lost root at that put.

So, if you have 5.7.893 flash back to 5.5.893, then do realbbb's BPS fix and you should be good.
[Motorola Atrix 2] pilboyz:
do you guys know where to buy replacement parts for A2? i just deformed my earpiece speaker grill and i badly need one. :confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Atrixed2:
is it the speaker grill that is messed up? or the whole upper part of the phone?
[Motorola Atrix 2] pilboyz:
Just the speaker grill. I my have bumped it into something
[Motorola Atrix 2] Atrixed2:
It might be hard to open up the case but i bet once you remove to top cover you can repair the grill easily. I know my post is little useless hehehe because theres no aftermarket parts yet. Do you have insurance or can you return the phone for a replacement?
[Motorola Atrix 2] pilboyz:
I dont have insurance. Have you tried opening yours? Or tried a teardown maybe? Im still afraid of opening it. Whew! A2 is not getting some love on the market. I hope they sell oem replacemnt parts soon
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Just call 611 add the insurance, it is 4.99 a month. Then wait like 1-2 weeks, and go into a store and tell them you dropped it, and that happened and you would like to make an insurance claim. I think it is like 20-40 dollars for a insurance claim.

Or get the insurance and then "accidentally" drop it in the toilet. Then go get your insurance exchange (again 20-40 dollars), I have done that one before, when I toasted a phone a year or so ago, and I could not get it to boot. The store said I would have get a warranty exchange, but when I called the warranty number they said no, so I did that. I have had insurance on every phone I have ever had at att it is well worth the cost.

The microwave works well for a warranty (not insurance) exchange, only 2-5 seconds will kill it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ipkryss:
Hi guys,

I believe that the NFC chip in my device (battery) is broken. I have tried two different NFC reader applications and swiped my library card, my RFID keyring for work and my gym card with no success. I turned NFC off and on, rebooted the phone, nothing.

Is there anything else I can do to troubleshoot the NFC chip? I want to make sure its a hardware fault before I turn it in.

I have unlocked the bootloader and rooted via superboot, and it's been flashed with yakju 4.0.2 from googles website.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Does NFC enable in settings? Capture a logcat when enabling.

Are you sure that the tags you are scanning operate on the correct frequency (13.56 Mhz)? If so capture a logcat when you try to scan the tags. Capture a logcat when trying to read a tag.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zonbal33:
I know this might sound stupid but I'm being serious. Can someone actually explain to me what NFC is, how GNEX can use it and what can be done now with it? I just need it simple terms, searching it online just drove me crazy.

Thanks, appreciate the help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ipkryss:
Thank you for helping. Yes, NFC seems to startup alright according to logcat, no error messages or warnings when I do this. I also see messages "NFC-EE routing ON" and "NFC-C polling ON". The log is too long to post it for you.

I also tried logcat during scan but it didnt notice anything.

No, I am not sure that my tags are operating at 13.56 Mhz... Perhaps they arent. Have to look this up!

Somebody in Sweden knows anything I could test my NFC against?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ipkryss:
NFC is for Near-Field Communication and is a wireless communication standard that only operates at a very short instance, eg. 1-4 cm. It can be used as a replacement for regular debit cards so instead of using your card when you go to the shop you just swipe your mobile phone against the shops sensors and enter your pin code to pay. It can also be used to perform a secure handshake, for example if I come to a friends house and I want to access his WiFi, I'll just swipe my phone close to his Wifi Router and they will pair and share the network encryption key. The security in this is that no unauthorized person should be able to get within 1-4 cm of the router to get the encryption key - and NFC simply does not operate at longer ranges then this. These are a couple of things I know are coming with the NFC technology, there's probably alot more stuff we can do with this. Oh btw, we got the Android Beam aswell!

do you have an extended non Samsung battery or just a non Samsung battery? Or is your battery exterior damaged in any way?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixFx:
I am running a beta build of ICS on my Samsung Galaxy S, and flash it every few weeks as and when better builds come out. Like most of you might know, ICS supports high resolution contact photos but Google contacts (online) doesn’t. Therefore every time I flash, I lose all my locally stored high res contact photos.

Is there an app that allows me to sync contact photos from my hard disk or a folder on the phone ? I know there are few apps that allow facebook photo synching, but I’m not big fan of facebook , and I have many contacts who do not have facebook accounts or not in my friend circles. EDIT: same goes for Google+ and whatever popular social media networks out there. So I prefer to do it from a local storage. Any one know of something like that ?

[HTC EVO 3D] Dez305:
My Evo 3D's is dead Wont turn on, if you plug it into the comuter it keeps connecting and disconnecting. Red light comes on for a few seconds when plugged into the charger. Eariler my In law plugged it into this program called "mobilego" tryin to root it for Metro PCS and now it wont cut on anymore. tried removing the battery nothing works...HELP!
[HTC EVO 3D] ali87va:
How was the battery level? Why would he try to root it with for metro pcs? Explain more and I'll see what I or other members can do.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dez305:
Everything was working fine...i know the battery is completely dead but like i said when i plug it in the charger the red light comes on for about 5 seconds then it goes off and wont come on again. He was gonna put a ROM on it and root it but i have to get it flashed to the metro network. He put it on mobilego i guess to backup my info but he had it on other programs, told me i needed it flashed first then gave it back to me.its been on the charger for about 2 hrs now and no charge still
[HTC EVO 3D] Threevo:
Maybe he bricked it?
[HTC EVO 3D] Cetus Corr:
Did it boot yet? For me, if the battery dies, I have to pull it out, put it back and let it charge for at least 10 minutes before it starts up again.

Comcastrated
[HTC EVO 3D] Dez305:
Pulled the battery out, kept the battery out basically anything batterywise i did and nothin but the red light comes on for a few seconds still
[HTC EVO 3D] neopolotin75:
Pull battery for a few put back in then charge it on a wall charger while its still off for 30mins...Mobilego is sync software so unless he actually went through the process of going into recovery etc etc then chances are its the battery
[HTC EVO 3D] megabiteg:
I would like to know if you can access recovery with the phone without a battery but with the charger on.

To access the boot menu, make sure the phone is off and press pwr + vol down. If you can access the recovery menu then there is still hope.
[HTC EVO 3D] charliee604:
press the camera button + power button.
[HTC EVO 3D] hitman4274:
Sounds like battery issues... The phone thinks the battery is dead... Pull the battery out and leave it for about 20 mins or so, throw it back in, don't power it up and plug it in, let it sit for awhile(red led should stay lit) after like 20 mins turn it on

[HTC EVO 3D] Dez305:
the batttery is dead....so im hoping its just a battery issue, if its the battery i will buy another if not...off to htc it goes!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Bebida:
Had the same issue try plugging it into the charger for a couple mins remove the battery replace the battery plug it back in and repeat 6-7 times then hold power and volume buttons. If not leave the battery out for like an hour then try the first step. I know it sounds stupid but it worked for me. Hope it helps.

What ROMs do you guys want? I ported MIUI to epic and am working on other stuff there. I can probably port MIUI ICS when we get CM9. What do you guys want though? HTC's Tablet Sense?

EDIT: I have the WiFi version btw, so if anyone wants carrier specific versions of ROMs, tell me what to change or just take my WiFi Roms and add support for your carrier.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] GazaIan:
No idea, i would love a source built ICS ROM but I hear CM9 is on the horizon and to my knowledge no Tegra 2 device has a GPU accelerated ICS ROM????

Just had to bump the thread and throw some words in.. :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xboxfanj:
I can't quite build from source yet. Don't have the skills or the computer requirements (if my pc tried to build ics, it'd probably take days, weeks, months, or even years). I have a netbook and ics takes several hours to build with 16gb of ram so I can't imagine it with only 1 gb.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xboxfanj:
Any cool roms or uis that you guys want me to port?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nickwarn:
Surprise us. i use Miui and absolutly love it but i have a hard time picturing it on my 10 inch tab but give it a go.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nightmarebadger:
Don't really know that much about different roms, I've only used CM7 and some smaller ROMs really :).

Never used MIUI, but I heard it's nice, so that would be an option.

But personally, I believe people would really appreciate if you have the knowledge/skill to help on CM9 for our tab somehow ^^

And of course, thanks for your work!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xboxfanj:
Sorry but I don't have the skill or knowledge for cm9, but we're in good hands: pershoot and cyanogen (you know, the guy who started cyanogenmod and the namesake of it). We'll have good builds soon, but apparently theres a non technical issue for all tegra 2 devices.

I can do miui once we get a good cm9 build and I will, but I need for other tablets to be supported because otherwise the resolution will be qhd at best. Either that or I need to find a way to make things support our resolution.

Edit: do you guys want an HTC sense tablet UI port?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] GazaIan:
I'd sure as hell love one!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] GazaIan:
Wait, you meant an actual Sense ROM? Oh there's most likely no way in hell you'll pull that off, that's like 95% impossible. If you actually manage to pull it off though, I'll be amazed. No HTC device has the Galaxy Tab resolution, chip set, GPU, CPU, so some hard care porting is needed. Still, I'll be super impressed if you could get a Sense ROM booting, even if almost nothing worked.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xboxfanj:
Well most of those issues haven't stopped the galaxy s and nexus s/ns4g from getting sense roms. What other option besides a rom is there?

The MIUI port will be a little a way. I am going to wait until another tablet/device with the same resolution as us gets it so that we don't have a crappy resolution and also so that I don't have to manually make files higher res.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] PHenn:
port from what?

If you can take another ROM honestly, I'd like a CM7 ROM. There is nothing about Honeycomb that I think is significantly better than Gingerbread especially with the CM7 features.

Or does it have to be another Tablet ROM like something from the Motorola Xoom or Acer Iconia?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BroBot175:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
Read around, there is no full root method for phones with with hboot version. You can root, but you won't be able to flash ROM with custom kernels unless you jump threw some hoops via fastboot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncfastls1:
I got mine like a week ago and it had hboot 1.5. Like others have said there is no full custom root method, you have to use HTC's unlock tool which requires you to use some adb but it walks you through it. Basically once you get a recovery installed you can flash roms like normal, but kernels are a different story because the boot partition where it is stored is still locked. But its actually not that hard to flash them. Download the flash image GUI app and it can either extract kernel files from a ROM zip and flash that or pick a kernel zip and flash that directly. It clears cache and dalvik for you and must reboot immediately.
