[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
Hmm. Wish I had the luxury of installing ICZ just to find out if that camera doesn't have the problem or if this is a problem with my phone somehow, or how I'm restoring apps badly. I'm otherwise happy with Slim so I'm reluctant to install a new ROM since I just put this one on a couple of days ago.

If nobody else chimes in I'll try ICZ this weekend.

btw, the problem can also be shown by just panning the phone and taking a picture during the pan. If you end up with something recognizable in the review image you may find that the final image doesn't match.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mostdef:
Here some sample of picture I took with ICZenwich, Just basic setting.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
mostdef, I think you've misunderstood the problem. None of those images show motion. With the subject standing still you'd never see the problem I'm describing. It's when the subjects are in motion or the camera is in motion (panning) that you may see the issue.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illego:
I've also seen it on Slim and Zen.

Looks like the actual picture is taken a sec after the camera display actually clicks and show you the preview. The trick is to remain still after the camera says its taken the picture. You get a picture that is a sec after the phone assume you take it. However, if you move the phone right after the camera clicks, then the picture is ruined. Same thing as if you take a picture as your arm is moving.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
I'm glad it's not just me or my phone but that's messed up.

The biggest issue is that the review picture the camera shows is not what you end up with. There's no point in having the review image show up after a picture is taken if it's going to be wrong.

It doesn't matter how still you hold the camera if what you're taking the picture of is in motion.

I can't believe more people aren't talking about this
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mostdef:
Are you talking about moving the camera around that look like it jerky on motion or are you talking about moving object?

Hi,

have just rooted my asus TF101 on ICS and have happily got CIFS running (yay) I have mounted an HDD plugged into the usb port of my wifi router but the mp3 files on it are about 5 subdirectories deep so even if I mount the device as /sdcard/Music it don't wanna scan it for music :(

somewhere the device is configured to use /sdcard/Music as one of the music locations. Where might I find the config file so I can add another location to scan for MP3?

Cheers me'dears!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakis39:
Hi everyone,

I have my Atrix unlocked, rooted, etc etc.

I realize that my Motorola warranty was voided a long time ago, but I'm still paying $7 a month to Bell for their smartphone replacement plan.

http://www.bell.ca/Mobility/Promotions/SmartPhone_Care_warranty_plans

I'm so sick of paying so much for this garbage, but they've still got me scared I'll break my phone one day and not have an alternative without their stupid plan.

If something happens to my phone and they see the "Unlocked" on my boot screen or something like that , would they not honour their replacement plan?

Does anyone have any experience with Bell and this SPC plan?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
You haven't voided your Motorola warranty for sure by unlocking. When you unlocked it said "MAY" void your warranty.

As for your replacement plan, I haven't heard of anyone yet with any service provider being denied a replacement/warranty service because of an unlocked bootloader.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakis39:
Thanks for your quick reply. That's reassuring. But it means I still have reason to cough up $7/month ... :mad:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
I feel your pain. I have 5 phones on my plan with AT&T, so I am paying a wee bit more! LOL
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevyh:
plan seems to work

My Atrix just started having the problem with the touch screen freaking out (Google it). Anyhow, I called and was offered a choice of 2 replacement phones:

Samsung Galaxy S2

HTC Raider LTE

They didn't ask for any information regarding the serviceability of my present phone. I was fine sticking with the Atrix but will enjoy a bit of an upgrade to the S2 especially since it should get ICS by June and the Atrix definitely will not be upgraded.

With the S2 HD launching in a week, I would sure like to get that one...not so much for the LTE but rather the increase in screen size and resolution.

I wonder if I can take the unused replacement S2 to a Bell store and switch for the S2 HD as they are looking to be at the same price point...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakis39:
That's actually really awesome! It's a good thing I'm still paying for this stupid plan.

Maybe there's a way I can intentionally bust my Atrix. It would be sad to see it go (especially since I have 2 docks for it), but I just want a phone with functioning ICS...

Most likely not. I just have a feeling.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Random Canadian:
you could always just take the sim out and call them and say you lost it...

I think the $7 plan covers loses for $50?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakis39:
Wow... I never thought about that. The website says it does cover loss or theft (but for $150).

Their Terms and Conditions document link leads to a 404 right now though, so I can't really triple-check...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NishantM:
Just bought a new Defy+ last month and today suddenly a dead/stuck pixel has popped up on the screen :(:(. It's just one single pixel. Tried some apps available in market, didn't fix it.

Will this be covered in warranty in India?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luciferps:
sure bro it will be covered..show them the case and i hope they replace the phone.. be kind to them at first but if they don't ... bump them up lol
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CjRudi:
i don't know how it's managed in India, but there are some rules about LCD screens which tell how many dead pixels are acceptable on some surface. You should first get to know about the rules before sending your phone to the OP, because if there are some, you just lose time waiting for your phone without having it fixed...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NishantM:
Thanks. I've emailed this query to Motorola India. Hope their reply would be positive.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
I'm a modem flashaholic but am getting ready to switch to a Kernel without CWM. I've got all my modems in Zips and never have any problem flashing them.

In preparation for my switch I downloaded all the E4GT modems in TAR files. I then bought Mobile Odin. I ran a test flash to make sure I had it working correctly. Here's the steps I took (just in case it matters):

1) Load Mobile Odin.

2) Select Open File

3) Navigate to proper TAR file and select it (I've tried it from internal and SD Card, both load into the Modem slot on Mobile Odin correctly).

4) Select Flash firmware.

5) After selecting Flash firmware I acknowledge the "this is dangerous" message and select verify for the the MD5 option.

6) Phone restarts, I see the Mobile Odin splash screen.

After the restart I go to system settings and look at the Baseband/Modem and it still displays the last modem I flashed through CWM.

Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

English translation from the guy that cannot write according to the forum rules and must be year one at skool .

Your Product Code is under the battery .

Its worth repeating methods of updating .

One official via Kies when an update is available only .Providing your phone presents the correct hidswver codes to match a firmware on the Kies server .

Two join XDA Developers forum and download stock firmware as soon as its released .

As oft repeated mix and match may not work and its rather pointless choose your path for up grades and stick with that method .Probably more time wasted trying to go back to Kies from stock than any other .

Ok so I don't know where else to ask I need help, for some reason after I updated to the latest ICS, I can no longer tether my phone to my computer via usb, Bluetooth, or wifi as a hotspot. I have tried different computers and devices that use wifi and Bluetooth nothing works. So I thought maybe if I reverted back to the original firmware I could get it to work.

Have you updated your phone with official ICS firmware through ODIN? Have you checked the drivers are properly installed? I updated my phone having Saudi Arabia gingerbread firmware with ICS India firmware recently..... after seeing your post I checked the USB tethering, it is working fine......below 2 drivers were installed when I started tethering:

1. Samsung Mobile USB composite device

2. Samsung Mobile USB Remote NDIS Network Device

Also, I had same problem with KIES not recognizing my phone, but it was resolved itself after I did a wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache (you need to take backup of your data before you do this, as it will wipe all user data like contacts, messages, applications, photo, video etc).

-http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#getApplicationInfo()

I haven't thought through the problem just yet, but its seems to be doable. If you don't find an app soon, I will start working on a script that does it and, if successful, a proper, free software app. I am hoping the available methods won't require something as stupid as launching each app fully. But again, I haven't thought it through. Thanks for the idea btw.

EDIT:

Made a little more effort

https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups#!topic/android-developers/dXLACRIizKc

I will work on something this weekend and get back with y'all.

EDIT 2:

So it looks like I would need maxSdkVersion which I don't find in the API. Furthermore, it is strongly suggested that one not use maxSdkVersion when building an app so that doesn't sound all that useful. I have received another, much more complicated suggestion that may do what I want, but I will have to look hard at it. Looks like I'm going nowhere in my effort. Always open to suggestions. More to come later this weekend.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exiquio:
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I thought this was mostly a straightforward task using the API's exposure to AndroidManifest.xml. As per my previously posted link to an Android Developers discussion on the topic, my approach is dead in the water as far as I can see. I did try to find an answer though to the best of my limited ability. If anyone has or ever solves this problem (I consider it a problem) I would hope they find the this thread.

Thanks for the learning experience. I give up.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
Most older apps will work fine on ICS, its pretty backwards compatible. If the app uses legacy menus the button will appear in the old lower left hand corner location instead of the upper right hand corner like apps written for ICS.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Randi:
i'm no dev so bear with me if i write stupid stuff :-)

one likely but not very promising sounding way might be to use android:targetSdkVersion as "As Android evolves with each new version, some behaviors and even appearances might change. However, if the API level of the platform is higher than the version declared by your app's targetSdkVersion, the system may enable compatibility behaviors to ensure that your app continues to work the way you expect. You can disable such compatibility behaviors by specifying targetSdkVersion to match the API level of the platform on which it's running. For example, setting this value to "11" or higher allows the system to apply a new default theme (Holo) to your app when running on Android 3.0 or higher and also disables screen compatibility mode when running on larger screens (because support for API level 11 implicitly supports larger screens)."

question though is how many apps actually use this?

However after having read this re android:maxSdkVersion "Warning: Declaring this attribute is not recommended. First, there is no need to set the attribute as means of blocking deployment of your application onto new versions of the Android platform as they are released. By design, new versions of the platform are fully backward-compatible. Your application should work properly on new versions, provided it uses only standard APIs and follows development best practices. Second, note that in some cases, declaring the attribute can result in your application being removed from users' devices after a system update to a higher API Level. Most devices on which your application is likely to be installed will receive periodic system updates over the air, so you should consider their effect on your application before setting this attribute." (taking from here) i now don't know how important my op is, but then why do all app devs release new versions "fixing things" for ICS?

One pretty significant example which actually currently will prevent my phone from getting ICS for now is that the subsonic app in the current version produces stuttering when playing audio while downloading (problem description here).

Isn't there any way to instead of searching the phone searching google play/android market instead?
