I'm looking for an app similar to screenshots but for video for instructional videos and such that will record what I'm doing on screen. any help would be awesome
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Hmm.. hope you get a good reply, it'd be interesting to try out! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] robertg9:
I did a google search and found this app....haven't tried it though

http://www.android-markets-info.com/helpful-tools/android-screen-video-capture

I also see one in Google Market...but says it doesnt work with Tegra 3...I'd watch that cause eventually he will update it for Tegra 3

There is an app called "MyMobiler"...He just did an Android update, but the Prime needs to be rooted (and I am not). It will put the Prime screen on your computer monitor, and you can control it with your mouse....and anything you can do on the prime (including copy/paste, etc) can be done from the computer....With that, you could use your computer capture app to capture that portion of the screen. I used to use it with my Win 6.5 phone and took some videos with it. Hopefully the anroid version will work.

The website for that is:

Good luck

I read reviews that says the Galaxy Nexus camera is worse compared to s2 and the details of the picture taken is lesser compared to GS2 and also the video How true is that? I mean does the GN's camera can't compete w/ the gs2's camera and there difference in quality is really huge?

So does this issue can be fixed by only an OS update w/ camera improvements? or really this issue is really on the hardware and can't be fixed w/ os update?

If you can also can you please post picture taken by your galaxy nexus's camera? thank you:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] utcu:
There are plenty of picture threads on here if you'd like to browse in the general forum, but I'll try to post a pic for you in a few. As far as quality I find the camera pretty impressive compared to my old droid bionic camera. Yes it's a lower mp but at the same time it's a matter of lens quality that really makes the difference. As for what you were saying about the upgraded os and whatnot, there is a thread in the development forums for the Gnex toolkit by mskips. He's compiled a modified "media_profiles.xml" file. That xml controls the cameras properties on the phone. He has them changed to improve video, audio, and picture quality. I've noticed a pretty decent improvement over the stock settings especially in video recording. Hope that helps you out a bit.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T4rd:
Wow, those are some great pics. Could you be so kind as to provide a link to said file?

Thanks :).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Yes the camera is not as good as the SGSII, but very few cameras are. The camera is not terrible, people just like to complain about things because they're terrible photographers lol.

There are tons of threads on photography with the GNex, you should see them. Here are a couple of mine:

I could go on for pages... As you can see the camera is completely capable of taking good shots.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
The latest update greatly improved the camera. All the original reviews used the crappy camera software during first release. I'd look at newer pic threads.

Do you Wash your hands and clean ur nails from time to time? xD.... Hope you dont own a restaurant... Haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnnyaqwer:
Maybe It depends on the skill?

I can't do like this, and all the quality of photo took by my GN is so terrible...

I think that maybe is caused by the camera, because my Sony X10i doesn't have this problem.

So what do you think? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Agreed. Some devices simply are more forgivable in this department.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] utcu:
​

Lol. I wash them about 20 times a day. I'm an automotive technician though so they get pretty dirty throughout the day. Oil, grease, dirt, all the fun stuff I get paid to play in. haha :D

As far as the cameras quality being a skill issue... It is not necessarily a skill issue on the user's part, but at the same time a dslr camera's auto settings, and other settings allow for a lot more error on the user's part. My pictures from my d40 will always look cleaner than my gnex. This falls back to lens quality as well. My nicer lenses were more expensive than my phone by far and there's a reason high end lenses cost so much. Using cell phones to take pictures doesn't require any special talents but knowing what conditions will help you produce better quality photos can help a lot. Having the right lighting alone can make a huge difference. Also you need to remember it is a phone and not a camera. Yes it has a camera, but it's main purpose and intent is to be a communications device which it does well. lol. I also feel that for a phone it has a more than adequate camera. It's not the best on the market, but I got this phone for development purposes and my love of android software. As for pictures I've got my old minolta 35mm and my Nikon DSLR. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexicon:
I will never understand why people say the s2 has a better camera. I had the s2 before the GN and I hated the camera tit would always take a picture I millisecond too short when focusing causing blurry photos. Hated that damn camera. I'm very happy with this. I truly believe anything over 5mp on a phone is pure overkill is just a game of who has the greater Number. All of this only differs if they actually put a damn great sensor of course but I'm loving my nexus camera. Oh and I loved the nexus one camera too. That was sharp and so reliable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] utcu:
You are exactly right about the >5mp being overkill for a phone. Mp has nothing to do with photo quality when taken it is mainly a unit used to measure the depth of the image and how large you can increase it before you see pixels. I've never taken a picture with my phone that I've wanted to blow up bigger than 3x5 at the most. lol.
[Acer Iconia A500] Stuart.upton666:
Hey guys, I recently got an A200 and managed to brick it. I'm having trouble getting the stock A200 firmware to work on the device. I have rooted it and have got cwm working but whenever I flash the stock rom it fails. Now, are there any A500 roms that will work on my device? I've read that the hardware isn't much different and that a simple port should work. Will it? If so please help as I've now got a £300 paperweight.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ntothes:
Does anyone else have problems with the screen not turning off when on a phone call? Mine doesn't turn off unless I directly cover the proximity sensor with my fingertip. I believe it has been this way the whole time I've had the phone, but maybe it's been worse since I went to ICS. I'm on Dark Raider right now.

I have been turning off the screen when in a call, but it would be nice if the sensor just worked. Is there any calibration tool available for the vivid? Or is this probably a busted sensor? My fiance's vivid also does the same thing.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] MauiKeitai:
I get the opposite. The screen turns off when put on my ear but doesn't come back when taken away from ear. Very annoying when you're dealing with an automated teller. Anybody know know anything?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Choanita:
Did you find a solution for the proximity sensor? My screen stays one while calling.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Thee Flash:
I just recently installed this ROM and I absolutely love it but the only problem I have with it is that it does not come with the Memo app. I used TB to install it from a backup I did from shostock2 but whenever I use the lock feature it force closes. I have tried searching but to no avail hence this post. Thanks for the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trell959:
It's for touchwiz based roms and AOKP isn't touchwiz. So therefore it will not run. I'm sure there are plenty of 3rd party apps that will replace it :)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] tonyny13:
So my local micro center store have the Acer A100 refurbished for 199.99 I got to score a clearance one for 160$(180$) with taxes. I bought it cuz I want to use it as my music/video player in my car only problem battery doesn't seem to last more than 4 hours :/ and it can't be charge with the USB cable :( . I'm thinking if I should return it for the galaxy tablet 2 7inch which is 249.99 or get the the A200 which is 279.99$ . Any recommendations guys also does any of you know of a good car stands??I have seen some on eBay for about 60$ seems to be too much for a bracket .
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Swyzzlestickz:
Wow!

I would like to say that I am on a similar path right now with the choice between what to do with me money and tablet. I got one for 199.99 here in Chicago, I was strongly debating which one I wanted to go with. My reasons are similar yo yours aswell and I am also wondering about the Car docks or stands. As far as specs go with one already running ICS which was a big draw for me. The only thing that differs from me and you is I want to use the tab for signing contracts from photography work. I am hoping that the S-pen will work with either of them. Or ill have to bite the bullet and go with a HTC View/Flyer for the pen support. I personally would exchange the unit seeing as how you are getting 4 hours of usage out of it and then wait for the ICS on the 27th and make a decision from there. If you have and suggestions on a tablet under 300 that will allow for signing with a stylus(spen/fujitsu?/N-trig) please throw the name out there
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] opto88:
Maybe this will help

I was also unhappy with having only 3-4 hours of battery life but I followed another board's explanation on how to make/use battery power packs. I now get about 12-20 hours of normal usage with my setup which is a 4800 ah 12v Li-on battery + an Acer a100 adapter wire and plug. The whole deal only cost about $28.

Now I love my little tablet!!:)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] CMeys:
Can you please link to that other board's explanation.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] aznmode:
In my opinion if you're gonna be using it mostly for signing I hear lots of good stuff about the HTC flyer or View. It's still running HC and will probably will never see ICS but you cant beat the stylus and screen. They work well together. Also that can be charged via micro usb. Longer battery. The single core is powerful enough for what you'll be doing with it.

The sammy is good too but too much proprietary connectors going on with it. But at 249 you get the latest stuff. It's probably a good idea to check out one for yourself. Unless someone can chime in. I've never seen or played with it myself.

As far as Acer goes, it does sometimes suffer from touch screen losing touch with either finger or capacitive stylus if its just sitting on a table. But there is a fix for it in HC but I'm sure youre gonna want to upgrade to ICS eventually when it comes out. For the most part ICS eliminates the issue but I still can see it from time to time. To eliminate the issue completely you have to hold the tablet with 1 hand so its grounded while you touch the screen with your other finger or stylus. Also when its plugged into the charger it doesnt have the issue.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] opto88:
Power Pack

Happy to .It is post #22 by st23r on the Forum "External battery for A100".

He cut the cord but it is not necessary if you purchase the following on Ebay under "Car DC Adapter For ACER ICONIA TAB A100 Tablet PC Auto Power Supply Cord PSU P/S"

Make sure you ask for the extension cord ONLY. It will be $4.99

Get a Li-On battery here: Ebay "Power Pack 12V Li-On battery 4800 ah"

It will cost $23.74 delivered (USA). Both parts fit together without adapters or cord cutting.

Hope it works as well for you as me.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] CMeys:
Thank you. I saw that post but was confused about the cutting cord part.

In the first eBay item, I don't see an option to get just the extension cord -- do you need to specifically ask the seller for it?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] opto88:
A100 extension cord

Yes, you need to contact the seller. The one I used was 'utopiadreamglobal' but I'm pretty sure any of them would do it.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Swyzzlestickz:
I returned the Acer tab. I shouldn't have to go through the rings to get good tablet life for a refurbished device and that extra 28 dollars almost put me in the same range as the Samsung device. I am somewhat happy with the SGT2 with the exclusion of root and crappy tablet touch wiz like deal going on. I got 16 hours of use the first day with it being out of the box no charge. I love the HTC flyer/view but here in Chicago those things cost the same as a new SGT2. I guess ill hit the CL for other states close by and see what I can find.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] DrSadistic:
Battery life shouldn't matter if you get the car adapter and just use it in the car.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deviatorz:
I have a few questions about fast charging. You can explain using chemistry/physics jargon if you wish as I do understand some parts. So to my understanding, fast charging is basically allowing from electrons to be pushed into the battery (or onto the lithium to convert them to ions so they hold a negative charge). Through programming (using AOKP rom), the device will allow more current or electrons to run through the device and onto the battery (electrodes to be more exact)? If that is the case, wouldn't this cause the battery to be damaged as the chemical reaction is sped up (ie other chemical reactions with the lithium causing them to be neutral or damaging the electrodes)? I've read around that fast charging on the galaxy nexus (hence the post here) is actually safe. Is that because the programmers increased the current above the original but to a point where there is insignificant damage? This is what I understood from some googling.

Another question is that this requires special kernels (or custom kernels) or reprogramming to work. However, AOKP is a ROM where it allows you to have the fast charge option with the original kernel. Does it mean the programming in AOKP is sufficient or do I need to switch a ROM? In either case, does franco's kernel support this option? Or is it the ROM that can control the fast charging without the kernel? Either way I'm currently using franco.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
It doesn't change anything. This phone has 2 charge modes, AC charging at 1 amp and usb charging at 0.5 amps. That just enables AC 1 amp charging on a usb plug that can handle it, nothing more. Its not changing any characteristic with charging.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
And to reiterate...

All it does is trick your phone into thinking it's plugged into the stock AC charger.

Nothing more. So it's still only pulling how much (from usb) as it normally would from an AC charger.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dh33r4j:
Guys, I have another question. Is it possible to disable USB charging?

I plug my phone to my laptop. When I'm not plugged-in, it drains my laptop battery. This damages my laptop battery. I've replaced two already.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marsy00:
Drain your laptop battery: yes

Damage your laptop battery: no

Its a normal usb function of your pc. anything you plug into your usb port will draw current from your laptop battery. batteries are designed to source current. that is their job.

---------- Post added at 09:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 AM ----------

Can someone explain how this works on the PC side? I have my phone plugged into my PC and battery monitor widget reports that I'm drawing 1050mA. Great, but I thought USB ports were limited to 500mA by the PC itself?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noobiekins:
That means your PC has double the amps on its USB ports/ your plugged into one of the double power USB ports
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crystol:
thanks for the explanation
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattyhank:
What happens if you plug the phone into a 2 amp charger, say the note 2's charger? Will it wreck the phone or just not accept the extra amperage??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pguizeline:
I've read the same explanation, but I still dunno why the CM team wouldn't make it possible to use fast charge with their kernels :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
If you plug the phone into a 2 amp charger, it will still charge at 1 amp.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Because they chose so? I never used it. Always treasured my USB port... Still do.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MikeCriggs:
Depends on the kernel

I would like to thank all of the awesome devs here in the Nexus One forum. You've taken me from a android noob, to a not-so-noobish noob. I'm still learning but I've recently got a One X. My N1 went south when it took up smoking and well.... It blew up. That's what you get for overclocking it way to much. But I would like to thank each and everyone of you for being awesome. Nexus One, You honestly changed me as a person and opened a whole new goal in life.

Okay enough of the rambling, I'm off to enjoy my 1X.

Take care guys.
[Nexus One General] Y2Ne1:
1st i like to say AWESOME bro i just got the Amaze so i'll be having this kind a post up soon myself ;) sorry to here about ur NESY :( maybe you can donate to developers i would but i need my n1 when i go to india :cool: i recently joined myself n learning TONS of mod n tweaks now all my friends at the office n daily life ask me to be there TEC GUY :rolleyes: it's fun because they all think im some kind of cumpert freak who can hack THE NEW WORLD ORDER :cool: lol all jokes aside YOU will be missed n your NEXY :( farewell n stop by on nexus one forums n help us all out bro
[Nexus One General] ahmedoxo:
yeah thank you all

I bought XPERIA S :D

Evervolv for ICS rom

Sad... I'm going to change my phone soon too, but the Nexus 1 will stay in my heart!
[Nexus One General] ShadowCodeGaming:
Am i the only one noticing that Jay_Rulen said thanks for leaving? LOL :D:D So you think it is good of him to leave?
[Nexus One General] espeanage:
I moved on to the Galaxy SII and will miss my N1. Thanks for the good times everyone!
[Nexus One General] madhhh:
whoa that's really sad, nd its great that u got one x, which is a successor of our nexus one :)
[Nexus One General] Cirkustanz:
I'm in a similar boat. I recently had to replace my N1, and it will be sorely missed. Especially the LED trackball! Sadly enough, the google nexus is too big for my taste, and I didn't really want to spend $400 up front on a new phone so I picked up another phone instead.

I've vowed though, that as long as the next Nexus device is sized more like what I prefer, I will buy it!
[Nexus One General] fuybjeans:
I can't believe it, but I'm saying goodbye to my trusty N1 too. I'm still going to keep it around for media stuff around the house, but I got to get me some of that LTE. And IMO, the HTC One X is the first phone that is a true successor to the Nexus One.
[Nexus One General] Stuart.upton666:
Indeed it is, It is the nexus 2. Only HTC can create such ground breaking devices.
[Nexus One General] k3vink3vin:
My N1 is still alive, but I have moved on to the galaxy nexus and I also find the screen is a little too big for my liking. Screen colour is also sub-par comparing to the N1, I never see proper white colour being displayed even after adjusting RGBs and gamma values.

I bought the japanese galaxy nexus for around $325usd, shipped to hong kong via yahoo auction jp a month ago.

Though I am still flashing different roms on my N1 to play with :)
[Nexus One General] pclewis:
Kept my N1

I still use the N1 when I travel and put prepaid SIM's or my own SIM in it. It is smaller than the Inspire and then the Galaxy Nexus that followed it. If it would take ICS, I would probably be using it more. I really like ICS over Gingerbread and the extra zip of the dual core.

Anyway, it stays in my travel bag as a spare.

[Nexus One General] Winters37:
that sucks man. but i'm looking at exchanging my n1 for 1x as well :o

[Nexus One General] furius:
Same here ... I'm moving to GNex now that price is affordable ...

I'm a bit sad because I really enjoyed the first nexus ... It was a pleasure to play with hundreds of custom roms and get support from this awesome devs community.

Thanks to all you awesome guys! :eek:
[Nexus One General] arafat_mw:
I'm planning to sell my Nexus One,,as the First Android device, this Smartphone has served me with pleasure... The devs are awesome as well...But the world is changing..Need better Specs now..I will miss my Sexy Nexy the most !!
