When I try to use my wifi connection at home its really really slow. Sometimes it just loads part of the websites or some other it doesnt load at all and I have to refresh it several times so it loads. I also have an iphone and a laptop which dont have this problem at all. Theyre working perfectly fine with my wifi connection.

This only happens with wifi, on 3g it works fine. I havent been able to try more wifi networks to see if this only happens with mine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AZ FadeOut:
Are you rooted? Could certainly be a kernel issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] survivor_evil:
Yes its rooted. This is the kernel shown on the about menu

3.0.8-gda6252b

android-build@vpbs1 #1

SMP PREEMPT Fri Apr 13 11:35:09 PDT 2012
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AZ FadeOut:
To me it shouts out kernel issue. I've had graphical errors on stock where it shows I don't have any signal but everything still pulls up nice and fast. I would reccomend a new rom and or kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
It also could be a WiFi issue. I was having WiFi issues with my GNex also that I thought was the phone until I started tweaking my Router settings. Some devices are more forgiving to certain routers. In addition some devices Roam to different AP's much better than others.

I have 2 WiFi AP's in my house to span covereage across 2900sqft. I found that my WiFi was just conflicting with each other causing issues with speed and connection so this is what I did.

My Modem is a TWC Wireless Modem - WiFi turned off.

Router 1 Linksys E4200 is Bridged to TWC Modem it is dual band so I have the 5ghz band set MyHomeAP in mixed mode with a 40Mhz Spread, using 36 as the Channel. The 2.4Ghz band is set to MyHomeAP-N in N only mode with a 40mhz Spread and 11 as the channel. I need a seperate SSID here because it was causing conflicts and I needed a 2.4ghz connection upstairs for my Transformer Prime Tab since it does not support 5ghz radios.

Router 2 Netgear WNR300L with DD-WRT loaded is downstairs on the other side of the house. It is a 2.4 ghz router which I have set to MyHomeAP with a 20mhz spread set to channel 1. This allows my devices that are 5ghz compatible to Roam between each AP without conflicts.

So with all that I am now getting 45 mbs WiFi when I am upstairs and connected to the Linksys and 21 mbps downstairs when I am connected to the Netgear downstairs. The Tab is getting a consistent 15mbps on each router which is acceptable for me. This is an improvement from getting 3mbps anywhere in the else regardless of the closeness to the router or the device being used. I'm now able to maximizesmy use of the WideBand service which gets about 52 mbps on a wired connection most of the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
The GN has lots of issues with different network gear and a lot of it can't be solved by tweaking. Seems like I've heard the most success stories with netgear. I'm using ubee and trendnet and my wifi isn't great. I get between 5 and 20 mbps and its choppy with a lot of disconnects.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
You always have to be careful using multiple Wireless routers in the house, because if they are not setup right you will get consistent disconnects and low speeds. Same thing was happening to me until I really digged in and configured my multiple routers correctly. Check my previous post on how I solved my router issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] II12yanII:
Are you getting good signal when your connected to your wifi
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Just one router, the time warner ubee docsis 3.0 modem/router. The rest are trendnet APs at 1,6,11. All with same ssid and security. No interference as checked with wifi analyzer. The wifi just sucks. Not much more you can say except try different gear which shouldn't be necessary. All of my laptops etc work great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] survivor_evil:
I tried my gnex on other wifi network and it worked well. I tried it again on mine with negative results. Idk what could be wrong, all other devices i have, 2 laptops and 1 iphone work well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
What's wrong is the GNs wifi doesn't play nice with all network gear as it should. Just curious, what is your router and APs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] survivor_evil:
Ok this is my wifi configuration. what could the problem be? My nexus still works like crap on my wifi network
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
Is there a reason you are not using "all" foe your basic and transmission rates. I have dd-wrt also and that is set to all for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] survivor_evil:
nothing special i just reset the router to see if that helped but its the same
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Your basic rate is set to 1-2mbs, so don't expect more than that. Change it to 54mbs or whatever the max is and see if it helps.

Sent from my HP Touchpad running ICS :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] survivor_evil:
Even if i change it to 10mb it.doesnt make a difference. As i said before. I have 2 laptops and 1 iphone and all of them work perfectly except the nexus

Update: added ICS+5MP-based on original Arc S apk

Update: added GB apk - fixed 3mp preview width (was same as 16:9 instead of 4:3)

________________________________________________________________

Hi all,

I'm new to android and development and this is my first modded apk

After great thread on ray forum I tried to dig and try different settings.

this is my final version of the apk, I don't think that the quality can be improved any more without modifying camera lib files.

*In this version you will get more camera MP options:5MP 4:3,3MP 4:3(only in GB)

*All the bitmaps changed to ARGB_8888 for better quality.

*Tried to enable inPreferQualityOverSpeed and inDither to the bitmap

*APK icons changed to ICS icons(in GB version)

*Jpeg quality is 100%(In GB version, In ICS it configured via mediaprofiles.xml)

*video bit rate is 6Mbps(stock) - the best value in terms of quality\size

3 versions attached:

GB version(based on Ray's camera apk)

ICS-based on original Arc S apk.

ICS+5MP-based on original Arc S apk+ 5mp option.

The GB version works on my Ray -2.3.4 .58FW.

ENJOY!

NOTE: After days of checking-auto mode takes photos in very high ISO rating(even during sunny day , outdoor!) so try to use manual mode!

Portrait scene takes smother photos and Party scene is for indoor photos and it preffers lower ISO but lower shatter speed (1/16s~1/5s)- so hold still the phone to avoid blurry images

And please make comparison photo before replacing the apk!

Changing jpeg quality in media_profiles.xml:

original:

Change to:

original

change to:

Don't forget to Stop camera apk service before replacing it!

~~~~Try on your risk- I'm not responsible for any dmg!~~~~~

thanks to Larut for his first mod 100% jpeg

thanks to hansip87 4 the great thread- made me want to dig in the code! :-)

thanks to charlesfu4 for uploading the original arc S ICS camera apk.

If you liked this thread- please hit "Thanks" button :)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] timpot07:
Nice.. I'll try it bro.. thanks..

Edit: Oops.. only for gb. Can you provide apk for 562-ics? Thanks
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] charlesfu4:
Is there any method to mod the ISO manually?

or the camera was just as everybody said,it's not capable to change ISO?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
there is no support in camera driver(***sony)

I will mod ICS version in future if you confirm that the quality is improved.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] charlesfu4:
It seemed that sony have solved the compression problem on ICS

But I just have some question: the photos are now ranged from 1.7-2.9mb on my xperia Arc S ICS ,how about yours(your cameraUI)?

I have once seen that the photos were 5.xmb on my 7MP's digital camera

so ICS still didin't totally solve the problems right?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
its the same (2~3 mb)

Android sucks because Uncompressed jpeg not supported (jpeg 12 in photoshop or 120%)

and I wasnt able to save as png.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] WYNNIEPOOH:
thank´s

I am interesting in this mod but i have ics.there i can testing if works. i wait for you try to do it in ics and afther i tell you how looks.thank´s.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
I need the framework files for the apktool to decode ics version

can U upload it? (2 files)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] charlesfu4:
OK what do you need?

semcCameraUI.apk and what's the other file?

here I attach the file~Arc S ICS official SemcCameraUI.apk(zip)

Hey guys ,if you want to restore your ics camera please change the files to xxx.apk

And substitute it for the one you installed in \system\app
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
in GB it was framework-res and SemcGenericUxpRes- its in system/framework/
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] charlesfu4:
don't you need the SemcCameraUI.apk??

and how can you posted your picture on imageshake??

it always appears you didn't login when i post on the forum:confused:

here i upload these two files~
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Ridho1:
Just installed. Test it tomorrow. Right now is night.

First impression, the app start up is faster.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
Update- ICS version added!(first post)- (based on hansip87 ICS modded apk- default bit-rate+5MP option) go to this thread to learn how to change JPEG Compression value in ICS!

since I don't have ICS I cant test it myself- try on your risk and share your findings(bugs?)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
ICS USERS- Please post feedback! is the APK works??? I cant test it my self and it useless to continue modding the apk if no one approves if it works!(more then 10 downloads and no 1 post feedback if the apk works!)

I modded the original ARC camera apk - thanks to charlesfu4.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] bbogdann:
It works for Arc. I tried last night. I don't know if is there any difference btw modded version and stock one.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Lancerfq:
Pictures taken before and then after modding with ICS, only problem is it wouldnt let me install the ICS+5mp apk but i did mod the jpeg compression

Before Mod

After Mod
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] ghekua:
Just replaced with the modded one, startup more faster but FC when i go to change the resolution :D
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
thanks 4 the feedback!

can you attach photos as ZIP? - I need to see the original size photo(you can upload here up to 11MB zip)

And I have noticed that the Before shot was at OFF scene (1/32s ISO 500) and the After shot was at Portrait scene (1/50s ISO 640) so its hard to compare.

Can you take the same photo at OFF scene again(like the Before shot)? - thanks!

and how are you installing the apk? via file explorer(copy/change permissions/replace) or regular apk installer?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
FC =Force closed? if so- which version did you tried? on which FW?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] hung195:
nothing happended. working normally.

testing for image quality ^^
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] ironlady:
hi before the mod what was the stock jpeg and video compression rate?

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 PM ----------

I'm not seeing any visible difference but there's a slight change in file size

STOCK:

MOD:
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Lancerfq:
I see a nice little difference in image quality, improves clarity and colours etc
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] IROC_69:
i see relatively less noise in the moded version
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
I'm glad you liked it, I will add the 5MP option to the original arc S moded camera apk.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] charlesfu4:
Is there anyone who can mod it to manually changing the ISO

I think Sony just lock the feature ,need someone to makea breakthrough,:-)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
We can't! No support in the camera driver :@
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] blikjebanaan:
seems that I did something wrong. i replaced the semccamereapk with this modded one but I couldn't find the camera app anywhere camera button also not working.When i replaced the modded with original apk ( back up) it shows an app but imedently stops it when opened.

What I'm I doing wrong and how to solve.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
1)first stop camera service in application and clear data

2)copy modded camera apk to "root" folder and change permissios

3)cut the camera apk and past and replace in system/app the stock apk

4)reboot

Enjoy!
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] blikjebanaan:
It worked i forgot to change the permision of the apk works fine now.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] jtc42:
Awh that sucks :( The ISO is out of control in ICS :s

Hi, Xperia-Ray is this possible to turn off autofocus in "night scene" mode @ICS? In GB it was infinity, now it's autofocus one point O_o, it's really fcking up pictures with EV+ settings and sometimes pics are out of focus...
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Xperia-Ray:
can't you manually use Infinity focusing on NIGHT SCENE mod?

I don't have ICS and ICS files for apktool, you can help me and upload ics stock camera apk + framework filles 4 apktool (2 filles) and I will try to look if I can help.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] whyparch:
for me is even better than moded holo camera... I like the sharpness of the photo and less noises also photo and video compresion is better. videos are 2 times smaller and I see no difference betewen them. One thing I found it could be better is that zoom regulation is too sensible.
