[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] weidnerj:
Anyone else notice that the camera (at least the one on my phone) isn't as good as they expected for indoor photos? I haven't taken a lot of photos indoors, but the ones that I have for the most part have not turned out. Out of focus or very grainy. Figured it would be a killer camera (better than the competitor with an Apple for a logo).

Very disappointing, specially that was one of the high points of the HTC EVO LTE phone.

Hopefully they can do something with software upgrades.

Thoughts and suggestions?????
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
If you leave default settings yes, don't use automatic and expect the picture to turn out perfect...

I am not a photographer, I do know what things to adjust (to a certain degree) and get decent indoor pictures (note that if you have crappy lighting, there's not much you can do to make the picture turn out good). Anyway, there's a thread with people that either are professional photographers or hobby photographers that can help you a lot more than me if you read through it:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
While I agree that tweaking a camera will help tremendously, I disagree that you should have to do that to get a decent indoor shot. My old EVO took fine pictures indoors, as do most camera phones. Who has time to adjust settings before every photo? "Hold on, don't blow out the candles yet - I need to change my ISO setting real quick."

One of the perks of this phone was the quickness of the camera, both loading the app and the shutter speed. I see little benefit of this when I need to make constant adjustments to get a non-grainy indoor shot. I've been highly disappointed by this as well.

Now outdoor shots... That's a whole 'nuther ballgame! Terrific with no adjustments! :-)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
Same deal with regular point and shoot or DSLR cameras. You CAN set it on auto and you WILL get a nice picture (btw my EVO takes decent pictures, even indoor) but it will have some grain to it, again you can't expect any less, especially with bad lighting. For example, if I shoot a picture in my room (my walls are like a dark tan color) I have poor lighting, enough to see decently but if I shoot a picture here, it will have a lot of grain. If I move to my kitchen with white walls and a bright white light, it's almost the same as if I'm taking the picture outside.

Environment matters, lighting matters, settings matter.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cyrene:
I get great indoor photos, even in the dark. Set on auto. My 3D took horrible pics, poor color quality, everything was drab, so I love this camera.

I am trying to set a contact number for Sim Change alert. But when I try to save the number, a little popup says 'Enter SMS'. What is this telling ?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuvas:
You have to enter an sms message in the same menu. This is used to send you the message which you have set when someone changes the SIM in your phone

There is an option called "Alert msg" click on that and enter your message.

[HTC Rezound] 300k:
I've been trying with this for half a day and I've gotten nowhere. I went to the section where it should how to get unrooted again, where i fastboot oem lock (or something along those lines) and then exe the RUU. I believe due to Joelz rom, i was at 3.14.etc and the RUU was the 2.11.etc so it wouldn't flash the image and ended the RUU exe. Then i tried with the PH98IMG.zip but that didn't work either. I'm not sure what to do anymore. There might be something I'm missing, but i don't know what that could be. All help appreciated . Thanks.

P.S. I'm S-on
[HTC Rezound] dogredwing1:
you need to be s off to downgrade
[HTC Rezound] 300k:
once i s-off, how do i downgrade? I've never downgraded RUU's before.
[HTC Rezound] dogredwing1:
Just run the ruu as you normally would.
[HTC Rezound] 300k:
Okay. This is more of a safe measure question. Do I run a the RUU before I relock the bootloader, and or run ruu, then relock, and then run ruu again?
[HTC Rezound] dogredwing1:
once your s-off'ed you dont need to lock and relock bootloader to ruu
[HTC Rezound] 300k:
I think I didn't say it right. What I meant to say is if I want to go back to stock stock settings, do I need to run the RUU, then lock the bootloader, and the run the RUU again?
[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
S-off, this will leave you locked. Don't unlock as there is no reason/advantage to unlock after s-off. Then, just run the RUU either using the .exe from your computer or downloading the .zip file to the root of your sd card and renaming it PH98IMG.zip. Good luck!
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Since no one wants to just answer your question. You cannot RUU without locking your bootloader unless you are s-off. So go ahead and relock and run the ruu.

Hi,

QuickOffice or Polaris Viewer

Thank you.

Hola,

QuickOffice o Polaris Viewer

Gracias
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
Yes you can...

You will just need the corresponding apk files of the apps...

There was an old version of appmonster, which did that...but I can't give you that because of forum rules...

If you are rooted, you can simply copy the apk from /system/app/

And then install it normally (or alternatively, via root explorer) on your other phone

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Avilove.Cullen:
You can do one more thing . ! If you want application with it's data also then take backup of the app with titanium backup and then copy titanium backup from your sd card to the another device ;)

Install Titanium Backup on other device and then restore.

I brought over my sd card from my 3d. It now saves pictures in a directory called ext sd. How can I change this back?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lanewhit:
Believe it or not... That is actually your external sd card
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
I can take the card out, look at it on the computer and I see both. It's like the os sees two different sd cards.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lanewhit:
Was the card partitioned?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
Now I'm more confused. If I look at the root, I see sdcard and sdcard2 (which points to the sd_ext directory.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] pinky059:
Your phone has an internal (sdcard) and external (sdcard2). They are linked by sdcard/ext_sd path.

also data/media/ is linked to the internal (sdcard)...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
That's craziness. So everything needs to be moved to the sd_ext directory?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
It doesn't have to, you can swap the two mount points around. There are at least two threads on this on the Android Dev forum, search before posting. Also there's a FAQ roundup thread by me in this forum, read it if you're new with the phone...

EDIT: Also if you don't want to move the swap points but you want your camera to save pictures to your external card:

Bought sgs3 2 days ago and I'm overall very satisfied with my purchase. However i already started to miss the bigger screen of the Note which i gave to my wife. One thing is for sure-i will get Note 2 in couple of months
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NOZdroid:
Addict. But I can't talk. I miss my note too. Even tho has the same Res screen there's something about it. I gave it too my girlfriend when she went overseas instead of using her iphone and she fell in love. That said I would still pick the s3
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcyspark:
Having the note with aokp and the dpi set to 240 really does make me miss all of that screen space.

I'm using my s3 as a daily and my note as a baby tablet. Best of both worlds.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyryn:
IMO,two straight forward options:

1. If you are in a hurry, just pick the s3 (performance way better than the current note)

2. If you can wait, then go for the note2

(It's performance will surely be on par or better than s3, then it will just be a choice of screen size preference and ergonomic comfort)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dillsnik:
In comparing the 2, i notice a couple differences that will make a difference to me.

1. No search button and home button is different...i know there is a center button, but i don't like that you have to hard press that, as opposed to the soft press of the note. I use maps a LOT and that search button was perfect for it...i think i would miss those 2 features.

2. The form factor of SIII is very nice, feels nicer in the hand and easier to hit all corners of screen, and just use one handed in general.

3. Note is MUCH bigger screen.

Can't tell performance-wise a huge difference yet but that could change...

still on the fence but leaning towards the note bc of the buttons
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c0brabg:
Even though both of the phones have big screens I would say S III (for me) is just the right size. Note and Note II would be to big in my opinion unless you have something like a bag to carry them.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dillsnik:
after using the note for a few months, the sIII does NOT seem like a big screen at all, in fact i was hoping it would be bigger and that would have made my decision easier. a pinch smaller than the note is PERFECT imo.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garvit18:
Note for me is way better than s3 .....

Bigger screen....

More powerful battery.......

Comes with s-pen.....

And by rooting my gnote I have got all the new features which comes with s3.....

I think this is enough for you to make a decision and pick a right cell....

Or wait for Note 2

Note really rockzzz....

Hello everyone.

I am fairly new to Galaxy Nexus (but not new to Android ROM flashing). How do I install JellyBelly? Currently I am rooted with BL unlocked. Please answer the following questions:

- Do I need CWM for JellyBelly?

- Do I need to wipe/factory reset (I am on yakju 4.0.4)

- Exactly when do I flash "JellyFix"? Right after I flash the ROM?

- Does the ROM has any issues (i.e battery life, volume, hw problems etc.)

- Do you advise to install this ROM, or instead wait for the official Google's OTA?

Now I could have easily found answers to this in the original thread, but the search functionality is unavailable for me and I am not in the mood of going through 100s of pages. I would really appreciate it if someone answers these questions for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BelowTheHeavens:
You do need CWM

You would have to wipe data & cache

So far I have not encountered any bugs, everything runs completely smooth. (Project Butter :D)

I saw you flash now, I promise you will not regret it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Poster above me practically answered everything. Except that, most roms now, you don't need to flash "JellyFix" or whatever, because their roms have been updated to include the fix internally, so you just flash the rom and you're good. But for the sake of completeness, yes, you would flash the fix for whatever problem after you flash the rom.

Okay guys.. I was in doomskernel few months ago. Then I felt it was a little laggy, even when I'm scrolling the screen! So what I did was flashed the stock kernel, and stock firmware. Then get back to doomskernel v14, it was better this time. What I encountered was that when I'm playing mass effect infiltrator, shadowgun, nova 3. It lags A LOT, as if my phone doesn't have enough RAM. I checked it at boot was like 200+, then when I got lower it is 100+ and then lower. I did tried out v6 supercharger and RAM manager but it is still the same. Did I do anything wrong? Or can you please explain to me? Thanks in advance.:D and sorry if I reposted this.

EDIT:Okay, 1 more thing is that if it's super lag. It will reboot, but just the Sony Ericsson logo. No doomskernel.

I traded my rooted galaxy nexus for a rooted htc one x. Before I got his htc one x, he performed a factory reset on his phone.

After I got home I realized that his contacts, his accounts and all his apps were still there. I did a factory reset again but they are still there.

Is there a way to completely wipe everything off it? I do want to keep the root on though if possible (because I want to keep it unlocked).

When I go in the recovery mode this is what I see.

****Tampered***

****Unlocked***

Will clearing the storage help?
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
@Op,

Some time ago somebody told me here on the board that if you factory reset your phone using recovery mode it

will wipe the storage as well, that it's different as factory reset in OS settings where the storage is kept.

I think you need to wipe storage indeed to remove the contacts.

Can you please let me know when you decide to factory reset the phone in recovery mode the storage get wiped too?

I didn't have time to test this and I'm very curious if it does.

Thanks a lot. :)
[HTC One X] xtwo:
I tried to do that half an hour ago. It was stuck on htc logo with this paragraph underneath for almost 10 minutes until my patience ran out:) "This build is for development purpose only.......legal action."

I'm trying that again now and I'll let you know what happens.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Nope, don't do that please.

If you like to wipe the storage I think the best you can do is use settings/storage in OS to accomplish.

Before you do I would like to advise you to make a backup of Clockworkmod directory (copy it to your pc) on your storage if that exist.

So incase something happens you are still able to restore.
[HTC One X] xtwo:
Okay. So far that I'll have to download and install the htc one x kit first? Is there a thread you can direct me to please?
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Sorry but I have no idea what you mean with the htc one x kit.

Info how to unlock and root your phone you can find >> HERE

If that's what you mean?
[HTC One X] xtwo:
Thanks but I have no idea which method the other guy used to root this phone. Stuff like rom Manager, super SU and Titanium backup are already installed in the phone. When I go to Rom manager and try to "Manage and Restore Backups" or "Backup current ROM" it asks me to install clockworkmod recovery first. However, when I try to do that it gives me a list of Phone models to choose from and HTC one X is not in that list.

When I went through the link you provided it says "Your bootloader must be unlocked via htcdev.com to use these solutions." Now how do I know if it's unlock via htcdev.com or not? How do I check?
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
It must be unlocked already otherwise there wasn't a custom rom on the phone. ;)

But you can verify that by going into bootloader, it should say 'unlocked'

SuperSU is needed to root the phone so that's normal as well.

And about Clockworkmod, it must be there as well otherwise you couldn't get into recovery.

My advise, go into recovery and make a backup first.

If that's done you can copy the Clockworkmod dir from your storage to your pc to make sure you have a valid backup.

Then you can wipe the storage and after that is done you place back the Clockworkmod dir.

From there you can look further and flash another custom rom or what you want. :)

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[HTC One X] KLUVJ:
keep holding down the volume down and power button until you get into bootloader. from there, u can tell whether it is unlocked or not, also, might as well check if it reads endeavor or evita, to make sure whether u have the dual core or quad core 1x, from there on, if unlocked check if u can go into recovery from the fastboot menu. if not then u know which step ull have to begin at, if yes, then u can start flashing right away. Btw, recovery as in a custom recovery such as clockworkmod or twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iiDeadSeriousii:
Everywhere I'm reading has a kind of vague description about the software update that Google and Samsung are coming up with to avoid Apple's supposed patent claims. What exactly does it mean for us end users? All I can understand is that now the search bar won't look through our apps to find info when we look for it, but what kind of examples does it really mean?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hasan10:
It is exactly as you said. The quick search bar and voice search won't be able to look through Apps, Gmail, Music, and other stuff. Simply put, it will only search the web.

For example; Say you have Angry Birds installed. Before the OTA, if you go into quick search and type "Angry Birds" it will let you actually launch the application right from there. Same goes for music; if you type in a track name you will be able to play the track right from there.

Now after the OTA, you will be able to do none of that. You will simply be able to search the web, thats it.

TL,DR: Apple is a *****; Banning a functionality that has been on Android for a very long time because that is the only way to combat competition, through lawsuits;

EDIT: Don't worry about Google Now, as that won't be affected since it is considered a product of Google running on various devices and not Samsung. Apple doesn't have the balls to sue Google.
