I never had bluetooth issues with Inquisition but then again, I think I may have been on the stable version and just flashed the patches to get the trackpad wake and alt/caps lights but never actually flashed the new beta kernel with those fixes included. I wonder if that's the difference. *shrug* Thank god I have MikTouch 0.7 to fall back on in any event.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CDaccord:
If you're talking about the camera links on the first page, I've already mentioned that I have camera zoom fx pro. The first link was dead so I don't know what it was but I have several other paid camera apps. The "over 9000" quote was pertaining to having bluetooth connectivity issues, and yes we kind of derailed the topic for a quick second.

To reiterate, bluetooth works fine for me except when I'm in the presence of well over 100 active bt devices at work. Its usually either I can't find the device I want to pair with in the list of devices, or while paired to my HMDX Jam speaker and streaming Pandora I'll get sleep of death. Local music works fine in that scenario, and while not at work bluetooth is usually spot on.

Back to camera related stuff: I've been contemplating returning to bulletproof or trying miktouch just for some variety and comparison to the sense 3.6hq I've been using. Maybe I'll give that sense bliss rom a whirl as well.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
If you do try the Sense Bliss ROM, I would recommend going with the Sensation XE 3.32 version. He later released one based on the Sensation XE 3.33 but I had some serious battery life and lag issues with that version. The 3.32 version was very stable and smooth.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] vijer:
Where can we get it?

So is there a way to get this apk on the S3?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
It isn't just the software, the camera hardware on the MT4GS is simply better. It is a really good BSI sensor with a better processing chip.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] macksgarage:
On a complete side note...I figured out how to get the default camera button behavior from sleep on any rom. Which is to say wake up straight to the camera. Map focus button (211) to FOCUS WAKE_DROPPED

When you press and hold the camera button it will wake and go to camera just like the stock rom...except...bypassing the lockscreen is another matter. You have to turn off or disable the lockscreen.

Now if only I could figure a way to map the camera button to the app of my choice....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Well, on the surface both yes and no, but it's irrelevant anyways in the scope of achieving camera greatness from the S3 beyond it's lackluster hardware.

The hardware of the camera in the doubleshot is unquestionably superior to the S3.

I dropped by to post something about that. This is the second christmas i've gone through with smartphone cameras - last year the doubleshot, this year used the S3. I regret using the S3... it just wasn't up to the task.

I take a ton of pictures of the event over christmas for the family of my lady. Run a bunch of them through the various photo apps available, then migrate the whole project to photoshop when I hit a real terminal. All the stuff from the apps is just more fodder for photoshop.

Anyways, that all starts from the base photos taken. Forget the idea of random spray and pray, though things like burst shot are great for isolating specific action sequences or events. Imagine the camera being in the hands of someone who puts effort into composition, especially with the intent of collaging the pictures or only taking specific parts for use.

Lighting, that was the killer of the S3. It was just unable to perform adequately in the challenging variances of lighting in/out of the house, around the tree and so on where the doubleshot feels so at home.

I only got a dismal fraction of the shots I got last year under the same conditions with the doubleshot. Bear in mind this is a year further in photo study and with a few months of practice with the S3 - wasn't operator error. At the very least should have gotten as good as last year.

As it would be possible to reverse engineer and rewrite the camera app in a way the S3 could understand, the camera travesty of that device needs more help then that monumental effort would give.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] MT4GS:
I haven't play with S3 but to me Nexus 4 camera is the worst phone snapshooter I have seen so far.

You should have seen over- or under-exposed crap taken by Nexus 4 (the LG make, not Samsung)

Colors are constantly washed-out or over-saturated (the latter seems to be actually liked by most ppl in my family) and there are so many other wrongs...

Makes the pics taken with MT4GS look like pro, lol

Looking back, now I think I was a bit too harsh when I bashed MT4GS' camera. Even though it doesn't have gimmicks like 360 photos it does take decent snapshots compared to Nexus 4.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
A friend who is a professional photographer (he's had photos published in national magazines and won awards) saw some photos I took with my MT4GS. He asked to try it out, he was so impressed he bought one for himself. He uses Nikon professional equipment, but he said the MT4GS is perfect for taking the quick, fast photos he needs and to also use for framing up shots to take with the professional equipment. He had previously used an iPhone4S but said he preferred the color balance of the MT4GS (using stock rooted ROM).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Yea, it really is dependent upon the stock htc camera app to use the device to much, much more of its potential ability.

No other camera app i've used...pretty sure I didn't miss any free or paid... can muster the consistent quality over life in general. With the stock camera app on this device I am more capable of delivering a quality shot on the spot - any spot.

The stock camera app is really fine tuned to the nuances of the device. I doubt that for the doubleshot you will find anything better to use as the app to get the picture with.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
I'd like to mention the GS3 camera flash is ridiculously bright. To the point where it hurts your eyes. Quite handy from a flashlight perspective though
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Frazercrib:
i think ucam is a good replacement for the stock camera if you prefer aosp to sense..had really decent pictures with these app,even in low-light conditions
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] steve_77:
This is a very cool thread, its true that the stock camera app was the main reason to purchase this phone, but after years of resisting upgrading finally jumped on Emmanuel U, et al, KitKat, which is totally awesome! However I still find myself missing that stock sense based camera app! :(

Its nice to chat about alternatives and do see that Camera Zoom FX was mentioned as was Camera ICS (and by extension Camera KK but what about Focal. are there any other apps available that can take just as good photos as the stock camera app? Too bad there wasnt a way to port that stock camera app to later versions of android that arent sense based.... seems like its a pretty hot issue... someone really needs to find a way to acquire that sourcecode! Or figure out how to fool the app to think that sense is installed or something... but the stock camera was great, haven't seen anything (still looking) that enables our device to take as good as pictures as to that sense based app.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
The most efficient combination I have found for the camera (after months of testing) seems to be... Camera FV-5 and Snapseed.

With those two apps installed, my phone has become a true moments-capturing beast.

As for the camcorder, I use lgCamcorder. You can't go wrong with this one.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] medori:
I am using CM 10.1 & I tried the zoom fx and the DSLR camera apps and both crash after 2 or 3 photos and the camera doesn't work at all until I restart the phone :crying: even these 2 or 3 pics are with very poor quality, I really miss the stock rom camera, sometimes, I took photos with it even better than my professional digital camera

I guess that this is for the Xperia S?

It is a common problem for all the phones with the wl12xx WIFI driver.

Please try the following and let me know if it is working.

1. disable WIFI.

2. open your favourite file explorer with root access (for example ES File Explorer).

3. delete /data/misc/dhcp/dhcpcd-wlan0.lease and /data/misc/dhcp/dhcpcd-wlan0.pid

4. enable WIFI.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] amey_gangal:
will this give me proper signal from my service provider...i have a rooted gsm xperia s...

wifi is properly working in cm9

no, it is only to fix WIFI.

Thought that it was WIFI that was failing for you.

Hi,

I've stumbled on this

http://www.nillkin.com/En/NewsView.asp?ID=1820

and it looks interesting...

I found it on AliExpress

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/MTK6...multi-touch-Screen-new-MTK6575/493024469.html

but they are sold in pairs and they are not so cheap...

Anybody found them on other sites?

[Nexus 7 Accessories] met67:
??? I've read/searched most of the threads in this section and never saw this case before.

This is not the TPU Nillkin case, is much more similar to the Poetic Portfolio...
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Troute:
My mistake, I assumed 'leather' as in vinyl the way most chinese sellers say it. The case is a standard type sold under many different names and can be seen in many posts on this forum but not in a real leather finish.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] met67:
I still don't understand: if you are referring to this case (I ordered one of these myself from SunSky for 6$ and am waiting for it...)

Sigh! They don't ship to Italy...:crying:

Thanks anyway...

@Troute: I also noticed the similarities with the Poetic portfolio case (see post #3), but they are definitely not the same case.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Hmmm tempting!! I have had past hard cases from Nillkin and are nice quality. This is indeed similar but the only difference I see is the cross stitching on the back and the top and bottom of the bezel are bare, the common MO of Nillkin slim cases.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] LouZiffer:
Just so folks know what to expect - Both of the ebay auctions for this say in one small spot that they aren't actual leather cases. They're made with PU leather.

From the UK auction: "It is made with Plolyurethane" (sic)

From the US auction: "Material:	Synthetic Leather"

[Nexus 7 Accessories] ermacwins:
Nice case, might recommend to my brother
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Aleemz:
Totally agree. I've noticed sellers have started to use the term 'vegan leather' now as another sales ploy to make the plastic out to have a benefit over leather.

For some, non-leather may be the preferred choice, but I would pay more than double for leather. It ages so much better, you only need to look at leather shoes and leather-look shoes.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Zeros:
OK, I received this case today. I really like the look and feel of this case. The leather has a nice feel even if it isn't real leather. For all of you Portfolio fans, yes, the cover folds back completely. The cover is a smart cover that turns the screen on and works perfectly. When the cover is shut, it does not lay flat, but that may change once it breaks in. You can see what I mean in the pictures. My only problem with this case is that the hole in the top for the microphone looks like it is about 1 mm off, so the plastic covers the hole. I have an email in to Nillkin to see what they say about this.

Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure. Please feel free to ask me any questions about this or request any other pictures.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Zeros:
I was just looking over the Portfolio review and wanted to add a couple things. This case folds the same as the porfolio to use the Nexus 7 in both upright and lower angles positions.

I do like the magnets on the Portfolio case that keep the cover shut. This case does not have any magnets, so the front flap just lays on the screen and is not secured shut.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] cys920622:
Wouldn't the cover need magnets to work the "smart cover" functionality, which apparently works? are they just not strong enough to keep it shut? it looks like the end of the cover overlaps the plastic part of the case...
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Zeros:
You are correct that there is a magnet in the cover to work the smart cover function. What I ment is if you look at this picture from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1901596:

Portfolio puts magnets in the side of the case (in the red circles) as well to keep the cover shut

Ach! To me this is a show stopper. Too bad, I was hoping to have found the right case foe me :(

Best case ever. Received mine Friday and its awesome. The only thing I've noticed is the slightly off set mic cut out (the one on the side is fine). Other than that its flawless. The back is more grippy than genuine leather feeling which I like because there's less of a chance of me dropping it. After it wears in a bit and makes the cover a little more foldable it will be perfect.

Got mine in, i like the size and feel but I have an issue with standing it up, whenever I fold it and stand it up in portrait mode it eventually falls flat after about 5 mins. I've tried bending it and breaking it in, but was wondering if anyone else had these issues I'm not sure if I would spend 25 on this case again seeing as there are similar cheaper options.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] thephantom:
I don't think it's supposed to stand securely in portrait mode. The flap in front can be folded to have 2 stand methods in landscape mode
[Nexus 7 Accessories] jawang26:
I thought it was suppose to be able to stand up in portrait mode, or the show it standing in the videos..either way I messaged the seller and I'm going to return it. Hopefully other smart cases will be able to be more stable in portrait mode
[Nexus 7 Accessories] :
You do know what portrait mode is right? None of these cases support it (officially) .

Just got mine yesterday, after only 6 days (it usually takes two weeks) ! I'm really happy with the quality, it is well built and feels nice to the touch (even though it's synthetic). It isn't perfectly flat when closed yet, but I guess it needs some breaking in.

Just wanted to post my impressions of the Nillkin Leather Case. I bought mine on eBay about a month ago from ebay seller tablet.world and it is great. It did take two weeks to arrive from China but wait was worth it. The N7 fits perfectly in the case and the magnet wake cover works as should. Seems like it is breaking in quite nicely and is making the N7 more comfortable to use then when it was naked.

Big thumbs up for the Nillkin Leather Case!
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Black Dawg Down:
If I keep the tablet in my backpack, do you think the front flap will move around and therefore make it turn on and off with every jolt?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Zeros:
It may. I keep mine in a padded Mofi pouch in my work bag for added protection and to keep the case shut.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] totality:
How are people finding the case after weeks of use? Does the front flap lie flat when it is worn in, or does it always sit up a bit due to the stiffness of the flap material?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] bsoplinger:
Also if you could add in any experiences either good or bad on just general wear like does the flap fray or flop around loosely, etc. I really do like how the case looks compared to many of the other smart cases.
