[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bhatch:
Hello all,

When I got my Nexus 7 with 4.1 I noticed that Google put back the ability to control the Notification volume separately from the main volume. They added a little button at the end of the volume slider that when clicked would expand the volume slider into to two sliders one for main volume and one for notifications. I was excited to see this and assumed that it would come to my phone (where it would be way more useful) when I received the JB update (VZW).

Well I got the update and... nope not there.

Then I stumbled across this:

http://support.google.com/nexus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2590464&topic=2590214&ctx=topic Look for Notification Volume

That clearly states the phone should have it. I then talked to google support and they tell me they can't help me and that the "carrier" probably changed it.

I then asked a friend who just got a GNEX from the play store if she has this ability and she said "NO".

So does anyone (besides rooted folk) have this ability? if so which carrier?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bhatch:
Anybody? Yes or no and which carrier would be helpful.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dschreiber69:
No

GSM

But I wish I did

Is there any way to calibrate the light sensor? It works when under direct light from a strong lightsource.

Sometimes when im getting calls, it just get stuck, and keep locking the screen.

And it never works other then under a lamp, for example.

If its not possible, can i turn it off permanently?
[HTC One X] Vcek:
you are confusing Ambient light sensor with proximity sensor. (they are both built into the same unit)

They are both located approximately 1cm left of the htc-logo-right-under-the-earpiece

Ambient light sensor is responsible for autobrightness.

Proximity sensor is responsible for checking if anything is close to the earpiece(your ears during calls)

proximity sensor turns on an extremely dull-red light(infra-red) which may not be visible to some people (you can see it clearly through another phone camera)

About your first problem you can simply look in the market for an Autobrightness app and turn off system autobrightness(you can choose what brightness at what sensor reading)

About your second problem it seems its a bug, probably in most cases i've seen in this forum caused by Viber app (or any other data-calling apps), either try uninstalling those apps or choose in their settings not to control normal phone calls and proximity sensor.

Give feedback if it works :D
[HTC One X] nickejag:
O and yeah, this have been "working" with venomrom, simply pressing power button, to turn screen on, mostly,

But now when i installed CM10, I simply cant turn screen on, by pressing the power button, so i have to turn off the device.
[HTC One X] maniacaus:
There are 2 different sensors that you're talking about. Ambient light sensor and proximity sensor. The proximity sensor turns off the screen completely when you're in a call and it senses your head up against the phone. The ambient light sensor will only chance the screen brightness. You can tweak values for the screen brightness but not that I'm aware for the proximity sensor (turning the screen off completely).

---------- Post added at 03:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 AM ----------

That "screen of death" problem is only with the latest builds of CM10 as far as i know. If you go back to a beta / sense ROM you should stop getting these. Nightlies will always have these kind of bugs.
[HTC One X] nickejag:
Alright, what im meant is the Proximity sensor. This happend after my phone got a new screen from repairment. (Dont wanna sent it back, way to slow)

When i start a phonecall, the screen goes off, and during that call i cant get the screen back on. Have to longpress the power button, to reboot the device :(

And now the device is completely fresh installed with CM10
[HTC One X] Marc199:
I had the same problem after a repair. Thought it was just a bad install but the problem was persistent. Even on other Roms. It was a hw problem. Hopefully for you its not that.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Akiix:
Hi everyone,

Im using a Xperia Neo and have flashed the CM10-Kernel with Flashtool.

When i try to install the Rom I get the Message :

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "MT15i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "MT15i" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "MT15a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "MT15a" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "hallon" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "hallon";

E:Error in sdcard/CM10/FXP141_cm-10-20121007-UNOFFICIAL-hallon.zip

(Status 7)

Installation Aborted

I read that i should delete all getprop lines from the update script. Now i get this message:

E:Error sdcard/CM10/cm10getprop.zip

(Status 6)

Installation Aborted

I redownloaded the file but the Installation still gets aborted.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thank you in advance! :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] gregbradley:
Search in the cm10 thread and on the github, solution already exists, you just need to search.

Hi all !

Does anyone know why there still is no section for the RAZR HD ?

It's already been realized. At least here, in France.

Does it share common hardware with another phone ?

Thanks

Stas
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Mischief:
I think xda is US based, do you probably won't see a dedicated forum for the Razr HD until it is released here.

It uses the Snapdragon S4 processor, so it is similar in that respect to many phones.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smaghe:
Thank you, I'll be waiting til the end of the month then !

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] senergy:
I'm patiently waiting too. Been out in Australia for a week or so now. Besides being a bit heavy I'm loving it.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Mischief:
How's battery life? The old Razr has a 1780mah battery, while the new Razr HD you have has a 2530mah.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deus_eps_machina:
i bought it here in Canada just today...

Fantastic battery life on LTE, i will know more tomorrow on a full day of use.

the build quality is incredible. I have had mainly Nexus devices with the odd HTC One X...nothing touches this in terms of build quality and overall solid feel.

ICS...its ICS. Having used JB on the GNexus the last several months its hard to take a step down to jittery old ICS. Like you wouldnt know it if you hadnt played with JB, but ICS lags!

The screen, out of the box, is great and doesnt require a lot of colour tweaks.

Aside from that, love it.

Hopefully this will get a root (its officially supported by Moto in its bootloader unlock program) and i can get CM10 or something on this ASAP

Any questions? I will try to answer them as best i can.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zongamin:
I went to try out the Note II in store today - and couldn't believe how laggy it was... I have the Original Note, which feels much faster in comparison.

I noticed lag on

Home Screen - jerky movement

App Drawer - jerky again

Gallery - Took 10 seconds to open, very jerky scroll

Home Button - 3 or 4 seconds to return to home

My note doesn't lag on any of these, even with the new 3D Gallery app.

This was in the UK, O2 store. I even tried it on two display models and they were just as bad

I reminded me of the horrible lag I used to get on the old Galaxy S with 2.2

Anyone else noticed this?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChodTheWacko:
I have 245 apps installed on my Note 2 and it screams.

I showed to one of my coworkers, who has the S3, and he was commenting on how much faster it was than his phone.

So I'm not sure what the problem is there. Some sort of horrible bloatware?

I'd also recommend people reboot the device if possible when testing it in stores..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrej201:
maybe it had all those app runing in the background since most ppl never close them
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] americasteam:
Mods please close this thread. The Note 2 is the smoothest phone I have ever held. A pure joy to use.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoYas:
I have close to 150+ apps and widgets on my home screen and I have yet to experience what you are talking about.

But again in stores everyone mess around with a phone and God knows what they do it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daz_2000:
Not sure why the thread would need to be closed. The Op was simply asking a question based on his experience in a store. Some people need to relax!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4rryTipp3r:
I agree, some people take things a little to close to heart. But anyway in reply to the OP, I think that it was most likely because of everyone that uses the phone that goes through the store. I guarantee that thing has so many apps running in the background. If you go again, I say try to reboot it, and if you can't do that, try and close out as many apps as possible.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Obvious troll thread imo or the OP is a typical iPhone user in wich case he is not to blame as iPhones prevent you from using your brain ;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinsago:
In defense of the OP I would say that I have noticed a very occasional lag once or twice when something has been running. For example running the premium version of printer share caused a massive drain on resources including battery and caused my device to hiccup. Also, I have noticed slowdowns with s-planner and netflix - both have frozen on me forcing at the least a force-close of the app and once a force reboot.

So, before too many people start jumping on the 'It's a troll, run for the hills' bandwagon, perhaps take a minute to realise that the stock device, while being simply awesome, fast, smooth and generally amazing is not completely bug free.

Just a thought.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinsago:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmob101:
I had the same experience in the Vodafone store, the note 2 on display almost came to a halt. I tried holding down the home button to see if there were many apps running but it wouldn't even bring up the task manager. Now I KNOW the note 2 is a beast but an 'average' consumer might have been put off by it.

I still can't make my mind up between this and the S3 LTE version that also comes with 2GB RAM.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Oh come on guys, these in store demo unist are left on for days and days and days without reboot, people mess around with them all day, they are a prime example of a phone at its worse, ram usage will be high, apps won't have been closed properly or at all etc etc.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Telomeresis:
Dude, turn off Power Saving mode.

-_-
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreepyDroid:
I use my phone most of the time with power saving mode, I have about 100 apps and my free ram is about 100Mo and I'm yet to experience any lag at all.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Telomeresis:
Good for you. Unfortunately, the OP doesn't see it that way. Either that, or what you deem as "lag free" is considered to be laggy by others.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fkofilee:
I agree as i tried the note II when it came out and i was like.... er..... oooooo... thats bad.... but then being an XDA member ^__^, i did all my usual inspections... found every single app was running on the phone and there was almost no RAM left.

I got my one i might add and quite the opposite ;), the one in store had demo software on it :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] questionmark:
Well first time I post on this forum. Not sure why some people are so quick to flame on these kind of questions...gtab 8.9 7.7 was more cool sorry to say but gnote 2 is so much better if it can be compared :). We love our gnote 2 and would wish people to come to it...not only the expert but all because that device deserve it. Sure you can reboot...but it should not be like win98...sure some apps are bugy ie got news 360 using 50% cpu the last 2 days for ever...rebooted but came again...today it seems fine they might have changed something on there server then fix... all I say here is sure we know about all these issues but should we not be helpfull to people instead of flag them as troll ... why should we make this device and android device a device for elits only?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gr4ndm4st3r_bl4ck:
OP is obviously an agent of the iSheep Special Trolling Division. ( iSTD from now on [ reminds of a disease too] ).

Note 2 is obviously the fastest device around so the iSTD agent feels his iPhone 3G is threatened somehow.

Anyway, all but one of his points are moot , Note 2 does actually delay when pressing the Home button , but not because of lag, but because of the fact that it waits a bit for a second click as a shortcut to S Voice. That can easily be turned off in S Voice app itself, by going to Settings and un-ticking the "Open via Home Key" setting. You get the ultra-smooth Home key. True story

iSTD agent should go do some missions in the various iPhone forums, or give some consulting to his superiors about fixing the maps in iOS, else he may end up in a river instead of an airport. also true story
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinsago:
WOW! I am surprised how many senior members are spitting their dummies out over this. The OP wasn't trying to compare the Note 2 to an iphone - the original note was mentioned. Also, as several people (myself included) have pointed out, demo units can be slow because of the crap on them and some software can misbehave and cause lag, lockups etc. The OP simply stated that having tried a demo in a shop it seemed laggy compared to an existing device. Where is the harm in this?????

For the people who are offended by the thought that the Note 2 is not the device of the gods which runs on stardust and reacts using amazing psychic powers then think again. The G Note 2 is an amazing phone but is bound by universal truths such as crappy software can suck, demo units are slow and people make mistakes!!!!!

Breathe.

It really winds me up to see people being called iSheep (et al) simply because they don't agree that every device with a little green robot runs flawlessly from the moment it leaves the factory.This simply is not true.

Breathe again.

Anyway, to summarise - it would be nice if, for a change, people on this forum would remember that we come here to help others, discuss new ideas and generally enjoy the wonder that is the smart phone. People also come here looking for news and reviews on new devices to see whether they should buy one or not. I know I do!!!! I'm not saying this about every XDA member - just the few who seem to think that everyone who doesn't agree exactly with them is worshipping at the altar of iFruit.

Finally, for those who think that I am an apple/jobs/cook lover for defending the OP - just don't.

And Relax.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] americasteam:
I'm not uptight at all. I wasn't disrespectful, and I could care less what the Op thinks about this device. I've seen 1,00,000,000,287,973 threads just like this one here on XDA. I could see where it was headed. All end the same way. Bad. :(
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gr4ndm4st3r_bl4ck:
Ummm I don't know where you come from, but XDA is actually a developers forum ( xda-developers, DUH!) , not a chit-chat section for people to complain about ****.

This is a Q and A subforum , and OP didn't ask for help on anything nor did he say anything useful that would help other members, therefore his thread is useless, worthless, and unneeded. There are many forums around the web which he can visit and complain about stuff, not that anyone is obliged to actually give a ****. That said, no matter how much days or weeks a demo unit runs, no matter how many apps it runs , it simply can't lag the way the OP described. Therefore we come to a conclusion he is an Apple fanboy that just came to spill hate around , or he's lying about actually having/using a Note II.

If the OP wrote : "People , I am wondering can anyone explain why the demo unit in a store nearby is feeling a bit laggy to me?", everyone would answer nicely, but writing "I used Note II , it's ****ty and laggy and jerky" like it was a fact is pure simple trolling.

A successful troll btw, judging from the number of comments.

EDIT : no disrespect meant to anyone ofc

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dexter_nlb:
do you really believe that a mobile in a shop represent the true feeling of a untouched mobile, you open and use? wonder how many downloaded and installed or maybe even removed something they should not atttempt to remove.

gn2 is fast as it can be, even at 1.8Ghz , if you believe the shopping experience, you are one of the few shoppers with your eyes and not what you can experience from the 100s reviewing it and already owning the device and reporting the success of it.

ive tried a personal clean install of OneX,LG o4x and now gn2. so far its a huge success, and laggy is something you happen to see if you are getting too slow for gn2 and you do not respond quickly enough, you start lagging badly, but a human error nothing else. remember there are limits to what your eyes can observe both in speed and detail, and the diisplay is closing in on dpi/ppi you cannot even see because of the great detail.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zongamin:
Its not just that - I was comparing it directly with my own Note. I held it side by side and tested them both. My old Note (running CleanNote and SpeedMod Kernel) was clearly faster in everything I had the time to test.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zongamin:
Well its first time I've seen the Note 2 in real life so I went ahead and tested it.

I then decided to ASK the kind users of xda what their experience was, only to be met with moronic abuse and accusations of trolling.

It seems that behind the petty name calling people are telling me the NO, the Note 2 does not lag - so yes, I DO value the experience of other users which is why I asked the question.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say about the lag - are you suggesting that its my EYEs that are laggy? Please, don't be so silly.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zongamin:
Oh dear

I asked a few questions about why the Note 2 in the store seems slower than my 'old' Note and you think its trolling, then resort to moronic iOS related insults.

Go away.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zongamin:

Tomorrow is saturday

Go back to the shop.

Don't know if you are allowed to do a factory reset... If you can do else ask the shop to do... Then play with it.

From my experience with it for now a full week it is impossible you will regret it... That is what people try to tell you some in a strong way. I don't know note 1 but hown gtab 7.7 and that device blows it away (just by specs) though 7.7 screen is Imo lovely but gnote2 even more... it should blow away your Gnote 1 too.

Not a Samsung rep here but the general concensus including my own humble opinion is that the device is just amazing... I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do
