So as I've seen progress on improving the video capabilities of the N4 on the developers part of XDA I guess the same principle could apply to still images?

The compression is set too high.

As for the video side, is there any chance we could see some test footage to see the difference from 12 Mbps to 20Mbps?

Oh and if you do can you just hold the camera still on a busy road or some other moving object of interest rather than jerking the phone around like you are in a Jason Bourne movie.
[Nexus 4 General] -Mindroid-:
It's not the same issue as the one with video compression.

This one relates to proper camera calibration.

The same XML file that describes video compression rates does indeed describe JPG compression as well.

So yes, Google uses 95% JPG compression for best images and you can change that to 100.

I did with no significant results.

Maybe this belongs in the Accessories subforum...

I'm seriously considering the N4, but like many others, am a bit concerned about the lack of microSD expandability (and yes, I've read ALL the pro & con arguments). Has anyone researched or used one of these WiFi-connected mobile storage alternatives? Objective opinions (I know that's asking a lot :p)?

Seagate Satellite

or

Airstash

Both seem to have their pluses and minuses (besides expense). Neither seems to enable WiFi pass-through routing, so you'd lose WiFi connectivity to the outside world while using these. Both are in the $150 range retail. Both would get around large cloud-based data xfers, so limited-speed or limited-size data plans wouldn't be an issue. Both could be used with other phones or WiFi tablets, as well.

Satellite -- Bigger size, but huge 500GB capacity. Has NTFS for large files. Can support multiple connections simultaneously.

Airstash -- Smaller size, uses (or reuses) removable SD cards, FAT32 filesystem limits file size to 4GB. SD/SDHC capacity to 32GB, SDXC cap. to 2TB (theoretically - good luck finding or affording a 2TB card)

Just asking...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidmarketuser:
Hmm my biggest concern is the price. If you pay 130$ for this drive you can just buy another phone.

Much much cheaper is USB OTG/USB2Go: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1966864

You can mount a USB drive like a stick (cable costs 3$) and can access the data. I think I would stick with this possibility.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arschend:
Good point. Also, it wouldn't require any extra power/recharging. If you can put up with occasionally having to plug-in a USB OTG and doing a bit of file swapping, it would be a MUCH cheaper option. If USB data xfer speeds are sufficient for streaming directly from an external USB-connected card, that could work, too. What's the USB 3.0 xfer speed spec?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidmarketuser:
Why would you need USB 3.0 to stream? There is a app called Nexus Media Importer, it can stream the files or someone told me that you can access the files easily with ES File Explorer.

I don't know how long the access time is but for larger files such as movies it would be great. If you are sitting in train or bus the usb cable shouldn't be annoying
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arschend:
You are connecting to your external storage via USB, right? I believe the N4 USB port is spec'ed as 3.0.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidmarketuser:
It isn't USB 3.0 port, compare these pictures:

http://www.engadget.com/photos/google-nexus-4-hands-on/#5395910

There you can see that you can insert our old microUSB cable.

The new one looks like this:

http://media.bestofmicro.com/USB3-SuperSpeed-external-storage,4-A-252874-13.jpg

Edit: So just look for an OTG cable, which you can buy everywhere on the internet (for 3-7€) and you need a drive like a usb stick.

Hard drives can be used but need external power supply.

I've read that most should work but there can always appear problems...

Primarily, I hate LG. I have ****ing Optimus 4X HD and I'm stuck with Android 4.0.3. I paid 500 euros at start,﻿ so it is very disappointing. Secondly, I have question about >4GB files (MKV files). I about month ago noticed way to put larger files than 4GB to my Nexus 7 or Optimus 4X HD, but I forget everything and I do not find thread. Maybe anyone can help with that? Thanks.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] babymatteo:
Your question doesn't make any sense. Maybe that's why you hate your 4X so much.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Winudert:
Android is using FAT32, so if you will try to copy 5GB file to your internal SD card, PC will say "**** off, man". So question is simple - how to copy 5-6GB file to my tablet or phone?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
Not possible on your internal memory AFAIK. You could do this to your external SD-Card if it is formatted as NTFS or EXT4 - assuming the 4X will support this configuration - if not then you will simply have to split your pr0n (I mean films) into smaller files, but 4GB is not a sensible size really for anything you are likely to be carrying around on your phone.

As for the whole "I paid 500 Euros and I am pi$$ed off - you paid for a phone with ICS. You were never promised JB, so you should have bought a phone based on value then, not future value if you did or didn't get an update to the operating system.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] babymatteo:
Ok now it makes sense. Unfortunately due to the fact that Android uses FAT32 it is only limited to less than 4gb's. I hate this as well because i have to downgrade my Bluray MKV's to .avi's or similar.

Hey there folks,

Gen 2 7"

Android 4.0.4

STOCK

I'm referring to the photo editing page that comes up when you take a screen shot. I play this live multiplayer game so during the game we like to capture trash talkin', wins, good kills, etc. The issue is that this splash-page/confirmation page comes up when I take a SC, then hangs the device for a good 3s which means I end up dieing as well, sigh.

My 8.9" lte tab never did that, the 10.1" gal tab gen 1 didn't do that, so I'm wondering if this is an ICS thing or...?

If there's a way to disable that and simply have the image filed normally in its folder (like how it used to be) without the need for further immediate editing, please help!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vanstrien:
Here's a potentially interesting one.

With the stock 1800 mA battery I would get 8-10 hours, so I bought a new battery. Not Samsung, but it got pretty good ratings on Amazon. The first run of that battery lasted 28 hours on a single charge. Subsequent charges only lasted 12-16 hours.

So I tried an older 1500 mA battery for a day, then switched back to the 1800 mA. I always get two days from the 1800 on the first time I start using it again, followed by 12-16 hours each time thereafter. Then I'll use the 1500 for a day, and then get two days from the 1800. I can repeat the cycle over and over.

To say it another way:

Day 1: 1500 mA battery gets 8 hours

Day 2: 1800 mA battery gets 48 hours

Day 4: 1800 mA battery gets 14 hours

Day 5: 1800 mA battery gets 14 hours

Day 6: 1500 mA battery gets 8 hours

Day 7: 1800 mA battery gets 48 hours

Day 9: 1800 mA battery gets 14 hours

Day 10: 1800 mA battery gets 14 hours

How is it that I can get two days from the 1800 only after using an 1500? If it is capable of two days, why doesn't it just work that way all the time?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
use bettbattstats and cpu spy.. there are so many different things that affect battery.. this is controversial.. but are you calibrating your batteries?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I think a lot of these weird battery behaviors are due to mobile network. Back on Gingerbread it always kept a steady line but since ICS now we get a lot of black. This behavior is not present on the GS3's ICS nor on my Evo3D running ICS. Both have steady lines. Also you have a big red line which doesn't look good I would think that means you had no service which can kill battery. I just keep rebooting my phone till I see that my percentage is going down slower then the last boot up. This phone is weird sometimes it's great on batt but most of the time it's not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
My battery life is only consistent when my use is consistent which is basically never. I have some things optimized for battery life and others for convenience. I have 2 extra batteries of different brands and just carry one with me now and don't worry. External charger is your friend, I rarely ever plug in to charge anymore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
I believe that 1500mA battery in your cycle is throwing things off. I use 2 1800mA and they give similar hours.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MykalDre:
yeah you can see right when the mobile data turned red his battery dropped twice as fast.

i suggest turning off your data whenever your not using it. especially 4g. seems to kill mine in mins.

also are you ics or jb?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vanstrien:
I'm running 4.0.4 - ICS. This is the stock Sprint, non-root.

I can tell you that my usage patterns are almost the same every weekday or every weekend. Monday through Friday my use is always low during work hours and then higher when I'm outside the office. Saturday and Sunday is equally predictable with about the same amount of usage.

The difference in the number of hours I get has nothing to do with usage, and strictly whether I had a smaller battery in the day before.

So I guess another way of saying it:

my phone/battery is quite capable of 48 hours of use on a single charge. I just have to have a day on the 1500 mA battery first

. Which makes me think that there is a reason that the phone isn't being smart battery consumption and it has nothing to do with my use. I use Better Battery Stats every day to keep an eye on things and I'm familiar with everything that runs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
How far down do you let it go before you charge? Do you let it run all the way out? On codename once mine hits 20 it often hovers for a while. Same when it drops down around 6 so I typically run mine down almost all the way.
