[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
The sensor is same as the new iPhone yet and performance is like night and day. Google is not good with cameras software so this is probably as good as it gets.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lookitzjohnny:
i really hope they hire someone just for the software part. i know pictures can be so much better. Pictures with flash just seem to fail. if you dont seem to focus it.

For instance i went to a New years eve party, had a friend take pictures of me and a group of friends, she an iphone user just taps the snap button picture comes out really blurry from focus. she then makes fun of me, and how oh your phone sucks! i tell her hold down the button then let go and the flash seems to just stay on making the picture a blue hue overall. i dont want to have to tap to focus before each shot. one of the things that erks me when i want some quick snaps when im out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jds0912:
Had literally the exact same experience on nye. Sucks. Gonna try this lg camera app.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] torsin:
LG cameras good?

[/COLOR]I don't think so. Even I own it - just to be honest
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grayson73:
Which app takes better pictures, lgcamera or camera zoom?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electric0:
i hate how the camera has trouble focusing sometimes. i noticed you have to tap the screen where you the area of focus is first then it will lock and then you take the pic. holding the camera button results in the flash staying on rather than flashing which tends to wash out photos.

in low light, i dont see much of an improvement of photos over the gnex. there is a lot of noise in low light photos.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] torsin:
Camera Zoom FX takes brillant pictures, only thing missing is a panorama function.

So many add-on available (if you want).

It is really worth a try.

LGcamera - don´t know.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
Well my Nexus4 came today and my 2 year old HTC Desire HD is doing better pictures... very disappointed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kboya:
I'm pretty happy with this. All the pics I take are for fun. Not a big user in pubs n clubs, and more likely to screw up myself rather than it be the camera. By all accounts nexus is not the best, but that prize is usually held by Sony (Ericsson), especially at gigs and clubs.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
my pictures are noise only :S
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grayson73:
I tried the LG camera app and the pictures were worse than the stock app.

I found that to take good pictures, put your finger on the spot you want it to focus; then, when it is green, take the picture.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
That is exactly what I do.. I find the DHD picture to be less noisy, more detailed and the focus seems to cover more area too :S
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grayson73:
What is DHD? Are you talking about HDR?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Desire hd the phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
Maybe I have to change some settings? Also I see no difference between HDR and no HDR :o
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kboya:
Maybe you should post some of your pics on different stteings, and your analysis between them. It might be easier to get your point. You could also show similar with the dhd. Otherwise, this is guess work around ideas of noise.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
You are right, well here are the pictures:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iggys Pop:
I had a question in regard to the n4 camera myself, this looks as good a topic as any... I had a HTC Evo LTE through Sprint when it first came out. I was absolutely amazed with the camera quality, it had an 8mp camera as well with led flash, etc. I used it mainly to snap pictures of my then newborn son. The two things I was most impressed with were the extended aperture allowing more light into the lenses providing great quality in low light situations. The feature that stood out the most for me was the ultra low shutter delay in conjunction with the burst function allowing for multiple picture captures in a matter of seconds... Now that I've rambled enough it's time for my question...what is the shutter delay on the n4? I'm leaning toward a gs3 or another HTC due to the low shutter delay, the gs3 is equivalent to the EVO LTE in that it's practically instantaneous, what about the n4?? For that matter, anyone know about the lower HTC variations of the One X and EVO LTE such as the HTC V, etc? Thanks again guys for your input...

Try in boot loader you are able to connect to USB Fastboot , if yes then you can flsh a new rom with RUU . you can find in developement forum.

I suggest you to use RUU with 2.3.5.

Other people can also share VALID ideas about saving battery.

Will help many users.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ZordanKV:
Nice advises. I'm already using these. :)

One more good thing is turning mobile data off whenever you are not using it, also bluetooth, lowering brightness.

Good app for doing so is Power Toggles. You can always have widget on home screen and switch on/of these things with one tap.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] glava34:
Riiight.. Turn off autosync, disable 3G and wi-fi, dont use apps or games.. I might as well buy Nokia 3310..my phone lasts easily whole day with wifi on..with 3G it can get me at least 6-9h which is fine.. The key is to turn off 3G when you are on wifi and turn down brightness.. Everything else is not using your smartphone smart..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] apkfox:
1) Set your network mode to 2G only if you're not using 3G/WCDMA

2) Manually set your operator in settings.

PS: After flashing one of firmwares I got a bug - battery is not charging to 100% while phone is ON. Only to 99% and not showing a message about fully charged battery... But when the phone is in off mode - it charges to 100%. Anyone knows how to fix this thing? :confused:

On Amoled-Displays it should help. Inverted Apps, too.

setCPU

i testet the new version of setCPU 3.0.9, deep sleep works perfectly.

If profiles are not used it exits and there is no use of RAM in both versions (But then you do not have the unique feature of auto switching profiles :)).

Is there another app with auto-switching?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheBlackWolf:
Actually no idea.

But other simple and best app for controlling CPU is NoFrills.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buffo1987:
But it has no profile-autoswitching, in fact no profiles at all. Voltage control Extreme has at least profiles, but without autoswitching. What is good about Voltage Control Lite/Extreme is that it sets cpu setting with init.d and so the app does not have to start on boot

Yes that is nice...

[Galaxy S I9000 General] z3non:
Many thanks for the battery saving hints. I'll finally kick out the Task Killer App, doesn't really seem to do anything except creating problems ..

For the statement that Underclocking would help in saving battery I wouldn't fully agree. A slow cpu needs more time to complete a task before returning to a sleep state. Of course the battery drain is higher with a higher frequency (which also require higher voltages), but I believe, that there isn't much to gain on this front. As long as I don't see any profound evidence I'd even suspect, that an underlocked CPU overall could even cause more power consumption. You can also read more opinions about this in general in this thread.

Much more beneficial would be to identify those apps that cause frequent wakelocks. Does anybody have hints here, how to track down those 'bastards' ? (From my Linux I know 'powertop', does something similar exist for Android? (Or are the battery statistics in CM10 sufficient to decide which app to wipe?)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheBlackWolf:
Better battery stats is application useful for identifying partial wakelocks. ;)

Its an paid app, but Google helps... Lol :p

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Indium Indeed:
How much it is auto rotation feature evaluated to take battery?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheBlackWolf:
Auto rotation does not take too much battery but it always uses auto rotation sensor (accelerometer maybe). Turning off that sensor will help to save lil battery. :)
