[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endlesspt:
Hi there, Nexus 4 Owners

I just got my Nexus 4 a while ago, it is a great device, everything is perfect... except I notice my Nexus 4 screen is too sensitive.

The first time I noticed it is when I had it in my pant pocket, it was a bit tight, someone called me and I tried to pull the device out then I noticed the call has been rejected.

The next time after that, it opened Google Now while being pulled out. Then I tried to cover my finger with a piece of cloth and touched the screen, it was still responsive.

I thought it was cool, but lately it has became a problem for me as it occasionally reject, message or open google now when I pulled it out....

Even little vibration while riding on a bike can also cause it to open some apps if it got a call.

It became quite annoying, is there a way I can decrease its sensitive level?

I think your pants are too tight........
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SloMotion:
A screen protector can help with the sensitive issues
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuu~:
Well, the Nexus 4 is already one of the most insensitive phones out there and you really are the first person I've heard complaining that the Nexus 4's touchscreen is too sensitive.

Did you have that problem with other touchscreen phones too?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calanizzle:
Never had those problems at all, does it happen only when you wear jeans or what
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrozon:
You have to push the power button on the side, then slide the lockscreen open, then select and execute an action. And your PANTS do all this automatically???

Hi everyone!

I've had some time to play around with the Prototype of the BT Thermal Imaging Addon for Android phones.

The Hardware and Software was designed by XDA Member "Mardaso", you can read about the begiinigs of the project in this thread.

Mardaso kindly sent me a prototype and allowed me access to the latest beta app for testing purposes.

I will attempt to show you what this device can do.

First some facts:

The Far Infrared Sensor built into this device is a Melexis MLX90620 16x4 Pixel Thermopile Array. It is a low resolution and low cost sensor. Despite the low resolution it is actually quite useful, 64 FIR Pixels can show up leaks around Windows and doors, find cold and hot spots and let you find your dog in the dark, especially in winter when the warm-blooded creature shines like a beacon... ;)

A Model with two Sensors, doubling the resolution and giving you and aspect ratio of 16:8, is possible and might be available in the future. a trial run with a dual-sensor setup was succesful.

The device is currently powered by 3 AAA batteries, but newer prototypes work with 2 AAA batteries, making the unit smaller and lighter. The current revision uses BT 2.1, but the final device will be dual-mode BT with 4.0 support for future proofing and iPhone compatibility.

The Android App is currently pretty basic, offering Camera Overlay, framerates from 1-8Hz, Automatic or manual Temperature scales, Ironbow or RGB Color display and Screenshot capability.

I tested this with my Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.2.2 and it works quite well, a few bugs are still there, but they should be mostly solved by

the time this hits Google Play

So, let's look at some pictures:

This is the current Prototype device, it's size and shape are far from final. The black thing next to it is the pouch for my Nexus. I attached the Sensor to my Nexus with a piece of Pugoo pad, this works really well.

This is my dog in TI vision. The resolution is no good enough for details. but still quite impressive for such a low-priced sensor.

This shows the real usefulness. You can clearly see how much warmth is radiated out through the old, double glazed wooden windows. The Yellow area does not quite match the windows area, this is due to the fact, that the sensor is not perfectly aligned with the Nexus camera. This should improve in newer revisions of the sensor and app.

This is a new and well insulated house, plastic windows with triple glazing. Windows, door and wall are mostly the same temperature.

Here you can see, that deven in a well insulated house there are warm and cold spots. This is the same door you saw above, but from the inside. To make the temperature differences visible I had to set the max and min temperatures by hand. Difference from warmest to coldest spot are minimal.

Last image for today: My dog at night with thermal overlay.

OK, this is just a start and a first impression. I'm planning to do more pictures, for example of the inside of my PC.

If you've got special wishes or questions, just ask and I'll try to answer.

Thanks for reading, I look forward to hearing your opinions and suggestions!

UPDATE:

I finally had some time to do a few more tests.

This shows that the CPU cooler is a lot...cooler than the VC chips next to the CPU socket.

This shot shows the GPU producing plenty of heat despite being idle

The "traditional" HDD gets a bit warm while the SSD keeps it's cool (hard to see on the picture, I know)

The temperature stays a lot cooler than the GPU and the VCs though...

And last but not least, here you can see that the case fan does it's job and blows the hot air out of the back of the case.

I hope you liked this little preview-review. Sadly there have been no responses so far, if anyone has questions, don't be shy to ask... ;)
[General Accessories] Mardaso:
Thanks for the update!

See you having fun with the sensor.
[General Accessories] chnaideur:
Good work! I am currently trying to program my own interface with the MLX90620 but the 16Hz output doesn't look as good as yours - in fact, it's very noisy. Did you do some filtering or use a lower refresh-rate?

Also, how did you get the higher resolution? Interpolation?
[General Accessories] Mardaso:
@chnaideur:

I use 4Hz as a standard and 8Hz as a maximum at the moment.

The data is "noisy" because of the small temperature changes the sensor can detect.

In the last Android software I use a threshold between 0.5 to 1 degree Celsius to get a better picture.

Thus to filter out the noise.

The higher resolution is achieved by interpolation.
[General Accessories] got556:
I remember following this project a ways back. Glad its came to fruition. Keep up the great work guys. Very interested in this.....STILL :D
[General Accessories] vitamindee:
availability?

This is a great add on device. Are there any updates on its development or availability?
[General Accessories] CommanderROR:
Hi,

why don't you send a PM to mardaso, he has built several versions and is selling them in Europe. Last I heard he was working on a USB-OTG Version.

If you live in the US you could get one of the "IR-Blue" devices that were up on Kickstarter. They are made for iOS Devices, but there is a free app by mardaso on the Playstore that should work fine with them.
[General Questions and Answers] davelikestacos:
Just wondering if there is a SnowCover alternative for Android devices? SnowCover is an iPhone app/widget that puts the album artwork of your currently playing track on your lockscreen. There are a lot of skins for it and I really miss this.

Here's an example of what it does:

If there isn't SnowCover exactly, is there an Android version of something with the same capabilities?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nephin:
Hi folks.

I got the Nexus 4 a few days ago and I've noticed that the volume buttons do not work.

I've performed a factory reset but that didn't solve the problem.

Is there some setting I'm missing or do you think it's a hardware issue?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Encarma:
Mine was working fine until 2 days ago when i updated to stock 4.2.2 via OTA.

Performing nandroid restores from known working volume backups does not work (i tried 4.2.1 Stock, and Slim Mako ROM)

Performing new ROM installs does not work (i tried Slim Mako ROM, Motoblur ROM, CM10 and kfheaven) .

I only did a wipe data and cache, i should try wiping dalvik - though i dont see how it would help.

Any thoughts would be great
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nephin:
I contacted Google support yesterday by email but haven't heard back from them.

I got the phone on Saturday and updated to 4.2.2 straight away so I don't know if the volume buttons were working before the update.

I'll let you know what they say when they get back to me. If you find a solution before then please let me know.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finishure:
So now that there's 3 premium super user apps I figured I'd ask what's the proper way to uninstall and install a new one if I wanted to I also figured this would help noobs. The way I would do it is go into file explorer mount my system to R/O and delete the system in system app . then I would flash a new super user through recovery or adb. Now in not sure if anything would be lingering around that would come in conflict with a new SU so hopefully someone can help answer this. Thanks
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Surely the new ZIP package removes/replaces the old one with the new package (assuming they are the same name, of course)?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finishure:
Well I guess what I mean is going from SuperSu to clockworkmod su
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
The ZIP package remove any old versions before flashing the new one so you just flash the package in CWM/TWRP and you should be good to go...

#!/sbin/sh
# arg 1 is recovery api version, generally 3.
# arg 2 is the pipe fd, to the recovery binary.
# communicate with it using the recovery api.
# arg 3 is the zip file

DroidFroam

Version: 1.1
​

UPDATES:

- v1.1 (18/03/2013): Allow disabling data roaming

--------------

DroidFroam keeps data roaming always on.

It is a known problem from the Droid 3 that even if data roaming is set to enabled in settings, it will reset back to disabled after some time, showing the "data roaming is off" notification and you having to enable it again manually.

I'm using a small Spanish carrier that rents the network of another bigger carrier, so I'm on national roaming most of the time, and was sick of this problem. I had to re-enable data roaming maybe 30 times a day. So I made this little app to put an end to it!

How it works

The app listens to android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE. If you are not on WiFi and the network is roaming, it will enable data roaming whenever there is a connectivity change. It also allows you to manually enable and disable data roaming, useful with Minimoto as there is no interface for doing this in that ROM.

How to install

The app needs the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission, which is only available to system apps, so it needs to be installed as a system app.

If you have a rooted phone, the app will install itself as a system app on first launch (with your authorization of course). If not, you will have to install the zipped version via recovery (i.e. Safestrap), or you can copy it yourself with root explorer if you prefer.

I HAVE ONLY TESTED THE APP IN MY Droid 3 (XT862) WITH MINIMOTO 1.7. Let me know if it works for you!

This is my first android app so use under your own responsibility :D
[Motorola Droid 3] raymccoy:
Updated to version v1.1, now you can disable data roaming as well.
[Motorola Droid 3] roshandes:
hi.. it works on my micromax A110 (Canvas 2).

Query

I have a Motorola Atrix 2 model "EDISON" ME865 running stock Jellybean 4.1.2 with init.d support & rooted. I have read your disclaimers but can it cause serious harm of botching up my internet connectivity for good as it is a system app and mainly if it does cause issue is it possible to rollback to original settings simply by uninstalling the app?? I do have Nandroid but I do not want to do a restore for a small issue. Do reply as even I am fed up of this roaming settings issue. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] raymccoy:
Be sure to leave the app with the "force data roaming" setting to "disabled" before uninstalling, just in case. But it should be OK with just uninstalling.

In any case I think it doesn't work in Jellybean, only Gingerbread, but give it a try and let me know!
[Motorola Droid 3] RAD7:
Thanks for the reply and if you say it will roll back to original setting making sure to disable 'force data roaming' if uninstalled then it's ok but since you also mention it works only on GB I am afraid to experiment on JB. No offense but just being cautious. I will try to bump this to my phone developers too to see if they can work this in to JB. Thanks again.
[Motorola Droid 3] raymccoy:
Well according to [MENTION=4940943]roshandes[/MENTION] who just wrote a few posts before, it works in his Micromax A110 (Canvas 2). which comes with Jelly Bean, so it MIGHT work in Jelly Bean, just I have never personally tested it so I can't say first hand.

Let me know if it works for you! :)
[Motorola Droid 3] RAD7:
The canvas 2 is a ICS device and I was unsure if he updated to JB as it was not mentioned. I am tempted to give it a shot but am pensive that it should not screw up my internet connectivity or at least I should be able to revert to normal as before taking care of point mentioned by you while uninstalling. I will advise results when I go through the process. Is there something in particular that I can back up if I need to go back to original configuration?, Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] raymccoy:
You can always make a nandroid backup if you want to be extra safe
[Motorola Droid 3] RAD7:
Issue

I installed apk & gave it root access & to install as a system app and enabled force roaming but the tabs were non functional for enable roaming & disable roaming & now all of a sudden it wont open up and throws a message " com.cactilio.droidfroam has stopped. I cleared the setting in SuperSU and tried again but no luck. So supposedly since I was successful in enabling the 'force roaming' tab but the moment phone went in to roaming now the data got disabled and I went to normal system settings & enabled roaming and data works then. Now I cant even click the disable tab close 'force data roaming' before uninstalling as advised by you. Next steps??
[Motorola Droid 3] raymccoy:
Sorry i have been travelling and didn't have internet, just read this. You can just uninstall DroidFroam and restart your phone, it shouldn't mess with your data roaming settings anymore.
[Motorola Droid 3] oneclickit:
hello sir, can you please give me source code for enable data roaming?
[Motorola Droid 3] slvador:
can you please send the source code, or better, can you tell us if there is a specific file we can edit manually if we have root access to change that setting?

i want to enable data roaming, my phone doesnt have that option because sprint blocks that option unless i am activated on their network, but i am using a different carrier, so i cant get all the settings enabled. and i dont want fancy rom, so i am using a rooted stock rom since i know everything works (gps, wifi, bluetooth...etc)

so again, is there a way to either

A) force all configurations to be availing in the setting without sprint activation or prl update

B) change the enable disable of data roaming directly through editing a file
