Did you go through best buy then? Darn! I didn't know they were still doing a $50 gift card! I didn't see that on their site anywhere... I purchased through Amazon...

I wonder if there is anyway to get them to match it....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bruiserman:
It was Best Buy. Apparently all you'd have to do is mention the $50 and they scan a gift card from behind the register. I asked if he needed to see anything or look up my email and he said no. When I signed up it said in the ad that the coupon lasted all year.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] scottndville:
When I got mine it was on sale for 99.00 they gave me a50 gift card and I got the free LG Bluetooth headset, value of 70$. ;):screwy::D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
It sucks because I tried to get my upgrade today, a week early, just to get this phone from Best Buy. Tomorrow it goes off sale at Best Buy, and I'm not sure how long it will be $50 on Amazon. If anyone has ordered a phone from Amazon, how is there warranty/protection service with phones. Only reason why I want to get this phone from Best Buy is due to the protection plan.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _Epic:
Best Buy will price match, so if it is still on sale with Amazon when your upgrade is up then just show them Amazon and they will price match.
[G Tablet General] p4ndiamond:
Hey guys i am new here. I have been searching awhile for the issue with Bluetooth audio streaming on these devices. I have a jvc Bluetooth head unit in my car. The biggest issue i have is that the tablet will freeze while streaming audio to it after about 10 minuets typically or when it goes to sleep on the screen .

I have tried everything including back to stock and new copies of the latest CM 7.2 but it persists in doing this. Is their any fix for this issue . its so annoying .
[G Tablet General] p4ndiamond:
Anywon ?
[G Tablet General] nobe1976:
If I recall correctly you can change the Display to stay on up to 30 mins on CM 7.x and also if you keep it connected with a charger that you can set the display to stay on while charging also. It has been awhile since I have been on Gingerbread, but those settings should be in there. What app are you using to play the music with? I tried streaming Pandora once on a 2.3 ROM and it seemed to have issues with it because of HW accelerators not being supported.
[G Tablet General] p4ndiamond:
For this I am using music folder player. I have also seen it happen with video softwares also . Basically the tablet will go unresponsive and crash the apps . if i break the connection sometimes it tries to come back . most times i have to shut it down by the button then come back up .
[G Tablet General] nobe1976:
Well it sounds like it is a wired issue. Hard to point out what actually is causing it since it plays normal until the tablet times out itself. Have you tried other ROMs?
[G Tablet General] p4ndiamond:
Well i dont think i have yet. But it does it aat random sometimes too. like if i go to change a song. .or if i touch the tablet sometimes it behaves like it crashes.
[G Tablet General] nobe1976:
It might just be the lack of HW accelerators that 2.3 doesn't have. Well it does have a form of them, but a hacked version to allow somethings to work, but not everything. Can you boot ICS or Jellybean on your tablet? Chances are that might work out even better for you or the other alternative is to downgrade to froyo based ROMs that have those HW.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guantanamo:
Hi all !!

From a few days ago, my phone is rebooting frequently by itself.

First, i thought that it was fault of new ROM i flashed, and then i've returned back to the ROM i used before, but the phone keeps rebooting randomly and frequently, i tried then some other ROMs, same thing.

After a few tries, i thought it was fault of my battery, i bought new one, result was good for first day, but after this first day of normal use without reboots, the phone reboots randomly again and frequently, so i'm now afraid, and don't know what i can do.

So, is there anything I can try to help me solve this problem ?!

Thanks in advance.

Hi there, for me it seemed to update via the Chinese app successfully (progress bar went to end, and green writing showed after), but I see no SuperSU app installed.

However, I do see the blue Chinese app installed (blue logo with silver object inside it).

Update:

(1) Installed Root Validator and a terminal emulator.

(2) Ran Root Validator test, and it shows a location for a superuser app /data/app/com.koushikdutta.superuser-1.apk

(3) However, when I try to access it via the terminal is says permission denied.

(4) Also according to Root Validator, the su binary is not found.

Go Clever 76.2 ROOT

Hi Guys,

i am in no way a developer, im a complete noob, i once did jailbreak on my sons ipod touch, thats the extent of my experience, however, we recently got him a Go Clever 76.2 tab, and 1 or 2 apps havent installed due to no root access, i tried one click rooting and it never worked, do you think the above mentioned method would work with this model, i only ask as i noticed one of the packages to d-load wasnt for his model, it is 7500 i think.., if you think i would be safer taking it to a shop or not botheering i will defer to your judgement, its just a bit of 'its there so i want to do it ' on my behalf !

Also, the drivers package to download as the pc wont recognize the device, well my pc does recognize it, it comes up in the device section, or is that something different ?

Sorry for being clueless , thanks for any advice :)

EDIT- After some more tinkering, the Android Composite ADB shows up in my device manager, but the chinese programme wont proceed, still waiting on the pic of tablet/option to root to appear

Hi friends. I really wasn't expecting for this tablet to be possible to root, very happy to see that it is!

I'm still very much a noob in rooting and things alike, so I hope I can get a bit of help. Thanks!

What About goClever Tab R104 ? Has Anyone Tested It On Other Devices ?
[Android General] EsEmDee:
I tried it for mine, and it probably would have worked (the rooting software), but the drivers aren't for my tablet, that's why it didn't. Now, where to get drivers that don't exist? (Seriously, I've looked and lookds, there are just NO drivers for the Terra 72 D:).

So if you don't have the drivers for your specific tablet, it will not work, at least I think it won't. You can just try it yourself.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jguithues:
Hi there, my Verizon Galaxy Nexus is giving me trouble.

Several weeks ago, a glass of water was spilled on it. I quickly removed the case and battery, wiped it off and set them somewhere dry. A week later, when I tried to turn it on, it almost booted right before turning back off. I tried the usual (battery pull, holding down volume buttons), it wouldn't turn on at all. Another week passes, and it boots. The camera app didn't work at first (force close upon opening), but a week or so later it started again, works fine and takes clear pictures.

My problem is that the USB port isn't detecting properly on my computer. I've replaced the USB port, and that didn't solve it. The old one also would not properly recognize when it became unplugged. Windows, however, does not show anything in My Computer or in Device Manager, no hardware detected sound or anything. My phone doesn't do anything either, nothing in the notification area (charges normally, however). ADB does not work while booted, only in recovery. Fastboot does work. How should I proceed? Thanks.

[Xperia Z General] caitsith01:
One other thing - what I would like to see Sony do to improve the camera so that users get the most out of it...

1. Dramatically reduce the default image processing in auto mode

2. Add a smart ISO setting, where the user can control the maximum ISO that the camera will select on "auto ISO". E.g. allow the user to set ISO800 as a cap, but have the camera use a lower setting if suitable for the conditions.

3. Add advanced options to allow the user to contol noise reduction and sharpening.

4. (In fantasy land) add a full manual mode.
[Xperia Z General] JPWOA:
What do you mean by "metering full scene"? Do you recomendo "multi-point automatic focus"?
[Xperia Z General] caitsith01:
No, that's focus mode (which I don't have strong views about - I prefer single point for more control, personally). I.e., the way in which the camera picks the subject which will be in focus.

I'm talking about exposure, i.e., how the camera works out how bright or dark the scene is. In "normal" mode, if you go to settings, then scroll down, you will see a metering option. The choices are centre, average or spot.

I'm suggesting that at night "average" will be most useful as "centre" or "spot" take a limited part of the image and base exposure on that. At night a limited part of the image is likely to be extremely dark or light, which will make the exposure go nuts.

During the day "centre" works ok for specific subjects, and average is good for evenly lit scenes.
[Xperia Z General] juanmaasecas:
Thank you very very very much for your review.

I'll own a Xperia Z in a few days and, since i'm into photography too, I was worried about the quality pics I've seen.

Did you try the burst mode? Have you seen the post about burst mode avoiding (almost) all postprocessing and daylight pics look awesome?

What do you think? Does normal mode avoid this kind of overprocessing in good light conditions?
[Xperia Z General] danw_oz:
Agreed on pretty much most of what you say, in addition other camera apps that allow you to save 100% jpg quality or save as png also help.

f2.4 not ultra fast hmmm, I am sure you do not have very many lenses in your arsenal that are faster for your camera. I know I only have one, my F1.2 50mm lens, the rest are f2.8 or F4, they have to do for me because they don't make any faster sir, and if one day they even did, I am telling you I could not afford them ;).

Apart from that some good information shared.

---------- Post added at 01:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ----------

Yes and no, because Sony are still processing the image to create the jpg files, and not saving at 100%. Think of RAW, I always shoot in RAW because then I am in control of the processing on the image WB,Sharpness,Brightness... not my camera.

Burst mode is great, because the Sony algorithms don't have time to apply all the settings to all the photos before they are written, so just pretty much write the file (like jpg in raw jpg). So a combo of all these things will significantly help further. To better this even further there are other camera apps that allow you to save at 100% jpg or even png for RAW like capture to a lesser extent
[Xperia Z General] caitsith01:
Actually I have a couple which are faster. For DSLR stuff f/1.4 and f/1.8 are only a couple of hundred bucks, and there are compacts available in that territory too.

For really solid low light performance at an acceptable ISO you really need something around f/2.0 or lower. Either that, or a better sensor which can produce minimal noise at ISO 1600.
[Xperia Z General] caitsith01:
I have seen that thread - in my opinion the burst pics look similar to those I have been able to achieve in normal mode, i.e., nice clean edges, not a lot of detail loss, not a lot of noise added by over-sharpening.

I imagine the reason is that the camera isn't fast enough to ruin... er... process pictures when shooting in burst mode. Burst mode has some resolution limitations, though, plus who wants 10 copies of every photo?

To be honest many of the daytime shots I've taken look pretty close to what you would expect from an enthusiast compact, like one of the Leica-Panasonic or Canon G-series cameras. Not quite there, but close (and obviously lacking optical zoom).
[Xperia Z General] Higgins12:
Well i don't know but i took some samples for a quick compare. Though even the BURST Mode pics are a bit smaller in size, they give you still the most detail and Pictures overall look much better. That's at least my impression.

1- Burst Mode

2- Snap Camera (PlayStore)

3- Supperior Auto

4- Normal Mode ISO 100

5- HDR Kamera (PlayStore)

Decide for yourself.
[Xperia Z General] danw_oz:
I am talk serious gear, not cheap 50mm lenses. And I didn't ask you if you could find cheap lenses, I asked you how many lenses you have faster than f2.4.

For solid low light performance, I would not be using a smart phone, nor would most others I am sure. Most people are using phones for snap shots nothing serious, or to capture that once off shot because you didn't have a better camera on hand.

Not any phones that I am aware of below f2.0 :)
[Xperia Z General] fartlec:
hi, thanks for your detailed explanation. i have one concern, though (just food for thoughts). you said that in superior auto applies more processing on the pictures. for what i've seen (and the examples provided by higgings are clear enough), the processing applies as well, but we have (dramatically) less colour shifting and probably less noise. the problem, to me, is still aliasing and lack of detail (if you compare in higgings pictures, burst mode, the door phone, you can clearly see the name plates, which isn't the case in the other pictures

anyway, good job, and thanks again
[Xperia Z General] sacredsoul:
Thanks for this really informative thread.

One question though. In normal mode, the viewfinder, ie the screen, is really dark. I could barely make out any details in a well lit room but when I take a picture, the image comes out well lit. Increasing the exposure to 2.0 helps but not a great deal. The screen looks fine and bright in superier auto though. My settings are the settings you recommended. ISO at 100 and flash, HDR off. Any idea what's the issue? I've included a couple of photos to better illustrate this. Note, the dark picture which is in normal mode is attempting to focus on the same object as the superior auto mode in the same lighting situation.
[Xperia Z General] CaFFeiNe666:
totally agree, most of all on superior auto...

normal mode, same photo,auto is 400 iso...manual iso 200 (just a little darker) superior auto 800/1600 iso

superior auto can be good only on daylight (difference between 40 and 100 is really small)
[Xperia Z General] caitsith01:
Hi

I think this is a flaw with the camera software. It happens on mine too. It is trying to guess what the image will look like at that ISO. So the slower you set the ISO, the darker the preview. However when you take the picture it does its best to get a good exposure and generally succeeds.

So basically not much you can do about this, but it does make it hard taking shots in very low light. Another thing Sony should fix!
