[Nexus 4 Accessories] MrDarkKV:
Lets face it, the N4 doesn't have the best phone camera in the world, and its not helped by when you want to zoom in (as its digital zoom).

I've looked around on Google, but am yet to find one that's specificaly for the N4, or is compatible with it..

It would be a great add on accessory for all those amutar photographers who are on a bone crushing tight budget.

So if anyone has a zoom lens that's compatible with the N4 or is specifically for the N4 please let me know, thanks.:good:

The universal phone lenses found on eBay etc will work fine. They come with an adhesive metal ring which you stick around your camera lens, the attachable lenses are magnetic and attach to the metal ring

You can try one of these. This one says its for the note 2 but its universal. I have one like it but mine is a fisheye/wide angle lens and it works pretty good.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] mrjoeltan:
Photojojo. Look them up. I have their Fish eye lens, for 31$. I plan on getting the wide and macro lens, and i believe theres a zoom lens on their too. It's attached to your phone by a magnetic ring, and what's good about these rings, are that you don't have to glue them on. There's a stick adhesive on one side of the ring, which in the future if you don't want, you can remove easily. Good people at photojojo. If you want to order from them, give me a heads up and i can give you a 5$ off code which will make it 26. (:

Also, posting in the i9305 section for related questions, will make sure you are more likely to get the right responses
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nybs31:
Do you have the international S3? If you do then just make sure you flash a Rom from that section and not a U.S. version Rom. Read over the different rom's features and what works/doesn't work and choose the rom that you like the most. Don't worry, we all were afraid of rooting/romming our phones at first. But you have to start somewhere. Good luck.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] himorasi:
at last you should make a backup before flashing your first custom rom so heres step by step guide to make backup via cwm recovery

1.Get into recovery mode (cwm) by pressing volume up + power + home

2.Once in recovery mode scroll down to "backup and restore" using the volume keys to scroll and power button to select

3.Then select "Backup"

4.Let the phone make the backup (will take a couple of minutes)

5.Once you see "Backup is complete" the process is done and you can now reboot your phone

hit thanks if i helped;)

hi ppl!

i searched the forum as i think that question has already been answered, but couldn't find it.

as i own a mda1 and have a "car kit" for it (from brodit.se) i wanted to know if the serial/power connector of the mda2 is located exactly at the place as with mda1.

in short: can i use the sync cradle of the mda1 with mda2 and vice versa?

is the pin layout the same?

Ok SO I could not find a proper thread for this since there are SO many threads. The issue I'm having is I got a Samsung galaxy S III that was unlocked, and after I put my ATT sim into it I could recieve texts and calls but I could not recieve data. So I rooted it and applied clockwork with all my mods and figured I could find some setting that would fix it... well I was wrong. I tried global, GSM and LTE settings none of which would give me data. If there is anything anyone can do to help I would be more than appreciative.

You need to read more.

this phone only supports GSM with EDGE data.* This essentially means that you'll get 2G data speeds (unless you have a WiFi connection) because it doesn't support UMTS/HSPA+ which is required for international and U.S. 3G data. the 4G LTE frequency supported by this phone is only used in the U.S.* For those who don't know UMTS/HSPA+ is the 3G technology used by GSM carriers internationally (and used by AT&T and T-Mobile in the U.S.) which is different from the CDMA/EV-DO 3G technology used by Verizon and Sprint.*

This phone IS unlocked, that part is correct. But only for gsm carriers

If you are going to stick with AT&T, that is the way to go if you want to have data. No worries. Stupidity is only if you didn't learn anything. You had ignorance of the situation and now your don't. Do some research on any phone before you buy next time (especially if branded from another carrier). This can save you a lot of headaches as you have just learned.

Light Sleep Alarm Clock

I would like to share with you a free smart alarm clock / sleep tracker app that will try to wake you up in the best moment in the morning and improve the quality of your sleep.

Unlike other similar sleep-tracking apps like Sleep Time or Sleep as Android, which use the accelerometer to track your sleep, with this app you do not have to keep the phone on your bed or under your pillow while you are sleeping. Instead this app uses your phone’s microphone to monitor the smallest changes in the sound levels around it and tracks your sleep cycles this way. This allows you to leave your phone on your bedside table and not on your bed and still track your sleep patterns.

After waking you up, the app will show data about the duration and the quality of your sleep during the night including how much time you spent in bed and the actual sleeping duration as well as sleep efficiency percentage and a graphical representation of your sleep patterns. Historical data and statistics will also be provided in the next release of the app.

This clock also features desk dock integration that can start the alarm clock automatically when you put your phone on a dock for charging. Its user interface is clean and inspired by the ‘Metro’ design language introduced with Windows Phone 7.

Any comments or suggestions are welcome.

hd2 has no transmitter hardware, i did made a short research on this to make my hd2 transmit fm signal (e.g. on my car or at home). you need to diy one if you really want it.

for a quick info, i have an fm transmitter device on my old htc diamond II, opened the transmitter and found out there are 4 wire needed for the connection. 2 wires for power supply (+/-) and 2 wire for sound ((+/-). in fact, you can use just about any fm transmitter phone device as long as you can diy the proper wire connections.

the thing with hd2, though is not simple, because the hd2 headphone output wires (where the sound signal should come from) is separate from the power supply pins. this means you'll need to diy an external power supply to power up the fm transmitter, making it rather complicated.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
Having all those settings turned on will eat your battery. Are you using BT and GPS during this usage? If not, turn them off. Also regarding mediaserver, SoundCloud or other music streaming apps will engage mediaserver. When your done using said apps kill them from recents menu. Alternatively, you're rooted. I suggest you look into Greenify in the app store. you can select the apps to hibernate when not in use, it requires root.

Regarding BBS, look in settings, you may have something set up within the app thats making it reset.

Given that the battery is the same size as the s3, shouldn't it be able to keep up with it?
