It was a sligtly over cast day here in london. I'll try to post some low light and night time shots. Possibly next weekend.

I'll also do the same with S4 when my girl gets it.

Sorry for individual post, I couldn't aggregate them. It wouldn't allow that.
[Xperia Z General] zodiac100:
no 11

I shot that picture with the exposure at 0.7. Was testing it, I should have shot that at default exposure too. I shot 10 and 12 too with higher exposure value so they look too whitish. My bad, Apologies.

Low light to follow and maybe night time next weekend if I get a few hours to waste on my own.
[Xperia Z General] redandwhitearmy:
Please share general settings that u are using.... also which mode etc... and stock app or any third party?
[Xperia Z General] zodiac100:
Settings for most pictures

Normal camera

Exposure - default

White balance - daylight

Focus - multi autofocus

ISO - Auto

Cleaned both lenses before taking pictures,

I took 10, 11, and 12 with exposure value between +0.3 and +0.7. Didn't really turn out well as expose was fine at default. Just testing things out.

Also don't point and shoot with the Zs camera, point, wait, see it focus, then shoot.

The iPhone's focusing is such that it can point and shoot happily but the Z prepares the image for processing before you take the picture. Give a couple of seconds before pressing the shutter button. It's a question of timing I suppose.

[Xperia Z General] zodiac100:
Independent? You've got to be kidding. The tech sites have become commercialized to a ridiculous extent. You just can't trust anything you see, or hear from them.

They've been mostly corrupted by Apple and Samsung with those aligned with Apple now falling in behind HTC.

The old guard, Nokia and Sony don't play by the same dishonest rules and so will never fair well with these sites. They'll either have to start coughing up back channel donations or put out tech that just cannot be criticised in anyway.

They always overlook the faults on Apple and Samsung devices depending on which side their on with the Apple crowd doing the same for HTC devices.

On the other hand, they seem to dwell a lot on the faults or flaws of other brands outside that network of deception and in many cases glaze over the strengths of the Nokia's and Sony devices. It's just how it is. Tech sites don't have a shred of credibility left in them as far as I'm concerned. To many half truths, exaggerations, and in some cases bare faced lies told in their reviews. Forget the tech sites, that's my advice.

Hi I am currently on a custom rom based on ICS. Since installing the custom rom I cannot connect my device to PC companion. Before rooting I backed up my contacts and other files. Its essential that I get the back up loaded on to my phone. I cannot flash the stock rom because my device wont stay in flash mode for long enough to flash. This means I cannot get my data and sync with Google Drive then go back to my rom. Any ideas on what I can do? I've searched for dbk un packers but no luck.

Thanks

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tesh94:
My brother's galaxy note have been facing serious sod problems since he bought the phone at Nov 2012. After he faced it the 1st time , he sent to SC and got it back. After 1-2months the problem came again and he asked for my help. I persume it was because the malaysian firmware of the ICS was somewhat unstable from what i read from forums here and there. So i changed the firmware to JB duno from which country when it came out in MAC. After a week or so. The problem reappeared . So I just decided to root and chnge the kernel and also the ROM. Changed the ROM to a stock rom and a kernel. Still the problem persist. I'm out of options. Went to the ****ty SC and the idiots just factory reset the phone and give u back. BUNCH OF RETAR*S . (sorry for my languange)

Hope someone here may help me out with my problem. Thanks a million :good:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philliplavelle:
Hi All,

Just wondered if anybody is seeing really poor battery life on their S4?

Granted, this is the first charge and I know Android devices tend to need a couple to settle in but my battery seems to be draining like God knows what.

I came from a HTC One which was pretty poor - but the S4 battery just seems to be pouring battery juice out. I'm using the I9505 on EE in the UK. I've been on wifi the entire time, though with a very low signal.

Don't know what Samsung Link is but that seems to be having a particular impact. I wonder if I have a fault? I assume Google Services is Gmail etc - although I thought that would show up as Google Sync or something.

I do have most of the gimmicky features disabled - other than the one where I can wave my hand over the lockscreen to see what notifications I have. Power saving mode is enabled and screen is on auto with the maximum set to a fairly low level.

Would be grateful for your thoughts.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shug69:
First thing is you have a truly awful network signal.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fade2green514:
Its probably fine. I let my phones die 3 times when I get them , sometimes they sit at 1% for 2 hours or more, so that will give the phone a better estimation of its battery usage and such.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philliplavelle:
Thanks folks.

Yes, the signal is bad but the drain was the same at home where I had a full signal and wifi connected.

Do you know how to disable Samsung Link or this Google Services thing?

Cheers

Had mine run GLBenchmark when I was laying down in bed. Found it still on around 7 hours later, the screen still on (after I realized I fell asleep), and was around 10%.

I have an excellent network & wifi signal. I've noticed the terrible battery, but I'm pretty sure mine is from constant use & such. Under these circumstances, I think my Droid X's battery lasted longer than this :/
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
From screenshots you can clearly see that Goggle Services and Samsung Link are eating your battery... ;)

Keep AutoSync and Google Now - OFF

My phone have great battery life, lost 12% within 4hrs, 1hr screen ON, brightness up to 50%, WiFi ON all the time, average reception...

Google Services used only 2% and is on the bottom of the list, NO sign of Samsung Link on my stats so you must have some apps running in background...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philliplavelle:
Forgive me for being stupid, but turning auto sync off stops my Gmail getting push and also the calendar syncing, doesn't it? There no way around that?

Google Now was already off. I only sync Google Mail, Calendar, Chrome and nothing else. All the others are left unticked.

I can't figure a way of turning that Samsung Link thing off - there is no option in the settings.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

Im trying to make my status bar at 240 DPI but when I do that there is this small gap between my window and the bar. Anyone knows how can I go about doing it?

Used: Xposed framework and per-app settings
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] earthtk:
No one knows?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] earthtk:
Regarding?

Don't tell me using the search function because I searched before asking.

Tried all settings but I couldn't get away the gap between my main window and the statusbar.

One of the solution was:

Settings

Storage settings

System UI

Android system

All changed to 240 DPI but there is still a gap

Does one of these exist? I have a cheap TPU S-line case from ebay that I bought when the phone was first released. It works with the QI charger but it does not keep the dust out of the ports.

I bought two cheapies off ebay to test if something a little thicker would work with the QI charger and so far nothing does. Seems that any case that covers ports are thick and may not work with the QI charger.

BTW its the Energizer charger, not the official Google one.

how about if i were to hose my note 8 and need to recover to complete stock. is there anything out yet for the US WIFI version? just wondering as i might wait untill i root, install recovery etc...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] glockman4519:
I am downloading the UK version as per the suggestions in a post on the first page to this thread. I was told it is the same.I hosed mine trying the multi boot option on one of the dev threads, Cant get to my recovery so I'm kinda screwed.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
Now the only way you can hose your stock firmware is to mess up a flash, or purposefully delete system files in the root.

With that said, you can safely root with Saferoot.zip. It does not flash our change your counter. So a OTA or Kies update will work as if you never touched the device.

Now that you have rooted safely, you can install Xposed framework and it's modules... they will not hose your device as they are boot only system options.

I recommend Ti backup pro, and Solid Explorer but be careful about doing anything in root, as their may be irreparable consequences without a proper ROM.

Now for recovery with a replacement ROM. There will be a new ROM release soon, so when it does come out, it will be available to download. That will be your best option to recover if needed. Note... The only way you will hose a device is through a bad flash. So I would stay away from flashing any custom bootloaders, recoverys, kernels or ROM. Until you read up and are well educated on proper flashing techniques. All I can say is stick with developers threads on the specific model and have given plenty of info on the subject. Never blindly take chances.

As for recovery after saferoot.zip... as long as you never flash afterwards, you will never need triangle away, which is a plus... all you need to do is do a factory restore. Yep, no need to run any un-rooting tools, though you can use Supersu's clean up for reinstall and reboot if you want before doing the factory reset.

I know, I have done plenty of testing with custom and factory ROMs. I have personally found no need for customized bootloaders or roms, once I have found where and what to tweak. What little benefit from the customized options that are available, were too little for the trouble involved.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] glockman4519:
I actually posted about how to mod your device using Xposed installer and 2 to 3 modules and thats all you need to get that really cool custom look if thats what you are going for. With Gravity Box and HK Themer you can mod away semi safely. You still need to be careful with any mod that makes changes in system.
