[G2 General] katamari201:
I've seen this issue on so many LG phones now. Waiting for an update or worse, waiting for a third party to fix it, just simply terrible. How can something so blatantly wrong pass QA and be released, over and over and over again? If it was fixed on an older phone, why does a newer one have traces of it? Even if it doesn't have the problem on launch day firmware, I am really iffy about the rest of the phone's camera capabilities and phone features in general. Such a large corporation like LG continues to act like a small Chinese no-name phone knockoff operation with bad software that completely ruins the hardware.
[G2 General] vaxick:
Interesting, but considering every review unit is using beta software, I wouldn't jump to conclusions on this one.
[G2 General] MaxLG:
Use other camera apps

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I wait for an update of course.

But so far I use the beta focal.apk ( Play store)

It makes a total pieceful video! No breathing focus.

Try also Super camera or snap camera.
[G2 General] Howie Dub:
So this auto-focus breathing has been really bugging me and I've been testing practically every single camera/video recorder app out there. Finally found an app that I think works better than Focal. It's called, coincidentally, lgCamera.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCamera&hl=en

The thing with Focal is that you have to make sure you change your screen timeout before you use it. Otherwise, your screen will turn off while recording and mess it up. lgCamera, by default, has focus set to auto, but not continuous auto, which is what appears to cause auto-focus breathing. When I set focus to continuous mode in lgCamera, it does the same thing as the stock camera.

A couple of minor issues. First, everything is setup for landscape orientation, although videos appear to record in portrait as well, although pictures aren't (but using this more for video). Second, when returning from the gallery, you get a black screen, although switching back and forth with camera mode fixes that issue.

Hope this can tide people over until LG fixes this issue.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Jim diGriz:
I am trying to backup my Vodafone VPA (Magican) ROM as described in this Thread, but i seem to have a problem: I repeated the procedure five times. First the resulting files seemed to be identically but after opening them in a hex-editor the files are different from Position 0x034 to 0x17F. Is this normal? The file size is always 66847136 Bytes and the files match exactly except the 331 Bytes which are always different. Is there a solution? Or is it my fault? :?:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Jim diGriz:
Seems like noone else got this problem?????

I´ve used 3 different computers now, but problem still occurs.

Please help...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] iDG:
The first 416 (0x1a0) bytes of a rom backup are some kind of header:

0000: 4d 41 47 49 43 49 41 4e 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 |MAGICIAN |
0010: 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 |0000000000000000|
0020: 31 2e 30 30 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 |1.00 |
... somewhat random stuff ...

(radio rom)
0180: 48 54 43 53 36 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 33 30 |HTCS600000000030|
0190: 30 30 30 30 31 36 31 38 44 32 44 30 c2 ee 13 de |00001618D2D0....|

(os rom, including Ext_ROM)
0180: 48 54 43 53 41 30 30 34 30 30 30 30 30 33 46 43 |HTCSA004000003FC|
0190: 30 30 30 30 45 36 32 33 34 39 34 46 fe 03 00 ea |0000E623494F....|

At offset 0x180 you can see

'HTCS'

<start address, hex 8, bytes>

<length, hex, 8 bytes>

<checksum, hex, 8 bytes> (the ascii rapresentation of the dword at offset 0x0030)

The random stuff is probably something left inside the ram of the device before the dump, but i've never tried to change it... Ok, I tried: the bootloader will report "not allow update". The "random stuff" is probably not really random. I will disassemble the bootloader, sooner or later.

The dword at offset 0x019C is quite likely the first dword of the rom, as the last dword of the dump is 'HTCE'.

As far as I can tell, yes the contents between 0x0034 and 0x017f are supposed to change every time you dump any part of the rom.

[Networking] Rade486:
I have Telefunken TLF TPC 701 tablet running android 4.0.4 with OTG and Huawei E303 HSPA USB modem-dongle.

It is the HI link modem (It is probably the source of my problem)

Tablet supports this modem but problem is that it takes too long to connect to network. 2 min. and 20 sec. exactly !

Original port settings were: ^SETPORT:A1,A2;1,16,3,2,A1,A2

^SETPORT:A1: CDROM

^SETPORT:A2: SD

^SETPORT:1: MODEM

^SETPORT:2: PCUI

^SETPORT:3: DIAG

^SETPORT:16: NCM

And I changed it to:^SETPORT: ;1,2 so only modem and PCUI left.

I have noticed that when I turned NCM (NDIS) off , tablet still needed 2 min. and 20 sec to connect but only first time after powering on the tablet.

Next time I connect modem it takes only 30 sec to connect to network.

But after power off or even "sleep" mode tablet just seems to "forget" modem and settings, so again it needs 2 min and 20 sec to establish connection.

After plugin in the modem in folder dev/ , files ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1 and folder "USB" are created very fast.No problem there.

Modem is using ttyUSB0

I made some progress by disabling NDIS and I tried to disable PCUI too, but modem does not alow it.

Is there any way to disable PCUI port ?????

Any idea why it takes so long to connect the tablet to mobile network using this modem and why it "forgets" modem settings after power off or sleep mode????

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deusfaux:
phone only started doing this over the last couple months, used to be able to plug in (either charger / cable) and charge in AC mode without supervision.

Nowadays, it takes several plug in attempts to even START in AC mode, but typically it'll drop down to USB (the screen comes on momentarily when the change occurs) at some point in the charging.

Worst case scenario, it'll change rapidly back into AC and out, to the point where I can watch it on happen on the screen. That's rarer though.

It never changes INTO AC and stays there, to be clear. Always a downgrade to USB charging.

Is something wrong physically with the jack on the phone? I've never damaged the phone, dropped in water, etc.

If RMA is what's suggested as my only option - is that a brand new phone or refurbished?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deusfaux:
Can you link to your sources on this being a "known problem" ?

I'm pretty sure the same issue persists with my old Samsung charger too - the one supplied with the Galaxy Nexus. So.. that suggest the problem is with the phone, not the charger/cable.

I was/am having this issue as well. I typically charge my phone via car charger (works fine) or wireless, so I can get around this issue easily. Plugging it into the PC and enabling fast charge with franco's kernel works as well.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deusfaux:
do we have any more thoughts on this issue? is it a software bug? is it hardware? which hardware? I am going to experiement with a few different wall chargers and usb cables.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deusfaux:
so 3 chargers (Galaxy Nexus' , Nexus 4's, USB 3.0 port on PC) and 3 cables (likewise + cable from monoprice)

SEEM to yield the results, that the problem is the connection between the cable and the phone. The oldest and most used cable has the hardest time establishing and maintaining an AC connection, the newest/lest used one from monoprice has never had a problem, and the LG cable is in the middle.

Is this an issue of wear and tear on both the cable connectors and the phone's port? It's really lame the phone and it's cable are not even a year old and THAT can't stay charging at AC voltages.

Will a replacement phone from Google be a refurbished unit or brand new?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ziddey:
I've had issues with the microusb port on multiple phones in the past, and have definitely noticed the N4's socket getting looser.

On an old HTC sensation, I had to resolder the port on. Can you reproduce the behavior by applying slight pressure to the plug in various directions?

Does your connection also intermittently drop out when connected to a computer?

A workaround for the time being could be to use a kernel that allows you to force fast charging regardless of the detected charger. But at that rate, it's quite possible you'll lose your usb port altogether sometime in the future..

You could also enable adb over wireless, and check the charger type:

cat /sys/kernel/debug/msm_otg/chg_type

You should be seeing DCP (has the data pins connected, possibly with some resistance).

Or proprietary if you're using an Apple-compatible charger (has aspecific voltage on the data pins).

If you see SDP, it means it's in "USB" mode.

If it's staying DCP/proprietary but the charge rate is dropping to "USB," it means the phone is throttling down the current because it's detecting the charger can't deliver (voltage dropping below threshold).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deusfaux:
with the good cable (monoprice), wiggling has no effect.

with the poorest cable (samsung), wiggling will rapidly change it between AC / USB / nadda

with the LG cable, wiggling, will SOMETIMES have an effect. sometimes it's solid and will only become a flaky connection after it's been charging a while already

Hi,

I came across a developer called "EA Games Google" who is clearly trying to get information from not very tech savvy users by requesting heaps of permissions. Also it seems that developer is using names and images from well known apps and games.

Here's the market link:

And these are the permissions all these apps have:

This app has access to these permissions:

approximate location (network-based)

Your messages

Your social information

Is there a way to stop this dodgy developer? :confused:

So I installed:

IntelliDialer_Magician_T-Mobile_GER_RC20.CAB

and

IntelliPad_Magician_T-Mobile_GER_RC20.CAB
