Hi,

Today while writing an essay at school I felt that my phone was very hot, but I wasn't using it. Also, when I checked my battery level before I started writing my essay it was 97%. When I finished after 1.5 hour, the percentage was 60%, with wifi and data turned off. I checked what was using so much and it was Google Play services. I have turned Google now and all that stuff. While writing this my phone got very hot again and I used another 8%. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Thanks

Hi,

As other people have noticed with their Z1, quality and sharpness seems to degrade when near the edge. Frankly, after some research, I found out this is the case with many cameras (including premium ones).

My questions are:

1. Does anyone else experience this corner softness?

2. Can this be fixed with a firmware update?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *R2D2*:
Yes, that´s the price you have to pay for a relatively large sensor with a large aperture lens.

No, you can correct distortion, vigneting etc. but you can´t magically make details appear that never have been recorded
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guybrush2099:
how can you correct distortion, exactly?

is it possible to get a straight horizon with post processing?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *R2D2*:
If you know the distortion-characteristics of your lens, then you can correct them. Almost any compact camera nowadays corrects distortion during processing, it is the only way to get small widangle-lenses usable. In earlier days, when image-processors weren´t powerful enough to provide distortion-correction you could hardly find a compact camera with a wideangle-equivalent of 35mm, nowadays below 30mm equivalent focal-length is usual, even as low as 24mm not uncommon. Yet todays lenses are smaller and have more zoom-range at the same time.

Depends what you mean with straight horizon. It is of course easily possible to rotate an image to get a straight horizon.

If you mean to straighten lines because of a tilted camera it gets more difficult. Because an image has no depth-information this only works well if all objects in your image are about the same distances, because different distances from the camera require different amounts of correction.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harfot:
That's why it should be done in the same manner as Panasonic does it on their Lumix cameras. If they promise/advertise a 12 MB pixel camera the sensor is 15 MB pixel - that is the only way to have sharp edges.

i have a lgms769 its the same as p769 but for metro i flashed the euro v20b a 2nd time and waited about an hour with wifi and data on and sent the command and boom it worked i screamed i was so happy and scared the sh*t out of my friend lol

but i think a key detail was that it came with v10b and i restored a v10d backup and on the kdz flasher it still showed my bin was 10b so i think a key point in flashing is still to have the original firmware on the phone without flashing a new one accept for the v20b kdz then it should work.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] LaDY Vengeance:
Hmmm. Good advice! So I may need to flash my phone with the ROM that it came with originally? But mine came with Jelly Bean.....and the tutorial says that it must have ICS first installed for it to work.

Is there a way to switch the bin I have with an ICS one? This is such a hot mess...lol.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] thasilenthacker:
i have no idea how it works really but for lgms769 v10b is 4.1.2 so its jellybean, you can make a nandroidbackup with recovery and then flash back the original firmware then root and install cwm and restore that latest firmware and when you go to flash the 20b kdz it should say android bin version:v10b in example for me it did, on the console of the lg flash tool.

you can try its worth a shot but that was the 2nd time i tried the v20b kdz flash cause like you might know from villans thread thanks to his villan pack crap i permanetely damaged my old phone so this was the replacement same exact phone but it unlocked :) so i was happy and i say kudos to villan.co
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] LaDY Vengeance:
So you had 4.1.2 then flashed to euro 20b? If that's the case, then it's not necessary to flash ICS. OMG.....:banghead:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illek46:
If you buy from the Play Store, you are paying full price (although a VERY good price) for an unsubsidized phone. But Sprint does not give you any break on the plan price, you still pay the same rate as the guy who got his N5 through Sprint for $49. So WHY stay with Sprint? Why not one of the much lower priced Sprint MVNO's? Just asking....:confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronwi2:
Good Reasons..

The $49 phone will likely be SIM-locked. In addition to getting the ability to use the phone on any GSM network in the world, this would likely increase the resale price in ebay when you get your next phone.

You will not pay the $36 activation with the Play Store phone, further reducing the differential.

Plus, in California, you would have to pay sales tax on the full Sprint retail price of $449, reducing the differential by another $9 or so.

You can buy an Iphone 5s at the subsidized price, never open the box, and sell it on ebay. You will get far more than the differential between the $149 and the $349.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkcarp94:
There is absolutely no evidence to support an idea that the Nexus 5 bought through Sprint is sim locked. As to the MVNO question is there an MVNO that has triband access to Sprint?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronwi2:
History often repeats. Sprint has never sold a phone that was SIM unlocked for US use. They have in the past sold some phones that were unlocked for internatioal use, but morw recently they have been sold locked for all GSM networks.

I would bet a signficant sum of money that it will be locked.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomeygun:
I did this yesterday. Bought a 32gig iphone 5c for $199. Walked in gamestop and got $582 for it... Net $382 profit for me to pay for my Nexus5 outright.

The guy at sprint when I was buying the 5c said the sprint Nexus5 will be locked to sprint only. I asked why the price difference for a less desirable phone? He was like, hey, I only work here... I would buy the Nex5 from google if you can afford it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illek46:
Ting and Ringplus currently offer access to Sprint LTE and both say they will support the Nexus 5 (unless Sprint vetoes it).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkcarp94:
Guys at the Sprint store have also said in recent days that you can't activiate a phone on Sprint unless it has a Sprint logo.

All I'm saying is Sprint appears to be a new ballgame under Softbank ownership. With the pressures from T-Mobile's new attitude and stodgy attitude of the big gorilla Verizon, don't assume anything about Sprint right now in my opinion.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrasLOHF:
There are already multiple threads with people getting Sprint SIMs for the Play Store version as well as news reports from reputable sites stating that the Play Store version can be activated on Sprint.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronwi2:
The real question is, how many people who lose their Sprint subsidized Nexus 5 will then pay $449 to Sprint (for a likely locked phone) instead of $349 to Google?

---------- Post added at 07:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

How did you get that price? Gamestop website says they will pay $378: http://www.gamestop.com/recommerce/...ducttitle=Apple+iPhone+5S+32GB+Sprint+-+A1453
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomeygun:
That link is the 5s, I bought the 5c:

http://www.gamestop.com/recommerce/...ducttitle=Apple+iPhone+5c+32GB+Sprint+-+A1456

Trade in is $448 (store credit), plus if you buy ANY used game(even one for a dollar).... they will give you 30% more for your trade in. 448 x 1.3 = $582.

Then you just use all that store credit for gift cards. I got all shell gas cards... I spend about 400/month in fuel, so its like pre-paying for my fuel, and using the funds I would have spent on fuel... for my nexus.

I even bought a few used 4s models off craigslist, met at sprint... then traded them in at gamestop for a profit same day.

Beware gamestop has google PLAY gift cards, but they cannot be used for hardware.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
Is that true? I thought activation charge was mandatory on every phone that hasn't ever been activated on Sprint's network
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafester:
This is not true. Only phones you buy from sprint or places representing sprint like best buy and radio shack have activation fees.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] got_killed:
Only reason I'm staying with Sprint is due to an employee discount. My second choice would be T-Mobile. Sprint reception in my area isn't really THAT bad. I don't ever get dropped calls. But, the data is slow as balls though, so that's kind of a disappointment. For some reason too, I keep having faith that Sprint will implement LTE in my area (Sacramento) which I've been receiving little bits of. I'm not looking forward to activating my Nexus, though.. Seems like it'll be a pain.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
I certainly hope you are right :) (Some of the Sprint reps usually have no idea what they are talking about).

In the past, I've bought unactivated phones from craigslist, and have had to pay activation fees (but they likely bought it from Sprint in the first place). Hopefully, Google play purchases are exempt from this charge. I'll update this post once I receive and activate my phone later this week.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mevensen:
I'll give you my two reasons:

1. Still on contract

2. Have Sprint Family Plan, so the economy does work out

Why stay on Sprint at all?

Sprint is the only carrier that has a tower in the perfect place to penetrate signal where I work (in basement level offices).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronwi2:
Perhaps you live in a state with no sales tax? I'm in California, so the $199 Iphone 5c is actually $271. However, the 30% bonus combined with buying some sort of stored value card is a great idea. Unfortunately, I don't drive a gasolin car, so the Shell cards won't work for me, I'll have to see what else they have in stock.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomeygun:
Yes and no, sales tax only on the amount spent - so like $12.

A friend of mine got all google play gift cards... and because you cant buy hardware with google play credit, he called and got a "one time" refund of his entire play balance in the form of a check. Boom, cash for his Nex5

Ps - got my nex5 yesterday. paranoid to even carry it without a case, still rocking the evo lte...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronwi2:
Good thing you did that when you did. Gamestop is showing only $250 trade in value for a Sprint 32 GB 5C now, which would be only $300 with the 30% bonus.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
Because the guy getting his N5 for $49 is joining Sprint as a new customer and porting his/her number to Sprint as well otherwise he is paying $149 not $49 and a $36 one time activation fee as well. Also, this person can only be a new customer once and not everytime. We were all new customers to a carrier at one time and got to benefit from the subsidy model at some point.

I'm not one to play the song and dance of bed-hopping from carrier to carrier every few months or thereabouts. Longetivity sometimes counts, in my case, counts for a lot. Been with the same carrier going on 14 yrs now. Guess what i pay including taxes, ~$58, i get 500 anytime, unlimited N/W @ 7pm, unlimited M2M, unlimited SMS/MMS, unlimited data 3G/LTE, roaming etc.

A plan like this would typically run double, and for the MVNO, you get rationed on the data (which still meets most people's needs anyway).

When new stuff comes out, i can either choose to re-up, get the subsidy price and continue with my plan, or buy the phone outright and continue with my plan. I'm usually never in a hurry to have the cool stuff on day one. For example, rather than re-up for a Note 2 at whatever the 2yr extension price was when it was all the rage (it still is :fingers-crossed: ), i just bought it off CList for 300 mint in box. Either way, in my case, i'm just peachy.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomeygun:
yeah saw that. Stopped my little business cold (buying on craiglist, selling to gamestop). Seems like someone got caught paying too much... hehe
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ggoomani:
I agree with your point and look forward to the day that I can break free and do a prepaid plan thru T-Mobile or other new options that have recently come up.

Others may have their own unique circumstances.

For me, I am stuck for a little over 1 year on a Sprint EPRP family plan that comes to an average of ~$43/line for 5 lines. This is not bad from a cost standpoint. However, I have also had bad service and coverage and incompetent help from their stores and call centers alike. I have a nexus 5 paper weight for now because their sim cards are out of stock without an ETA. So I am still reminded of how terrible it is to be with Sprint. I am using a 3 year old Samsung Epic (Wimax!) for now because like an idiot I sold my HTC One when the Nexus 5 was ready to ship. Nice move!

My plan is to use the nexus 5 to ride out the remainder of the contract and break everyone up into individual $30-$50 plans depending on their usage. Certainly, having unlimited data sounds great. But, most people's usage will be very low simply due to poor coverage and slow data speeds. Even though I want to abuse the unlimited data access... I am forced to use wifi when indoors because I cannot deal with 1x speeds that take 60 seconds for a web page to load. Its not even 3g level speeds.

This started out as an explanation for my need to stay with Sprint... But, I see now that it has evolved into a rant about how crappy it is to be stuck wit them. :p
