[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DAddYE:
Hi there,

first of all excuse me if the question was already posted but currently I'm unable to search: "Search is temporary unavailable".

I'm not satisfied about stock camera, I mean 50% of times takes great shots but most of times it fails, I tried "manual mode" but for fast shots I always missed the Moment.

Right now I'm using ProCapture, FV5, Camera Zoom FX

Here some shoots: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/x20hdehuizwewi5/8AWuFiitsu

Low lights:

Camera Zoom FX

FV-5

Stock App (manual)

Pro Capture

High Lights

Stock (Auto Mode)

Camera Zoom FX

Stock (Manual)

Pro capture

Notes

1. FV-5 has problems with touch to focus, can't get really the correct point you touch.

2. Camera Zoom FX has a nice steady stable shoot feature (configured with high, and .5 secs)

3. Manual was: iso auto, scene: none, stabilizer: no, metering: center, hdr: no

4. for all wide and 8mb (100% jpg quality, super fine quality (for apps that support that))

What about you? What camera app do you prefer? Settings?

I am not able to send sms on my note 3. When I try to send any message, it just shows 'sending' status and the message is not sent. One option I found is to clear the cache data from settings->application manager-> All-> Messages-> Clear data. Once this is done, all the messages that are stuck gets sent within few seconds. But after a while, same problem persists. Pls anyone with a permanent solution?

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Halo_003:
Note: I would have posted this in the developement forum as I've tried following both threads. (These: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2271909 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2128848). Everything works okay as far as CMD entries etc, and it boots up in fastboot, at which point KF First Aide says <waiting for device>, and the Kindle is just sitting on the fastboot logo. No errors or anything, it just sits there.

Holding power on the Kindle shuts it down, and it will boot up normally. But it doesn't look like flashing back to 7.2.3 is working, because it stills shows up as 7.4.6. (It is already rooted as well.)

Not really sure how to proceed from here, I'm trying to install CM10.2 on it ultimately.

Edit: Also, I did already make backups.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Sounds like the fastboot drivers aren't installing, once you see the fastboot logo, check the device manager for a device with a yellow triangle, if there is one its probably called tate-pvt or something like jem or otter2 then use the drivers in my signature by right clicking the device, hitting update drivers, and pointing it to where you extracted my drivers and once the the device is I stalled it should continue.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Halo_003:
Looks like that was it, it's working now. Now to install PAC Man ROM. :)

Thanks!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Halo_003:
Okay new problem.

"6. Wiped /sdcard, can't reboot from recovery: You thought you had the ROM file on the sdcard, but you didn't, and wiped everything, so without a ROM image, you can't boot into system.

Solution: Put the ROM file where your ADB binary is (usually inside platform-tools folder in Android SDK directory) and rename it rom.zip. On the device, boot into TWRP, select Advanced, then ADB Sideload. Connect device to PC. From here, run "adb" and hit Enter to check for your binary version, if it's anything lower than 1.0.3.0, you need to update the binaries by re-installing the latest Android SDK. Once the device is in sideloading mode and is connected to the PC, type "adb sideload rom.zip" and hit Enter. Now you'll find the ROM on the sdcard, flash, and you're done."

I'm at this issue, and when I run adb it opens a cmd window which does something(lots of text scrolls), and then goes away(cmd then closes.). So I can't type the command in. Any ideas?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Well adb is a command line tool, so if you want to use it you need to run it from a command prompt...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NapalmDawn:
You need to actually type command in your run box to open a dos prompt. THEN you can do the adb commands. Don't just try an adb command from your windows run box. It will run adb without modifiers, give you the help screen and then quit because windows thinks the program ran and completed.

There is no such command called sideload in some ADB versions. Here are the basic ADB commands.

You have to make sure the ADB you have knows what the sideload command is.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 4arm:
If I go to settings and stop all programs running(except task manager) The phone will not start. I have tried starting it from programs and using the phone button on the keypad and the little silver button at the back of the machine.

The only way to restart it is by soft resetting, when I do this there is only task manager running, the phone buttons work then so it aint a case of 'it has to be kept running' all the time.

any ideas?

4arm
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ArgyleMoss:
From my limited experience.

goto "Task Manager" in Programs to close down your running Programs but never close Phone.

I think everyone has this problem on the EXEC, if you close Phone in Task Manager you have to soft reset to get it back.

Or the best option would be to get Spb Pocket Plus and you will never need to use Task Manager as this software automatically closes applications, so you will never need to go to Task Manager and accidently close the Phone.

Hope this helps.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eden3319:
I bought the american version of the Nexus 5 even though I am on the middle east (for price reasons). Since the snapdragon 800 chip support all LTE bands techniclly speaking, could I activate certain ones to work for me through firmware or modem modification?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okgnew:
Not at the moment,

There are people who believe that it will never be possible due to RF hardware differences between EU and US models.

There are people who believe that a modem firmware hack might unlock some LTE bands in the future.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eden3319:

No the program is banned. Besides we already have most the LTE bands on 2 versions. If they could fit them all on they would have done. Maximum 7 LTE bands
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michelD:
What do you mean by "the program is banned"??

Yes indeed there are 2 versions, but I purched my nexus 5 when I was in US and I am now in Europe!

So you can easily understand my interest for this topic...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
1) never said there wasn't reason for your interest

2) it isn't possible to add European bands to US version. If it was, there would be no need for US version. Limitation on nexus 5 is physical. Maximum 7 bands.

3) the link you provided is for a program that is banned on XDA. You van tell that by reading the thread

Add 3G and LTE bands to your phone

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Its a limitation of the WTR1605L ref receiver. 7 bands. Actually this was the first (making the msm8974 the first) to be able to do 7. 5 was the previous Max, hence why there used to be a million versions of Samsung galaxy devices

http://www.anandtech.com/show/6541/the-state-of-qualcomms-modems-wtr1605-and-mdm9x25/2
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yes you can see on the box of the D820, what would appear to be 9 bands, but they all fall within the 7

However, since we have no solid documentation, we cannot still add dozens or even 1 carrier used-term. Its closed source.

Edit > but there is no real benefit to having a d820 and a d821 if they could get everything on the same die.

This case just came today. It's pretty good. Has a strap holder, credit card slots, what seems to be an sdcard holder, and a stylus slot on the outside right. And when you close it, it has a magnet at the top and bottom right corners to keep it closed. When you open it, the screen turns on. It has a pretty nice grippy leather feel to it. Feels like a premium case to me. No complaints. Just nice to finally have some protection and easier way of holding the G Pad.

[G Pad 8.3 Accessories] RobilarOCN:
I just ordered the Asuxtek from Amazon. I currently have the VOIA and like it. However there is no magnetic clamp to hold it shut when not in use.

The Asuxtek is the same as the Moko or ISVO in that it has a magnetic clasp. The clasp holds the tablet firmly shut (it is metal on metal).

I have the Moko version for my Samsung tablet and it is excellent.

It's also much cheaper ($20 shipped). Unfortunately it will likely take a month to be delivered which is why I grabbed the VOIA in the interim.
[G Pad 8.3 Accessories] thelaw.com:
I get the lip for these cases so that it presents a slight height differential between the glass and a surface. I bought the blue cover to match a white G Pad. I'd say that it extends maybe a few millimeters and at most between 1/8-1/16" probably closer to the latter. It doesn't block anything essential and allows you to place the gpad face down on a table without worrying about scratching on the screen (or screen protector.) I don't know why they didn't make them like the Nexus 7 flip covers. They look nice, the quality is reasonable and they are reasonably grippy yet not resistant to putting them in your pocket (if you have them that large.) While they are making a killing on these jelly cases, if you're want a thin case that will protect the corners and sides, this is the one for right now. Looking at the VOIA case hard case I noticed that the corners are not fully protected at all and I'm not fond of the lack of protection all around the sides of the unit. I have one of those soft cleaning cloths around it when I put it in a little bag.

[G Pad 8.3 Accessories] channeledbymodem:
I wish I'd seen this before I bought the IVSO case. While the IVSO case fits perfectly and is well-made, the "stand" function is a joke. I have a case similar to the Casewill for my Nook HD+ and while it's bulky, it is very protective and the stand works well.

This is a very good buy for $15 shipped. I may just buy it even though I don't need it.

Good to see more accessories coming on line. This one is probably a winner, albeit much chunkier than the far more expensive VOIA case.

I was about to order the IVSO case when I saw your post. That one looks interesting. It looks like it might be a little bulky, though, the way it folds over double when closed. I guess shipping is from China, so it's likely to take a while. When do expect to receive it?
[G Pad 8.3 Accessories] funnyclub:
It will prob take a few weeks to get to me but I'm not too bothered as I have a generic case on it at the moment. It's basically a case that has straps inside that adjusts to fit 7" to 10" tabs but it's to big and bulky!

With regards to the one I have ordered being bulky. I had one on a gen 1 nexus 7 as I said and while it was slightly bulky it offered a lor of protection and still fit in my back pocket of my jeans when walking around so not too bad bulk wise!
[G Pad 8.3 Accessories] woody1:
What are the problems with the stand function with the IVSO case? Does it fall over a lot? Also, I was wondering if the IVSO will stand up in portrait mode when the cover is rolled back.
[G Pad 8.3 Accessories] RobilarOCN:
The IVSO is the same maker as the Moko and Asuxtek. I have it for my Samsung. The magnet in the clasp is designed to grab at the back when folded in standing config. It does not work well at all.

It's a good case, nice looking slim fit, nice finish but don't expect to use it as a stand for watching video with any success.

Mind you, the $50 VOIA I just bought is not much better....
[G Pad 8.3 Accessories] channeledbymodem:
It will stand in portrait mode but not by design and very flimsily. By which I mean if you touched it, it would fall down. The folding cover is not strong enough to support the tablet in something like a 90 degree vertical angle. It is designed to just barely raise the device from flat to, say, a 20 degree angle. Since I don't think the photos on Amazon are altogether fake I guess it's possible that when the folds on the cover "break in" they might be more capable of supporting the tablet in the two different landscape modes shown.

Frankly I'm so delighted not to have to worry about the metal back being scratched and smudged or soiled that I feel I'm getting my money's worth. I don't think I'll ever buy another device with metal back. It interferes with wifi and is just generally a PITA: slippery and easily damaged. Thanks again Steve for making the original iPod the standard for "premium" builds.

Edit: please see the post above that describes how the magnet works to create a stand. I didn't know that and now I can see the how it can be more upright in landscape. It still won't stand up firmly in portrait.
