Thanks. Just took some photos with it. Seems OK. There are tons of these HDR cameras. I've a few and going to do full test. The pics I've taken so far are nice and sharp. I've got my screen set to the LG setting which helps. Have to see what prints are like 10x8 is the test...

Yes, there is a lot of hdr cameras apk. But in this i dont turn the hdr on. I just set this configuration talked and i have a better picture than hdr, without shutter lag. In continuous focus is nearby zero shutter lag.

Trying the app. Thanks for this post

Thanks for sharing! I've just bought.

I never liked google stock camera apk. Neither its image quality. But I had not found any app that was simple and worth using as this one.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] SteveRiley:
Have you taken a look at the Focal beta? It used to be in CyanogenMod. Despite the negative reviews, it works flawlessly on my Nexus 4. The interface is clean, not cartoonish.

Er no thanks. I took one look at the photo, and they are the same except that the second one is over saturated. You can turn the first photo into the second one easily in Picasa using the vibrancy tool.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] maxbufa:
I know that i can do that with any pic editor like picasa, but i dont want waste time doing that. Moreover, this settings works for photo and video. :)

Excellent settings.. I can't recall since when i have got this camera app but didn't find much difference in image quality so never uses it. But with the settings defined by you.. M loving the result now. This second pic looks excellent. A little over saturated but definitely better than stock. Thank you maxy!
[General Questions and Answers] Robc65:
My son ended up setting a screen lock pin on my cell phone and 30 minutes later he brings me the phone and tells me he can't remember the pin. I read on the verizon website that if you enter the wrong pin 5 times there will be an option to unlock the phone using my google credentials. I don't see this prompt on my phone. It's a verizon S3 running Android 4.1 something. USB debugging is not turned on and the phone has not been rooted.

Does Android 4.1 not include the option to unlock using your gmail account?

I even called Verizon and they told me I should be seeing the prompt.

I saw a few apps on the play store that claim to be able to unlock your phone via USB connection, but they only work up to version 4.0.

Worst case I know I can factory reset the phone, but I have a lot of photos on my internal storage and also don't want to lose all my text messages. I have never done a backup unfortunately.....

Is there a way around this or am I screwed? ......

Thanks in advance

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielsinnema:
PROBLEM:​

Hi all,

I have had a problem with my Baseband version (XXXX) for a couple of months now.

I have posted a thread before about the same problem.

I thought I found the solution by flashing the stock ROM for my S3 mini, but there's still something that's not working.

So the problem is:

I can make Calls and send text messages on stock ROM ONLY. My mobile data is not working..

It also says: Baseband: XXXX

When I install a custom ROM (doesn't matter which one), I will not be able to make calls, send text message or use mobile data anymore. When I try to make a call it says: No Signal.

To make clear what I just said:

Stock ROM:

Calls & SMS: Working

Mobile Data: Not working

Any custom ROM:

Calls & SMS: Not working

Mobile Data: Not working

I don't know why Calls and SMS are only working on Stock ROM. (Baseband: XXXX).

I'm currently having stock rom, otherwise my phone is kind of useless.

How did this happen to me:

I have had this problem since I wiped everything in 'Mounts and Storage' in Clockworkmod Recovery.

I know this was really a stupid action.

But this can't be undone, so that's why I'm asking for help here.

I would really like to have mobile data back at first.

And it would also be nice if I can install custom ROMS again. (I don't like the laggy Stock ROM...)

Thanks for help in advance!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT:

SOLUTION:​

This worked for me, hopefully it will work for you as well!

1) Root your S3 Mini. (If you hadn't rooted it already)

Download a pre-rooted stock rom from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2122548

2) Download from the attached files ''Root Explorer v.3.1.4.apk'' and install it.

3) Download ''modemfs.tar'' from attached files below.

4) Extract the file, then copy the extracted file to your device. (Put it on internal or external storage, it doesn't matter).

5) Open Root Explorer, go to the ''modemfs'' file you have just put on your device.

6) Copy the ''modemfs'' folder and go to your root tab. Find the old ''modemfs'' folder and click on ''paste''.

If it promps to merge, click yes.

7) Now reboot device and your baseband should work properly.

Hi leather.face,

Thanks for your reply.

I downloaded the file and tried to paste it, but it didnt work: Permission denied.

Do I need to root my phone first?

I don't have the folders PERM and PROT, should I create them?

Do I have to flash nv.dat? Or copy and paste?

What should I exactly do?

I have a GT-I8190 device.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leather.face:
Hi ;) ... Ahhh okay you have not a pre-rooted stock rom on your device?! Okay ... You must flash a pre-rooted stock rom on your device and then ... You can extracted the NV.rar under this thread ... And you have flash before a rooted stock rom ... You have then also the right root permissions for the NV.DAT from the NV.rar ... Sorry for my english but I hope you understand what I mean?! :eek: :)

OK thanks,

I will try to find a pre-rooted stock ROM.

I found a list with pre-rooted stock ROMS: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2122548

I'm currently downloading I8190XXAMG4 4.1.2 (OXX multi-csc, PDA: I8190XXAMG4, CSC: I8190OXXAMH1) (thanks to tys0n) (This one had the same CSC).

I don't really know what I'm doing now exactly.

Once the download has finished I will flash the pre-rooted stock ROM.

I will install ES file explorer and hopefully I can give it root acces.

Then I will try to paste 'NV.dat' file into /modemfs/PERM/PROT

When I go into the folder modemfs, I dont see the folders 'PERM' and 'PROT', will that be a problem?

Do I have to create these folders?

Please help, I'm desperate..

By the way, I fully understood what you said, don't feel sorry for your English.

I'm glad someone is trying to help me.

If anyone else has other solutions, feel free to post!

Hi :) ... Your list with pre-rooted stock roms is okay ... I'm using the same page! I search the /modemfs/PERM/PROT folder on my nfc device with the root explorer and in this folder is the NV.DAT file ... But I have two more files in the /PERM/PROT folder and I'm not sure if you need the third files in the /PERM/PROT folder ... I still have the LABEP.CFG and the PPVALUES.DAT file in the /PERM/PROT folder!

Please make this:

1/ flash your pre-rooted stock rom via Odin and then,

2/ install a root file manager, no matter what, then

3/ search the /modemfs/PERM/PROT/ folder and you should not find this folder on your device then create manually the

4/ PERM and

5/ PROT folder with this permissions:

rwxr-xr-x

6/ the NV.DAT file in the PROT folder have this permissions:

rw-r-r

Hi leather.face,

The pre-rooted stock rom has just finished downloading.

Which file manager is the best? Which one should I use? ES file explorer is OK?

I don't know how to set the permissions manually. Could you please tell me more detailed how to set permissions?

I only know how to create the folder, I dont know how to set permissions.

Thanks in advance!

I'm going to flash the pre-rooted stock rom now.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leather.face:
Hi ;) ... My favourite root file manager is the root explorer ... But you can also use a different file manager ... Your question is good ... I don't know how to set the permissions manually ... With the root explorer I set the permissions as follows:

1/ I have a taskbar on the bottom bar and I type the + icon then

2/ I create a new folder and then,

3/ I press and hold on the folder ... I mean the new created folder and then,

4/ I can set manually my permissions for all folders that I like!

Hi,

I didn´t expect you would reply after you said you would sleep, so I´m sorry for responding lately.

Yes, I also see the other files, so I´m not missing files in these folders I think.

I think I´m missing files in other folders.

It seems that stock rom has... I don´t know how to explain... It has a file for ´signal for calls and sms´ integrated.

It is something that custom roms don´t have from itself.

I´m trying to find out what files I´m missing, actually I´m not even sure if that´s the problem.

Before I wiped everything at mounts and storage I never had this problem.

So that´s why I now think it´s a file that´s missing.

If you or someone else have other ideas, please tell me!

Thanks in advance!

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] golden-guy:
Hey,

I created an archive of my modemfs folder, copy this onto your device and extract on root level. It will overwrite your current modemfs folder with the one from the archive. No mobile data issues for me at all - I am using CM 10.2 on I8190 S3 Mini.

Do it with the "Terminal Emulator" app:

- Grant root perms by issuing: "su"

- Go to root folder level: "cd /"

- Enter the following command: "tar -xzvf /path/to/archive/modemfs.tar.gz" Obviously, this "/path/to/archive" has to be replaced with the actual location where you have placed the archive.

Good luck! :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielsinnema:

Question: Where should I put modemfs.tar.gz on my device?

And.. How will terminal emulator find that file?

Wouldn't it be easier to copy and replace using root explorer?

Greetz, Daniel
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] golden-guy:
Whatever works out best for you, mate. :) You can put the file on the sdcard anywhere, just make sure that you go to root level before extracting the archive as otherwise it will just create this folder within the folder you are currently in.

Edit: You could of course also extract this folder anywhere and afterwards copy it as root user over to "/" - it really does not make any big difference...

Can i just check which s3 mini variant this is for ( i presume i8190 only), as i have had issues with getting a working mobile network on my i8190n (had xxall6 baseband, but tried a few) baseband shows up in custom roms, but no mobile number + network (works fine on stock and dmod6)- i tried making a copy of my modemfs folder from dmod and copied + overwrote it into cm11, no change =[ ( i did have a thread on here somewhere, but i gave up in the end hoping a newer release would solve the issue)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] golden-guy:
Exactly, the archive has been created on a I8190, but these files have proven to work fine for EccTM: He had a very similar (if not the same) issue with his I8190N, check out his thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2514921 Btw, it should not break any NFC functionality of your N variant.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheephog:
Ok well some progress I think, after swapping out my modemfs for the one linked and rebooting the phone(cm11) I still get no signal but instead of showing my baseband (all3) it shows xxxx. But now it can pull my phone number from the sim card, which it didn't do before. And also shows 'no service - 3' on the lock screen. Also previously if i toggled flight mode on and off my signal bar would disappear completely until I rebooted the phone, this isn't happening now. I reflashed my modem update zip in recovery and nothing changed.

Anyhow I restored my full twrp backup and had the same issue in dmod6 (xxxx baseband). Copied across my modemfs backup again and I'm back to normal. Might try again this weekend, unfortunately can't afford to be without my phone for very long at the minute, expecting important calls :( thanks again for the help so far

THANK YOU for this solution! Has worked for me and save my Galaxy Ace 2 from the XXXX baseband problem (appeared after a downgrade from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4: This problem prevented me to use my 3G connection). I have tried a dozen of flash and other solutions but none of it worked except your!

However I had to do something more specific than you:

1. Followed the 7 steps here above: they fixed the baseband of my stock ROM (I8160XXNF2_I8160ONENG1), but after that I couldn't call, send sms or use data connection :eek:

2. Tried to install a custom ROM (4.4.4 AOSP for Galaxy Ace 2), but no changing

3. My mum has the phone as me (how lucky): with Root Explorer I have deleted all files in ''modemfs" directory in my phone; then copied the file from the second phone's "modemfs" folder in my phone (the two phone had the same custom ROM)

4. Finally copied and merged the fix ''modemfs.tar'' posted by you!

Now everything works perfectly!!! Thanks again.

Hi,

I am having huge problems with my HTC Shift X9500. The harddisk is not recognized, it is neither shown in BIOS nor in the Windows 7 Setup.

I already tested a new hdd and a new zif-cable.

Now at least the harddisk light is on when it boots.

Is there anything I can do?

Or do I have to install any drivers or whatever?

Thanks!
[Shift General] B-44:
one thing that may have occured: is the cable connected right´way? HD turned 180 degrees?

Drivers of course... how-tos allaround here...
[Shift General] Kingsized:
I tried every possible way to connect the harddisk. I mean drivers or any bios tricks to make sure that the harddisk is recognized.
[Shift General] B-44:
Did you try to restore your system to a previous state?

I lately came around to see my marvell card was "lost"

and no driver update helped/ was possible.

Went back four weeks, new original driver update - et voilá!

Maybe something similar.
[Shift General] Kingsized:
How can I do that? When system boots it says that I have to insert a proper boot media.

In Bios there is no harddisk shown in menu "Boot" and windows-setup also does not show a boot media.

Strange is that even Bios does not show the hd..
[Shift General] Kingsized:
Any new ideas? :(
[Shift General] B-44:
not really...

of course you could boot from USB

Question is if it doesn't show HDD just because Bootsectors are damaged,

or because of some physical damage in connection between HDD and motherboard.

You could take a usb-zif adaptor, connect it to a pc and take a look what happens here.
[Shift General] Kingsized:
I just ordered an usb adapter so that I can test it. Thanks for all your answers.
