Hi all I just received the OTA for Android 4.4.2 so have put together a before and after comparing 4.4 to 4.4.2 for the Nexus 5 camera. Includes some full crop images and video capture as well as the all important autofocus test.

Very pleased with the results looks like Google have made big improvements all round to the camera.

[Nexus 5 General] Ben36:
You've obviously not tried the camcorder in dim light?
[Nexus 5 General] BoneXDA:
Thx for the vid man!

Why do you put a question mark at the end of a statement you clearly don't look for an answer to?
[Nexus 5 General] Ben36:
Because Google haven't made improvements, they've ballsed it up since 4.4!
[Nexus 5 General] ChongoDroid:
Maybe for you.. camcorder exposure is fine for me.

Stock 4.4.2 odexed
[Nexus 5 General] Sampson0420:
because it's what we call a rhetorical question....
[Nexus 5 General] androidizen:
I've tried it in dim light and find the noise to be ok, better than the S4 not as good as HTC One (to be expected)

ISO is ramping more aggressively in still images IMO but not a deal breaker, looks better than the S4 anyway.
[Nexus 5 General] xybur:
The screen is really, really dark in dim light. And the video itself is also really dark.

Case and point, i went to a bar with my girlfriend to eat something. I decided to record something using the camcorder, and well. I'll let the results speak for themselves. It looked like the lights were out in the place. I wish I had thought to take pictures, because it certainly wasn't as dark as the video would lead you to believe.

[Nexus 5 General] BoneXDA:
No it's not. A rhetorical question is still a form of question, "you've obviously not tried the camcorder in dim light" however is not, so the use of question mark is inappropriate? (See what I did there? <-- rhetorical question.)
[Nexus 5 General] androidizen:
Is that with the 4.4.2 or 4.4.1 update installed?
[Nexus 5 General] xybur:
I went 4.4->4.4.1->4.4.2

When I recorded that video, I used 4.4.1.

I tested later and had the same behavior in 4.4.2.
[Nexus 5 General] maxpower7:
I'm starting to think that we're all seeing the same thing and just coming up with different interpretations due to subjective differences. There's no other reason that everyone would be having such wildly different results using the same software and hardware.

All I know is that video recording on my phone in low light is MUCH, MUCH darker than it was on either 4.4 or 4.4.1. I wish I had taken some screenies before updating to show you.
[Nexus 5 General] haydonxda:
Are the results with 4.4 much better? This has really got to be on the edge of what the sensor can do in video so the results don't surprise me.
[Nexus 5 General] italia0101:
for anyone wondering about the dimmer picture in the video ,

i made a little example here

( dont have to download to view)

im not complaining , just showing what people are saying
[Nexus 5 General] xybur:
Uhh, actually I remember I have another low light recording that I did on 4.4 when I was in a restaurant. Very low ambient lighting. The test was more to see the image stabilization during recording, but the lighting was comparable to the bar.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwFhXib0pZk
[Nexus 5 General] haydonxda:
Those two videos have completely different lighting. If you took a light meter into those two places (restaurant vs bar) you'll find that the bar is really much darker.

I'm not saying that 4.4.1/2 isn't worse - just that these two videos don't make a good comparison.
[Nexus 5 General] xybur:
What's funny is that I had spotlighting right above my head (direct, LED bright lighting) IN the bar at the table I was sitting at, which would make it look like stage lighting.

But it looks as if it's horrendously dark in there and all of the ambient LED's look like christmas lights thanks to the recording and the contrast of light sources. Trust me when I say it was a lot brighter in the bar than the video would lead you to believe.
[Nexus 5 General] chronichemp:
My 4.4.2 pictures.
[Nexus 5 General] maramos:
That looks exactly like I would expect a video from a dimly lit bar to look.
[Nexus 5 General] xybur:
I didn't think to take any photos at the time, but the difference between the photo viewfinder mode and the camcorder mode was incredibly noticeable, very similar to the screen caps of the viewfinders posted in the 4.4.2 first thoughts thread.

Vid is fine in dim light, I am very happy with the improvements they made with the camera. Thanks Google "HUGS"
[Nexus 5 General] Keydogg1:
The thing that I have noticed is that although the video is certainly darker, the frame rate is silky smooth. That leads me to believe that Google have enforced an minimum shutter speed for video so that it doesn't compromise framerate.

Pretty good idea I reckon! I'd rather have a dark video (which is actually not a bad representation of reality, whereas the camera makes things brighter than they are) with silky smooth frame rate than a lighter one with crappy blurring everywhere.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 General] maxpower7:
The problem is that it *is* a bad representation of reality when you reach a certain threshold. Videos in low light are significantly dimmer with the 4.4.2 update than they were even on 4.4.1, and 4.4.1 had the same smooth framerate. It seems like the ISO ramps up waaaay too aggressively in 4.4.2 as ambient light decreases, almost on an exponential level.
[Nexus 5 General] Keydogg1:
I agree it needs to be a little brighter if possible. The ISO is definitely not the reason, ramping up the ISO makes it brighter (sensor is more sensitive to light) and also grainier, what we are experiencing is high shutter speed (which lets less light in) therefore the picture is dark.
[Nexus 5 General] BoneXDA:
They are actually enforcing a maximum shutter speed to meet 30fps. Maybe other apps do brighter (=higher ISO or lower framerate) in low light, try one of these:

But the camera and video are now visibly better...

[Nexus 5 General] DdragonPT:
I have alot of clipping noises on the silence parts of a recorded video. The problem existed in the 4.4.0 and persists in the 4.4.2, but the thing is, this problem only exists in the default cam recording application, since I tested recording with other apps in a silence ambience and it all worked correctly.

Does anyone know a fix for this?

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Xmoose:
Guys...I recently shared my Xboost Rom

And many Xperia E dual users have flashed it and are 100% satisfied..but for single SIM users,baseband bug is there..since I don't own a single SIM,and has the slowest 2g on the planet,I need help from Xperia e single SIM users to create a flashable baseband of ics firmware for Xperia E single..

Flashing baseband of dual won't work..so please..help me if u can
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] -Ric-:
problem is, there is no ICS for the single sim versions of Xperia E, they came out with jelly bean already.. and by the way, im sadly not using your rom because my bootloader is locked, i am however using 11.1.A.0.68 (the c1605 FTF) on Single sim Xperia E (c1505) and never had any network issues so far (using it since a month or so)

are you sure the problem comes from the baseband?

if its any help, i can extract the baseband files from the stock jelly bean FTF's and upload for you
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Xmoose:
Well I don't know buddy...

I too lost the network when I directly switched to my Rom..so I created baseband .ftf and flashed it...it worked got me and I got network..but single SIM users are not getting it..but now you are saying that the ics is working fine for your single SIM..well that's one piece of useful info...

THANKS BUDDY

I will start working on a solution as soon as my phones bootloader is unlocked again

I've locked it for warranty
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Xmoose:
Anyone else...any ideas?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] KDB223:
If all else fails, why not modify the ROM and upload a SS only version?

HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF I WAS OF ANY HELP :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Xmoose:
Well the problem is that I don't have broadband..its difficult for me to do all these in 2g network @29 kbps
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] -Ric-:
yes, problem would be to figure out what causes it i guess.. im still running the dual stock ICS on single sim Xperia E (1505) and no issues with network... could it be maybe cause of the custom recovery with CWM?

as you can see, i got network, no issues whatsoever.. :/

ps: the "Model Number c1605" is only because i didn't bother to edit the build.prop file, this IS the c1505 model
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Xmoose:
Buddy

I too had network error when I directly switched to this Rom from jellybean..I mean without flashing ics

So I created the baseband.ftf and flashed it..it works like a charm for dual users..but single users say that it doesn't...little weird but there is no difference between the 4 devices

C1505

C1504

C1604

C1605

Except the 04 version is quad band..even if that is the issue C1605 users have no prob..so I dunno what's going on..and as I already said,without the help of a ss user,I can't help you..
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Xmoose:
Thanks [MENTION=4837887]-Ric-[/MENTION]

Problem solved..

It was due to direct switching between the roms..if ics ftf is flashed before installing,everything works fine..even in single SIM..

hit the thanks if I helped...it means a lot to me...
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
Pure, sheer, total, amazing, awesomeness! Now all I need is an ICS FTF for the C1605.

Because any new emails etc are shoved in the OUTLOOK Inbox on the Exec. Fine. BUt hey! How if I want to reply directly off my Exec to these emails?. No, way Daddy!. Because oddly you cannot set up your Outlook Inbox to use your own ISP settings. No way, Ray. You have to use a separate made up Inbox which will use your POP 3 settings etc when you up and doonload .. so whats the use of that?.It means you have to copy and paste all the emails from the Outlook Inbox to MY MADE UP INBOX WITH MY ISP SETTINGS Inbox. So I put it you m'lud, why in the name of shi**ing crikey .. MS have overlooked the fact that their own Outlook Inbox on yer PDA cannot be linked to one's own ISP. Shurely shome mishtake?.

Simple question. If i get in trouble, can I:

Flash the PIT file alone? (Choose PIT, thick Re-Partition, Flash. Without PDA-PHONE-CSC)

Flash the PIT file with 1-Package (PDA+PHONE+CSC in 1 file) stock firmware? (Choose PIT, thick Re-Partition, choose PDA only, Flash)

Thank you ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
when you have problems and only flashing the firmware is possible, you can use PIT (to repartition) with the firmware (stock ROM) be it packed as 1 package or split into three files ( look here for guide) .

Is there any case where I shouldn't use the PIT file (Re-Partition), like, at all, because would risk a brick?

Like using it alone without loading the firmware in odin or something?

Just to make sure to avoid getting in troubles ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
samsung has ensured that you would not be able to flash PIT alone on all later versions of Odin3, it must go with something, so don't try to do it.

you do not need to use PIT in normal upgrades of firmware, its only needed when you have a problem with your ROM or you are downgrading from a custom ROM ( custom ROM's were not released by Samsung, so its not their firmware. )

[MENTION=4829883]elPicione[/MENTION]

Stock ROMs made for i9000 use the same partition size for the /system.

Many custom ROMs use different partition size, so when you downgrade to stock ROM you should always flash PIT file as well.

For flashing between stock ROMs you don't need PIT. Xsenman already wrote you correctly, I just accomplish the info.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elPicione:
Thank you guys, very informative! ;)

I will take this as a general advice for samsung devices, because I'm going to flash my GTab2 P5100 to CM10.1. So I will make sure to have a 1-Package firmware and the 16GB PIT to fire back in the tab, just in case something goes horribly wrong. Damn I was waiting for the 10.2, shame it didn't even get the RCs. :mad:

Final question (if someone has time to answer): while i was formatting the internal SD of the i9000(sdcard0), the latest CWM from CM10.2 asked me what filesystem to use. What's generally the default for internal SDs, FAT32 (so it can be written by Windows) or EXT4?

Thank you ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
Samsung uses rfs system format which is compatible with windows fat32, so default file sytem format will normally be in fat32 format for stock ROM's, custom ROM's are capable of reading ext4 format.

so its safer to format your SD card as fat 32, and when and if you flash custom ROM's it will be converted to ext4 format by the ROM.

Last time i downloaded a rom from sammobile (i9100) it was running arond 30kBps. I'm NOT joking, this is ridiculous. It took the whole night to get the thing.
