[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] mjs2011:
Ok that makes sense. Hmmm.....I think the big problem then would be to find a power source. My external only has the one USB port.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] bogypop:
Yes. You need external power (although, I have a 250GB drive from a 13" MacBook Pro which works with no external power) and you need .... root.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] mjs2011:
Ok thanks guys. I'll probably look at the Surface Pro 2 instead. I'm normally an Android fan-boy, but I'm looking for a device where I can easily plug in my hard drive and use it. Sounds like the workaround is a little too much here.

Has the performance improved since release? I have been seeing some people claiming that subsequent updates have improved lag.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Lordjish:
There are some odd lags here and there. I am running clean ROM, fully de-bloated and there is still keyboard lag on the sammy keyboard and when you re-boot the widgets take forever to load.

That being said I am confident that developers will work out the kinks. The screen is AMAZING. Exynos is just a bit slower than the Qualcomm offering but still plenty fast. There is no other Android tablet I'd buy.

Mine is better after updating from MJ6 to ML1.

However, I think that you would want to be prepared to root this tablet to get the most out of it. I am still getting up the nerve to do it.

---------- Post added at 10:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 AM ----------

I considered that device but it is so expensive by comparison. I expect to use pretty much nothing but wireless solutions with this tablet (in my case, basically all via VPN or internet). Have you considered a wireless hard drive? They have their own inbuilt power. That will make for a pretty slick set-up and I would think you'd prefer it over a cabled hard drive once you'd started using it.

Just a thought.

I have experimented a bit with RDP and android office stuff with this tablet and I think with a good portable keyboard/case/whatever it kicks Windows 8's butt.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pandurang_m:
Users of Z Ultra know that the Camera click pics are not upto the mark.

But the new firmware update 4.3 made me feel that Camera got improved and it clicks good pics.

Now I'm more happier than before.

People with there Z Ultra gadget, what is your opinions on the Camera before and after firmware update?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hansip87:
Well the interface of camera is the buzz around the town now. As of the quality, i don't think there's an improvement. But really having a good laugh with those AR Effect :) really love such a simple yet bringing very much joy with me :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pandurang_m:
Really it's fun to play with the camera now with AR Effect!

Sony actually did good job here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] KayZey78:
Feels like the camera has improved as well. There is a lot less "grain" in the shots now. But I do also have som issues with flickering when recording video. Think that it maybe the auto focus that's playing up.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pandurang_m:
I didn't check with the video. I'll check and will update my views.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] chacho_2me:
for my side..as long as we dont use on low lit environmen..camera is good..and these add-ons are a plus for me as well..hoping for 4.4 on january and ability to root on locked bootloaders.. :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Mugenmundo:
Low light improvement

An improvement in low light environments. Enough that I immediately noticed. Also I enjoy the new shutter animated effect.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qazzi76:
How big are the jpeg files the new camera generates?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pandurang_m:
I checked with the Video Recording and it's surprising to see that it records very well now.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pandurang_m:
It's almost the same. However, it also depends on the picture detailing.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pandurang_m:
Now I can happily take out my Z Ultra and capture moments without hesitation. ;) :thumbup:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Interesting. It would've been nice with a few shots from 257 and 290 so we could compare them side by side, but that's pretty hard to do unless someone takes a photo of something, upgrade and take the same photo again.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] iBuzman:
Here are a few pics. "A better camera"* pic is first, "vsco"* pic 2nd, "290 rom superior auto" pic 3rd, 257 "stock rom" pic 4th.

All very similar.. On screen the 290 4.3 pics clearly look the best.

*note: The 2 non-sony cameras are the paid versions..

^^ all non-filtered pics of a beautiful Melbourne summer sunset :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Leechoonhwee:
How do we enable the AR effects? I dun see any options for it. :rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hansip87:
You need to press + Apps button on top right while choosing camera mode in camera interface, it will bring you sony select app filtering for camera effects on the play store.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jackyin11:
why my " 290 rom superior auto" has 500MP only? not 700MP?

how to change it back?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Just tried a pic today using the old 532 firmware.

To be honest, in GOOD light the phone takes good pictures.

Here is one I took earlier on today:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pandurang_m:
It's the default settings in the new '.290 ROM superior auto camera mode' if you want to change it back to 8MP then switch to manual mode.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] neverborn:
So was the camera really much better in the older ROMs? The pictures i get from 290, regardless of which camera app I use seem to be too "soft.."
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I think the camera in .290 is better, not tried a comparison shot though - stock camera pre .290 was crap in poor light, and only slightly better in full sun.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] OnImpulse:

In January, I would bring an action against Samsung Europe.

Samsung told me that has never released an update because the device works well and has no bug.

Someone can someone tell me if the TAB GT-P6800 has any bug. It's very important to start with any action....

If I wrong section, please move this topic.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] UpInTheAir:
1. Exynos exploit

2. Superbrick (aka "brickbug"). There is a troll user that will tell you this is just false, but many a good elite recognised developer will tell otherwise. I have seen the JB kernel patch and JB code changes signed off by Samsung Engineers. So if you have ICS, you're at risk.

There are apps available at XDA and Google Play to check if your device is at risk for both.

I won't bother with links, you can Google the info yourself ;)

Best of luck
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] XiliX:
Can you give me further info to PM?

I have self update to 4.0.4 but Samsung answered that TAB 7.7 is up to ICS because the device is ok and work fine. This is false because all device get at least an update.

I doubt they will bother wasting time on our device when they have almost dropped it from the line up as a new device.

Im in hong kong now and go to official samsung store all they sell is the 10.1 tab 3 and 8.0 tab 3 and 7.0 tab 3 plus a kids version.

they have a few tab 2 still.i havent seen the older style tabs like 8.9,7.7 in the shop.also cant see any tab with a 30 pin connector.

im hoping they make a new tab with good screen like our device,maybe the next gen of tabs...hopefully they have USB 3.0 aswell

so we can charge and usb host at same time easier like the note 3.

i dont know why they still sell the s2 phone everyhwere here and will continue to develope software but not support us top paying customers

that forked out big dollars for a 7.7 tab years ago.i could buy a new tab now for half of what my 7.7 cost when it was first released.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobolinko:
Have you ever lost your SMS/MMS messages restoring or installing new ROMs?

If you're like me, when you restore a Nandroid backup you do not want to have to lose your SMS/MMS, Phone Log, Contacts, etc.

I have bought or downloaded so many MMS backup stuff it ain't funny! All of them either Jumble up the chronologic order or miss a whole bunch of items and just don't work!

I have finally (for the better part of a year now) found a perfect solution, No Root Required, but if you're rooted, it still works fine.

Before I change roms, restore roms or anything that might alter the text messaging stuff, I do a backup of my sms/mms, phone log and contacts. (there are others to choose from as well) using MY BACKUP PRO, I first used My Backup Free, but since it worked so well, I bought the Pro version to support the author.

After I restore any previous nandroid, I reboot and go to the native Messaging app and DELETE ALL THE MESSAGES.

With a new rom, just install the rom, go to market and install Backup pro..

Then I simply open My Backup and restore the last backup I did and reboot. Simple, FAST, and I have never had any problems.

ALL THE MESSAGES are in the EXACT order and all the pictures in the MMS restorations are just like they were before I recovered the Nandroid. It's like I never changed anything! That is how I want it to work, and it does. (I have over 2,500 messages)

If you find yourself needing/wanting to save the stuff you have and want to reload a different ROM or Nandroid backup, You might just want to try this way of doing it. You just might be surprised as to how easy and fast this is.

I have configured My Backup to use the ExtSDcard as the repository for my backups, so that it makes things workable.

if you don't have an external SDcard, just do the backup, and copy the backup file to your PC so you can do the recovery after reinstalling The My backup app. If you cannot connect to the PC you can use AirDroid or even Gmail it to yourself.

Just my 2 cents ... For anyone that tinkers with their phone.

Aloha and Good Luck!!

Android's description:

Note2 (N-17100, XXUEMK4 , rooted 4.3 stock firmware.)

:(:(Please let me know how to get around 50 hours of battery life per charge.:what::cool::cool::p

:good: :good:Thanks in advance.:good::good:
[General Questions and Answers] Droid_Monsta91:
Hmm

I dont know about 50 hrs but you can significantly increase battery life by making sure you dont have background tasks running while its in standby. Ergo a task manager or auto task killer. But be careful if its rooted and you use a root app task killer it can kill tasks that you NEED running. Also if you can find an app that will trickle charge it when its at 100% battery and your not using it that will prolong your usage as well. Not sure what else you could do besides that or see if you can find a way to undervolt it with a power managing app *for rooted devices*
[General Questions and Answers] TheUnknownThing:
Hello, there are many ways to "slightly" improve battery usage but you can't significantly improve it. If you want to get 50+ hours, try a app called Easy Battery Saver. It generally gives me another few hours of battery usage.

Hi guys

I'm the happy owner of an SPV m5000 (Orange Switzerland), and also of a Cowon iAudio X5 DAP. The X5 has a limited USB-Hosting capabilities, which can usually be used to copy pictures from a digital camera, or music from another player, on the go, without the need for a computer. So today, just out of interest, I connected my m5000 (CardExportII active) with the X5, and hey presto...I had access to files on the m5000's card from the X5's interface.

Here's a snapshot: http://homepage.hispeed.ch/molph/pix/m5000-X5.jpg

Oh, and before you get too excited, the snapshot does show the extended_ROM files, but those are the copies of the originals in a folder on my SD-card in the m5000. This only works with CardExport.

Another drawback is that the X5 seems to have a problem with this connection, and turns itself off after a minute or so.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericna:
I want to implement a communication from my website to my Android app.

So if I send a message from my website, it should immediately show up on my phone.

I am working on this website using PHP and MySQL, so that this message can be sent to my web server.

However, if I want to have this message on my phone, I have to get this message from the server.

Then the phone has to do busy waiting all the time and this will be very inefficient, since it only has to get it whenever I send a message on my website.

How can I have the message shown up on my phone immediately without busy waiting all the time?

I am planning on expanding this functionality to other users and multiple messages, so I don't think socket communication is proper here.

What should I do?

In other words, is there any way that the server can actually 'send' the message to the phone when it receives a message?
