More pixels doesn't = better picture. A 1080 monitor only displays a little over 2mp. Considering most ppl view their pics only in a digital format and don't print them then more pixels is truly useless. Clarity and low noise are far more important.

Bottom line, the M8 can take clearer and brighter pictures in darker conditions than the S5. And that is far more useful than 16mp.

M8 test shots and low light

Just a couple test shots. I'll be doing a few more when I can. Aside from the "auto" not correcting right sometimes, people are complaining way too much over this camera... They're usually the ones who never played with the phone though either. The last shot is taken with my note 3 to compare a low light setting. The color is a little washed on the M8 but over all way less noise and in my opinion it's the more preferred picture.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
I feel that a lot of photos in bright light get overexposed, but I also think HTC can put out software updates to correct some of the biggest complaints about the camera.

For my usage, the only thing that pisses me off is not knowing when the ufocus and other effects will be enabled, due to the limitations for close-ups and "low light" pictures. Seems hit or miss too often.

I recently discovered this amazing video that teaches how to take great pictures on extreme low light.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma-ptlHsvH8

I then started to test and i got an excelent result.

I did that on a dark corridor inside my house.

I closed all the doors and let one slightly open just to let some light in.

The first picture was taken on auto settings, and for the low light levels it came up pretty good.

The second picture was taken on manual settings (like shown on the video) and i used this settings.

The difference is astonishing.

I think im going to have so much fun with this camera now ;)

Im even going to buy a mini tripod for the M8 :P

You gotta try this too ;)

The Photo became iluminated like it was taken with the lights up, but i promise the photos were taken with the same levels of light (extreme low light) ;)

Sorry if my English is not that good ;)

You probably didn't need a 4 second shutter speed, the Wall looks a little overexposed..

I didn't watch the video but by opening the shutter longer you're allowing the sensor to be exposed to more light, thus resulting in a better picture.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donciclon:
I bought the Z1s about 2 days ago and have since then noticed that there is a column of pixels that appear faint going down the mid-left side of the screen. It can only be seen in very high brightness setting and is easier to spot on top of grays. Also I have the erratic touch issue i've been reading about where the screen doesn't properly register a continuous touch. Is it worth starting an exchange chain with tmobile or am i just more likely to get the same or more defects on subsequent phones?

Yes, I had that issue and I sent back to repair mine but they didn't fine such a issue and they scratched my phone everywhere. I solved after the FW .136 fixed the problem and I don't see the issue anymore. Sometime seem like it losing the touch but slightly. No problem at all when I gaming.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] wOOx1992:
Hello,

I just got my new Huawei Ascend P6 and I'm really happy with it - except in one point: the internal App "Multi-screen" uses too much WiFi traffic.

Go to "Settings (Tab: All) > More... > Data usage > Options: Show Wi-Fi usage > Tab: Wi-Fi":

below the "data usage graph", the internal app "Multi-screen" is listed and uses / causes almost 100 MB traffic per day!

No, I'm not using any AirSharing-Functions at all. :eek:

The attached screenshot shows, that the app caused 616 MB WiFi traffic within the last 7 days.

- Does someone know why, or even more important what does Multi-screen send via WiFi every day and is it possible to prevent it?

- Do other Ascend P6 users also see the "Multi-screen" app in their data usage list with this amout of MB? :confused:

P.S. Multi-screen in only listed in the WiFi section, not mobile traffic. I reckon this is draining my battery too.

Thx!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] lootjelo:

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] wOOx1992:

Hmmm... I have neither KitKat running nor root on my phone.

Is there another way to disable it (without root)? - I really want to let it stock.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] lootjelo:
It's KK Beta, or root. Sorry dude :P KK Beta is an official ROM, so it's technically stock.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] wOOx1992:

Hi All,

So I downloaded PHM reg edit and tried what is suggested by sas90850 in the beggining of this topic, but alas, I am too duh to do any serious reg hacks. I can change an existing reg but creating a new one is far beyond me. I do really want to try this hack though. Is there anyone out there that can make this a little more easy to understand or maybe post some screen shots of what it actually looks like, that sort of thing. If I am asking to much, I apologize in advance.

[General Topics] sas90850:
Find this post from here:

If you encounter sond drop problem, other web site which I found has shown some new A2DP settings that may be useful to others with bandwidth problems. You can control the bitrate with the following registry key/values.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings]

"BitPool"=dword:00000051

"SampleRate"=dword:00048000

There is a table in the A2DP Specification that shows several values to use that result in the following bitrates.

Medium Quality

BitPool=35, SampleRate=44.1khz = 229kb/s

BitPool=33, SampleRate=48khz = 237kb/s

High Quality

BitPool=53, SampleRate=44.1khz = 328kb/s

BitPool=51, SampleRate=48khz = 345kb/s

There are also parameters called "MinBitPool", "MaxBitPool" so the device can pick for itself depending on mp3 quality etc. I haven't tested the min/max parameters yet, but apparently these are used by default.

Hope it can help.
[General Topics] djvw:

[General Topics] FOSA:
RE

GREAT! JUST GREAT!!!

One thing I noticed is that hiss from music could come from the manner the song was ripped/copied ie. noise introduced during the ripping/copying process. In such a case I don't believe any registry hack can remove the inherent hiss.

Secondly, the quality of the headphone counts ie. for the same song played some headphone may exhibit more hiss than others

[General Topics] Goodge:
It's not perfect, but neither is streaming from my PC. If I'm not mistaken, the BitPool defines the SampleRate as well. You can't have a BitPool of 53 without having a sample rate of 44khz. I suspect SampleRate isn't actually used.

Wizard mild skips

Hi to All,

indeed my wizard was always working fine with the Jabra (and NEVER with the Asian HT820) but since the latest upgrade to the Molski AKU2.26 i started experiencing mild skips, in noisy conditions or when the telephone was in the pocket with other metallic objects. Very sad and annoying. However, i started playing with the BitPool parameter and it actually works great: with BitPool=35 i can listen to the music two rooms away from my telephone without skips, while before i had to choose between my left pocket and the front pocket of my coat - since it didn't work in the right pocket!!!!

Is quality worst? i don't think so: i cannot tolerate skips, while i can easily afford a slightly smaller bandwidth (i use the headset outdoors=environmental noise).

My conclusion: BitPool is indeed a crucial parameter to control skips, and AKU upgrades (with the obvious intent to improve the sound quality, probably raising the bandwidth) can impact your BT stereo quality negatively or positively depending on your SW and HW and environment....BitPool choice should be part of the settings of WMP or players, in my opinion, seeing the number of people frustrated by skips.

...up and running again!

hello everyone,

i have an htc prophet (using the ms bt stack) and using the motorola ht820 bluetooth headset.

my problem is having the high pitch noise in the background.

I tried now using the registry hacks, but it didnt help.

I found out whenever I add the value

HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/BitPool

(Dword: 60)(Default is 30)

after a soft reset the entire value is automatically gone!!

Got a question myself... have an XV6700 (Verizon) and am using TRE registry editor... don't know much about registries.

Which one do I change and to what? Thanks alot!
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
they are he same. You will want to decrease this value to, say, half of it. You can supply any value - you won't screw up your system.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Instead of a traditional soft reset, long-press the Power button to fully power down the PDA. This will make sure all Registry changes are flushed back to the flash ROM storage; that is, the values remain in there.
