[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kroesss:
Hello everyone,

My girlfriend has recently bought a Jiayu G5 since she needed a new phone, and I have had a great experience so far with my G3S.

She has been using the phone for about two weeks now, and it is excellent, but it does have one very annoying bug with the bluetooth. She has a pebble smart-watch she connects it to using bluetooth, and this works as it should. The problem starts when the watch has been out of range of the phone. Once it disconnects, you have to turn bluetooth off an back on for the connection to be picked up again (I think this is due to the pebble-app on the phone). However, once you turn bluetooth off, it will not turn back on. You have to reboot the phone. After the reboot it works again as it's supposed to work, until you turn the blueooth off for whatever reason,then it won't turn back on. When you tap the switch, it turns on for like a tenth of a second, and it goes straight back to off.

The G5 is running the Jiayu.es-rom because we don't speak chinese :)

This is android 4.2.1, pretty much vanilla android so far as I can see.

Does anybody have any clue as to what might be the cause of it?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightrider2k2:
Not sure if its my unit or all S5 have this problem. Pictures come out blurry unless you put the phone on a tripod!

I have software image stabilizer On. Taking picture of the same scene from an iphone gives no blurr at all. Even tried with droid DNA and its fine as well. Anyone else having the same experience?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] system.img:
Did you remove the thin plastic film covering the camera?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightrider2k2:
yep. I did.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightrider2k2:
example shots

Adding an example shot taken with iphone and S5 at the same time.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laz45:
do you have image stabilization on?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeFCaputo113:
Yes he does, read the 3rd sentence "I have image stabilizer on" lol. But yeah that's your problem OP, take that OFF!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laz45:
Hey at least I was in the right track :p
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdrussell:
Hmm i don't agree with that. If i sit here at my desk and take repeated frames of the same object (low light, indoors), only about 50% come out clear with IS off. I have a hard time not taking a clear picture with IS on which, obviously, is the point.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
I think it's a software problem that will be fixed in future updates.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] degast:
Probably, for now just increase the light. Shine a lamp on that object or something..
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
Is there any way to manually adjust iso?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightrider2k2:
Thanks, that made it better. but still a little blurry. trying to figure out if I should stick with S5 or get M8.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdrussell:
Yes
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeorgeP:
You have a LOT of motion blur in the S5 shot. And it doesn't seem to be that dark in the room. I can't that much motion blur on my S5 unless I deliberately shake it while taking the picture. If that shot is typical, then you may have a defective unit.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
How? Mines always blanked out and set to auto.

It's ok. Problem solved. Just had to switch off hdr mode.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightrider2k2:
another set of test shots

another set of test shots. image stablizer is turned off (and it made some difference). test space is pretty well lit.

Droid DNA is much better than S5.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bubblebuddyi:
I took the attached picture in very low light, are you seeing what's on your images? I left everything default. Image Stabilization on, auto, etc.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightrider2k2:
hard to say with this subject. easier to compare if there is some text in the picture. When I take a picture of kids running around, they come out horrible.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bubblebuddyi:
Same lighting, maybe a tiny bit darker. I'm beginning to think there's something wrong with your camera!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdrussell:
I'm inclined to agree there's something wrong with your camera. This is in very poor light.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knate.baca:
Mine was having a problem focusing with close up pictures thought it was the low light but it's still happening in bright areas too. Anyone else having the same problem?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SooooneR:
So this is what I found out...

When taking a pic that is 1.5 feet away or closer you use selective focus. When I try everything auto and I try to take a pic of something close it blurs. You will notice the icon on the left... just under the icon to change from rear cam to front cam. Turn it on and you will see an explanation. Works pretty awesome. :good:
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hemander:
A not having problem on mine. It's doing fine.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Honchay:
You can't compare, both phones takes superb pictures. But, they have different sensors, the iPhone catch more light than the GS5, so, it has a faster shutter speed, pictures come out clearer and focused on mid-low light situation or action photos. The GS5 need more (milliseconds) time, so, tha'ts why it comes out blurry at the minimum movement of the phone, it's the same on almost all galaxy series.

I'm using a iPhone 5s and Galaxy S4 (4.4.3), tested for 30 days an Galaxy S5

[General Questions and Answers] tuomaalle:
Hello,

I have a question about unlocking Lumia 720 on Windows 7. I can't seem to get past Windows Phone Developer Registration part since my phone is not recognized.

I'm running Windows 7 (64-bit).

Below are the tricks that I've tried so far.

1) I followed the instructions in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2377254 but without much luck.

2) I tried installing Windows Phone 8.0 SDK Lite at http://windowsphonehub.in/tutorials/guide-install-windows-phone-8-0-sdk-lite-windows-732bit-64bit/

3) The standalone executable of the registration program couldn't find my phone (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2027902)

4) I have tried different versions of the following software http://windowsphonehub.in/tutorials...eloper-unlock-windows-phone-sideload-10-xaps/ but it shows some kind of error in chinese.

5) I can see my phone listed in the device manager without any errors (on this computer) and I can access the files using Windows Phone manager which I also installed (I tried zune too but it didn't work, obviously)

6) I've tried these steps on three different Windows 7 computers.

7) IpOverUsbSvc is running (I've tried restarting it)

8) I tried downloading the IpOverUsbSvc drivers from catalog.updates.microsoft.com

9) I've tried setting my system time to 1.9.2013 (september the 1st)

10) I have tried renaming my phone, with and without sim card and screen unlocked.

Sadly I don't have an access to Win 8 computer and I can't format the computers I have used.

If you any tricks up your sleeve I'd like to hear them.

Thank you.

So my dads girlfriend tried to do an update for her Xyboard 10.1 MZ617 (which is not rooted). After the update the tablet reset and just went to a black screen (back lit). I can get the tablet into the fastboot. I also tried to do a recovery, the tablet will display the green android laying down with an exclamation mark, after that it displayed the M logo then went back to a black screen. I have searched all over the internet and I have found 1 solution but apparently I am not smart enough to do it.

I found runandhide05's Fastboot Files however I am not doing something right. I downloaded the files he has listed, When I click on the RunMe file I get a cmd prompt, it says press 1 if you are in fastboot, I press 1 and I get this message (that flashes very quickly before going away)

error: cannot load 'allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin'

rebooting into bootloader...

I installed RSD Lite, I can see the device listed but when I click the "..." and try to decompress and flash the fastboot files I get this error message.

Multiboot for Sony Xperia Z1

How to install boot menu

- download bootmenu_honami.rar, extract folder "bootmenu" to the your internal storage

- put boot.img or kernel.elf to the mainrom folder, make sure thats the same kernel like your primary rom (aka main rom)

- download bootmenu.img from attachment, flash bootmenu.img using fastboot commnd: fastboot flash boot bootmenu.img

Since your bootmenu folder not contain settings.ini (you runing bootmenu at a first time) that will be created easily. You need to complete main step aka main rom creation:

1. (mainrom creation) reboot into bootmenu, chose "patch...", navigate to bootmenu, navigate to mainrom, select mainrom.zip package (make sure boot.img or kernel.elf is the same like your current main rom kernel, and make sure boot.img is in folder mainrom), select mainrom.zip and click "yes". Main rom will be added into boot menu entry. Now reboot again into boot menu and you will see new menuentry, chose these menu to boot into your primary rom! :)

2. (other roms creation - you can do only if you completed main rom step) reboot into bootmenu, chose "patch...", principe is diferent (there is 2 steps):

- step 1: chose rom zip you want to patch, patch them

- step 2: reboot again into boot menu (new rom entry will be displayed), select these rom to boot, on led blinking press to boot into cwm, now you are in cwm of these rom, now navigate to the same folder where is your package, you will find zip with appended name "patched.zip", chose these patched zip to install trought these recovery, you are done! :)

If something fail, make sure look into bootmenu folder into main script aka "multiboot.sh", try to fix-improve something ;) Enjoy!

WARNING:

- NEVER RENAME FOLDERS OR ZIP ARCHIVES TO HAVE SPACE IN NAME SINCE BOOTMENU WILL NOT WORK!!! INSTEAD OF WRITING SPACE " " WRITE "_" SOMETHING_LIKE_THIS" !

- there is possibility for your partitions of the main rom to get overwriten if multiboot.sh fail to patch these rom you going to patch, just to let you know! Two click solution is in testing stage so there is probably a lot of bugs! I am not responsible if you lost your private data! So guys if you willing to help, I am waiting. Things need to be improved in multiboot.sh !

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Awesome work :good:

Could you please give me some instructions on how to add your multiboot to a host kernel when building from source?

I'm working on a kernel for the z1, and I have krabappel's kexec patch implemented.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
Simple extract ramdisk and make boot.img with your kernel! :) I will upload new version now, version v1.1 (support for booting from booth internal and external sdcard)! Since booting from extrernal sdcard sause some lags if sd cards is not "best speed", recomended is booting from internal sdcard since performance is the same like booting from regular boot! Wait a moment, going to upload new version in next 10 minutes! When I get more free time I will give you preconfigured menu entry with installed CM11 into file partitions so you can multiboot them without needs for lookig into our tutorials, you will simple extract them and boot :)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
New version of the bootmenu is out, enjoy!

Changelog:

- support for booting from booth internal or external sdcard

- fixed bug with reboot timer when there is no rom in settings ini or when there is no bootmenu folder
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] krabappel2548:
I'll try to release the multiboot I was working on. It is a lot easier for users then all this editing probably :p
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
We all will be very thankful to u
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
How you think to make that simple? Since external partitions is needed, allso since standard flashable zips will allso need to be modified in updater-script, allso since ramdisks need to be modified, all fstabs need to be modified, DTB need to be appended propertly to the zImage in order to boot them with kexec... a lot of other things, I think easy method is not possible definitely! Maybe a am wrong?

I have 2 ideas now for my boot menu:

- create 3 partitions (probably will open a new thread for sharing diferent partitions layout, for example cache 50mb, cache 100mb, cache 150mb, cache 200mb, system 500mb, system 1gb, system 1.6gb, data 500mb, data 1gb, data 2gb...) so after compresing them to rar size of the archive will be ~100mb

- or maybe we can implement on the fly partitions creation by the updter-script

Problem will be kernel and ramdisk since it need modification. Maybe we can ask devs to include ramdisk and kernel for multiboot in his posts.

I am out of ideas, but I think we need to make automated tool for these things. If you guys have idea please comment!

Tool needed:

- tool for extracting boot image and making zImage-dtb

- tool for extracting ramdisk, making changes needed for boot from loop device, compresing modified ramdisk

- tool for partitions creation with defined size and defined path for puting them to defined folder

- tool for entry in settings.ini creation
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
Partition creation is easy. There is few steps to create file based partition:

1. first of all - how to calculate size of the partition:

Simple using calculator. Formula is: (size * 1024 * 1024) / 4096

Foe example: you want 500mb partition, ok, formula is: (500 * 1024 * 1024) / 4096

So command for making them with adb will be:

2. get UUID of the system partition (need for step 3):

3. format created partiton:

Partitions created easily :)

Note:

These things must be done while you are in bootmenu since I am not sure if mke2fs, blkid and tune2fs tool is available while you are on android! So you can done that in bootmenu via adb!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
CWM ramdisk modifications

all fstabs need to be modified, for example fstab.qcom:

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot /boot emmc defaults recoveryonly
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system ext4 ro,barrier=1 wait
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache /cache ext4 noatime,nosuid,nodev,barrier=1,data=ordered,nomblk_io_submit,noauto_da_alloc,errors=panic wait,check
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata /data ext4 noatime,nosuid,nodev,barrier=1,data=ordered,nomblk_io_submit,noauto_da_alloc,errors=panic wait,check,encryptable=footer,length=-16384

remove line:

changed:

/dev/block/loop1 /system ext4 ro,barrier=1 wait
/dev/block/loop3 /cache ext4 noatime,nosuid,nodev,barrier=1,data=ordered,nomblk_io_submit,noauto_da_alloc,errors=panic wait,check
/dev/block/loop2 /data ext4 noatime,nosuid,nodev,barrier=1,data=ordered,nomblk_io_submit,noauto_da_alloc,errors=panic wait,check,encryptable=footer,length=-16384

In etc you can see another recovery.fstab, change them like you done for qcom.fstab!

init.rc:

add:

red line "cm11" mean that you have created cm11 folder in boot menu and use these folder for example for booting into cm11! On these "cm11" folder you have created partitons, ramdisks, kernel...etc!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
Yes that will do some work for the people.. Atleast Custom Kernal Devs can include it.
