[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ark1406:
Recently I got Snapchat and Instagram, when I use their built in camera, the quality is severely reduced. It looks like a 5 MP camera. But using stock camera app (or any camera app) the quality is great. The problem is with apps that do more than take pictures.. Here's two photos so you get an idea. Anyone else have these issues or know a fix?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 573W1E:
I haven't noticed any particular image quality problems on my G3 with those apps. I do know that Snapchat saves images in same resolution as your screen, so in the G3's case: 2560x1440
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ark1406:
I don't know if you can see from the pictures, but I don't get anywhere near that, or HD for that matter. You wouldn't happen to know a fix?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfablac:
Instagram reduces filesize, so, they probably do this directly from the camera app.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ark1406:
I'm aware all apps reduce file size, but the images I capture are no where near up to par to a decent standard. The image quality with Snapchat on my HTC M8 was great, but on the G3 it's horrible
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alqoshi4life:
I'm having the same problem you are. I reinstalled Snapchat and the problem was still there. I even tried a camera mod (tweaks media_profiles) to no avail. It's a frustrating problem especially when I see my friends' high quality snapchat pictures and while mine are blurry.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alqoshi4life:
Solution!

I finally figured out what was causing this, it somehow just came to me. All you have to do is hide the navigation bar in Snapchat (or any other app you're experiencing this in) and viola, clear pictures! Go to settings->display->home touch buttons. Hope this helps!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erwaso:
So it just looked blurry on your end until you removed the nav bar and on others' phones it looked fine even before your fix?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alqoshi4life:
No it would be blurry to the people I snapchatted as well. I think it has to do with the fact that snapchat captures the image as a "screenshot" of what appears on the screen rather than the raw image from the camera.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ark1406:
Oh my, thank you so much man! I could finally Snapchat friends without feeling embarrassed, you're the best!

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aladinliverpool:
hello XDA World

I have been a lover of the Samsung range for some years now but never really delved into rooting.

I have owned a 2nd hand Galaxy note 3 which I purchased from CEX in the uk back in April. It was an unlocked BTU version. But it died last week.

CEX have replaced the unit fine. But its the Vodafone ATL (spain) version currently. still has the Vodafone apps on it.

What I want to do is convert this to the UK BTU version that I know and love.

what do I need to do please? forgive me if this has been asked several times. and please no "search the forum" statements. there is way too much information to know to begin to start looking!

If someone can give me some pointers I can work out the rest myself. I just need pointing in the right direction.

Many thanks

Liam:)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
As it was BTU, you can download BTU firmware and flash it using Kies or Odin.

Install the Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app, go to the 'Firmware Browser' menu, enter 'BTU' into the CSC textbox and tap the Go button to search.

So you better not try it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ss4luis2000:
Ok thanks for the heads up. I think ill just stick with stock.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dante501:
Actually u did try it again after finding a method that works to get the phone back running in case it gets stuck again. U indeed get root with www.towelroot.org and works fine. Just one thing that somehow isnt linking it is the freege app to the a recovery going. It freezes up after reboot and won't come back on. So i would say yes root it but u have to be aware that putting a recovery on the phone can possible brick it. But ur fine if u root only and u can also put superuser on it and such. Recovery won't work over rom mananger and freege doesn't like the rooted lg g pro a lot.
[LG Optimus G Pro] rcorvo1:
thanks, work in my e986
[LG Optimus G Pro] dante501:
Yea it dies just the freege app is rather buggy in to use and possible can soft brick ur phone. So be careful when using it.

I have gotten myself into a bit of a problem. I have a canadian Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (N8010) and today (after being sick of 4.04) I decided to update my firmware version to 4.2. Unfortunately I made the mistake of flashing a rom for the N8000 through ODIN. Currently I am stuck in ODIN mode without the ability to access recovery. I have tried flashing 4.2 for the N8010 without any luck (receiving the FAIL notification in ODIN). I have also tried flashing different recovery but am unable to get my tablet to respond.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] RyanS2000:
Can anyone refer me to a how to for how to go about flashing this rom on a 100% stock phone? Every guide I look at says before starting this you must s-off first, must root first, must unlock bootloader first which is confusing. Is there an all in one guide available for doing this?

With my GS3 it was much simpler, just unlock bootloader, flash recovery/root/ROM and go.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Tigerstown:
You need s-off because on Vzw HTC you can't unlock bootloader with s-on via htcdev cause Vzw blacklist it. So their for you need s-off to unlock thru there. If you use sunshine which is a app you run very simple that will s-off an unlock your bootloader then you can just flash a recovery an flash SuperSU for root an then flash any ROM you want.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JeremyNSL:
Hey,

Just got my N7 2013 wifi last week. Running it stock for now (4.4.4 w/ ART), rooted. I'm noticing audio glitching (buzzing or bzzzt sounds), during what seems like periods of high CPU usage. Mostly during games, but also it has happened when I played music in the background while browsing.

Anyone else get this? Will flashing a custom ROM/kernel help? If so what do you suggest? I googled the problem and came up with this:

https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-3423

But I'm not sure how to interpret that info. Thanks. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mugzylol:
Hard reset :D that should work. I get no problems with mine so a hard reset should fix it. If not try switching to dalvik. Art is quite unstable.

sent from my nex7
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
I haven't had any audio problems with my 2013 N7 but... I did have to RMA my 32GB 2012 N7 for a similar problem. You can try switching to dalvik and see if that makes any difference. If that doesn't work you can try doing a factory reset using a custom recovery (TWRP) which will not wipe your storage. Just remember, if I'm not mistaken, you have 14 days to do an exchange or refund, after that your only option is to do an RMA.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JeremyNSL:
Its a used device, can't RMA. But anyway, did you read what I linked? It seems that CM bug log describes the problem exactly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
I'm pretty sure that the warranty is in effect up till one year from the original purchase date when the device was new. I saw an xda member who is an Asus rep so you could send him an email and find out for sure if you want to. And it might be worth finding out if they will do a repair if you can't RMA, might be worth it. I did check out the link and it looks like it was just a CyanogenMod issue. I haven't run CM in a few years (I use the stock rom) but haven't myself heard of that problem on the stock rom. I have heard of audio problems like the one I had where the external speakers sounded way overmodulated with crackling noises at higher volumes but I'm not disputing that yours is not similar to the CM bug. Mine was a hardware issue. I did a factory reset, flashed the stock images and nothing made a difference. Fact is, I waited a couple months before doing the RMA because playing games or watching videos I usually use my Klipsch earbuds and they sounded great. Does your audio sound ok with headphones. Sorry I couldn't have been more help. Good luck!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JeremyNSL:
I switched to Dalvik and the problem was still there. I flashed the latest CM snapshot (also Dalvik for now) and so far in a few days I have not experienced the problem again. I'll update this post later if it does happen...

It could have been some glitch in the stock android install i guess?
