[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yaconsult:
I can not answer your question about ram usage. I'm not sure how much of the framework or the modules remains in memory after it makes changes to the default appearance. But I can tell you that xposed works fine on the Moto G. I've been using it on my LTE model for a few weeks and have been having fun trying out different modules. Of course, gravitybox is the mother of all xposed modules and has the most number of interface tweaks in one module. It's definitely the first module to start with. The main xda-developers.com website has a number of video reviews and articles about xposed modules - just search for "xposed" there.

Regarding Moto G memory usage, the minfree settings are overly aggressive on 4.4.4, so I recommend the following solution:

Fine tuning the MinFree settings (improving on Android's multitasking

For rooted phones only, of course, but it makes a huge difference in usability. In 4.4.4, the moto G is too aggressive about killing apps to free memory so that you can't switch between two large apps without it killing one app and restarting it. By using the minfreemanager with the aggressive settings, the phone handles multitasking much, much better.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] daiash:
my first XDA EXEC will be here 2moz

may be buying one of these http://www.gpsforless.co.uk/product_details.php?id=3091

does anyone know if you have to use the mic and speaker function ?

because i would only like to use the charger function

and which mounting arm do you get with this ?

or is it worth me just getting the HR Window Mounting Kit With the Extending arm ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] apd:
I would strongly advise against using that sort of mount. They can be quite a tight fit for the Exec and, much worse, can put pressure on the mini-USB port sufficent to wrench it off the motherboard. Much much better to use the Brodit system.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] daiash:
thanks for the reply i eventually decided to go for the HR mount with vibration-free suction with extending arm

very sturdy

also puchased the bluetooth gps mount which is intergrated into the pda mount.....

but instead of sticking the bt gps unit directly to the mount (as specified) i used sticky velcro so i can remove the gps unit from the car easily
[General Questions and Answers] ryantju:
So i tried to update my P880 (LG optimus 4x HD) to JB & backing my phone up via the LG suite.

Whenever it reboots in that process i get this error:

I've contacted LG and they still dont know what it is.

Very strange & i hope someone can answer me!

Ryan.
[General Questions and Answers] TechMinerUK:
Can you get the device to bootloader/fastboot?

Try to get into bootloader mode in the phone by enabling developer options, then adb and use cmd with the command "ADB reboot bootloader"

Once in bootloader mode flash the stock ROM or follow the guide here: http://androidromupdate.com/2013/04...80-to-v20a-official-android-4-1-2-jelly-bean/

I saw some you guys feeling bother for walkman illumination light. So here you have the simple way.

Requirements :

Root

Any root explorer

Steps:

First use any root browser and go to system/app

There should be two files :

1. SemcIllumination.apk

2. SemcIlluminationSetting.apk

Move or delete those file.reboot.

Done

I know it's piece a cake but will feel good if you like and use thank button as this is my first thread :)
[Xperia SP General] ZakooZ:
Well... Not to sound like an asshole but

Settings -> Display -> Light effects -> Uncheck "Music beat light effect" and "Photo album effect"

also, why u buy a SP if u're taking away one of its best features (that imao identify the phone)? xD absurd
[Xperia SP General] amigo911:
You can try by yourself. Still walkman led will blink for once. It disables permanently by this way
[Xperia SP General] amigo911:
I agree too but its about privacy for some users.several people asked this simple thing to me and got this eassy solution

I know this might sound crazy enough but can someone find out if these apk will make led work on cm

I know we need the api for that but worth a shot.

+ on the github there's notes for a "to-do" list of sorts. The list includes seeing if 4k video recording can be achieved. Same with 60fps video recording. Also a port for the n7 as it doesn't work on that yet, even with lollipop.

4k was not possible, but now it can record videos at max resolution of 3264x2448 at 30fps with manual focus and manual exposure.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Tagtag123:
4k is not possible because the sensor does 8mp max which is 3264 x 2448, whereas 4k is 3840 x 2160. So, we are short by 0.3mp. But still it's very good.

The app is regularly updated and everybody interested should have a look at

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
I'm not rude at all.. You just can't say someone that you 'thanked accidentally'.. Yes i agree you liked accidentally but you don't have to tell it.. And i never told that YOU ARE WRONG.. I said i didn't had to do these steps to get 60fps working..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Actually, if you have been on XDA long enough, you'll see that happen quite often. Lol. Like I said, I only mentioned it so others wouldn't see my thanks and say "oh he thanked him for letting us know L camera now ships with 60fps recording no mods needed". So they would think that and now you have 17 people asking you personally in this thread why it isn't working for them and how to get it working. I never said you said I was wrong. Not sure what you mean by that. And yes, you do have to do these steps to achieve 60fps video recording. It just IS NOT POSSIBLE to do with the stock camera lib. Check github again, you seem to be somewhat mislead or confused on how 60fps recording actually works. If you didn't replace the lib, then you aren't recording 60fps, period. Again yes your comment was a bit rude.

Anyways I'm done in this thread, you first didn't even acknowledge that you weren't the developer for 4 pages and then refused to credit the original developer at all until a bunch of us came in and suggested you do so out of respect for him and his work. Then you spread misinformation in this thread several times. If I need any more support, questions, etc I will take it to reddit where I can contact the developer directly, because you are clearly not the person to ask.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Atok_fr:
It's really strange. When I take with this camera and I open the .dng I see a picture with HUGE noise (and bad contrasts but if I understood well that's the concept of .raw files). This noise can be partially removed using Photoshop express on N5. But why do we have these imperfections on the .dng ? I believed .dng was high-quality picture ? Maybe I misunderstood something ?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Unedited RAW / .dng photos typically aren't going to look better than the jpegs the camera app puts out. RAW photos don't have any post-processing (noise reduction, sharpening, color correction, contrast adjustments, etc.) applied to them. They contain the untouched data that the camera hardware captures. The camera app and / or camera firmware applies automated post-processing to this RAW data to clean it up and create a jpeg image that looks better. The problem is, when post-processing is applied and a jpeg image is created, a lot of the original image data is lost, so if the automated post-processing doesn't do a good job (it's never perfect), then the jpeg photo can never be edited to look as good as it could have since some of the original data was lost. But if we have access to the original, raw, untouched data (in RAW / .dng format), we can import it into Photoshop or Lightroom and do all of the post-processing ourselves. People who know what they're doing can easily do a better job of post-processing than the automated job the camera app or firmware does, thus producing a much better image.

In short, an untouched RAW photo will not look better than the corresponding jpeg put out by the camera app, but if you know what you're doing and have the right software, you can use the RAW photo to create a jpeg that is much better than the one the camera app put out.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Atok_fr:
That's what I believed understand. So that noise is the real camera's noise ? That's so ugly ! O_o

android.sensor.exposureTime for Nexus 6 and Moto X

Does anybody know what are return values for android.sensor.exposureTime on Nexus 6 or Moto X?

Nexus 5 returns:

---------

V/lcamera (29576): android.sensor.info.exposureTimeRange

V/lcamera (29576): [13231, 866975130]

V/lcamera (29576): android.sensor.info.maxFrameDuration

V/lcamera (29576): 867028050

Meh... Recording at 60 fps and playing it back at 60 fps is the same as recording at 30 and playing it at 30. Get an app that can play it back at half speed. Manufacturers do the same thing.. They tell their own gallery app that any high fps footage has to be played back at 30 fps.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] moesfeld:
I tried the AEB shots from fv-5 and camera2:

they were pretty equal; fv-5 being slower shooting but somehow the raw images of fv-5 were less grainy. Doesnt make sense though, as both apps are using the same API. The doc said 30fps full frame pictures. but the the ev-change takes some time. Camera2 gets it done in <1 sec with 7 ev. where Camera fv-5 takes about 3 sec.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Broncos15:
there is very little difference between all the apps i have tested ( snap camera, a better camera and manual camera ). But I use snap for video because it uses some kind of sorcery to record proper 4k video, and now manual camera for an everyday shooter. Its shooting speed is unmatched, and the controls are so accessible and user friendly
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
Snap Camera can record 4k for nexus 5?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Broncos15:
Well... Sort of. It crops the sensor then uses the GPU to interpolate the pixels on the fly. Pretty amazing the power of phones these days. I don't actually have a 4k TV to watch them on yet, but screen grabs of individual frames look pretty good
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Ceiryus:
I agree!

Though I find when i take wide shots, I find it there is allot of blur. I'm not sure if it's lighting or the app, but i'm leaning towards the app because the stock lollipop camera is quite crisp in the photos

Manual Camera is excellent for taking those macro shots though.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jonoro11:
AFAIK, similar to GoogleCam HDR+, it takes a quick burst of pics to produce an image with lower noise, higher spatial resolution and wider dynamic range.

DR is usefully wider than Google´s hdr+, probably because the burst encompasses a wider range of exposure (maybe -2 +2 ev vs -1 +1 ev ?). Very useful in backlit scenes for instance.

In my experience, in good light, resolution is also higher (there is a 18MPix option); I assume they use oversampling superresolution algorithms to achieve this.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] gamer.11:
And yet Google seems like it won't bring any of these new improvements to the Google Camera App anytime soon *bummer*
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] atomomega:
Not necessary, there are at least 5 other camera apps that produce amazing pictures and take full advantage of the camera2 API. It'd be nice, tho.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jonoro11:
I actually think that Google has done its job by bringing out a nice camera app with nice features (various pano modes, focus effect, hdr+, sphere) that appeals to the general user, and by bringing out camera2 API for developers to come out with more specific niche apps, which in the case of BetterCamera Super mode entail proprietary algorithms.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] gamer.11:
the advance menu within the app looks kinda empty with only manual exposure settings, if google is worried about breaking the simple usablity then this is the place to put them in

HDR+

HI Guys

quick question, is there a reason why google camera does not have HDR+ option on any other phone and only on nexus phones and also is there a way to achieve that.

I had good nexus 5 and then replaced it with google nexus 6 which i found too big after using it for 4 months and got rid and as i didn't wanted to go back to old nexus 5, i end up buying M9, i do love the phone it has its own HDR and camera software but i just loved how good camera was nice and clean and hdr+ was one of the best things i saw on it and always enjoyed taking pictures on it.

please let me know if there is a way to achieve HDR+ on my new m9.

thanks
