You could try going to settings and go to your apps and choose google playstore and uninstall updates and use it for a little while until google pushes the current play store back to you. Or if your rooted you could uninstall the whole app and reinstall OR you can try deleting the cache and data for it. One of those three solutions is sure to work, i hope lol

Hello,

I simply love my moto g but the same cannot be said about the camera. I find that the camera struggles to focus especially during close ups. I wonder if this is a problem with moto g camera module or should it be fixed via the next update? Tried Google camera also. Same problem.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jay2the1:
Are you using the drag to focus (or tap to focus for google camera)? although I've just tested mine and mine is focusing and refocusing between distance and very close automatically no problem.

I did read on another thread that it focuses using differences between shapes so focusing on a plain uniform surface won't be very reliable.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhyrachy:
What do you intend for "close"?

I take some photos at 25, 20, 15, 10 and 5 cm

The best distance is 25cm. Under this distance it can't focus properly.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jay2the1:
Depends, mine can focus clearly all the way to ~6cm from the subject but the way the phone focuses it requires a definite 'hard contrast area' to focus on, although in your examples you do seem to have that (assuming you're trying to focus on the corner of the object above), if you try to focus on an area without much 'change' in the surface it won't focus.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhyrachy:
Could you share a pic with 6cm focus please?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srprashant91:
I still sincerely hope they fix the camera in the upcoming update. The camera on the moto g is a major let down despite being an improvement over the previous generation in terms of resoultion.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jay2the1:
http://i.imgur.com/JlyQMdt.jpg

I only said approx 6cm, if you see the actual focus is just past 6cm and from testing earlier it will reliably focus at 7cm providing the light is good. You need plenty of light and hard edges for it to focus properly and you have to put the auto/manual focus directly on the hard edge for it to focus.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhyrachy:
Really nice!

Do you used stock camera?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jay2the1:
Thanks :D, yep I use the stock camera I've just updated to the new version and the results are the same, I have Google Camera installed for photospheres but don't use it otherwise.

Just got this for my wife to.replace her old iPhone 4S. So far she is very unimpressed by the camera quality and the lack of focus accross the room. As it shifts through focal lengths it can get a crisp pictire but autofocus never stops at the right spot. :(

*edit* just purchased Camera FV-5. Had to boost the contrast and saturation in the app, but focusing is way better.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SLata:
I too have this problem, I sometimes need to quickly take pictures of a page in a book for a quote, and the camera simply won't focus on the text at all. The moto g turbo used to do a great job, I thought I was getting an upgrade, but the g 4 plus camera focus on close objects and text is horrendous. Do you think an update will fix it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] molybear:
I’ve been sticking with my Note 2 for years and just waiting until the Note 4 to upgrade. I came always with mixed feelings with the Note series. Loved the great display, superior hardware in the hood and S Pen, but found it was not convenient to carry. I was successfully controlled my desire not to buy a Note 3, because the improvements are minor, but for the Note 4, just regret to read those reviews on it lol.

Already fell in love with this device! Yesterday I received an email from MPJ asking me if I am willing to enter their giveaway for Note 4 extended batteries. They had sent me a free Note 2 4500mah battery for testing before and frankly Note 4 battery life is outstanding and replacement is no need for temporarily, but it definitely can't hurt to enter, so I will post my review as long as they send me a free sample.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Pandawg:
I'm thinking about getting the GPE of this phone. A few questions I have are how are the battery life? Can you flash ROMs that aren't from the GPE edition development section, and how's the camera? I'm thinking about selling my Note 3 and getting this device. Sorry if the questions are answered already, I couldn't find them anywhere, and I appreciate any and all answers :)

Also is there root and is the device going to get lollipop and lollipop rootable?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
The camera is OK, but not flash - pun intended.

ROMs from don't say they support the GPe probably will boot but won't have cell and wifi. I get 2 days of light use or a day of good use (5 to 6 hours of screen on time)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rsohne:
I had a Note 3 under Verizon Wireless so it had a locked bootloader. The roms for it were good under the circumstances. If I had that phone unlocked I would have had the same choices as I do with the Ultra. Even though the devices are pretty equal on the spec front (except the camera)I love the Ultra. There is just something about this device. As for the GPE rom it runs fantastic but I currently run the stock rom. I think it does better with battery but the GPE rom is fast and smooth. Almost like a different phone. The cool thing is you have many options compared to a locked Note. If you can get past the size of this beast I am sure you will love it.

If you decide to get this device read read read all of the posts about rooting. Coming from a Samsung device is different. Make sure you download a stock recovery rom and that your phone is seen in fastest mode in case you softbrick the device.

no root after flashign WizCyan

After flashing WizCyan 4 with update 1 I don't have root access. I've tried reinstalling several times and I've also tried to install superSU on it's own using CWM, both the latest version and older versions, with no success. I've also tried to install just v4 but the problem persists. Does anybody have any clue on what could be wrong? I've had root on the phone using other ROMs. I use the latest CWM.

And yes, I chose no when promted to fix superuser in CWM. Although I have also tried to pres yes during one installation.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JASONRR:

I used version 6.0.3.5. Today I installed 6.0.5 and redid the flashing of the update and also of superSU 2.16 by it self from CWM. No difference

When i press the superSU app I dont get any message really. Looking at the log it's as if though the app denies all apps access without asking. I tried changing the settings in superSU to allow all requests and then the phone passed the check with root checker and root apps also seem to work. No app is added to the SuperSu applist.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JASONRR:
Sure, you can install on any firmware, but if you have wifi issues then you may need to flash modem or some other workaround. Just wipe data/factory reset and install version 04 followed by update 02. I am not sure on what you mean by memory but presume that you are referring to internal sd card. This will depend on what apps/features you install from the addon package and playstore. The ROM will not affect your internal sdcard space as it will be installed on the reserved system space.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andycore:
I've been tinkering with trying to get WizCyan totally working on my device for a couple of days, but I can't for the life of me get Wifi working (at first it was root access, but that was fixed by upgrading CWM). Here is the exact process I've followed:

Updated CWM to 6.0.5 (PhilZ's version)

Did a factory reset from recovery (I didn't use the "Clean to install new ROM" function)

Installed WizCyan version 4, followed by update 2

Rebooted, attempted to configure WiFi -- failed.

Flashed the NE5 modem package from the links in the dev thread, using Odin 3.07 -- twice each, as instructed

Still can't get my Wifi to enable. The flash was successful, as I can see the correct baseband on the "about" screen, but it refuses to enable. I'm in Australia, but I believe this phone came from UAE -- would that make a difference to the way the modem interacts with the Wifi hardware? I pulled this info from logcat:

I/WifiManager( 1084): setWifiEnabled : true
I/WifiService( 882): setWifiEnabled: true pid=1084, uid=10008
E/WifiHW ( 882): ##################### set firmware type 0 #####################

E/WifiController( 882): Wi-Fi driver is unstable. Received CMD_STATEMACHINE_RESET

In the mean time, I'm going to try to source either a local radio, or one from the original region, to see if that helps.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JASONRR:
Can't get anything much from the logcat, it refers to a file that gets created on 1st boot you can try doing a factory reset from settings--> backup & restore--> factory data reset. Only backup your internal sd card before doing this as it will wipe your entire phone including internal sdcard and then reflash the modem.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andycore:
Well if I'm going to go that far, I may as well do it properly and completely restore the phone to stock and start again. When I bought it, the first thing I did was root, flash CWM and a CM based ROM -- it's probably worth starting fresh anyway, I'm only going to be using it for a couple more weeks until it's replacement arrives.

I'm currently downloading the latest firmware for my region (XSA), a 4.2.2 based MK3 build from the end of last year -- do you think I'd have better chances if I restored to a 4.4.2 build (like NE5), or should it not matter if I completely reset the phone to factory settings/software?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JASONRR:
Generally doing a factory reset from the phone resets the entire firmware and is helpfull to resolve such issues. if you want to install the entire firmware, I would recommend flashing the 4.4.2 PHN firmware you can get the download link in post# 13. But then there were wifi issues after flashing the PHN firmware for which a factory reset from the phone happened to be the solution.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andycore:
Thanks for that mention of the firmware, I had the radio from that link but forgot you'd also linked the full package. Google Drive is much faster than the websites I'd been trying to get files from, it took 15 hours to download the XSA firmware I was originally going to use.

You were totally correct, resetting the phone was the solution. I got the PHN firmware, flashed it via ODIN only to find it still hadn't fixed the WiFi problem -- even after a factory reset -- however the process of flash/reset/re-flash fixed it for me -- it seems unnecessary to me, but I guess times have changed since I last tinkered with unlocked devices. I'm happy to say that I now have WiFi working under WizCyan now, just wanted to check back in just in case anybody else was facing similar issues. As painful as it is to have to back up and totally restore, sometimes starting completely fresh is the best solution.

Now I'm off to rebuild my SD Card, lol.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JASONRR:
Glad to know that you managed to get the wifi working.

Personally, I did not face the wifi issue after flashing PHN firmware, but know that quite a few have faced this issue as reported in this thread

Normally my understanding and experience is that when you flash different modems / firmware some corruption occurs and factory reset from within the phone resets the partition & firmware. 1st time I experienced this was when I was using a MTK 6575 based device and had amended the EBR, MBR and scatter files to modify the partition sizes, even though these were flashed through mobiuncle tools (similar to odin), the revised partitions did not get changed until I did a factory reset from within the phone. I know that this is irrelevant here but thought that I would share this.
