Which recovery did you flash, what guide did you use to root, and what device variant do you have?

Also, the reason you can't see anything when you go into the recovery is because it's still on the stock recovery. Basically the one you flashed wasn't flashed properly. Use the .exe from the video in the description to flash ClockworkMod recovery.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zoopp:
Hello,

I own a GOCLEVER Insignia 785 Pro and noticed that about a week ago GOCLEVER released an update that upgrades the software from 4.2 to 4.4.2. The update is available here. Naturally, I applied the update and found myself in a situation in which I cannot obtain root access anymore. The old exploits that I used on 4.2 don't work anymore and the usual methods for 4.4.2 that I came accros (e.g. Towelroot, Framaroot and the likes) don't seem to work either.

The good news is that after some tinkering I found out that I can edit the system image before flashing it. So far I have compiled several forks of Superuser and tried to updated the system image according to the update script found in the 'update.zip' generated during compilation (i.e. move su in xbin, move the apk in app, set permissions, change ownership etc) all to no avail. I also came accross http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 and from what I can tell from that update script I think I might be missing something since those `chcon`s and that final `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/system/lib /system/xbin/su --install` must be run on the device.

All that being said, do you have any ideas on what I should try next?

Hey guys my brand new phone has done this 3 times now. It randomly plays a ringtone that came with the phone but there is no call, the screen stays off when its playing unless i unlock it, the sound doesnt go away, theres nothing in the notifications panel, and the ringtone it's playing is not even the ringtone set on my phone. The only I can get it to stop is by restarting the phone. I really don't want to have to return it and get a new phone and go through setup again. Any advise guys?

Hi there!

In the o2 download-center there are currently two different firmware versions:

Neo: Version 215447 2154140 021921

and

Neo Race Edition: Version 215448 2154141 021921

The version number of the Neo Race seems to be higher ...

Is this firmware compatible to the xda neo?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Mindmaster121:
Trey´re the same, at the Race Edition you have an other bootscreen and different BMW F1 Pictures and 1 Ringtone. You can not upgrade the normal XDA with a Race Edition Rom.

Die Versionen sind gleich, du hast bei der Race Edition nur einen anderen Bootscreen, eine paar BMW F1 Bilder und einen BMW V8 Klingelton. Man kann einen normalen Neo nicht einfach mit dem Race Edition Rom flashen, dazu musst du das RUU-NoVendorid nutzen.

Purchasing mine after work around 5pm est. My main focus right now is the camera since I'm pretty much impressed with everything about this phone when I messed around with store demo.

I'll post a whole bunch of shots and comparisons to my S5 around 8-9 est if all goes well. I did notice that reds were a bit over saturated in the samples I took at Verizon. Which was a big issue for me with my original Moto X.

I think the problem is people have crazy expectations. Its a good camera but its never going to touch a dedicated camera with large sensors. I'm now switched to Google Camera because Moto one doesn't really seem to be much better.

These are using Moto camera still.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Andromjb:
Google mentioned that the Nexus 6 is to be placed in the top 3 category in terms of camera quality. Google and Motorola do not claim to be the best in this department, I don't think they are necessarily trying to be either. Because if they wanted to, there is not doubt they could easily accomplish that. So, I would assume the same holds true for the Droid Turbo.

In short, I don't think Motorola is trying to be the best in terms of camera quality even though they most certainly are improving the camera with each release. Android has always been a bit weak in the camera department. I think they are focused on performance more so over the shooter side. Because most people serious about photography own DSLR cameras or the equivalent.

Plus a lot of people fail to remember the fact that it is in general a phone. Not a $1,000 professional camera. Yet, it still takes a damn great picture for a phone... Some people just can't be pleased.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] antjones21:
I'm disappointed in the camera, it's much worse than my Note 3. Unless you are super still the images come out blurry. I was at a dress up event last night and a bunch of the pics came out with people with white devil eyes. I sent the pics to my iPad to try and edit with the red-eye fix and that still didn't work. I'm taking the Droid Turbo back tomorrow and I'm gonna wait for the Nexus 6 or Galaxy Note Edge. The great battery life isn't enough to get me to keep this phone.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] pwhitersxs:
I did some comparison against my s5. The s5 pics consistently looked smoother but lacked detail against the turbo. If I applied a denoise filter to the turbo pics they looked better. So I think the reason they look worse in general is because there is more noise. I'm still debating on the nexus or keep the turbo.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Horikor:
Here are a few night time shots

Overall I was very happy with the way these came out. I had brought a megazoom camera along and ended up not using it because these were turning out better.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ironkidz:
Sadly, those are consistent with the pictures I took while trying the device out in my local VZW store. They are grainy even in good lighting condition and have alot of noise. Maybe the processor is trying to do too much and anything with that high res of a camera needs OIS badly.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Andromjb:
Here's a few more samples.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] onesolo:
What are the settings that you guys have when taking the photos??

For example, shouldn't you turn HDR Auto to HDR off?!? Asking this cause I know that by default HDR is turn to Auto by default on the Moto phones, and that can introduce to extra software processing, that can result in worse photos...

Wasn't supposed the widescreen photo be a cropped version of the 4:3 photo??
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] joshm.1219:
Not sure what you're asking.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] onesolo:
Neither do I... camera settings or widescreen question??
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cpufrost:
That's known as bokeh and is awesome!

The stock camera app is limited. Only the G3 (LG) has simpler "idiot P&S" functionality.

It's a good snapper and if you buy the "Camera FV-5" app (the free version has a 640x480 limit!) you have much more control over settings and can get some impressive shots.

Unlike other high MP sensors (cough, Samsung), this one can actually do OK in a wide variety of conditions surprisingly well. I would like to have a raw option though.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] civiksi:
Wow they look great. Did you tweak the settings at all?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] joshm.1219:
The one you quoted my post about, the wide-screen question
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Steve One:
Just getting set up
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] onesolo:
All I'm saying, it that, normally, and I take my Nexus 5 as an example... on a smartphone, the majority of the sensors is in 4:3. On my N5, the 8 MP is taken on a 4:3. On google camera, I have the option to take 16:9 photos with 6MP, but that 16:9 photo is not more than a cropped version of the same photo if it was taken on 4:3 8MP.

On the contrary, the photo that it was showned above from the Droid Turbo, taken with 16:9, does not seem to me a cropped version of the 4:3 ratio...

Just imagine a rectangular frame inside the 4:3 photo... that would normally be the result of a 16:9 photo from the same sensor... but what I see is that in 16:9 it got a lot more wide range than the 4:3 photo...

Hope you could understand...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] joshm.1219:
Ohhh okay sorry lol. Yeah cuz the first one I took holding the phone landscape and the second I took holding the phone vertically. They were just quick example shots someone asked me to take
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] onesolo:
Ohh, so that's why...

Can you please take the exact picture, in landscape, one in 4:3 and another in 16:9, please, just to see the differences??
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] joshm.1219:
Sure, first one is 4:3.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] GolferChris68:
The IQ in these images seems to be wildly inconsistent. Some of these shots are really good, and others seem to exhibit some blurriness/softness/noise. I guess it depends more on the conditions you're shooting in.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] joshm.1219:
Obamacare
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Andromjb:
The software processing or post processing is non existent or it is relatively just bad in general. Which leaves the hardware/camera and overall the operator left doing all the work. In return, the camera is very hit or miss if used in just point and shoot situations.

You can take really great pictures with the sensor on the Turbo, but it does require more work than needed in general. To put it bluntly, Motorola's camera app is too simplified and just doesn't have enough features.

If Motorola put more effort into the cameras software front, I have no doubt the image quality would improve greatly overall on a consistent basis.

That's why you tend to see much better pictures from LG or Samsung phones. They put the effort in on the cameras software front. Even if they put WAY too many options in, they at least give you options.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] geoff5093:
The width of photos taken at 4:3 and 16:9 are the same pixel wise, it's just the height that's different. a 16:9 photo is simply a cropped 4:3.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Andromjb:
It's no action camera, in it's current state. However, definitely a great quality camera even if it tends to be hit or miss. But, I've played around with iPhone 6's and they can produce some pretty bad pictures in general as well.

Really just comes down to lighting, situation, and overall the ability of the individual behind the camera taking the picture. Face it, if you know what you're doing, pictures will generally turn out great.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] -Michael_:
Overall, my experience with this camera sensor has been acceptable. I agree however that if the app had options, shots would be better. If I wanted pics with the quality of a DSLR... I'll use a DSLR. I wouldn't expect my DSLR to send texts or receive phone calls either.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mattlach:
Yeah, I think the camera is surprisingly reasonable:

Daylight:

Even at high ISO in the dark, (here at 1600):

I've also heard some complain about lag, but I don't feel it is bad, I shot this video as an example.

Camera performance has never been a major selling point for me in phones, as I only use my phone to take silly/funny pictures while on the go (for anything real I break out the DSLR) but the camera in the Droid Turbo has been a positive surprise.

The ridiculously high resolution is just a silly marketing number and a waste to me (they would have been better off keeping the res low, and focusing more on image quality, but then marketing can't say "mine's bigger than yours" in comparison tables, but the camera still performs pretty well.

Until such time as there is a revolution in small lens capability, and small sensor image quality, no resolution above 5MP or so makes any sense in a phone, it just wastes storage space, and results in over-compression artefacting when trying to send the image.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Andromjb:
Nice pictures. It's mostly just HDR that tends to hang, hopefully it's fixed in the next update or in Android 5.0.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mattlach:
Based on what I have been reading about 5.0 Lollipop, a lot of things should improve., when ART replaces Dalvik, including compiling source code at install time instead of runtime virtualizing apps, which should result in just about everything becoming more responsive.

Lots of battery improvements too. Maybe we'll actually hit the 48hr battery life under Lollipop :p

It will be interesting to see what proportion of apps will need to be rewritten though. Google claims most won't, but some techniques and calls will no longer work, requiring rewriting.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Andromjb:
I am sure most of the big developers already have optimized apps ready for the masses. Though things might be a little messy for the first couple weeks.

Definitely looking forward to 5.0!
