[Galaxy S6 General] valdigre:
Now this is what I am talking about!

Thanks people and keep it comming!

Batter life worries me. If you get a full day of medium usage and end up with <10% battery life then in the long term, this will not be good for the battery... This stops me from going for it... Still thinking :)
[Galaxy S6 General] le_lutin:
Stevles,

Do you have any feel for how it captures images of people in less than ideal light? I'm thinking specifically about taking photos of my kids indoors.

I remember I had a G2 a while back and it was TERRIBLE at this. Because it had OIS, the camera would always keep the shutter open way too long to let more light in. The downside of this is of course that any movement resulted in a blurry mess. Z2 is better at this, but still not very good.
[Galaxy S6 General] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Yeah the shutter speed goes to around 1/10 in low-light. Highly recommended to switch to "pro" and manually adjust the shutter speed to around 1/30 - 1/50 while keeping the rest of the "pro" settings on auto to account for it automatically. It will result in slightly noisier pictures but at least they won't be fully blurry like auto mode provides in fast-pace low-light situations.

Ultimately, best bet would be to either a) use flash b) pro mode with manual shutter speed c) Sony A7S (current low-light king MILC costing around $2600AUD)

With the SGS6 it will let you either use tracking focus OR Optical image stabilization, not both at the same time. Although I'm pretty sure that only effects the video taking, not 100% sure.

I'm sure you'll work something out :)
[Galaxy S6 General] richyb86:
I think anyone coming from a z3c will be massively spoiled by its battery life. Its a freak. My s6 battery is average tbh but it's super fast and the camera is awesome. Sammy cam and picture software is really on point here
[Galaxy S6 General] le_lutin:
The s6 has two types of stabilisation: OIS which is mechanical and you can't turn off. This used for photo and video. The second is EIS (electronic image stabilisation) which is software stabilisation and can be turned off. This is only for video. Both can be used together for video. EIS is type is the one that can't be used with tracking focus, but the camera is still using OIS (as it isn't something you can switch off).

Apologies if you knew all this already.
[Galaxy S6 General] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Ah that makes sense, thanks. Knew there was something a bit "this sounds wrong" about my post lol
[Galaxy S6 General] nohcho:
I owned z3 since its release although sold it two moth ago and got s6 last week. I can say this, s6 is vastly superior in every aspect except the battery life. You can really tweak z3 setting and that battery would last two days easy.
[Galaxy S6 General] leoking3:
I mostly agree with everything that was already said. Battery life is far from equivalent to the z3c. Also I should mention size and one hand usability in favor of the Sony. Also another missed function that Samsung just doesnt want to implement is Tap to unlock the screen. I dont really use the photos on the laptop screen, so from a small screen point of view I sometimes liked the photos of the z3c more that those of the S6. Colors combinations and the final result was more eye pleasant for me on the z3c (many times). Sure S6 has a great overall camera.

Lack of microsd is annoying, but I solved it with OTG.
[Galaxy S6 General] jayr04:
I still have both because I cracked the screen on the Z3 and I won't sell it until I get it repaired. But my opinion pretty much reflects what everyone else said.

The S6 does pretty much everything better except for battery life.

I love the fingerprint scanner. Way easier than having to use lock pattern or password.

I tested the speaker with the same youtube video and the S6 was actually louder. But the Z3 sounds better when you're watching something that pans from left or right.
[Galaxy S6 General] valdigre:
Interesting, z3 louder than S6?

My z2 seems very quiet in comparison to other phones. My gf's 2013 motto g seems louder on 50 percent than z2 on 90 percent... No comparison with z3, maybe they actually made it louder.

I am also really tempted to wait on z4 but I have this bad feeling that nothing will change in terms of camera software and screen... Also worried about overheating snapdragon.

I guess z4 will not beat s6 in those regards and as you said, s6 is better in everything but battery...

If I only knew when S6 active is released and will it have better battery and same screen and camera...
[Galaxy S6 General] le_lutin:
Was just going through some videos I took recently with my Z2 and remembered another issue: the autofocus during video capture is diabolical. It's either out of focus or constantly going in and out of focus. It really affects the watchability of the recorded videos.
[Galaxy S6 General] valdigre:
Good point. I noticed this as well, especially in worse lighting.
[Galaxy S6 General] JazzaYWB:
I've only owned my S6 for about 8 hours, but compared to my Z3,it blows it out the water. The only thing I preferred on the Z3 is the mostly stock Android UI, and the battery life. The camera on the s6 is crazy good. When you take a picture of say a cat or a dog, the amount of detail it picks up is amazing. My Z3 took some really nice pictures when the lighting was nice and sunny, but it was very inconsistent. The S6 is better in every condition by far. .

Display wise, the Z3 has a very bluish white balance, while the S6 is warmer. I haven't directly compared brightness yet but they both get bright enough in direct sunlight. The S6 kills it when it comes to resolution, and also them gorgeous deep blacks. The S6 display is easily the best display on any smartphone that I've ever seen. But that's not to say the Z3 has a bad display, it just isn't as good when directly compared.

Build quality, I would say they're both really nice, and I'm hesitant to give the win to either of them.

Ergonomics go to the S6. It's a smaller size, and just feels better in the hand as opposed to the square shape of the Z3. They're both quite slippery though.

Performance goes to the S6,but not by much. My Z3 was no slouch, and never lagged, but the S6 does seem faster by a little, and the animations are smoother more often.

Overall I would say the S6 is definitely the better phone. But if battery life is very important to you, and you really do prefer stock android to Touchwiz, then the Z3 is the better option. Honestly though, they're both awesome phones, and the only massive difference is the camera, and the S6 is noticeably better.
[Galaxy S6 General] chnzshyguy:
I came from an Xperia Z2 and the camera on this S6 is 1000x better. The focusing is fast and the pictures are sharp even in low light. The slow focusing speed on my Z2 drove me insane...

Hi

I would like to upgrade my Hermes with newest HTC shipped rom. Do i have to use HARD SPL v7 to be able to back to the original rom if the new dosnt fit me??

Thanks all for info!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
Is best to do so, to protect yourself from accidentally creating a brick. It may not be necessary - but it is STRONGLY recommended.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pbalsam:
So if i want to upgrade to upgrade to the newest HTC rom should i install hard splv7 on my device?

do i have to make any changes in the rom that i'm going to instal or i should just upgrade hermeswith rom taken from htc page after installing hard spl v7.

Do i have to instal hard spl v7 once more after upgrading to the new rom?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pbalsam:
one more question:)

do i have to flash my device with hard spl every time i change my rom??

or it stays forever??

Hi Everyone,

I have just set up some lovely swipe up actions on some icons, but I'm very scared of deleting the icons because they are right up the top of the page on this theme.

Is there a way to lock the icons, just like you can with the widgets so they are not deleted.

Cheers

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatrixITA:
Hi all, I have a problem with the phone i gifted to my GF. Her LG G2 during the night (only the night!) drains a lot of battery, sometimes even 60 or 70%. This happens both with KitKat and Lollipop, with wifi on or off, with airplane mode on or off. I tried even to reset the phone and install just 2 or 3 popular apps. I sent it to LG support and they changed the battery and the radio but the problem is still here. So I tried to root the phone and I installed setcpu to limit the cpu when the screen is off, and with this method the battery consumption is only of 8-10% (not perfect, but at least better).

So, if I ask LG to change the chipset they will do this? Anybody had the same problem? How the hell is possible that this happens only during the night?

Thanks.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
Use an Application like BetterBatteryStats.

Install the apk.

Open BBS and it will prompt you to install it as a System App. Do it.

Charge your phone to 100%.

Unplug your device, turn the screen off and go to bed. (Don't touch your device during the night).

When you wake up, unlock the device and open BBS.

Sift through all the dropdown menu options, and take note of any services or apps with a high percentage.

PhilZ Recovery For Canvas Doodle 3!​

:laugh:

I had seen the thread of Emotion Lollipop where [MENTION=5888646]djdhiraj[/MENTION] said the recovery is obsolete and isn't supporting ROMs.

So, after searching a lot I found nothing.

So,i ported a Philz Recovery For the doodle 3 (a102)

I also ported a TWRP Recovery , which worked well but later it my phone stopped booting .

I tried CTR too but no hope.

CWM did not work because MTK Droid Root and Tools gave an error - NO FIND KernalGZ , NO Split Boot Image

At last I tried the Philz recovery which works very good on the doodle 3.

This is PhilZ Touch Recovery 6 based on CWM 6.0.5.1

Recovery attached in the post.

You can flash this recovery.img through SP Flash Tools

Scatter File Download - its in the post's end (attached)

Also u can port your own recovery in the link mentioned in the notepad which is attached below.(Sorry I am a newbie so i cant post links directly)

WARNING!

THE SIZE OF THE RECOVERY IS 5.88 MB (fortunately)

Your IMEI might get affected!

And thanksfor ur time!!
[Android] ashu.s4:
I saw the package.......

The package had an update-script(Amend) and not an Updater-script(Edify) which all recoveries support.

Also this rom might not work beacuse the person who made this rom has just mixed all the files together.

I found this out when I saw there were 2 systemUI.apk in the folder priv-app and app.

Also as this rom is based on 4.2.1(As it says) has priv-app folder which is only present in 4.4 and above.

I don't think this ROM is going to work.

Also this rom was made by android kitchen.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electrash:
Hi all.

I spent some time looking at videos on YouTube and reading about it here on XDA, reviewed most of the screenprotectors for Xperia Z3.

Now i am somehow to afraid to carry my phone without anything on screen, even i know its pretty scratch resistant.

I was thinking to buy something to protect it, and i dont know which i should buy (I dont want some cheap plastic film screen protector) which will make my phone look ugly and cheap within few months.

So i ask you guys, does someone have real experience with "Tempered glass screenprotector" from ORZLY or from NILLKIN.

And also i want to hear experienced of guys who carry the phone without anything.

P.S.

Thank you for your responses, also please no reply like "use search" because i did, but i want to know more.

Also for moderators, sorry if it is duplicated Thread.

Thank you all.

Even more, as I already said, when you have a phone made of glass.

Anyone have any idea of what can it be and how to fix it?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glarepate:
1. Without any other information to go on this sounds like a classic case of a runaway app.

Check to see what may be using the most battery; force close it, clear the app's cache, uninstall/re-install -- those are the usual techniques.

2. If it is OS related then clearing the Android cache may help.

3. Is the cell signal low? There could be work being done on the local tower if this is only happening in one locale and not wherever you go.
