CAMERA HACKS & MODS​

If you face a Camera bug on any Lollipop ROM where hardware interface crashes after shooting some photos/videos & it says "UNABLE/IMPOSSIBLE TO CONNECT TO CAMERA".

just reboot into recovery & flash this file

Your camera will NEVER crash again!!!! Credits to [MENTION=5464206]AntaresOne[/MENTION]

Samsung's Camera drivers are closed-source (locked) so custom ROM developers are not able to extract the full potential of the hardware (eg HDR & manual camera settings such as focal length etc.)

No Camera app can fix that issue - however I would recommend you use any of these Camera applications:

1)"OpenCamera" from Play store

2) Google Camera (preinstalled) for normal & panorama shots.

3) CM12 modded CameraNext v22 from this link

"CM Camera" is nice but again due to driver limitations it's features get limited & also Panorama sometimes crashes!

MODS/ZIPS

Here you'll find all my handy little mods and explanations what they do

I do accept request, just don't ask me to build an AI ;D

These mods require the latest busybox and init.d support!

Busybox

Don't have Busybox, or you don't like your current build? Then try mine! :D

It comes in 3 different builds to be used in different situations and is definitely worth your time ;)

Now also includes a dynamic installer script! It can be used to install and update the build, so you only have to download the installer once!

SwaPa

Using this script the user can create a swap space into cache, from 50mb to 150mb.

Most users don't need it, as it's only useful if you're doing some serious multitasking or benchmarking.

When android runs out of physical memory (that rarely happens on our phone) it normally starts to kill any inactive background processes, but first gives them a chance to persist their progress (Caching or writing it down to /data) With swap, android moves the process to a swap file and retrieves it when it's needed again, so it acts like a slower version of RAM.

It also has the ability to remove all swap spaces, including Zram.

Zram is bad on a phone with a lot of physical ram (like ours) so it can be disabled. You can read more about it here.

Fstrim 3.0

When android deletes files it just writes 0 to the block where it was. This means that when android wants to rewrite to that block, it first has to completely empty it and this decreases performance. And someone could potentially recover the data that was on that block, possibly stealing personal information. So this script every 5 hours "trims" (clears blocks considered empty) /data, /system, /preload and /cache, prolonging your phones storage lifetime and improving performance. And it creates a log file to /data so you can see how much was "trimmed" You can read more about it here.

New feature! Cache dumping! Android caches apps for faster start-up and usage, but on some ROMs/Kernels this can cause lag after few days, or even few hours! Now this script dumps the cached ram for an instant speed boost!​

Will my s4 charge faster if i set the charging to 1900mA in the kernel?

Because i have a 4port usb charging port with an output of 3amps i believe.

[Galaxy S 4 General] Shade5:
[MENTION=6753882]droidblitz[/MENTION] you must keep the sTweaks settings for AC Charging at 1900mA in the Kernel & USB at 460mA

Only if you have a charger 1.9A charger only will it charge super-fast to full capacity - BUT it will also heat up the circuits & it's not advisable to use the phone at such times.

P.S - I don't have the original charger (nor do I have the original battery) so I use a 1A charger to fill the battery & it does the job in a few hours (around 4-5 hrs I guess) and it doesnt heat the battery or circuits much (which means my battery will last me much much longer)
[Galaxy S 4 General] droidblitz:
Ohh i thought it was not really working.

Gonna try it with 1900mA besides im putting my phone on top of a laptop cooler when its charging. To keep it cool while playing.

Hi just wondering if i buy this phone http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-Blac...41?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item280344d421

Will i be able to unlock the bootloader? assuming it's not verizon if coming from hong kong or would i be wrong? cheers
[Moto X Q&A] imnuts:
I'm guessing the "unlocked" in the title means SIM unlocked. If it isn't a developer edition, your only chance to unlock the bootloader is Sunshine.
[Moto X Q&A] morgs640:
Would this still hold true given that this is coming from Asia? or are all xt1060s locked aside from the dev model?
[Moto X Q&A] imnuts:
As far as I'm aware, yes.

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Moto X Q&A] RonnieTheBear:
Do you mean that Sunshine might eventually work to unlock the bootloader on XT1060s? or is it working right now?

(I know I can check by just running the app on the phone, but I don't own the phone yet either, was considering buying one)

EDIT: just did a little more research, seems like sunshine will work for XT1060s if it hasn't been upgraded to 4.4.4 . If anyone knows otherwise, please correct me.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
I'm not aware of the XT1060 being sold by any other carriers that Verizon in the USA. All Verizon XT1060's are SIM Unlocked (aka carrier unlocked) due to FCC 700mhz C-Block rules.

Moto only gave out the Bootloader unlock code for the Developer Edition XT1060. Sunshine will work so long as the phone is on 4.4.2 and has NEVER been flashed with 4.4.4 or higher.
[Moto X Q&A] hugh a:
i used the motorola unlock your bootloader site to unlock a xt1060 4.2.2 non dev edition, was this customary or did i just get lucky?

kidjoe every thing i know about the 2013 x ive pretty much learned from you, thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
It was either just lucky, or you used the China Middle Seller/Middle man that was available long ago and not Moto's web site.

I am using POCKET PLAYER (as recommeded in the thread below), it does have full AVRCP - forward/backward (which is a 10 sec bump in the track, not a full track bump) stop/play. Pocket Player does not play AVI video's, so we had to re-convert some stuff. I would also note watching video's using BT was skippy (less skippy than WMP, but skippy enough I wouldn't use it that way).

See this link in another part of Xda:

I was going to try CorePlayer myself, but their website did not say it was AVRCP...so I e-mailed them and here is their response:

"Hello,

Thank you for writing to the CoreCodec Support Group.

Bluetooth has just been added to our last release. It may not support some of the functionality. We are still working on and hope to have all the bugs fixed in a future release!"

Well first of all hi to all, and thanks for taking the time of reviewing this,

I cant seem to find an answer anywhere so literally any information on the subject would be apreciated.

I own a ntt docomo fujitsu arrow s, The phone has been working flawlessly for so long

so much that i just never consider even doing a backup, now im literally facing hell

Well ill try to explain my problem also keep in mind im not really good with android, but i fix pcs so i get some stuff.

Okay ill start, one day my phone was working as ussualy and i went to the gallery as always and i had the external storage not available message,

so then i went to storage and it reflected that my internal storage was 0.0g.

So the thing is, apparently my data is still there, my apps are there, my wallpaper didnt switched, just like my ringtones, also if i go to

clean master and in settings-apps my apps and the storage i had before the incident was exact, as in i had 18g of used memory and it still reflects me that,

but certain apps like file explorer dont show anything , i literally dont have anything in my storage, idk what to think of this.

Also ill post some extra information because if anyone have any info i guess you will need more info from my side.

If i connect the phone to usb storage , it reflects me my internal storage is at 0.0g and nothing is inside.

Ive never rooted and never even tried.

I didnt install anything lately that may cause a hardware change.

The phone didnt fall, didnt got wet.

i think the sd card was in the internal storage, as an emulation, i thik idk much about that. (but i never used one, just the internal storage)

If i try to mount an sd it just doesnt happens the only thing i can do sd wise is erase all data in the sd

So basically now idk what to do, i wish i could keep my stuff, idk its still there, i guess the term for this is my storage unmounted, so using adb to mount it back would work?

idk i also did the putting it in tmp and disconecting it and nothing im literally going insane and have slept like 2 hours per day, so thanks for taking your time to atleast review my problem

also sorry for the bad formatting, english isnt my native language.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dekkon3:
Hey,

So I'm on a stock 5.1.1 and updated to the latest Google Photos version, which I think screws with my devices HW acceleration. Basically , after updating I can't watch any HD videos without the frames stuttering, the screen sometimes blacks out in middle of viewing videos as well. Searching around I found that more people experience this, but it isn't that widespread. The problem goes away if I revert the update. Any help for additional workarounds would be appreciated.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dekkon3:
I was able to find another solution to this. With the latest photos app running, I went in to developer options and switched from NuPlayer to AwesomePlayer making things working smoothly again when playing videos.

If anybody can check what player they're running after updating the app and tell me if they experience video playback stutter with it, I'd appreciate it.

Seems like Google switched between default players on the different OS updates, I'm wondering if they've done the same and it didn't register or something.

Thanks.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeltdownSpectre:
I live in Pakistan and have an S5 G900F, I've been using 4G LTE on it for a few months now.

For the past 2 weeks I've been in the UAE, I switched out my local Pakistani SIM card, and put in a local UAE SIM card and was using 4G over there as well. It worked perfectly fine.

Last night, I got back to Pakistan and put my local Pakistani SIM back in and instantly the 4G data started working, however I was unable to Make/Receive Calls or Texts.

My phone is on LTE/WCDMA/GSM (Auto) mode so when I send a text, or call someone it automatically switches to EDGE (2G), because we don't have VoLTE in Pakistan.

However, when I send a text or try to call someone now, I can't. It stays on 4G, the signal bars disappear and it shows a Cross Icon next to the 4G one. Only data works but I can't call or text.

I was running CM12 all this time and the problem was with that.

I flashed Stock 4.4.2 this morning and it started working normally for about 10 minutes, until the same problem started again.

How do I fix it?

cache wipes and countless factory resets aren't helping. What do I do?

Here's a few screenshots for you guys:

I looked it up, other people on XDA also had this problem but no solution. However if there is one now, please let me know.

So yesterday when I switched on my phone, I found a blue patch on the screen, it was very visible on blackish backgrounds but it can't be seen on whites. Although it doesn't affect the phone, it's kinda annoying, I've only had the phone for 6 months. It tends to disappear partially at times but comes back again. I still have it covered under warranty. Does anyone know what causes this? so I can get it fixed or on the worse case, getting a new screen? I've attached 2 photos, the first one is mine. sorry for the bad quality, the other is an Oppo phone with the exact same problem.
