The way i see it, it's not a big problem. It's a common wide lens issue. If i'm on your position, i'll just keep the phone as it is. others result might be sharp from edge to edge, but it is really a narrow lens.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vyshgorado:
it seems you have a problem, your photos give an idea that there is a displacement of elements of the camera module, because the right side is blurred little less than it should be, and the left side is blurred more than it should be. I, I think almost perfectly semetrichno blurry right and left, later lay out a photo, and you can put the photo Made in so: put your phone camera at the table, or close the lens and take a picture in auto mode, photos need to do so that you can see the blue noise, it is a hypothesis, where it has been, and I think this can be judged from the defect. Please upload pictures, I have to see it, it can give more understanding of the problem for me, for you and for all.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWarKeeper:
To be able to detect the blurr properly, you need to have your phone leveled properly when taking the picture, for example in most of your pictures you take them from a weird angle, like from up to down, or from down to up, you need to take the photo exactly in the front leveled to the same angle as the monitor/book or whatever.

I hope you know what i mean.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theprince1991:
No problem. "DSC_0377" is the rotated picture. Thank you for helping me with this issue.

I'm not sure it really bothers me, I will only notice it when I look for it and sometimes it doesn't look as severe as other pictures. Also by looking at the camera lens it DOES seem pretty much straight. I probably will not go through the hassle of returning/repairing. Maybe I will try to get it repaired near the end of it's warranty :P (a year in the UK I think).

No worries, I don't think I understood 100% what you said but I put the phone face down on my table and took a picture. There's more light coming from the bottom left but I think that is where the flash is located. If there are any other tests I can conduct for the community please let me know :good:

Pictures:

(1st one - "DSC_0375" is taken normally)

(2nd one - "DSC_0377" is taken upside down)

(3rd one - "DSC_0376" is the one requested by vyshgorado)

Thank you guys for helping a guy out!

EDIT: I'm not sure why the first picture is upside down... on my desktop it is the correct way up.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theprince1991:
Ah yeah I think I know what you mean. Basically have the phone level? If the above photos are not good enough then I'll retake them, thank you for the advice though.

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe_dude:
I took a look at both pics, and there is a bit of corner blurring in both. But I can't say if that's actually a lens problem or just do wind, lighting conditions, hand movement, etc. Normally, the problem shows up only on one side, so when the phone is rotated, the blurring should have followed. It doesn't look like that is what is happening here.

Okay, so I need you to do another, more conclusive, test. Take a pic indoors, where you have good lighting. Set the camera on a stand/mount/wall - something that will hold it steady (no hand-held pics, please), and use the self-timer, so you don't have to physically touch the phone. Then take the same pic using the timer, rotating it 180 degrees.

Basically, I need a couple of comparison pics where I can rule out any other external factors. Take a pic of some objects at, say, 2m to 4m away (or 5 to 10 ft). Blank wall is no good, as there isn't any details to see blurring. If you have time, take a few sets of pics of different objects/background. Makes it a bit easier to judge with more data.

I can't see any blur on your photos lol.

Cool, sorry I've been a bit busy, it's probably going to be impossible for me to do this in natural sunlight as by the time I leave work it's already dark!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vcaddy:
Hi there, ur advice is apreciated, but dont u think that any fone sitting on a stand with a superior lighting conditions will get the pic 100% right ?

In my case m not having any distortion but rather lots of blurr, and i think the reason for this is bcuz once u snap the pic it takes abt 1 sec to 1.5 sec to fully take the pic.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sh4rkill3r:
you are blind then. the first have blur at left and the second is with phone rotated with blur at right. is pretty visible.

Ok here are some pics

Ok, thought I'd upload some photos.

I'm not a pro

Just an average joe.

They were all done with superior auto.

I don't think I have the blurring issue due to the misaligned lens.

Low light performance is an absolute abomination though (I don't have any because I delete them) Does anyone want to share camera settings with me that allows for decent low light performace?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tumeconnais:
Hi everyone,

Previously on a Nexus 5, I bought a LG G4, everything fine, but I love to tweak my phone.

So I want to know if it's possible to re lock the bootloader when you unlock it with the LG g4 guide on official web site.

I know unlocking bootloader avoid guarantee and everything, but relocking it can put the guarantee back, am I right?

On my old Galaxy S3, it was possible to return everything to stock, bootloader, counter of flash and everything.

Thanks for your help.

Good day,

I followed every step in order to get my S4 I337-M working with JDCTeam][6.0] latest build.

It works great but am experiencing a small issue, whenever the screen goes dark or phone goes into sleep mode, when i come back from sleep mode the screen is unresponsive and i have no choice but to take out battery and reboot my phone.

I would like to know if there is anything you could do to help me with this issue.

Thank you so much for your time.

I encounter this as well, but to a much lesser extent. In my case, it occasionally happens on a reboot while connected to power. There's not much to do except press and hold the power until the screen shuts down, and then power up again.

The thing to do, if possible, is get a log and give it to a member of JDCTeam. Without a log, they're not going to be able to fix it. The thread mentions the recommended tool for this.

Changed APN from "At&t Nextgen" to "At&t pta" and LTE sped up

Today I noticed that my LTE speeds were pretty slow, compared to previous LTE phones. I was getting about 6 to 7mbps down and less than 1 up. I checked my APN and it was listed under "At&t Nextgen".... I changed it to "At&t PTA" and then checked my LTE speeds again and was getting 29mbps down and 5 up.

hey buddy you are gonna wanna use ODIN to restore to stock and then put back TWRP and restore or reinstall..

search restore note 3 sprint on google
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jisoo:
TWRP doesn't touch the bootloader. /boot refers to the boot partition which includes the kernel and initial ramdisk. The bootloader is on a separate partition.

In addition, kitkat and lollipop bootloaders are similar enough that the TWRP and custom kernels work same on both.

Do keep in mind that if you flash stock ROM through Odin, it will replace your recovery with Samsung's stock, so you need to reflash TWRP.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liadanaf:
so if i want to return from lollipop to kitkat the only way is to flash stock kitkat from odin?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jisoo:
Depends on what you mean.

If you are just talking about the bootloader, you can flash that and the radio through Odin separately.

If you are talking about the ROM, then typically you would flash stock through Odin.

If you are talking about custom ROMs, then you don't need to care about which bootloader you have.

Let me start off by saying two things, The phone will boot up normally, and I used Odin (3.07) to try and root it. Long story short, i used the wrong .md5 file on accident (VRBLK3 instead of VRALEC) and now my wifi wont turn on. Its running 4.4.2 and I have tried resetting with the recovery mode bootup, and even trying to use the VRALEC file but it fails. Can anybody shed some light on my issue? Is it completely broken?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
Probably not completely broken. But, since you said you are on 4.4.2, before flashing anything else could you please verify installed modem and bootloader with either Phone Info app by vndnguyen from PlayStore or with Terminal emulator commands:

getprop ro.bootloader
getprop | grep version.baseband

(I'm thinking you may need to change modem to match bootloader, but let's check.)

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dohouch:
Hope your TWRP sticks, I'm new to this and it took me 3 attempts to get it to stick.

To get into recovery

Hold both power button and volume down button pressed

At first sight of LG logo release power button 1 second, Still holding volume down, then repress power button.

You should now get white screen with just 2 options, select "Reset" , Select with Power button, scroll with volume up/down

Again get white screen and confirm reset

If TWRP is on phone it should now appear.

If its not you are in for a Factory Reset

:

Now do a default backup in TWRP (very handy this)

Then move systemless root zip to phone.

In twrp select install find your "systemless root zip " flash , then reboot using "System" DO not accept option to root your phone offered after selecting- reboot>system.

Hope its goes well

I am on the same boat as OP. I unlocked the bootloader after updating to Marshmallow, so I didn't have TWRP from Lollipop. Now, even though it says that the flashing went okay, there is no recovery to boot into. Using "adb reboot recovery" it shows the android logo with the exclamation mark. If I do it using the hardware buttons, I get the LG's menu to wipe everything or exit.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dohouch:
If you have root there are many apps on play store such as : quick boot, simple boot, quick reboot. Install one of these and and they all all have options for reboot, hotboot, boot to recovery, etc. etc.

I have TWRP on my phone and if I use the standard way to enter recovery , power+volume down, then I will get the standard LG recovery screen but when I accept the recovery options there, it takes me to TWRP
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante897:
That's the problem, I don't have root. I need TWRP to flash the SuperSU zip, don't I?

EDIT: Wait, do I need to say yes on the stock LG recovery first? The one that says wipe everything?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dohouch:
@ Dante897 No, if you don't have TWRP then don't. don't say yes to LG Recovery or you'll loose everything . You can also run TWRP on your PC and install systemless root zip that way. That maybe what I did, I can't exactly remember now.

I'm off to bed now, last night was a late night too.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante897:
I figured it out. You aren't supposed to flash the recovery., you are supposed to boot to it, flash SuperSU and then use Flashify to install TWRP. I did that, but I flashed the wrong SuperSU (I am an idiot I know) and my phone won't boot now. Currently I am in download mode and downloading the rom with LG Bridge . You can follow the guide here if you want http://xdaforums.com/g4/general/unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-root-t3128241 but whatever you do DO NOT flash SuperSU 2.46, grab the newest from here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64161125&postcount=3

I cannot say that it will work, all I can tell you is that 2.46 certainly doesn't work.

EDIT: Alright, I let LG Bridge install the update, no wipe happened. I did the process again, this time I flashed SuperSU v2.62-3 and everything went well and my phone is now rooted.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] platypus78:
Greetings fellow flashers… much as I´ve tried to UTFSE I haven’t found a clear answer/info to the question in object, so here goes

When I run the standard test on* Ubuntu I can get a quite varied range of results for my phone – from about 15.000 to a shave under 30.000. Unsurprisingly enough, most of the variations in these results come from the CPU governor, settings related hotplug mechanism and the GPU… one group of options I never previously touched were the I/O options (scheduler for internal storage was always on the standard “CFQ” and I also left the read ahead buffer size to its default settings)

Today I decided to give these options a go and here´s where the surprise came: pretty much any option I tried simply trounced my “optimal” results of approx.. 30´ 000 points… I tried a couple of I/O schedulers (I remember sioplus and zen for sure) and as far as the the increasing the to 1024 kb (instead of the standard 128kb for internal and 256 for external)… the effect of changing the scheduler was to reduce the ubuntu score to about 20´000 (best case) and sometimes quite a bit less than that…. So now for the questions:

1. What exactly is the effect of these scheduers & the buffer?

2. Why do these changes in scheduler/buffer size, which have no clear effect

3. Are there optimal settings for these schedulers & buffer size? Does changes in the settings have any consequence on battery life?

*

thanks in advance for all your feedback!

Bump - can anyone help ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
The I/O scheduler has to do with reading and writing data, basically. I can't really explain it.

Having a different scheduler can give you better ui responsivness and app opening times. Results vary.

ZEN is said to be better for gaming. FIOPS seems to be the best all-round performer. And bfq is battery friendly.

Increasing the cache size should also benefit. A 2048kb size should be enough.

Don't expect wonders, though.
