I Have A VodaPhone Ultra 6. Memory Is OK And I've Got Rid Of The Cache. But when I try to record videos it says camcorder failed. It also won't let me record videos on Snapchat or watch them. The videos I already have, if I try ti watch them they come out all stretched.... How do I fix it so I can watch videos again and record them? I've also deleted and re downloaded Snapchat ... No change.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] jimmbomb:
Hi everyone.

Can someone tell me how to take macro photos with my Sprint Note4??

I just cant figure it out.

Extreme close up. It seems to NOT focus at less that 3 or 4 inches..

I always have to 'back ou't more than what I want to.

Any and all suggestions are really appreciated.

Thanks alot
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] BigMosley:
I've wanted to know this also, seems like the stock camera is not capable of macro pictures.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] patrick_1:
Hold your finger down on the screen instead of tapping to focus. Hope this helps
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] jimmbomb:
It will do it for a sec..... when you long press the screen... focus on it.... just for a sec.... then blurr out.. and remain blurred when you release and snap the shutter......

thanks anyways......

BUT!!.. I did find a work around...... get as close as you can while it focuses sharp.. about 3-4 inches... just before the blur.....then while it's still sharp..... zoom in.... and snap the shutter....

So.... get close as you can while the focus works... hold still then zoom in for a macro.....

I hope this helps others.. The only thing I found so far.

Thankks
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PieOfJustice:
So when I bought my Nexus 6P I knew I was going to get the latest updates as soon as Google released them. I also expected to find minor bugs because we are getting updates much faster as well.

What I was not expecting is to both, bugs that make for a nearly unusable device and minor annoying ones. For my device the bugs that hit me hard are;

Max Volume Bluetooth Speaker Bug - Most bluetooth speakers are stuck in max volume mode and can't be turned down. Distorts the audio and creates a situation were you could blow out the speaker. Not all speakers are effected.

No LTE On Boot - Annoying to have but "fixable" by putting the device in Airplane mode. Otherwise no Data or SMS until you do and hope your phone doesn't reboot in you pocket while waiting for an important message.

No Phone Calls - You can't make or receive calls. As a result you can't check VM either. No amount of Airplane mode or rebooting will fix it. Neither will the phone service menu.

My concern here is that Google hasn't patched these bugs yet, even after releasing another update to 6.0.1 M. For now I'm fine with downgrading to 6.0.0M but I'm missing out on updates.

To add to insult any ROM build with the 6.0.1 source is effected by these bugs, so I can't even use most ROMs unless I find an older version.

I guess my main question here is this:

Is this normal? Does Google usually go so long without patching the bugs?

Seems really silly to have a phone, but not be allowed to make or receive calls at all and not be able to send SMS or email unless you do a few tricks first. It's a phone. Don't they test these things?

Disclaimer: I already know not all 6P or Nexus devices are effected. That does add to my confusion as they all should be the same exact device.

EDIT: I also wanted to add that when I got the device I could do all these things however even downgrading will no longer allow phone calls. Something is retaining.

That is just after being unplugged. Now when I listen to music via my BT headset there is about 10% or more drain per 30-60 min.

Let me know what else you need to help me find the bad guy :D

Just look at it and it's similar here as well. Just looked at screen time. Could it be Screen On Time? still I wish I would knew what else is draining the battery so bad. 1-2 minutes of using the phone from 100% and about 1-2% is lost already.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
I am running stock rooted but the same service under Kernal is the same one on my phone that is always at the top but I am not have battery drain issues like that at all. Although my thread here http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-style/help/bluetooth-power-usage-mm-t3282722 details the issues I have experienced with Bluetooth draining my battery at a high rate. I think there is something going on with the BT on this phone as my Samsung GS4 with the exact same app's installed never uses any BT at all unless I am connected to BT. The MXPE uses BT a ton when I have BT enabled even if I am not connected to anything at all. I agree with one of the other posters that something with your device related to an app or kernel is eating up the battery. Not sure about mine being an app or not, but it could be. I just think the MXPE MM load has some bug maybe with the BT. Who knows but I hate having to turn BT off just to get great battery performance.

Random thought, do you have GasBuddy installed? I know some people who were having trouble with it lately. Apparently it uses bluetooth so pumps can beam you offers.

GasBuddy started hitting bluetooth constantly and causing problems. I'd think it would give you a bluesleep wakelock. Just occurred to me since you said bluetooth seems to be your main trigger.

[XDA Assist] Don Swavey:
Hey I am a young android enthusiast and just like many others, I love android very much. When I first heard android I was too happy with my Sanyo Incognito and I didn't care what my dad was talking about. Now many years later in, I am so overwhelmed with android.

Maybe too overwhelmed.

It has come to me that their are many cellular companies all competing for price and blah blah blah. Well this has come to the conclusion where many of us are 'throttled' by our services. This is a big problem.

If you don't have a really stubborn mind, you will get nowhere in this world and stuck all of the time. But that's not my issue.

My issue is that it is really so hard to find anything on the web for things I need, which would be simple necessities for anyone.

Like searching on how to build a android game on android; on an android, searching Google for what is the best most fastest customizable phone ever, and then looking for a budget version, searching Google on how to root a phone and then getting bumbuzzled by ads and wrong videos, and by people trying to make their living off of youtube by paying them to make there video come first and all of that.

Well I am tired of this, and I am pretty sure everyone else trying to do the same thing is tired of it (probably more tired than me, and have a much bigger headache than me)

This has slowly happened here at XDA I believe and here's why. If I look up "top phones" right now in the search bar, the first result I get will not be about that. If I look up "best customizable phone" the same thing will happen, and this will happen if I try to search up a lot of other things as well.

If that problem can be fixed and I can look up

anything

without going to the second page that will be amazing for all of us.

A quick note:

I am not a stubborn person, actually I am open to anything really. I am pretty sure the developer:regular android user ratio is pretty far off.

Sooooo, why not when I get on XDA their is an tutorial that is so epicly easy to understand( you'd have to be stubborn or insane) not to understand it, that bassically greets you to XDA and starts you off on the journey to learn the way of developing! Yess, I mean a tutorial that anyone can see when get on XDA and read it and reread whenever, and because its so easy and always their, anyone can become a developer by following the procedures! I believe that will get the weight off of all of you pioneer developers. :good:

Make XDA the easiest thing on the planet, then I will be able to log on to Google one day and be to a website where a bunch of people are able to help me make a game and device all for free. And what do we do after that? wow there would be nothing else to do. :laugh: :rolleyes: :eek: :eek: :eek: :cyclops: :(

Who knew "CUSTOMIZABLE" is NOT a word in the dictionary!!! OMG, I am so going to add that word to the dictionary!!! :D !!!

customizable : able to customize,

"John rooted is Verizon Phablet somehow, now he got unlimited hotspot for no extra monthly cost. Did I mention that his phablet was fully customizable? Like I mean he could swipe the apps he uses the most on his app drawer!!! THATS AMAZING!

Hello,

I have fond that if you put your TTF file in the [GWD_install_dir]/font directory and restart the tool, the font is made available as a TTF font in the tool. It is also correctly exported and used to the watch.

[Samsung Gear S2] cnguinn:

[Samsung Gear S2] kimvette:
Be sure to check the licenses on the typefaces you use; you don't want to get nailed for copyright infringement. I suppose this is why the typefaces need to be in the application's font directory as opposed to its just using the system typefaces, as the .ttf gets bundled into the rpm, er, tpk.

At first glance it's dumb that the application is case sensitive on Windows and OS X (both are merely case-retentive unless you enable case sensitivity) but it's actually quite logical (one of the few smart things about GWD at this point); you're building packages which are destined for a platform which is case sensitive rather than merely case retentive.
