[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RGold55:
Unhappy with my 920I battery life, I've found a workaround that suits my usage profile, as I wait for the better battery juice management promised by MM.

On my rooted device, I installed No-frills CPU Control and configured it as shown in the attached image, results shown on the other screen capture.

Surprisingly, the performance is perfectly ok for my daily personal and business usage of mail, WhatsApp (voice and text) and voice calls, some photo and video capture, with WiFi and 4G always on. I have no lags and no screen tear at all, personal and business usage meaning no music, no games and no youtube.

Cheers
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nukesnooper:
OK; I'm an idiot. I ran over my Note 3 for the 3rd time, only this time it had landed on it's face and the textured pavement put a small crack in the top corner of the screen. Barely visible; but it killed the display. I can still read / write via USB and it still rings, so the innards are OK.

My question is this: I've already disassembled it, and decided that for the cost difference; I'm going to replace the front display as well as the front housing.. I see a number of replacement parts, but it seems as though the lower priced ones say N900A "compatible", or don't have the Samsung logo at the top. I'm assuming that these aren't true OEM parts. Would that be your take on it, as well? They're generally 20-30 dollars less than the ones that have the logo.

What would you suggest?

Thanks!

Hello all.

Probably you've heard about the app FreeDCam. The developers of this app, defcomg and troopii, have created a special version for our phones. I have taken some pics with this app.

This is with the stock camera:

I tried to make the camera focus on the edge of the seashell.

And this is with FreeDCam with manual focus:

Stock camera:

Here again i tried to focus on the edge of seashell.

FreeDCam:

Next photos are only taken with FreeDCam because with the stock one i couldn't focus most of the time:

Also with this camera we can take raw images. I converted them to jpeg without modifying them.

I mention that all these pics were taken indoors (in low light) and are a little bit noisy. But i wondered when i saw manual focus for our phones and i wanted to show you some pics.

I say again: this is not my app. The original app can be found on Play Store. And the official thread of the app is: http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/camera-freedcam-4-0-3-t3115548. But the devs have modified the app to work on our devices. I would like to share the app with you but i can't attach apks yet because i am a new user. How can i share it?

---------- Post added at 11:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 AM ----------

resolution 176x144???
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] jrazvan:
Of course you can capture raw. If you click on the jpeg button in the bottom left corner you can choose to take pics in .dng format which is a raw file, an unprocessed file which can be opened in many programs.

And to change the resolution just swipe the screen from left to right.

.

Also to open the manual menu, swipe from bottom to top.

[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] jrazvan:
I don't know. But exactly for that purpose, when FreeDCam is installed, it is also installed FreeDCam Viewer with which you can preview raw files.

I installed the trial version of Snap Camera from Google Play Store and it is indeed faster and has a nice interface. But for me, if i set the focus to manual mode, it gives me the error "set camera parameters failed". And Snap Camera doesn't have manual shutter speed and focus peak.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Bluecharge:
Hi,

I´m really eager to know if LG finally is smart like Samsung and HTC, to use the space below the display for control keys instead of wasting part of the screen. Come on LG, it´s not so hard to learn! I am not willing to carry a large, unhandy device which is not even capable of using the

complete

screen for displaying contents.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jedthehumanoid:
Buy a Samsung then. I prefer soft keys. Hardware keys are retarded.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] geoff5093:
Is this the first time you've used an Android phone? The old ancient phones used capacative and hardware buttons, on-screen buttons are the newer way of interacting with your device that is replacing capacative and hardware buttons. The benefits of course mean you can have smaller bottom bezels, the buttons can hide when using immersive apps like videos and photos, they can change based on your preference or when the OS gets updated, etc.

Physical and capacative buttons are archaic.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Bluecharge:
Well, not the smartest kind of an answer but that was to be expected - fanboys even would argue bull**** to gold.

Seems you never used a modern smartphone with these softkeys integrated in screen but

below

the display.

Its not very hard to understand, that this is the way to get the most of the surface area of a smartphone.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] rivera02:
No question the g5 will have software keys. I have to say after bouncing between LG and Samsung phones I much prefer Samsung's setup. The bottom bezel on my v10 isn't any smaller than that on my note 4, so LG could easily integrate capacitive buttons on their devices. Yes the software keys disappear in certain apps, but that just means it takes another swipe or tap to get them to reappear, which is only adding an extra step to exiting an app.

I also much prefer Samsung's home/fingerprint sensor setup. You can turn on the screen with the home button (no need for double tap to wake,) and when using the fingerprint security you can still unlock the phone when it's laying on a desk or in your car cradle without having to input a pattern or pin.

I'm not saying software keys are an absolute deal breaker, but they offer no benefit compared to capacitive keys and have several drawbacks.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Bluecharge:
Thank you rivera02,

thats the best description about it, you brought it to the point.

Its not that Samsung smartphones are absolutely best, I think the G4 has many advantages like the changeable battery and the sdcard slot. But every oem builds in certian disadvantages, so everybody has the choice to take what annoys him or her the less ;)
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] geoff5093:
First off, they aren't softkeys if they are below the display, they are capacative keys. They can not change, they are printed into the phone itself. And yes, I had an S6 and Note 5 so I know well what they are like. Having to physically press a button is really annoying when trying to press it one handed, where the phone is already delicately balanced in your hand. For the capacative buttons, I much prefer on screen keys that disappear when you don't need them, and ones that you can change at will or when Android gets updated.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Bluecharge:
Hi geoff5093,

sorry that was my misunderstanding. You're right and I didn't mean hardwarebuttons but capacitive keys below the display. I personally think, that disappearing softwarekeys have much disadvantages, because you have to make them appear and this often interacts with the app you were using to this point. With capacitive keys below the screen they are available whenever you need them, they don't need any display space and they don't interact unwantedly with the before-used app.

The ideal way may be both of them. Capacitive keys below the screen and aditional softwarekeys for whoever likes to have an idividual layout. But I think that nobody would do this, as there seem not to exist any mod for additional softwarekeys e.g. for Samsung or HTC devices.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Jockson:
Softkeys have their benefits. They can be customized, moved around, even their appearance can be changed. However they DO waste screen space. Whenever these comparisons come up people claim that phones with sofkeys can/do have smaller bezels and that "sofkeys disappear when you don't need them anyway". The former is simply not true. Capacitive buttons take up so little space that you could fit them in any phone with softkeys. As for the latter, softkeys are still there 95% of the time I'm using the phone. Browsing/texting/using the dialer, they are still there making the usable screen noticeably smaller. It's the only thing I actually like about Samsung phones. Note 5 and Nexus 6P share the same screen size and yet the Samsung is smaller in hand AND has a larger usable screen area because no space is ever wasted on softkeys. LG G5 with sofkeys and 5.3" screen would mean roughly the same usable space as 5.5" LG G4 and also a more compact device. The bad thing is that in the case of this particular phone it would mean these modules would need to come with integrated capacitive buttons as well.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jimv1983:
I won't even buy a phone if it has hardware buttons. It's not 2011 any more.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] deadsea:
I kinda like soft keys actually, I never have to bother with which way is up when operating the phone in landscape and less oops I've hit the home/back key scenarios. I've done the whole HTC/Samsung/Sony/LG round from actual buttons, capacitive buttons and some weird capacitive dot thing.

If only they could figure out a better way to make buttons appear when in full screen. That's the only complaint since sometimes it will miss.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Waxim1:
Someone above said home button is better than double tap to wake. Wat a BS, lol. Are you from samsung or what? Following this approach, I am wondering why you did not say there should have been numeric hard keys to dial instead of touch screen. :D :P

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] umbrokhan:
capacative and hardware buttons, are the best for me.

on-screen buttons sometimes don't disappear when playing some games or sometimes on app's aswell.

they should have all 3, capacative and hardware buttons and on screen button.

if you want to use capacative or hardware botton use it. and if you don't like it then use on screen button by going to the setting and change it. like. like onePlus Two did.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] AMDZen:
No doubt. That is one of the most bizarre posts I have ever seen. Double tap to wake is a must for me now and any phone that doesnt have it is nearly a deal breaker. It is definitely better than hitting home and there is truly no way to logically argue that it is and yet somehow someone is trying.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Kickoff:
Sorry but I did not get the message of this thread. Even a device with capacitive keys needs place for those keys, not on the screen but on the device that will increase the size of the phone. Biggest screen on the smallest device is possible only with softkeys. And these can be hided by the system in particular application in order to use the entire screen.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jomansch:
...like my Oneplus Two...:good:
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] rivera02:
Lol well to each their own, but I think arguing that it's more convenient to tap a screen twice than to tap a button once is a pretty illogical argument. Much more so when you take into account the fact that LG has never gotten the double tap feature to work with one hundred percent accuracy.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] milan187:
I personally hate physical keys and cap ones are not great either. I would own a Samsung if it was not for their horrible setup. I guess it's good there is choice. You don't like the on screen keys, get a Samsung or something else that does not use them. I like the way LG does it, the way it should be is the way Nexus/Google does it.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jcadduono:
I think you guys are overestimating the amount of physical space required for hardware capacitive keys. It's entirely possible to build them into the smallest of bezels, they require very thin hardware and connectors which with some intuitive design will be easy enough to implement without sacrifices.

I'm on the side of the OP. When the manufacturer gives enough bezel space on the bottom for capacitive keys (the G5 most certainly does), there's really no good reason not to include them except manufacturing costs and users having an unreasonable dislike for capacitive keys.

When I mean unreasonable dislike, I'm referring to the fact you can just disable the capacitive keys and use soft keys if your device is not signature enforcing. (disable keys through kernel mod, and add softkeys to device props)

Good news though - it should be entirely possible for LG to provide a capacitive key module in the future if we request it from / complain to them enough. ;)

I mean, they practically asked for it.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jomansch:
capacitive keys wasting display space do hold me from getting a LG G5 or any other type of cellphone with "misplaced buttons". My Oneplus2's screen-to-body ratio is fine for me with the cap-buttons placed down it's bezel besides the fingerprint/homebutton. That is where they belong and I probably will stick to it for now...
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] nikqwik:
This is a troll post, right? What's the purpose of this "discussion" or "thread"? It's nothing that we can change, and it's worded in a such a way that a civil and logical back and forth discussion can not be had.

I mean LG (and most OEMs) have been doing this for YEARS. Even the HTC argument is rubbish. HTC m8 has soft keys, which I did own.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] XR01:
I thought hardware and capacitive buttons were supposed to go away, but they are still around because people like them. One of the fondest implementations of capacitive buttons was on the T-Mobile Galaxy SII. They worked well, and the proportion of screen to phone was decent. It's amazing that these days you find phones with so much bezel. I had the G2 for a while and loved it, but bringing up the on screen nav buttons is an extra annoying step, as well as accidentally pressing the home button. I tried the S6 for 2 months and the best things about it were the home button with instant fingerprint scanner, camera, and capacitive buttons to go back or multitask. I ended up selling it, because the regular performance wasn't that much better than G2. I'm on the One M9 now, but I'm again annoyed by the onscreen buttons taking up space on the screen. I still think Samsung's implementation of home button and capacitive buttons is the way to go. The fingerprint scanner on the back is a concession to not copy Apple or Samsung.
