Here are two pictures showing the focus problem: https://goo.gl/photos/sBrVuCNnvt3U3Luk6

In the first one the small bridge and buildings in the center and left are in focus. In the second one the Lionsgate Bridge (the big green one) and buildings on the left are in focus.

I know the lens has a wide aperture but at such a distance it shouldn't matter.

Here's an old photo from when I first got the phone https://goo.gl/photos/5cFBiLcU78Gp4h5V9 The left side is quite blurred even though I tried to focus on those buildings. I later took it to Sony repair center and they replaced the lens. It seems to be considerably better now, but corner blur is still inevitable.

The GSMArena one looks even worse in the corners and it's being shot in 4:3. That said, the shots aren't as good because the landscape photos have varying distance so blur is inevitable.

Hey guys, I've flashed firmware .185 complete fresh with full wipe. I think the camera quality gets better in my opinion [emoji3]

[Xperia Z5 General] frankm87:
One thing to test is RAW support with Camera FV-5 ( [MENTION=6922850]EQ2000[/MENTION] would know this ). I believe firmware .163 has RAW support, but there is a crash. Maybe this is fixed in .185
[Xperia Z5 General] Thechiller86:
I have camera fv-5 pro. And NO raw support (but PNG is working now) But sadly still no full resolution [emoji19] shutter speed and manual iso works now after fresh flash of FW .185

[Xperia Z5 General] frankm87:
Right, if I remember correctly, it's the latest (unofficial) camera software components for the Z5, which unfortunately require root, that provide raw support. Nonetheless, FV-5 is crashing.

Samsung, is that you?
[Xperia Z5 General] EQ2000:
I think so. Why else preach with no evidence and biased comparisions ad hominem. I mean just take a look, first they stack the Z5 against the S7 then S6 then s5 then S3.. Claiming each Samsung mobile superior while reality is that overall the Z5 is superior, pro in some areas, sub in others. Heck even the Z1 with mods beats all the Samsung phones in most areas. If anything S7 looses automatically by knocking itself out with some of the worst post-processing I've ever seen. I would expect such IQ from a cheap digital camera.. :cool:

About the camera!

If we want Sony to fix the camera on the Z & X series then everyone need to contact their support all around the world.. Here in Sweden they only have reports that i´m the only one who has contacted them about the issue!!! They won´t do anything unless more people contact them... So chat, mail, facebook them now.. we want the best camera experiance possible, right? :D

[Xperia Z5 General] TobbeSwe:
I´ve contacted them through their website, facebook and email many times about this but many more has to do so if we want any changes.. We need to be vocal if we want a better camera experiance!

This is what the swedish sonymobile support said to med in swedish through facebook chat.. Use translate if you don´t understand swedish.

According to them i am the only one who has been vocal about the camera!

i've been using the cm 13 night owl 4.2 beta on my SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE GTn-7000 for like a week without any issues but recently my phone froze so i restarted after that im getting no sim card error. at first i thought its a bug but its still there.

things i tried

1. restarted (many time)

2. cleared caches, re-installed rom

3. thought might be problem with the sim so tried with outher simcards and problem still exists.

4. tried almost everything (haven't tried the stock rom)

hope you guys find me a quick fix, thank you
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Go to your phone Settings >> About phone. Do you see the IMEI, baseband in there?

If no, your EFS file might be corrupted or deleted. If you didn't have a backup then you might wanna Google for help.

If yes, check your SIM slot and make sure the gold pins are all there.

Hi guys,

I was thinking about giving F2FS a run on my old one. But as I am sticking around with CM13 nightlies, which means flashing new builds every now and then, I do not fancy tinkering a lot with the setup just for F2FS. Is there an easy flash setup?

cheers
[ONE General] :
fast maybe not, easy yes

use [MENTION=237269]sultan[/MENTION]xda rom with kernel mod or Du as they updates in 3 weeks

use unofficial twrp 3.0.0.1 for converting to F2fs

backup to pc

this 1time work is of 30 min but seems u consider this long so say no, it makes little diff to one plus one as its fast enough and smoothness is not guaranteed

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ragusa12:
I have been installing android on my HD2, I followed a guide but I'm not allowed to post the link. I installed hspl4, then CustomRUU, then MAGLDR, then ClockWorkMod, then NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-HWA V2.8 from zip on sd card.

After 4 hours trying to make it work, it finally did. Now there's just 2 problems:

Every app crashes constanly, some wont start

There's only 400kb space left in the internal storage, so I can't install anything.

I believe I have installed android NAND, though I can't quite figure out what this means. When following the guide my phone said I needed to make a EXT 4 partition on the SD card. So I did that manually. I used the 250 MB version of clockwork.

I was wondering if it is possible to install and run android on the SD Card, so there would be more internal storage.

I have never done anything like this before, so I don't have any experience, but I tried to choose the NativeSD (SD-EXT) option instead of NAND with DataOnEXT. But when I boot AD SD it says ssSD kernel open failed

#EDIT

I whiped it, then I tried making a bigger EXT4 partition of 1 gb. Now it works. I am pretty sure I installed it NAND again, which I think means on the internal storage, but the internal storage is now 1 gb, the size of the partition.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Robbie P:
well done, and welcome to the forum. The "internal storage" that the android rom "sees" is your ext4 data partition on your sdcard. That is how DataOnExt works. NativeSD does the same, using ext4 partition for system as well.

The NAND is the real internal storage.

Glad you got it sorted :good:

Edit; perhaps, when trying NativeSD, you didn't specify which folder (usually called NativeSD) on your sdcard to boot from, using magldr menu 10. services / 1. bootsettings / 3. ad sd dir then scrolling down to NativeSD folder. Then 2. boot ad sd

But since the update I've got regulary disconnects. Special here: I don't have to toggle Bluetooth on either site.. Only try to force a reconnect and mostly it works.
