[Android General] xperiamdual:
I am a electronics engineering student and was working on bio-metric security systems, and this idea popped up in my head that what if i can use my phone's fingerprint sensor to unlock door wirelessly using ir blaster or wifi. a code(encrypted) will be transferred using ir blaster. that will be decrypted at door lock system. that code will be produced only when fingerprint is valid.

the idea/concept is in premature stage any modifications in concept , and help on how i can make such app on android is appreciated. :)
[Android General] sun1000:
Nice idea .but IR blaster ? really ? in that case, your options on phones are limited and plus fingerprints on some devices such as Note4 or S5 are SAMSUNG based (note 7 or S7 is using native MM APIs) means you cant really freely access Fingerprint stuff easily .but i think if someone works on it .it would be something;):)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] FireEye:
got the tablet today, and i got a problem, the onscreen buttons are too sensitive!

if i put my finger very close to the screen, without touching, the onscreen buttons registering multiple touches.

its a problem because a single touch on the back button registers multiple touches. how to turn it off?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] russ4h:
I have this exact problem. I also just purchased the YT3-850F tablet and I'm wondering if this is a known issue or if it is broken.?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] paul_ius:
I have the same problem. Sometimes, when I'm holding the tablet it registers touches on the sides of the screen even though my finger like a quarter of a centimeter away. I think it's done on purpose to better pick up touches of pencils and pens.

Hello,everybody:

I had universal and eten m600, after updating the sdhc driver, the universal can recognize the 8g sdhc, but the eten can't do, it shows me 3.5 gb. I once saw someone's universal separate 8g into 2 4g, like storage1 and storage2.

Could someone tell me how to format 8g sdhc into 2 4g??I guess if i could do this, m600 can use full storage.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nitemare3219:
LG is falling behind in the smartphone display world. My Note7 is the best phone display I have ever had, by far, and that is no exaggeration. Yet here we are with another flagship release by LG who are using dated technology on the most important component of a phone - the display. IPS contrast sucks. Contrast is a huge deciding factor in image quality - perhaps the most important. Additionally, LCDs and IPS in particular have substantial pixel response motion blur over AMOLED. I HAD to return my HTC 10 because I couldn't stand using the display with how muddy it looked compared to the AMOLED on my 6P, even though HTC touted their display as having a fast response rate. Simple actions like pulling down the notification shade produced easily noticeable differences between the devices. LG is well aware of how great OLED is - they invest billions in their OLED TV division. I have spent $7,000 this year between their 65" and 55" OLED TVs, and they are mind-blowing. LG needs to either purchase Samsung display panels, or invest in their seriously lacking mobile division, because they're going to end up like HTC sooner or later at this rate.

I hope this IPS panel is at least an improvement. The contrast is likely no better than 2000:1, which is great for an IPS, but poor overall. I'm not stoked about the always-on-display in the ticker area either. It is far less useful than the G5's or Note7's - another step backwards. And at night, LCD always-on-displays also look like crap with tons of halo/light bleed. The lack of detailed performance specs at the launch event was disappointing. Using the SD 820 was a poor choice, and you could have easily thrown 6GB of RAM in there. And launching in a few weeks is idiotic as well. They could have capitalized on the Note7's recall and gotten their device out before the iPhone 7 if they wanted to. We'll be lucky to have it by October. There better be a decent promotion, because I am on the fence about buying this phone with its poor display, less than stellar battery (even if replaceable), lack of water resistance, and ugly UI. I must give credit where it is due, and that is the audio and camera capabilities are out of this world (except for the 5 MP front camera - WHY) - and I appreciate them destroying the competition in those VERY important areas., and keeping a removable battery with a premium and durable design. But this phone could have been the best of 2016 if they wanted it to be. This phone hardly has any advantage over the Axon 7 for far less cash.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] igotroot:
In their defense, LG manufactures MANY flat panel TVs with excellent picture quality. I suspect their choices of phone screens are based upon energy consumption, cost effectiveness, and the plain ole theory that such a small size doesn't require an extravagantly engineered screen. Don't get me wrong, I love a super-amoled / OLED screen personally. When I compared the S7 vs my G5, I honestly was like....hmmmmmmmmmm, wish I had that screen though.. LOL

But from what I have read, the V20 screen is supposed to be far superior to that of the V10.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
AMOLED has a major minus: screen burn, and the white turns muddy over time.

G Flex used to have AMOLED, but it turned out LG abandons it.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nitemare3219:
AMOLED doesn't burn in normal use conditions anymore - this isn't 2012. The white also does not turn "muddy" over time - whatever the hell that means. You're making stuff up. Sure, some panels have had white uniformity issues... but Samsung may be resolving that as my Note7 is literally perfect. There is no defense for LG here. They either were too cheap to invest in their mobile division's display panels, or they are behind in their mobile division... which is funny considering they make the best OLED TVs in the world. Basically the only OLED TVs.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] FAUguy:
I've had an OLED display with my Note 2, 3, and 4. I too had hoped that LG was going with OLED this time for the V20, since they do make OLED TVs, but instead looks like they are still using the same LCD that is on the V10. At least Samsung stepped up the OLED on the Note 7 to support HDR.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] mekanismen:
You're very unlikely to see any light bleed on a high quality IPS-screen. I've never seen light bleed on an iPhone for example, but I had really bad light bleed on my Nexus 5. I also have absolutely zero light bleed on my OnePlus One.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] rivera02:
The v10 had significant light bleed from the second screen.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sharpshooterrr:
Can you please explain further?

Don't all amoled screens burn in regardless of use because of it's organic components?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nitemare3219:
I had a G4 and V10 both with terrible light bleed on a corner that I had to exchange. Also, IPS glow is a huge problem, and at night you don't get true blacks which is especially distracting with the second screen.

Exactly.

That isn't burn in. Burn in is permanent image retention and an actual ghost image always being on the display. You may be thinking of OLED wear over time, becoming less bright - but it takes a significant amount of time for this. Theoretically I suppose if you used an OLED display for several hundred thousand hours it could eventually get so dim that you wouldn't want to use it anymore. But you are never going to hit that amount of hours. You will have moved onto something else long before then.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] samep:
My Galaxy S1 equivalent screen on my Samsung Epic was used 3 straight years as primary phone and didn't fade or burn-in.

I've read cliches' like this for years and mostly do not agree. The limitation I saw with using the older 2010 era Amoled screen was screen brightness in daylight. That's no longer an issue with newer Amoled panels since 2014 and always improving to the point Samsung Amoled panels exceed LCD panels in virtually every use category including brightness and efficiency.

Other users have experienced burn-in. My mother-in-law burned her S6 screen by charging phone and playing solitaire at same time. Not sure but I think fast charging was enabled. Heat combined with images that are continually displayed and not pixel shifted factor heavily with burn-in. So yes, it's possible but never happened to me. (Samsung does utilize pixel shift in the status bar to prevent burn-in. I'm unaware if pixel shift is used in third party applications like solitaire; her game used white cards on green background. Card images were retained and didn't respond to typical scrolling images to alleviate it.)

I don't use fast charging unless needed. Temperature can be bad on battery and display. I also try to avoid using my phone while in early stages of charging but my Note 4 does revert to slow charging when display is on.

IIRC, I read LG was transitioning to Amoled screens in late 2017. Apple is rumored to be switching to Amoled as well.

I've been known to squeeze 9 hours screen on time on my Note 4's stock 3220mah sized battery when mostly browsing on a single charge. Very much wanted the Note7 but locked bootloader kept me away before their battery became a headline exploding issue. Was also disappointed with edge only screen version and sealed battery. What an open for LG! I looked to LG to address shortcomings but lack of Amoled screen and locked bootloader prospect have me still looking and undecided for 2016 offerings thus far.

I may consider V20 if the bootloader was unlocked to allow TWRP and custom kernels. But I'd miss the Amoled screen. The battery door latch is cool though; I didn't want to lose removable battery feature and see little reason to trust Samsung's batteries to last 24 months without a letdown.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] mhw100:
Would the v20 screen be less bright than the N7?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] lesmil:
Yes, it is 2016 and burn in at OLED displays still occurs and will occur. No matter how it's called (supertrooper amoled etc). At my SG7E, I got burn in after 10 days - I used Waze 2 hours every day; brightness at 50% etc. I've been told thay would replace a display as it was in warranty, but I decided to get money back (14 days period) and I will never go for OLED again.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sammae7:
ISP was what has me interested in this device, despite swearing LG off. I do not like OLED, mostly for the burn in issue. Yes, the technology has improved but burn in still exists.

Regarding the screen, I do have one question. It's touted as having a 5.7 inch screen but isn't part of that the second screen? If you can't shut off the second screen and use that space for displaying what's on the main screen, then the device has a 5.5 inch screen, not 5.7.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] planetbeen:
Should be the main screen that is 5.7 inches. That's how the v10 is. With the second screen it's closer to 5.9"

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sammae7:
That's be nice. A competitive price and I could be swayed back to LG, provided they offer an unlocked model and do so reasonabley quick.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] FAUguy:
The V10 an V20 really have one LCD. It is just partitioned into the main 5.7" display, and the top ticker display.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jal3223:
I'm glad that they decided on LCD instead of AMOLED. Despite what has been said in this thread, burn-in is still happening especially when on screen navigation buttons are used. That's why Samsung avoids them. Also uneven degradation happens fairly quick when the status bar is black, which is the case with many apps such as Chrome.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jtl999:
I for one am happy that LG using IPS instead of OLED because the majority of OLED screens flicker at 240hz, which causes eye problems I seem to have eye damage and cannot use OLED screens at all.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] wing_addict_usa:
I have an amoled burn in in the top of my screen note 3 and 4

Technically it's brighter since the white isn't usually used, the rest of the screen lost a couple percent brightness

It's amoled ageing not burn in. I'm probably getting a v20 if it's rootable. Almost got a note 7 but can't stand no root, sealed battery and fires. I'll admit I'd rather have amoled but ips is ok. Kinda sucks on nexus 5, hope v20 is much better.

Dear Friends,

I haven't made backup of Ta partition at the time of unlocking the bootloader. I relocked my bootloader without applying drm fix. So i was able to have Official Software Updates but the Camera was having some errors. Was not able to use video cam (App Freezes) Green lines while opening camera on third party apps. This problem was fixed when bootloader is unlocked. When unlocked i was able to use Camera without any problems. For getting X Reality Engine and Software updates i tried to apply DRM Fix but after applying drm fix the camera problem(Which was there on relocked booloader) came back. Is there any way it can be fixed? Thanks in advance.

The problem fixes when i remove drm fix but i wont be able to use X Reality Engine and Software updates.

Is there any alternate method to have XReality And Software updates with the fully functional Camera?

We browse the line "ro.hwcamera.lightpainting=false" and change to "true"

Save it, restart and you will have the option in the camera

You need have the bootloader unlocked and be root

The steps to take are:

Download and unzip this file

With Root Explorer, copy the extracted folder "Multi Screenshot" to /system/app and give it permissions of screenshot

Reboot and when we do a screenshot will give us the option multiscreenshot
