[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Launchpadmcqu4ck:
Sadly nothing seemed to fix it. I did manage to again get a GPS fix but only in some places never the places I did when I first got the phone. It seems like the antenna is just weak all of a sudden. But to be honest I stopped working on it because my Verizon htc 10 was stolen shortly after posting this :/ I've got an Unlocked edition coming next week hoping to test the GPS and see if indeed it was my phone or if the areas I was in are the issue or what.
[Sony Xperia M5] arbalah:
Hello all,

After updating android 6, I think the camera quality is not so good as 5.1 version. Can anyone tell me why ?
[Sony Xperia M5] herman1988:
It's fine with mine.
[Sony Xperia M5] arbalah:
It can't focus correctly, always blurred from front camera. With the old version of android ( 5.1) it was perfect but now , I am using 6.0, and it always takes pictures blurred... please someone who can help me ?
[Android Head-Units] thesnake505:
Hello all,

I'm after a new head unit for my truck, I use the truck for a lot of off roading and for this I use an android based maping software!

So I'm after a single din android head unit with a flip up screen, the ability to transmit to other screens (thinking about a sunvisor screen) it would be nice if I could have a camera input or two, and the ability to connect my phone for handfree phone calls! Also due to the mapping software GPS capabilities, optinal it would be nice to plug a hddd or memory stick with into it for music input

Does anyone have any advice on what would fit my needs?

My only issue is ruggedness. Sounds like you may want to look at a tablet worth a holder.
[Android Head-Units] thesnake505:
I currently use a tablet, problem I have with it is the tablets I have used 7inch and 10 inch are very bulky, I like the idea of a headunit because it can retract, if I was to mount a tablet it would cover some of my other dials/controls! Also I use the truck for work every day and having a tablet on display wouldn't be a good idea

Is an android headunit really less rugged then the cd player I currently have??
[Android Head-Units] CadillacMike:
what vehicle is it?
[Android Head-Units] aplusmiami:
If you are comparing to a name brand unit like Kenwood or pioneer. I would have to say yes
[Android Head-Units] thesnake505:
It's a mitsubishi pajero,

I don't think ruggedNess would be a problem buts it's a risk I'm going to take!
[Android Head-Units] CadillacMike:
do they make a vehicle specific unit? that would be the best for less bumping around
[Android Head-Units] thesnake505:
Unfortunately not, it's just an old school single din head unit slot!
[Android Head-Units] rhacy:
A single din head unit with the flip out display will sooner than later break or wear out the motorized gear assembly or ribbon cable. This is especially true with any of the android head units available today and even more so when any of these units are used off road. That said, you can still listen to music on the android single din head units with the display retracted. Although, not being able to use the display while off road defeats the purpose of having it for gps or cameras etc.. To clarify a little more, I had a single din android hu in my 3rd gen montero limited (same as the larger size pajero or shogun, but not the sport), and the display was no where near strong enough to handle all the bouncing around while off road. In turn, I relocated the heater - ac controls to the wallet pocket in the upper center console and installed a double din joying hu. This may or not be an option for you too, depending on how your specific pajero dash, heater - ac controls, center console, and wallet pocket align.

As to the ability to transmit to other displays, I'm not aware of any decent android hu options for that except for maybe the Newsmy Carpad units that use hdmi out on a separate android box to feed its double din display. Please note that most android units will only display a dvd to another screen, and the dvd's only transmitted through the micro controller unit and not through the android system. Nonetheless, there may be a couple of different units out now that may be able to push what's on the main display to other displays, but again I'm not aware of any myself. Hopefully someone here will be able to chime in with some good suggestions for that.

In regard to hands free phone calls via bt to the hu, that's possible, although the voice quality and volume level can be sub par on many units without a hardware mod and a decent quality external mic.

For cameras, I set up a waterproof front camera just below the front bumper license plate frame that runs through the AV-in input. It's used as a front parking and off road camera. I also installed a rear waterproof back up camera with on-off switches, so it can be viewed at any time or turned off completely. Please note that neither of these cameras have dvr capabilities, so I installed a thinkware 750 front and rear camera kit plus three more 1080p dvr type cameras to help cover and record the front, rear, and side views.

With regard to using a hard drive or memory stick, both should work, but neither has been needed here. This is due to the joying hu having two micro sd card slots, and I've had no problem running fat32 formatted 64GB and 128GB sdxc cards packed with music, vids, pics, etc..

Bottom line is that you'll most likely regret a flip out hu unless you do not mind fixing or replacing it sooner than later. Plus, IMHO, most if not all aftermarket flip up displays are too slow, annoying, and clunky.

Best of luck,

R

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runekock:
I don't know if it will help, but try disconnecting the battery for several hours.

Long story: when rebooting, the kernel writes a special code to imem to tell what mode to reboot to. Imem is a special memory in the snapdragon chip. Maybe leaving the phone entirely without power will clear the imem, and maybe, just maybe that will help.

I really don't know what I'm talking about here, it is just a wild hunch.

Does anyone have any idea where we can find a replacement for rear camera lens , as many of us are facing scratches on the lens
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] SoNic67:
There is no separate lens, you need to replace the whole camera module. That's why I pay more attention to that rear lens than to the LCD screen that is protected with a glass protector.
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] Amit_timA:
I think Motorola should give a free lens panel replacement for Moto G4 plus users 'cause most of the phones have this issue including mine, I did notice that there's a little difference in the quality of pics taken from the rear camera now that I have a few scratches
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] SoNic67:
The lens on any photo camera need care in handling to avoid any scratches. Some pro lenses can take filters in front of the glass, but the point and shoot cameras don't.

Why would be different for the phone lens?
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] Amit_timA:
After doing some research on Google & our very own XDA I found out that the scratches are actually not on the camera glass but on the Oleophobic coating applied on the rear camera glass. There are lots of videos available on Youtube on how to remove scratches on mobile camera glass, the procedure usually needs regular white toothpaste or Rubbing Alcohol etc. My moto g4 plus's camera was giving blurred pics due to those scratches but I finally got rid of those issues. One thing is for sure that Moto has used a cheap quality Oleophobic coating on the rear camera glass & they must provide a replacement for that.

After my recent findings....I see that the olephobic coating on the rear camera glass got scratched. It is now of no use for me to use Colgate toothpaste or alcohol on the glass. Can someone tell me the permanent solution for this?

[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] aSuperSaiyanG0D:
Sadly I tried the toothpaste trick and it actually ended up making more scratches ?

However on my Nexus 7 2013 it removed all scratches ?

Is the Oleophobic coating thicker on our Moto G4?

Should I scrub the toothpaste for a longer period of time?
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] Gajanana:
Use Baking soda to remove scratches . It worked like a charm for me. Rub it for longer time until the camera quality is restored.
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] srgudhka:

[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] Iqbal Ansari:
Can you make a tutorial on how to remove the coating from the glass.
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] derausgewanderte:
ok, while looking at options to purchase a replacement camera glass for my daughter's Moto G4, I couldn't find anything that was reasonable to ship to US. The glass on her Moto G4 didn't have actual scratches but the coating had scratches and irregular thickness. It looked very bad and the camera took horrible pictures, all blurry and softened from the mess (you'll see some of this in the bottom part of the glass close to the flash in the attached image).

I decided to try the toothpaste treatment that some mentioned. I was very pessimistic this would actually work. You need the right toothpaste that contains some hydrated silica (I used Crest Regular Paste). Using a Q-tip you only have to polish the top of the glass over the camera. I used linear and circular motions with the wet paste. Keep polishing until the paste gets dry, best with a thin coat on the glass. It will look pretty ugly. You may want to take the battery cover off and use some tape to protect surrounding areas. Use a dry Q-tip to continue polishing. I had to push pretty hard, with my fingers at the very bottom of the Q-tip to apply more force (glass squeaking). It took a long time and my fingers got tired (10-15minutes). You may see little improvement initially but eventually it takes the coating off completely. Wipe with a wet paper towel once in a while to watch the progress.

I should have taken pictures before and after. The camera focuses without a problem and takes pictures just like new.

attached the result after polishing. You'll see left-over coating towards the edges still there with scratches that covered the entire glass before I started. I think I can get this cleaned entirely by taking out the glass and polishing it separately. There are some instructions on how to take it out on youtube.

Here is somebody showing the process on youtube.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chVKgYuRcKE

The glass will pick up finger smudges very quickly now of course and it's probably a good idea to wipe before taking pictures.

There is a simple solution

.

.

. U won't find a camera lense glass...

Or if u succeed ..It'll be costly...

The easiest and effective way to get rid of the blurred pictures is...

.

. Get a screen guard ...(will cost 100rs. In India...Or may be cheaper)

.Cut a piece of it... Small.. like the size of the lense... (avoid the flash) And apply it on the camera ... And keep the rest to be used in future...

.I did the same and the results are significantly awesome !

It's been a month and there are no scratches. I had applied a transparent tape strip over it which can be replaced every week and will protect it from any scratches in future.

When toothpaste and alcohol didn't worked for me i tried baking soda how? I putted a pinch of baking soda on the lens took a cotton and putted a drop of water on the cotten and rubbed over the lens when based got thinner i again putted baking soda and rubbed it took me whole 10 minutes to remove that coating just rubb till you don't get the coating removed.Now how to prevent from scratches? There's a website Gadget Shieldz google it they provide camera lens cover it costs Rs.90 and Rs.150 for delivery charges and you'll get to pieces apply both of them, I'am happy with the cover now I'am a Youtuber and Shoot most of my videos on Moto G4 plus the camera is really great in the segment but Motorola didn't provided the protection quality anyways no complaints just don't go for new lens, you can check my YouTube channel search for Laughing India.

if you are a youtuber then i would appreciate a video from you guiding us through these steps, just a request :o

Im not a youtuber perhaps it is a simple procedure just take 2pinch of baking soda on a piece of small cotton add a drop of water on it and rub it hard for 5-8 minutes you'll definitely see the results.
[Moto G4 Plus Accessories] derausgewanderte:
there are plenty of youtube videos that show how it's done. Most of these are with toothpaste, but the same technique works with baking soda.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxpQuvt6m1Y

also, I suggest you remove the battery cover, remove the aluminum camera glass frame and remove the glass itself. that way you don't get the baking soda into all the crevices.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_CU5XaGe8g

removing the scratches with toothpaste worked for me. I had to apply quite a bit of pressure. What most folks show on youtube is way too gentle. Another reason to remove the glass and do it on a flat substrate.

Eventually I just bought a replacement glass here for $5

Hello everyone,

I had the same problem of blurry camera it was caused due to scratches on the oleophobic coating on the camera lens.

I would not recommend you to replace lens (if u want u can get it on Amazon for around 200-250rs in India) as replacement lens might have the same problem of scratches after some time.

Instead I had used rust removal paste to get rid of scratches. After using it my camera is Crystal clear. Before that I had tried using pepsodent toothpaste it didn't work. I even tried sharp object to scrape the coating it didn't work. So the best solution to the problem is to use rust removal paste with tissue paper or cloth to rub over the lens within one minute all scratches disappear.

Hit the thanks if my solution worked for u.
