Thanks Mike, you were right the first time, it is the front camera. The confusion has come about because Ateksoft refer to it as the front sensor in their webcamera software, and as that and coolcamera are the only software other than video-calling which can use the front camera, that is where both ss1271 and myself discovered the problem.

I have opened my phone up once a while back, but am not in a hurry to do it again until I have a serious need to use the front camera.

I actually used your guides when I opened up my phone before, and will again if I try to solve this before I upgrade, (too poor to at the moment), so thanks for providing them.

Heres a pic of me taken with my front cam.

Well you can't tell that I haven't had a shave today, so there are some benefits:). I could make it my profile pic, but I rather like hoagy, what do you reckon?

To get back on topic, do you think that it is a loose connector, is this something you have come across before?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Well hoagy looks fine!

The push in connector is the most obvious first thing to check in my view. The trouble is loose connectors can show a host of different scrambled pictures and weird colours and missing lines. Can't recall one that vivid shade before but I've seen bright green:eek:

I guess the standard thing is just ensure it's not software by doing a hard reset (but I guess you have done that already)

Hi Mike,jez

First i apologize for my mistaken the Hermes with the Touch Diamond.

When I first got Mike's mail, I took it grant to think that Mike was talking about the Diamond issue...

I'm sorry for you two guys to get confused.

Now I'll clearify that in this thread I was discussing about the FRONT CAMERA of Hermes.

and unfortunately I eventually cannot fix the front camera problem.

[Android Head-Units] mad212:
I have a Joying JY-UL135N2. Newest updated installed. I have a 2015 Camry and I have the steering wheel controls mapped and working. Problem is that when I press the next button on the steering wheel it opens other music apps. For instance if I am using Pandora and click next on the steering wheel Spotify, Tidal or BlackPlayer will open and start playing. This happens within any music app I have installed when I click next. This even happens after a restart and when I have only opened a single music app. This is basically making steering wheel controls only good for volume up or down. Anyone else experience this issue or know how to fix it?
[Android Head-Units] PsychoMcSatan:
Sounds like it's mapped to the media button. What does the "Previous" button do? Under "Car Settings" you can remap steering wheel controls so give that a try.

[MENTION=1282169]mad212[/MENTION] hey I will be installing a joying universal intel 2gb soon in my 2014 camry and I have a few questions.

-Did you have a orange canbus box attached to your harness? How did you wire it to have steering wheel control work?

-Do you have door open/close feedback?

-Do you have Fuel info and Tire pressure info on the joying head unit?

Thank you!
[Android Head-Units] mad212:
I did not receive an orange canbus box with my head unit. I bought from Amazon so I didn't have the option to request it. I assume I would need this canbus box to get the door open/close function and tire pressure stuff to display. I actually don't really care if I can see that info or not. As far as steering wheel controls I use a Metra ASWC-1 for that.
[Android Head-Units] mad212:
I have fixed this issue by installing [MENTION=3076686]gustden[/MENTION] steering wheel key customization script. The next button now works as it should.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciaranco:
Hi,

I bought a dead Z3c with the intention of using it to replace the screen of my cracked Z3c. Using the 'hold every button down for 15sec whilst charging' technique I happily managed to get the phone charging and turned on, but there are two issues:

1. The battery drains quite fast, like 100 > 0 in 8 hours without use. Battery stats tell me it has 200h+ left and that 'Android OS' is the biggest drain, with 2h of keep awake when its more like 5min.

2. I tried my SIM card in it but it keeps saying 'network unavailable'. The network name shows up in manual cell networks settings ok, both 2g and 3g, but it will not register correctly and the indicator has the little 'R' for roaming. Data works fine, just not voice/SMS, does this mean its locked?

Its running Android 6.0.1 build 23.5.A.1.291.

So a few questions:

1. Can I unlock it by rooting it? Does this stop security concise apps like banking,android pay, NFC, etc from working? Maybe a custom ROM will resolve the battery drain?

2. How can I find out if it is locked if I don't know the locked network and don't have any other SIMs to test?

And if the worst comes to the worst, would it be easier to:

1. Swap the complete LCD & digitisor over to my old Z3

2. Or, swap the entire circuitry and battery from my old phone into the new one (plus the SD slot in my old phone is also broken, so I'd prefer this)

Hi to All,

and thanks how can to going out from this situation wiht my phone.

During a firware update (maybe a wrong one) the phone restart and go into the loop of huawei logo.

The only think that i can done is to put the phone in fastboot, from first think i say: " good, i can try to recover my phone!" but i can't, let me explin why:

- My Bootloader is not unlocked and i can't flash the right firware to try to perform a factory reset.

- For this reason I start to think that i could unlock my bootloader, but i can't because I don't have the unlock "password"

- I try to get the unlock password from the huawei website, but i can't becuase i don't have the Product ID

I don't kwon what i can do anymore, do you have any idea? Is there any other way to get the Product ID or the unlock " password"?

Please help me i'm really need to have my phone back for works reason.

Thanks again to all.

Can you enter eRecovery?

Try dload method if you can

If you can't enter eRecovery,put your phone into charger and press power +volume up if it doesn't work try DC unlocker.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexz:
I'm sorry. I have misunderstood it. What's your firmware before it happened?

You have to dload your original firmware. Just extract update.app from update.zip then copy it into dload folder in your sdcard

1. What is the firmware before your phone has a problem.

2. Without any success means? What's the error message you got?

i was on B330 and try to turn back a previous version and goes successfull without any error but at the restart was looped on the huawei logo.

with DC unlocker the programm says that i'm still on B330.

I would like to try flash boot and try to recovery my phone but i'm stucked from this " password unlock" that without a product ID i can't have it.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexz:
back to Previous version is?

Did you try to factory reset?
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marco88lecce:
I can't do a factory reset because if i press for long time power button & volume + , nothing happen, i can't go to the wipe/factoryreset part.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexz:
You may try to flash "you previous firmware" via fastboot.

Extract boot.img , recovery.img & system.img update.app

Type:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

Then you may try to factory reset

Shutdown your phone. Press and hold volume up + power (do not plug any usb cable). Release it when you see Huawei logo.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marco88lecce:
just try but failed i think because i have the bootloder locked

C:\adb>fastboot flash boot boot.img

OKAY [ 0.560s]

writing 'boot'...

FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.574s
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexz:
Then no choice you have to get bootloader code. Maybe you can email to huawei customer support to get bootloader code or the fastest way to unlock is using DC unlocker. Search for other thread about DC unlocker if you have issue.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] gabe50200:
I see alot of discussion here about the Axon 7 problems with lack of access to the AKM DAC, and the flawed stock Music Player. I know this has been talked through, but unfortunately, most of what I read is contradictory or inconclusive.

I have done extensive if somewhat subjective testing with a set of Sony MDR-D77 phones (look 'em up) and have come to the conclusion that NO music apps other than the stock player use the AKM chip. None, zip, nada. The only two I have found so far that tell what chip they are using are Neutron & Poweramp, and both list the Qualcomm DAC (Neutron lists ARMv8 + NEON, and Poweramp lists Snapdragon 24bit). I have tried Neutron, Poweramp, Google Play, VLC, Black Player, PlayerPro, Onkyo HF Player, Foobar 2000, Media Monkey, Noozy, USB Audio Player Pro, Stellio & Hiby Music. All fall short. It's not like any of them are bad, they are just not as good. There are subtle but significant differences. With the default player, the soundstage is a little wider and seems to have more depth, the high end is a little clearer and there is no distortion even when turned up. With EVERY other player there is a a slight compression to the sound, a bit of a roll off at the high end, and noticeable distortion during loud passages. Nothing extreme by any means, and might not even have noticed if I wasn't listening back to back, but it's there none the less. Neutron & Poweramp both have enough options to make it a little better and squeeze every bit out of the Snapdragon DAC, but they still fall short, and I don't want to have to pay for second best. There has been some discussion about the Headset HiFi setting switching between DAC's, but I don't think that is what it does. I can still hear differences regardless of the settings. I have a feeling it's another software trick, like the Dolby stuff.

So just use the default player, right? Yeah...well here's the thing, as has been discussed, it won't play album tracks in order, it alphabetizes everything. For me, that's a deal breaker. I just can't listen to Dark Side of the Moon, or Abbey Road, or O.K. Computer, or any number of other albums, in alphabetical order. It just ain't right.

So.. here are my questions:

1. Has anyone found a player that actually uses the AKM chip? Are you sure? Is it even possible without some hardware level access?

2. Would it be possible to add the ability to play tracks in order to the default player? I'm not much of a coder, so I plead incompetence on this, but if it is possible I might be willing to make it a personal project.

3. Would it be possible to make it so other players can access the AKM chip? More difficult than the previous question I'm sure, but probably still possible.

I'm sure that any of the above solutions could also work for you Axon Pro owners out there, and Blade V8 owners as well, and any other ZTE phones with the AKM chip. Unfortunately, ZTE has shown little interest in dealing with this. I just makes me sad to have such a wonderful bit of hardware, and only a flawed player to access it with. There must be a better way.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ephexxis:
neutron can absolutely use the ak, and I'm sure other players can as well. it just needs to be switched on after plugging in headphones. obviously as a secondary DAC the output sink in use matters, and it certainly does have issues detecting what sink is in use and whether it should switch on or not, but this is actually a problem with android and not the hardware itself.

just my 2 cents

there's really no comparison in terms of audio quality either imo, neutron especially after the other days update is ridiculously powerful

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] joaste:
Could you tell me how to check the dac is being used on neutron? And when you say switch it on, where do you mean?

To be honest though, I really hear no difference between the stock player and neutron or rocket player. The 3 sound identical. Am using 1more Triple Driver IEMs.

here ill make a little Walk through of my process
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] joaste:
Much appreciated!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ephexxis:
basically the only things that are critical to ensure is that neutron is processing using AudioTrack rather than OpenFail(GL) ES, and that you go toggle back and forth the dac in sound options any time you say, reboot without removing the plug from your headphone jack. screens are sequential. and just meant to show my setup and process when i get in my car, mount my a7 to the dash and jack in.

you'll hear the difference immediately from switching on the ak4461. its pretty ridiculous

*ADDENDUM * guess i should probably say that this is with stock, albeit modded firmware. everything seems to indicate the audio treasure contained in this handsets' chassis is more or less inaccessible when running custom roms, or at least LOS based ones
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] joaste:
Thanks for the screenshots.

I am seeing AudioTrack rather than OpenES now but am not seeing NEON+NEON like you. I'm still seeing ARMv8 + NEON.

I am using the evaluation version of Neutron. Would be surprised if that was the cause.

I'm on full stock B10 (A2017G -> maybe that has something to do with it?).
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ephexxis:
lol is cause my ss was bad, we have the same hardware :highfive:
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] joaste:
OK, but I don't have anything next to VEC. Not sure what that is by the way, nor why I have nothing next to it like you...

As already mentioned though, I really hear no difference between the players. I do hear a difference when I switch to Super mode in sound settings.

---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 PM ----------

Only saw your post now.

Indeed, if true, that confirms what I was hearing in any case.

Thanks for that!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ephexxis:
super mode = the toggle for the ak4461.

as for neutrons quality, keep in mind you're always limited to the quality of your music files as well as your listening hardware. everything sounds much better in my car where i also utilize a creative Soundblaster e3
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] gabe50200:
Thanks for the replies.

I don't know, maybe I'm imagining it, but i swear, I could switch back and forth between say black player and vlc, and they were identical. But...switching between the stock player and any other, and they were not. And that's with super on all the time, and I did go in and check to see if it had been reset. I don't know. I think I'll give my ears a rest and maybe try again. This time I'll try switching super off and on each time I switch players and see if that makes a difference. Do you think unplugging the headphones when going from one player to another would make a difference? I wasn't doing that.

I will agree that of all the third party players I tried, that neutron sounded the best. But it still didn't seem to be as clear and open as the stock player. I will check that I don't have ES turned on. And you have a couple of options selected I didn't, I will check those as well.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ephexxis:
i mean it's true that all of the configuration files are written with the stock player in mind and so it will have the easiest pain free time facilitating playback on that phone with its hardware and its structure
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] gabe50200:
I suppose it's possible that ZTE may have tweaked the output a bit on the stock player, and that's what I'm hearing, not the DAC.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ephexxis:
actually dolby wrote all of the audio configuration files for this phone

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ephexxis:
that was just a bad screenshot in my part. unless you go out of your way to get one of the other neutron apks, like the one with armv7 with neon, those values shouldn't ever change because we all use the same armv8 hardware.

but here are my settings right now, and outside of the audio hardware menu i have 64bit processing enabled.
