[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] asymcon:
To me, going recent with Note 5 brings too many uncertainties into the mix.

One good feature of mido, which is often overlooked is 8 identical cores, so effective parallelization becomes possible with more than 4 single thread processes. When stressed, S625 throttles no more than 15% of original frequency. Both S660 and S630 have HP and LP set of cores, which might complicate things a bit.

Bluetooth 5.0 would be great, but frankly, which gadgets support 5.0 at this point, except for iP8?

USB-C is also a bit of challenge, as it'll require its own set of cables, new (sic!) OTG dongles and not really offering much in return.

Two camera units is a hip trend these days, but real world use is still mystery to me. Camera2 API won't be probably compatible.

Looking back to Redmi 4A, which keeps waiting for kernel sources, now for over a year makes RMN5's openness uncertain. Settling with MIUI is NOT an option.

QC 4.0 - unnecessary, as if 10W charge was slow. BTW, I'm charging at 5V 0.5A. Would you please think of the battery? :cool:

X12 LTE - even X9 is far beyond capabilities of network providers in most of EU. Here the usual transfer speeds are 30-40Mbps downlink and 20Mbps uplink.

Reduced battery capacity - for what other reason than to make the phone even more like a razor-blade, obviously.

What are your opinions? Do you favour the new kid on the street, or settle with what had good track record?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] BubuXP:
It's too early to think about Note 5 now.

There are only rumours about the hardware configuration, and it will be out in January 2018.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] asymcon:
Some photos just leaked and the screen is supposedly 18:9. That in itself is instant no-no for me and outweigh any other positive they might throw into the mix. If those are true then.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Neo3D:
I think mine is defective? Try this test:

[(x2 Camera) (x1 Camera) (HR Sensor+Flash) (Fingerprint Sensor)]

Cover the x2 optical zoom camera with a piece of paper, tape, or your finger

Press the x2 Optical Zoom button on the camera app

Press the x1 Optical Zoom button on the camera app

Toggle back and forth between the two

What happens?

As a control, try the test again but in reverse:

Now, cover the x1 camera with a piece of paper, tape, or your finger

Press the x2 optical zoom button on the camera app

Press the x1 Optical Zoom button on the camera app

Toggle back and forth between the two

What happens?

So, here's what happened with my camera.

TEST 1 - x2 Optical Zoom Camera covered: No obstruction of image in x1 optical zoom mode and x2 optical zoom mode.

TEST 2 - x1 Optical Zoom Camera covered: Yes obstruction of image in x1 optical zoom mode and x2 optical zoom mode.

CONCLUSION: My x2 optical zoom camera is defective and does not engage when the x2 optical zoom button is pressed, instead the camera defaults to x2 DIGITAL ZOOM using the x1 camera. I think my phone might be a lemon but I wanted to see if others have this problem too?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] harveydent:
The wide/main lens has better low light image quality than the telephoto lens (f1.7 aperture and 1/2.55" sensor for the main and f2.4 aperture and 1/3.6" sensor for the zoom). When taking a picture outdoors, the scene is bright enough that the telephoto lens will be used when you click on the x2 icon. If you take the picture indoors, even with artificial light, the phone sees the you get a better picture from the main lens so it uses that instead, and then crops the picture to get the zoom effect.

Look at the pictures attached. That's the same shot from the main and zoom lens. In low light, the zoom lens has worse image quality, with increased graininess from pumping up the ISO and a lot more blur from having to keep the shutter open longer to get more light in

You can try it yourself. Open the camera, aim it at a well-lighted scene (usually outdoors). Tap the x2, THEN cover the main lens and the viewfinder still shows the uncovered view.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
Yeah mine "doesn't work " either.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Notasaurus:
And for the record, this is not how the iPhone I tested worked. 7plus. In my office where light is moderate but not great, the note used the main lens and the iPhone used the telephoto. If you want to force it to use the 2x, then choose live focus. Which has no other choice.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] lennie:
if this is the case then you should also show the reverse, as in what it looks like in good lighting situations and not just low light.

because with your example you're just repeating the problem but are not actually showing a solution or showing that there's nothing wrong with his lens. ie: you're not really proving anything.

i'm actually not that invested but just saying if you're going to prove something at least just try to do a complete job. nothing wrong with that, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] pete4k:
Actually it does work similar way:

https://www.macworld.com/article/31...d-of-optical-more-often-than-youd-expect.html

They will never be exactly the same, since they have different hardware, different logic etc. but for the purpose of this topic in low light they will both use digital zoom, instead of optical zoom, albeit at different threshold point.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] wenjie1234:
the 2x lense works on the live focus.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Sunnyschlecht:
yes it works fine on the live focus. your camera isnt broken. I tried it myself yesterday.

when the x2 lens is covered just a little bit it switches to the main camera and zooms in digitally.

when you then remove your finger from the x2 lens it switches back to that one almost immediately. you can barely notice it but i played with it yesterday because this post was driving me nuts!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] harveydent:
The pictures are to demonstrate that the zoom lens takes worse pictures in low light, since most people expect that the cameras are identical except for focal length ("zoom factor"). I really didn't go good light examples since that's essentially the phone working as expected, and people have already seen millions of examples of that. So here's the 1x and 2x pictures in good light... I guess?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
Really dumb question , is there a sure fire way for me to see if my X2 zoom being used is optical or not?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Zuzullo:
Is there a way (or an app) to force the use of tele lens camera on the samsung note 8?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] demo23019:
Working fine here if you block it will default to one camera as it detect issue if you toggle 1 and 2x it will re enable the other camera also if you just open camera app without blocking any camera both work as they should.

IDK if this is with new update but It also tells you when camera one is blocked and if you block camera 2 it says not enough light.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] winol:
Again with this? If you cover the tele lens it thinks it is dark and ceases to function, plain and simple

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] ashyx:
The whole point of separate threads contained in a sub forum is that they are searchable, archiveable and relative to the issue in question. It's not really helpful to contain all questions and all solutions in one humongous mixed up thread.

One thread containing multiple questions/subjects/solutions can quickly become messy when there are several separate topics being discussed at the same time. Who's replying to what etc.?

It's akin to simply combining every single thread in this forum into one big thread. Confusing to say the least when you're searching for a solution to a particular issue.

Hi.

I have an odd behaviour of my S730/Wings. Say i make regular phonecall. No matter how long it is, 5 seconds or 5 minutes, the moment i hang up the call, the keyboard lock kicks in. A co-worker with the same phone doesn't have this issue, and i cant seem to figure out a way to switch it off. It is rather annoying :mad:

Anyone know how to solve this issue, so that the phone locks up only when left alone for some time, or with holding down the red button?

Any help is deeply appreciated :)

- Ulyd
[HTC Wings] bigflavor:
When you end a call... are you holding the end call (red) button, or just tapping it? ;)

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ofiros:
Hi,

I really need help here, i've been googling for a week now and I can't find a solution

I wanted to install a custom rom on my Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110), as its stock rom is really slow (device is not rooted)

I already did this process once with my Tab 10.1

I used Odin to install custom recovery

I followed all the instructions but it just doesn't work

When I install TWRP and I try to get to recovery my tablet stays stuck on the Samsung logo no matter how long I keep the buttons pressed

When I install CWM and I try to get to recovery my tablet goes from the logo to a black screen and stays like that.

I can only manage to install stock recovery and I manage to get it to work.

Since I didn't manage to do that with Odin I tried via adb sideload on the stock recovery

But when I do that I always get the same error

E: signature verification failed

and then the process stops and goes back to the main menu.

What am I doing wrong?

From past experience not all wacom pens are fully compatible

The wacom stylus feel for galaxy note is compatible, same size and diameter as a full length pen, very hefty (weight and size), has a mechanical feel to it, ironically i personally never did like how it felt in the hand.

The wacom smart for galaxy note is also compatible, have not tried this one so no personal experience

And finally the s-pen from the galaxy tab S3, which actually is a really nice pen, it's about 3/4 length of a standard pencil, though it's feels a little light in the hand it has a really nice textured finished on the whole barrel (feels like rubber). I personally think it's size and weight is perfect for the note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Aedra:
Been doing some research on this as well. Wacom Styluses using EMR technology will work on our Notes, but not newer technology. This is why only the first and second generation Surface pens work, but not the 3rd generations or newer. The newest Wacom Intuos styluses will also not work.
