[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Joe Smithereens:
I think it has something to do with the laser auto focus or phase detection. I get it in some photographs in lower light conditions. Not cute.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] cyhamada:
I just noticed this same thing on my v30. Anyone else see this? I'm wondering if my phone is in need of a warranty replacement.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] 20degrees:
It's not. Mine does the same thing. As mentioned earlier, it more than likely has something to do with the focusing (those 2 sensors under the flash). Maybe sometime with lighting. Hopefully it can be corrected in a software update.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] One Twelve:
Everybody will experience it if the shutter speed does not match the frequency of the light in that room.

You can test this yourself

If your current is 60Hz, go into the manual camera and select 1/60, no flickering right?, move it higher or lower you see flickering. Next try 1/120 multiple of 60, maybe you see it or not

For people in countries where current is 50Hz, go to 50Hz or 100Hz. Any shutter speed that in between those figures will produce flickering

If it bothers you set the shutter speed in manual at 1/60 pr 1/50 and let ISO adjust accordingly. Auto might not get it right and you will see flickering as you pan around and shutter speed changes

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe_6pak:
I think I'm screwed here. My tablet locked up and I force-powered it down. When it restarted, it went into a soft bootloop and won't load the OS. I'm able to get to my custom recovery and attempted to restore a backup I made in TWRP, but every time I try to restore it displays the screen shown in attached Pic 1, gets to 20% and reboots the tablet. I tried installing a custom ROM and got pretty much the same error (see Pic 2). I can't even wipe the device for some odd reason. All it does is reboot the system. I can get to the screen shown in Pic 3, but I'm not quite sure what my options are. Do I need to factory reset, or do I have a paperweight. I'll sideload if I have to, but I'm not sure of the best way to do this. I'm throwing myself on everyone's mercy here! AAAAAAAGH!
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
When all else fails, flashing the factory image with fastboot usually will solve the problems.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe_6pak:
I tried flashing the factory image and it appears to have crapped out. See attached image. I think I got a real problem here :mad: .
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe_6pak:
Think this is a better screencap.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Interesting that bootloader and recovery flash but then nothing else. Try downloading the factory image again. I have seen downloads being corrupted before.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe_6pak:
Think I should stick with Nougat or download the original factory image (5.0, LRX21Q) that it shipped with? I've also heard rumors that it may be a faulty USP port or cable. Thoughts?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
It should not matter which version of the factory image. It possibly could be a bad cable. Also, use the usb ports in the back of the computer, not the front, if you're using a pc. I haven't seen this being a problem with nexus devices but it has been on some samsung devices and odin.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe_6pak:
Okay. I used the back USB port and a different cable and I tried flashing the latest Nougat image. Went through without a hitch and it started up but hung on the splash screen and kept rebooting. Flashed the original image and the tablet started up but I got the dreaded "Enter your password" screen. Had NO idea what my password was, so I entered the first PIN that I thought I may have used. Well, that wasn't it, so it took me to a Factory Reset screen because it said I had corrupt data. After a lengthy "erasing" screen, the tablet fired up and I'm back where I started on Day 1. I have no idea if I am still rooted or if my custom recovery survived, but I'm kinda glad the thing at least got started again. My bootloader is still unlocked, and I made sure the "Enable OEM Unlock" box was checked in developer options. Since I just use this for games, email, video watching and an occasional Facebook glance, I'm really not concerned if I'm rooted or not. Obviously I'd like to be, but I'd rather make sure the tabled is updated by a download from Google first. I think my use of Flashfire is what screwed me up in the first place.

Long story short, I'm back up and running, but its 2014 all over again. Will I be able to take the factory update from Google with an unlocked bootloader, and will it be to the latest version of Android? Do you think my custom recovery survived, and is it worth the bother to root and flash it for a (mostly) gaming device? The only thing I can think of that I would want root for is Stickmount (to transfer files) and to get Google Assistant (which I'm pretty sure that I could back-door through Nova Launcher). Oh, yeah, and the adblocking. Let me know what you think. I TRULY appreciate the help, and I'm glad this resource is out there for noobs like me to make it through the Google menagerie.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe_6pak:
By the way, does anyone think that going from system to systemless root is what may have caused this?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
I'm glad you're up and running. System or systemless should not have made a difference. I'm sure you no longer have a custom recovery or are rooted. I'm guessing you will get an OTA update from Google
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe_6pak:
It took the update just fine. No Google Assistant, but I'll keep trying. Thanks a bunch. REALLY couldn't have done it without your help!

[Android Head-Units] oopshtyler:
Hi Guys, quick question, I've searched around the forums and can't find anything about my unit the reseller is Sinosmart it's a SoFia based unit 2GB Ram 32GB Rom non 3G for a Chev/Holden Cruze it's running Android 6.01, the MCU 2017-06-09 RUL_(NOR)_90_C9_685x_5009_CAN(All)_Newlap_Amp, I understand that it may be a non branded joying type unit. The only issue I'm having with it is I can't control screen brightness at all the sliders do nothing and the night/illumination function does nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
[Android Head-Units] oopshtyler:
Just an update I found this at the 4pda forum RUL = Sinosmart so they make their own variant of the MCU software, is this correct? In regards to rooting the unit, is it safe to use the non joying boot image on these forums, has anyone else had experience with this brand? Thanks in advance
[Android Head-Units] luciusfox:
Joying units are manufactured by an outfit called "Carsql" aka "SYU", which is now owned by the manufacturer of the SoM, "FYT". They (SYU/SQL/FYT) have a lot of customers that they manufacture radios for, INCLUDING Joying, and likely yours as well. Usually, the MCU is tagged with the customer ID.

This is much the same as MTC, which also has a lot of customers that they make radios for, which *used to* include Joying, who I guess got a better deal and/or better product from SYU.

I can tell you that from a hardware engineering point of view, the SQL/FYT units are a lot better than the MTC units.

Software wise, however, its a wash. They all suck.
[Android Head-Units] oopshtyler:
So what your saying is in my case Sinosmart is a customer of SQL/FYT if this is the case and a lot of the units are made by the one company for these re seller groups, how come the mcu's aren't cross compatible I understand rom's can be if they are based on the same SOC in my case the intel Sofia, why is there a separation between joying and all the other intel based units, does joying use an mcu unique to their units? also wouldn't the joying/other brand sofia based unit rom's be compatible with each other, or is it not that simple due to slight variations in gps chips, radio chips, ect....hopefully that makes sense! Thanks for your reply
[Android Head-Units] luciusfox:
Almost all compatibility problems are *intentional*. They just put a string into the MCU version field that the OS uses to decide if it wants to play nice or dirty.

More than likely, those units are FULLY compatible.
[Android Head-Units] oopshtyler:
No ones reverse engineered the mcu flash files? I read a while back someone had done or had partial success with the older units on then 4pda site

A closed source platform with full end to end control? Nope.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jhs39:
I'm not thrilled with my OP5. The build quality is the kind of crap that should probably be expected from a Chinese phone company, OOS is less stable than an average custom ROM on any phone I have previously owned and for some reason I can't run an AOSP ROM on this phone and get a decent phone signal. But I still wouldn't want an Apple phone. I think they are extremely anti-consumer and that the primary purpose of any Apple product is to lock you in the Apple ecosystem so they can squeeze as much money as possible out of you. Amazon does more or less the same thing with its branded electronics but they charge a fraction of the price of Apple. If you are going to spend a small fortune on an electronics device then you should have way more freedom over how you use it than you get from Apple.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
I was on iPhone from the 3GS-->7 Plus

The majority of the time I had it jailbroken with tons of tweaks and mods. As soon as iOS 9/10 rolled around, it got tougher to jailbreak and using an iPhone without it felt very difficult for me.

I personally would never switch back to iPhone at this point, there is just so much more possible with Android!

However, both my parents have iPhones and I wouldn't recommend anything else to them just because it's a simple, and easy to use OS for the non-tech-savvy (such as my parents).
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ibila:
Seriously? What's wrong with the built quality? It feels pretty sturdy to me. OOS is running really stellar on my OP5 and I feel no reason to flash a custom ROM at all.

Customer care might be flaky and the lack of Beta program for the phone baffles me but other than that I don't see what's to complain about.

OnePlus releasing the 5T soon is Annoying though...

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Nbsdog:
I have an RS988 running 7.0 and unlocked the bootloader last night. I have been trying to flash TWRP onto it but for the life of me cannot get it to take. I found one thread about rooting and installing TWRP on the RS988, but could not get it to open recovery. Using "fastboot boot recovery.img" would give me "FAILED (remote: unknown command)". After that I tried removing the battery after flashing to avoid android and it just booted straight to it. The only way I could get into recovery was through ADB and it was the red death Android (Image below and stolen off google). Other than that the volume down and power combo just boots me into android.

Does anybody know a way I can get TWRP installed on this phone?

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] phoenX80:
Hey guys

since my wife broke her Note1 I was kind if happy to trade my N4 against a S8plus. But I am so disappointed with the camera which is one of the reason for me to spend so much money.

The raw is kind of ok.

But in+0 EV pictures are way too dark I think.

The jpg resolution seems awful with artifacts - I dont recall this from the Note 4.

What especially drives me crazy is that the app reduces the shutter speed in a way it is not possible to take sharp pics of stationary objects let alone moving ones. Its like only 20-30perc seem keepers.

Does anybody know how to force the app to not go beyond like 1/30h? If I use pro mode and set the shutter speed ISO looses automatic thus this mode is a joke. I cant set the ISO as well when shooting kids. The app also forgets the pro mode after closing it - so annoying.

I know I need to show examples but I just bought an office and dont have time atm. But maybe someone shares my dissappointment and maybe some guy/gal has a work around?

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] augie0041:
I have been using Miracast for years with my previous Android phones while traveling in hotels, etc. I love that it doesn't require a wifi connection and I can still screencast whatever is on my phone to my TV. I've been reading that Google is blocking miracast on the Pixel phones so you have to use Chromecast but it doesn't have the same functionality of being able to connect using wifi-direct. Does anyone know of a way to connect my Pixel to miracast?
