[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shriekyphantom:
Good day!

Last week, I went on a vacation and tried to take photos underwater but I failed.

I was using the Spigen Waterproof Case.

The water waves most of the time messes up with the screen or if not, screen wouldn't react to my touch when it was submerged in the water. What I did is I just took a video.

Any idea or ways how can I take photos underwater?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
You need hardware buttons for the shutter. Some camera apps can use hardware buttons for shutter.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shriekyphantom:
I just have read in other forums that you can use the volume button to take pictures. I didn't know that. XD
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
That's what what I mean for example:)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] trocchietto:
I tried in a mall the samsung note 8 and was disappointed by how the pages of a paper book where not clearly taken.

I do not know if is the autofocus or the small distance. I basically use a lot this feature and find annoying while I maintain the page open with one hand to make a photo if the zoom does not work properly. Usually I block the book and click on the screen so to take a photo. Does someone has recommendations? I wrote here because on the internet cannot find nothing, and for me is an important use case
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] winol:
I take lots of photos of documents and pages of books and magazines, and they are ok
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] trocchietto:
well no actually, I bought it, best device ever, and the pics are spectacular, but still if i maintain with one hand the book, and make pics with the other hand some are great others like that

maybe I move my hand while I am doing the picture, maybe I should find a way to stay with the phone immobile
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
Dumb question, why do you take pics of books and how does this work with Samsung, ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
a bit of a low light enviroment for auto mode and text but just tap the screen once where the text is and then take a picture.

In pro mode there are tons of other adjustments. try to use the software to adjust the focus functionality and lightning to take photos on the go. once you find the right mix, use that mode from now on for those particular tasks.

try AF area multi in pro mode
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] trocchietto:
for personal use. I have thousands of books (paper) and thousands of ebooks. Once in a while I need to bring some pages with me, as you would do some photocopies in the old times
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] trocchietto:
you were right, the problem was my hand that was moving. If I remain with the arm locked, the pictures are perfect, far better than the dozens of devices i had so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] trocchietto:
to press the screen is something i cannot afford, because with one hand I maintain the book. Anyway the pictures are perfect without touching any pro setting. The problem was I did not maintain my arm immobile when I was shooting.

just did one hundred pages really clear, book with 8 and also 7 fonts size, big format, every pic two pages. Amazing
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
Ok, do you also use the optical character recognition ? Never used this myself but just curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] trocchietto:
I used optical character recognition just to play and works quite well, independently by the language

But I do not need it, just want to read something that for various reasons I do not have as digital.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
its a shame that the camera voice control option cant also do other actions:

"zoom"

"focus"

"flash"

etc
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] trocchietto:
true good intuition, would make perfectly sense considering one hand use

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rhippert:
I have an HTC Incredible 2, Verizon, Model 6350. The charging port is very loose, and I thought the battery wasn't charging. The phone reports it as in the red and will not stay powered on. I removed the battery. There are four contacts on it with the outer most pins marked + and -. I measured the voltage across them and it reads 3.771, which I believe is fully charged. I understand the phone is very old, and I am replacing it, but I need to export the contact and calendar data. Is it stored on the SIMM card, and if so, is there a way to extract it short of buying another phone and installing the card in it? Is there any way to get around this battery management software?

Thanks
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaiderWill:
U.S.A. 7X Owners..

Are you a little peeved that the BND-L24 U.S.A. variant only comes with 3/32 Ram/Storage.. while the rest of the planet gets 4/64 ?

Don't really care for the 7x in Black? in Red? or the Blue?

Maybe you prefer a nice Silver ? or perhaps a nice Gold colored 7x ?

Got an extra $50.00 or so bucks ?

Boy..... Do I have a deal for you. :cool:

Step Right Up !

And purchase your shiny new HUAWEI 7x !!!

That's Right...... *HUAWEI* 7x

You see.. in their infinite wisdom.. Huawei has now decided.. we kinda got SCREWED here in the good old U.S. of A. with our 3/32 variants..

So, they've seen fit to rectify that by throwning us the same bone they've thrown the rest of the planet.. in the form of one

*Honor Mate SE*

Which is nothing more than a rebranded 7x with 4/64 instead of 3/32...

Oh... and it comes in Silver & Gold instead of Black, Blue and Red.

Price looks to be $250.00.. instead of the $199.99 the 7x currently sells for now in the U.S.A.

Now... the Silver Lining in all of this is:

Will it LAUNCH with EMUI / OREO 8.0 ? .. the B192 update with Faical Unlock latest patches etc..

This one has me thinking.... (mainly for resale and moving up from Honor's *Sub-Brand* title/ status) it MIGHT just be worth the $50.00 to make the switch.. :cool:

If You Like.. Read more about it here: https://www.pocket-lint.com/phones/...e-is-a-rebranded-honor-7x-destined-for-the-us
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaiderWill:
Same Old Same Old..

Nah... :cool:

Same Old Same Old......... Nougat at launch.. (and god only knows when 8.0 will finally get to the U.S.of A... always last on the country's to get it list) .. so same old 7x not worth extra cash for 1Gig of Ram and 64Gb of storage.

And no guarantees (TeamKirin excepted) of any more Developer Support.

The View 10... or the Tried & True OnePlus 5T ( and OnePlus 6 in June.. ) seem to be the Sweet Spot.. Price and Interest wise at XDA (The View 10 is pretty damn strong out of the box.. and gets a lot of press)

The ONLY Budget device now that Without Question will either launch with Oreo 8.0 ( 8.1 ? ) OR get MAJOR Developer's onboard is the Motorola G6 Plus with that Snapdragon 630 engine.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] kanej2006:
Living in the middle east, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, I bought a brand new 4gb ram 64gb internal storage for just $265 including delivery.

It is unfair you get bummed for certain products but so do many others. Places like Brazil, Columbia and parts of Eastern Europe get f***ed the hardest when it comes to tax and sky high prices on almost everything especially electronics.

The US is usually the cheapest when it comes to cheaper pricing when it comes to electronics among many other items. Computer components and such are the cheapest in the US compared to any other place, so in a way consider yourself lucky.

In the UK, we get f***ed hard when it comes to taxes on pc hardware. :(
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaiderWill:
We All Have Dilemma's..

Yeah.. I Feel You On The Taxation... :cool:

When it comes to Chinese phones in the U.S.A. , we are ALWAYS last on the list when it comes to getting updates.

I don't know if politics plays a part in this or not. ;)

Whenever Huawei / Honor figures out how to make EMUI / OREO 8.0 work on other devices besides their Flagships.. and actually starts the regional rollouts..

The U.S.of A. will be the VERY LAST region to get this major update.. That's where your region has a HUGE advantage.

We all know, China will take care of their own 1st.. Then will come India, Euoupe / UK, Mars & Venus.. then they'll take a weeks vacation..... then, they'll come back and start rolling it out 1 city at a time to the good old U.S.of A.

It's been almost a month now (well.. 3 weeks for sure) since the 1st regions started receiving the B192 / Facial /AR update.

Has your region received that update yet?

Someone (I guess on here from Honor USA :confused:) posted in one of my threads that, the U.S.A. would start receiving EMUI / OREO 8.0 in April... :rolleyes:

I'll bet $$$ out of my Next Device Fund that we will get no sniffs of that update in April...

May / June is much more realistic for the U.S. of A. if how they are rolling out the B192 update is any indication of how they do business. :cool:
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bosgarage57:
I think I'll wait and see what the Mate SE holds. I've been wanting a 7x for a while now, but Amazon is still showing out of stock. I'll either give it a couple months and see how the reviews are or see what the SE brings. Maybe they'll fix the Bluetooth/wifi issue and other nit picky things.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaiderWill:
You Definitely Have Options..

Sir.. You Know You Can Purchase The Device Directly From Honor's Website... :cool:

https://www.hihonor.com/us/index.html... if you are in the U.S. of A... I think, if you are a Prime Member you will have a little longer return period buying it through Amazon.. I had another thread where someone was told they could not even return their Amazon purchased deivce.. I posted proof that I did indeed return my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 back in August with no issues whatsoever.. I am a Prime Member so, that may have had something to do with it.. but keep that in mind as oppsed to buying it directly from Honor.. which has a 15 day return period.

To be honest.. Unless you prefer Gold / White or Silver/ Black to the Honor colors.. It's The EXCACT Same Phone.

I thought maybe.. just maybe by it not being the "Sub-Brand" it would launch with 8.0 and all the other goodies already installed...

No Such Luck... It's the same phone with the Huawei branding.

3 other devices to Strongly consider...

The Honor View 10 ( My 1st choice :angel: )

The OnePlus 5T/ 6

The Motorola G6 Plus (should be unveiled at MWC in a few days)

Either of these would be a worthy investment.. the 7x is too.. but if you are into Developer Support, these devices are going to get considerbly more attention than the 7x.

If you alread have the funds for the 7x.. and don't seem to mind waiting a couple of months more... it would give you time to slip another few hundred away and have the option to get a 6GB / 128 (rumored) full boat Moto G6 or the incredible Honor View 10 or OnePlus 5T / 6

One of those 3 will be my next option for sure.

P.S.

No Bluetooth or Wi-Fi issues on my 7x whatsoever.. Actually, I have no Mechanical or Software Glitches period.

But my 7x is Completely Stock with a locked bootloader. :good:
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bosgarage57:
Thank you for all the info. Currently using a moto e4 and it's been doing fine except I want tether capability on cricket. Moto locks that down. I had the G5+ and liked it.

I'd like to purchase on Amazon for the reason you listed. In USA and am a prime member so return should be no problem.

I used to unlock/root all my phones but haven't the past couple, haven't seen a need to.

My contenders right now are the 7x (mate SE), zte pro v8, or zte axon 7 mini.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaiderWill:
Well....

If you need to save a few bucks.. and since this is on your list..

You may want to consider a trip to Bestbuy... :cool:
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bosgarage57:
I can't bring myself to get gold lol. I purchased a zte v8 pro to try. If I don't like I'll return it and get a 7x.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] TheLoonyRebel:
Since this is just a rebranded Honor 7X has anyone tried to root, bootloader unlock, and put TWRP on the Mate SE?
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] buggatti:
My question regarding Mate is who provides the software updates to the Device, Honor or Huawei.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] skritch:
This is my question as well. Just got a Huawei Mate SE and would like to root it..
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Clown:
You can also get your Huawei Mate SE via amazon here in the US. I bought my honor 7x (didn't want to spent 50 bucks more for a budget phone) through amazon and so far so good.

[General Questions and Answers] billysam:
Well, wechat has always been a problem for me since I change ROM, device many times, sometimes even with a clean flash of the same ROM, or just a reset.

I always have a nandroid backup and a titanium backup, unless I am faced with a bootloop issue and lose system partition. ( I still recover my data partition)

I successfully restore the backup of Wechat, it copies everything and works(as long as I don't turn on my wifi.)

Problem starts after I turn on the wifi.

The great Wechat security feature will ask to verify the identity, which is good until you have a phone number attached to it. but bad if you have lost it, or you are out of coverage area. cause then you can't login, cause you also can't scan the QR code from the previously logged in device and have just one friend or 2 who can't verify it for you as well, even when it's the same device, running the same ROM.

So What changed? perhaps android ID.

So I tried to change the android id from my previous logged in backup. but sadly my nandroid had no database stored in the data/data/com.android.providers.setting folder

so I looked further and got the old android id from my data\com.whatsapp\shared_prefs\com.google.android.gms.measurement.prefs.xml file

I then changed my android id with the same old id, reset app data again for wechat, restored data. but still it doesn't recognize the device with the same ROM, same MAC id, same android id.

I then found that wechat also stores google aid(advertisement id) which also gets changed after a reset or flashing again.

sadly I still haven't found a way to modify it with my previous id, although I can see it in my wechat data backup folder in the file

\shared_prefs\com.tencent.mm_preferences_google_aid.xml

yes, you can easily reset it, but I need to modify it in order to test if this can let me bypass the identify security thing.

I don't know what else to suspect other than these 2 ids after a ROM reset.

Well you can change/modify the google aid as well

here

google.android.gms/shared_prefs adid_settings.xml

it still didn't worked for me. what else am I missing to make this work? No other app has such crazy security that locks it's own owner.

I really wished they had an email verification for identity verification as well. anyways, I am out of ideas now, if anyone can contribute to this post, it would be appreciated.

Samsung updates all of their devices until they can no longer handle the load of the apps so that you must upgrade. So follow this procedure at your own risk

I have a Gear S3 Frontier (BT). I have it set to always on but sometimes I go to check a notification and the screen is off. No matter what I do with the bezel or the buttons, the display won't come back on. I can feel haptic feedback so I know the watch is still alive!

The only way to restore the screen is to hold the lower button in until it reboots.

Has anybody else had this issue?
