[Q] Camera click sound, do you guys have it too? - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Hello guys,
I've been using my brand new XZU coming from a Note 2 and LOVE it really, and im not missing the camera LED.
Anyway, to get on topic:
Whenever i start my camera app, and close it again i hear this clicking sound coming from the camera.
Do you guys have this too?
Its regarding the 4833 model (if im correct) it supports 4G connections.
Thanks for your time reading this!

Yes, i got it too, but i also heard it on my Note. I believe it's the camera focusing (physical auto-focus), and most newer phones do have this "clicking" sound or "noise".

Thanks for the quick reply

- Video Calls for more Android devices (Sony Ericsson X10, Dell Streak).

I've tested it. I can confirm no front camera. Just uses the main camera, which is kinda useless.

No Guys, I'm sorry...
There is no front cam installed.
Seach for my "Upskirt Shots" Thread.
If you find a frontcam, please post the lottery numbers for coming Saturday

i m also confusing with this. arent we all knew that x10 have no front camera since they first day published?
I saw a video by CoolSmartPhone.com on youtube with a white x19 with a front facing camera. S o n y Ericsson Xperia X10 - The on-screen keyboard and dialing
A lot of salespeople saw the proximity sensor and assumed it was a cam... I think that's where this rumor started
there is no front camera....
i have tried using video chat apps which use front camera..they said no front camera detected.
maybe the latest fring version lets u use main camera.
i dont miss it though..
my bro has iphone4 ..he keeps facetiming with his GF...
Facetime is lame. What's the point if you can't make 3g video calls? If you're at home might as well use your laptop/desktop that has a better screen + better quality
so, this is?

Front Camera
There are X10 knock-offs floating around on Madeinchina.com (from the site just do a search on X10 and you'll see exactly what i'm talking about)
Many of these knock-off's have dual sim card slots, front and rear facing camera's, radio, even built in television.
However I can't confirm if any of them are using the Android OS. Its possible that where ever this confirmation came from originally - that the person was using one of these knock-offs.
Also to note - the camera resolution on these knock-offs are considerably lower than the true X10. Usually about 4mps for the rear camera, and 1.5mps for the front facing.
Screen size is usually a bit smaller. And I would imagine the resolution of the screen wouldn't be HD.
I have though made my decision. The next cellphone I buy will probably be an android based knock-off. Why? If I'm not going to get support from the manufacture anyways what the heck is the point in paying the high price. When I say support I mean continued updates and upgrades. All the work is now being done by the public - not the manufacture. I'd rather save the money by not buying the name brand, and donating to the developers who make this stuff work.

Out of curiosity, on the X10 what does the Proximity sensor do?
I have the message LED's that light up, that I noticed. The blue LED for facebook messages. is this a different LED to indicate something else?

What app are you using at the moment to take the pics? Are you using the stock Motoblur camera app? If so, there are NUMEROUS threads about how it sucks and people have found nice replacements in the market. Use the search function.
as for hardware replacement, as easy as it "sounds", its not. You would have to hope you can find a camera that is based around the same hardware as ours so the factory driver would work. Otherwise you will have to hack/mod/code for the new cam to work. All in all, not worth the cost of admission. It'd be easier to wait for a new phone to come out with a 12MP cam which seems to be the upcoming US Standard for 2012.
Thanks yeah i think im using motoblurs camera whatever the alien rom has which i think is the droid 3 one....
Thanks again

U39GT sound issues

Hello,
today I received my first android device, shipped from China manufacturer, the Cube U39GT tablet. It came with Android 4.2.2 , has an Cortex-A9 processor and Mali400 graphics card, 1920x1080 9" display and is generally really nice device. Altought I came across one big issue I dont know how to solve myself and it is the sound.
I didnt expect the sound quality to be any good since it is just a handheld device but the quality is really awful and pretty much unlistenable. It makes weird noise while playing through the main speakers and when earphones pluggen in and listening to a song, the singer sound like he is singing underwater or I dont know. Best description of the problem I can do with my english. I hope it is a software issue since both the speaker and earphones are having issues.
Is there anything I can do? Should I install a new ROM? If so please point me to some guide or something. Im getting hopeless.
Thank you all!

Thank you
Hello there! sorry to answer so late, I sorta forgot about I posted here. Today I got pointed to a new ROM which should fix the sound issues so I will try that no. About the quality of the product I can say it looks and feels awesome Let me know if you are still interested in the scores and I will get them for you.

Hey, mind if I ask where did you buy the slate from? Is it directly from their official stores at Tmall? I have been searching for their truly "official" online store but it seems there are too many self proclaim "official" stores. Any guides on where to buy? I would prefer to buy direct then to go thru an authorized dealer.

[Q] Galaxy S4 bad front facing camera frame rate in low light

Hello guys, I have a Galaxy S4 and whenever i use the front facing camera in third party apps it sucks really bad in low lighting conditions. My old iPhone 4S wasn't even this bad.... Any help is appreciated. Even in Snapchat it has really bad frame rates using the front facing camera in "low light" conditions. Please help.

Hi dhaddad12,
You probably have too many apps running in the background or have too many apps on your device. I suggest deleting some of those and see if that helps. Remember, every single piece of memory is vital for your device to run to its full potential.
Also, are you rooted or not and if so, have you flashed any ROMS on it yet?

I have about 7 gigs of data left on the internal storage. I do not have a micro SD card installed on it. And i havent rooted it or flashed any ROMS to it. I've rooted my HTC EVO before, but i never flashed. You havent experienced this issue when skyping in low light? It looks really cruddy...

Any annoying software bugs? (Particularly UK users)

Hi guys and girls,
I'm looking at getting a new phone soon and my choices I've narrowed it down to, for different reasons, are these:
Google Pixel 2 XL - good battery life, great camera, pure android
OnePlus 5T - good battery life, good development scene
Huawei Mate 10 Pro - can get a good deal on it, great battery, great camera
Cons of the Mate 10 Pro all revolve around EMUI. Bugs/features I've heard about so far are these:
Non-push notifications not working
No notification drawer on lock screen
Quick reply actions etc not always working
These all seem really annoying and are things I wouldn't have a problem with on the Pixel 2. I could root, and install AOSP, but that would just have different bugs, and I'd lose the AI which is obviously a big feature of this phone, plus the camera quality would be lost.
So I'm looking for any users who have either had these issues fixed, or know workarounds, or have any other little bugs that I should know about.
Thanks

Thanks. Not a big widget user, but annoying to know things like that are broken. Do you think that once the phone is released in the states, support will be better? Pretty big market

Its difficult to say, it seems like a simple fix for Huawei, so don't know why it's taken so long to sort out.

And that's the sort of thing I'm concerned about. They are a massive manufacturer and therefore you'd think that issues like this should be sorted at release. I understand that Oreo is still new and all manufacturers will have issues, but this would be my first Huawei phone and I'd like it to be in good shape! And a good experience.
Audio switches from bluetooth to loudspeaker after some time.
Call quality is very bad due to the AI chip.
Since these issues are there since release, I wouldn't recommend that you buy the Mate 10 Pro.
12 pages of bluetooth issues on German forums: https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/...0-pro-android-8-bluetooth-problem.853624.html
The two issues stopping me from buying this now are what I've heard that third party apps don't show notifications on the lockscreen always on display and the LED works spordically.
Pretty important that I know I have notification considering this is a communications device I would say.
Also there are reports about poor wifi and cell signal.
