I've noticed that my Google Maps app seems to be running at a very low resolution, so everything looks blurry. I've tried manually setting the resolution to WQHD, but that doesn't seem to fix it. I'm on the lastest version of Google Maps, with Mate 10 software version B131C636. Anyone else have this problem?

Same thing happens for me.
I'm having a lot of issues with this phone (can't disable vibration forever, the lock when locking an app in the multitasking menu disappears when closing the app, undeletable notifications, screen gets so scratched, vibration turns on again after when you enter again in silent mode ...)
What resolution are you using when running maps? Settings > Display > in here you have several items to choose from but I believe "Screen resolution" is the one you need to try to manually adjust to see if it helps at all. If not then maybe a factory reset is in order...sorry!
I'm still having this issue
Hi!
I have this issue too in my Mate 10, I have the resolution setting @ intelligent mode.
I tried deleting the Maps data and doing a factory reset, same issue.
Still no solution?
No such issue here. I am using Mate 10.

Why ? Because you are 3 to have this issues, every mate 10 owner must have it ? Maybe it's firmware related, region (of devices) related, screen (maybe differente quality of hardware used).
Before claiming its all mate 10 issues, try to find out if you're more than 3.

There's only one way to test this.
It's to take a picture from a word, very close that we can see the pixels and compare it
I also have a blurry Google Maps on my Mate 10. Google Maps Go is even worse. Although, the maps inside the Google Trips app is just fabulous! So crispy and detailed! So Google definitely can do better even on a Mate 10. I reported it to Google, but got no answer yet.

My Streak used to take very good photos which came out natively at 2592x1944 pixels, around 300kb in size. But suddenly that has changed and now photos are only 640 x 480 pxls and about 80kb. I've made no changes nor can I find any means of returning to the higher quality. Can anyone shed any light, please?
When using the camera there are settings for this. I am on my IPAD so i cannot provide instructions. Maybe later when I am on the phone.
Hi,
There is a strip of very small settings buttons down the left hand side of the viewfinder area, touch the top one and a scrollable box comes up, somewhere in there are the resolotion settings. Make sure you check the superfine option, then pick 5MP option.
The buttons are really fiddly, it takes me a couple of tries to get the settings menu up.
Hope this fixes your problem.
The pics I take with my streak are usually around 800MB

Not on mine I'm afraid! There are five buttons on the right side (brightness/contrast, store location, white balance, flash mode and zoom), but none whatsoever on the left side???
I remeber that being the case before the Froyo update. Are you on 2.2?

Yes, I am. And I had high quality photos both before and after updating to 2.2. It's only recently that this has happened and I can't think what I must have done to have caused it, nor can I find any resolve. The last thing I want to do is a cold reset, so if anyone can suggest how I might be able to reinstall just the camera app, perhaps?

HI AidanBell,
the option to set the quality of the camera is just below the brightness and contrast option.
Once you click on it just scroll it and you will find it.
Thank you so much. At first I still couldn't find it, but eventually I realised that the brightness/contrast menu is scrollable - which is not in any way obvious nor have I ever known before! So of course scrolling down I've now finally found all the quality controls. So simple and yet so beautifully hidden! Thanks again to everyone who helped with this. Job done.
Expect another update soon

Just flashed the new update via NCS. On EE UK.
Can't see anything new. Probably stuff 'behind the scenes'.

My update came though at 18.00hrs GMT but was WIFI only, I am also on EE
When you go to the store you will find that there are also updates for many of the Nokia Apps.
I have only had this phone for a week and thus am not too sure about the changes offered by the updates. In settings however I don't remember "network +" being the option name for call waiting. I don't remember there being a sunlight and battery setting under "display+touch".
Nokia music seems to now have access to my music library (perhaps it always did though)
On reopening Here maps it says "whats new" and tells me that it has true offline maps, Venue Maps and Turn by Turn. Not sure if any of these are actually new but Here wanted to tell me about them via a one time only "nag screen"
After the system reboot I did notice that the ambient light sensor went mental. The shadow cast by my hand whilst typing in landscape made the screen go from it's usual bright to very dim. TBF I don't know if standing under a UV lamp (outside the pub) was responsible or not. Prior to this I had never noticed the light sensor doing anything at all. I also noticed that I had lost connection to EE until I rebooted again.
As for reliability, I had not experienced any problems prior to the update
If you update the Nokia setting apps you get the option to see details on your "other" data... and clean temp files...

To verify that its not a rom issue I wiped and reflashed Black Jelly Beta...I also wiped and flashed Alpha and Padawan JB 2. I get the same results with all three.
I'm not sure if its a app issue or a problem with my phone. If anyone has any advice, I'd really apreciate it.
Thanx in advance

Someone over in the Q&A section had the same complaint. It sounds like the app isn't ready for prime time yet. Did any version of the app work for you?

No I have not been able to record video since they added the feature. I sent an email to instagram support but haven't heard anything. Surprise...surprise...

+1 to the list, getting same issue. If I run instagram on a non touchwiz rom and try to use the camera, the phone freezes. Finally able to get it up and running on a TouchWiz rom with camera working, but video issue is the same for me (won't let post, seems to record but then starts over asking to record up to a certain point)
I've had exact issue and it still hasn't been addressed almost a week later....
same here
Sucks that this issue still hasn't been fixed by instagram. Read reviews from play store and every single Note 1 user cannot use video feature. I bet if all these people would only rate only 1 star it would be addressed and fixed.

All three options are checked, but hotword detection only works when I press the power button, not when the screen is off.

Is your device rooted?
When I update and rooted my Nexus 9 for the first time, somehow, it kept the old kernel, not the "Q" one. And had some issues like lag, adaptive brightness and inability to use "listening mode".
I installed and rooted again and everything was solved, including the listening mode.

Are you using English as primary language?
An app conflicting with Google voice?
Check everything again. Maybe you are missing something.
I'm running out of ideas. Sorry.

I tried a factory reset and it seems to be working now although it's a little inconsistent. It stops detecting when the tablet is not used for some time but a reboot fixes that.
Glad it worked.

My first Nexus 9 didnt work, but my second one which immediately updated to the newest version did work.
Inconsisten behavior here too. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. After a reboot everything seems to work just fine, but then it starts to fail here and there. Not smooth, anyway.
Inconsistent behavior with screen off. I'm on the latest R release (fresh factory image install).
mine did today, in a carry bag, while is was using the n7 while driving. this is why I want a customizable hot word I can set per device. how hard can that be.

Any new suggestions on this?
I am on 5.0.1 and "OK Google" works from locked some time after a reboot, but then it stops working and is only working when on a home screen and screen on.
Does this work properly and consistantly all the time for anyone?
Hi all,
Need some help on the compass app. I a not able to calibrate the Compass. Calibration will start but after some minutes it seems to drop the data and start to circle and shows in all directions but not to the north. I am on the actual C.16 version in Germany. Any ideas ? I already cleared all data and cache from the compass app.
Regards
Flummi
Can you make a video recording of the screen how it behaves?
here the video
Try the calibration outside, I didn't use the compass application, I had it disabled, if it looks like it works

How does the sensor behave, does it show one position or does it rotate like a compass?

Has the compass also stabilized?
I got the same problem, when using gmaps, walking it works perfect at start but suddently it shows wrong direction and if i reset the navigation and start it right away it works again but later on gets crazy again... Must be software related...
PS: im on latest eu rom
On my gt2 pro calibration does nothing. So the compass app does not even start. Also gdpr version of the phone.
The manual test is not a calibration, it is a test of the Magnetic Sensor. If the value is stable in the manual test and the needle flies in the compass application, then the problem is with the compass application.
