i've seen this video on italian blog...in the attachment there is the app but i can' t try it..i ve wm6....is it true??
http://www.wmfans.net/?p=40
It's not true. It's a video and the phone holder just has the timing down. There was another video like this with the X-ray and also had a coca-cola video that tipped like a glass as if you could drink from your phone
you must be kidding that you believed it for a second. it is just recorded. to do that, YOU NEED AN X-RAY MACHINE.
are you sure it is a video? there is an installer app
I didnt even both to watch the video.
But I can tell you that if you remove the IR filter from any webcam / camera you can see through some opaque or dark items. This includes a bottle of coca-cola, and even some clothes. (SONY had to recall a lot of cam corders because the night mode allowed you to see through white shirts in the day time, ie. girls shirts.)
There are a ton of tutorial videos online how to remove these filters. The last one I watched was on Hak.5
It is a definte FAKE. The guys' bone structure and adipose tissues does not match the Xray screen viewer. Definitely FAKE.
Maybe you don't include that camera isn't located in the center of screen. But I haven't tested it, I don't know is it real.

Capellone85, where the heck sei andato a pescarla, questa?
IT Fake
Its Fake Some People Actualy Fall IT its a swf flash file haha.
the timing on the movement is out and the bone structure as mentioned was way off
It is probably a video file being played.. i have seen another one pretty well done with a little girl.. almost had be thinking it could be real but then my common sense kicked in
I have one a bit like that on my PDA. Not quite as sophisticated but still impresses people for about half a second till they figure it out.
Got it from here: http://freewareppc.com/misc/xray.shtml
edit: just noticed that post #7 has the actual one from the video
here is a whole bunch of such apps

thx so much for answer
I have used this one a long before, its just a video that runs, & u have to adjust the movement like wise.

The drink ones work on some devices like the HTC diamond, iphone, n95 and many others due to the the built in Accelerometer.
The xray as stated above is a flash vid but looks good if you time it right.
had my daughter believing my touch was an uber fone for weeks with that xray
Look at the guys left hand. It looks like he has this mapped to the button his thumb is on. Right before it moves, it looks like there's more stress as if he's pushing the button
Hi Guys
I was testing out the camera on my Fuze last night in complete darkness in my room. So i put the flash on, and started snapping some pictures. What I started to notice was that there was this halo on the right side of the screen. I quickly figured out that this was from the LED light hitting the back casing and bouncing back into the camera lens! I removed the back of the Fuze, and snapped another picture. The differences are AMAZING! THe following pictures have the exact same settings and everything, one was just taken with the back on and with without the back on.
Check it out!
With Back On = http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/votum3/IMAG0022.jpg
Without Back On = http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/votum3/IMAG0020.jpg
I guess my pictures dont have this halo as stated here http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/votum3/IMAG0022.jpg
or at least not that strong
NExt problem is how to solve that without removing back casing? Maybe impossible ;(
Nice find! THanks
Thanks. The only thing that I was considering was some type of jacket that goes around the flash that plugs the space between the back casing and the flash. But I'm not exatly sure how I could do that...
You can modify your case by putting a dark piece of material in the case to separate the light form the camera lens.
Yea I was thinking maybe some of that black foam type stuff with the adhesive on the back thats often used on electronics would work great.
maybe it is a ORB..

ROFL
Yea after I took the picture my camera was actually taken by a spirit and thrown across the room. I tried to get it back but to no avail...
whats needed is to make the hole that little bit bigger
In my opinon HTC should leave the camera out from these business models, lower the price and make them smaller in size or something...
id rather they make them actually usable like some nokia or sony models myself. i love not having to carry around a separate camera as long as the phone camera is up to snuff.
A small square of felt between them ought to do the trick.....
dont have that problem
leaving out the camera is like limiting the device of what it can REALLY do. true, many business's state no camera phones on site, simple solution find another job.. j/k have two devices one w/wo camera..

Yesterday I had send a document to a coworker, and I used my Pro to take a picture.
Last month I had to e-mail a bank receipt while on the go, guess what I did?
So yes, the camera is important for business use, and I would never buy a phone without it.

exactly - so much easier than writing stuff down
I'm a service tech....and use the camera to snap pictures of goofy stuff I see
on machines, and sometimes mail them to the tech support center. I've always
been told a picture is like 1000 words...
last week I caught my spouse cheating on me finally and took pictures with my diamond pro... so yes, it is good for business, especially when you can give it to your attoryney for grounds of divorce..

ps. just kidding - having fun with this topic! hehhe

This has been discovered on the Kaiser forum a while ago already. But now that you mention it, i check the back cover and surprisingly, I haven't noticed until now that there is no protecting glasses in the holes.
Very useful update to have: put the camera function at the lock screen.
So you would have a camera that can take photos in 2 steps, making the htc magic alot more useful.
Hopefully someone can come up with an enhancement like this.
that would be pretty cool as long as it wasnt easy to accidentally open.
Yea, i know what you mean.
It is not that hard on that part, can simply have to touch 2 different places/buttons to start using it on lock screen.
Hard part is coding.
Camera function on lock screen to make it more useful? I think what your looking for is a camera sir lol.
It wont happen without multi touch in the lockscreen because it wouldnt know weather you are unlocking or clicking camera. But is it really that hard to hit menu 1 more time to get to the home screen?
Dont you think it is more useful?
Anyway, you dont need multi touch. 1 touch is enough to take shot.
Remap the "search" hard button to the camera. That'd make me happy.
Who puts a camera in a phone with no flash? Took me acouple days after buying to realise there was none...
Anyone else think thats a bit budget?

I have honestly never owned a camera phone that had a flash. Thats what camera are for lol
I love this phone!
Stock ROM, rooted.
Battery lasted yesterday from 630am till 9pm. Gmail, Plume, 4 phone calls, etc.
Reboots/freezes...I had two a couple days ago, switched SD cards and no more issues.
Connectivity...no wifi issues, no issue with 4g...haven't tried bluetooth yet.
Screen bleed...I think I have a little, barely noticeable.
Anybody else have some love for this amazing device?

I got it on 4/20 and I have been enjoying it so far. This is my first smartphone too. I seem to have a bit of screen bleed but only noticable when in complete darkness and near max brightness. Besides this the phone has been great. Very customizable.
love over here! stock, only added apps because honestly im pleased w/ the speed/performance so far. no screen bleed ( or maybe i do but its just isnt noticable) reboots or course but the phone boots in like 30 secs so its not that serious. decent battery life even w/ running a live wallpaper. just waiting for a stable cm7 to see what all the hype is about ( my 1st android phone ) or gingerbread and go from there!
I have nothing but love for this phone!
I like everything except no LED for notifications when the screen is off and all the software bugs.

I'm actually really happy with this phone ..its blazing fast and a good looking phone too. Had reboot issues at first but removed bloatware and been cool ever since ... oh yeah and rooted it in minutes... such a user friendly phone ... battery life is ok but what do you expect from a powerhouse phone...

I love this phone also... No issues for me... Haters will hate I love this beast.
Hahahah, its great to see this thread. Seems like so many people don't like this phone, it was getting a little depressing. I'm loving mine. Blindingly fast, easy to root, bootloader is open, and after a battery calibration my battery life is fantastic. I have a bit of lcd bleed, but honestly its not much (you have to really look for it to see it). Glad there are others enjoying this phone like I am.
Sign me up for the thread of love, I just bought this phone...will comment shortly but i am happy i own the fastest phone currently found in the world. Not to mention CNET's editors choice award & high praise from PCMag among others.

i see alot of hater threads and i have posted in a few
my only issue is the back light bleeding...... if and when i find a device with minimal amount of bleeding this phone will be perfect!
i dont understand how people can complain about battery life when they have all there synch settings set to 5 mins and screen timeout set @ 30 mins and then sit on it all day...
i play music for at least 2 hours a day in my car (4000 watt DA subs FTW!)
i talk on it for about 30 mins a day (mom and random calls)
i txt ALL DAY (gf and brother at least 200 each a day)
i TETHER! for about 2 hours a day and after all that still have about 30%
its not your old razor that got 4 days of battery with heavy use it has to power a BEAUTIFUL (without bleeding) screen...... let alone all the bull spit drivers that LG threw in there
just wait for a BIONIX RoM and a MorFic UV/OC kernel then decide!!!
i give this phone 9.5/10 all day!!!!!
Finally a positive thread lol. My galaxy s has been gathering dust since the day I got this phone. I love everything about it. Honest its sort of a bummer going into g2x forums because of all the problem threads lol (not that I blame them). ONLY problem I have is the screen bleeding and I dont even notice it. Only time that ever comes to mind is when I browse xda and see all the threads.

well dont be mad but i get my third G2x in the mail today... and im gonna make a video of the bleeding on all three (i still have the other two) and make one more BLEEDING HATER THREAD i know its gotta stop some time but this will be the LAST chance/response that I personally will address the issue at hand
then im going to send it to LG as they want pictures..... but i think a video describing it will be a little better for the paper pushers @ LG that think is not a issue and you should just turn the brightness down or on auto (that was the answer they gave to the problem)
Love this phone. My only complaint is the amount of times I have to peel off my speck case and pull the battery because it locks up.

Even though I'm not bothered by the bleeding I am going to wait for however long it takes them to put out a new batch of phones without the issue them im going to warranty for a new one. Doing it now doesnt make a difference because the entire first batch of phones has the problem.
I got to say this phone is a beast! I love it as well. Although I admit the bleeding problem but I think once new batches are out then t-mobile would not give us any problem to replace them.
Coming from a Vibrant and I don’t know how to even compare the two.
* GPS works better than my Garmin Nuvi, It locks while the maps are loading. The compass works like charm. I remember my Vibrant was a joke, it would take minutes to lock and the compass never worked at all. And I replaced the vibrant 4 times!
* The look and feeling of G2x is amazing, you feel like you are holding a nice expensive phone in your hand. I cant even compare to the plastic vibrant.
* The screen is a lot better and crisp on G2x, If I turn both phones and compare them side by side, you can notice the cloudy and high contrast screen of vibrant right away(so called "super amoled"). Only con for G2x is the bleeding on the corners.
* Wifi works better on G2x as well, I never have wifi reception on the vibrant while in the bedroom. But now G2x has full reception.
* Volume and power button on G2x is awesome. Very nicely laid out and have great feeling. I hated the vibrant buttons!
* I don’t know why but I heard some people talking about bad sound quality and low speaker volume. I compared G2x to both Iphone4 and SGS vibrant, and G2x is better than those two.
* Great camera, flash, FFC, and back cover..
* Above all, this phone is going to have a great support! not only 2 weeks that the phone has been released and we already have a beta CM7! in couple weeks, we will probably have a great functioning stable CM7 on our phones and I am also hoping first CM8 when Google releases the ice cream!
* Only concern that I have is the current baseband modem is a little buggy, but I know we will see new modems in mater of time.
I do love the phone, but unlike many of you that just got it and love it, I've had it since it was first released, and my love for it has waned as bugs have started to reveal themselves. So don't speak too soon if you just got the phone or you may be eating your words.
First came the random reboots, but then they went away.
Then I noticed the stuck on "goodbye" screen during shut down that required a battery pull.
Then yesterday I had a un-provoked factory reset happen on me.
Again it's a great piece of hardware, but even those of you claim to love the phone have to admit that LG quality control is lacking and there certainly are bugs to squashed. Just b/c you had great success with your phone doesn't mean the phone is great overall, it just means you've been lucky or haven't had the phone long enough.
I think many users are happy with it.
Mine only had one lockup from the day I purchase about 2 weeks ago.
Screen backlight leak/bleeding is minimal so it's not that bad.
HDMI is pretty cool when playing games on big screen.
Battery is OK but I only get up to 3.5 hours (from full to 15%) of continuous streaming mp3)
Cam and Video recorder does the job and the video isn't that large.
Calling quality is very good but I want the speakerphone is louder, same as video/audio playback.
Can use the light as flashlight with tiny flashlight app.
It should be the snappiest phone I have so far (2500+ quadrant).
Instant screen cap (touch home and press power button).
Three issues:
It can't read ogg vorbis tag, so ALL files are treated as "unknown" with winamp or default music player.
Wifi setting gets FC after it's connected.
Streamfurious doesn't work (gets broken pipe then stopped) and it's reported some streaming audio applications don't work (tunein radio works fine).
this phone sux lol. f*** love. jk
I read a lot on here and have not seen this mentioned. A few times lately, when using the camera outside, I've noticed that in portrait and with a normal view/screen if I tilt the phone over to landscape, the screen just fades to dark, as in practically black. Tilt the phone back up to portrait and the view fades right back to normal :silly::silly::silly: And if that don't weird me out enough, I can walk indoors and do it and it works just fine, both portrait and landscape!! I've tried stock and a 3rd party cam. app.........no difference. Currently on latest Cataclysm/stock kernel/4.4.1. Anybody experience this or heard of it??? Thanks in advance.......
running latest cataclysm (Dec 6) and I do not have that problem (just tried it using stock camera app).
Does it stay black in landscape or does it just adjust for the lighting?
I never held it in landscape and dark for more than 15 or 20 seconds, but it did not act like it was doing any light adjusting. Another baffling aspect of this is that it doesn't always do it. I've taken a dozen or more landscape shots just fine since I've had the phone (about 2 1/2 wks.). Oh well........
edit: Just tried it again, both indoors and out, and it's working fine now..............gremlin? possession? anybody know a good priest? lol. I'll pay close attention and see if I can come up with some more information.
Quick question just to check: Are you wearing polarized sunglasses outside? That may affect the screen since it is also polarized.

Wow, really? That was a total shot in the dark, I assumed based on your last message about it working it was like a software issue that was fixed. Awesome! Glad I could help, . Or maybe no if you want to see in landscape .
Old thread but just saved me on the beach! Had the freaky screen blackout with polarized sunglasses!
LOL! I was in this exact position a while back. Figured it out myself after an hour of idiocy. Felt real stupid when it finally dawned on me. It was one of those "doh!" moments lol.
Sorry to bringing this back but this thread saved me. Thanks a lot man.
Holy crap. I feel like a moron lol. Thank you @Termic for knowing what was going on. My brain was starting to hurt.

Interesting! But why it doesn't affect in portrait mode?
Hello, I don't get it. Where is the solution?
I mean, I was reading through all the comments and I only saw the cause of the problem, and apparently everybody is happy with it?!?
Well, I had a look further, and I have found an actual solution.
I just bought myself a cheap plastic transparent screencover, no more issues with the polarized glasses that made turn my smartphone black in landscape mode... and no... it wasn't a Nexus, so it might be considered as a general thing.

Ahhahaha lol... I had the same problem, a friend showing me something on his phone and not seeing anything, it took some minutes to realize my fishing glasses were the problem
repeating question of 'yclam'
Interesting! But why it doesn't affect in portrait mode?
I'm sure glad I found this discussion and Termic's solution most people would have never dreamed of. This has saved me tons of energy posting on the Microsoft Community user forum desperately looking for a solution. Termic's solution should be more widely posted to help other Lumia owners out of their misery in trying to solve this.
Why not in portrait mode is a good question. It seems the light spectrum coming from the Lumia's display in horizontal mode shifts enough to trigger the polarizing filtering of sunglasses. Just a guess.
This is very weird. I thought it was my phone.... I noticed it while using maps, tried to turn it sideways and put it in my dash clip and 5 seconds later, black screen. Turn back to portrait and it's fine.! Only had this happen today with the new phone I got last night, an LG Stylo 4, never happened with my previous phone a ZTE Blade Zmax. Maybe it's a display setting?
