I definitely agree. Idk why they would switch the camera.

yea the gb camera really sucks and I also noticed its darker. The focusing isnt as good and I feel that the quality of the pics is decreased. I used to love taking pictures with the factory lg camera. Is there a way to get the lg camera back, even if it means going back to 2.2? im guessing root and flash one of the 2.2 roms?

OTOH, I think the new camera does better with flash photos. With the original stock camera, things close to the camera were all overexposed and blown out. A couple of test photos in a dark room with the flash really came out looking very nice, much better than the old camera.

Does the GB camera take Panoramic pics and art pics?

I'm confused about the discussion of the cameras with gb mean we lost our specs with our original camera functions with froyo? If so what did we lose

Nope! One of the perks with the LG camera that's sorely missed.
Common Sense is learned..........
LG G2X
HTC Sensation

Yea and it takes forever to take a phota even longer then LG camera app, man I could go take a **** and come back for the pic and still have to wait and that's with the timer off! And yes the fps is lower the LG camera in 2.2. And it also had more options why the hell would they do that, so so stupid for real, I bet it was to much of a pain for them to incorporate into gb

They just aren't willing to do the work. This "update" was likely started a month ago, its also likely there won't be another. Just a feeling, LG seems clueless.

[REPORT] 1.45.401.2 HTC official base issues | Please report your problems here

Hey guys, I though we can do some list of known issues in latest 1.45.401.2 HTC official base. It would be good idea if later as many people as possible can report the complete bugs list to HTC so that they hurry up with the update and we'll make sure they are aware of all the issues so that they wont be present (hopefully) in next build.
Confirmed issues:
Broken 3D engine,
Bottom dock edge is not smooth (for all 3 skins),
Language issue: (Polish) In HTC e-mail app after selecting unread message the button "Oznacz jako przeczytane" (Mark as read) have text cut in a half,
LMW.apk is missing by default so we can't use "Make more space" in SD card settings,
The phone doesn't always register first power button click to put the phone on standby. It has to be hit twice for the phone to drop to standby,
Zooming in a picture in gallery and pressing the back button doesn't zoom out to the original level,
Phone is embarrassingly slow and choppy as for Dual-Core 1.2GHz device. Especially scrolling through widgets is very laggy,
Phone is getting warm even when scrolling through the desktops,
Not confirmed issues:
Other things to report:
Still missing correct kernel source for 2.3.4 ROM,
Write you suggestions and propositions of better description to the issues. Also report your language issues like missing translations etc.

Nice post Mike, the RUU has been on shipped ROMs for the past week but my broadband has been down
Had the HTC reps in work a few days ago and got one of the guys to esc the 3D issue to their tech/dev team with a detailed description, hoping for a fix soon

This is very good news Lee, hopefully they wont brake anything else lol. Do you have some suggestions for the list?

Not sure if it's an issue but scrolling in whatsapp conversation is unbelievably choppy and laggy.
Hell even if the GPU wasn't working, the dual core should be able to handle it. But no.
Really weird (My HTC G2 is 10x smoother).

After sending a message,you turn off the screen at once,and then it powered off.
It has happened for many times,but i am not sure if it is an official issue.

Mate Ninja Fruit on my Desire HD ROM runs perfectly smooth but on Sensation ROM (the same tweaks as for Desire HD ROM) is lags like hells. Yeah... "amazing dual core 1,2 GHz to provide even better multimedia experience"

Just uninstalled it, played on my nexus s and no problems, tryed on my vibrant and no problem, am talking about the cordy game, it totally makes tbe sensation crash worst than an underclocked kernel

Is there no way for these to be manually updated?
Or would it need a whole new release by HTC?

When you zoom in a picture in gallery and press the back button it doesn.t zoom out to the original level. In music player side scrolling in albums tab does not work.

Yes, you can flash libs from 1.35 base but only with custom kernel. But it's not a fix, just a temporary solution. It must be fixed by HTC.

Can you explain better? Can't reproduce it...

double press power button
I confirm the issue with having to double press the power button to wake up the phone sometimes. Did not face this problem with earlier builds

Finally had it with the G2x -- Got a Sensation

T mobile is a good company to work with. I've traded 4 phones in 4 weeks, and by far, the Sensation is a great device.
The only thing I've noticed is that when using MX video hardware decoding for divx movies is choppy. Software decoding is on PAR.
The other little gotcha is that it has rebooted 11 times since I've started using it. Coming from the lock screen as well as, just in general sitting there ( 2 days). T mobile is sending me another one. (Never does it on Wifi calling is on, which I have noticed...)

Usually reboots either if it's over clocked in anyway or Sense using too much memory. But glad you are getting good service from the folks at tmo. I have to call into service to get such service/answers lol. Have fun!

Congrats! Sensation is turning out to be the best device for me so far.

Welcome to the club! Same story here.
That G2x was the biggest POS ever made.
HTC is soooo much better.

Your sensation should NEVER have to reboot unless you have over clocked it. I saw what LG was about to do like nokia did with the n900 and i quickly jump ship. Wasn't going to be burned again.

My GF has a g2x and there is little wrong with it. GPS sucks from time to time and the camera is lacking...Thats it.
It has MUCH less issues than my sensation has, thats for sure. Its got great battery life (mine sucks), SMOOTH GLASS (mine feels tacky), and a buttery smooth browser. (Mine is jittery and rough).
Best of all, it was free for her (adding a line).

Cool that tmo is sending you another one. Just curious, are you running stock rom and kernel? Both mine and my wife's sensations used to reboot several times a day on the stock tmous 2.3.3 rom and kernel. The problem went away after I started messing with our phones a bit more.
My MX seems to play fine. Mkvs, avis, you name it, it plays.

Hey Bigmixx, I noticed you from tmonews. You always have good points to make. I too was having issues with my Vibrant, and T-Mobile hooked me up with a refurbished Sensation. I'm sure the problems you were having were with that device only because my Sensation is working well. Now I know what it's like to have a decent Android device!

Im too come from LG..O2X, similar to g2x..haha..really glad i did it..

Just be patient, he has to support every LG phone that CM supports, he is the maintainer of CM on all LG devices.
Some day, our day will come that we have a fully working ICS ROM.

RC is a mastermind i dont know how he does it he is amazing , but im soo disappointed in these ROM's and im not blaming the devs, but hardware acceleration on the ROMS is nothing compared to stock, the stock rom seems smoother and way faster, and lack of drivers from LG is really annoying, do you know if LG would release a full source code with Nvidia drivers this april as its the expected of official ICS release

dumb question. What does video encoding do cause I can watch all videos and take pictures and record videos

However.
Can you record 1080p? 24fps?
I couldn't.

Should I buy the Transformer?

Hi guys!
I'm planning to buy the TF101, but I'm not sure about a couple of things.
Can it actually play 1080p videos? Or 1080p YouTube videos? Is the YouTube app streams over 1080p?
Or we must open the browser if we want to watch it in high resolution?
How many hours it usually lasts with watching videos?
Is it fine with the stock ICS, or I have to switch ROMs in order to get a decent tablet?
I would greatly appreciate an input from those who have the TF101.

If u buying new, rather get something else, ics is a hit n miss on the tf101 at the moment, and asus don't seem close to fixing it honestly
I've got one, no serious issues with mine, I enjoy it
Not sure about the video playback

Hi!
Thanks for your answer. Could you please explain what do you mean by "hit and miss"? I thought all TF101 got ICS OTA.

to tell you the truth i traded my ps vita for tf101 and never looked back this thing is awsome even on stock it was good with 4.0.3 had no probs then after root cwm custom rom and kernel this thing flys and is buddery smoth would recomend it to anyone as ive had no probs with mine.

It will play hd youtube(720p i think) however the playback is not great, actual image quality is pretty good but as soon as there is any sort of fast moving action it starts to skip a second here, a second there Really annoying as it is a priority for me also. The last firmware update was supposed to have fixed this issue but seems to have made little difference. Have finally got round to rooting and am now searching for a rom that has sorted the issue. Its not a bad tab apart from this though and if you can get it at the right price there really isnt much wrong with it

That's what I was afraid of. That I'll not get it without putting a new rom on it.
Well, that means I have to look for something else
Usb host is basically USB on-the go. I know the keyboard has it, but I wasn't sure about the tablet itself.

The nexus 7 looks awsome and has killer specs and a price tag u can't beat. But I'm just new to the TF and I love it not one regret.
