New album app rolled out (5.2.A.1.2.0) - Sony Xperia L

Sony has released a new build of its Album app which appears to bring performance improvements. New version 5.2.A.1.20 replaces the older 5.2.A.0.6 build, which brought a number of new features including more PlayMemories Online functions and All Sync (automatic and unlimited photo syncing). The update is live for the Xperia Z series including the Xperia Z1, Z, Z Ultra, ZL and ZR. I'm not sure when it'll be available for other phones

Play Store app pixels blurred

The play store app images and text have blurred in my tipo. The pixel size of the images and icons seems wrong. I tried to install play store from other sources but it still does not work. Is it in my tipo or every tipo out there has the same problem?
Plz help.

So is there no solution, I guess..

Just a small tip from me(not trying to take you down!!!): QuickPic is 3 times faster than this one. Can simply be installed from the Play Store. Pictures load faster, and browsing your pics is a breeze.
Again: not trying to take you down! Just giving you my opinion!

The Reason Album is slow on our devices is simple... It was made for phones with stronger processors. The Album app on my SP and V open real quick in contrast to my Xperia J that is why it is "slow"

Yeah, that's what I said in the Xboost thread, which resulted in a moderator deleting everything... But, Mystogan, please: could you stop rubbing it in our face that you have a high-end phone?
Thank you. Now, let's get back on-topic!

Using Themer Xperia E

I can't run themer on my Xperia E because the resolution of 320x480 is not supported by it. IS there any way to get it running on phones with smaller resolution?
Nope. Even if it were, the Themer website explicitly says that the Xperia E, J and Tipo are incompatible: http://support.themerapp.com/knowledgebase/articles/263019-what-devices-are-supported
Even if it's not as good, try ssLauncher. It's on the Play Store, and my only problem with it is that it is too customizable. :laugh:
Thanks for suggestion.

Official Sony Background Defocus app

Looks interesting, not compatible with my device from the google play store. Even though it's an Xperia L and 4.2.2 ?

Here is another thread about it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728482
It doesn't install on our stock firmware, because we didn't get it with Sony's Smart Social Camera. Maybe this will work when you flash that to your phone first.

Bizzare Sony quoted this for the Xperia L
The camera experts’ camera phone
If camera engineers made a smartphone, what smartphone would they make? The answer is Xperia L, the Android mobile designed with Sony’s leading camera expertise.

Yet we don't get this app or an update to 4.3. Just the social camera would be fine.

Sony should update the info for Xperia M
"If camera engineers made a smartphone, what smartphone would they make? The answer is not the Xperia M, the Android mobile designed without Sony’s leading camera expertise."
Sony say, Let's update it to 4.3 and give it a social camera!
Whereas the actual Xperia with a camera designed by Sony’s leading camera expertise gets 4.2 and no social camera. Honestly the focus and lag is rubbish. My iPhone 4 is better and that's years older.
Thanks Sony!
The focus is much better in Xperia L but Sony camera software is really bad. GO TO Facebook page of xperia l, a person merged libraries of xperia m in L and he have got amazing results

Have you used an iPhone 4? Basically it focuses and when you press the shutter, the photo is taken, no blur.
The Xperia L, focuses, looks great, you press the shutter and the phone refocuses, so really great if you take photos of something that is stationary (building, landscape) but useless for anything which moves slightly.
I have a 17 month old boy and it's nearly impossible to take photos blur free, with the iPhone, nearly every photo is perfect. I will post one from each so you can compare. I got the xperia L to replace the iPhone 4. Unless Sony do something with the software, it's going on eBay.

The focus of the XL is a problem. Touch to focus works, but press the shutter and it refocuses. It takes me several tries to get the actual focus I want. This is more apparent when trying to shoot on macro or close moving objects.
I really don't know what's wrong with Sony's software team.
Honestly it's useless as it is.
The annoying this is, Exmor-R, Exmor-RS sensors are in iPhone, Samsung phones and they take amazing photos but the actually Sony phones suck. Definitely a software issue as using the google camera app the camera focuses and take a photo (rather than refocusing).
Well said my brother

It won't install on our XL. Its an addon for sony smart camera and will be available for those mobiles which got the smart camera app. Thank you sony for leaving us and fooling us. I think this might be my last sony smartphone. You are worst at customer support. Even XM has got 4.3 and smart camera app but we with 8mp camera are left alone and no sign of update.
Really annoying sony.

Z2 to one plus one

Hi guys is it worth it to switch from z2 Sony to one plus? I need a good battery and good camera is all I care about and development which z2 has barely nothing. Any one have switched from z2 to one plus? Please share
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Free mobile app
I would say no,if you want camera.Also Z2 has more custom roms based on stock.In opo the custom roms will develop when the device spreads among masses.Screen quality wise Z2 is superior. I do not own Z2 but Ive tested demo set
Sent from my One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I have just changed from Z2. I prefer the OnePlus.
Its as good as the Z2 and slightly better due to CM and bigger screen.
Camera is only redeeming feature of the Z2 but I got bored of it overheating.
The best camera is the one on you (that works!)
