Keyboard App with changeable position - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys!
My friend's touchscreen won't work on its left side (approximately 1 cm). He can't use certain letters like W, A, S ....
Do you know any keyboard apps which can be moved slightly to the right or something similiar to that?
His phone IS NOT rooted. Sony's Keyboard App has this functionality but it can't be installed on samsung devices.
thank you in advance for your help

Try to update the touchscreens firmware via telefonecode *#2663#.
Good luck

TouchPal or swiftkey (and some others) can both offset keyboard to either side.

Works great here. Did you download the Tablet version?
I'm using the Tablet Version. Had this Problem also on Acer a500 and Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 in some Apps
Gesendet von meinem GT-N8010 mit Tapatalk 2
It's working perfectly fine on my SGN and on my son's Nexus 7. I've used it with all my tablets (Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, Toshiba Excite, etc) in the past with zero problems. It might be due to some other app conflicting with it, since you had the same problem with other tablets.
working fine for me as well.

1. Uninstall and reinstall
2. Make sure it's the tablet version.
Seems to be a problem with some versions of the App.
I've found many other threads in the official forums.
It also occurs in Polaris office.

Camera Flashlight way too bright?!

Hey there guys...
I have a simple question.
Well... This morning I've tried to take a photo of some text. I enabled the flashlight in the camera app an shot the photo... But all I get is a hell white picture. So I tried around with the flashlight and noticed that it makes all the pics way too bright... They are aweful.
Does any of you guys suffer the same problem?
Is there any fix?
I am running 4.4.2 on latest DroidKang v18 and ChaosKernel 9.2.
Thanks in advance

now are you using the flash to take photos or are you using a "flashlight" option?
I'm sorry for the wrong place.
Well... Of course I use the regular flash option in the camera. Sorry for my English

you can move back a little from the object that you are photographing. or, what i would probably do, you can turn down the exposure to -1(press the circle on the bottom right, pres the +/-, press -1).
Yeah... I understand what you mean. But it's not a problem of distance or something. I am a hobby photographer and know about that. Even photographing my room from about 6ft gives me crappy results. Here are examples. The brighter one is with exposure 0 and the darker ( but still awkward ) one is with -2

As you can see it looks like I'm using a 200 lumens flashlight

i photograph a lot with my n5, like a lot might be an understatement. but it looks like it might be an issue with your rom or gapps. the flash works fine for me.
Is there a way to remove and reinstall the original camera.apk?

I find the flash quite harsh. In low light conditions, I try to use hdr instead of flash

Okay... So just flash gapps over? Your flash looks way better. Mine is really blueish. The wall on my pics is white as snow actually
Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
Maybe you have an issue with focus. There is a pre-flash that is quite blue that goes off during focus before the actual flash. Maybe you're somehow catching that. I managed to capture it myself once just now but unable to reproduce since
Normal flash

delete the camera apk from /system/app/(then reboot). then go to your custom recovery and flash this flashable camera zip http://goo.gl/orWkC0
Oh yes baby. That worked!!! No idea what's the difference. But its way better now. Thanks a lot ) This is the 4.4.2 original camera app isn't it?

it was the camera apk, plus the lib and jar file needed to get everything working. i bet you were just missing some needed files. but im glad it worked

The problem is ROM and kernel related. Roms which use for the torch the sysf interface run into this problem if the kernel does not have a fix. Symptom is simple....enable one time torch....after that every picture is overexposed. Only a reboot solves it and after that best not using torch.
Basically it is an error in the kernel source. Fix for it is this one
https://github.com/SlimRoms/kernel_lge_hammerhead/commit/fc65aaf560efbaafcdc0a03793af75fc9d97ef12
Just notify your kernel dev about.

Google Marshmallow dialer for Non android one and developer edition phones?

The Samsung dialer on the s7 isn't bad, but I was wondering if it would be possible to edit the apk for the google "phone" app on the play store. For what ever reason, google has limited the apps capability to android one and developer edition devices running 6.0+.
Would it be possible for one of you guys to download and extract the apk so I can see if it works with the s7.
And if it doesn't work, would it be possible to edit it to work?
This is for the google made app called phone on the play store

Perhaps the SD820 is bad. Or T-mobile doesn't allow it..

Any ideas please?
