General :: Taking Pics With Cell Phones
Jul 9, 2012
I was never really big into photography as its kind of expensive, but the camera on my own s3 is pretty awsome. I was wondering if there is a guide anywhere on taking different kinds of pics etc or what the different modes are for with situations. Like I don't know what macro is etc. Just looking forward to taking some cool pictures on my phone and maybe sharing on instagram. I wouldn't mind doing more than auto pics.

Would it be legal and ok to take images/graphics from existing free apps (such as stop/start button etc) and using it in your own app that youre developing and planning to sell? I'm not good at graphic design and there are already some great pics out there. If not how do you develop/get your own buttons for apps?

Does anyone here have any experience with Flipswap getting cash for your old cell phones? Their amounts are a good bit higher than RadioShack's trade-in program for my two old Blackberries but I'm hesitant since I haven't heard much about them.

I have an old cellphone that only is good for making calls and taking very bad pics, vids and sending slow txts. But I dont txt much if ever..I dont really care about photos or vids all I need is a phone to use for phoneing people and it would be nice to be able to check my email and get on the web alittle. I also carry a Blackberry PDA that I use alot. I would love to be able to buy an all in one PDA and phone/web serfing thing. The main things it must do is have what my PDA calls a To Do list. I can make a note there like (order 25 cases of white wine for joes restaurant) and it will record the not with the day and time I wrote it. Then laster once i have placed the order i can go back and change the not to read (ordered 25 cases white wone for joes restaurant) and it will update the time and date. Then once the order arives I can move the note to a Done box where it will let me know I have done this task and it will record when I completed it. So does anyone know of a app for Driod that does this?

So all of a sudden my Handsent is acting up, long time to open, wont send pics, but will send pics if I use stock messeges. Do I need to reset the entire phone again and start from scratch or is there an easier way to fix the problem with Handsent?

I'm writing an android application that collects cell signal strengths.I am having trouble getting the "current" cell signal strength, but I don't have any problem getting the "neighboring" cell signal strengths.To get the current cell signal strength, I created a PhoneStateListener and implemented the onSignalStrengthChanged callback.It works, but not very well.It seems like the signal strength hardly ever changes, and resolution jumps to only a few numbers.I would accept the answer that the resolution of the signal strength hardware is coarse, but when I use the TelephonyManager's getNeighboringCellInfo() method, it works much better.The signal strength readings from neighboring cells change frequently, and they have much better resolution.So, how can I get the current cell signal strength in the same way that I am getting the neighboring cell strengths?It seems odd to me that the functionality of the neighboring cells is better than the current cell.

Does this just mean I am in a bad cell zone? This is my reading at home and it is the top battery usage on the chart, followed by wifi at 24% (on because I am home), and phone idle at 23%.

If anyone knows how, please let me know.

I took some videos on SGII. They show up sideways on pc in mp4 format. It looks like I can change the orientation in Windows Movie maker, but when I try to save it as mp4 - it says "invalid format". It has it's own format to save it in and doesn't appear to have any other options.

how to change the cell phone frequencies of a phone. I'm looking into a knock off 4G phone, but the frequencies run on 850mhz. I'm looking to switch it to Verizon's 700mhz 4G LTE network. What are the kernels or ROMs needed in order to do this? The phone has the hardware to support GSM and LTE. I may even test it out on my Droid Razr, as I've heard they have both but Verizon disabled the GSM function on it.

Is there a possibility in Android to view the Cell Info (the name of the cell base, base station etc. - ex. the city name) in Android? Whatever - an option, an app or a widget?

I have a PCD Chaser with Android 2.3 on it. I'd like to disable the 3G and cell connection. Airplane mode will do both (3G can be disabled manually anyway), but also kills the Wi-Fi.
So here's my question. Is there a ROM out there, or a guide to making a custom one, for removing the cell and 3G functionality? I haven't even found anything for a bootloader or recovery for it, so I don't have high expectations.

I received text messages from my husband's phone # but he swears he didn't send them, they said: busy right now, talk to you later. Is there something in the settings that he activated without knowing what it was, because one of his co-workers got the same text right.

My current idea is to purchase a used pay phone and somehow connect it to my cell phone so that I can place and receive calls. I know of devices that can be connected to landlines but they require their own phone number and I don't want to add a line. Are there any devices that I could use Bluetooth to send my call into the landline phone?

I'm about to retire my trusty old Epic 4G and whats the best way to store my battery on it. I will be removing it but I'm not sure whether I should store it fully charged or half way charged. If I remember correctly, I read somewhere that you should store your battery with 50% charge for it to have some life if you ever need to use the phone months or a few years time. Storing it fully charged can pose a threat due to the battery blowing up?!?! Not sure if this is correct or not. What to do to preserve your unused batteries in your old phones?

I would like to have the cell network type displayed while I am connected to WiFi in the status bar signal cluster. Currently, once you connect to WiFi, the LTE, H, E, etc, go away; I'd like them to stay.
I can move the WiFi icon over to make room for the type icon (LTE, H, E, etc) just by deleting "android:layout_marginRight="-6.0dip"" at the end of the "id/wifi_combo" line in res/layout/signal_cluster_view.xml in SystemUI.apk.
Where is the function that turns off that cell type icon when WiFi is connected in SystemUI.apk? I know the system can detect the type of network whilst WiFi is connected, it's just a matter for forcing that icon to stay displayed.
I am trying this on Cyanogenmod 11.

I have a rooted HTC One and I have TWRP 2.6.3.3. Recently my phone's battery life has started to go down and I though I'll check the storage and what not, uninstall some apps im not using and some other stuff. It was then I found that my recovery was taking up in excess of 8GB ! I've backed up my phone using TWRP only a few times and each backup is taking up nearly 3GB of space.
I was wondering If I delete the previous backups and keep the current one (back it up on my PC)

When you first tell google now to take a "note to self", it prompts you if you want to use google keep or evernote. How can I change the voice app which is used? I initially choose google keep, but I want to try evernote.

When I take a few pictures, my phone tells me that my SD card is not mounted or not present. The only way to get rid of this is to restart the phone and it's detected again - until I take a few more pictures.
I already ran home, after the first time it did this, and backed up my entire SD card to my PC via USB.
The phone is a HTC Thunderbolt running Liquid GingerBread v3.2 AOSP . . .
I really don't do a lot with this phone, but the camera I use often, so this is a real deal breaker for me.

I am sure this has happened to many - with persistent notifications the status bar is all taken up and any new notifications do not show up without dropping the notification scroll.
Short of removing persistent notifications, I have tried No LED/ Super Notifier/ Super Status Bar/ Status Bar Pro - all have one or the other problems. For example the Super Status bar just did not work. So I am writing to ask??
Is there an elegant solution - such as maybe double wide status bar, or like windows - hiding the notifications you do not need to see but they're still there (so you can ensure the app did not go quit on ya).
I am running a Verizon Spectrum LG VS920 Stock GB ROM.
