Motorola Droid X :: After 2.2 Leak, Camera Flash No Longer Works Properly
Aug 21, 2010
I think everyone who upgraded should test this out right away. I was taking pictures last night with my flash, and I noticed that even though the LED comes on, it turns off again the instant before the shutter closes. This problem is reproducible 100% of the time, and happens whether the picture is taken with the shutter button or the new touch button. This has basically rendered the flash useless.

Just updated to Froyo, and my camera no longer works, neither in camera or video mode. Tap the icon and the screen shows the white startup icon, then goes back to the home screen. I'm on 3 in the UK, and have an unbranded, un-locked handset, as sent to me by 3. The phone is not rooted.

I have just updated to version 2.1 and noticed my push Gmail wasnt working. I then went into the Google Mail application and can see its not showing any emails in the inbox and its not downloading any mail in "All items" either. Its only showing emails prior to the update. If I hit refresh it spins for a few moments and I see the data arrows indicate transfer but it doesnt refresh the inbox.

My power/lock button no longer works. Phone hasn't been dropped, only had it for 3 days and it's been babied. I hoped pulling the battery and rebooting might help, but it didn't. In fact, after that the only way to get it to reboot was to plug it into my computer via USB.

I use to have an Iphone and finally upgraded to my Droid. But thing that i havent figured out how to work is Yahoo messenger to SMS to my droid.
On Iphone, if a friend on yahoo messenger SMS'ed me a text from within it i got it just fine as a txt msg and can reply back, but on the droid, when u send the sms messege, my droid doesnt get anything.
I tested with AIM and Live messenger and seemed to work but yahoo doesnt.
If anyone has a yahoo account and droid can u please test to see if it works for u?
Regular phone to phone sms works fine too.

I'm having problems trying to use files after moving them.
Example:
I took a bunch of pictures at an event, the created a folder for that event and moved the pictures into it. I can still open the pictures one at a tiem by navigsting too them, but the galleary app still shows the thumbs, but cannot find them.
Example 2:
I downloaded an mp3 for a ring tone, and while in the downloads folder the music player found it and I was able to set it at a ring tone. But I tried to create a ringtones folder, and then music could not find it, and just playing it by opening the file would not allow me to set a ring tone.
So how does this work? I have seen references here to folders called Media and ring tones, but I see nothing like that in the file system on my phone. Where does one put music if they want to actually use the music player?
Is the DCIM folder the ONLY one that works with the photo gallery? Is the Downloads folder the ONLY one that works with the music player?

I know I'm on ver2. But is it the root? When I downloaded it there was also a recovery that I did not use. Did that screw me for root? Or am I just thinking wrong? Do we know if someone is working on rooting the leak versions? I know a lot of questions. My phone works really well on ver2 and I am afraid to go to ver3 and get the crap everyone else is dealing with, but root would be nice. Now that I have had the time to learn about it and how it works.

I am not sure if my Droid camera is working correctly or if it is the software. I am using the app "shopsavvy that uses the camera to scan/focus on a bar code but the auto focus works hard to focus and sometimes can't. Is anyone else experiencing this or similar issues with the camera? Do I need to take it back for a replacement?

I need some instructions on how to remove the Eris 2.1 leak that I installed? I did it by downloading some file and copying it to my memory card, then holding down the vol button and the power button. How do I flash it back to 1.5? This leak is very buggy on my phone.

I was on 2.1 stock, did the leaked ota and then the 2.2 leak. Everything is working great but I've noticed vibrate is not working for notifications. It seems to work for hepatic feedback and on calls BUT apps like gmail/messages/chompsms/others don't vibrate at all even if it's enabled. What the hell do I do? Any ideas?

I have had my droid x since aug 16th. Never have paid attention to it until today when a friend was playing with camera but I noticed that both leds on the flash doesn't come on during picture taking. Also noticed this on camcorder setting also. Its always the top led that doesn't light up. Now I am assuming this isn't normal and something is wrong. Is this a hardware or setting issue or is my flash messed up and need to be fixed. If so is it still under warranty since I have only had it since august?

Both flash was set on auto (yes even the second one) in low-medium lighting. This happened on my first Droid after a week or so of owning it so I returned it. Tried a hard reset and restarting the phone, didn't help. I also cleaned the lens and made sure my fingers were not in the way. The flash does go off each time.

Has anyone found a FlashLight App that uses the dual LED Camera Flash as a light source? I have this on my BlackBerry Storm and it works Awesome. Have not had any luck finding one like it for the DROID?

Is there a way to turn off the flash and/or the shutter sound of the camera when taking a picture?
Flash Mode says auto under it, but the box is grayed out and I cannot select it to change it.
This is the same for the auto focus feature, I am unable to select that as well.

my galaxy grand duos received firmware and software upgrade. After that, some applications no longer work properly, for example, the planner lost all the characteristics. It doesn't shows weeks. The contact application lost things like favorites.

I've tried Unified Remote and WinApp off the market, both highly rated, both practically useless for me, if for example you run a setup program the input just stops working so you have to plug a mouse in to complete which completely renders the app pointless to me. That was just an example, all of the ones I've tried have been so flakey as to be frustrating.
Are there any apps that can act as keyboard and mouse for a remote windows system that actually work 100% of the time?

I have a problem getting the Geocoder to return results on my new PC during development. I started writing a android app on my other (Win XP) system and Geocoder worked fine and returned locations based on an address that I passed to it.
I recently bought a new PC (Win 7). Moved the code over to it and now the no address queries return any results. I tried a couple that did work on the xp machine, but are returning no results on the new pc. It does not give any errors.
I did generate a keyfile on the old pc. Do i need to create another on the new pc? Does the Geocoder require the key? It is not from the maps api.

I'm sorry to bother everyone with this, especially if it was already asked. My sister, her husband and her son (my neph) own an Evo. They were OTA's to froyo way back. Now, I've gotten a call from her asking me why their swype no longer works on their phones. They had a swype.apk that was unauthorized, fyi. Note: I am not asking for a link, I'm asking if anyone knows what happened. She's asking me (everyone comes to me with their android questions).

I have a G2 rooted with the Desire Z HBOOT and clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.7 and everything was working perfectly when randomly out of nowhere my backups no longer restored properly. It would either say md5 sum mismatch or it would restore and get stuck at HTC bootscreen. This happens with any rom i flash. I've tried wiping/factory reset/formatting sdcard/flashing older cwm/ and even removing and creating new md5 images. NOTHING works. This is important to me because I ususally flash back and forth between different roms and I like being able to back them up.

I didn't see mention of this, but I received the JH7 update this morning and now I can no longer enter settings using *#*#1472365#*#*
It used to be that when I type out that character string I don't even have to press talk; it would automatically open the settings. Now the text string just disappears.

I read somewhere that 2.1 will block the tethering with PDANET. Does anyone know if that is true or not?
I just bought the paid version of PDANET a few days ago and that will suck it I can't use it anymore after 2.1.

On my HTC Hero, when typing messages, I could always easily access characters like "?" and "!" and numerals by simply "long touching" that button. Very convenient. However, recently, that featured stopped working. I can no longer "long touch" the K-key and get a question mark like I used to.
Is this a setting that has been inadvertently turned off? If so, I can't find it.

Normally if you call a Sprint phone and voicemail picks up you can press 2 which bypasses voicemail and automatically sends a text showing "PLEASE CALL (# your calling from)".
For people that use the automated greeting it usually says "You have reached the The Sprint voicecaller "recites number" please leave a message" and at that point you press 2 to to send the page showing you called.
NOW on the Evo, (or maybe its the Andriod platform) when people call you they get a greeting that says "you reached phone number" and if you hit 2 to bypass it, it says sorry "that option is not available". This sucks and by no means is this feature a deal breaker for me, (this phone is The One like Jet Li) however...
The reason I'm bringing this up it that "press 2 to page feature" I been using for years now has been extremely useful when I have no service or 1-2 bars. If you miss calls by receiving that quick text showing please call. this at least alerts you know someone called when you didnt have service.
Just looking to see if anyone knew of a workaround or another quick option, (besides the person having to type a text. I think ppl are less reluctant to leave messages nowadays..I dont either)

For some reason the history tab on the system panel app no longer works. When I click it nothing happens. I'm not sure why it stopped. Every other part of the program works fine. Any idea what the problem could be?
Also I'm typing this from the default browser and it seems to be working just fine, I'm impressed.

used to be that hitting the word "weather" on the weather widget would pull up the webpage to get more weather info. This no longer works. What did I do?? (from page 123 of the manual)
