Is there anyway to have the camcorder settings saved? If I adust the contrast or saturation or even white balance and then back out of the camcorder app the settings aren't saved and everything is zeroed and auto again. Maybe there is something I'm missing, so figured I'd ask.
Odd, pretty sure mine save...

Most settings you can double tap the new setting to save the change or tap the small funny icon on the bottom right to save the changes. But on the settings with the side bar you must tap the funny icon on the bottom right. Looks like a little sim or memory card or something.

Hello guys,
I have contacted HTC asking them some questions, including the over contrasted pictures and whitebalance issues in the camera, oh and the pink tone as well. Here is their reply :
"Regarding the camera issue, kindly be informed that unfortunately there will not be any other updates for this issue but it is recommended that you follow the steps below to minimize the effect of this issue:
1. Under certain lighting conditions, especially indoors, the color of your picture may be tinted. In order to prevent this, try to ensure you have the flash enabled and enough ambient light to take pictures. To enable the flash, please press HOME, and then slide to Pictures and Video. In the top right of the screen press the Camera icon to launch the camera. Your phone will automatically rotate into landscape mode. Then press the lightning bolt to turn on the flash.
If your phone has less than 30% power remaining, your flash has been automatically disabled to prevent users from accidentally using their remaining battery life while using the camera. Please charge your phone to over 30% to re-enable the flash.
2. You may consider turning down the saturation on your camera. Turning the saturation down will remove the reddish tint from the center of the photograph.
To turn down saturation please press HOME, then slide to the Photos and Videos tab. Tap the Photo Icon > Menu Icon in the lower right corner > Gears Icon (settings) > Advanced Icon > then tap the right arrow 2 times to go to page 3. Then tap Image Properties > Saturation > then press the “-“(minus) icon to adjust saturation. "

Hope anyone may benefit from this topic
Pink photose problem was solved with hotfix
What do you mean by white balance?
If your phone eat more then 4% in 10h (night) check if all apps which likes to synch auto over the web have sync option set to off.
With freds task manager you can check for apps wasting your battery.
The update did not fix the pink tone entirely, hence the HTC employee mentioning ways to minimize the issue
The hot fix did not work for me either, I think in fact it was better without applying it. Any way to reverse the hot fix?

Just remove it in add/remove programs.

Hahaha!!! ROFL!!! What a copout! That's the biggest load of pap I've ever heard. Basically, if you don't like the pink blotch in the middle of your pictures, take shots that look virtually black and white instead
Are they actually being serious with these responses?

This picture was taken with the supposed "Hot Fix" installed! I am a little embarrassing to send anybody these kind of pictures. I miss my SE X1 camera; and did not expect HTC to have the same quality as Sony's camera; but i do expect a usable camera.

Coud you please add the cab to this topic? I didn't find the task manager you were talking about.
Thanks in advance.
If I read the HTC email correctly, he's saying that there won't be any other fixes to address the "pink blob" issue - he's not completely ruling out any future fix for any camera issue (which is what the subject line of this thread suggests). I'll be deeply dissapointed if they never address the massive over-exposure on flash shots. (OP might like to write back and point out that using the flash is generally impossible because of the over-exposure problem, and that consequently HTC's advice sucks).
guys,
how to make visible owner info (in notofication panel) on my nexus 4?
i didn't make an entry when i first power up the fon, and i dont know how to correct that mistake.
thanks
Settings > Security > Owner info
It's only shown on the lock screen, not on the notification panel.
Or do you mean the top left picture in the quick settings? In which case you can set your photo etc. in the People app under "Me"

the other one.
i did it.
thanks man!!!
I cant find where to change this setting. Whenever I try to get a screenshot of anything, after it gets a screenshot, the phone goes to the photo editor app.
It didnt do this before. I tried resetting all application settings but its still the same. Help anyone?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Go into camramode.
1. Settings
2. General settings (the one all the way to the right)
3. Turn Review off (Here you can turn GPS tag on/off as well as other features)
Hope it helps!
Thanks, tried that but its still the same. I dont think it has got something to do with the camera app as this happens after I take a screenshot. I don't want to edit each and every screenshot I take...

You are an angel!!! I had to disable my photo editor app temporarily because I was too annoyed by it! Someone who tinkered with my phone must have checked that without my knowing. Thanks again!

Yeah its just 1 screen. i was pleasanlty surpised
Cool, wanted to make sure my phone wasn't jacked up
I'm pretty sure I saw a spot in the settings where you can switch it to the tabbed layout if desired.
When you have the settings menu open, click the menu button, both options are available.
Backstory: I don't use the stock android alarm clock because when I am half asleep I can't figure out what icon snoozes and what icon dismisses so I often dismiss my alarm and go back to sleep... no bueno.
Solution: I have always used circle alarm. It has features that I really like but is now due for a visual refresh.
Problem after Nougat upgrade: I have do not disturb modes setup for when I am sleeping. I tried to increase the notification permissions for the app to allow the alarm to go off but when I go to Settings > Apps > Circle Alarm > Notifications, the slider is disabled and says "App determines importance for each notification", so it is stuck on level 3. I have the setting "Override Do Not Disturb" enabled. Driving me crazy and have been late to work the last few days because of it SMH.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
when you go to its setting, tap on 'A' circle icon, it should then enable the slider.

I am an idiot. You are a genius. Cannot believe I didn't think to click that. Didn't even notice it was there to be honest lol. I blame it on the sender labels in gmail that serve no real purpose.
Worked like a charm though, thanks! Will test the alarm this weekend to see how it does
I actually found it by accident lol.
I had a notification that would cause an app to force close when it was set higher than the third slider. Just happened to hit it one day accidentally while adjusting.
/me shrugs.
Glad it helped you out!
Somewhat related note/question...
Has anyone on N had issues with Quick Reply specifically with Hangouts? All my other quick reply compatible apps works perfectly, but hangouts fails to send 70% of the time.

I am able to access the slider and change the settings. However, no matter which setting I apply I still have the peek notification on my screen. All of the other features of the slider work (lock screen behavior, sound, vibration, etc.). For some reason I cannot disable the peeking. At this point I am just curious if I am missing something. I can live with it as is, but just has my curiosity up. Thanks.
Press the "A" button to Edit the Importance level of Notofications. So intuitive, yet it would have taken me forever to figure this out. Thanks!
