My N4 stock camera app normally takes fuzzy pics. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to take pics properly?

HDR mode.
Upload a pic so we can see if it is indeed crappy quality.

Message pop up on lock screen

How do you make the messages pop up on lock screen like he does in this video at 00:30 seconds. I know apps that do it. I like the way he has it in this commercial.

Yeah, its the lock screen widget. Replace the clock widget with the message widget. It doesn't pop up but all you have to do is turn on the screen when you feel a vibration

I know how to do that. If you notice on the video nothing is there and it pops up.

That's just the lock screen messaging widget they're showing with someone in the editing Department taking some creative license with the screen images.

Just some common sense. The phone doesn't pop up that image natively and that image is of the message lock screen widget, so simplest answer is usually the correct one, which leads to the conclusion that it was done up for the benefit of the commercial. You know how in almost all commercials there's the "screen images simulated" tag somewhere, why would LG be the only one to film the real screen? It wouldn't show up well in sunlight through a camera lens, hence the screen image is simulated.
This isn't a conspiracy here people, it's advertising 101...

Can we take Photospheres?

I did not see the option in the camera app so didn't know if we could. I hope we can!

Check in settings for macro shot and if you say that night auto detect is on then turn it off and try it..
