I'm going to pull the trigger soon on an N4. That being said I was extremely excited to see that Faux has put together a color calibration app for it. Being an ex T-Mo employee I was able to play with the N4 extensively and the only turn off for me was the screen.
Any who, I was wondering if any of you have used the app and what your impressions are on it. Maybe snap some photos with a point and shoot of your before and after? Thanks are in order and any input is greatly appreciated!
*BTW I know there already is a thread on this subject. My main request here is to have someone post some before and after pics to see the difference in PQ myself*

I've got some kind of fog on the underside of my screen. It doesn't affect anything and I can only see it in low light and only occasionally...but its bugging the heck out of me.
Anyone have any tips? I'm very comfortable doing it, just want to know if anyone has any pointers for me.
I don't have an answer, but I would love to hear some more details. I may have a similar issue...

i know a camera app is not natively installed,
but can anyone of you lucky folk to be playing with your nexus take a reasonable light level typical picture so i and others can get an idea of the image quality?
be much appreciated.
cheers.
p.s i'm thinking of bodging up a little mirror attachment to 'convert' the camera to (at least) 'upwards facing' or in other words, if the tab is held flat, forward facing...
i like dodgy things like that...
Arstechnica has some pictures taken during their review. Also they take them from both within Skype, and using a Camera App built for the N7 on the market. Huge difference, but its still a low end camera.
Here's a pic in my house with only the 4 kitchen lights on. http://www.imgur.com/u06De.jpeg
cheers, i guess its 'ok' for its purpose.
I got used to my ipod 4th gen camera for the odd snap when out and about, it seems it should do that job ok, and sure app thats aren't compatible will get an update to optionally use it. kind of kills 'augmented reality' though doesn't it? was the new big thing, and now, uh, nah sorry google says no.
worse cam is about the only loss of selling my 'pod i think, but will probably upgrade my phone package which should have a reasonable cam as they do these days.
cheers.

amusing contrast in the two pics there! -
i'm imagining you winning the pink mac girl over with your nice gadgets & N7 in the cafe or wherever then taking her back to... uh flash-beezy's room.
"oh... "
but maybe she'll won't care by then. my room is also a tip but my gf is past noticing, worn down.
anyway with a bit of natural light the pic isn't too bad, indoor is as expected, but for snaps to msg to folk or make note of things, seems ok.
thanks - keep the 'what N7 owners take pictures of' coming...

Lol. Haven't been able to put my Nexus down
Plus my Fiancé is suppose to clean her crap from in front of my TV LOL
just to mention, i see that instagram has updated their app to be nexus7 camera compatible, as it wasn't before apparantly.
so you can make those dodgy pics more presentable.
in other news, initial tests of my 'angled mirror attachment' idea seem ok using ipod as a tester. just need a little mirror that is less scratched than the one i've got at the moment.
i think being able to have a 'forward facing' (when tablet held flat) cam meaning you can visually frame things up would be handy for alot of folk.

Hey guys,
I decided that I want to have a simple clock app running at night when my N7 is plugged in. I searched the market and found a lot of options; some with some cool features like "shake or tap to read time" and some with a flashlight built in.
Anyway, do I need to be concerned about "burn-in" with the Nexus 7's screen? (I didn't see any apps where the time bounced around like an old school screensaver on a CRT monitor!) I'm guessing this just isn't an issue with these screens, but I wanted to make sure.
Finally, does anybody have an app they like for this? Or a specific feature to look for?
Thanks!
Billy

I'm happy using the regular clock. It works I landscape, and when you touch the screen, it dims down.

BEWARE !! I just found a burn-in on my screen because of this, and I still don't know if it's going or staying ... damn defects !
Hey guys so I got my nexus 4 about a week and a half ago and there are some things I love and hate. The screen is what's really getting to me. It has a yellowish tint and the viewing angles are pretty awful. Is this a software or hardware issue? I've heard some kernel updates fix it but I can't find it. I just find the screen not as sharp as it should be. I'm coming from an HTC one x and that display was just absolutely gorgeous. Any help would be appreciated

I know some phones have a yellowish tint until the glue dries. Iphones have had this issue but I am not sure about the N4.

If you are rooted, you might want to give this a try:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2035672
If you are not rooted, I believe there is another app, but it just puts an overlay on the screen. So, some have been running into issues with that.
I've been running Franco's app, and I have to say I am very pleased with it.
there's already a thread for this, you should find some answers there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1990276
Is anyone having issues with the LG G2 touch screen.
The things I'm noticing is
guesture typing it loses it's trail and begins a new word. So if I'm trying to spell "Think," it'll get the "TH" then space it out and get some other string of letters etc.
Web Browsing; it'll click a link I'm not trying to
Zooming in on photos and scrolling while it's zoomed it'll sparatically zoom out or move to the next pic
There's several other things that I can't seem to get to replicate! Anyway with my research here's what I came up with.
My issue is much like this but far less easy to replicate!!! And not nearly as bad. How ever I was able to do it when my phone started having symptoms I pulled up the note pad and it did exactly like this just way less significant.

Here's another forum with people going through issues!
I'll take that as a no
I was having issues like that with gesture typing on both swift and stock keyboards. Basically it would just add all kinds of random entries. In another thread someone suggested using a microfiber cloth on the screen. It seems to be working now.

Just noticed that mine does the same thing... But it's not consistent, only happens once in a while. After I reboot it's fine. Really weird.
I posted earlier, looks like it didn't make it up. I had same issue, I tried flashing back to stock, assuming I had done something with rooting it, tried making sure that it was not an issue with ram bring to low, nothing fixed it. Took phone back to att, replaced it, havent had the issue once since then. I'm rooted, flashed and modded work no I'll effects. If you are within your return period, I would suggest that you return.

Cool I'm glad there's some good ones out there. As soon as my replacement Zagg Symphony Dry comes in I will switch out phones.

Well I have seen some quality control issues with these phones for sure... I'm still on stock and not rooted and mine does this. Going to have to go by the Verizon store Monday and get a new one.

Well I got a replacement phone and the problem is still happening. So I went into the shed grabbed my old Cyanogenmod MyTouch 3G and I plan to use that until the Nexus 5 comes out. Hopefully I'll get a launch unit.
Just holding this little phone makes me feel all nostalgic lol. I bought it in 2009 and it still holds a decent charge.

Are you just going to wait until the nexus 5 comes out and then take your g2 back, tell them that this is the second one that has done this, and demand they replace it with the "newer g2" ie Nexus 5? I thought about this!
I'm hoping this is a software issue..mine is really annoying
