Black clipping (2013 thread) news from samsung.

Hi,
since i bought my note i discovered that it has black clipping issue.
The thing i've notice is that, if i set display mode to "film", in gamma test i can see up to number 3 (with a moderate predominance of red) and then black, instead of 4 and then black.
For this reason i assume that all our problem are based on a bad calibrate gamma but i'm a bit skeptical since some user don't have any problem.
all the thread i've found
There is some news, from samsung (after 14c oct) or supercurio? what do you think about a possible solution with upcoming JB release?

If you have your warranty why dont you go to a samsung service?

I sent mine back, got a new one from another vendor, the new one had the same issue. I actually have not noticed it for some time and watch alot of movies on my Note. I am using rocket rom v12.

Black clipping and blotches have marred Note since day one. Blotches can't be fixed as it's a "feature" of **every** Note's screen. My **fifth** Note also has blotches, but they are around the screen and not easily detectable. Black clipping can only be fixed in kernel: eg. Speedmod kernel has almost completely got rid of it.
Both issues have been discussed to death. If you need more info search Note and Galaxy Nexus forums.

Its a hardware issue. I have questioned many samsung service centers. It only happens when the brightness is low like in night mode. Otherwise its not appreciable.

anyway i asked again on Samsung developers
if they were working on this issue, they should have CLEAR idea by now.

luckily i have the same problem

this is the reply of samsung:
Hi,
We have no further news regarding the update.
We will let you know as soon as we get any any information.

What was beta? Pentile screen?

Its NOT hardware!.. It can easily be fixed if they really wanted to do it.. Try this app called Camera JB+. It comes with a Gallery. Try the gamma image test in that gallery.. Much better gamma setting or whatever..

That clipping is only in very low brightness or in night mode. Its not present at all at the brightness levels present by default. If u decrease the brightness further then only u can appreciate it.

its present but maybe not noticeably..

the problem will be solved only if they will introduce the possibility of gamma tuning.
about note2...it's not pentile!

Microphone gain

Hey guys,
I encountered several times the problem when I film a concert of a band or something like that: Video(graphics) are super, but the sound is terrible! Everything is screwed up..
I think it depends on the microphone gain, but how can i change it?
Or got someone a better solution?

All phones do this. It's cause it's loud and the microphone can't handle it.

You're not true.

This isn't true. Because a friend of mine recorded the same concert with an iPhone and his sound is closely perfect.

Hmm, it depends on the loudness.
I'm too tired to give you my solution tonight.
I will write tommorow about it how to get concerts right microphoned.
Good night, can't wait to tell you this

Any solution in the meantime? Do we have a kernel we can use?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Oh god. My failure, I never wrote that. It's fairly easy. Use a custom kernel and adjust microphone gain with a kernel controlling app. Last time I did it with Trickster MOD kernel settings and it worked fine, my recording had an awesome quality! I don't know if it works with Franco kernel app or faux kernel app? Can anyone tell?

I have both (custom kernel+app).
So what setting is better in order to reduce the noise during recording.

[Q] Launching Google Now by voice

Hey guys,
If you guys have had a look at the new Moto X, then you have seen the new voice features, like how you can start up Google Now with your voice, from anywhere in the phone. Do you know a way to do that on a GS4?
Thanks

Can't do it on the s4

This requires a sensor only the X has.

And therein lies the solution. Just write a tasker profile to launch Google now and kill s voice whenever s voice launches.

Without the moto x low power always on processors, it will eat up your battery though

Hi, I just picked up my SN-9005 from Australia.
This only happens when downloading or uploading via Wifi.. Camera Zoom FX seems working fine, but stock camera app.
A few peoples are suffering this issues in Australia and want to know if this is global issue.

REQ Record in Slow Motion

Hello, I ask if any developer can create twiks or mod to record in slow motion, as is the case for the Galaxy Note 3. Thank you for your hard work

guys but there is no developer who is able to do this mod? from the community would be greatly appreciated ... thanks

Why?
There are many slow motion camera apps in the play store or simply record in 60 fps and convert it to 24 fps.
If you want more you can use after effects of twixtor (or many other apps) to interpolate frames on your pc but that's a too big task for a phone.

perhaps I have not explained well, I require a mod for lg g2 can record in slow motion as it happens for other devices (Samsung Galaxy Note 3, etc..) that mount the snapdragon processor. I do not need the post-production of the movie, but a real camera in slowmotion. I think playing on Build.propr and profiles CameraMedia, it manages to achieve what most users want. thanks

Yessss!!!!

Essentially, he's looking for a camera than can shoot 120fps.
I was wondering the same thing myself. It seems as if the camera/processor are both capable of such a thing, but there's no software support yet.
At least I don't think so.

I'm pretty sure jisnu was working on this mod. I think he said something about 4.4 having a proper software for 120 fps.
