I've been playing with mine since Saturday now and have started to notice some issues.
1. Albums in the music player are not listed correctly. If i have an album by various artists it shows as a different album for each artist. My hero never used to do this.
2. When i charge the battery sometime it stops at around 90% and wont charge anymore until i unplug and plug it back in.
3. Friend stream is set to update every 2 hours but doesn't seem to. And i got no notifications from the Facebook app unless i manually refresh it.
Over all I'm please with the Desire, but I'm starting to think that maybe it was released too early, before all the bugs where ironed out.
Is anyone else having any of these issues?
Why do you think HTC released this phone only at T-mobile?
It's because they needed normal users to find out issues
One album for each artist sounds like you have a different "Album artist" on each track. Windows Media Center etc also shows it as different albums if the album artists are different, even though Album name is the same. I'm guessing that if you keep the "Artist"-tag as it is, and rename the "Album Artist"-tag to "Various Artists" or something like that using a tag editor, it will appear as one album.
I don't have a Desire yet, so can't confirm it, but I recently did a big job of fixing my entire music catalog to avoid this problem.
The problem with the Facebook app is a pain in the arse, it doesn't update whatever you set it too. Had the same problem on the Hero, so I assume it's the app itself.
Plus Friendstream is overated and lacks alot of features.
Can't wait to root and remove all of that crap, can't even uninstall the Facebook app.
I'm using the facebook app. Every message I get it updates. Friendstream I deleted and use the native applications. Albums work but only when they are labelled correctly. One of my albums didnt work, named it correctly and now its 100% fine.

What we mean by Facebook updates, is where it's suppose to notify you at the top of the screen...and it doesn't.
I HATE that there is no dedicated camera shutter button coz I'm vain and all so if I want to take a pic of myself sometimes I'll end up touching the screen when trying to press the trackball etc! It's damn hard holding the lower part of the phone where the trackpad is and press it if you wanna take pic of yourself lol

not sure wither its normal for AMOLED or not, but the OP saw it as an issue, so was wondering wither its his device fault or his eye is just more sensitive to take the "pink-ish-ness" of the screen

Hi, i'm searching for an app to record my dreaming's words. I would like it to record only when someone talks, is there any chance to find something useful to me?
haha i know what you mean! a voice recorder activated by voice so we dont have 6 hours of audio to look through
The only thing I could find while sniffing around was an app that does sound triggered recording, but only by dialing your voicemail number and recording it to that.
Sounds like a simple enough app to write though, perhaps there's a sympathetic Dev out there that could knock up an app for you.
Lol nice idea is there anythin out there like this? Please let us know if ya can find somethin worth to try

I know what you mean.
My mother will telling me that I can answer her questions when I am asleep, but I can never remember doing that.
What you could do is just use a recorder, and record everything during your sleep. Then copy that sound file to your PC and use cool edit to open it, and look through the sound waves. When you see some big spikes on the waves go to them and see if youre saying anything. Might be kinda creepy though, who knows what kind of sounds you'll pick up lol
RL Watcher , it's in the Market.
That said, not too sure if the microphone is going to be good enough (Thanks to Samsungs settings, background sound is noisy!).
Maybe you should change your Title a bit to attract attention. You are looking at an app that can switch on the voice recording when the decibel level increases beyond pre-defined level.
Any ideas?
PS : This can be helpful in a lot of other situations too. You just need to know the minimum decibel level.
Dreams feel real while we're in them. It's only when we wake up that we realize something was actually strange.
I can access your mind through your dreams using my Android.
I have done a little RnD and made a little progress.
Whenever there is a sound a number is incremented per second of sound.
It works with my galaxy S mic very well.
THERE IS NO INTERFACE AT ALL
I want you to test it.
There is no fear of any harm.
The screen stays on as long as the app is active.
But as you may or may not know a black screen on the SGS is an off screen.
The way to work the app is
Install the app.
Set the phone down on your table/nightstand.
Open the app
Don't click anything
Go to sleep (you don't really need to sleep just speak in intervals in a moderately quiet room/simulate your bed room/simulate your sleep voice)
Hopefully make noise in your sleep. Not very loud noise is needed.
Wake up
Press the menu key...you may have to wait a fraction of a sec.
A notification will give you 2 numbers.
Tell me those numbers.(You can round off NO 2 if you want to)
If first number is > 1 then you are successful else not successful.
EXIT THE APP WITH THE BACK BUTTON
If you exit with another way then you may have to restart the phone to get your mic working fine again(stupid mic implementation of mic on SGS).
Test it and tell me how it goes.

I don't know about that for now.
The app is still in its alpha stage.
We can keep it in a proposed list of features.
Right now the app only lists number of seconds you have been making noise.
The SGS has a weird implementation of AudioRecoding
I am still going through the docs.
Once I manage to implement the recorder, more features will be added.
Please reply with the values you are getting from the app.
Thanks
Gonna test the app now
EDIT: Crashes immediatly on Cyanogen Mod
From the time I've got the note 8, I've always been able to just take a screenshot and right after that it'd open my screenshot and i'd be able to edit it straight away (drawing on it etc.). However, for the past few hours now, that doesn't work anymore, initially it stopped opening the screenshots straight away but, it would show up in the notification panel and I'd click on it and be able to edit it like before. But now even that doesn't work it shows up in the notification panel and I click on it and it give different apps to open it with (paper artist etc.). Any suggestions? I haven't installed or uninstalled anything recently, I'm running the stock rom. I haven't touched anything to be honest but, it changed all of a sudden. Am planning of doing a factory reset, but I'd rather not. I'll be really grateful for any help.
edit:-ok, if I click edit it only opens with paper artist
I just a factory reset, but even that didn't help. Any ideas? Anyone please help, I'm desperate

Hmm i had never thought of that, I had been taking the screenshots using the swipe screen method. I just tried using the s-pen and it worked like before. I used to take the screen shots like that before(s-pen) and only recently started using the swipe screen method. My memory tells me I edited the screen shots the same way using the two methods, but I'm pretty sure my memory's wrong. Thank you so much,this had me bugging out.
Just wondering, when you take a screen shot using the swipe screen method on your phone, does it let you edit like it does normally(using the s-pen) or does is bring up the choose app thing?
Anyway thanks non the less, much appriciated.

It just gives me the option to choose an app to edit with. Does not give me the immediate edit option like when using the S-Pen.

Uh? Dude you understand that we have an *UNLOCKED* bootloader? If you lost your phone it is pretty much toast. Now you wish we had a locked bootloader with KNOX..
I've noticed if you snap a photo with LG Camera app and immediately press the back button or switch off the screen, the photograph is not going to be saved and you will loose it. You really need to wait until you see a preview of it in a circle on the right side.
And that time can be up to 2-3 seconds, which is really annoying.
Native google camera doesn't have this bug.
Has anyone else experienced such behavior?

No problem here...... Just tried it.
If I snap and immediately press the back button it quits the camera app but if I go back into the app the thumbnail of the shot is there.
So no, my G3 takes the shot and saves immediately.

That's why it takes a while.. HDRs don't render instantly and need some time to process. The reason it doesn't save when you back out is because it's still taking pictures.

So, I understand that, but why does it need to discard the photo if I close it too fast ? Can't it just schedule the processing in the background like Google camera does ?
With Google camera if it is in HDR mode and I switch off the screen immediately after taking a picture, the photo will still be saved.

I believe it's because the way HDR works is it takes multiple pictures at different exposures and puts them together so maybe the lg camera takes the pictures more slowly and you're quitting it while the shutter is still open?

What is the point of quitting camera app immediately after making a shot? I think you probably want something that is nonexistent. Shoot with your Google camera if you in so desperate need to quit camera app after each shot. What else to advice

NONSENCE is your BS, that you talking about. All other phones are unresponsive while taking HDR pictures. Because of simple fact that taking HDR requires he11 of lot of postprocessing. So why talk NONSENSE and demand G3 to make it instantly?

Okee first off your comment is rude and disrispectful, secondly if you don't want your photo's getting deleted deselect hdr, wait 2-3 seconds or contact LG/stock based rom developer to enable processing in the backround for hdr photos

As I said before, a google camera app doesn't have this problem. It produces hdr fine, even if you close the app immediately.
Obviously you gonna ask why am I not using it. I find that lg camera produces better results in HDR mode.
I usually don't reply to semi trolly post but I just took an HDR and instantly hit the back button and it doesn't save. (Of course) but I did the same thing and waited MAYBE a second maybe less and the photo finished processing and saved even though I backed out.
@op does the phone close when you take a picture or are you just intentionally hiring the back button that quickly on purpose? I literally had to try to NOT take a picture to keep it from processing. In just curious why someone would back out of taking a picture each time so fast. Well an HDR anyway

I presume that LG camera made that behaviour intended, programmers decided that if back or home buttons pressed immediately after pic is shot then use decided not to save picture so camera stops processing completely and doesn't save photo on memory. I think it is not problem it is a feature.

1. I do not talk nonsense especially when photography is the subject.
2. My previous phone was a Z2 which I would hardly call inferior.
3. If you wish to take a non standard photo then you also have to allow the processor time to complete it's action. As such 3 seconds (which by the way it is nothing like this on my G3) is adequate.
4. What gives you the right to insult any user. All that was given to you was an example of a waiting period prior to doing something else. In no way did that give you the right to be offensive.
