Has anybody ripped the newest camera app from the new update? or does anybody have screenshots of the newest camera app. as far as i know, its the only cosmetic change to stock sense and i dont feel like falshing an entirely new rom and losing my 150+ apps. Thank you so much in advance
Hello Guys
Let's share the bugs that everyone experiencing with the new stock JOP40C Android 4.2 for Galaxy Nexus
I'll go first
I have a problem when in a call the phone keeps doing a weird vibration and once i done the call i find the phone on the homescreen and have to go to the notifications menu to hang up
the other issue is randomly force close for the launcher and some apps
the camera is very laggy when rotating from landscape to portrait
anybody experiencing those issues ?
Ok guys anybody experiencing random reboot on the stock android 4.2 Galaxy Nexus
You can star this for Google to fix : http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39912​
I am not. Also, and unrelated, I'd like to point out the redundancy of your title. Android 4.2 issues on, say android 4.0.4 would be revolutionary, but as you've directed this... Anyways, did you update ota, or flash the image manually? I've read of many issues from the image flashes prior to ota, that I haven't experienced at all since my ota on my drive home.
In stock browser in full screen mode i'm having a weird effect on loading bar on top, don't know if thats supposed to be like that or not.. just strange and sometimes the adress bar becomes bugged strange behavour
Yeah you might wanna reword that title...
Anyway, this update SUCKS!!!!!!! I was trying to be positive about it... Focusing on the cool new stuff... But then that shifted to at least neutral with the crappy changes.... But now this just sucks!!!!!!!!! I just got my first launcher FC EVER!!!! On my galaxy nexus.
No root, never flashed, been stock all the way on this phone just like any regular user. I used to root on my tmobile g2 but decided to keep my gnex all stock.
So what he hell!?!?! Force closing stock launcher!?!?!? Are you freaking kidding me?!? This update is turning into a total joke, its not funny google! Your pulling anAPPLE move on your most loyal customers(nexus customers!)
EDIT: this is a rant.. I was pissed at how badly 4.2 has screwed my phone up. But no i didnt mean the part about being as bad as apple..
I do think 4.2 sucks though. Especially compared to 4.1.2, in my experience they seemed to have sacrificed new features and "style" over stability with 4.2

Drama queen, much?

"the camera is very laggy when rotating from landscape to portrait" --> Yes, this is extremely annoying.
And also I find that when the camera shot in landscape mode, about 10% of the upper and lower part of the viewfinder are cropped (i.e. the things you actually shot are more than what you saw in the camera app)
1). I don't have problem with phone call
2). Yes, launcher FCed! But only happened once after first reboot after flashing factory image.

No, just needed to rant
Plus the fc had just happened like 5min before i posted that. It was weird... I was browsing here on chrome, then pressed the home button and tried opening the launcher, and it got stuck loading for like 10sec... Then fc'd. Soo i tried again and it got stuck again and fc'd. Third time it finally worked.
I expect these things on rooted devices or custom launchers... But on stock its just sad, especially when it's never happened before the ota.
Mines running very stable.

Yep
Flickering in Notification Bar
I have observed one strange thing on takju 4.2, If the notification window in already pulled down and and suddenly some new notification comes(like sms, email etc), all the notifcations start flickering wildly till I clear them all.
I am on stock no rooting nothing.
GNEX 4.2 default browser
Hi
Really hope someone can answer this for me, I've got a stock GNEX just got 4.2 by deleting my Google Services Framework cache and hitting update. Everything seems to be ok, but I still have the stock (blue icon) browser, I thought the default browser is chrome on 4.2. Also I don't seem to be able delete it, no biggie just annoying to have an app that I'm never going to use.
Anyway to remove it manually without rooting etc..
Many Thanks in advance to anyone that can answer this
Only issue I've noticed so far is the camera rotation is indeed very slow on my phone too.
Now, in 4.2, every notification makes my phone vibrate. This doesn't happen with earliers versions. I don't know if it is a "new feature", but I don't like it.

According to Google : Chrome is not part of the AOSP but for the new devices such as Nexus 4,7,10 it's the default browser but old devices like Galaxy Nexus i guess for now the default browser will be the Android Browser , who knows maybe with next major release of Android that will change
As for how to delete the default browser you need root privilege to delete the app apk from the system apps using something like Root Explorer
I had three soft reboots already since yesterday (at least that I noticed, maybe more while I wasn't looking). This is a clean install (flash_all.sh from the factory image).
To hell with it, I'm going back to my beloved CM10.
I noticed that this problem was relatively prevalent with the G3 and that there were a few threads a while ago, but those went unresolved.
Except for a factory reset, has anyone found a work around with this issue? I only just noticed it happening with my ATT G3 when I rooted it...
I'm not sure if that's the issue. I also replaced the regular media profiles xml file with the one that is modded, as I heard that may help, but it did not.
Is there a workaround for this?

Seriously, how can a brand new phone right out of the box have the native camera app crash indefinitely until LG and Verizon (among other carriers) roll out a patch 6-9mo later if we are lucky!?
I'm so pissed about this it isn't even remotely entertaining. Can you install 3rd party camera apps? Yes. Are they full of bloatware and not as simple and streamlined to use? Yes, usually. It is just ridiculous. I'm un-rooted and within 2 weeks this was happening. What a @##$%-show.
Can't believe this hasn't been addressed. There is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/app-xcam-lg-v5-1-0-t2873604. It didn't work for me though. Still crashes even after following the directions to a "T". Even paid for it and nothing changed. So, I got a refund.
Update to post.....

Upon further attempt, I did get the XCam app and settings to finally work. So, the link above does actually give you the streamlined app with modifications and ability to save to SD (after purchasing the settings app, rooting, and applying the SDFix app). I must have missed a step.
Still SUCKS that the native LG app is broke.

What does that mean? What latest update? I saw your post from that link and you state v10 h...what does that mean? Maybe an OTA update from your carrier? I have Verizon, I assume we are not battling the same thing here regarding LG G3 for Verizon.

That would be the last firmware that LG released for the international version of G3 (D855). I assume that all carriers base their updates on the official updates from LG.

Ahhh, ok. So, obviously I can't get updates for this phone unless Verizon rolls that out, correct? Not like I can download something independently from LG and upgrade it right? Other than custom ROM. Which I may be closing in on. I did have good luck with the XCam app though...it uses the base LG camera app but tweaks the @#[email protected]!# out of it. It has worked nicely once I finally got it going, if anyone stumbles upon this.

All you have to do is disable OK Google Hotword detection in the Google app. You could still use the feature through Nova Launcher if you're using it but that will solve the problem. It was a huuuuuge relief for me when I found that.
"OK, Google" crashes the app!?

So, I disabled the hotword feature in the Google app under the voice settings and enabled in Nova Launcher (love this launcher btw) and lo and behold it appears that the native camera app actually indeed works again, with zoom. I haven't really used video yet.
In all fairness I haven't used the native camera app in a while and I've been using the XCam app workaround (which has been great, I almost like the interface better), so I'm not sure if this indeed worked or not. On a side-note I don't have the "Ok, Google" feature actually working from the Nova Launcher (it is enabled) but I could care less as I just go to the actual Google app and then say "Ok, Google" and it of course works from there. Thanks for the help man....

Hi, did anyone had found a bug creating photospheres pictures with the Streetview app or orther, i have oxygen 3.1.3 and when i tried to create a photosphere the app just take 1 photo and does not allow me to continue taking the other photos, have someone tried it after the firmware update Oxygen 3.2.1?
The bug is still there with 3.2.1.
Have anyone tried in a custom rom?
I can confirm this bug with OOS 3.2.1
Seems to be fixed in 3.2.2 thankfully. Photospheres and panoramas are now quick and reliable. Google cam still doesn't show in the store but apk mirror to the rescue!

This is not working in 3.2.7, if it was ever fixed in 3.2.2. then it is broken again
I contacted support, they don't know how to solve it, don't say if this a known bug which they are planning to fix and just suggest to return the phone
This has been reported by me the day the phone came out. It hasn't been fixed and probably will never be. Haven't tried a custom rom. I think it has something the do with the bad camera drivers. Since snapchat also has issue and any other 3rd party app also is struggling a bit.
Its finally here! The first final release for Nougat 7.0
For now its through SPFT. If you want the OTA you'll have to wait until next month.
http://community.umidigi.com/thread-6292-1-1.html
Enjoy!
OTA "is working" for me...
I have to download .zip file from UMI DIGI site copy to SD card and use "Local update" in phone update menu. No personal data will be removed.
Hi i am using version from october 20161017.
Must i first upgrade to 20161721 and then upgrade via SPFT to Nougat?
No need for that. Flash it from your current rom.
Battery consumption
Hi. What about battery consumption in 7?? It looks more battery consumption for me ....
Is the camera any better?

Because this is the first official version of Nougat the optimisation for Wakelocks isn't the best. Also when you upgrade to a totally new Android version you need a at least 3 charge cycles where you go from 100% to 5% before you charge your device up to 100% again. One thing I've done due to the poor Wakelock management is using greenify, it works even better if you have a rooted device.

The dark camera issue has somewhat been resolved in third party apps. I noticed a bug that still persist using the selfie camera on snapchat, taking photos looks fine but if you try video recording the screen goes very dark like the previous dark camera issue.
If the poor camera was just down to software don't you think Umi would've fixed it already? I mean i had this phone since July 2016 and not much has changed. I never got this device for the camera though but for the reasonable hardware for a very cheap price.

Try Open camera app on play store. It stopped twitching of the picture. But it was dark. If it's not great!
Im not an expert but i think the problem is that they take the camera module from i.e. Samsung Galaxy s6 and some new processor from MediaTek and can't make them fully compatible...or something like that...
i am asking here because in the umi forums no one seems to be interested in responding to questions.
does anyone still has android 6 installed and rooted? i would need the apk: mtkquicksearchbox
this is the grey searchbox enabled on the homescreen by default. with this one you could search and find everything and i have no idea why i now have to cope with that bad google one.
Any root methods for Android 7.0 of UMi Super?

I have bad news for you. THe Mtkquicksearchbox doesn't work on Nougat 7. Before switching over i saved the APK and when i tried to install it after i upgraded from N6 to N7 the app just won't install.
I believe it has to do with something on the writing permissions on the system. Even after rooting my phone and giving rw permission in es file explorer it wouldn't work.
I prefer the mtk quicksearch over google and hope this might come back in a later software upgrade by Umi but i highly doubt they will put it back in future releases of N7, i could be wrong though.

thank you for this answer, i suspected something like this.
Sim Card Not Detected
I updated my Android Umi Super through the local method.
But now my simcards cannot be detected.
I have tried re-booting...cold boots, Airplane Mode On Off
Simcard removal... Another Local Install
Etc.
What Should I do.
Updated to the latest firmware, now I'm getting constant soft reboots...
Tried through local OTA and the soft reboots started. Redownloaded and managed to get it to flash through local OTA again in between soft reboots, no change. Full factory reset, no change.
Tried updating through SPTool, still getting the same soft reboots every minute or so.
Any ideas out there?
Pls so I shouldn't download the v7.01...... Again if there will be problem right.
Microphone not working well after update
Since my upgrade to android 7 on my UMI super I have found a few bugs:
1.) Banking app is not working any more
2.) When I do a video chat with my friends they can't hear me at all and mostly hear white noise. This is the same on skype, messenger, watsapp calling etc. This was not present in android 6. I have reset my phone and still both problems exist Anyway to revert back to android 6?
Have they fixed the crap/no gps lock issues??? Or is that just a pipe dream???
