anyway, any way to manual focus our camera?

This post has been edited by brotan: Feb 5 2013, 04:18 PM

tap on screen is still auto focus bro

i mean like those dslr i can manually control the focus

since i find no answer from forumer on my macro manual focus, i just ask uncle google

found this app called camera360 ultimate on playstore.

wow, their macro zooming is amazing

err... not really got a macro button but when zoom very close up item, the focus able to capture

unlike stock camera will "bounce" back with a red box

Alright guys. The ori uk wall charger and cables just arrived

Those pmed for reservation I will pm you guys later

Btw tested a few samples, all can get gcc 1800ma. Hehe

Thx a lot bro

Just tested the wall charger for a few min. I don't hear any hissing sound even my ears are close to the charger

A video to prove it


Edit: Fixed your coding before the page gets messed up. (fruitie)

you need to charge your phone only can use. and look for "current_avg". 1800ma is max for note2

anything above 1400ma is ok

if yours below 1400ma, then possible your charger is not 2a or cable issue

not worth it lor. and your phone will look gigantic to include solar panel + plus need to take care make sure you don't scratch it

also energy absorbtion is low for solar (at least for now)

if have those energy source like iron man one. that one more practical

you guys want to try apacer? so far sold many 32gb cl10 no return at all

well, i didn't ask the user what phone they use but i guess sure got a few note2 user right? anyway, just a suggestion

might be note2 or sandisk issue

darn i forgot i am a note2 user. so far my apacer 32gb cl10 still surviving

don't have. mdc not yet bring.

btw, you got many 1080p video is it?

anyone got knowledge about this?

Banking malware: A highly specialised industry has popped up around capturing authentication information to access online financial institutions. While it started as simple key-logging software designed to capture your username and password, it has led to an advanced game of cat and mouse between criminals and banks.
was reading up an article and stumble upon this

Modern banking Trojans are available for devices running BlackBerry, Windows, Android and more. These Trojans can capture SMS messages and record videos of your screen while you login, uploading YouTube-like videos for the criminals to see. One gang busted by the FBI in 2010 attempted to steal nearly US$220mil (RM660mil) from victims.

Haha. I normally don't check permission

So what permission items need to pay special attention to?

fruitie just checked out your blog. Mostly photos of yummy foods

ok all. my ori uk travel + ori cable sales thread is up

thx for all the support to do the testing when i just got only the samples

last time i was on stock browser. but after some time, i can't seems to select the text in lyn.

that's why i switched to chrome. haven't tried firefox though (i hate firefox desktop version. very messy layout)

anyone also has this issue? (can't select text in lyn)

The apps basically read a file location in some system level directory and the file is from samsung

i didn't compare if the numbers match the real charging experience but your observation of inconsistent reading can be due to the way the connection is made from cable to phone and cable to charger (for the same charger & cable)

and current value is directly affected by the resistance of the cable

Those who studied physics will know the simple law

V = IR (V = voltage, I = current, R = resistance)

Since V is always constant (assuming your charger is stable), then an increase of R will decrease I and vice versa

And R (resistance) is affected by

1) copper wire length
2) copper wire width
3) copper wire material quality

##########

So in short, you need to find the right combo of charger + cable to get highest GCC value

Cables are always the last thing people will look at when they want to put the blame on slow charging

yes, voltage will drop in the phone cuz li ion battery in stable mode is 3.7V while charger output is 5V. So there is a step down circuit inside (Note : You can't charge the Li Ion battery directly 5V. That will kill off your battery). So it is not a degradation but any drop in voltage is on purpose

anyway, my understanding (can be wrong), voltage is something constant on all chargers and from my sample measurement of ori and oem charger, the differences in the output voltage negligible (from 4.97V up to 5.2V)

so the only variable between manufacturers are charger current output + cable spec & quality

actually the right term for charger performance is, its power output but i dont' want to confuse you guys further

bro

sorry i misunderstand you. you mean our wall socket, right?

that one i don't know but i thought since our wall can power up our TV, fridge, etc, charging a Note2 should be a piece of cake?

hi bro

let me give you simple illustration

water flowing through bigger diameter pipes will be faster than small diameter ones right?

if you have a water pump, pumping water through a long pipe. And that pipe has different diameters from start till end where the water flows out.

the final water flow rate will be determined by the smallest diameter in the entire pipe because it is the bottleneck of the entire system

imagine now

water = current
pipe = cable

your cable has many parts. the long cable itself. the connector to the USB port. the connector to the micro USB port

all these build up the entire cable "system". as shown in the above water example, as long as 1 of the part is not in optimum condition, it will drag the entire system down

as to your experiment, yes you try to use the same setup as close as possible but once you unplug and plug in again, you already change the settings a bit, so can affect the final current

just one thing to note

even those ori cable that can achieve 1800 constantly will also have this problem (unplug and after some time plug again will have different readings) but in my opinion, i think the ori cable has a higher current carrying capacity than 1800, so you can't see the difference.

but those not so optimum cables because it can't reach the max of 1800, any slight change, you see it

Example (assuming charger can reach 3A max current)

If ori cable max current carrying capacity = 2300ma, when you plug and unplug it will varies between 2000ma to 2300ma. However because Note2 allows only max 1800ma, you can't see the change

If non optimum cable max current carrying capacity = 1500ma, when you plug and unplug it will varies between 1200ma to 1500ma. But now you can see the change because it is below the max Note2 allowed current

Hope it make sense

NOTE : This is my theory only hah. I didn't do any scientific experiments to prove it
