The camera focusing needs another software update. KK update is more to bring our phones up to date with KK improvements.

I was a 1Gadget yesterday to buy casing & overheard the counter guy saying KK update brought problem for quite a few ppl. Their G2 got stuck at boot logo after restart.

LoL they must have tried to take KK ota while having custom recovery.

Not sure about that, but in KitKat, Google change the way of activating GPS in Vanilla Android, either GPS Device+WiFi+Data only or WiFi+Data only or GPS Device Only.

Its basically the same as previously, just different wordings only

Bought yesterday at SevenMobile. Bought with and for my fiancee.

First go to DirectD, but so many people bcoz of promotion. And the RM1,399.00 stock has finished.

Later go to SevenMobile, tokey said Black RM1,399.00 but no stock and offer Red for same price. Grab it quickly since that's the color my fiancee want.

So, my question is:

Is it really not recommended to update to Kit Kat yet? You know, since this phone my fiancee use. So, I don't her facing any issue.
*
its really up to you. There are some people having some problem but there are many more that are very happy with the KitKat update. If you are really afraid then just stay at 4.2.2. You are not loosing any major functionality between the updates also

hmm.. now my 10d HKG finally got KITKAT ota update .. but im currently rooted and installed with CMW recovery .. any1 got any easy way to unroot ?

from what i found .. if im still on stock ROM rooted i still can accept OTA ?? but if CMW installed can i still install OTA ?
*
If you are rooted u may still able to flash the ota successfully but may loose root.

If you have cwm and try to flash the ota, you will end up in boot loop.

my prob is that, when i use 4.2.2 , i can get 4G connection easily but after upgrading to 4.4kk, it seems that I can only use up till HSDPA+, i google it and it seems that some UK user have same problem with me. I update using .kdz vodafone. maybe thats the problem? software version D80220a-VDF-XX

Already change the simcard when i bought g2.

Check your network mode in settings -> tethering & networks -> mobile networks. Make sure modes with LTE are selected

There is no lte option. There are only wdcma/gsm option only
*
Try this

QUOTE
Type in dialer:

3845#*802#,then the secret menu will come up...Then:

1. Go to LTE-Only
2. Modem Settings
3. RAT Selection
4. Select GSM / WCDMA / LTE auto


if you still don't see the LTE option, then you may need to flash other roms. Just a note, most EUR based rom have issue with LTE not sticking upon reboot. You may need to manually set it to LTE everytime you reboot.

Tried the method, seems not supported. I think i need to flash to other rom. Trying the ioroot25 for kitkat and autorec.

anyone use cloudy pro? how buggy is it?

Have you tried to remove system\app\lteconfigs.apk as others have pointed out? Remove it and reboot, you should have an option for lte now.

lens blur is just to make the background look blur and the object in front look sharper (macro /bokeh effect) ... of course that can be done with manual focus or just put your phone camera near to the object in auto focus mode and you can get the same effect.

plus the image from google camera not as good as stock g2 camera quality... my opinion lah after testing the google camera apps.
*
Haha bro, you don't need manual focus to get bokeh effect. You just need to do a macro shot means object must be very near to the lens.

What lens blur does is the object on focus can be 5 or 6 feet away and you still get that bokeh effect , this you can't achieve with stock camera manual or auto focus. anyway of course its just a fun feature but the result is really not bad.

And being android we can enjoy more than 1 camera at a time right? Hehe
