Adding ffc to nexus one, suggestions?

Well I have some extra time and money on my hands, and I was wondering if this would be possible in any way? If I got the same exact camera for the nexus one, is there any room or any way I could add it in? I was thinking of cramming it in there, and having both cameras connected to a switch/button I could have coming out the top of the phone? So I could make it where if the switch/button is pressed it would change which camera being used. I've looked at teardowns and I can't tell if this would be possible or not, nor do I even know if its technically possible or not because I don't know if the camera connections could be set up this way. Anyone tried this before?/Suggestions?/Discussion?

hi
i dont know how to help you but i am very sure, that there was a hardware mod where someone added a front facing camera to a phone that didn`t have one.
i think it was even featured on the xda frontpage and it might have been a samsung phone.
you might wanna look that one up and maybe it helps you
good luck with your Project!

Yeah, I remember seeing that on Engadget, it was a Galaxy S variant if I remember correctly.

Yeah I looked into that a little but this is a little bit of a different situation, considering those phones had an actual slot available for a ffc.

True, what about the proximity and light sensors in the to left corner of the Bezel? Do you use auto brightness?

I could easily go without that lol but I guess I'm wondering more about being able to attach two nexus one cameras to a switch, what parts would I use and is it possible? I don't know anything about that

Optimus touchscreen not as good as apple?

I've noticed when scrolling down pages etc that occasionally the touchscreen seems to miss a spot, like it's not sensing any movement in that particular area of the screen, a "deadspot" if you will..
has anyone else noticed a similar occurance? On my Iphone 3GS I noticed no such issues.
The basic concept behind a capacitive screen is that it has a grid dot array, and senses current change between any multiple "nodes" and then registers your input accordingly. If you look at your screen under the sun you will see this grid dot array, with many tens of dots splattered around the screen..
However, I noticed my old iPhone 3GS had a LOT more of these dots on the screen. I'm wondering if it's just my screen protector interfering with touch motions, or if its the fact that the grid array isn't comprehensive enough.
TL;DR
Does anyone notice dead spots on the touchscreen of their Optimus 2X?
Also, I notice I need to aim slightly above my intended target when pressing links and such, does anyone else have this issue?
Thanks.

No deadspots that I can register, potential culprit could be the kernel you are using.
As for the aiming slightly above issue, I agree with you, if I use my thumb I really aim a bit higher, but if I touch with my pointer finger, it is dead on
I cannot compare this touchscreen to iphone because I've never owned one, but responsiveness and precision is as good as on Galaxy S which my brother currently has

I have noticed no deadspots or lags (despite of some leaked roms with this particular known issue..)
Compared to my friend's Iphone 4, noticed no difference..

Iphone4 displays are LG displays..so apart from the resolution,everything is same..!!

Apart from the resolution, the screen, the digitizer and the screen size? That would seem very different to me.

Well its a 3.5inch in an iphone so yeah the size is def different..
Do i have to spell that out as well :-\

It smells like a hardware problem. I never had it and I never heard anyone have it. Send it to service.
Actually our touch its pretty good. 10 points of multitouch.
What I remember is that with gr1 rom from modaco if i recall correct some raws on the right side were dead so you couldnt hit "p" easy but that was roms problem. CM or stock are fine.

I think you got a bad apple (no pun intended)... I upgraded from iphone 3gs/Xperia x10 to optimus, had the three of them side by side for some time, and the o2x's screen responsiveness is, at very least, on par to iphone 3gs. X10 with wolfbreak's rom was a little bit less responsive, but no compaints about optimus 2x. A dead spot issue looks like a hardware fault.
And sorry for my bad english...

Yeah, I meant the display felt less responsive/precise, not considering the dual/multitouch capabitities, bcos wasn't the focus of the discussion...

What ROM are you using? Maybe you're running some bad kernel with the touch-bug? For example Pauls r23 have it. Try neoblaze. Or if your running a stock rom, what version is it? I think there is one stock with the bug also, not sure.

No touchscreen unresponsiveness here

My touchscreen is as good as apples too. It's very responsive!
Every person saying it's not as good as apple have a bad firmware or a hardware problem, I think.

HTC One RIGHT Side of Camera Issue

My HTC One camera is horrible but I think I have nailed down the problem.
The left side is always perfectly sharp. From center to the right side it is out of focus mush.
I am guessing that it's a misaligned sensor.
I am a widely published photographer and I certainly didn't buy this to use as a camera for anything other than record pictures for my normal job but I do know what I am doing.
I ill take it in and test it against a store phone and have them swap it out if the store one is better.
If I had the sharpness across the frame that I have on the left side I would be thrilled with it.
Anyone else seeing the right side of frame quality issue?

I am having no issues with my camera, I love it, the ZOE option is very versatile. No sharpness issues at all, in fact the auto focus works much better then my lte

I am not seeing this issue. This definitely sounds like a hardware problem. I think HTC has been plagued by quality issues, unfortunately.

Permanent red tint on screen

Hey guys,
I started noticing bit of red tint on lower half of the screen.
I am aware viewing angle make difference, but no matter which orientation/angle I look from it is still there.
Anyone else having similar issue?
Also, if this is a defect, is this the kind that retailer usually replace for consumer?
It is giving me headache looking at the screen for a prolonged period even though the tint is not severe.
Sent from my SM-N910U using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Its very, very slight on mine. Nothing that would make me consider returning it though.

Also, screen tint shift based on angle is a lot more frequent than my s3 (i9300). I tilt note4 by even 5deg and I see colour shift already, but nothing like that on s3.
Can someone confirm this please.
Thank you.

Yes, my phone does this. However I've checked a lot of shop display units and have noticed many are better and some are worse than mine. The sad fact is that there seems to be a bit of a screen lottery going on and it's luck whether you get a good screen or a bad one.

You can try it. If they have a display unit that is obviously better than your current one and they can see that. Problem is you might end up with a replacement that is just as bad or worse!

Thats been the case since the Galaxy Note 2, even my note 3 has a slight reddish tint on the top part of the screen.. most if not all the units ive seen either has a red tint or a more warmer color tone at a certain part of the screen. People have accepted this as a norm.

Yeah funny it is a norm for Note series when it is not for S series when both using same display technology
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app

Agree. My old s5 was much better with colour shift and tinting. As are the new tab s tablets. I'm disappointed with the note 4 screen.

Have you tried setting the display to photo mode?
I am still wondering if we talk about the same phone, my Note 4 has no red tint and no color shift at all, no matter how much I turn the phone.
Also looking at a totally white/red/yellow picture, I can't find any part of the screen that is warmer. Some people also reported that greys look terrible, I can't comfirm that for my display.
Coming from the Nexus 5, this display looks so much better in all aspects, I am still stunned after using the phone for 3 days now.

There seems to be quite a disparity between phones. Some are good, some are bad. That tends to be why people are having different experiences.

It was the norm for the S series up until the S4 came out. The S4 was the first Samsung screen since the Note 2 that had a very nice and even screen.
S1, S2, S3, Note 1, Note 3 all suffer from poor screen uniformity. Guess you can add the Note 4 to that too.
This worries me as I'm planning on skipping the Note 4 for the Nexus 6. Samsung will already be giving Motorola last years Amoled tech, and stretched across the bigger screen the unevenness will be even more obvious.
Especially now that Android Lollipop will be mostly light grey everywhere! Amoled's worst nightmare.

red tint?
What red tint, is this when the screen is on? off? I haven't noticed any red tint but now I'm worried...

Wow, if you do not notice it - do not find a reason to notice it. Be happy with your device.

My display is a very slightly more blueish/pinkish towards the top half, specifically the top right. It's only noticeable on white content. It's subtle enough that I won't go through the hassle of getting a replacement especially since the replacement could be even worse... At least my display has been brightness and no banding or anything. Overall though, this display is simply phenomenal. Hopefully these slight display issues will improve as time goes on, although the screen on my S4 was very uniform, doesn't even come close to the performance of the Note 4 screen though.

Seems like the problems are much less pronounced that the typical uneven backlight of LCD?

The 57 second video is scrolling with the OP5. Notice how it refreshes bottom-to-top, opposite of how it should be refreshing.

Oh no... I was hoping for a software fault but that... [emoji47]

If you watch some disassembly videos you will see that the screen on the OP5 sits upside down comparing to OP3 and other manufacturers.

Between all the statement and confirmations I am still not sure what to do I have 4 days left to send it back. I am still love this phone for all other part but the jelly one is just annoying and we still don't know if this is fixable in any way. In one way OnePlus says it's natural and normal and in the other way we hear from the support that they "work" on it !. It is getting me more and more on my nerves.

There is a possibility of fixing it i.e if Oneplus decides to ask Samsung for a different fw for the displays, unlikely it's going to happen though.

I've posted a thread of the OP5 and OP3 with a photo taken through polarised sunglasses where the 5 has all the whites separated into colours and the 3 does not (nor has any other amoled I've owned)
Also, the comparison you show is excellent. There's something up with this phone and I am certain to return it (mainly as I can't look at it wearing sunglasses!)

What's annoying for me is that I haven't received the phone cause I love in Trinidad and I'm getting the phone next two weeks

I don't understand this issue. Whether you refresh from top to bottom or bottom to top, depending upon which direction you are scrolling to, you will see a slight repaint of the screen as the text from previous paint faints. What's the problem? The slowmo videos from OP show the same effect for Samsung galaxy phone. So, all phones will show this depending on which direction you scroll (as long as its the opposite of the repaint direction). Are you telling me that you only scroll in one direction on your phones?
Has anyone tried speeding up/slowing down animations (in developer options) to see if this effect is reduced/increased?

Our phones are designed in a way that most of the scroll is done from top to bottom because informations are listed from top to bottom. So yes, it will be a lot more noticeable with a refresh from bottom to top than with one from top to bottom.
It could also be linked to the fact that our brain are used to devices refreshing from top to bottom.

Maybe it is just me but what does the placement of a screen has to do with this.
If I use a iPad etc I use it in all ways upside down on the side and I never notice it . Having that said if I use my phone upside down it should work normal?
I also have a oneplus 5 and I come from a oneplus 3 and I never notice a thing what is mentioned here. If the problem was that obvious don't you think everybody would complain and the media would burn oneplus ?
Also asked my wife and she owns a s7 edge and does not feel or see any difference.

I'm not sure how you think they haven't been burned. Tens of thousands of people have read and seen the issue on here, Reddit, and OnePlus forums. I pretty much guarantee your device has it. You're just not sensitive to the issue.

And how sensitive do you have to be to notice this so called bug.
What do I have to do to notice the yelly bug.
I find this one of the weirdest comments ever assuming I have it to but I am not sensitive enough.
And how many are tens of thousands I read a lot on XDA and a bit on the oneplus forum.
And I see a lot of the same users posting messages about this.
But anyway luckily I am not as sensitive as you and no I do not feel offended more blessed haha

Few minutes before seeing the videos in this thread I was already thinking about the fact that it is probably an issue with screen scanning and the fact that, because of the extra code in the driver, some sort of inverted screen scanning (similar to what you have in CRT displays) is happening.
On another note, I noticed the same effect with my Sony Z5 compact when rotating the screen 180 degrees and it's not that bad. I actually like the effect! If gives the interface a funny extra animation.
Just my two cents...
