I have noticed that after the latest update the Face unlock doesn’t work so well.
It works fine in nicely bright areas but not so well in rooms which are not so bright.
Anyone else having this problem?

Hey guys well i purchased a gnex back on launch day and it worked almost flawlessly, except sometimes anyways i work outisde and the auto brightness worked pefectly and my charging port went bad so verizon sent me a new one. and well this new ones auto brightness works terribly if at all when outside. Is there anything i can do to help or fix this, i know it doesnt work this poorly because like i said my original worked perfectly and even my fascinate worked perfectly. So any help or tips would be appreciated.
if you're still running 4.0.2 of the stock firmware, auto-brightness is improved with the 4.0.4 update
yes im stock and dont ever plan on rooting/romin my gnex did a bunch of that with my fascinate but dont feel the need to with gnex ics is so nice the way it is. But can anyone else confirm the auto brightness better in 4.0.4. But really thats kinda irrelevant because like i said it worked perfectly on my original gnex and this 1 is POS.
If it's faulty then I would get another replacement.

I suggest u get the lux auto brightness app from the android market....I have been using it since I got my nexus and it works flawlessly ...you can also customize the auto brightness level and sensitivity to your liking
This is one advantage of rooting. Rooting isn't about flashing roms. Its about having admin rights to the OS so you could tweak the auto brightness values to your exact desired levels.
You shouldn't have to root in order to upgrade to 4.0.4 ... Verizon started pushing this version to phones in the beginning of May. Check for new updates in your settings.

Hi, I am using eugene373's newest PLANE JANE ICS ROM, the whole system seems to me is perfect, except the one issue about the touch keys backlight. Sometimes those four keys do not light up even I already unlock the screen, may have to wait for 15-30 seconds, then the backlight comes up. But sometime it works good. So I am just wondering is there any other this ROM users have same problem about this?
Its a little bug, everyone's got it. It'll probably be fixed soon.

Thanks for telling me that. I already had flashed the rom more than five times!! I thought that only because I installed something affect the lights.
PlainJane
Installed Rom.Everything seemed to work fine.But i could not get Talkatone working that what i use mostly.
Anyone else having this issue?
So I have a couple different issues.
1. When in less then perfectly lit areas I can take a pic even with the flash on and every pic comes out darker then what it should. Anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this or has anyone else ran across this?
2. The flash seems to go off waaaaay more then needed. In near perfect light with the flash set to auto. Anyone have issues like this as well? Any fixes?

On this particular Rom, has anyone had any issues with proximity sensor not recognizing the phone to your ear, therefore pressing buttons with your face instead of shutting off? I don't use phone for calls often, but seems every call I've taken I've run across that issue. Thanks!
I am on the latest MMuzzy Toro plus 4.2 and haven't noticed anything like this so far. I don't do a lot of calling but when I take a call it seems to work normally.
I'm running the 11/21 build and have no issue. I have made a few calls and no problems.
OP may try a fresh flash
Thanks I'll try fresh flash see what happens. Just wanted to see if anyone else had similar issues.

I've problems with the Proximity sensor too.
Ok.. I am noob. But here is what I've.
I got the new 4.2 takju image from google and followed a very good thread here about how to install it and it worked perfectly. The only thing that is not working is Proximity sensor during Skype calls and Google Talk calls. I really can't understand this but this is the problem I've.
I flashed it twice with takju and it didn't work and installed yajku too and still not working. I am noticing minimal amount of reports about this but over the internet. But no solutions yet.
Hope someone would help us
I have been on his ROM from the day 4.2 dropped and it has been great. Few problems (googles not mmuzy's)but they have been fixed berry quickly

Yes, please check out my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006783
Fresh install, factory resets, the works. Still have the problem. Proximity sensor turns the screen off but the dial pad or even the end call button are active and are pressed by my cheek. It pretty much kills 4.2 for me and I am just about to go back to 4.1.2.
EDIT: Just to clarify, I am running completely stock 4.2 tajku
Just an FYI, appears to be a PGM issue in relation to 4.2. Even checked the PGM app thread and author released an update for the paid version, with the free version being updated soon.
Shot in the dark I guess but since I got this device, Snapchat has been terribly laggy and almost unusable. Specifically when using the keyboard for text. Sometimes when I launch it, the camera is just black for roughly 5 seconds and then the back camera comes on finally. The chat feature is very slow at times and the entire app seems to stall and crash at least once a day. Anyone else notice this?
A quick google search yielded several recent topics on various forums complaining about the same thing, all on 6.0 Marshmallow. Hopefully it's not just this device.
I'm getting this exact thing
I went through that too. Once I had to restart it to make the camera work again. My tip is do not try use volume keys until it load completely. It just frozen the app in a black screen. Isn't perfect but can be used.
It's probably not optimized as well for 6.0 yet
Snapchat hasn't been perfect for me, but I've never experienced any of those issues. The worst I get is a little delay when pressing the home button.

I have had this problem we will have to wait for an update!! Basically that's what I've been telling myself lately about marshmallow

I can tell you guys I had this problem on my Nexus 6 on Marshmallow, it has to be something related to 6.0, I'm on a LG G4 now and snapchat runs just fine.
Kinda laggy for me too. And I can't get it to play a notification sound when I recieve snaps. I have turned it on in settings and I get a notification as normal, but no sound. Does anyone else have this problem?
Just uninstalled it from the n5x will have to limit myself to using it on n72013 it was unusable. Crashes camera failed to load then started to affect the stock camera app, would cause system crashes and could only be sorted with a reboot.
Same here its completely horrible to use of this phone. Phone ****s itself every time I try use it!

Our of curiosity...are you guys all encrypted?

Ok never mind then. I've been decrypted since I got the phone, until I took an OTA recently. It's been crap since then, but I guess it's unrelated

stock & encrypted and snapchat runs like poo for me. shame because its one of my most used apps :/
Well again Snapchat just updated, and now I'm back to it working fine again....

The past few updates have been good for me luckily.. Just don't try to send a snap while in landscape, I tried to add text and Swiftkey went all wonky and overlayed the screen even after I pressed Home, had to force close Snapchat and Swiftkey both :/
me too I have same issues the lag and so slowly for texting and even after update marshmallow update 6.0.1 the problem still the same I hope can anyone help me with issue what should to do and thanks you
So I am a power snapchat user and had this same problem and might have accidentally stumbled on a possible solution after having a login failure. I enabled the travel mode so it's not downloading constantly. I installed snapprefs and I can't explain why but it's flying now. No lag on window switching or opening the camera. I'm on 6.0.1 December rooted
Everytime I take video from Snapchat, it produces the sound "dug" at the first second of the video, never put my finger too hard on the phone so it isn't bcs of my finger knocking the screen, anybody know why?
