WP 8.1 camera and group tile issues

Hi all,
My ATT Lumia 920 was just updated to Windows Phone 8.1 (yay!!!)! Love Cyan but ever since the update I have been experiencing issues with tiles and my camera.
When I try to create tile groups by hovering one tile over another, the start screen only shifts the tiles away from each other instead of creating a new group.
Also, every time I launch my camera from ANY app it tries loading for a second or two and then immediately crashes without even making it to the viewfinder screen.
No matter how many times I restart or soft reset my phone, these problems persist. It's not a problem that comes and goes; I haven't been able to launch my camera or group tiles at any point since the update.
Here's what my extras+info screen says:
Lumia Cyan

Will I need to hard reset my phone? Since all of my photos are backed up to SkyDrive (or OneDrive or whatever it's called this week) I'm not concerned about losing that data from my phone. What I am wondering, though, is if a hard reset will make me lose all my text messages (even though text message backup is on) or if it will void any warranty that may be on my phone.
Any advice would be much appreciated! Thannks in advance.

Hi @AdamLumia920 ,
Before resorting to drastic measures, does the camera refuse to work in both Nokia Camera and the built-in Camera app?
Also double-check that the OneDrive still images and video are backed up in full resolution? This depends on the backup settings and the capabilities of the phone camera hardware. - It was a pleasant surprise for me that SMS and MMS are restored in WP8.1, also when not restoring a backup during the initial setup after a factory reset.
The grouping of tiles feature is planned for the next update (and currently in the Developer Preview phones).

Windows 7 DNS and Group Policy Issues

Hi,
We have several suites of Windows 7 domain connected PC's.
In one of the suites I have been called into look at 3 different PC's where the users have not got mapped drives, desktop backgrounds, internet connectivity - because their group policies have not applied.
When I look at the error logs I find DNS 1014 errors, and Group Policy 1054 errors.
I have looked at the logs on the switches, and there is nothing on them - Could a pupil pulling the network cable out cause these errors?... Possibly they could have put it back in before I got back in the room.
The user logs off of the PC and back on again and are fine, as are the users that logon after them.
We have 2 DC's/DNS servers, which I would have thought would be able to cope with the load here.
Please let me know what you think the likely cause could be.

Hello John555444,
What is your current situation?
Is this issue resolved?

Case Statement and Group By issues

Hi this is my initial query which works perfectly:
select ff.cla_case_no, Cost_before_Decision, Cost_Of_Claim, decline, Decline_Description from
fraud_nov_14_final ff
,(select cla_case_no, (sum(total_cost_adj_old) + sum(decline_estimate)) Cost_before_Decision
from reporting.ci_final@test
group by cla_case_no) z
where ff.cla_case_no = z.cla_case_noI now want to add in a condition based on a column called decline:
select ff.cla_case_no, Cost_before_Decision, Cost_Of_Claim, ff.decline, Decline_Description from
fraud_nov_14_final ff
,(select cla_case_no, (case when decline = 1 or decline = 2 THEN (sum(total_cost_adj_old) + sum(decline_estimate)) ELSE Total_Cost END) Cost_before_Decision
from reporting.ci_final@test
group by cla_case_no) z
where ff.cla_case_no = z.cla_case_noThe error message I receive is :
ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
00979. 00000 - "not a GROUP BY expression"
Thanks in advance for your help!!

You would need DECLINE in the group by clause of your inner query.
Additionally you would need to change TOTAL_COST to SUM(TOTAL_COST) in where case statement.
But then you would retrieve one row for each value of DECLINE in this query.
You also could use this:
(I don't know if it will meet your requirements)
SELECT ff.cla_case_no,
                 cost_before_decision,
                 cost_of_claim,
                 ff.decline,
                 decline_description
FROM fraud_nov_14_final ff,
                 (SELECT   cla_case_no,
                           SUM (decode(decline,1,total_cost_adj_old+decline_estimate,
                                               2,total_cost_adj_old+decline_estimate,
                                               total_cost)) cost_before_decision
                                FROM reporting.ci_final@test
                  GROUP BY cla_case_no) z
WHERE ff.cla_case_no = z.cla_case_no;(untested code, because I don't have your tables)

When I got a new iPhone5, I experienced short battery life, and system sofware issues were not the cause. The camera also takes a blury picture regardless of lighting and I have the black one. Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

What makes you so sure it isn't software?
The camera can be focused by take the point of focus on the touch screen.
If it is new as you said, it should be under warranty. Make a Genius Bar appointment or contact Apple with a repair request.

Lumia 1520 Camera and SD Issues

I love my Lumia 1520. I'm a heavy user of camera and video. Since the upgrade to 8.1 I have had persistent issues. I have reflashed my device twice and the problems remain.
1. The Nokia Camera app intermittently takes 2 - 4 mins to load. It says "loading" and does some processing. Sometimes it opens, sometimes it doesn't.
2. After the above behavior, Saving the photo takes 60 seconds or more. If I navigate away while the photo is being "saved" the photo is lost.
3. My original SD card, purchased with the phone at the AT&T store, is saying "Scan SD card and fix errors". Saying Yes to this seems to do nothing.
The above behavior is intermittent. For example just now while writing this, I tried the Microsoft Phone camera app and was able to take pictures successfully and without issue. I switched back to the Nokia Camera App, which I prefer, and the app functioned normally.
Yesterday I missed several important shots because the Nokia Camera App wouldn't load quickly (less than 30 seconds in this case) and the moment was long over when the camera was functional.
Appreciate the help! I love this phone!

Hi @UltraVioletIris ,
To troubleshoot this, purchase another SD memory card, a reputable brand from a reputable store. 32GB Kingston Class 10 SDHC cards have worked reliably for me through 3 years and on 4 different Nokia phones, others have other favorites.
Backup everything, to the cloud and/or via USB to a PC.
Menu -> Settings -> storage sense -> SD card -> remove, shut down the phone, remove the old SD card, insert the new SD card straight from the packaging into the phone, start up the phone. The new card must be recognized and ready for use in the phone right away, without error messages or scan for errors notices, otherwise go directly to the second step.
1: If the new SD card works without issues then the original SD card is defective.
2: If the intermittent errors persist then the phone need repair or replacement.
A competent store should acknowledge the warranty claim on either the SD card or the phone after this.
Please let us know how it goes?

Camera, sound, and general design issues

I bought an iPod Touch 3G about a year ago. Recently, I sold my 3g and bought a 4g. I am a professional web and interface designer and have been in the industry about 5 years.
With the iPod upgrade, I got camera functionality. Also, the recent iOS update added a new set of sound options. It appears that you can have the sound muted, but still get notification sounds from mail, facetime, and perhaps other applications as well; a good feature. The multitasking bar also now has a volume slider as well.
My Proposal (see below for details)
- Link the camera shutter sound to the regular iPod volume. Or have a setting to turn shutter on and off. Or add a “Ringer and Alert” option to disable shutter sound.
- Add a “mute all sounds” button in the multitask bar.
- Remove the sound slider in the multitask bar and replace it with a brightness bar.
The Camera
The camera seems to work great. Unfortunately, it isn’t the highest quality, which I heard was not due to cost, but because of size. Really Apple? Because 0.28 inches is just borderline “too thick?” But that is a whole other issue. The issue I am having is that the camera makes a really nasty (and often loud) shutter noise whenever I take photo, even when the sound is muted. Apple did add the “Ringer and Alerts” sound volume, which apparently also is linked to the camera shutter noise. So either I get audio mail alerts with shutter noise or I get no audio mail alerts with no shutter noise. The “Ringer and Alerts” section allows me to disable certain sounds (incoming mail, outgoing mail), but not the shutter sound. Shutter noises are annoying and there are plenty of circumstances where you do not want a shutter noise. And no, I am not talking about perverted circumstances. Say you are in a boring conference reading a magazine and want to send a photo of a page to a friend? Perhaps you are in a retail store doing some comparison-shopping online and are taking photos of bar codes? Maybe I have witnessed a crime and want to capture a photo of the fleeing perp. There is no reason that people within a 3-block radius need to know that you are taking a photo with my iPod Touch (…and yes, the last example was a bit over the top). Since mail alerts are very useful, I tend to leave them on even when the volume is muted. I typically leave my sound muted because often I may be using a sound application (games, youtube, etc) in a waiting room or other situation where there are people around. I like to be courteous to other people, so I leave my phone on vibrate and go to an unoccupied room (when possible) when receiving a phone call. So leaving my sound on is not a good option for me. However, in order to take a silent photo, I have to go into settings, go to sounds, and slide the “Change with Buttons” option to off. Then when I am done taking the photo, I have to slide it back. Very inconvenient and I have to remember to do it if I am taking a silent photo. Why not add a “Camera shutter” option to the list of sounds in the “Ringer and Alerts” section? Or maybe just bundle the camera shutter sound with the regular volume control of the iPod Touch. Or just add a setting to turn shutter sound on or off.
The Sound
Why is there no easy way to “mute all sounds,” especially with the new sound options of the iOS? This option should be added to the multitask bar. If you are going into a meeting and do not want audio alerts. When the meeting is over, simply go back to the multitask bar and unmute all sounds; simple to use, easy to add. Why did Apple add a volume control to the multitask bar? You can adjust the volume from any application by using the external buttons! Also, perhaps I just don’t understand the new functionality of the volume buttons, but how come you cannot adjust volume from within some applications (camera and others)? The buttons just don’t seem to do anything in those applications. Why in the world would you do that? Those sound buttons have a specific purpose that users are accustom to. No matter what application you are in, you can easily adjust the sound. If you have some feedback on the new functionality of the buttons, please let me know.
The Brightness
Sound and brightness are the two items I change the most. Sometimes I am using my iPod Touch in a dimly lit room, so I like to turn down the brightness. The auto brightness works, but not well in dimly lit rooms. Watching YouTube videos can sometimes be a bit cumbersome with the brightness. If the video is to bright or dark, you can to exit the YouTube app, go to settings, adjust the brightness, go back to YouTube and resume the video. The same goes for the Video application. Some games are brighter or darker than others, so adjusting the brightness after starting a game is a common circumstance. Why not replace the audio controls in the multitask bar with a brightness option. Audio is accessible (or at least should be) from any application thanks to the hardware buttons.

MAJOR Open Directory issue: Can't assign Users and Groups that DO exist!

Just noticed the following today:
When doing Get Info -> Permsissions on files/folders located on my File Server share, Owner and Group show as (unknown).
When I go into WGM -> Sharing, and look at files/folders on File Server share this way, the Owner and Group fields are blank.
When I attempt to (re)assign an Owner or Group by dragging them from Users and Groups section of WGM, error tells me User or Group no longer exists. These Users and Groups clearly do exist in WGM -> Accounts.
When I look at files on File Server share via CLI, instead of actual names for Users and Groups, I see their uid and gid's. Chowning via CLI fails as well.
I've noticed all Users and Groups with this issue are OD.
Server is xServe G4 DP 1.0 GNz/1 GB RAM/Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 Unlimited. This servers been running fine as an OD Master for months now. ACL's are enabled on this File Server share point. I've always had weird permissions issues, but NEVER the inability to assign OD Users and Groups to files/folders.
I'm at a loss here, not to mention my wits end.
Did my OD become corrupted?
Any and all help would greatly appreciated.
PowerMac G4 733 MHz Mac OS X (10.4.6) 512 MB RAM

When doing Get Info -> Permsissions on files/folders located on my File Server share, Owner and Group show as (unknown).
This means that the Finder can't find a match in the accounts/groups database for the numeric UID assigned to those files. Either the records associated to those accounts have been deleted, or the database is corrupt. In either case, you should restore a copy of it from backup.

User and Group Issue

Hello All,
I am facing a issue in assigning users to groups in shared services. Version 11.1.1.3
Actually users are present in LDAP and groups i created in Native Directory. Now i am writing Maxl .. Alter user ... add to group.... but its throwing a error that user doesnot exist, though the user exists in LDAP. I tried assigning users in groups manually, it worked. Can any one tell me how to do it through MAXL or any other way as i dont want to do it manually because there are 100s of user.
2) Can any one please tell me the use of Updateuser and provisioning user utility. In what scenario we use them?
Thanks,
Abhi

There is a way through Maxl an example being
create or replace user 'essuser' type external;
alter user 'essuser' add to group essgroup;
or
create or replace user 'essuser@LDAPNAME' type external;
alter user 'essuser@LDAPNAME' add to group essgroup;
Cheers

Why is my iPod Touch's memory 0 when i only have 249 mb of photos and camera and 23l mb of Music? Please help this is a big issue! what do i do? ps i dont want to loose 2 of my apps!!

I have a 8GB Ipod Touch and i know its not a lot, but in the beginning it was working fine. For some time now it wont let me excede even 1GB of memory. i have no games, no apps, not many contacts, hardly anything! only 249 mb of photos and camera and 23l mb of Music. i have backed it up and restarted it and everything and i am getting annoyed! please help me!! i cant live without my ipod!!! This is urgent!
P.S: i have 2 apps on my ipod that i would not like to loose! IF theres anyway to save them in the process of fixing my ipod that will be great!
Thank you!

An "other" that large usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files. Usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

Having issues viewing interactive parameters and group tree in Visual Studio 2013 design view.

Hey Guys,
I'm a web developer (front end and back end, kind of a one man army sort of deal) and my current employer wishes to use crystal reports to display the results of the online survey apps/tools I have been working on for the last few months. However, I have been having trouble getting the reports to render in browser, and a lot of the ui components of the browser based report viewer (the interactive parameters and group tree) will not render properly in the design view of visual studio (ive attached a screen cap of what I'm talking about) or in the browser itself.
I am new to crystal reports and its community and if I am leaving out any critical details or have posted in the incorrect section please inform me and I will make changes as necessary.
Additional info:
Visual studio version: 2013 professional (trial)
Plugin version (exe file name): CRforVS_13_0_9.exe (I also installed the 64 bit run-time from this)
Server and OS versions: IIS 7.5 on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2
Any help you guys could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
-Mike

Hi Mike
First thing you want to do is uninstall CRVS SP 9 and install CRVS SP 10. SP 10 is the first SP to support VS 2013.
Once that is done, let us know if that helped any.

Video group call issue with chat

when i'm on a one-on-one call with someone, i can use my video and chat with them just fine
but when they add me to group calls, i cant turn on my camera and i can't send typed messages in the chat window
i have the most recent version of skype, i've even uninstalled and reinstalled and it still wont work

If there are more than 10 persons in a chat, Video will be unavailable. This is aknown bug and will be fixed in the next incremental version of Skype.
For text, type /get name in the groupchat, if it returns #skypename your in an old p2p chat that your client might have issues with, if the return is 19: , your in a new cloudchat, and in theory all should be good.
Post 6.21 clients have issues with p2p chats, and pre have issues with cloud ones. I'm including the 6.21 installer link so you may downgrade if you find it necessary:

Partition Name in Select and Group-By

Is there a function that returns the partition name a row is stored in? I'd like to use it in a SELECT statement, if it exists.
The goal is to get row counts per partition to determine skew on a hash-based partition (otherwise, I'd just select and group-by the partition key). I want to do something like this:
SELECT PARTITION_NAME, COUNT(*) as PER_PART_COUNT
FROM SOMETABLE
GROUP BY PARTITION_NAME;Obviously, I would replace the string "*PARTITION_NAME*" with whatever function returns that value.
NOTE: Before the forum sharks jump all over me, I did search the documentation and forums, but I came up empty handed.

Hi,
This is hokey - but you can use the undocumented function "tbl$or$idx$part$num" like so:
SELECT   atp.partition_name
       , COUNT (*) AS count_rows
    FROM all_tab_partitions atp
       , (SELECT tbl$or$idx$part$num ("SCOTT"."TAB1"
                                    , 0
                                    , 1
                                    , 0
                                    , partition_col1 -- your 1st partition key column
                                    , partition_col2 -- your 2nd partition key column
                                     ) AS part_num
               , 'TAB1' AS table_name
               , 'SCOTT' AS owner
            FROM scott.tab1) pt
   WHERE atp.table_name = pt.table_name
     AND atp.table_owner = pt.owner
     AND atp.partition_position = pt.part_num
GROUP BY atp.partition_name;Note - this probably won't perform well at all... but it could be an option...

... On 2nd thought - don't do it - it seems it is pretty unstable - brought my session to a halt a couple of times... Forget I mentioned it :)
... On 3rd thought - if you add ROWNUM - it works fine - seems you need to materialize the result set in the inner query - like so:
CREATE TABLE part_tab (part_key int
                     , a int
partition by range (part_key)
(partition p1 values less than (100)
,partition p2 values less than (200)
,partition p3 values less than (maxvalue)
insert into part_tab
select rownum
     , rownum
FROM all_objects
where rownum <= 1000; SELECT atp.partition_name
     , COUNT(*) AS count_rows
FROM all_tab_partitions atp
   , (SELECT TBL$OR$IDX$PART$NUM("PART_TAB", 0, 1, 0, part_key) AS part_num
           , 'PART_TAB' AS table_name
           , user AS owner
           , ROWNUM AS rn -- Materialize the result set by adding ROWNUM...
      FROM part_tab) pt
WHERE atp.table_name = pt.table_name
AND atp.table_owner = pt.owner
AND atp.partition_position = pt.part_num
GROUP BY atp.partition_name;

Is there a way to switch off by default the video on FaceTime? I only ever use this app for audio/calls and hate the video being on. I especially hate that if I leave the app open to receive calls it means the camera and green light are on.

My issue is that I can't find a way to have the camera switched off when the app is open and so this means if I want the app open all day to receive calls then the camera is going to be on the whole time. Even if it didn't potentially drain the battery, or add to the CPU usage or whatever else may cause any problems whatsoever (wheel of death!), I just don't want the camera on as I don't see myself ever wanting to use the video call feature but I would use the audio/call multiple times throughout the day to make and receive calls. The camera being on when the app is open is enough to prevent me from using the app. Also ever since seeing that episode of criminal minds where if you saw the green light on above the screen then it meant the killer was watching you!
Basically I just can't believe there isn't a way to disable the camera whilst having the app running. I know when initiating an audio call the camera goes away, but I would like the camera away the whole time. To me it just would make sense that if you click the video option then the camera is on, and if you click the audio option then the camera goes off. It just seems waaaaay to basic a thought for apple to have missed... Let's face it, we're not all as pretty as the people in the apple adverts and don't want to see our ugly mugs staring back as us when we work all day at our macs!

I have exactly the same concern. It seems it would be a simple fix for Apple to allow users to turn off the camera (and even the mic) while keeping FaceTime open -- especially now that it turns out FaceTime must remain open in order to send and receive iPhone calls on a Mac.
I like to think this new functionality of FaceTime will be baked into a future release of Yosemite, as the current setup has that not-quite-finished feel of a work in progress. In the meantime, there's nothing like a little piece of Post-It stuck over the camera to keep the NSA from watching your face as you type a post to the Apple Support Communities.
