You can't scan people anymore.
Why did they remove that? Damnit!
Can you elaborate? I don't really like this phone that much and 3D scanner is the only reason I want to get it, to scan things and then print on my 3D printer. If the scanner doesn't work, then I'm not buying it ever. How does it even know what are you scanning?
I think it's only Note 10+ feature. I just downloaded it from Galaxy Store normally, and it is working fine

Who TF buys a phone just for 3d scanning? Buy a special camera for this then, not a smartphone
The 3d scanner is working fine for objects. However, I don't think the quality is anywhere near good enough to print. Unless you're doing it for the gimmick.
But I can no longer select between Person and Thing. The directions telling you how at the app launch have changed to omit that too. When you try to scan a person now, it has you get too close. Then, as soon as you press the start button, it errors out and says try again. I reckon it uses ai to know what you're scanning. It has to know something to be able to animate your scan.

I'm strictly Note user, since I use s-pen all the time, my daughter needs phone for school, so my idea was to buy Note10+ for myself and give my Note8 to my daughter. No phone jack, no heart monitor, hole etc made me dislike new Note10+ and 3D scanner was the only reason I would get it. But you may be right, maybe I get Note9 instead and dedicated 3d scanner later and hope Samsung comes back with better Note11 in the future.

Open camera, tap on bixby vision on the upper left. On the bottom select apps. There it is.

Yeah, you don't understand. The first couple days, once you opened the scanner, you could select either that you were going to scan a person or a thing. They removed the options. You can now only scan things. If you try to scan a person, it will fail.

I found scanning anything just doesn't end up looking right. Also, unless you're propping things on a stick, you won't be able to get a full 3d scan. I didn't get the phone specifically for this reason but I feel that it was a feature that's half baked and still in Alpha.

Very nice improvement over my EVO 4G.
The only negative is the fact I have to deal with the forced password from my IT policy again since I don't see any work arounds yet.
There is a reason for the forced password from your IT department if you want their exchange network to be open on your phone. Getting around it is just undermining the security your IT guys are trying to provide for their network.
Would you happen to have a cable to test HDMI mirroring?
How is the call quality?
after all the noise made over in Sprint forums ...lol...you got yours before me
So you like it pretty well so far? Got a nexus s and plan to swap for the 3d before my 30 days is up (signed up to get the port credit just in case they didnt extend it again, which i just looked and they did...)
Hopefully I wont have a problem with getting one in the next 3 weeks.

Call quality seems fine. I don't use the phone much but I just called my dad and he said I sounded fine. He was in the bathroom taking a dump so a little bit of an echo on his end......for obvious reasons.

So far I really like it. Coming from the EVO 4G it isn't a 'huge' change so a lot of things are normal. It isn't like coming from a Blackberry. Love the sense 3.0.
Screen is really nice. Side by side with the EVO 4G you can really see the improvement. I'm not a big fan of the 3D because it messes with my eyes. It is cool...but not worth the headache for me.
Because of the higher resolution screen, the keyboard I normaly use (SmartKeyboard Pro) is stretched a little in landscaping and seems a little too small in portrait. I'll have to try a bunch of other ones. I wasn't too thrilled with the stock keyboard at first but I'll give it a few days.

There is nothing that is harmful to the company in my email or on my phone. Plus I run Lookout on my phone. If it goes missing, I log on and lock the phone. If I can't find it I do a remote wipe. My phone is by my side 24/7 so I know when it is missing within minutes.
The password just ruins the Sense experience. No point of having shortcuts on the lock screen when you have to type in a password.

I've been running a Sense 3.0 ROM on my EVO for weeks, and I have a passcode -- I would even if my employer didn't require it. The lockscreen is still extremely useful with a passcode. Sure, it's not immediate access, but it still decreases the amount of navigation to get to common tasks.

Call quality was good enough for me. I have never expected crystal clear calling from a cell phone. I think that expectation was set back in the days of older networks and crap phones. I can hear who I was talking to, there was no distortion, and nobody was complaining about how I sounded.
I will set it up on my Ford Sync system in my car today and test it then too.
Loving mine so far. 3D pics are uber cool, the 3D Video equally cool, can't wait to hook it up to the TV.
Only complaint - No flashlight app. Haven't tried any market ones yet though.

Anybody having trouble using Quick Deposit with the 3vo? First off, I can only use the Chase camera button since the Chase app freezes up when I try to use the dedicated 3vo button. Secondly, I'm having a hell of a time taking a clear pic of the back of the check. The front of the check comes out fine.
Has anybody else tried it?
I had issues with it on the Evo4g, meaning i could take a photo, but it would not deposit. The same with my 3vo, will take a pic, but will not deposit.
Seems like the Chase app doesn't optimize the stock camera because the pictures come out a lot different. When I just use the camera, the pictures come out fine.

camera button works for me, but back of the check is ALWAYS blurry for me too. it just doesn't seem to have enough to focus on or something.
Hmmm that's odd. I use the quick deposit quite regularly without much of a hitch yet. Though I do end up retaking the photos from time to time. I have heard there is a lot of variation in camera quality in the 3vo, maybe you should take yours in?

Yea, I'm considering it. My data speeds are pretty crappy on top of the camera problems.
i think the type of check makes a difference. I have deposited personal checks no problem, but payroll checks have a problem. Seems to be when the dollar amount field is different in some way...
For example, in my payroll checks the amount shows as **[amount]** and I think the asterisks are throwing it off...

That makes sense. The check I tried to deposit yesterday was a bigger size rebate check. I'll try a personal check and report back.
Answers to all these questions-
Asterisks does throw it off; hence why your having problems. Personal checks are fine.
For the blurry- Tap the screen on different locations...the camera will try and focus on the spot you tapped on. This might help the issue a bit.
For the non-deposits- If you have more than 5 over drafts or late payments on whatever in a month that feature is removed off of your account at Chase's discretion. I called Chase and that's what they told me as in why I couldn't use the quick deposit feature.
As for hardware issues......I don't know what to say, lol.

Interesting. Thanks for the tip.
Yeah the non-focusing issue happened to me last week. What I had to do was manually move the camera further back from the check so that when it did take the picture, it's focused. I don't remember how far away it was, but I think it was a good 3-4 feet. The back side image didn't match the front side image size, but it went through anyway.

I am looking to be able to access the cameras on my phones from another android phone or computer. Lets say one gets stolen (I have 3, an evo 4g, an evo 3d, and and epic 4g) I want to be able not to only track them but also access them from another device or computer and see what the people are doing on it or at least be able to access the front and rear cameras with out their knowledge and be able to snap pics from the camera. Not sure if that makes much sense it does in my head and I would really like to know how. I am sure it can be done over wifi or tethered but I won't be either of those. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Look up app called "android lost". It once u activate it from web site it will ask user of stolen phone to enter a passcode. Every time they do it takes a picture of them. I believe it also takes pictures every few minutes and gives u GPS, address location, and let u turn on microphone and view outgoing and incoming calls and texts. Bad ass program. And the best part of it all its free
Use the app "webkey" you can do everything you want to your phone from a computer

I think the app "gotcha" has similar features... you can also use it for surveillance if you suspect that someone is using your phone when you are not looking.
Androidlost is pretty awesome. You access its functions from a web browser, and you can have it use both the front facing and back cameras to take pictures. That being said, it would be nice if there was a dedicated app that did this. Real-time video would be an awesome addition too. It'll be like your lil'personal security camera.

Could u imagine putting this on ur kids phones or ur spouses phone. I'm sure people take advantage of it that way
As mentioned previously there are already several apps that do this. Obviously it isn't always going to be tractable, because the phone has to be on, have GPS signal (or at very least a connection to three towers) to get a small enough radius of its position. It would need either wifi or a 3G connection. Realistically for live video it will need a good, stable 4g connection (unless you are satisfied with a low resolution, low frame rate video feed). It needs to also use as little resources as possible, and be somewhat hidden so it doesn't make someone suspicious or find it to turn it off, or kill the task or service.
It is a great tool to have if your phone is stolen for sure. I'm not sure that it would be really useful though in the event that your phone is stolen, not lost. I don't know about other people but I am thinking if my phone was stolen the first thing I would do is have my account suspended. I would be worried because people can use your phone bill to buy things, and call some phone whores at 800 an hour.
I am pretty sure I read one of those apps have the ability to format your data so it isn't stolen too. The other function I might want to count on, is the ability for the app to lock the phone down. Make it impossible to unlock the device, at all, or maybe with a password. Of course the last important feature would be to have all this start even after reboot and battery pull.
I can imagine this being used maliciously by some people. Anyway, that is my two cents on the matter.
I remember seeing something with somewhat the same function. When lost, you go to the website, lock it, it shows gps location, and takes a pic using front camera if possible. Don't remember the app right now...

I've had it running since yesterday and very often when I try to unlock the phone it'll try to use the camera but all i get is a black screen then it reverts to the alternate pass code.. this'll happen maybe... every third time? i suppose it may have to do with the camera process running in the background...
anyone else sharing my pain?

Too bad there isn't a way to combine security features, for example, have face unlock plus PIN or pattern. Might get annoying in practical use though.

I go to the gym quite often... ok ok ok.... so maybe like 1 week out of the month. BUT!!!! I keep losing my damn barcode scanner because im reckless when it comes to my keys so it always gets ripped of my real key ring. I downloaded key ring (app) from the market thinking it would help.
1. My old HTC HERO, HTC THUNDERBOLT never worked with it
2. Thought my phones had a terrible screen so it probably was the reason
3. Probably was getting the wrong code even though it looked the exact same
I'm now asking all my wonderful xda family and HTC Evo 4G LTE users.
WHAT IN THE WORLD WORKS?
Any thought's? Thanks in advance guys!
Didn't work on og EVO either. I was wondering if it works on el tevo, thanks for answering that.
Are u useing a screen protector? I thought that might of been the reason it didn't work for me, just haven't gotten around to test
I have NEVER found a place that could scan a barcode off the screen of Keyring. The Starbucks stores can scan the screen from their app but Starbucks uses a high resolution scanner. (so does Costco). Your problem is most likely the scanner, not your phone.
You do realize the person behind the counter can type in the numbers saved on your phone by keyring and it works
Haha yes the app mentions that. But I just hate having to carry all this stuff around. Makes my keyring girly I think haha thanks though guys and no screen protector on my phone
It is their scanners fault. Not many places have hd scanners. Remember though, you need to have your screen brightness up too.
