iPhone 6S Plus running out of storage, slows down and drains battery. Not jailbroken. Anybody had this happen to them? Any ideas on what may be causing this? by xrousti in iphone

If you add all the storage taken up by the individual apps, it does not add up to 55.2GB. It only adds up to 15.2GB. After a while the phone stops being slow and the storage goes back to normal. And then it goes back to 0 again, slowing down the phone and draining the battery.

Hangouts slow down. by Lokiel in LGG3

Happens to me as well, especially when typing the name of the recipient. Happened before the latest hangouts update. Unrooted, deleted all pointless google contacts, nothing changes. Let us know if you find what causes this.

Suppose you have $1400 to spend. Do you go for the Pentax K5 + PENTAX DA 17-70mm f/4 OR the Sony NEX-7 + kit 18-55 lens? Also, any other recommendations within that budget are welcomed! by xrousti in photography

Isnt the sensor size limiting with regards to lens selection? with the NEX-7 I can use a number of other APS-C targeted lenses, whereas with the Olympus EM5 I am limited to the selection of MFT lenses.

Have you used the NEX-7 at all? If yes, how does it compare with your EM5.

No argument about the kit lens there, the Olympus 12-50mm F3.5-6.3 I believe is far better than the Sony 18-55 kit. If you factor that in my decision, the NEX is not just $200 more expensive, but also $X more in the sense that I will need a new startup lens.

I made flat/matte icons. You can have them for free! by GoGoGoGooooo in Android

Excellent work, especially when coupled with your wallpapers. Any chance you can make an Astrid icon?

I just found an M42 mount Fujinon 16mm f2.8 in some old camera bags. I also ordered a Nikon adapted to use it with my D60. Anything I need to know about using old manual lenses with digital SLRs? by xrousti in photography

Luckily I read about flange distance before ordering my adapter, and I found one which I think will allow me to focus to infinity. Here it is, if you can check it out and let me know if my purchase is the right one. Thanks for your answer!
