Lol, you know how important those are to me.

I use various excercise apps, need dropbox, I’d miss my falcon twitter app. I did a lot of customization (besides romming, flashing kernals) to fonts, the soft keys, colors in the status bars, icons, etc.

Charge your phone fully in seconds… with lightning, lol;

I also need to get this auto refocus thing figured out you will probably have to manually flip them to 1080

However after comparing these videos/pics to other peoples from the same event mine turned out better so :tup:

Looks like they’re more out of focus than anything. In dark settings you really need to lock the focus.

Here is a random one from YouTube with similar lighting to compare to. There is no settings detail in the description, but you can tell how clear it is:

They all use some special sound processing. There is a phone comparison video where they take an iPhone, Galaxy, etc. onto a helicopter and compare the sound quality and noise canceling.

And yeah;

That’s awesome, they’re really doing what people want. Long battery life and a DSLR(like) camera in a phone. I’d be strongly considering the 1020 if it was on VZW.

I’m pretty sure the one dude on Hawaii 5-0 has a Lumia 1020.

I’m pretty sure at least one of the phones announced was for Verizon. And the tablet it definitely Verizon:

I didn’t watch it, but the title of the above video mentions a new Lumia 1520.

VZW isn’t carrying the latest and greatest Lumia 1020 with the 41MP camera though. So the assumption is they won’t carry the 1520 either.

The Verge confirms, [AT&T is the exclusive carrier for Nokia's Lumia 1520, will also sell Lumia 2520 tablet - The Verge](http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/22/4865368/att-to-carry-nokia-lumia-1520-and-2520)
