Camera Switch N5/S8 (read below for details)

Bixby Vison

Most bothering part of N7 was S8 camera. As earlier I have stated, I am not in favor of porting stuff related to hardware and that's why earlier on all port I haven't include camera port. This time It was made optional just to test Bixby Vision. Though no much complaints or bug reported on S8 camera after N7 release.

Anyway on

N8 - No more S8 Camera required for Bixby Vision and there will be a pre-activated option for Bixby Vision

. Though there were no major bug reported on S8 camera so I have keep that option intact in case anyone wanted S8 camera but don't expect much enhancement on it except I find some valid reason.

Secure Folder

You might knowing about Secure folder which is available on demand on S7 devices and Pre Installed on S8 devices

This is a better and secured and advanced version then Private Mode

You can copy/move sensitive data to secure folder

You can make an extra copy of supported apps. Like you want to make two profile in single app then you can have one in secure and one app drawer.

For example, If you select Email app in secure folder, then you can add different email account on both. Same should happen to other apps like WhatsApp (Have not tried)

Who want to use AOD, You need to flash AOD supported custom Kernel (You mat get link from ChangeLog N10 post). Flashing custom kernel will break Bluetooth and wifi password.To fix BT and Wifi use latest wifi fix 1.2 from ROM Tool - Update and Fix
