[LG V20 Questions & Answers] planetbeen:
Glad to know it's not some random feature removed by one of the providers! You never know these days!

Pretty sure you can drag and drop up there too for the apps. People have also managed some shortcuts and different fancy things up there with widgets on the V10. Can't remember how off the top of my head. And I'm driving so I can't look it up LOL
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jeep447:
I honestly don't know whether or not the F800 has an ir blaster but I don't see why it wouldn't considering all of the other variations do, but if you do have one when you're looking at the phone face on it should be on the top right side of the phone. It'll be about an inch to the right of where the earpiece speaker is (or if you enabled battery percentage to show then it should be on the top of the phone directly above it), and there are should be a microphone on the opposite side roughly in the same spot as the ir blaster except towards the left of the earpiece speaker.

The only downside to the ir blaster on the V20 is that apparently LG refuses to use the standard protocol for their ir blasters, so that means most of the universal ir control apps won't work with it and the only ones I've found so far that it will work with are basically spotty at best. I guess it's kind of a tradeoff though because it can also record functions directly from another remote control which is a nice feature to have, and LG's quick remote app isn't too bad imo except for the fact that it doesn't give you any widget options and it doesn't cover nearly as many devices as most universal ir apps do.

Anyway that's just my opinion though and hopefully you're able to find it [emoji106]

The banner screen is a main reason I get V10/V20.

Removable battery is a plus as I have two options to carry extra power.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxrichievxxx:
Hi everyone!

I was using Resurrection Remix ROM on my 6P, no custom kernel and TWRP 3.0.2-2 installed. I installed the ROM by going back to stock, reflashing the recovery, and installing ROM + GAPPS - I like my ROM installs squeaky clean, never had an issue. I set up my phone and moved in completley. I went on with my day until around 11 last night where I was rebooting into recovery to do a TWRP backup the phone just never booted. I rebooted bootloader and tried again but I kept getting the Google logo and the device rebooting. Then again Google logo and reboot. Never showed the TWRP splash screen.

I then went ahead and tried returning the phone back to stock. I downloaded the firmware from Google (latest Nougat), put the phone in bootloader, and began the installation (using flash-all from the zip file). Everything seemed like it installed fine (no errors) and the phone reboots. Same issue, Google logo and a reboot. I tried going into the stock recovery, but no dice - Google logo, reboot. I reflashed TWRP to see if maybe that'll work but it didn't (Google logo, Reboot, rinse and repeat).

I relocked the bootloader and for a split second I saw the "Erasing" with the colourful hoops then a reboot to the Google logo - never booting into the fresh install.

Fastboot responds and detects my phone, I have opened the phone and the power button isn't stuck, I have tried going back to MM stock (installs but no boot).

Is there anything else I can do before going out and buying a new phone?

Thank you!

It's been an ongoing thing with the 6P's and 5X devices. Here's a thread that might be able to help you. I myself fell victim to this and nothing i did brought it back to life. Wound up doing an RMA with Huawei..

THANK YOU for shining some light on this issue! Looks like my phone is under warranty till 05/2017. But my next question is would the warranty be voided because I opened up the phone to make sure the power button wasn't the cause of the issue? :| I hope not!

Thanks again! :)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
Absolutely, yes. Your warranty is void. That's always going to be the case on just about any electronic product. The only exceptions I know of are upgrading the hard drive in your PlayStation or Xbox, since you don't actually have to dismantle the entire system. They make the hard drives easily accessible without having to open anything else. As far as phones go, opening them will always void the warranty. They can tell as well, so you can't get a warranty replacement. Hopefully those links provided can help solve your issue so you don't need to pay out of pocket for a new phone. Good luck.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiftr182:
I had this problem when nougat previews first started. This is what worked to get me back up. I guess it erases the efs partitions and forces the phone to rebuild them. I tried fastboot flashing stock, etc, nothing worked, then I ran these two commands and it booted right up.

adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/soc.0/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/modemst1 bs=16384

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jozomali:
I had a very similar problem. In the end, I used WugFresh's Nexus root toolkit to flash stock Nougat, with 'current status' set to 'soft-bricked'. That worked fine, and I'm back to normal...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wonderdroid87:
I'm a try but not work
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxrichievxxx:
I spoke with Huawei and as soon as I told them about the issue they right away were going to give me an RMA. I told them that the phone received an update from "google" and when I restarted the phone, the phone started to bootloop and never booting back to the home screen. But before we proceeded with the RMA I had to tell them the bad news - that my phone was opened because I was suggested to check if the power button wasn't the cause. She said that that voided the warranty and that my phone wont be covered for any repairs. I asked if I can pay them to fix it and they said no.

All in all I have a very pretty paperweight sitting, waiting to see if someone can come up with a fix. For now I'm using a Blackberry Passport with my android apps installed.

If not I'll either be moving to a OnePlus 3 or OnePlus 3T.

P.S. the toolkit "Soft-brick" option did not work for me either.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] refi64:
I am not responsible for exploding devices!! Nothing should go wrong, as this doesn't touch anything super-sensitive, but just in case...

Tested on Pure Nexus w/ Pure Nexus dynamic gapps. This should also work with Open GApps. (And I guess Fake Nexus, though I think the camera works well out-of-the-box on that one...?)

On (most?) current Nexus 5 Nougat ROMs, attempting to take a photo via Google Camera with HDR+ will just take a regular photo. (The included stock camera doesn't even have an HDR+ option!) The "fix" is to downgrade to an older version (2.8) of Google Camera.

Problem is, that's kind of annoying. In addition, the Play Store will keep trying to update it to the newest version unless you re-sign. Not good!

So I made a flashable zip! Just pop it onto your SD card, flash in TWRP, and the proper Google Camera will be installed, signed with a custom key to prevent the Play Store from updating it.

Enjoy! ;)

NOTE: This does not fix the video recording issues, only the HDR+ not working. You still need to use stock camera for videos.

Changelog

11/30/2016 - Fix an extraction failure when the path to the zip has spaces, and fix the progress bar.

Tried to install on aosp 7.1 ROM...and I want to add one more thing that Im not able to find google camera in play store on this ROM.

Thanks for the apk in the zip...I was able to install it manually.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aslam_:
is this google camera version 4.2?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] refi64:
True. At the same time, a [WORKAROUND] tag isn't allowed, so that's why I used [FIX].
[Nexus 5 Android Development] refi64:
Sorry about that! I just updated the zip file again. I had made a mistake with regards to the way it was signed.

It should work now. If it doesn't, could you hit Copy Log inside the Advanced section of TWRP and then upload

/sdcard/recovery.log

here?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] refi64:
No, it's 2.8. 4.2's HDR+ doesn't work on the Nexus 5 Nougat ROMs.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mairo:
I uninstalled v4 . then flashed 3.2 and unchecked google camera automatic update from playstore ( right up corner) . why to downgrade to v2.8 if v3.2 also work?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] refi64:
Huh...on my device, 3.2 HDR+ still didn't work.

Also, for me, I already have auto-update off, but I usually just like to click "UPDATE ALL" without the camera updating, too.

ROM issue maybe. Im currently using Fake Nexus ROM and 3.2 HDR worked fine.

What if you try clearing data + cache for Google Camera? There shouldn't be a need to, but it's worth a shot.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] focus-pocus:
I replaced your apk with 3.2.045 version. Everything works, including HDR and video (I'm using CM14.1 CAF nightly). Thanks for creating a script. Finally, no need to avoid updates in Google Play. BTW, what is the reason HDR doesn't work in Google Play version (currently 4.2.022)?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gobonja:
Can you provide link for your flashable zip?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] focus-pocus:
Well, all I did was just: 1) download apk for v3.2.045 from apkmirror, rename it to GoogleCamera.apk; 2) unpack this thread author's zip and replace GoogleCamera.apk with apk from step 1; 3) zip everything back (make sure folder structure look exactly the same). I'll upload it somewhere, when I get home.

For some reason, HDR didn't work initially with my friend's Nexus 5 using my zip (just blank screen). So he had to root uninstall it, then he installed apk using normal way, and only then flashed my zip. After that everything worked.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gobonja:
I resigned 3.2.045 apk so it's not showing in play store.

It can be installed without flashing in twrp.

Even better.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] colida:
Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately didn't work.

I uninstalled it and managed to install it again, but when taking a picture with HDR+ Mode, the screen is grey.

At least the force close is gone :)

Does anyone know what's causing this in the first place and if it's fixable by cm devs? It would be lovely to have an updated Google camera with auto hdr+ working.

You can use GCamera until 3.2.x version and everything should work right (video and HDR+).

[MENTION=5569318]refi64[/MENTION]

You need to deflate the libraries in the APK so Nougat can read them in /system/app.

Here's the process:

https://github.com/osm0sis/gappsintegrator/blob/master/000gappsintegrator#L241-L246

Tested and working with the quoted linked re-signed 3.2.x APK on CM14.1 (once the libs were deflated). :good:

What about Google Camera 4.2? is yet not hdr working?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] murdoc47:
Hi. Google Camera 3.2 HDR is working, but the video is shaking. 4.2 doesn't even support HDR on Nexus 5. GC 2.7.008 (or 2.7.010, but cannot install it for some reason) is the best option to go with.

So if anybody can re-sign to not update, or fix 2.7.010, that would be nice.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] osm0sis:
Video seems fine here with 3.2, which is also the last version the Play Store served to the N5.

Since the OP seems MIA, here's my deflated libs version of gcam3 re-signed to not update, at least until Open GApps and I figure out if there's a better way to limit this and build it in. :good:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] osm0sis:
Nah.. I'm happy with my 3.2.. maybe you need to install GApps over Pure Nexus to make sure you've got the right libraries otherwise, and you should only have one camera app installed to system at a time.

Maybe try one of the newer GCam ports. Obviously they'll work better on newer Android OS versions and newer GApps. Arnova's latest 1.4 might work, who knows.

Edit: Also make sure you uninstall any GCam updates and clearing GCam app data/cache from your device before flashing my zip since I don't believe I recall the zip being able to do that. That might explain what you're seeing.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] osm0sis:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think Oreo is more finicky with system app signatures changing all of a sudden. Probably not much to be done.

Edit: Last idea, if the above is the issue then it would probably work fine if installed directly after GApps as part of a factory reset and clean ROM flash, (which is I believe how I originally intended it).
