We need controls/toggle button for selecting external microphone.

As of now even if we connect an external microphone, the application records audio from internal microphone.

Hi,

I don't know about you people but I find these Gcam mods pretty inaccurate with colours and contrast. I mean, in sunny daylight photos, quality is pretty good, but indoors or cloudy pics, colour saturation is right off, the same with contrast and light. I find Open Camera or A Better Camera a little better at handling this. I'm using miui 8 beta with Samsung sensor. Which mod version do you recommend that can handle colour and contrast correctly??

Thanks!

Hi, i try this urikills and hdr is very slow..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Themes, Apps, and Mods] uiuiuiui:
You are right, I was thinking the same. I think I the original BSG Gcam had too much red in the pictures and the Arnova Gcams were too blue-ish for me. Ideally the Gcam would be adjusted for our specific sensor.

Try cstark v3 (is very quick and rarely crashes, didn't test all newer ones) or the latest Urikill one. The colors are better with them. It's not perfect and I wish they would never crash, but IMO Gcam is still king with catching details and noise reduction.

BTW: The slow shutter in the Urikill Gcam works great in low light, no more pink noise in the darkness!

Tried multiple times with chrome cast(3 day old device, 128gb version)

connects all the time while mirroring

stays so for a couple of minutes while scrolling through the page gets hung...and the Chromecast loses connectivity completely from the network...then I have to restart the router to get things back online..

Happened every time I connected my one plus 5 .

No issues with galaxy A5 Samsung...and obviously Nexus 5x works like a charm using the same router...

one plus works well with casting YouTube and other apps..

issue is only with mirroring. ..

in Google home all while hitting cast (for mirroring ) it says

"Screen casting is not optimized for this device. Your experience may vary"

Is there a work around?

why is this beast of a phone (spec wise...and so far usage wise as well) not optimized for Chromecast?

So in short what I want is to backup and restore all my appdata / files from stock MIUI 8 Global build to Lineage OS. I have already got permission to unlock bootloader and I don't want to root my phone.

I already tried Helium but that's so buggy and doesn't work well and if anything it doesn't work at all.

I kinda run out of options here and is there anything I should know if I'm flashing to Lineage OS?
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] deepankarverma:
You can't, mi backup is something else. It can only be used in miui rom.

I recently purchased the program PDANET from June Fabrics Technology. Using this program, i can tether my laptop to my phone. The problem I run into is when I am tethered, I am unable to access any network shares in my domain. For example, \\Server\ShareDirectory.

I am using Windows Vista Pro and have searched the net and have not found anything than can help me resolve this problem.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] taxilian:
I guess my first question is: why are you using PDANET with a WM6 device? I just use internet connection sharing and it works great...

but maybe there is some restriction on yours that I don't have?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] bishop0114:
PDANET

I tried the Internet connection sharing that is on the new DCD ROM and couldn't get it to work. It connected and appeared to be fine but I couldn't access any web pages. Also, when I use ICS, it disconnects my active sync. With PDANET, I can have both.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaffa1980:
Hi, I know this isn't a real problem but I don't think it belongs in "general".

So I'm due for an upgrade soon (live in the uk) and I have a dilemma. I love my g4's camera (the main buying point when I got it) but I have noticed vs other phones (namely Samsung due to a rivalry between me my wife and son) that when zoomed in the pic quality is awful.

I know it will be worse than normal due to digital zoom, but my son has an s5 and my wife has an s6 and zoomed in they look like passable photos whereas mine looks like suck on a screen....

I love astrophotography and the g4 is epic for it! Samsung on let you have 10 secs in manual mode for long exposure.

Should I go with the s8+ as I have seen they are a good phone (Samsung have no boot loop which got me... Bad!) and the zoom is beautiful (a mate went on a cruise and took some amazing shots at full zoom)

Or should I wait for the v30 which might come out in the uk and hope they sort the zoom out?

Btw I can't do HTC u11 it just looks awful! And the one plus isn't available on my network.

Thoughts would be great please
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htr5:
I have no problems with he zoom. If you have enough light, it can be great quality. In manual mode, you can set the exposure to 2, 4, 8, 15 or 30 seconds and ISO down to 100.

Here's some pictures with lots of light and low light.

I'd personally wait for the v30 as I'd never go back to Samsung. They're too aggressive with their extra 'features'.

Edit: looks like the uploads have been compressed. :/
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaffa1980:
That's zoomed in when you take the pic? Here is mine.... In manual iso 50 manual focusView attachment 4241453View attachment 4241454

I appreciate my white balance is off... But this is the sort of thing I mean... My son loves the train over the river and as you can see from the guy in high vis... I can't see sh*t when zoomed
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htr5:
That definitely looks strange. There is no optical zoom on most smartphones, it just crops the image. When I crop in all the way, it becomes grainy but never blurry. If you're sure that you have your focus correct and aren't shaking your hands, there might be something wrong with the sensor or lens.

[Amazfit] ventura1977:
Hi,

I have an e-bike. Just to test the GPS accuracy of my new watch i used the "bike" sport program. The top speed of my bike is around 20-24 km/h. The GPS tracking went really well, I am impressed there. However I saw rather strange and high heart rate readings. It was 113 bpm in average and 146 bpm as highest. I actually do not have much physical activity using the e-bike in full assist mode. I really have to push hard myself to get my heart rate to about 150 pbm.

I did repeat the test and got the same result.

So I have to conclude that, the watch checks my speed and thinks I am pushing hard on a "real" bike. It does not take the actual sensor reading, but something "pre-programmed" = fake one.
[Amazfit] babaroga73:
Hmm, it's probably that. Although it gives me approx. the same readings on my regular bike, but I'm just a fat bastard.

If you have a chance to wear some other heart rate bracelet simultaneously, do that, and compare results.
[Amazfit] trueruer:
Their faking algorithm is well known to be very advanced... it also takes temperature, atmospheric pressure, activity duration, your weight, height, and age into account. It also manages to pass comparative tests to other similar devices and external heart rate monitors, and detects when you give your watch to another person and measures his HR correctly. Ah, yes, and yesterday I saw some bright lights in the sky - be prepared, the aliens are coming.
[Amazfit] ventura1977:
Hi,

Can't decide what you are saying... So you mean the measurements should be correct and I am "making up" the complaints on the bad readings? Or else?
[Amazfit] kodorevi8ulis:
it's different to say that "i get bad readings" (or not very accurate) and different "i get fake readings"

btw gps has nothing to do with the hr measures (common sense , gps is only for outdoor activities)
[Amazfit] trueruer:
I've just showed you what happens when way of thinking is flawed, based on what I see when using only my amazfit device and taking your hypothesis that there is a faking algorithm involved. Nothing more. I suggest you read this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_method , then continue your investigation into why in your case the watch is showing faulty(if it is faulty) data and in what conditions. Otherwise your proposition about faking is no different than the one about an alien invasion coming every time there is a bright light in the sky.
[Amazfit] bootsie99:
I kinda ran into a similar issue. I was wearing the Pace past the wristbone and had my Schosche Rythmm+ on the forearm connected to my Under Amour App on my smartphone and went for a walk/Run - the heartrate readings and caloric burn were way off. The highest my Pace Watch would show is about 110 or 120, but i was running 400M intevals with 2:30 minutes of rest in between. My Rythm was showing 140-160 on the sprints. Which is about accurate.

So I am question the ability and accuracy of the device. If we could connect to an external HRM via Bluetooth this watch would be killa!
[Amazfit] ventura1977:
I really like the watch and not trying to make up stories guys. It was a simple observation about an odd behaviour.

Somewhere I have saw posted that single measurements seems to be accurate, but if you ran a sport program it is way off.

I suppose the easiest way is to verify this is to run a program while sitting in the car or bus with gps good signal.
[Amazfit] qpqpqp:
Is there a possibility that while on your bike felt adrenaline when you were going fast causing your heart rate to go up?
[Amazfit] kwoodall:
Honestly, if you want accurate heart rates get an Amazfit Health Band w/it's ECG sensor. http://amazfitcentral.com/amazfit-health-band-specifications/
[Amazfit] andy1m:
I use mine for jogging. The first firmware was very accurate but after the OTA update it always said that heart rate too high, over 170. Then I have to keep the strap pretty tight to get better reading.

Then I changed the firmware to PACIfied version. Reading was good again & without too much tightening of strap.
[Amazfit] jhenrikb:
I think the watch fakes it too.

I think it fakes it too.

Did some tests. Ran an intervall where it got all the way up to 195. Which was 10 beats off what the treadmill shows. Which is fine, not expecting it to be that accurate so high.

Then I walked flat for 6kmh and it detected 110 which is also OK. Then I walked 6kmh with 10 degree uphill.

Now watch still show 110, mill showing 150.

It doesn't detect the uphill.

I'm so extremely disappointed in this thing. Wasted 110$
[Amazfit] steekyjim:
I'm going to run on the treadmill for thirty minutes, then put the watch on as soon as i stop the machine and see what the heart rate is.

FYI, had a Cambridge University educated doctor take my pulse and he said it was a lot less than what the amazefit watch was saying.
[Amazfit] Toni Maltes:
[Amazfit][Bip] heart rate sensor is a joke (firmware 0.9.40)

Hi, I have purchased the Amazfit Bip recently, it was cheap.

Several threads on the heart rate sensor of the Pace have try to warn against a possible fake feature.

I would like to extend this notice on the Bip after few tests.

I have posted a video on youtube to illustrate. unfortunately I am not able to post the link, here the title :

"Amazfit Bip heart rate sensors test."

Hope this helps.

here the description of the video :

A video of a heart rate test of the Huami Amazfit Bip watch. It can be seen that the watch does not offer a measurement but an estimate of the heart rate. This estimation rely on the time elapsed in the activity as seen in the first part of the video; but also on the information that can give the optical sensor, in the second part of the video. After turning off the camera, I started to move and put away my stuff and thus stress the accelerometer: the estimate of the heart rate has recovered.

The problem is that my heart rate could not exceed 60 bpm during the whole test (nothing doing it is around 54).

After several tests, this estimate seems made from several parameters:

- time: over time the heart rate increases in the effort

- what the optical sensor gives.

- the accelerometer : to detect an activity. (although in the first part of the video the watch does not move)

- parameters on age, weight, height, reported in mi fit, to establish a range of variation in the estimation of the heart rate.

Why that ? Maybe the sensor is unable to provide a measurement: the flash intensity is very low on this watch, the sensor covers a very small area.

What I expected: a measure like my polar f6

(without signal nothing is displayed: "--")

With a phone that has GPS and pedometer, it would have been better to invest in a Bluetooth module with electrodes.
[Amazfit] Kéno40:
You're right, when missing data, the BIPseems to interpole the resullts with the data available.

If you put the BIP on your wrist during that time, it sloooooowwly go down to the HR. It's still rely to the old incomplete data that globally at this moment gives a false result.

That could be improved by software I hope.

Are you sure it's tighten well ?

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] ReDevolver:
Well, this phone is great.

But I was moving some music around from the sd card to internal memory; using windows 10 explorer and it deleted the 3 original (MP3 I think) songs on the phone instead of moving them?

Mind you, this is the win 10 insider edition and it always does feral things to devices but I never expected it to delete the music as I had selected Move to the target destination.

Does anyone have those songs from the mate 9 that I could download?

And is there a safe way to move things from external sd card to phone internal memory that won't delete things? I think Windows 10 explorer is scaring me now.
