Yes, it is possible. But just for your information rooting doesnt make the phone worse, you could actually increase it's speed, battery life etc.

Also once you root it then on e and for all ypur phone is classified as software tampered device (since knox is tripped, noway to reset it till now) by samsung. So in case in future you want to use samsung pay theres noway 4 it.

Anyways if you insist in doing then you can proceed in doing (atb;))
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Robocoop12:
Really? Someone told me rooting will make the phone worse, with many problems..

I dont know...this phone is expensive, and i really don't want to lose it or to have problems with the software or anything else..

I think, i try to root for 5-7 days, and if there is no problem or something bad, i will keep it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ahamed.rafi135:
Yes when you dont do with proper assistance or experience, thats why im here advising people, since i have an experien e with s7 edge, i somehow corrupted efs folder and lost imei i dint have a backup so i had to give 900Dhirhams to repair. Thats why im not taking a chance with my s8+ but all this which i told happens only whenbu install custom rom then mess up with it, it doesnt happen when you just root it.

So jus be careful..!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Robocoop12:
I dont want to install custom roms. I just want that 30 second option for shutter speed. And to increase the battery life and etc...i hate custom roms. The original rom is the best for me.

I'll try format data from twrp. I unlock my phone successfully by tapping on notification and then disable swipe unlocking. I had swipe problem. When i tried unlock with swipe, lockscreen only moves and returned to previous state when get finger up. When i tried pull down status bar on lock screen and when i get finger up then locksreen goes back up (close).

Did you maybe flash the rom from Apollo lite? This could explain those problems (also the storage one).

I'd suggest to completely flash this software then (or again).

If you already have recovery installed i suggest to wipe first, and then turn off the phone

I just flashed this rom and i will try to explain it to you( i already had a 7.1.2 rom installed, so the devolpers can correct me if i am wrong)

Step 1: Download SP Flash Tools en MadOS software for Vernee Apollo X

Step 2: Unzip the MadOS software

Step 3: Open SP flash tools, Download tab , and choose Scatter-Loading File

Step 4: Choose the scatter file from the MadOS software

Step 5: Select download only at the traingle and press download

Step 6: Connect your phone while its power is off

Step 7: When downloading is finished, disconnect phone,

Step 8: Boot phone, then go to recovery (hold power, press restart , select recovery)

Step 9: Install Gapps

This is how i did it, but i already had i 7.1.2 rom installed on my phone

I'm thinking of buying Apollo X but I have some doubts:

1 - Does it have an auto focus option when recording videos?

2- In the official website ( http://www.vernee.cc/products/apollox/ ) says that it is possible to record in 1080p @ 60fps. It is really possible?

3- I saw several videos on youtube criticizing the quality of recording videos in both Apollo Lite and Apollo X in the stock version.

In the Lite version a lot of people said that it had a great improvement in the quality of the rear camera with the rom madOS in relation to the stock version.

In Apollo X also had improvement over the stock version?

Are there any specific optimizations for the Sony IMX258 sensor to improve the quality of the recording?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] joerdj:
I have te vernee apollo x , personally i would not reccommend it. With all the roms i tried i have major connectivity issues. Every phone call i try to make fails the first time and only works again after a reboot. Battery life kinda sucks, never make it a full day with one charge. Data connection randmoly drops , and only works again after a reboot. Fingerprint sensor doesnt work 7 out of 10 times.

Maybe I'll pick a VAX, seems to be the only MTK with a decent SoC out there (P25 is not bad, but X20 has A72 cores)

Apollo Lite disapponted me in battery, but VAX has a better one. Seems a good upgrade from S3.

And now that MAD is supporting it.

Autofocus problem

Just received my VAX and immediately installed MADos 7.1.2

Testing if all works fine I found a problem with focusing of the main camera.

It shows good focus for a short moment and then gets out of focus.

The picture is only in focus at 4 cm distance. (macro pictures)

This happens both in standard Camera app of MADos as well in OpenCamera and WhatsApp.

The problem seems not to occur in selfie camera.

Is this a software problem or a hardware issue?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DVO-er:
I wiped dalvik and cache and multiple re-flashes.

Tried different camera apps (Footej, Bacon and “a better camera” ) none had proper autofocus.

I also tried manual focus but that is not working (because lacking of Camera2 API is suppose).

Desperately I flashed Resurrection Remix OS 5.8.3 and autofocus works but buggy.

Often I first have to tap screen for focus point before it focusses right.

RR works fine but it drains the battery in less than 20 hours and,

I bought this phone wanting to use it with MADos.

[MENTION=507649]devs[/MENTION]:

Please make sure that in your Oreo-release autofocus is working perfectly

(and/or it uses Camera2 API).

I will immediately change back to MADos when I can focus the camera.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fire855:
The camera of this phone is ****. Even VAL makes better pictures. On the paper this camera *should* be better but it isn't in reality on VAX. Probably newbund didn't care to improve the camera quality.

I would just give you the advice to click on the preview and focus it on one point. Autofocus is not working good and manual focus is way better with this camera.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DVO-er:
[MENTION=4761533]fire855[/MENTION]:

I tested your method.

It works okay in Stock rom and Ressurection Remix but not well in MADos.

As there are other phones using the Sony IMX258

( https://www.kimovil.com/en/list-smartphones-by-lens-model/sony-imx258 )

is it possible to incorporate a part of a rom which working fine with this camera to MADos?

If yes I'll gladly read reviews to find one which is working and inform you

APOLLO Original android 7.1.2 ROM and video recording

We all owners of APOLLO wants to see all camera resolution not only 4K like 720P, 1080P in HEVC h.265 codec. is it possible? Also the camera APP should do Streaming to Youtube, Facebook and RTMP.. is also possible?

This MOD works also on "APOLLO" 4G original? not only in Apollo X?

Its because Vernee don´t care about us, just you do!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fire855:
You can't manually focus with clicking in the preview? I have the vax myself and that is working fine for me. Also focus in other apps not working in madOS?

Can you upload infos about your phone (flash stock rom before) with the deviceinfomtk app ? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.andr7e.deviceinfohw

Please take screenshots from the general and camera page and upload them.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fire855:
Possible probably yes but not planned. Streaming won't come in madCamera. You can use third party apps for that.

Lens AF and ... missing

[MENTION=4761533]fire855[/MENTION]

I posted the screenshots you requested and looking at them I noticed that both RR as Stock rom show Lens AF files and MADos not.

Same goes for 4 RAW files at "Supported".

.

As autofocus is working the same for me in RR as in Stock rom and is not working in MADos, it seems that IMX258 sensor needs them for autofocus.

.

Maybe they are left out by M.A.D. because VAL has a different camera sensor and doesn't need them but I think VAX does.

.

Maybe Fards, who has improved camera usage on VAL, can give you more info about this subject.

.

In one of his posts he also mentioned this source of info:

https://gitlab.com/mt6797/vendor/find_file/ALPS-MP-M0.MP9-V1.78.1_NB6797_6C_M

.

I realy hope you can solve the autofocus problem I am facing so I can start using MADos.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fire855:
The app just can't read the sensors in madOS. That doesn't mean it has no lens ;)

Fards improved camera? Where?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DVO-er:
The fact that names missing at LENS-setcion seems to me that MADos has no drivers for Autofocussing the lens, whereas StockRom (and RRos) does have them.

On this forum

https://xdaforums.com/general/devic...nee-apollo-lite-helio-x20-4gb-ram-hd-t3362898

Fards is thanked many times for his camera improvements (see attachements).

Including Irish-dude asking SuperdragonPt if Fards improvements will be incorporated in MADos.

I know VAL doesn't have same back camera as VAX but it might be that the problems he solved for VAL are the same kind as my VAX is facing.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fire855:
The app is just not able to read the drivers on madOS. It's completely different than stock rom or RR. madOS must have any lens drivers or AF wouldn't work for anyone on VAX and VAL.

Did fards release his changes or only prebuilt files?

2. Flash the MAD Rom

I have installed the ADB drivers, I have downloaded the MAD rom and SP Flash Tool.

Touchscreen Lag

Hi, I installed the ROM in my VAX and I have the same problem of lag on the touchscreen of the device after the screen unlock. The touchscreen only works approximately after 5 seconds of waiting after the screen unlock. My device had the bootloader unlocked when I installed it, could it have affected in any way? Or would the correct installation be with the bootloader blocked? Can someone send me a screenshot of the Running Services where it shows the memory used by the system and the apps? I think after installation the system is using a lot of memory. Sorry for some grammar mistakes. Thanks in advance
