This post is in regards to if you're in the US and ordering from Essential from the pre-registration.

Black vs White? Only Black is shipping in the next week. White is a "few weeks" out still. Who knows about Ocean Depth and others. (As of now, matte white isn't even promised to ever be available even after the big deal that Andy made of it on the reveal interview.)

There are no reviews out yet. Hopefully soon! :(

The 360 camera ships later. Nobody knows when later is. :(

Essential has a 15-day 100% money back return policy. Their Return Policy page is quite simple but there are some additional clauses in the purchase agreement that don't show up in their return policy page, notably about the theft detection mechanisms (it's unclear what this is exactly, if it's anything more than the standard Android thing that you can disable when resetting the phone).

Essential is offering a 2-yr extended warranty via Assurion that costs $99 for 2 years and has a $99 deductible for claims. Details here. Alternatively, tech_head below has shared some great info on 2-3 year Square Trade options, including a coupon for a discount.

Hopefully this info is helpful to somebody! I'm sure there's more info that can be added but these were a lot of things that weren't very obvious and took quite a bit of digging around to find. Enjoy!
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_head:
I'm looking at the warranty. I read the terms.

It states that they can replace it with a phone with less features *AND* if they pay you out, it's based on "market" value as deemed by them.

I think I'll pay $160 for 3 years of Square Trade. Better terms. They refund full price if no repair is possible or if they can't find an identical refurb.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Jaxidian:
Do you have a link where that can be bought, or at least a starting point? I'll add it to the OP for others. I'm with you, I prefer SquareTrade, although I'm not sure I'd get a 3 yr plan. No way I'd not upgrade after 1-2 years.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_head:
Just go to the Square Trade website and buy a smartphone plan.

https://www.squaretrade.com/smartphone-warranty

Two years is $149 but if you use the code Aug20, you get $20 off. I have used them for tablets, cameras and my LG watch.

I have filed a claim for different types of devices.

1. Full refund on a tablet.

2. Another tablet repaired.

3. Camera couldn't be repaired and the sent me a refurbished.

4. LG Urbane 2 got water damaged. They sent me a replacement from LG still in the box with all new accessories.

As far as 3 years, it's another $30 and you can transfer it when you buy a new phone. Better resale value.

This is an open souce platform and i think you are senior enough to know that what is open source.

Open source doesn't mean you straight up steal other people's work, and I think you're junior enough to NOT understand that. I support the complaints of the original user who made this. This is shameful.

Edit: Flashed This Mod On MIUI 9 v7.8.10. Works But Lags a Lot. Developer has confirmed that It is still in beta so it will lag, But I believe it would definitely becomes stable one day.

Also I saw that If we restore the original lib, even then manual camera on Stock MIUI camera works with max exposure time 1/2 sec. But Manual Camera too lags again. Any way to uninstall the Camera Tweak??
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] kashyapshashankv:
Follow my steps

1. open any root explorer

2. go to system>etc>device_feaure>then there will be a file mido.xml.

3.open that file and find <bool name="support_camera_manual_function">true</bool> and change it to <bool name="support_camera_manual_function">false</bool>

4.reboot(you can also change other features as per your need but make sure you know what you are going to do.

samsung version pls
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryan_OY:
Hello, i'm user of redmi note 5(china). I found the same question in my phone, i can only get 0.53s exposure time to the longest. And i studyed it for several days, i came to the same place just like you provided in this thread. I think the exposure time range is a parameter hidden in some file, so i searched for the file. The file was named by "libmmcamera_whyred_s5k2l7_ofilm_cn_i.so" and located in root/system/vendor/lib. But i failed to modify this file because of my poor programming skill. May i ask you some questions about modifying this ".so" file? How to find the parameter "exposureTimeRange" in this file?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryan_OY:
May i ask you how to search for the source code, i got samsung s5k2l7 in my whyred, i want to study the exposure time limit too.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] FaXiR:
In fact, the source code of my module came to me through 4 shipments, and they are by accident.

Try to find the source code of the module in the source code of the ROM, it may already have everything.

IDA.... It's unusual for me. But I'm gonna try... In fact, the difficulty is to understand what each section is responsible for, because I have no idea what I'm editing.

All I know is that in these six addresses, there's an excerpt. (And that's the problem)

By the way, on 4PDA found a way of dealing with the blue pixels Samsung module (and not only Samsung module).

If who knows and who can. Try to find a smartphone that has exactly the same camera module, but at the same time, there is an exposure longer than 0.67 s.

A little interest. Address " 31d8"

The value of 01 is negative.

Value 02 - the original. (All I could find at random).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryan_OY:
I extracted the ROM files of Mblue note 6, which shares the same camera module with my phone. I opened the file (libmmcamera_s5k2l7.so) with IDA pro. But the files is different from the same file of my phone in many sections.Maybe I should study how to understand this so file.Thanks for your reply.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] akran:
Any luck to get mod for Samsung sensors, please?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] akran:
I suppose the project had been abandoned. Actually what had been achieved so far seems to be a product of pure luck. Modifying some parts of a binary file by test and try method isn't as promising as we would like to be.

So, one year after the camera mod for Sony sensors, I think we have to stop waiting for something more. :(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] FaXiR:
And so, I once again tried to raise the exposure and... Nothing.

Our shutter speed (Samsung module) will not be higher than 0.67 seconds until there is a limit of 12 bits. I don't know how to get around it. But!

I tried this primitive method (to increase the value of "maxlinecount") to make exposure on the samsung front camera and omni module. I tried to set 1 second (because there is no point in doing more, 12 bits same), hoping to get a possible ~0.67 on the Omni module and the front camera because it is better than nothing.

P.S. now your goal will be to find the values when the shutter speed (real) stops increasing. Later, I will make the necessary restriction in lib. It is necessary for the Google camera so that it does not rely on fake 1 second and take dark photos.

On 4PDA, people test but don't unsubscribe, so I post here.

P.P.S. this method (to raise "maxlinecount") works well on the module of the IMX.

P.P.P.S. i use a Translator.

You can put only Magick module, or manually replace the files, usually their path system/vendor/lib

It is not necessary to backup the system completely, just make a backup of the files that will be replaced.

Just take out the gaps.

https: / / goo.gl / x42oho

And yet, the person who told me how to raise the shutter speed, was surprised by the strange content of our modules (Samsung and Omni).

Add exposure for s5k3l8. But this time Ezdman helped me - the result, nothing. Although this method helped to make 4 seconds for MI A1. Perhaps because I have installed a custom ROM camera does not work after modifications.

P.P.P.P.S .I tried to change the clock, as in the IMX module, but it gave only a ripple and a couple of problems in the video, the shutter speed has not changed. What I don't understand now is the change in one of the codes. If you check with the source code, there is the following.

#define RES0_REG_ARRAY \
{ \
{0x6028, 0x4000, 0x00}, \
{0x0100, 0x0000, 0x00}, \
{0x6028, 0x2000, 0x00}, \
{0x602A, 0x0F74, 0x00}, \
{0x6F12, 0x0040, 0x00}, \
{0x6F12, 0x0040, 0x00}, \
{0x6028, 0x4000, 0x00}, \
{0x0344, 0x0008, 0x00}, \
{0x0346, 0x0008, 0x00}, \

This? What's it?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Developer.:
Did you tried modify the exposure time to smaller?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] FaXiR:
Make sense?

The value I can edit mimics "self-restraint". It's like wanting to go to bed, but you ignore that need. Sooner or later you will fall asleep-this is your natural strength.

But if you drink coffee, you can stay awake longer.

The problem I can't overcome at lib is coffee. Rather, his absence and ignorance of how to get it.

Hello there, its good. working.BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I have previously enabled camera2 api and been using google hdr+ mod app. But after this camera mod my google camera app is crashing. CAn you please provide a fix for that. (I have camera 2 api enabled). One more thing your camera mod can be applied without root. Just change to twrp recovery and use twrp's inbuilt file manager to change the lib file ( you can use adb pull command to pull the original lib file or just copy paste using the twrp file manager)

Sony owners, I know how to fix the viewfinder brakes. To do this, put the mod 32 seconds. Take a Snap camera with activated 2 api and tell what shutter speed is displayed on the right, at the time of complete darkness (or screenshot). (P.S. so I can do it for 16 and 8 second mods, but I do not see the point).

I'll try to do 1/13, but I can do any other.
