I've read people say you can just install the Google camera app, and that it works fine (but no more detail than that - I imagine it might not use the monochrome camera, will be surprised if it tries to use both together).

PS: The camera really is beyond awful. The results are on par with a 20 year old disposable camera. Really need to get something better ASAP.

Guys am I missing something? Is there any way to change from a 4:3 aspect ratio to a 16:9 one for the rear cameras using the default camera app? I am able to do it of course using the Google camera app.

I haven't seen anyone mention that the stock camera app is compressing the pics. Stock pics come out at 1.6 mbs or so while Gcsm is 3+ mbs.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] gqukyo:
Don't have the phone on me now but I'd imagine it's the resolution that sets the aspect ratio so choose one that is 16:9 like 4032x2268 (9.1M) or 2560:1440 (3.7M). At least those are my options on my S8's stock camera app... lol
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mocsharp:
Just got the phone and seeing the resolution as 4160x3120 but the file is only 1mb vs 5.5mb on the Google camera. Too much compression, no wonder the photos look so grainy.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blitzik:
My original intent was to root, but after unlocking the bootloader and installing twrp, I got stuck in a bootloop. My attempt to fix that wound up deleting my OS. I'm bricked.

I'm lucky that my computer still recognizes my phone, but I can't find a tutorial that works for me without errors. Not fully familiar with mfastboot, but I do have it downloaded. Tried sideloading, putting a rom on the sd card, and pushing through mfast boot, all failures.

Anyone help?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] iamnotexisting:
Heya, I'm a bit new and have a few questions. :o

I am curious if anyone knows/has any custom ROMs compatible with my device. Unfortunately it doesn't look like Renovate ICE is compatible with my model, and I am struggling to find if there are any others that might be useful.

My main motivation is to get rid of the annoying 80% battery issue with SamPWND (unfixable as of late) and to hopefully get rid of the "safe volume level" warning you get after rebooting and using headphones. If anyone has any methods to get rid of this warning, they would be much appreciated. (Yes, I have tried the Xposed module NoSafeVolumeWarning and it doesn't seem to be doing the trick...)

Other than that, I think I have found most answers to my questions! I am enjoying my Samsung, but if anyone can help me out, I would very appreciate it! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] Aruku:
I'm in the same boat, although I also want not to have the AT&T branding.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] V0idst4r:
Lol. SamPWND uses an engineering kernel that doesn't verify the system partition. The kernel is also what's capping the battery at 80%, a ROM won't fix this and there won't be a wide variety of ROMs because we can't use a custom kernel.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] jc9896:
I have had this weird bug with all headphones, all ROMS and on all Android versions.

Basically on YouTube while I am watching the volume slider will appear and then auto adjust the volume up and down randomly. Even on headphones without physical volume buttons.

Afterwards the Google Assistant or Google Now will launch into voice search mode and the video will keep pausing and resuming.

I do not press the volume buttons at all. This is a very irritating problem and I need a fix for that ASAP.

Anyone else have this problem?

[Samsung Gear S3] ZSchoone:
I have a gear s3 with Verizon and have had it about 2 months and I was told I can do custom ring tones but not notifications. I paid for and have the samsung file transfer app on both my watch and phone. I am able to send mp3 files to my watch but when I open file manager on the watch there is no ring tone or notification folder. Do I need to root for that access and if so how do I do it or am I missing something. Any help or words of wisdom from the Xda community would be great thanks. Zack

By putting the watch in Airplane mode then from settin, General Management, Date and Time change the time zone.

[Fire General] Jake1702_:
Did I not see many posts about not being able to use Google Now on a non-rooted Fire? Then what's this? Why was I able to see it in Launcher Hijack just fine?
[Fire General] savvytechwinner:
I don't know? It works for me... kinda

Just odds I guess, but did you really have to start a new thread about it?
[Fire General] Jake1702_:
Where else was I supposed to post it?
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
Did you happen to 'uninstall' Fire Launcher? If so, what method did you use? If you 'uninstall' it, you can use just about any launcher you want. Hijacker works with some launchers, and some it does not. 50/50 chance. It does happen to work rather well with Google Now Launcher.
[Fire General] Jake1702_:
I actually used a method in a thread on the forum about disabling the fire launcher without root. I'm not using Launcher hijack for it at the moment. If I remove all the items from the "recent" screen, unfortunately it shows fire Launcher. Anything else though, pressing the home button immediately goes to Google Now, without any delay. How would one uninstall it without root? Can it be done just like uninstalling the Amazon apps?

EDIT: After some investigation it seems it WAS Launcher hijack doing it. I assumed it wasn't since I hadn't enabled the accessibility service.
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
See this post. Be warned though: the recent apps button (square button) has a fit when you uninstall Fire Launcher. You get kicked to lock screen when you swipe all your apps away. So you need to enable widgets. That will also allow shortcuts to be created.

To fix that recent apps button:

1) Download and install Activity Launcher

2) Open Activity Launcher, tap top left and select All Activities.

3) Scroll to System UI and tap it. Long press 'App Switcher' and create a shortcut. Place it as close to the recent apps (the square button) as possible. When you want to swipe close your apps, use that shortcut and you avoid the kick to lock screen. If you just uninstall Fire Launcher without downgrading it, you will break the home button and get parental warnings all over.

[Fire General] Jake1702_:
I wish I could go back in time. Before I knew that 5.3.2.1+ would cause these problems, the day I first got it, it was on an older OS. Not sure which one, but it doesn't matter, it could have been rooted. The next day when I woke up I saw it had updated, but I didn't think much of it. Until I learned that I had made such a big mistake.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] CLJNCO:
Hello folks, My friend has a Moto G5 plus and she is also Visually Impaired. There are some issues, with talkback she is having that I am thinking may be 7.0 related, Also there are changes in 8.0 that she really is quite excited about. I am wondering if going to a custom ROM that is an up to date version and will probably hit Oreo before Moto ever gets to it wouldn't help her out, Also some of the custom roms seem to have some feature themselves that might be handy. So I have been researching how to go about this.

Basically what I

THINK

I want is pretty close to stock and most recent and least buggy version of android., But I know she watches Netflix and other things, so Since I have to root on the G5 to load any rom I believe the only way to do it and maintain things like netflix is with Magisk, Is this correct? So I am looking at Lineage OS or RR, leaning toward Lineage.

There is overwhelming amount of info on this so I want to do this correct, So here is a rough of what I understand the process to be.

First step is to unlock the boot loader

then load latest TWRP 3.1.1.1 custom recovery or is SuperSu better, this one of the parts got me little confused.

Once that is done, this I need to create a Nandroid backup and go ahead an wipe/reset the phone.

From here I use the TWRP recovery to install nstall no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip"(FLASH IT) and Magisk, and flash "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip", correct?

Then Flash Magisk again and allow it to update, is that about right?

Then flash the Rom?

Last but not least flash the GAPPS, of which there seem to be a few to chose from. Still unsure the differences, Thinking just Open GAPPS.

So can anyone tell me does that sound about right? Is there a stupid NewB guide somewhere? Can anyone give me heads up or some of the pitfalls I may have missed or such?

Any help would be awesome.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] scuzzo500:
Most of what I'm reading looks correct. It's been a few months since I rooted mine and I can't remember the exact process but I do remember some of my problems and questions. Make sure you have all files downloaded and copied to your phone. If possible have a backup on a micro SD in case you accidently erased the internal storage. Unlock bootloader, install twrp ( magisk is the way to go for root but several roms don't come prerooted so u can still use wallet, Netflix, etc). I personally didn't install no verity. Install the rom you want and your sound as a pound.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] CLJNCO:
Thank you. I actually flash Lineage using a youtube video I found that seemed to cover what I needed to know. Things seem to be working well, many of the bugs I seemed to deal with in stock 7.0 rom, one I thought to actually be hardware thing, seem to have vanished and maybe it's just in my mind, but seems to be much more snappy. I haven't tried any apps that I know have issues w/ root and unlocked bootloaders, but sofar so good with most the apps I have tried, in fact some seem to work better.

I just want to say thank you to developers of these roms and all the tools, We really appreciate you.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] wolfender:
Hi there. I tried to fix this by myself, but I'm out of ideas.

So basically, my brother had this S7 Edge working fine, but one day he just got the message from the title, and he can't hit the RESET DEVICE button. Touch works, Volume button works and Power ON/ OFF. I even plugged a mouse with OTG cable, tried to click the button but nothing.

Then I went into recovery mode, tried to wipe/ erase data, and fails with this message:

_E: format_volume> make ext4 failed on /dev/block/platform/155a0000.ufs/by-name/USERDATA with 1 (I/O error)_

_Data wipe failed._

Then I've tried to use ODIN (v3.12) to flash the latest stock ROM for UK, loaded BL, AP, CP and CSC, marked AutoReboot and F. ResetTime. All works fine, it ends with wiping the data and fails with just ERROR on the screen. If I boot the device, I get the same error as in the title screen.

I've even tried to mark NandErase/ PhoneBootloader Update on ODIN, and nothing.

Phone is original, never been rooted nor unlocked. Never been dropped nor physically damaged This is the info I get from DownloadMode:

ODIN MODE

DOWNLOAD SPEED> FAST

PRODUCT NAME: SM-G935F

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

FRP LOCK: OFF

Secure Download: Enabled

WARRANTY VOID> 0 (0X0000)

RP SWREV: B:1 K:0 S:0

Is there ANY way I could fix it? I don't care about the data inside, I just want to fix the phone for my brother, as he's only been using it for 2 weeks. It's second hand, so no warranty...

If you guys know or have any ideas, I'm open to anything. I just don't want to end up switching the motherboard, because the point is to fix it without any other costs.

Thanks in advance!
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] emkorial:
Finally cracked the screen. Not interested in getting a replacement phone. Touchscreen works fine. Can you buy replacement glass? Or so I need a whole new LCD/Digitizer?
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] yaconsult:
The screen and glass are glued together so you have to replace them both. The price for the replacement screen with glass is $50 on eBay. My previous phone, the Moto G, had cheap replacement screens available but the Blu does not.

I bought a spare Blu R1 HD for $60 that's still in the box in case I drop mine and break the screen. I'll just move the SIM to the new phone. It's already reflashed with the latest updates, rooted, and twrped.

Hi all,

I tried to uninstall Magisk yesterday and ended up stuck in bootloop. I tried wiping the data using twrp, not working, then i tried factory reset using twrp, also not working and worse for some reason my TWRP is not opening anymore after that

Hence i was looking around for the firmware, i found one, extract the update.app and get the boot.img, system.img, cust.img and recovery.img. I flashed it directly using ADB. And it got worse! Only then I realised from the forum that the firmware did not work! Sob2....

Now i'm stuck with a phone where the whole system, boot img, etc is wrong. Can anyone please share with me their firmware? Especially the four img that i messed up....

Really appreciate it...
[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
If you can find the original boot.img which is backed up by magisk, then you can flash it and update to b120 through TWRP

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyokacanthrope:
So I broke my Note 3's (N900W8) display at some point last year and let it sit for...a long while.

I replaced the screen about a month ago and I've noticed that the cover sensor is...well, stuck. It always thinks there's a cover attached and it's 'closed', resulting in an unusable device.

Occasionally it'll work fine for a few days, then go back to this state.

Does anyone know what I can do to fix this outside of recompiling my AOSP ROM of choice and disabling the cover support?

I definitely don't have anything magnetic in or on the phone.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sony667:
For disabling the cover I would do a hardware trick. Remove your back cover, use Tesa Film on the chip in the back cover. Put cover back. No it should run like without S-view cover. You should also dial *#0*#0 to go to the service menu and check all your sensors to see which is damaged.

i had that problem too, the only work around that i found (which is a real hassle) is to open up your sms program, let it recieve the 10 texts, then close the sms program and repeat until you get them all back, also you might want to have your phone charging and on silent as well.
