[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] hs911:
why do you think the portrait mode does not use the second camera?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] xterminater07:
Well two reasons, they never really mention what focal length the second camera is, most flagship say its a 2x optical which is a typical 52mm lens. Second, you can see the stapphy's pic, the bokeh is way off.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] hs911:
well i can not fully agree with you. i admit that i have no technical details for constructing pictures with two cameras but i made a simple test: i put my finger on the mono cam:

monochrome cam covered:

both cams free:
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] xterminater07:
Interesting, I was only saying that because most true portrait set up needs a telephoto lens bc of the focal length 52mm used. The latest OP5 removed their telephoto lens and created portrait solely by upscaling pixels taken by the second lens. There is a article on gsmarena that explains this, so maybe essential is doing the same?!? But to me, anything not using a 52mm setup for portrait is all software emulated.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] gk1984:
Essential had mentioned that both cameras are the same focal length (or at least appear to be, they didn't give specs). The difference is color vs mono. And if you look into stereo photography, which has existed since almost the dawn of photography, it's composed of 2 lenses at the same focal length slightly offset from one another similar to the dual camera setup on this phone. It produces 3d images. This is because each image is slightly offset from the other, producing a slightly different perspective. This is also how we see depth with our own eyes.

If you can produce 3d/stereo images with 2 lenses next to each other, then you could calculate how far the images are offset from one another by overlapping them. Where the offset is further, you might assume the object is further and thus produce a shallower depth of field there.

Where I'm unsure is how the expected to combine the 2 images because they won't match identically. Either they're so close that stereo imagery as I described has little to no offset, making my point above completely irrelevant and allowing them to be combined as originally planned, or there's enough offset that they're having difficulty in combining the images which is why there has been very little confirming it's actively doing this.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] xterminater07:
Excellent analysis! The prior 2 lens system that existed was used for 3D purposes only. However, now there's softwares involved that pretty much said to ignore anything that is behind the main focus point regardless of how minimal the depth differences are. The 7 Plus didn't even make use of the telephoto until it detects an X amount of lighting present. There was a video just surfaced to show how the iPhone X turns on it's telephoto at a lower lighting than the 7 Plus or 8 Plus, I forgot which one. Most dual camera phones without telephoto lens is pretty much just like you said color and mono, and the mono allows for better color. The camera system would merge the two together to enhance color, not needing a larger aperture for low lighting since the mono takes care of that.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] gk1984:
I don't think you're accurate on one aspect, but otherwise yes. The mono camera doesn't do anything for color. It is physically impossible to capture color data on the monochrome sensor. Rather, that sensor is missing the layers/components that filter light into red, green, and blue. The benefits are less objects on the sensor blocking light passing through and possibly (depending on design) more surface area to capture light. So the mono sensor captures more light and more detail. Combining the 2 images is supposed to offer more detailed images and help with exposure. Anything to do with color is from the color sensor and post-processing. Quality lenses can also help the color accuracy, but it's unclear if the lens on the camera is as good as it can be or not.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] xterminater07:
Oops, I don't mean enhance color as in Saturation and color itself. What I mean is like making the pictures more details with color and contrasts that sort, shadows and lighting. However, it is interesting the guy above cover the second lens and bokeh went away.

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] freonchill:
i apologize if these seems like stupid idea, but I come from having a Samsung S4 (sgh-i337) and would save my data to the SD card and wipe all of the internal memory when clean flashing new roms.

is there a way to do that for the 128gb storage space, to save 10-15gb for backups, roms, etc? assuming in TWRP

I got my 5T on Tuesday and already have installed TWRP and rooted my device

I just didnt want to configure it too much if i have to wipe it all to resize partitions

thanks for the feedback
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] yung40oz84:
No, u cannot save space on the internal memory that will not be touched. You do not have to wipe your internal memory though when flashing new ROMs. That is completely separate from the flashing process. When flashing you wipe cache, dalvik, boot, system, and data, not storage or internal memory. Flash the ROM, boot up, and everything on your internal storage will be present. Also, this should go in the questions and answers thread.

Have you done a soft reset (pin in hole) after erasing the soft ? If yes, better way to do it is to proceed a hard reset. First synchronize with your PC in order to save your datas and then make "eras datas" in parameters/system. Translation may be not good as my Arthemis is in french !

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
Let me know if this post belongs somewhere else.

My Mi A1 is stuck in a bootloop as a result of trying to install magisk 14.4. At the moment I can boot it into fastboot mode, but not into recovery mode. In fastboot I can execute the command

fastboot devices

that returns the hex number followed by "fastboot." However, it does not respond to any other fastboot commands, e.g.

fastboot reboot

fastboot oem device-info

I have been attempting to flash the stock rom without success as follows:

in win10 32-bit environment:

fastboot responds as above. I cannot install the MiFlash-2017-7-20 version. Windows complains. I conclude that version must be a w10 64-bit app, although it doesn't say so.

win10 64-bit

MiFlash-2017-7-20 installs and runs, but does not see the device. Apparently, the adb drivers are at fault. I have turned off signature enforcement and tried installing various versions of the adb drivers. The device manager shows them as installed, but reports that they cannot start.

Centos 7 linux

Adb drivers install. "Fastboot devices" reports correctly. All other fastboot commands fail, i.e. they hang. I tried installing the tissot_images_7.8.23_20170823.0000.00_7.1_61cf97d794 image using the linux shell script provided, but that just hung also.

Is this phone well and truly bricked at this point? Is there any other recovery available?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Edwin Hamal:
I think it is not hard bricked by any means. Try booting into the Quallcomm EDL and try flashing the fastboot rom with MiFlash too. You can setup a virtual environment in which the flash tool can run and the drivers can install properly.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] GalihBK:
Maybe you should boot to other partition (A or B)

[MENTION=8754397]yuoip[/MENTION]

1. You say that "fastboot devices" works, but "fastboot reboot" not. What error do you receive? Could you paste full log?

2. Sometimes drivers in Windows must be installed manually - open device manager, find unknown device, choose from list and find and choose "android fastboot" or "android adb" device depending on the mode you're in. If you have installed fastboot device before, you should be good to go. Otherwise you'll need to download minimal adb package (https://freeandroidroot.com/download-minimal-adb-and-fastboot-all-versions/), or Google development kit (much larger).

3. stock recovery mode is started by pressing "power button + volume up", once "no command" screen appears, press shortly "power button + volume up" to show the menu.

4. please post full log of command "adb devices" as well
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] dhewaghost:
Hola guys. I got mostly the same issue here. While I still can use adb comand while on fastboot. But i can't flash stock rom using mi flash.. i mean after the done notice my phone still stuck and wont reboot. Like the flash doesnt apply to the phone. I wonder what was wrong
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Unpack ROM image, extract directory, open cmd, run "flash_all_except_storage.bat" (you might want to remove command "fastboot %* oem lock" from the end of bat first), check/show log.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] zazzy24:
The easiest thing that worked for me in a similar situation is going into stock recovery and factory resetting the device. I had tried pretty much everything before this and my device was still dead for 1 and a half days before i hit upon this idea without any guides and it worked!!

Do this to get into recovery mode:

1. Power off your phone

2. Press power button and volume up button at the same time

3. You will get "No command" Screen with Android robot with exclamation mark

4. Press power button (don't release) then press volume up button..

5. You will enter into recovery...

The phone may just reboot normally the 1st time you try it as it requires some practice to get it right, but keep trying..

Hope this helps:svetius:
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
1. I tried this method to boot into EDL with no luck. Is there any other way?

C:\Downloads\xiaomi mi a1 root>adb reboot edl

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

error: device '(null)' not found

2. On my win10 32-bit installation I am able to run MiFlash-2017045. It reports the device. I attempted to flash this image:

tissot_images_7.8.23_20170823.0000.00_7.1_61cf97d794

It completed and reported "success" however it did so in only 7 seconds, so it must not actually have succeeded. In any case the phone still will not boot.

3. However, I distrust MiFlash 20170425 because it comes from an androidmtk.com site and the processor is Qualcomm, not Mediatek. So I attempted to install MiFlash2017-07-20. However, that program will not install on my win10 32-bit installation. There is a Windows msg saying it cannot be installed, but does not give a reason. I suspect it is a 64-bit program. So, I installed MiFlash2017-7-20 in a win 10 64-bit installation. The program does run, but it does not see the device. I suspect that the adb drivers do not install correctly. I did turn off signature enforcement and the drivers appear to install, but the device manager reports that the drive cannot start.

The tissot images include bourne shell scripts to install, so I installed the adb drivers on my Centos box. Fastboot reports the device, but just as in win10 no other fastboot commands work. So, even though I did try to execute the install_all.sh script, it just hung on the first "fastboot getvar product" command.

So, I do not have a way to flash the stock rom.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
1. All fastboot commands, other than "fastboot devices" just hang on "<waiting for device>" with no error message in the linux environment. In the win10 environment they timeout after a few seconds with a message like this:

C:\Downloads\xiaomi mi a1 root\tissot_images_7.8.23_20170823.0000.00_7.1_61cf97d794\tissot_images_7.8.23_20170823.0000.00_7.1_61cf97d794\tissot_images_7.8.23_7.1>fastboot oem device-info

...

FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))

finished. total time: 7.000s

2. I had already installed adb-setup-1.43.exe, but I ran it again anyway. Same result.

3. The device will not boot into recovery mode. Pressing power and volume up brings it the "no command" screen with the supine robot image.

4. C:\Downloads\xiaomi mi a1 root>adb devices

List of devices attached

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

No other output.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] nilkanth.marshiwane:
Use fastboot commands manually. Mi flash tool is very buggy. Many time it doesn't work.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
Did the command:

C:\Downloads\xiaomi mi a1 root\tissot_images_7.8.23_20170823.0000.00_7.1_61cf97d794\tissot_images_7.8.23_20170823.0000.00_7.1_61cf97d794\tissot_images_7.8.23_7.1>fastboot getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *tissot" ||

"Missmatching image and device"

So this is a little interesting. However, I don't think that the image is actually the wrong one, but that the script cannot get the device info since both "fastboot getvar product" and "fastboot oem device-info" fail on a timeout.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
When I do that it just keeps going back to the "no command" screen. I think the recovery image is either damaged or gone.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
1. & 2. It sounds like you don't have installed fastboot drivers (install them manually via device manager) or phone isn't connected in fastboot mode (make sure there is a picture with fastboot written on the phone).

3. this IS the recovery mode, just press power + volume up again to show the menu

4. you won't see ADB devices in fastboot or recovery mode, unless you enable ADB sideload from recovery
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
Device Manager shows:

Android Phone
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Wrong drivers then, it should say Android bootloader interface. Reinstall them correctly.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
1. I did the manual install, but I don't see anything labeled "fastboot driver."

Device manager now reports:

Android Phone

Android ADB Interface

Android Bootloader Interface

Android Bootloader Interface

Android Composite ADB Interface

However, all these entries have a warning symbol on them. The Device status for each is:

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

The specified request is not a valid operation for the target device.

Is one of these the fastboot driver? Apparently not, since the behavior of the fastboot command hasn't changed.

When I try using the fastboot command the A1 shows "Fastboot" with the rabbit character and the sick robot.

I should mention that in the Centos environment I have installed the android-tools package, which include adb and fastboot drivers and tools. The behavior of the fastboot command there is the same.

So, this leads me to believe that the problem is the A1, not the windows or linux environment, but I don't know enough to know for sure. Also, I would assume that if the fastboot drivers were not installed, the command "fastboot devices" would fail, but it doesn't.

3. At the "no command screen" if I do press and hold the power button and then the vol. up button it boots right back into the "no command" screen. There is no menu.

4. With no recovery menu I can't set any options.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Uninstall/remove everything with android name in it, disconnect phone, reconnect phone in fastboot mode. Make sure that there is only one item under Android Phone - Android Bootloader Interface. You should not see 4 devices - do you have Android emulator running or anything else connected?

When in recovery, do not hold power + volume up, just press it briefly. Sometimes it takes few tries to show the menu, but I can assure you that it's there.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yuoip:
Yes! You're right. The recovery menu is indeed there. I didn't know that it had to be a short press to bring it up. Thanks.

Device manager now shows only one "Android Bootloader Interface" entry. I am not running any emulator.

So now what do I do? Do I need to flash the tissot... image? The fastboot command still behaves as before.
