[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] mentalfloss:
Is "Unlimited photo/video in Original quality" valid for all devices and media?

In the Backup portion of the Google Photos app it states "Photos and videos uploaded from your PIxel before 2021-01-16 get unlimited free storage at Original quality"

How about photos/video that weren't created on the Pixel 2's hardware? I'm thinking of things like raw .ARW photos or video taken from my Sony RX100. I haven't yet tried it on the phone but the raw .ARW files upload to Google Photos via the Backup and Sync From Google software on Windows so they may as well on android.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
Photos and Videos taken with Pixel phones can upload at original quality. I have tried using other phones, but all I got is backup at high quality. I don't see much difference except the file size on Pixel photo/video backup is bigger.

Now, if you use Windows PC and try to upload a photo/video file, then there are 2 choices(High Quality or Original quality), but you need to set it in the Google Photos settings(default I believe is High Quality)
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] clcdev:
It appears to me that everything backed up by the photos app goes at original quality. I had not previously used the auto backup feature on my nexus, so when I transitioned all my files to the pixel 2 I let it go wild and it uploaded all my transferred files.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] mentalfloss:
But do the Nexus files take up Google account storage space?

I'm trying to take advantage of the store-everything-as-Original option the Pixel 2 offers, so I'm trying to find out if media is evaluated as "Produced By A Pixel 2" so it falls under that.

Are the photos created on your Nexus -- but uploaded from the Pixel 2 -- counting towards your Google storage or are they exempted from storage use by falling under the Pixel 2's "store unlimited Original photos/videos" grace? I know I can do it all under High Quality, but I'd like to do it as Original and take advantage of unlimited storage option I have by using the Pixel 2 .
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] simplepinoi177:
I think it's any picture files -- video I imagine they might do more detection or you could potentially backup whole seasons and series worth of episodes and movies... -- simply uploaded from the pixel 2/XL falls under the unlimited original quality photos/videos. I purposefully downloaded all pictures taking up space in my Google Drive, as well as the photos I've accumulated over the years, and input it in my phone; had Google Photos (stock app) "back[it]up", and checked to see if any space was being taken up in my Google Drive...and it was not! I've actually "converted" folders and gigabytes of photos taking up physical space on my devices taking advantage of this feature. Once I saw a hint that Google Photos didn't really discriminate what photos was being backed up, I definitely wanted to test and take advantage if it were possible.

Hope this helps...
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] mentalfloss:
Hey cool, thanks for sharing that! I'll have to test it more myself (like with raw .ARW images, which aren't something the Pixel 2 would produce) and see if it'll handle those the same way as .jpg images.

That's a security message from the bootloader (ABOOT)

You're installing an older firmware over a newer one and it won't let you downgrade bootloader or the ABOOT which is the first partition it tries to flash. I would avoid trying to do it any further cause you might brick your device. Find the latest Odin tar if you can or wait for one to be released if it isn't already public. I think there's also a way to modify the stock tar to remove the modem and aboot image so it only updates the system and recovery which is what you're probably looking to do. :):D:):D

Hi all,

I'm looking for a HDMI key to do mainly the following things :

- play music from my laptop (windows 7), stored on a NAS. Via midows media player, VLC ... It's very easy to manage playlist with specific software audio on PC (sorted by albums, artists, or files ...)

- play music and/or videos from my laptop (windows 7), from youtube, deezer ...

- play photos & videos from my laptop (windows 7), stored on my NAS. Via windows photo viewer, picasa ...

- and incidentally play photos and videos from my phone S7 Edge

- and if possible, have the same image than my laptop : mirror

I would like to do something simple, but wireless. Indeed, I work today with Jack and HDMI cables between my laptop and my Yamaha amplifier ... But not practical.

Do you have an idea of which type of device I need to buy : chromecast, miracast, EZcast, chinese clone like that :

[General Questions and Answers] hyddenblue:
I own an Orange Neva 80(rebranded ZTE Blade v7) and I recently started having some battery problems. Just 2 days ago I was stunned by the fact that it took about 2 hours for my phone to go from 90%+ to 0%, which is an unusually short amount of time. The top part of the back of the phone also seems to heat up pretty easily. I downloaded some battery apps from the store and I noticed that when my battery level is about 90% the app says my battery only stored about 1000mAh, so less than half of its maximum capacity which is 2500mAh. The phone is only 1 year old and I expected the battery to last longer than this. Is replacing the battery the only option or can something be done to save the current one?
[General Questions and Answers] Tiqqy:
- Smartphone batteries are usually designed to last for about an year or year and a half; specifically speaking, that is around 300-500 charging cycles. However, majorly depending on your charging habits, your battery can have more than 300-500 charging cycles lifespan. Meaning, every time you plug in your phone to charge, it uses up a charge cycle.

Answering your question -

Before you purchase a new battery, find out why your battery is draining rapidly (Besides the fact that it is operating passed its charging cycles capacity):

1) Issues and fixes:

https://www.techlicious.com/tip/whats-draining-your-android-battery/

Specifically for your phone: http://www.hardreset.info/devices/o...ks/how-to-save-battery-life-on-android-phone/

2) Try re-calibrating your battery: https://www.androidpit.com/how-to-calibrate-the-battery-on-your-android-device

If everything fails, time to replace the old boy.

As promised before...

K. S. M. Roms would like to announce you guys an pure (non official) Vanilla Android experience for our beloved Axon7.

Our Rom will be customized to your requests to an pure and simple Vanilla experience on our Axon7.

Edit*:

I would like to get your guy's opinion and wishes for that project.....

Apart from this vanilla project, we are still looking for a good and reliable Dev to support our team (in oficial) to bring to you guy's a good and bugfree Oreo experience.

I think we should try to work together and let's move A7 forward [emoji4]

hey [MENTION=7508715]Sunn76[/MENTION] - already read about your announcement on the android-hilfe. great thing! as for me i have to second that already posted root-method thing: let the users decide which root method the want and simple leave it non-rooted. i think this keeps things more common and therefore more user-friendly. i also have to second that already mentioned OMS-request. OMS is simply great and fast. To add my few cents i'd suggest signature spoofing support as well as the option to change the selinux to permissive/enforced. Furthermore i think the more common and clean the ROM is the more people will enjoy it and beeing able to fit it to thier needs. Non-gApps would always be prefered ;)

Looking forward to the release!

[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] rzarectha:
Hello!

I really appreciate your approach in asking us for input on what this ROM could be.

I have a few things that would make it ideal for me:

1. Focus on the sound quality the Axon 7 has to offer, if possible, make it use the dedicated sound DAC

2. Dark Mode for settings menu and notification drop down menu.

3. Pre rooted, I personally prefer Magisk nowadays but maybe an Aroma installer would do the trick where you can select Magisk or SuperSU

I will edit this post if I think of anything else.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sunn76:
The Rom will come without root.

As pure and close to vanilla as possible you can than choose yourself what kind of root or if you want to root it at all.

All I want is:

-Something to differentiate it from the sea of ROMs that promise "useful features and performance" which is probably 90% of the ROMs we have. You install AICP, RR, Nuclea, etc. and they all look the same with more or less options

-If based on MiFavor, black wherever possible (settings for example)

-AK4490 patch already baked in

-SD card storage bug patched up (someone on one of the "negative storage space" Q&A posts mentioned how to fix it

-Kernel support for enforcing viper4arise (This has to be integrated there, right?)

-Always on display that preferredly doesn't destroy your battery life (also, ability to change its clock font would be really nice)

-CPU voltage states optimization. I've sent a PM to Asiier (one of the guys behind AKT Profiles from the OP3) and he told me that the voltages can be optimized via kernel.

IMO mifavor 5 fixed most things that were awful of mifavor 4, for example the power menu is worth something at least, there are QS tiles that don't look half bad, at least there's some blur...

If you look at it from the "chinese copy of iOS" lens then obviously you're gonna think it's crap. But give it a chance. I ended up preferring MiFavor 5.2 to LOS-based ROMs, even after using my Moto G 2 with every custom ROM available until it became a mass of barely connected phone pieces...
