I was forced to do a factory reset. Phone is now performing at same level under 8.1 as it did under Nougat. 8.0 was so laggy it was barely usable, the Skia setting and wipe cache helped a little, the 8.1 update helped a little, but factory reset put the performance back where it was before.

Any update about this issue with Android 8.1?, the gallery lag from the camera is terrible annoying
[General Topics] mr_rodge:
Hi

Looking for buying advice, criteria as follows:

- Looking to spend as little as possible, but must be improvement over the LG D855/OnePlus One/iPhone 6 we have in the house already.

- Must be Android, as we're Auto users.

- New, it's a gift.

- Camera is absolute priority. Particularly speed for stills.

- ROM available (or OTA stock upgrade) to Nougat/Oreo.

- Min 32GB storage, or smaller and expandable via SD.

- Minimum FHD screen, 5 inch. OLED/HDR would be great but not essential.

- USB Type C would be nice, but not essential.

- Flashable for stable, alternative ROM without bloat, such as Lineage.

- Good VR experience prefereable but again not a priority.

We're currently using Lineage OS ROMS on our Android phones which are snappy, stable, look pretty and ticks all the boxes but the cameras mean we're losing out on great moments. Whole reason for upgrade is that Android Auto is better than Apple CarPlay, but the cameras on our Android phones are pants in comparison to the iPhone 6. They're shocking in low light and to get a sharp picture you need still subjects and a tripod. Whilst the iPhone's shots aren't really any better under those conditions, it's the fact that when the shutter button is pressed, the picture is snapped and there's no lag or blur, regardless of conditions, even with Auto HDR. Whilst low light shots are grainy on it, the subjects are never lost and the memory of the moment isn't ruined!

I've read about how good the pixel is, but it looks out of my price range. I'm thinking about the Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge, with some other ROM on it. What's your thoughts? Camera better than LG's G5/G6? Also not averse to chinese alternatives, as long as the camera is up to scratch and it's ROMmable.

Thanks!

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] dwcasey:
Anyone with US c567 rebrand to either c636 or c432? I'm looking for experiences, feedback. From what I've read of one or two user experiences, no issues except possibly some icon changes for mobile signal.

It seems that those two models consistently receive updates on a semi-regular basis and at this point, I can't really see any downsides to rebranding.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] revjamescarver:
I've done it

I've rebranded to both of those regions, other than having to unlock the bootloader and install the right firmware I haven't had any problems doing it, prefer the European (c432) firmware due to software differences, as far as updates go, I don't think that rebranding will help you get ota updates as those check your imei numbers and sim, so if you have a US (c567) and rebrand to a c432 you still won't get any official updates.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] dwcasey:
Thanks for the last bit of info, I was unaware updates were tied in such a way to IMEI and SIM.

So if I go the rebranding route, once complete, I will have to use FF or FunkyHuawei if I don't want to wait for a regular OTA?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] revjamescarver:
FF

Yeah, you'll have to use one of those, FF will show you the available ROM, but you still might not be able to install it as the installer checks your imei and sim and will check to see if there ROM it's authorized for your device. There it's a "recovery" that you can put on your device that doesn't check however. I hate having to pay (funky Huawei) for something that's free.

Hello!

Like the title says.

I rooted my nvidia shield to be able to change the key layout of my dualshock ps4 controller.

https://xdaforums.com/shi...-root-t3548871

I have done what this guide says but, I encountered problems when trying to do:

6. copy the file back to shield tv:

adb root

adb disable-verity

adb reboot

adb root

adb remount

adb push "layout file" /system/usr/keylayout

It sayd something about me having to be debug user or something like that for adb disable-verity and i cant use adb remount it says I have to be root.

I tried mount -o remount,rw /system but it wouldnt work. Eventually I realised I could boot with TWRP and mount the /system folder from within there and then move my .kl file into the /system/usr/keylayout directory.

However, my nvidia shield wont recognize the files( I am sure i am using the correct vendor and product nr). I even tried replacing my Generic.kl file and changing the keys in there but now my shield wont recognize that file even with originial setup anymore.

The files are created using Pspad. Since there is no built in version of chosing .kl file typ i just append the filename with .kl. Seems to be making them .kl files like they should be.

Anyone knows why this wont work for me?

Thanks for your time!

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] andygold:
I don't have a V30 yet. Saving up for it right now. I do have an audio question though....

For a typical,

non

-Quad-DAC phone, I realize that an aux cable between the car's head unit and the phone's headphone jack should sound better than playing music via Bluetooth due to losses from Bluetooth.

With that said, with the V30, and using an aux cable to the radio's input jack...would enabling the Quad-DAC make any difference to the sound quality? I assume that the DAC and amplifier are designed for headphone use where headphones typically have no external power other than that provided by the signal. But, while using the aux cable and going through a car's amplified radio head unit, would the DAC give you anything above what the radio itself provides? Does the fact that the radio has a powered amp negate what the V30's DAC provides?

On a similar note...my old LG Optimus G Pro (currently my EDC phone) when connected to my car via Bluetooth...when I play a song on my phone, and then play the exact same MP3 file on an iPhone, the iPhone sounds better. Cleaner, clearer, better dynamic range and stereo separation, yet it's the identical MP3 source file. Is that a hardware issue between the 2 phones, or is it a software/firmware issue?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bilbo60:
Good question. I haven't tried it in my vehicle yet. (I use thumb drives to listen to music in my truck.) I will try and report back. You can toggle the DAC on and off.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] astikv:
I'm interested in me too. I listen to music in the car via bluetooth. that is, V30 connected to the car stereo.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Mad Medik:
Tl;DR - aux will usually be better than BT. Make sure your source files are high quality. And lastly, USB transfer or stream will be the best quality in almost all scenerios.

Okay, a couple basics. DAC stands for Digital to Analog Converter. Your car system has a DAC for playing digital audio files. I suspect most decent car audio systems perform better DAC than most cell phones. While it may be better than most cell phones, I doubt our V30's would be better than most new car systems.

With Aux, your phone is doing the DAC and sending an analog signal to the car. Then you car is just amplifying (as per you eq sertings). With BT, your phone sends a digital signal, which is then run through the car DAC system.

Here's where it gets complicated. There are a few different codecs that can be used to compress the transfer, and then quality settings within them. In theory, BT can be a very high quality transfer with near 320kbps sound... BUT ... You get into compatibility issues. This would very likely be why the sound from the iPhone generated playback sounded better than the other phone; it is using a different codec or higher bitrate on compression. My post is already too long but search for BT codecs if you want more detail.

A few tips. Make sure your source file is good!

General convention is that a 128 is comparable to FM radio. 160 or 192 is generally felt to be similar to CD quality.

Check the setting on your music app. In spotify, both streaming and download bitrate settings can be bumped up. Jist be aware of your potential data and storage issues.

Conclusions:

Phone DAC won't come into play for BT transfer. Hopefully your car system has the codec compatibility for high quality transfer. If so, go with that. If not, then AUX will be better.

V30 DAC seems to be high quality, and will function for aux transfers. The car system will then apply analog effects (bass/treble or EQ boosts) during amplification. You will have to play with the settings to see what sounds best to your ears.

A final consideration: Take a look at USB cable connection. A modern car audio system will likely be able to take advantage of digital transfer via USB. This may take the form of seeing your phone as file storage or may allow for your phone to stream music. Either way, assuming a good quality car system, your car can playback your high quality files without any losses that come with BT. If the DAC in your car is better than the V30, then this will be best.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] t1mman:
Audio DAC on the V30 is mostly better than most car stereo converter. Heck, most laptop / desktop PC have lesser DAC than the V30.

BUT, in order to use it rightfully, you need high quality audio files. No matter how good is the DAC, playing 160kbps mp3 won't make a difference... Playing 24bits flac, on the other hand, will show you the difference between them all.

If you want, you can downlaod the sample on this site to test out the result:

http://www.eclassical.com/pages/24-bit-faq.html

That being said, the V30 pluged in the AUX will most likely sound better than mp3, as long as the sourde file are higher in quality.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] deroth:
Some of this stuff has already been mentioned, but here's my experience. I have a rooted V20 (waiting for bootloader unlock for US998 V30 before I buy it) with V4A. I also have a $4k custom audio system in my car with an amp, subwoofer, and aftermarket speakers. I love music and it's the only reason I've bought V20.

If you use BT, V30's DAC won't be used (as has been previously mentioned in this thread). If you use AUX, it will be. In my experience, AUX provides *far* better sound quality than BT. As far as Hi-Fi DAC, I discernibly notice a difference only with lossless audio; not so much with MP3. That difference, however, is enough for me to stick to the LG V* line and not switch to google pixel, which I would have done otherwise.

You should also keep in mind that not all cars will allow you to play audio through USB-C. Digital audio through Android is not nearly as widespread supported with car manufacturers as with iPhones.

If you have a good audio system in your car, you will be happy with the sound quality of your V30 through AUX, much more so than through BT.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] t1mman:
Just for comparaison;

AptX as a bitrate of 352kbps

AptX HD as a bitrate of 576kbps

Mp3 @ 320kbps will stream with AptX with no lost,

Flac @ 16 bits have a bitrate around 900kbps (more or less, depending on many factors, but you can average on this)

Uncompress 16bits @ 44hz stereo is ~1400kbps

The Audio Dac of the V30 can run above this.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] nitramus:
What is your opinion/experience with streaming?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] deroth:
Most online streaming sources utilize same compression as MP3, so I personally don't notice much difference whether HIFI DAC is on or off. I'm sure if I was using something like Tidal for streaming, which steams lossless audio, the difference would be there.

You probably have unsupported magisk module enabled. Reflash stock boot.img and then select "complete uninstall" from Magisk manager, it could help.
