[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
FYI indoors is low light and that scene is as bright maybe a little more. But the point is in such a situation anything from the S7 on up is fine. With LG's G4 and upwards. That is perspective. Comparison. Not just seeing something alone and imagining how much better it must be which is hype

His lens is clean enough for the purpose. Its called micro fiber, you should try it some time.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] cpufrost:
I'm not saying it's not fine, I'm saying the S9+ is demonstrably superior to both, enough to warrant purchasing even if you own the 8+ based on the camera alone. And indoor lighting certainly can vary from overly bright or totally dark. ;)

There is no imagining anything here. I own the devices and can clearly see the differences in processing both on stills and video.

Additionally, if I can easily see artifacts produced by a FOD covered screen, it's definitely NOT clean enough! Microfiber is nice and soft and won't scratch delicate surfaces/coatings however if it's not clean it's not going to produce a clean surface. A lens pen will. They are cheap and no one that's even a bit serious about photography shouldn't have one!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
Which lenspen do you use with your phone ?

https://www.amazon.com/Lenspen-NMCP-1-LensPen-MicroPro/dp/B007G620ZE

or

https://www.amazon.com/LensPen-MBK-1-Camera-Cleaning-Kit/dp/B0010HAAIO

hopefully these aren't knockoffs with pads that come off after a few uses

Never heard of these products in mobile camera space.

How do you tell its clean, eyeball it at an angle like with any lens.

You're saying a lens pen will do better than microfiber. Well, i've ordered the first one since it works out to a quarter of the price of the second on amazon India and has a pad small enough to fit.

Hard to tell what coatings these phone camera lenses have, i'd imagine something that makes them resistant to scratching. Whether a lens pen will be safe to use in that case
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] cpufrost:
Yes there are knockoffs but the lens pen brand, Nikon, etc. are OK.

The smaller pads work best but a 10mm pad still works. Use the brush first to remove loose dust and then use the pad.

I usually swipe across a few times.

You will know when it's "optically clean" when you can point the camera at a bright, pinpoint source of light (streetlight at night, etc.) and there's no halo or line shaped artifacts. The pens are quite gentle as they are designed for cleaning optics with AR coatings which are much more sensitive than the outer glass cover. If you look at the camera lens on a phone at a slight angle you will notice a purple looking color. That's the coating on the lens. Fortunately, this is protected with a window.

And this is why I use a UV filter on my expensive Nikor |N| and Canon L glass because a $30 filter is much cheaper than repairs that can cost $1000 or more!

The word "Locker" to the right of Download is now a link to the Locker Folder where you can find past versions (In the future) and testing versions. Feel free to leave a review of "test 27.wav"!
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Locker ID version has been updated to test 37. Go check it out!
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
I'll upload Locker ID Test 38 soon.
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Locker Beta link updated with Test 41. Test 41 is a stereo IRS and should have a bit of a surround effect on the bass. Should also have better sounding bass. Overall 26db volume boost.
[Android Software Development] RSDamasceno:
Wow, that's amazing.

I like the deep feeling of the surround and the balance between clarity and bass (without leaving aside the middle, of course).

I'm testing and I'm loving it.

I've been looking for an IRS surround since my favorite Dolby Surround & Pro Logic & Lfe.irs stopped working on the latest versions of Android.

The latest version comes close to what I want, except for the serious that is "bursting" in my home theater.

You're in the way of happiness, man! Lol

I'll keep my eyes stuck here.
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Your little review just made my day! :D

Your the first person other than me to tell me how it sounds! Just one question. Was the "Bursting" my IRS or the Dolby IRS?
[Android Software Development] RSDamasceno:
Oh, sorry if sometimes I can not make myself understood. For me, who is not native to the English language and with limited vocabulary, it is difficult to explain subjective things like the sound sensation, but I will try to find a way to clarify things. I will rely on a good understanding and a good translation of Google Translate.

I tested all the versions that you made available so far and the one I liked the most was the last one (test 41 Stereo.wav), but in my HT the bass became very "deep" and in the parts that the lower frequencies predominate there is an effect like if the middle and the highs disappeared. I tested with my favorite musical styles, which by themselves already have many bass but require clarity too (Soul, Black, Hip-hop, etc). Perhaps because of the style I usually listen to I prefer the surround effects, which gives me a good sense of depth coupled with a balanced bass and clarity.

I hope I have contributed and managed to be clear!

Keep up your work, dude. It really is very good!
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
If the the mids and highs are disappearing when there is bass then you should set your output gain lower. Thank you for responding!
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
This version was made based on your input... https://www.mediafire.com/file/f14fk4zyt2c8ppb/test+42+Stereo.wav

This was also my first export at 32bit audio. Not sure how needed 16bit is.
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Locker ID/Beta link has been updated to "test 42 Stereo"! Locker beta no longer needs you to set the Output Gain down 26db. Enjoy the best of audio!
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
I think Locker test 42 stereo is ready to be a release. Welcome to Locker v1.1!
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Locker: Oracle test 44 Stereo is in testing. Once I can verify volume I'm going to set it to release.

Forgive my naivete, but where do you get the IRS files to incorporate into v4a? Or are the .wav files it?

This is my first foray into using IRs.

Thank you
[Android Software Development] BlazeMaster64:

What do you mean? Do I need to turn down the bass? Is the mids or treble not clear enough?
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Think I might go and create a new locker, locker surround, and Locker Oracle. Maybe even revise the names to something more understandable.
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
Would it be possible, and i'd donate gladly for this, if you could make a IRS file for car audio?

I have a 8-speaker setup including a shelf subwoofer all kicker in my car and finding a good IRS file for it is rough.

i have viper4android installed on the headunit, using stock amp.

---------- Post added at 07:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05 AM ----------

also i'm confused, none of the IRS' are in .irs ?

Are these usable in V4a?
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Yes they are compatible with v4a. Also can I have some speaker model numbers?
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
Hi, how do i make the .wav files you posted compatible with v4a? because IRS files are supposed to be in .irs format...

Here are the model #'s to my speakers

They are all kickers.

Kicker CS354 3.5-Inch 90W 2 Way Coaxial Speakers (Pair)

Kicker 40CS44 4-Inch 150W 2 Way Coaxial Speakers (Pair)

Kicker 40CS654 6.5 inch 2-Way Speakers

Kicker 40CWD104 CompD Series 10 inch Subwoofer Dual 4 Ohm
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Put the .wav in the impulse folder and use them like you would any .irs. Also I'm going to prepare a few impulses so I can figure out what kind of treble and bass you want/need. If you want them in .irs form tho I can do that.
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
yes if it can be in .irs format

I like clear vocals, i like clear instrumentals and to hear the music. I prefer my bass be routed only to my subwoofer but i know that might be impossible.

If it is impossible and the bass will be coming through all speakers then I need the bass to allow for clarity as well.. sometimes with too much bass i get distortion
[Android Software Development] Caboosium:
Before I start I would just like to say I don't have your system right in front of me so it might take a bit of tweaking and feedback. Anyway here are some .irs you can try that I just cooked up. None have locker in them because of how fast I made them.

https://www.mediafire.com/folder/2k9qdvbgbmpqc/

Not sure if I over did the bass but I cant wait to hear back.
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
will test it, gimme until friday plz (don't have car until friday)

Thank you, will report back
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
thanks i tried these out.. it's not loud enough possibly because the bass is taking over the speakers in the doors ,
[Android Software Development] MeetFace:
Caboose, my man, I'd be interested in testing some .irs files as well. I feel like the sound quality in my truck is such a moving Target. I know I can get really good sound, but after every ROM flash, and install of v4a it seems like I can never get back to that perfect setup. I'd say I've only ever had it once over the 4 years and 3 different phones I've owned.

Here's my hardware:

- pixel 3XL

- Pioneer AVH-2330NEX

- infinity Kappa Component with separate tweeters up front

- Infinity Kappa Coax in back

- Sundown SD10 D3 Sub 10" (high fidelity)

- speakers and sub on different amps

I typically enjoy a warm, livley, smooth sound sig, I listen to a bit of EDM, so plentiful bass is my fav. I listen to a wide variety of other things as well, but EDM is usually what I use to tune v4a, usually some Conro, and then some The Midnight to make sure the kick drum is giving that palpable lunch...hits you in the chest. I don't like bass that rattles the car, I like it tight and controlled, but also smooth and plentiful without it swallowing the other channels, which is why I chose the sub I did, instead of 2 cheaper subs that would output quantity.

I do get a bit of fatigue if I listen to music after enabling "crystalizers" so I will typically EQ down the highest frequency, on my HU it's 12.5K, 13 stage EQ, 50-12.5K are my options.

I also sometimes struggle with profiles that yield a "wall of sound", which can be frustrating since I know my equipment is capable of producing accurately a wide gamut of sound.

I don't fully understand all the settings in v4a, I find that the Viper Bass on Natural has been best, probably Natural on Clarity too. I get mixed results with Dynamic System, it feels like it makes the lows lurch a bit depending on some of the setups I have, but on others it seems to wake the sound signature up and make it more enjoyable.

Anyways, if you're willing I'd love your help and would gladly make a donation.

Thanks!

Hi !

I've just flashed the phone using the last OB firmware+modem from https://jamal2367.com/downloads/?dir=OnePlus 3/Firmware + Modems/Android 8.0.0/Open Beta and now the phone can't boot !

There's no reaction when I press the ON button !

Is it a brick ?

Thx for helping
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] theduke7:
3T is on OB23 not 33 , 33 is for OP3 not 3T...that's why.

now i don't think wrong firmware would cause a hard brick, but if you're getting no respond what so ever when holding the power button, it's concerning , try to hold it for longer (10-20 secs)...

also try power+vol up or down for also 10 sec or so, and try connecting to a PC, and see , and what happens when connecting to dash charger!!!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] daninantro:
Why did you flash the only the firmware? If you want OB23 then flash the complete ROM zip and not the firmware zip. As said above, you need OB23 for OP3T.

I would like to use my phone (Moto Z2 Play, running Android 7.1.1) as a hotspot for my Kindle 8th Generation, which has WiFi but not cellular access. I can connect the Kindle to my home WiFi, and I have successfully used the phone as a hotspot with a WiFi-only Android tablet. I have added the Kindle's MAC address as an authorized device for the hotspot. However, if I try to connect the Kindle to the phone hotspot, the MAC address is listed for about 20 seconds as a connected device, with an IP address of 0.0.0.0, then the Kindle times out and drops the connection attempt.

I suspect the DHCP server handshake isn't working correctly, due to differences in how DHCP was implemented. Both devices work separately, but not together. Does anyone know a work-around?
