[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sisaxe:
One picture from last night. I couldn't disagree more with you. Gcam pic is way better.

It's even more obvious on wide angle cam.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] emcom:
The problem is that the first photo is completely out of focus, so you can't compare it with anything. Second one is not much better, too.

Were they both taken with the wide-angle camera ? If not, then try to catch focus before taking photos.

And I was not talking about such type of photos (night landscape) but photos taken in just worse light conditions (artificial light and indoor photos) where I spotted quite often that small details (like clothes texture) were lost by Gcam but well-visible when using stock cam.

Anyway, I keep both Gcam and stock cam, as stock one gives much better control over manual parameters - Gcam has no chance here. And obviously stock cam loses when it comes to portrait mode which is absent (quite strange, actually?...)
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sisaxe:
No, it's not af problem. I taped to focus at lights in the distance at all of them and got green light confirmation that focus is on the spot, and this is what I got with night mode on. It's was really dark. Here you go, 2 more shots with stock camera and one with gcam. Results are consistantly same.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] emcom:
Bad comparison again. First of all, you are comparing 3.2 MPix photos taken in "night mode" with full-res photo taken with Gcam (which is out of focus due to slight motion blur again).

And I still don't know, is it from wide-angle camera ? If so, then remeber, it has no autofocus. It will always display green confirmation no matter what.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sisaxe:
First post is with normal camera, and second one is with wide. I dont care is it 3.2mpix or full res. I just said that gcam looks way better for me. Here are two pics that I took right now. Lots of different ligts. You tell me which one looks better?
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] emcom:
If you don't care about image resolution but you want to compare images taking their details into account then there is no point to discuss further. It's like you wanted to compare a bike with ferrari.

And if you want me to decide which one looks better in this case, again - think about what's more important for you.

If you want to count hair on your legs, take the left one. (more details, but more luma noise)

If you want smooth looking walls, take the right one. (less details, but less noise)

I don't know what were the lighting conditions so I can't decide about white balance - which one is closer to the reality.

Both pictures are equally good and bad in this case.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sisaxe:
That's ridiculous. I'm comparing 2 camera apps on the same phone. Only thing i care is final results, i dont care what camera do, i dont care what post-production camera does... I care only about final image that i get with both of them. Thing that i care the most in those 2 last shots is details. Blown out shadows and highlights because that's the thing I can't fix or change... white balance is dumbest thing to compare because if you dont like it. Just change it before you take a photo... Or use raw and edit it afterwards.

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

And how you mean more details is on the left one? Look tv or outside the window.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] emcom:
My bad, right one of course. Just swap "left - right" in what I wrote and it will be how it should be.

White balance can be changed exactly the same way like the rest of photo parameters (exposure, ISO...)

What I care is how close is the photo to the real image.

I'll try to prepare my own sample and show what I was actually thinking about. But in a a few hours.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] emcom:
Ok, here is something from me... (see attached files)

Compare how laptop keyboard, Intel sticker and laptop screen look in the photos. Gcam clearly loses here.

(Stock cam photo is rotated, don't know why - but I did not correct it to avoid any change in image quality during jpeg recompression while saving the file - you can rotate it while viewing)
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sisaxe:
I did the same test. Pretty much same results as always. Way more detail on gcam... You be the judge. Still i like it more as it is on gcam
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] emcom:
In the reality, is your computer black or dark blue ? Hard to tell from the photos...

What I wanted to show is that Gcam NOT ALWAYS is better than the stock cam - and looking at my photos you have to agree. Isn't it ?

And I have already seen other situations where it registered more noise in the final photo, mostly because it unnecessarily bumps up colours in uncontrollable way. It's really good piece of software, but just NOT ALWAYS the only one to use. Oh, and not to mention occasional hot pixels in the photos.

For me the biggest con is the total absence of manual mode - which is done really good in stock cam. Long exposure photos from the stock cam look absolutely great. Of course, not much people care about it - and for casual shutterbug Gcam might be enough. Biggest pro is the portrait mode of course.

Thanks for showing your samples - I think everything is clear now.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] KingFatty:
Another problem is you can simply adjust different settings withing Google Camera and get a similar range of different qualities, and that's just within the same app!

So it's not as simple as Gcam vs LG cam. Instead, it's about using the best settings for the situation in your particular app.

If you accidentally use the wrong settings in one app, the picture will look bad. So if you rely on auto mode, maybe the auto mode happened to pick good settings for your situation.

Best way to compare apps would be to make sure the phone setup is the same (use a tripod to avoid shaking camera more or less in each app) and make sure that any settings are not odd or improper for the given situation.

Thi file resolve VoLTE ? i am from Romania on carrier Digi.Mobil and my OnePlus A3000 wont work in VoLTE and VoWiFi
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] MarcoLK:
I don't think so. If your ROM supports VoLTE or VoWIFI then you need a carrier which support this too.

I'm from Germany and I can not use VoLTE or VoWIFI so I can not help you with this.

I remember that some firmware were causing problems with encrypted phone, is still like this?

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] storchp:
To update to the latest LOS 16 nightly (my previous one was from April this year) I had to update the modem firmware. So I downloaded and flashed the 9.0.5 for my OnePlus 3 here (+ Wipe Dalvik).

After the first reboot my unlock PIN didn't work anymore. I found a solution via TWRP to delete some unlock files from /data/system. After that I could unlock again and set a new PIN. So far so good. But the fingerprint sensor doesn't work anymore.

I searched around and found this thread: https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/fingerprint-not-working-atall.1054488/

According to it I should have a system app called "com.fingerprints.service.fingerprint", but that doesn't exist. Also the debug test via *#808# doesn't work (Error: Connection problem or invalid MMI code).

I also tried to downgrade to 9.0.4 according to this: https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/cq623g/oneplus_3_power_button_issue_solved_905_firmware/

But didn't work either. Even more problems (e.g. hanging after unlocking). So I flashed 9.0.5 again.

I don't know if this is a problem of the 9.0.5 modem firmware or the latest LOS 16 nightly. Any hints what else I could try to fix it?

Faced an issue with 9.0.6 for op3, tried flashing 9.0.6 with havoc (pie) and nano gapps gives an error. Error says that gapps cant be installed due to difference in architecture and tells that my device is 'arm' and not 'arm64'.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] CyberCaptainKaz:
Tried clean flashing havoc v2.9 (pie) with fw 9.0.6 and got the 'arm' error.

Steps I did,

Wiped cache, dalvik, data (as you do during for clean flashing a rom)

Installed fw 9.0.6

Installed havoc

Installed gapps and got the error saying that gapps is incompatible and that i had to use the 'arm' varient.

Now i flashed fw 9.0.5

Flashed havoc with nano gapps and magisk successfully.

But the weird thing is that, fw 9.0.6 worked fine with msm xtended 4.0 (Q) and nano gapps.

Gapps used were opengapps.

For pie - 20191029

For Q - 20191209-BETA
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Too much different information: let us leave q alone for now. Let's use filename for exact versions.

Do you say if you flash Stable9.0.6 Firmware+Modem_OnePlus3.zip, havoc 2.9 (btw: which exact version? build or filename) and open_gapps-arm64-9.0-nano-20191029.zip with twrp-3.3.1-0 you get that architecture mismatch error?

But if you flash Stable9.0.5 Firmware+Modem_OnePlus3.zip, havoc 2.9 and open_gapps-arm64-9.0-nano-20191029.zip with twrp-3.3.1-0 it's working flawlessly?

Well i tried to recreate the issue, but for some odd reason i couldn't. This time i didn't get the architecture error and the installation was a success. That's y i didn't reply till now. The rom was Havoc-OS-v2.9-20190913-oneplus3-Official.zip

Try to flash another PIE firmware 9.0.5, 9.0.4, 9.0.3... or even come back to Oreo and start again to compare the behavour in STOCK ROM first.

Do clean flash always WIPE DATA, CACHE, SYSTEM, DALVIK-CACHE and FORMAT DATA and install the "firmware" (As Firmware = I recommend you to install stock OOS ROM in the last step). If you've already read the OP you know the problem jumping from 5.0.8 to 9.0.X

Yes but unfortunately it didn't change anything. Ive almost tried everything possible. I even tried to copy the wifi config files from oos to custom roms which rendered the wifi completely unusable.

It's a really strange issue, I can't rule it out to be a hardware issue as wifi works as intended on all oos versions nor can it be a software issue with the custom roms, because nobody else faces this issue :confused:
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] hellcat50:
but have you tried the "smt download mode" option? The one where you need to restore your efs after flashing? That was the problem for me. I thought i was fine with only using upgrade mode, but smt download mode did the trick

Okay thanks a ton ill try this method. Had a few questions, how did you backup/restore efs partition? The two methods i found are 1) by backing up both the modemst bins using terminal and restoring it later via fastboot or 2) using TWRP to backup and restore efs.

Also is there a specific procedure for stm download mode? I tried searcing for guides but i could only find msm related unbrick methods. Just clicking on verify then starting the tool in stm download mode will do the trick right?

Sorry for OT :silly:
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] hellcat50:
Download the latest unbrick tool for your device here https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3/how-to/op3-collection-unbrick-tools-t3896722

For efs backup it doesn't matter, i used twrp for the instructions.

Here is a instruction i wrote some time ago

1. Download the current msm download tool. 2. start it and click on "verify" 3. check "smt download mode" 4. click on start and for the password use "te123" and don't forget to select your storage size. click on ok. After it's finished (you can see it's finished when the text is green) you can safely hold the power button to reboot 5. boot into oos. 6. unlock your bootloader, let the device wipe itself then reboot to bootloader and flash twrp. with twrp, restore your efs backup. 7. reboot to oos and start "nvbackupui" (use the app "activity launcher" for that). In the app "nvbackupui", first click on "backup..." and then "restore...". 6. reboot into oos and again start "nvbackupui". If there isn't any red text, you are good to go and flash whatever rom you want.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] pratyush28:
Today, I tried this method too (took so long because its my daily driver didn't want to mess it up in this lockdown time but the drops just annoyed me to such an extent that i just didn't care).

Did everything you mentioned above and flashed havoc os unfortunately the wifi drops still persist. Whenever I move away from the router, wifi drops and weirdly enough this happens only on custom roms. If you have any other tips please shoot em right at me.

I used the oos 5.0.8 unbrick tool and restored efs of the same version which i had earlier. NVbackup earlier showed red text but after backup restore it said total 74 and valid 73 (before it was valid 0 in red)

I really appreciate your help mate gives me hope that i can fix this somehow :)

And then make backups of the backups and put it somewhere else, just in case.

Simply flash it from within TWRP. No data will get lost.

But be sure to pick the right version, as there is a one for OP3 and one for OP3T!
