Pics never look like real life counterpart on the screen, even iPhone. I use my calibrated tv/monitor for that. I do prefer my screens to be calibrated o the D6500 standard as that is most realistic and pleasing to me, even with the warmth and yellowish whites. But everybody's eyes are different as are their screens and preferences. Coming from the LGV20 any screen is an upgrade. Absolute worst screen ever and the bad image retention shows up a year later. That phone's only saving graces was the DAC, reception and swappable battery. The screen was ugly and pictures were only useful for small details, which thank God it had a decent 16MP camera to get those details. Sometimes things are hard to see, dark or too small and camera phones have helped elevator constructors eyes for years.

I do wonder how many people would leave their phone on dynamic/demo/retail mode if screens had not gotten better the last few years. You'd be surprised how many people's living room or even "monitor" to notice just about everything was on default. Try changing to at least movie mode and I get screamed at for messing up their beautiful screen. And the motion modes for fake 120/240hz refresh rates to help blur. I bet there would be lots of phone screens that looked like live soap operas and probably a noticeable black frame or 2 every second. ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] RockStar2005:
I disagree. lol If they don't look like real life, then something ain't right IMO.

Yeah LG's strong suit is def NOT the display and/or camera, but yes the Quad DAC for sure is its best feature. Though my V30's battery life was fantastic, and still to a large degree is. But I can tell it's fading now as I enter my 11th or 12th month with it.

Yeah. lol The Dynamic screen on TVs sux. Way too bright and saturated. I changed my Sony BRAVIA one to I think Standard as Cinema was too dark. And yes, I am an absolute HATER of those "Cinemotion" or "Motion Blur" settings. They are absolutely awful. MAYBE for sports, but for EVERYTHING else, it is painful to watch. I change the setting on the TVs of ppl I know anytime I can. One time I did it at my friend' without asking, and he was like dude change it back (for sports), so I did. LOL I thought I was doing him a favor. Oh well. lol

LG needs to step up their game on their displays and cameras. Their cameras are almost there. They need to stop sourcing cheap screens and get on with it on their OLEDs.

Have you read professional calibrator stories on AVSforum? Good stuff. I am not talking about geek squad or fly by night calibrators. The ones who do it for a living. Some good stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] RockStar2005:
Yeah, but actually I kinda take back what I said about the screen. I think my V30's screen is actually pretty nice.

I've been on there before, yeah.

umm....are we going off topic, sounds to screen, lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Trasselkalle:
Also a Note9 Exynos here, and while it obviously won't beat the nicer portable and stationary dac/amp combos of today, it absolutely crushes my Nuforce HDP from 2011 that I am using at work. I didn't expect that to be honest, despite how old that dac/amp is, as it was very well reviewed by 6moons and others at the time, but it seems time has caught up with it now. This has me starting to re-think running a mobile amp and instead putting the money on a better desktop amp at work, as the extra stuff to carry around isn't worth the hassle as it is now. All my listening has been on Focal Elegia, fwiw, and in brief I'd say that the Note9 has much better instrument representation on piano in particular but also guitars. The Note9 Exynos also has much more texture to the bass (neither more, nor less of it, in level however) compared with my HDP. Given what the phone has aside from the headphone jack and dac/amp, I am glad I didn't go with an LG just for the likely step up in dac/amp. I've never listened to a quad dac LG, but this is still a phone first and to me the LG models just don't cut it for other purposes than (possibly) their dac/amp. The HDP is has certainly been surpassed by more more recent designs, but we are still talking about a dac/amp of about $350 here.

To put it simple, if you aren't enjoying what you are listening to from your Note9 Exynos (and you have quality cans/iems that are reasonably easy to drive; 35 Ohm on my Elegia), it is your music taste that is your problem.

Not great at all

My vivo nex s dac is impressive besides note 9
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] FYL21:
The Nex S uses a custom Cirrus Logic DAC CS43199 while the Note 9 uses CS47L93, but the DAC is jut one part of the story. GSMArena's measurements show the Note 9's as better but then again what you hear may not agree. I use Audio-Technica IM7O as my daily driver and they kinda sound boring. Smooth and warm, but I think they benefitted from the brittle/bright sound of the Xperia Z5. The Takstar Pro 82 was barely loud enough on Z5 but still requires very high volumes on the Note 9.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] FYL21:
Soomal's Exynos Note 9 review has been translated but has some very odd results. Oddly they made no attempt to identify the DAC and just said it was unknown. It mainly measured the LDAC of the phone and while the measurements seem far better (except THD), they say the headphone jack output is better on Snapdragon S9. (Please look at the original Chinese article - the translated article is missing the headphone output measurements!)

http://eng.soomal.com/edoc/10100000286.htm
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] high_voltage:
The DAC/AMP are only part of the story. Headphones and how their tuning pairs with the given DAC can lead to massive difference. We all have our subjective preferences about sound... some like a "critical" neutral one, some more warmth, some more bass and so on. Saying just by hearing and in most cases with only a given pair of headphones is nothing more than subjective opinion for the sound with that exact headphones on that DAC/AMP and even software tuning (samsung do their thing, I personally use poweramp to bypass that thing and transfer directly to the DAC. Samsung up/downscale to 48KHz, I prefer the native 44.1KHz of *most, have also flac" my recordings. They use X resampler, I use SOX when resampling is needed and so on). The note 9 DAC is great for a phone and the little objective measurements that was taken states it, sadly nowdays as most phones don't even have 3.5mm jack - less and less audio reviews, especially serious and deep ones, are created.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] lbarouf:
If it's still relevant (I know the thread is getting old), but on my Qualcomm SnapDragon 845 based N9, I use the output in a separate DAC. It's a XDuoo and it drives my Beyerdynamic DT 990. @ 600Ω, it needs an AMP to drive them. While ALAC/FLAC playback is great, I really wanted to go for DSD files, but frankly it's unrealistic. A good library of 32 bit/384 kHz FLAC files and a player that you like, should provide excellent playback. I was impressed by the speakers on the device, playing back a hand made recording of a concert. Professional recording playing back on a better DAC would also help. The built-in DAC is good, it's nothing to shy away from in my opinion. To get the definition, you need drive, hence why I chose a combination of an external AMP/DAC with a set of cans I like. In terms of portability, you get a very decent setup for the price. Won't beat my quad setup in my study, but that was not the point from the beginning. Happy listening.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] koragg97:
Hey everyone, I'll buy an Exynos Note9 in some months but would like to know if I would notice any headphone difference between the Exynos Note9 and my current audio setup which is the following:

Viper4Android Snapdragon Galaxy S5

- Playback Gain Control - Extreme, Max Gain: Inf, Max Output: 0db

- FIREqualizer - Bass Booster profile active

- Headphone Surround+ - Effect Level: 2

- ViPER Bass - Bass Mode: Natural Bass, Bass Frequency: 40HZ, Bass Boost: 6.0db

I'm using a pair of JBL TUNE110 now. Will either keep them on the Note9 or use its AKG ones instead (if they're better than the JBL).

I don't want to root my Note9 (first android I won't root) but am hoping the earphones audio quality would at least be as good as I now have thanks to V4A. The N9 has Dolby after all.

Any input is appreciated :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
the American note 9 cant be rooted. so first step is u should be tring to get a rootable international version before even thinking if using viper.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] koragg97:
I don't want to use Viper, that's why I'm asking if the stock quality is good. Plus the Exynos is the international so no problem if I ever do decide to root it ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
exynos dac isint bad in general and compared to snapdragon, exynos' is better. but i have tinnitus in one ear so i might not be the best person to ask regarding personal experiance/perception of sound.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] koragg97:
thanks, I'll share my experience too when i get the phone ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
I was kidding with the "what?"

I have tinnitus too, and I wear an amazing set of buds for quite a few hrs a day with this device. My higher bit-rate flac files sound pretty good on the Note9.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
does yours sound like an old crt tv left on mute?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
I wish it was mute. It sound like white noise, which is what we'd hear on a channel with no signal.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
well mute meaning no sound from the speakers just the hissing of the cathode ray rube but times 10. anyways tinnitus sucks balls. hard.

I too have a problem in enabling of camera 2 API with adv

I have enabled usb debugging

I have installed latest drivers from device manager

After I type the command to fastboot camera 2 API it shows waiting for device

I tried this after the October Google security update which I got today.

Please provide a solution if present

Thank you

Now I have enabled cam 2 API

But slow motion is not working with Google camera.should I do anything?

I still don't get it, what do you mean by manually updating the driver? Do you use the Search automatically for updated driver software or do you use the Browse my computer for driver software ?

The best oreo ROM. Better than every other ROM. Played pubg. Volte working smoothly. Installed Motorola cam from Google play store. We can use 720p 60fps. But cannot store photos to SD card. Mobile broadcast are annoying. I didn't root the device. All the payment apps works perfectly. IRCTC app is not working. I am getting only 2 hours screen on time.(JIO 4G). Thanks for the awesome ROM ?

Best custom OS but not stable

This is the best custom OS I used on Moto, but it is not stable enough. Sometime reject the call by own and keep the phone in DND mode, enable GPS etc. Once this is fixed I want to use the OS again.

2nd Derp is a custom kernel which can be flashed on any rom.

3rd Mi A2 camera is also a flashable zip.

If you have something new to offer then I welcome you else do not waste your and our time in building using same sources, just to add two flashable zips.

Hope you understand what I'm saying.

maybe RR is slow down but device tree is changed. and i use a different TC also, and i did some other minor changes that I consider less important to share with final users because they don't care

Anyway as I said it's my personal private build I wanted to share with the community. If no one cares about it i will delete this project. No problem at all :good:

There is nothing wrong with having unofficial builds. There are quite a number of unofficial builds of RR on mido, so why not Whyred?

You guys should please let the OP be. He hasn't done anything wrong.

I personally welcome the idea of having unofficial build of RR. On this unofficial RR, VoLTE works for me immediately after flashing the ROM, without the need to enable VoLTE via build.prop or via VoLTE enabler magisk module. But on the official version, I always have to enable VoLTE via build.prop or VoLTE enabler magisk module.

OP, please, keep the good work going. I'm currently using your ROM and I'm enjoying it. OP, do not be deterred or discouraged by the negative comments on this thread.

Oh, it helps read text when you are walking and using the phone or when you are in a bus/train. it will keep moving the screen with the gyroscope/accelerometer to smooth out the shaking of the screen like how optical image stabilization works while recording video.

2nd Derp is a custom kernel which can be flashed on any rom.

3rd Mi A2 camera is also a flashable zip.

Then what makes this look different?

Please op dont waste your time for useless things
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Kapiljhajhria:
1. official build has nothing to do with this, this reason is not a reason.

2. tell that to every ROM dev who is including custom kernel. why do they do it if it can just be flashed?

3. again ask the same question to every dev why are they including something which can be flashed with a zip?

RR includes a lot of stuff that can be replaced by some app or some zip.

internet speed meter? app can do it

gestures? app can do it.

i can go on and on. there are countless stuff that can either be done by some app, mod or zip. there would be no more custom ROMs if we start thinking like that. xposed can do so much stuff. maybe not for oreo but does that mean people on previous android version should just use xposed framework and we should get rid of all custom roms?

RR pretty much has every feature.. we should close the threads of all other ROMs as well. why bother when RR already has those features.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] dustmalik:
