[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] ceciliahey:
This thread has been created for everyone to talk about View20's camera.

Photos, reviews, news links and any questions can be posted here.

Here're some specs it has:

dual rear cameras:

48MP, AI Ultra Clarity, f/1.8 aperture, the 1/2-inch Sony IMX586 sensor, TOF 3D camera, AIS Super Night Shot

front camera:

25MP, AI feature, f/2.0

Now, not much info shows the actual performance of View20's camera.

Am I the only one who wanna see the reviews of such a powerful camera?
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 8892904:
You're not the only one. From what I've heard it's the first 48MP camera and also the V20 has the in display Hole Camera. Would like to see how that affects photo quality. And, you know, when you're using the phone generally like watching YouTube how does that work. I guess with the Front camera the light will be an issue. While reading the specs, I read about this super night mode? How does that work? And can it match up to the current best Night Sight Pixel 3? And what is a 3D camera?

Here're some interesting posters I found on Honor FB.

These may tell the ability of 48mp camera. Zoom in XX times but still can see the detail clear.

I didn't find any video that shows the camera performance. I'll wait and see.

I'm really excited as this is the first Honor phone to use a Sony's flagship sensor.
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] DGB100:
Has the phone a 4K 60FPS camera or 4K 30FPS? I'm taking because I always read 4K 30FPS but in YouTube are some samples which show 4K 60FPS. Maybe I want to buy this phone?

Regards

[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] flamery:
Just an FYI, when the phone is on 48MP mode, you cannot use the zoom function, zoom is only available at lower resolutions.
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
All the sites say 4K@30 FPS. I guess we'll have to wait and see, I'll ask a friend who's getting it soon after its global launch and reply back
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] XTutorials:
Funny to see that the sensor size is smaller than the P20 and Mate 20's Pros sensors. Even if you have more megapixels the sensor size does matter a lot for photography.
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
Of course, you can't compare sony or a whatever camera sensor Honor uses for their devices with Leica's custom fine tuned sensors.
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] ninalzc:

If Honor really did have a better camera than the 3-month old Mate 20 Pro ppl are gonna be so pissed off...... It's like a Toyota getting more premium parts and better technology than a Lexus that was announced at the same time :laugh:
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
Exactly, but to see an improvement in sensor selection (from an unknown one to a Sony flagship sensor) it's great.

I'm happy they've made this choice.
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 8892904:
So. Does the camera hole get in the way when you're watching videos or playing games. And what about the light exposure? Does enough light enter the camera for good shoots particularly at night. Lastly, how's the overall performance of the Kirin 980?

[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] inserterikhere:
So development for root on other models seems to be slow, because of this, I wanted to start this thread in where we can possibly get developers that have come up with root methods for other LG phones in the past. Maybe we can start up a bounty thread or even donate directly to a developer to get them a G7 who is interested in working on this phone (just like when we donated to Cstark27 for GCAM development on our phones). What does everyone else think? Hopefully we can get some developers on board!

Personally, I have a G710PM (Sprint Model) and would test out methods if a developer has one, but if it has the chance to brick my phone I would back down as this is my only phone and can't risk that.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] Joe199799:
Development is slow give it time there's multiple devs working on everything behind the scenes, believe me I want nothing more than to root this thing (I'm carrying around a rooted phone along with my G7 just for a few things) but I'm being patient and optimistic. It will get here eventually
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] inserterikhere:

(Check The Video What is that Laser Light Actived On your LG G7 Frontal Glass)

Hello everybody!

I am a person who all the time is looking for how to be more efficient with the battery of your phone I really like to disable GPS and disable the most things you can do and I just bought this LG G7 ThinkYou and I just realize that there is a laser invisible light powered on all the time on your frontal glass of your LGg7 check the video please:

note: THIS LASER LIGHT IS ONLY NOTICIABLE WHEN YOU SEE IT THROUGHT A CAMERA

VIDEO (YOUTUBE): watch?v=HAWa7vrp0Bk

And as you know I am caring if would that consume my battery and how to disable it (1), would that damage my eye vision (2), maybe it will finish life time soon because its all time on (3), what is that used for (4) my others mobiles don't have that (Galaxy Nexus, Sony Z5).

That should be the proximity sensor that checks if the phone is in a pocket so I can't disable the screen off gestures.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Siley:
Yes, it's a proximity sensor, and it's important against unwanted control and activation of the display during calls or if is in pocket. It's an IR LED that detect the distance to +-5cm. Battery consumption is basically zero. About 10mA thanks to IR. And lifetime is hundreds thousand hours.

On a similar principle works TV control remote (you can see light with camera too if you press button) so it's safe to live.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RO1P8jGYU78 more info about proximity.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] sandronejm:
Oh, I see. When it is in my pocket it should keep unlocked right? Currently I did disable this resource and it keeps flashing for what kind of proximity reason?

Hey I think its about the frontal camera maybe?

Yeah it is similar to the remote control of my TV launching laser when I press a button.

I notice when the back camera is recording also there is a laser light on the back glass.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Siley:
No, its should be locked. Simple test: cover sensor with finger and do knock knock wake up. Display must stay off.

Laser on Back side Is focus for camera.

For after a intense work for a month,

But after 3-4 second it starts showing 'can't connect to camera's.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] matekhr:
Hello,

is there any option or patch to enable face unlock regardless of the region choosen in settings?

I own Mix 3 which originally came with global stable 10.0.11.0 (PEEMIFH) ROM. Face unlock is disabled for my region, but, as almost everyone here knows, it's easy to bypass the restiction by choosing some other region. But in that case some other region-specific apps (bloatware) are also installed. The closest region that enables face unlock without other bloatware is UK (!!) in my case.

Digging around menus I also found that for India or Hong Kong (I'm not sure) as choosen region, there's an option "wallpaper carrousel" enabled, what could be nice to have... Maybe there are other region-specific apps which could be usefull in other regions... BTW, what criteria are used to enable/disable some options for different regions?

Or to enable google assistant in English even though other language is choosen? And enable to start it using AI-key?

So, the idea is to create an app or patch which could enable or disable restricted options regardless of the region the phone is used. Or something like that already exist?

(sorry for the long post)

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Ofuroski:
So I was flashing my device to the December update on my unlocked bootloader Pixel 3. Everything seemed to work fine and it loaded after the flash. Went through the startup options and reset the phone. Now I can only turn it on by holding down power and Volume Down to load in Fastboot Mode. When I do it gives me "Device state: error!" (error is in red).

When I open command prompt and type fastboot flashing unlock it tells me:

FAILED (remote: 'Error getting device locked state No Response') after 9 seconds.

Any advice on how to get this back up and running? I've done some google searches but haven't found this error message. Thanks in advance!!
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] boostedduece:
First thing to try is flash factory image with flash-all, and then start over. You could try and remove -w from flash-all script to try first, so it doesn't wipe the phone.

Getting to bootloader is always a good sign at least.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Homeboy76:
When you load fastboot mode what is the 'device state'?

what version of SDK Platform-tools is on your computer?

It should be r28.0.1

Did you open the Command Prompt in the Platform-tools folder?

[Guide] Pixel 3 XL Android 9.0 (Pie) Unlock/Root/Install Images/Kernels/Recovery + December 2018 Security Patch
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] jd1639:
Make sure you all have the latest sdk platform tools, r28. Looking at your posts here it looks like that is the problem. And to op, once the bootloader is unlocked it'll stay that way unless you specifically lock it so there's no need to try again. But, once you're in the bootloader use the command fastboot devices. Does it return a serial number or just hang like when you tried to unlock again. If it just hangs there's either a problem with your fastboot drivers or try different cables and USB ports.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Ofuroski:
Yes, I'm in the powershell in the folder and have the latest SDK. As stated, when I boot up into Fastboot mode, it gives device state as "error!" in red lettering like it's unable to determine if it's locked or not. It does not say locked or unlocked.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Ofuroski:
When I type adb devices it says list of devices and is blank. However if I type commands such as flash-all it will recognize the device and attempt to flash (although it fails as seen above) since it gets hung up on not being able to determine the locked state. When doing this, it does show a serial number. Any other ideas?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] jd1639:
If you're booted into the bootloader adb doesn't work. It's only for when you're in system or recovery. Fastboot is what you need when booted into the bootloader. I'm sure, based on the flash-all working, that if you type fastboot devices when booted into the bootloader you'll get yet serial number returned.

Have you tried to flash only the bootloader image to both slots?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Ofuroski:
Yes, you are 100% correct. When I type fastboot devices the serial does appear. However, this still does not help me with the "device state: error!" message. The only thing I've flashed was the December update, so I'm not sure what you mean by flashing only the bootloader image to both slots.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] jd1639:
If you extract the factory image you'll find a bootloader-blueline- image file. You would use

fastboot flash bootloader --slot all bootloader.img (where bootloader is the full name of the file)

Edit, sorry you have the XL so it would be bootloader-crosshatch-
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Ofuroski:
Right. I tried that now and it gives me the same.

Sending 'bootloader_a' (8489 KB) OKAY

Writing 'bootloader_a' FAILED (remote: 'error getting device locked state No Response')

Finished.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] jd1639:
Then something is probably wrong with your device. But try one last thing, booted into the bootloader try

fastboot flashing unlock_critical

This shouldn't make any difference but who knows. It'll wipe the device too so plan for that.
