If it's of any interest, I flashed the Code-X kernel with this ROM and the battery life and performance are incredible!!!

I didn't even set any custom settings with the kernel, just flashed it and rebooted.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] dj88:
Great rom! [MENTION=8338700]Shreejoy Dash[/MENTION] Thanks. Only one bug i have faced is FM Radio. It turn on but won't play anything. Can you fix that?
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Shreejoy Dash:
I thought FM radio is not used anymore

So maybe I excluded all the internal files

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] djavo22:
Which app can record 4k video with electronic image stabilization? what is the best, prooven method to record videos with eis. 4k resolution is important to me...not fullhd

I have tried Open camera, (which doesnt have 4k mode when camera2api enabled)

gcam wont record 4k...i have tried min. 50 ports of them from celsoazevedo.com

footej camera zoom in video in 4k mode, i am suspicious about its stabilization

ultracorder has eis...is okay only for slow motion, beacuse focus is awfull

SnapCam HDR....lot of noise

so guys, please advice, prooven method to record 4k with EIS.

PS. I am currently on Havoc Rom...:good:
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Aziziamran:
I don't think A2 can record 4k video with EIS enabled.. Because as far as I know this phone only capable to record 1080p 30fps/60fps with EIS enabled..
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Mr.Nice.ba:
You are not right, when using stock rom without camera2 api enabled, you can use EIS on 4K with Open Camera, and it is really stable... Problem is how to use EIS when camera2 api is enabled, because of that you loose 4K option in open camera. I am using Snap Camera HDR for now, and for good lighting conditions it is more than good 4K +EIS. You just need to turn down sharpness and you will be noise free...
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Aziziamran:
Can you provide me more detail please... Because I just know about EIS on 1080p... By the way I'm on Pixel Experience rom with camera2 api enabled..
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Thuyamo:
Try Cinema Fv-5 app, it can record 4k with EIS. You can use the app without root or camera2 API enabled. You can also control the focus, White balance, exposure, ISO, and some more. Just go into settings (in the app) and click on video icon, then select 'Show extended video resolution'.

Same problem. 47 of 57, but for example for CPUz is 42 of 52. Really strange but obviously the first is right.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Yassgoth:
I think it's about GB vs GiB / MB vs MiB.

GiB = 1073741824 bytes or 230 bytes.

GB = 1000000000 bytes or 109 bytes.

So 56 GB = 52 GiB. Some programs, as shown above, calculate difrently, and doesn't mention about that.

if somebody want to open files in it, you must enter a password first.

is there anywhere a software like this??? or a similar solution?

the only way, that i know, this time, is to create a password-encrypted

This might be a bit low brow for XDA but I'm at my wits end :confused:

I am trying to get YouTube videos in the reddit app to open in YouTube vanced, however not having much luck

I am trying to get YouTube videos in the reddit app to open in YouTube vanced however not having much luck. If I click on an actual url, it takes me to YouTube vanced, but if I click on a posted video, it takes me to YouTube on the internal browser. There I have the option to click on the 3 dot menu to open in my browser but there is no option to open in YouTube vanced.

I have played around with a number of things;

- Official YouTube app has been disabled

- Toggled with the reddit app setting for opening links in the app

- Reinstalled reddit & YouTube vanced apps

- cleared defaults in app settings

- toggled the open url option in app settings for both reddit and YouTube vanced.

Any idea how to fix this?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] mimo2008:
Hi everyone! Ok does anyone use a Samsung Galaxy watch if so can you look and see on s health app see how many steps it says you have taken with the watch how many steps you have taken with the phone and then see how many steps you have taken altogether and see if the watch and phone steps add up to match the steps altogether does. And report back here plz thankyou.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] supersoulfly:
Phone tracks about a 15% higher number.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] mimo2008:
That's strange.

Let me give an example say I done

453 steps on watch

And 224 on phone now when you click all steps that should add both together if I'm right. That makes 677 but for some reason I'm always about 50 to 60 steps short
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Tel864:
I've read that the update that's just come out is supposed to fix a steps problem along with the heart rate monitor and battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] mimo2008:
I think that's for the gear s3 not the galaxy watch.

Ah just seen video on YouTube saying there is an update for the watch so will keep an eye out
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] storm81456:
Not quite. It's not supposed to sum steps, it's more like supposed to try to figure out which steps weren't registered on one device or the other so that you end up with a best guess of total steps. The all devices steps will always be a higher number, it will never be a straight addition of the two. Well, unless say you were only using your phone or only using the watch for hours at a time the entire day..
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Tel864:
I got the update yesterday but have been driving all day so I can't really tell anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] mimo2008:
I'm still waiting for the update hopefully soon i should receive it
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Tel864:
I took mine to the gym today and actually watched my screen while on the track (thankfully it was almost empty so I didn't run over anyone) . It was unbelievably accurate, more than I expected. It was tracking me step for step and everytime I suddenly came to a stop, it would immediately stop counting. I tried all sorts of tests, taking one or two steps, running a few steps, then stopping etc. Not once did I catch it adding steps or not counting.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] tneot01:
Hey all. I am currently using a Galaxy S4 in the US and want to upgrade to the S10+ base storage and RAM. I will soon be going off to college so I plan to keep this phone for at least 4-5 years so I don't spend too much on a new one. I am torn between 3 different models, the Snapdragon, the Exynos Dual-Sim that will be available on Amazon, and the regular Exynos that I can get shipped from my relatives in India. I have a few questions though:

1. If I buy the Exynos models, will I still be able to get One UI 2.0 beta in the US? Since India always gets the beta, will I get it at the same time India does, or do I have to wait till the US beta opens? Will any other US features (except VoLTE and Wifi-Calling) be impacted?

2. I use T-Mobile. I read somewhere that the Exynos 9810 does not support the new 600mhz band for T-Mobile, so will the new one have support or no? This one really isn't that big of a deal just so long as I get LTE.

3. If I buy it from India, will my relatives have to put their SIM in it to activate it (does it have a regional lock)? If so, when I factory reset it, will it revert back to the regional locked state?

4. When will I get software updates? When the rest of the Exynos models get them?

5. What are the advantages and disadvantages of Exynos over Snapdragon besides OEM Unlock?

6. If I buy the Dual Sim model, is there good ROM support for it or only for the Single SIM Exynos?

For me OEM Unlock is a major option because of how long I will keep the phone. Thank you so much for your thoughts!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] mrao:
To the best of my knowledge:

1. Yes. As for US features that depends on whether your carrier supports them on the international model.

2. You need to confirm with T-Mobile. The international model may not support all bands in the US, and vice versa

3. Nope, that shouldn't be a problem.

4. Software updates in the US are pushed through the carrier, whereas international models get them direct from Samsung. So the timeline for both may not be the same

5. Lot more development on XDA for the Exynos models, simply because they have an unlocked bootloader

6. They are basically the same with the exception of the second SIM slot. Almost all ROMs for the single sim variant should work for the dual-sim version too.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Eudeferrer:
Exynos will probably get root and unlocked bootloader. The Snapdragon will be locked down like a puppy. So if you care about root, or development, get the Exynos. If you don't, then the Snapdragon will do.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] varcor:
Based on previous releases you should be able to get an unlocked bootloader on the Snapdragon variant from Hong Kong. Likely less custom ROM's but no issues with battery drain or overheating, plus early benchmarks reflect the Snapdragon out performing the Exynos Chipset.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Kaliaila:

I didn't see any part of that post that dealt with Exynos 9820 that is in the S10.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] varcor:
The Snapdragon 855 is also outperforming the newest Exynos 9820 in benchmark testing, including the CPU's. Likely most users won't be able to notice a difference with the exception of gaming. The Snapdragon looks to be vastly better optimized in this regard. Also, we'll have a better understanding for performance metrics once the chipsets are tweaked for final release.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] varcor:
For myself, unless S10/S10+ prices come in much lower than rumors suggest, these chipset comparisons won't mean much. Rumors suggest the S10+ with 512gb memory and 8gb RAM exceeds $1,400.00 USD. Not a player at that price but if I was, even if the Snapdragon 855 is anywhere close to the Exynos 9820, it would be my choice, particularly after seeing the battery drain and overheating issues associated with the Exynos devices. Sure, they'll always be the Exynos users stating they never experienced any problems however many users are/were affected as noted from postings here on XDA and elsewhere.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Kaliaila:
All of the claims of $1300+ prices are based off of exchange rates for pounds not off of actual US prices. It will be under $1000.

Also, the UK has a 20% VAT which is built into their prices.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] varcor:
:fingers-crossed:

Not according to sources from Techradar and Forbes, $1,340.00 and $1,390.00 USD respectively. It looks as though Samsung is going to reap additional profits via memory upgrades. A difference in price close to $300.00 USD between 128Gb and 512Gb. Surely a big markup considering Samsung is the largest producer of memory chips. Guessing their actual cost difference between the two is less than $50.00. And these prices are for the 4G device. Projected increase for the 5G devices is around $200.00. We'll know for certain in a couple of weeks.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Kaliaila:
The sources for both of those articles are the UK prices I previously mentioned. And again the VAT was not removed. If there is any version of the S10 which will start above $1,000 it will be the Special Edition version as that will be the only one which comes with 5G in addition to it being larger in all areas (6.7 inches, 1TB storage, and 10-12GB of RAM).

Search google for:

Samsung Galaxy Note9 Performance & Battery Showdown: Snapdragon vs Exynos

And read through the AnandTech review.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] force70:
You must be new to samsung devcies since this was the only year that the snap was in some regards superior to the exynos. Typically the exynos trounces the snapdragon performance and battery life other than gpu. Such was the case with the s7, note 7, s8, note 8 etc.

Also the exynos bootloader is unlockable and the snap is not other than the HK and latin America versions. There is very little in the way of development for those 2 variants however.

If you want roms etc exynos is the only way to go.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vaibhavnegi:
Buy Exynos only if you're into custom roms kernels & other mods otherwise you'll be better off with Snapdragon

Many people want to be able to unlock their phone. Plus, Google seems to enjoy killing many apps that give us features that we depend on that are now only available through root.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] danik94:
As a regular user (50-80 chrome tabs, whatsapp, and 1-2 other apps open at all times, no gaming at all) will it make a difference to me if I get Snapdragon or Exynos version? I can get either and cant decide.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] gullyous:
I was going to do the same, but was going to buy from the UK. Now I've heard some conflicting arguments that UK is region locked BNIB. If I ship from Samsung directly to my house in USA I won't be able to use the device is this information correct?

How can I get the Exynos version in the USA without region locked?

FYI on T-Mobile ATM.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] danik94:
I dont think Samsung UK will ship to you in the USA. If you do get a vendor to ship a UK phone to you, from my experience if you contact Samsung with the IMEI and its legit (not blacklisted or anything) they will give you the unlock code within a few days. They can discourage taking a phone out of its sale region but they cant restrict you- I dont think its legal.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] gullyous:
I planned on getting a package forwarding service to ship me the phone to the USA. So I can just call Samsung UK and they will give me the code to region unlock?

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] eyeatoma:
This video is pretty concerning. I'm getting the exynos. Not sure why Samsung is still using two different chipsets. Just creating jealousy amongst users and animosity towards Samsung. Solution is simple. Go with either or. In this case Snapdragon makes more sense. Maybe pair exynos with a different model.

Anyone concerned with this? Doubt it has any affect on real-world usage. It would just be nice to have equal processors for bragging rights.

https://youtu.be/MgRnbm9wrzg
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
The initial reason was the lack of CDMA support on the Exynos chip and the need for that support in the US. Our networks are a mess of abbreviations so because of that radio compatability, Samsung just stayed with Qualcomm for the entire region... MIMO, LTE-U, LAA/LWA, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] danik94:
I get that some people would do that- this is just the reality of my digital life. Organizing that many bookmarks takes a while too. Im just trying to understand if the processor difference is only in theoretical benchmarks or if it will affect the basic users experience in terms of speed or worse heat and battery life.

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 PM ----------

I did it through email and it took a few days. It wont be that quick but I dont see why they wouldnt. Maybe call them and say you already bought it and its on the way and ask if they will be able to unlock.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] YellowGTO:
That funny, your smile emoji is the same as when you hit 100 tabs, the box changes to :D. Anyway, I also have massive amounts of tabs open constantly. It happens because of multitasking. When im reading a site and I see links I would also like to checkout I long press and open them into new tabs. The process is compounding. Once I get to the second page there are usually more links to open and, so on.

Opinion on #5 is snapdragon all the way.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Low_Key_Slaps:
Yeah I too am also familiar with that emoji haha. To be fair I myself used to have a bad habit of never closing my tabs. Not that I needed them all, just was too lazy to sort through the ones I still needed.

I am curious to know how exactly most browsers/android handles an absurd amount of tabs. I remember some of the older tabs get removed from the phones memory, and get reloaded. Of course, more ram probably does make a huge difference with how its handled, but I am curios to know how just how much of a difference is really made, if any at all.

To the OP, I would get the US model man for the best experience. You live here and said you will be using this phone for the next few years, also the Snapdragon is better than the exynos
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jshamlet:
Not quite. The problem is that Qualcomm charges the same price for chip + patent license as they do for the patent license alone. If you don't get the chip, you still "pay" for it regardless. This is what caused the huge schism between Qualcomm and Apple. Apple wanted to roll their own for the US market and got fed up with paying the same price as before. Samsung just rolls with the Snapdragon SoC's in North America and avoids the issue.

While the T-mobile and AT&T phones could use Exynos SoCs, it's probably cheaper to do what they presently do - all NA Samsung devices are electrically identical and can run each other's firmware with zero modification. This means that if they happen to need a few more for one carrier, it isn't that big a deal. They are all the same phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Outbreak444:
While you are correct, the question asked was why Samsung's Exynos chip doesn't support CDMA. Samsung could do that and still offer Snapdragon for the US, or just not offer any version for the US and allow us to purchase models from other countries. In fact, they could bypass Qualcomm's "monopoly" by doing so. It just boils down to the fact that not many carriers support CDMA anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
I doubt either Samsung or Qualcomm are eager to change anything since Samsung makes chips for Qualcomm.
