Just did everything, and the phone is still on 9.0.

when i used Odin,added the files, and hit start, it immediately finished in less than a second. should it have taken longer to flash?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
Yes but ima need more information in order to troubleshoot. Odin will give some error response onscreen. I need that info as well as the little red lettering that appeared atop your phone screen [after error] while in Download Mode

[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
Hmm. After you OEM Unlocked & the device reset, did you happen to enable Developer Options & turn on USB Debugging again before starting the flashing process?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prophetless:
Yes. Developer Options were enabled (OEM unlock and USB debugging were located in there). Both were enabled
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:

AP always takes the longest to add into Odin. Not sure if that's normal.

Do i put any file in USERDATA in Odin? I never put any file in there.

also, I'm not sure if I'm exiting Download mode correct or not. I hold volume down and power to exit it.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
All that says is that it's checking the .md5. I need the info it says after you do the flashing process
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prophetless:
That's everything Odin provides me with. Like I said, after i hit Start, it finishes immediately.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
Alright go to each firmware file & delete the .md5 suffix. Each file should end with .tar afterwards. Close & reopen Odin. Load those files to their respective places in Odin & then try flashing again. Be it pass or fail, copy/paste Odin's response here
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
Deleting .md5 from the files will allow then to load automatically in Odin
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prophetless:

I believe you. I dont have my laptop right now so am unable to do a more indepth look. It very well may not be able to port back to Oreo after upgrading to Pie. I have several ideas I could try but I neither have my programs nor laptop to do so. May just be stuck with Pie for a little bit buddy. If battery drainage is your issue, put barely used apps to sleep or disable them, especially the ones you dont use but cant uninstall. Turning on Night Mode also helps your battery & makes for some sick UI

Please read updated post
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Droidriven:
See, not so simple, eh? Downgrading most newer Samsung devices is usually a no-no, it was easier on the older devices.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
Okay see that is something you left out last night bud lol Odin is having trouble connecting to your device properly. Try downloading a different Odin version. Google search Odin for Pie 9.0 & search Odin for Oreo 8.0. Download 1 of each & see if either those work. Odin is a very sensitive type of software.

I'm leaning more towards Odin for Pie as that is your current software. I should've mentioned that last night but it honestly didn't come to thought. I apologize that.

Yes exiting Download Mode can be done by holding Vol+ & Power button simultaneously for 7-10 seconds
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
Ain't sh¡t like how it used to be lol Seems he has a connection issue with that specific version of Odin. I've advised him on what to do now so the outcome is still to come my friend
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Droidriven:
Yeah, I saw the error. They'll get it, even if it comes down to using a modified version of Odin.

Usually, a version of Odin that was released around the same time the device was released(or newer) is best to use.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
We'll help get him there
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Droidriven:
If the Pie bootloader is blocking the flash, porting the system.img from the Oreo firmware over to the Pie firmware might work. Usually, when the bootloader is blocking the downgrade, it's because you are attempting to downgrade the bootloader. That is the purpose of the block, to prevent downgrading the bootloader to a less secure bootloader, but leaving the bootloader alone and downgrading just the system.img "shouldn't" be blocked.

But, while it might successfully flash the Oreo system, the Pie bootloader may very well prevent the Oreo system from booting due to being flagged as "unapproved software", resulting in a bootloop.

But I'm fairly confident that porting Oreo system over to the Pie firmware and getting it to properly flash should be possible, it may require troubleshooting the port a few times to get it to work correctly.

Also, sometimes, user data on the device interferes with Odin, factory reset and wipe cache in recovery solves that, if it is the issue.

Another thing that interferes with Odin is if SmartSwitch(or Kies for older devices) is installed on PC and running in the background.

These possible issues may not apply in this situation though.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
I wouldn't mind wiping that up. It's fairly easy to do but no laptop prevents that right now. If someone were willing to follow instructions, I wouldn't mind teaching em how to do it

Hello, I unlocked my bootloader today. Immediately after flashing the official TWRP, I booted into it through ADB, and flashed DFE. After rebooting, I went back to TWRP, wiped data, cache, dalvik, system and flashed the latest vendor with pixel experience. ROM booted just fine, but after rebooting to TWRP again, it was asking me for password. I can get into TWRP by entering my device pin, and I can get back into the ROM, but during boot it always asks me for my pin. What should I do to fix this? Should I flash DFE with the ROM?

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] lukesellwood2:
So to cut a long story short I already have an S10 plus from Samsung however the battery life was shocking so I sent the device back for a replacement they're being really slow with the replacements so I'm tempted to just request a full refund. I have been looking at the snapdragon S10 plus and how much better it is on both battery and performance and wondering if it's possible for it to work in the UK you can buy it for about 850 quid from certain sites. wanted to know if anyone has any experience with using an American or Chinese snapdragon in the UK and if you still get updates and full connectivity?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Neodrox:
I had the same issues with my phone before, I requested a replacement and now I have not had any issues I tweak the device to my likings and not issues presented. Also one bug that was draining a lot of battery was the VoiP calling bug (whatsapp or facebook call) will activate the proximity sensor and it will prevent the phone to go into deep sleep, only way to solve it was restarting the device, now there is a software update that solves that issue called ASCA.

Also I don't know how you restore your phone, I avoid any backups from smartswitch or google backups, I set up my phone from scratch to prevent any corrupted app settings. This has been my battery usage, before posting I changed the display to FHD+ before it was in WQHD+

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
Hi All

I've been reading around this for a while and can't quite decide what this sensor can do. I appreciate it's a Quad Bayer arrangement which is very effective for grouping pixels together which allows for good performance in low light and produces 12MP images.

I notice the spec sheet says "48 effective pixels" but I understand this means there are a few extra pixels round the edge used to discover brightness etc, or does effective mean not really?

This could be a dense question, but can this sensor produce true 48MP images? I notice the RAW output on the Mi9 is only 12MP so is probably 48MP pixel binned.

What I'm really looking for 48MP RAW. I'm guessing the output would be very soft and unsharp, but then I can do my own post processing to suit my taste.

Edit: The issues seems to be an incorrect implementation of Camera2 Api which reports max resolution of 3000x4000 for the 48MP camera. It's been reported below so if you'd like to see 48MP jpegs and RAW for 3rd party apps, please visit the link and confirm the issue in a post below.

Thanks for reading.....

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] sensationvsgalaxy:
my mi9 hasnt arrived yet, but from what I read, it CAN output 48mp in an manual mode (not auto). Regarding RAW instead of Jpeg: i don't know if stock app can do it at 48mp, but gcam most probably will (at least when the port is finalized). But using 48mp will disable HDR because its somehow Chipset limited.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
Hi Mine has arrived and can confirm the stock camera will take 48MP jpegs. Th RAW output is only 12MP.

But I wonder is it really 48MP? If the sensor is quad bayer, meaning that 4 green pixels are grouped together, then 4 red etc. how can you possibly get full res out of that arrangement?

It looks like this:

View attachment 4733635

Cheers

Steve
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
Well I think I've answered my own question and it seems to be yes; it can output true 48MP images;

If you slip one pixel right and down, you can group pixels into a traditional RGGB Bayer arrangement. Now that's clever!

If you look at the attached image, I've drawn white boxes around each group of 4 pixels, ignoring the 1st row and column. You can see in each box, there is an RGGB combination, so it's job done!

My brain hurts.....

Steve
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Gokh:
It's like a Pentile Amoled so? It's not a real 48mp like a RGB Amoled would be.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
Well I think it's similar as there are twice as many green pixels as red or blue (the same as all Bayer sensors), but I think you can get real 48MP out of it by slipping the matrix by 1 pixel as shown above.

Is that that what you were asking?

Cheers

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
Just a quick update on this.

The Camera2 API is Level 3, but the max photo resolutions of the front and rear cameras are misreported for 3rd party apps. Using Camera2 API Probe from here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.airbeat.device.inspector

Shows that the rear camera is 4000x3000 (12MP) and should be 8000x6000 (48MP). The front camera is reported as 2592x1940 (5MP) and should be 5184x3880 (20MP).

The upshot of this is that 3rd party apps produce 12MP images from the rear camera and 5MP images from the front camera.

I've just unlocked my phone and installed xiaomi.eu rom 9.3.28 from here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi.../files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-WEEKLY-RELEASES/9.3.28/

But no improvement, it's just the same.

I'll report this as a bug and report back. What I'm really looking for is 48MP RAW for 3rd parties.

Wish me luck....

Check datasheet, it's 48Mpix sensor, but won't produce 48Mpix images without array conversion.

Pretty nice article about it:

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
Hi

Thanks yes I did read that article, but think in my 4th post I explained how to get true 48MP from it. I'm at the limits of my knowledge here, so could be very wrong :)

The Sony news release says:

When shooting bright scenes such as daytime outdoors, the built-in, original signal processing function performs array conversion, making it possible to obtain high-definition 48 effective megapixel images in real time

https://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/News/Press/201807/18-060E/index.html

what do you think?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
This article:

https://www.quora.com/Why-aren-t-all-48MP-sensors-born-equal

Compares the IMX586 and the Samsung GM1, both 48MP sensors. It says the difference is that the IMX586 has integrated array conversion and can produce true 48MP images, whereas the GM1 does not and can offer only 12MP pixel binned images.

Sounds promising....
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] brainscollector:
I can only imagine how amazing photos it will be possible to output with Lightroom using 48mpx raws. From what I can read here, it really sounds it will be possible to achieve as hardware-wise everything on paper says it is producing real 48mpx.

I've done a bit more checking on this with Camera2 Test here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.camera2.test

It seems the Camera2 API supports 48MP (8000x6000) jpeg, but only 12MP (4000x3000) RAW. This might explain why some 3rd party apps support 48MP and others only 12MP, depending on whether they use the RAW report or jpeg report to check resolution.

I've attached the output from Camera2 test.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] davfiala:
Check the article I posted here. There will be no real 48MP RAW. After pixel conversion, it's not RAW anymore. Pixel binned 12MP RAW will give you best results.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] picitup:
Yes I read the article, but don't think it's right. I suppose it depends what is meant by array conversion. I can't find a definition of array conversion on the internet, but assume the pixels are mapped using 2 different arrays or lookup tables (LUT).

For low light the 1st LUT would group 4 greens, 4 reds etc to increase capture area. For good lighting, the 2nd LUT would also capture 4 neighbouring pixels, but offset by 1 row and 1 column as I described above capturing RGGB pixels.

Of course, I could be wrong, but I'd like to see evidence that I am so if anybody can prove it either way, that would be helpful.

Has anyone found a data sheet on the sensor yet? I can't find one and Sony haven't been forthcoming.

Cheers
