picture quality

i find the quality of pics to be rather bad...also compared with Opera Mini. Is this just me? I tried to find settings for the image quality in opera: config, but was not able to...

anyone knows anything about this? what are the rendering settings good for?

thanks

Andy.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bluemetalaxe:
anyone knows what to do that opera plays sounds for clicking or startup.

I enabeled sounds in config and linked to .mp3 or .wav files for a clicking or startupsound but hear nothing ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisd1a1:
i've said it before...

and i'll say it again,

opera must be loving this.

has anyone else wondered why this is still up??

opera have leaked this so the most critical and knowledgable users in the world test their browser, come clean opera and admit it.

we will still beta test this (and tweak this) thus saving you the time and money.

i would rather work with opera to improve the product rather than everyone think this is a rip.

this browser is 100% better than anything else out there though

ps does anyone have a rip of flashlite3 as yet?:p
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mattie01:
has anyone tried turning on the turbo mode that listed in the user prefs?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bluemetalaxe:
yes everyone
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] simonte:
any way to make this read a GREEK?

thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LordDeath:
Maybe you did not zomm to the full imagesize. If you set the minimum zoom and the maximum zoom both to 100% in the opera:config, you should get always the original size of the pages, if you zoom.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AndyME:
yes, thank you, i did. and also i made sure i went over wifi instead of phone

(does make a difference at least in my case, apparently my phone provider is compressing pics in order to save traffic. but i can still notice diferences, but not in all cases...never mind...
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] tard24:
Has anyone gotten even so much as a security update in recent months? I haven't had an update since March and I'm still on the February security patch. Seems like other flagship phones are at least getting security updates and at least every other month if not even every month for some phones; yet it's been four months for Razer with nothing.
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] DrGonzo6o:
Yep that's the state of things. RP1 hasn't had anything in over a year. It got one major update and nothing since. I'm figuring that's what's going to happen with the RP2. As much as I like these two phones I believe they have been my biggest mobile mistake. Hate the fact that I'm still paying for RP2 through att.
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] blackknightavalon:
I occasionally comment on Min-Liang Tan's unrelated posts about this very issue
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] HomerSp:
Pretty sure they've abandoned it, because they did the exact same thing with the RP1 - release a few minor updates, then one major one, and then it just stopped. I've asked support, but they said that they have no plans on releasing any security updates - I guess they don't care about security at all?
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] cobxaris:
I know they've abandoned their phone production, cancelling the Razer Phone 3 and sending some of their techs to other divisions while firing the rest. Who knows if they'll have a few guys on to keep up with updates and security patches... ??*♂️
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] gboybama:
Razer could have bucked the expectations by providing maybe even 18 months of support for this phone.

If they've chosen not to, they've just validated all the naysayers who warned us not to put our trust in Razer.

I'm still really liking the phone, but... March 2019 security patch isn't looking too good at this point.
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] tjablonowski:
Hers is the response I got from them on the subject of the missing security patches for my 1000$ paperweight. this is after pointing them to the google webpage for the monthly patches that they could not seem to find or were aware of.

Thank you for your humble reply.

I really appreciate that you have provide us the details which we required to investigate further on your inquiry. Thank you once again Thomas.

I have studied on the link which you have provide to us and brought for you the best answer. From the link, i have learned that the Update 9.0 Pie security patch for Razer phone 2 will be last update on February 5, 2019.

Android Pie has optimized the application startup and DEX memory usage. It’s not very easy to measure, but Razer claims about an 11% reduction of rewriting DEX files, which by itself will make the overall system perform better and makes the users feel more comfortable. Our engineer team is working hard together with Google to come out with new update as soon as possible.

For your kind information, Android device and chip set manufacturers may also publish security vulnerability details specific to their products such as Google, Huawei, LG, Motorola, Nokia and Samsung at the moment.

I hope you have understand on my explanation. Feel free to contact us back.

Thank you and have a nice day ahead!

Sincerely,

Ken

[LG G8 Questions & Answers] dgduris:
This has really surprised me as my V20 and V30 both had that option in their excellent camera options menu.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] Shtiff1:
Got it on mine. LG820UM
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] wilpang:
I have it on the US T-Mobile version, which version do you have?
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] lentm:
On the Camera app, swipe the text (Camera, Video) to left and select more, then you will see Panorama.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] DrivenKeys:
We even have 360 pano as well, and you can take a vertical pano with the phone held in landscape.

When you tap "more", all the other modes appear. When you tap the pencil icon, you may rearrange the modes in the sliding menu, as well as in the More menu. I have only 5 sliding menu options, so I can see them all without swiping: Pano, AI Cam, Auto, Night, More. Then when I tap More, I have the manual modes at close reach.

Only two issues bother me here (well, 3 really). First, the More menu can sometimes rearrange itself. No matter how many times I try, it still forces AR Stickers to the closest menu item. This wouldn't be an issue if they'd address my second problem and let us hide modes we'll never use. I hate AR stickers, Food mode, and will likely never use Youtube Live. For me these are just overcrowding the menu and wasting space. My third issue is that they never had to redesign the camera app in the first place. The text-based swipe mode menu is a huge waste of space, and it often thinks fine tuning the sliders in Manual is actually a swipe to the next Mode (unless you're jjjuuuuuuust perfect with thumb placement).

LG should not have jumped on the Apple style bandwagon. If we wanted a Korean Apple, we'd buy Samsung. With how un-Apple the restvof the phone is, and how well-designed the app was before, the choice here is a little baffling.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] U. of Boston:
Instructions, including the in-app help text, are incorrect on panorama. DrivenKeys has it right.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] alexvtr:
In my case (Canadian G8), the panorama and time lapse mode were not installed by default.

When clicking "More", at the top right corner, beside the Pen icon to rearrange the order of the icons, I have a download button.

This brings straight to LG SmartWorld store where pano and time lapse mode are downloadable.

Hope this helps!

Hi

After upgrading my gbwa to last version, ive been temp banned.

So i uninstalled gbwa and installed yowa.

Looks the same but...

I set up a pin code to the app.

Every time i get into a conversation and click back to chat list, i need to type the pin again.

How can i fix that?

How can i change the looks of the pin screen?

Can i restore all my chats from gbwa? I backed them up before uninstalled it. But yowa didnt restore them.

Thanks.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ogkillergreen:
Since I got my first android phone I always loved custom roms. They really changed your phone out of the box. But it seems like with the 6T that has kind of changed.

1.

AOSP Gestures

Compared to OOS, AOSP gestures are terrible in the sense they feel "stiff". OOS gestures are smooth and easy to get accustomed to. Although there are apps to kind of replicate it, on AOSP it still doesn't feel the same. The little things like the animation of the app minimizing when you swipe up to the app switcher make a difference.

2.

Fingerprint Reader

This is a very hit or miss subject with more misses than hits. I guess this can be chalked up to implementation still being fairly new, but I have tried so many roms and the FP reader works well until it doesn't. And when it doesn't work, it is bad. Screen flickering/darkening, random reboot, & a number of other weird glitches have deemed it unstable for me. Of course the alternative is to use a pin or something, but why if it is there?

3.

Nothing "Just Right"

I used to have a Samsung Galaxy and that device had a number of roms for exactly what you wanted. With the 6T it seems like you only have two options. Either you get a stable stripped down rom, that offers nothing special except moving the clock around on the status bar, or you can get a rom w/100+ features and customizations that crashes at least 10 times a day. There doesn't seem to be a rom that has the balance of useful features and stability.

4.

Custom Rom ➝ OOS = WIPE EVERYTHING!

I like trying new roms. Keeping my phone fresh and different is exciting, but it is now more difficult than ever it seems. Going from Rom to Rom is easy, but if I ever want to get back to OOS that usually involves wiping all data or even whipping out the good 'ol MSM tool because something went wrong. This whole new A/B Partion recovery nonsense has put a road block into this. There are 100s of instructions on how to make and restore a nandroid backup, but nobody has been able to do it.

5.

No More Innovation/Uniqueness

It seems like every 6T rom is just a 'copy & paste' job with a different name. Gone are the days of groundbreaking roms and features. Dynamic System Bars, Pie Controls, Theme Engine, etc... these are just a few things that used to be unique and game changers. Now it's just moving icons around and remapping buttons.

I know this will all change, but for now OOS + Root + Magisk is more than enough.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] dagod80:
1. Fluid navigation gestures

2. Hit or miss on OSS

3. AOSIP

4. Reboot recovery... Factory reset.. Flash OOS..flash twrp reboot

5. AOSIP brings stability and android q features.. Kinda still agree with you though

Just my little 2 cents from when I was still rocking the 6t. I have 7pro now but thankfully AOSIP is already there too. But I can only imagine that development here has only dug further and provides an even better experience since I was here last
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] thedrizzle:
Lol. Oos sucks. Try aosip, you won't be disappointed.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] joefloater:
Oos all the way! I have tried most custom roms, and while most are really good, but can't get through a day without jonesing to get back on Oos. I breathe a sigh of relief when I'm back using their gesture nav. We need to find ATL4ANTIS and beg him to build a CATACLYSM rom for the 6t! That rom on the Nexus 5 is still to this day the best custom i have ever used!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] jestyr8:
I have to agree with the OP, I've been flashing ROMs going back to the mytouch 4g and htc hero. Honestly this is the first phone I've owned where I really haven't felt the urge to go beyond root and substratum for more theming options of third party apps. It's nice there are some options out there, but OOS is there first rom I've used that felt mostly complete and not something patched together from bits and pieces. It's fast and smooth and battery is pretty good right out of the box. I keep ending up back on OOS, throwing on few root apps, change up the theme a bit and throw a slightly and I mean slightly better kernel and call it good.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] WillSmith89:
Gotta respect your point of view,nicely written article.

Tho I'm using OmniRom Treskmod at the moment. OOS has also come a long way from what it was during Oreo days and safe to say you can easily live without a custom ROM on a 1+ device. The reason I'm using Treskmod atm because I was bored of OOS UI. Might be switching back to OOS soon
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Locoman_:
Cataclysm rocked. Loved that on my old Nexus 6.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] p51d007:
The main reason I don't root, unlock, custom rom is I'm just too flippin' old and tired at the end of the day to

jack with it anymore. I use to flash all sorts of custom roms, back in the days of my HTC tilt phones, but since

android 4.3, I haven't felt the need to root or custom flash.

Hey, at least we have the ability to do so, but for me, end of the work day and weekend, I rarely touch my phone.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Electric1447:
The main reason I don't switch to a custom rom is AOSP Gestures
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] reppi:
I mostly agree with you! I like flashing ROMs but always come back to oos after a week max.

There are always some hiccups here are there, some are worse than others. Oos is just what I consider as stable.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] pbergonzi:
OOS is a tight, well-designed OS.

For now, OOS, TWRP, and Magisk are sufficient for me.

[MENTION=5466467]ogkillergreen[/MENTION];

Here is my question to you...

What are you looking for as far as unique features.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] jestyr8:
Some of the things I looked for was better battery, lockscreen mods such as lockscreen rotation, changing of lockscreen shortcuts. Bring able to change location of status bar elements. Blurring if background for recents UI, quick settings UI. General ability to customize. Granted OOS doesn't have most of these, but it brings enough to the table that I'm not feeling the urge to go through all the steps needed to get them with a custom ROM. The ROMs I have tried while all good, tend to feel like something is lost in translation. May not be your experience but hey... It's how I feel. Out of all the stock ROMs on all the various flavors of devices I've owned going back to the HTC MyTouch 4G with Sense 1, OOS is the only one that has just enough customisation in it whilst remaining out of my way.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Scott:
I don't necessarily disagree with you. I just wondered what features he was looking for that are not in ROMS now. You gave great examples. Especially the lock screen one, I have not seen that one before.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] kitcostantino:
[MENTION=5466467]ogkillergreen[/MENTION] i couldnt agree more. I laughed at my friend who jumped to One Plus before me when he told me how amazing OOS was. When I got the OP6t, i was blown away at what OP has done. I have been flashing ROMS and mods since the OG Droid Days. Never have I kept a stock rom as my main, not to mention as my preference. On the 6t, while ive tried most roms, its not been worth the trade-offs yet. the clock in status bar on oos bugs the pi$$ out of me. (align right would have been a good option for one plus to put in) but if thats my only gripe in UI, its near perfect *for me*. Every custom rom i tried drank battery compared to OOS. Especially compared to OOS with Omega kernel. my best battery life on an android device ever was with the 5/29 build of omega on stock 9.0.14.

I get it, though. Some people are convinced AOSP-based is always better, more feature laden, and simply faster. I was one of those people. The OP6T has swayed my opinion forever. Stock is no longer a dirty word to me. Especially when coupled with a few magisk modules and Omega kernel.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ogkillergreen:
It's not so much of unique features, it's more of just frustration in seeing the same features on every rom. Before I open a thread for a rom I already know what will be on the features list. You could post a features list from a rom and I would not be able to tell you which rom it's from. I am looking for something that stands out from the rest, but not in a gimmick like way.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 8892904:
BootLeggers has some sick themes and other UI Related stuff up its sleeve it also has Minimal Customization and is Stable. If you want a good Custom ROM I'd recommend BootLeggers. But yeah Stock OOS Beta + Magisk & Subs is enough for me.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] doomwithdon:
Surprised you haven't mentioned loss of Widevine L1 as the number one reason to stick with stock OOS
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lithian42:
I think that is always a good reason to stay stock, but don't you lose that by just unlocking your bootloader?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Well I hat matters if you have a Netflix account. That aside for me at least losing the L1 is Worth it cause on the other hand I'm getting System Wide Dark Mode (via Swift Installer) and Magisk Modules. It's a personal preference really.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Striatum_bdr:
This kind of discussion is most of the time useless because it's a matter of personal choice, some people love Toyota some others prefer GM ... There is always an irrational part in our choices and therefore not accessible to logical thoughts
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yeah but it's still Fun. From reading this thread it's clear that many people a simply don't switch cause of the OOS Gestures. For me that's the least of my worries and I don't care about them.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] GroovyGeek:
Custom ROMs used to be one of the few ways to debloat and unskin the OEM's penchant for over dressing and slowing down their phones. Don't know how other phone makers are nowadays (have been on OP for the last 4 years and the Nexus 6P.for two years before that), but OP mostly seems to leave Android alone, which is good enough for me. I root for one reason alone - to install AdAway. Given how overloaded every website is with ads and trackers I don't think I would ever buy another phone that I am not guaranteed to be able to put an ad blocker on.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] sebastiandg7:
You just said it. OOS has achieved what any other stock ROM has before.

In my experience, after years of ROM flashing since the Samsung Galaxy Ace, I have gone through many custom ROMS, even built a custom ROM using different ports (was some sort of Sony Xperia inside a Moto G. You can take a look - an try it if you still got a Moto G - at it in my signature, just to remember those old breaking ROMs), tried tons of mods, kernels, xposed modules, themes... etc - I was also a heavy Tasker user. Now I got my 1+ 6T five months ago and I feel like Thanos after wiping out half of the universe:

No bugs at all

Great battery consumption

Clean UI

Smooth

A good touch of customization

Nice built-in features I used to add to ROMs (call recording, - now with OOS 9.0.15 - screen recording, pocket mode... can't remeber more now)

****ing stable

As you already said: just works

I don't want to even root it, it is the device who has lasted the most without me voiding it's warranty. The only thing I would probably do after the first year is rooting it for just a few reasons:

Adaway

DriveDroid

Expand Tasker capabilities (and it's plugins)

I don't know if Google has made Android very restrictive or if devs are losing creativity. I certainly agree with the fact that nowadays custom ROMs make you feel more :rolleyes: than :D, as they used to.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] kitcostantino:
One thing i want to point out here is One Plus, unlike most other OEMs, does not void your warranty for BL Unlock. its one of the main reasons, along with the experience of OOS that I have become enthralled with One Plus.

Man, i feel ya there. In time, new features will emerge, but its slow going these days. I was a huge motorola fan for a long time bc of things in the droid maxx days like active display, moto actions, etc. I have a feeling android can and will get better with new features, etc, but AOSP hasnt been my cup of tea since the Nougat days. Everyone has their own taste and preference, which is why android is awesome, but for me, stock OOS with root hits every checkbox i have save little things like the ability to put the dang statusbar clock on the right side. i like it like that, bc then when i have a notification icon in my statusbar, it is more evident. especially considering the no notification light. and the screen flash mods, while functional are not for me. that is the singular tweak for OOS i feel the UI needs. Maybe One Plus does that eventually, but for now, OOS is all i need. That is a first for me. Stock OOS rom is my DD preference.
