Any Idea why the video resolution can't be set higher than 1080p?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] basmeuter:
Nope, no idea. But I think for video the stock LG cam is superior right ? [MENTION=699611]Highlander0681[/MENTION]
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Formless:
Hi

Have you ever compared manual video with high bitrate selected to the Pitbull Gcam?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AsItLies:
No, I have not, Video of the stock camera does a great job so I don't even consider using anything else.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] 433Mhz:
Stock camera is good enough but it's far from perfect. The colors are overblown. It often underexposes shots, especially when there is high dynamic range. And it lacks details in low light shots.

Especially videos in low light are bad, they're too dark in auto mode. You can use manual mode but then you need to adjust brightness manually which isn't ideal in many situations.

Gcam on the other hand is also far from perfect and all ports seem to have some issues. It's too unreliable when it comes to pulling out your phone and just taking a quick snap. HDR and Nightsight takes too long and while it often delivers better results than stock, it sometimes delivers terrible pictures.

Right now I use both and both don't deliver satisfactory results. It's a shame really, out of all LG devices since 2017 the V40 is the only one with hardly any Gcam support unless you root and install that fix (and loose warranty).
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AsItLies:
Well, I have no concern about voiding warranty, the phone can always be re-locked and lgup to open stock if a return is actually needed.

I"ve found that with the 'buffer fix' applied, there are certainly some gcam ports (especially PitBull) that do a great job, they do good nightsight shots, astro shots, etc. Can use all 3 back cams also.

I personally wouldn't own a phone that a good gcam port wasn't available for... and I'm very happy with the V40.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] 433Mhz:
I think you need to register your phone when you want to unlock. You basically agree to the loss of warranty. I'm not going to risk my remaining 18 months of Amazon warranty for gcam. However the amounts of ads everywhere are mindblowing, this is my first phone without Root+Adaway in 5+ years.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AsItLies:
What? register when u want to unlock? No, there is no such requirement for the V40. Sounds like you are referring to 'Officially' unlock the phone, register and receive the unlock.bin from them. V40 is NOT officially unlockable.

Warranty service is ALWAYS a tricky thing, I've read of people being denied service for all kinds of various reasons; 'Water Damage' being very common, while the owner swears up and down it's never been wet...

I've also read of people who have unlocked their bootloaders, had an issue, re-locked and still received warranty service. It seems it's 'hit or miss', no way to be sure.

I personally could never live with all those ads, not a chance in a million. I'd prefer to take my chances on a warranty issue not being fixed than live without adaway and magisk and gcam. But, as always, 'To Each Their Own'...

That's a beautiful picture, quite amazing. Google has really created some extraordinary software that helps the hw to capture some awesome images. The HDR+ and nightsight is also unparalleled.

Ive just been experimenting with 4K30 video with the stock manual mode, i was only really using 1080p before

I dont know if its just me but it seems it doesnt look any better than 1080p30

Here are links to each short video clip.

1080p30

https://youtu.be/s6ekYEIYnG0

4K30

https://youtu.be/ipn79seChws

Both in manual mode 30fps with high bitrate selected. No manual adjustments were made. Clips were unedited and rendered through Davinci resolve

Could i have some opinions on whether or not you can see a difference between the 2 in quality please?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ram666ram:
Hi,

using Gcam with "buffer fix", you are able to take pictures "immediatly", or you must wait 1 about second ( or more ) ?

I'm using Gcam with Fu24... version, great pictures, but i need to set 9/12 frames, not more, o waiting time for each shot is too long ...

And also, Reinit camera session is needed with "buffer fix" ?

Thx !
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AsItLies:
The Gcam app, whether you're using a port of it, or it's stock with a pixel phone, you have to wait for the processing. That's just the way it is, because the quality google phone pictures are a result of software processing, not the hardware.

The reinit, from what I remember, wasn't a problem, I just left it to whatever the default was set to, don't remember having to wait for it to re-init.

cheers
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ram666ram:
Strange, because on my LG V40 with A9, no root, Gcam works only with Reinit ON ( Fu24... ) .

My wife's phone is an old Nokia 7+, but here Gcam take a picture immediatly with 36 frames ( in background need seconds to complete the work ) ; in my V40, when i take a picture with only 9 frames, i must wait about 1 second ( circle working on video ) , if i set 36 frames .... i wait about 30 seconds till phone is ready to take a new picture.... :(
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AsItLies:
Interesting, I don't have experience with a vast # of phones and gcam, but just returned a pixel 4a, and it had about the same amount or processing time as the V40 has.

As far as # of frames goes, I think it's overkill when using more than 10, when I've compared results it was almost impossible to see a significant difference with larger amounts. Especially unnecessary if yer not doing extreme cropping on a regular basis. So, if I have a pic I want to get a lot of dynamic range / detail and realistic saturation in, use gcam, if not, use regular cam. Works for me.

cheers
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] WTF?:
Side load Blokada - it is as good as Adaway, probably better, and no root required - that's what I use on my V40, and I had previously used root + Adaway for many years as well!
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AsItLies:
I tired that not long ago... iirc there's quite a bit of configuration needed to get it to work with lte data? I didn't have any success but then again, didn't try too hard.

Do you have it blocking mobile or just wifi? Mind sharing what you did to get it to work with mobile if it is?

thnx
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Legitsu:

[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] GraphicHealer:
this apk with this XML. Rename and remove the ".txt" as xda wont let me upload without renaming it. It works FLAWLESSLY. took me awhile to finally find it, but IT. JUST. WORKS.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AsItLies:
So most of you have seen this same pic before, sorry ;)

But I use it as a reference, probably have more than a 100 versions of it, and most of them I don't remember how / what gcam etc I got the pic with!! Ha, what a pia.

But this version, and other recent ones I've paid more attention to. This version is a kind of special accomplishment. This is using A10 (korean open), it of course is rooted to have the buffer fix installed - needed for the gcam version. The gcam version is one from Pitbull. This is the name: MGC_7.4.104_Pit.v1.9.SDE_Zo.v3.4+.apk

and can be found google search (I used google translate to understand the info from Russian, the install determined english for me so all is english).

The apk has configs it creates within the apk. I prefer the 'lavender' one, and made some slight mods to it (I'll include that xml in case someone wants to try it).

The reason I call this an accomplishment is because of how good the focus and detail turned out. For the life of me, using android 10 and getting a gcam port with good focus, under not so good lighting, has been really difficult. In really bright good lighting, not too big of a problem.

This is actual pic, pretty much anywhere you look / zoom in / good detail and thus focus. (I did use astrophotography on this shot, the lowest setting - seemed to help quite a bit with getting better focus).
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ram666ram:
Hi to all,

one question about Gcam settings .

In my V40 ( A9 ) running the Fu24 6.1 version, i must switch on the "ReINIT Camera Session" ( in HDR+ Parameters ), otherwise after 2 / 3 pictures taken, the process slow down, and i wait 10 or more seconds to take 1 picture.

Do you have the same problem ? Because not all Gcam have this option...

Thx !

ya you can root your A510F using TWRP of CWM recovery mode.

You just nee your SM-A510F, SuperSu zip file from any browser, and thats all:o:o

1. Reboot your phone into recovery mode.

2. Select install and go to your download directery.

3. select SuperSu zip file and flash it.

4. Rebbot your devise; it takes long time just for a first reboot.

5. Download Root Checker from google play store.

6. Check your device and allow SuoerSu to grant permission to Root Checker.

7. Thats all now your device is Rooted once again:D;)

[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Questions & Answers] Theliels:
Its because Pie dont have ramdisk on boot image.

You need patch recovery android pie stock image (Oreo recovery wont work). Use magisk manager, path stock Redmi 6 Pie recovery with all 3 options (yes, recovery mode too). Boot in fastboot, flash the new recovery, and boot into recovery directly with your keys. If you reboot your system normally, magisk will be disabled, you need boot your system in recovery mode, that, power+vol up and release keys once phone vibrate.
