[LG V20 Questions & Answers] THE-COPS:
Camera output. That is, the resulting video file from the camera after pressing record button.

I know there is a loss of quality from compression. But it's not compression artifacts causing this. Bitrate doesn't make any difference. You can clearly see the video detail is not even close to what it says it is. I especially noticed this with text. I was recording a video while in a car. There was a car maybe 1-2 car lengths ahead. One can easily read the license plate. In the recorded 1280x720 video, I could NOT make out the plate at all. You'd thought I recorded in 960x540 or close. It's rather blurry. I think that's why LG added all that oversharpening.

I even set it to take photos at 1280x720. And even with high jpg compression zoomed/cropped, it doesn't look like the 1280x720 zoomed/cropped video of the same exact item being photo'd.

Been using Mark Harmons OpenCamera and trying all sorts of video bitrates. Then changing photo save resolution. I found that a photo resolution of between 960x540 and 800x480 (cropped) looks very similar to what a cropped 720P video appears. It seems as if there is some kind of preprocessing going on with the image that makes it appear extremely muddy (smudged blurry detail cropped). Nothing at all changed with the quality whether the bitrate was set at 5Mbps or 50Mbps. Quality remained unchanged.

Sounds like Oreo update isn't worth the trouble. As far as how it's coded... I think it's the awful preprocessing muddying up the image detail as I mentioned above. Using massively high bitrates does no good at all.

4K on tripod VS 1080 on tripod is quite noticeable on the V20 due to the appearance of upscaling (or horrible preprocessing.. whichever it is).

I didn't know Slo-Mo was supposed to have sound. I mean, the option to enable sound would be interesting (say a time-stretched audio instead of slowed down pitch).
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Mysticblaze347:
Who wouldn't want sound with slow mo? That's like no sound with regular video lol.

LG also made it to where 4k can barely be done via third party. Gcam can't...Open Cam can. Nothing can be done without root tho. Even then... limitations upon availability and know how. Manual setting is your best bet. Auto is well...auto, so definitely postprocessing will be involved and yes it's not the best, unless fixed with some mod, even if that works. LG hardcoded lockdowns. Camera firmware can be possible tweaked...but I do not know how.

Is there away to delete emails without having to go into the account, and delete the message from there?

I can see the message is junk mail and would really rather just have a quick delete button!

also, is there a way to turn off Delete confirmation on SMS messages?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ivannovich:
To delete a mail you have to open it and then Menu \ Delete. I'm agree with you than a direct option to delete it was very good

Hello,

I decided to recreate one of my first games Vegetables Sharks straight into augmented reality!

Now the sharks will swim at your home.

The aim of the game is to allow sharks to eat a barrel of vegetables and swim safely from one place to another.

Download link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sekip.VegetablesSharksAR

I hope you like it.

Note: the game only works on devices that have ARCore support.

Carbon OS rom or Havok OS rom looks like Oneplus's UI.

Maybe someone else knows other ROM but, to me, these are best to answer your question.

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Daywalkr1990:
Quick Question,

do i have to full wipe when coming from the AOSP rom or am I able to dirty flash it?

And thanks for making this Rom it's awesome
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] spezi77:
My pleasure.

A full wipe is recommended to avoid any bizarre issues.

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] nyolsson2:

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kkjb:
It is not a clone. I have been using the last three PD builds (really 3 months) and I have found....So Far.... In a bad way, No differences. Active edge has more settings, I think. I see less overnight sleep mode & less app background activity. Matt Log app is a no-go in my personal app loads. So try it!!
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kkjb:
Really means I like much better !!! Really !!!

CAF I understand, just it's seems nobody just flashes. Because the next question is.... Can I keep my data. Sorry obi one :)

Edit 1 I really like the active edge stuff...music and screen off are my favorites.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] spezi77:

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] drocny87:
If you don't mind me asking what difference will be noticed in this CAF rom compared to the non CAF PD i have been using since this rom was released for this device?
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] nyolsson2:
CAF stands for Code Aurora Forum. It's similar to XDA but is more geared towards OS devs. As you prob know Android is open, and manufacturers implement some of their own changes. In the past, CAF Roms have included better audio processing, cpu clock tweaks, etc. CAF Roms include the optimizations made by Qualcomm (cpu maker).
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Ferdimage:
Thanks this is enough for me to switch over.

Hey guys,

I updated the OP. There is now a download link for an "unofficial" TWRP version created by Captain Throwback (Test Builds for Android 11/12 ONLY) and also instructions on how to install PixelDust ROM over TWRP. I've been using TWRP for 2 weeks without any problems. So I thought it would be useful to point this out to you.

Edit: Today TWRP team has officially released twrp-3.6.0 for blueline! I have updated the download link in the OP.

Android 12 decryption

If you're running Android 12, TWRP will only be able to decrypt if you remove any password/PIN/pattern in Android.

It would be nice if someone could try the TWRP installation steps and give me feedback.

Thank you!
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] yamilmanzur:
My phone has A12 stock, the first step of installing the stock rom is mandatory or is it enough to unlock the bootloader and follow the following steps?
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jsauder2:
If you're already on stock, then you can skip that and go straight to the unlock bootloader step.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] DMax525:
I installed the ROM via sideload after a full wipe and the interface is quite laggish, which is weird... Feels like it's throttling quite a lot. Or did I do something wrong?
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Aguys:
I feel the same.

Changed GPU governor to simple_ondemand, it's better (for me) but still
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] rusquad:
after formatting the data, it is impossible to copy the firmware to the device.

I also noticed interface lags on the last release, it seems that this was not the case on the first.

can I also take a custom kernel as a basis right away?
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jsauder2:
This might be related to the VoLTE indicator issue, but I'm getting some odd spacing in the statusbar when I have airplane mode on and WiFi on (see screenshot). I have bad service at home, so I do this often and let calls/text come through WiFi to avoid dropped calls.

Second image shows how it looked when I pull down the notification panel (shows the 'VoWiFi' icon).

If I go into the PixelDust settings and toggle any statusbar icon on/off, it seems to fix it.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] spezi77:

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jsauder2:

Hum, I think that you are referring to the date of the security patch, not the build date. 🤔
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jsauder2:
This is what is in Settings > About Phone.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] spezi77:
This build number is defined by the AOSP. It is monthly increased when a new security patch is released. If you want to check if you are on the latest Pixeldust build you could e.g. check the kernel build date. Settings > About > Android Version.

Hello, first of all thank you dev for providing us pixeldust to our beloved blueline. a bit anxious this couple of weeks seeing this xda page doesnt seem to have a lot going on lol.

installed the rom earlier and it seems fine. close to stock as expected with improvements here and there, which i greatly appreciate. that being said i encountered stuttering during the notification pulldown animation. which was really weird considering other tasks animation went buttery smooth.

all in all it is a great rom, looking forward to future enhancements!

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jsauder2:
Fair enough. I always thought that the build version came from the build.prop and was edited with custom roms to show the current version of the rom, and security patch version would show in it's own box. Kernel version makes sense, but I'm using a custom kernel so the PixelDust version is overwritten by that.

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jsauder2:
The built in kernel is fine as is, but if you really want something different, you can use Kirisakura.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Daniel1018:
Does the built in kernel and kirisakura perform the same? What are the difference between them?
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] jsauder2:
I've not compared them enough to give you an answer to that. You can read the OPs of each to see what's included and then try them out yourself and see what you think.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] spezi77:
For the next build I have changed the default kernel in PixelDust to Kirisakura.

I'm currently still running PixelDust Eleven, but am starting to catch the upgrade bug again. I see OTA is once again a thing, now that we can have TWRP again, fantastic news! Looking at blueline and crosshatch threads for this ROM, I see the mention in the OP about safetynet apps working out of the box, does this imply that the ROM is also rooted? I run a few apps (AdAway, YouTube Vanced, Swift Backup) that are better with root. If it is not rooted, will Magisk and TWRP conflict with one another? If I install Magisk, will OTA still work?
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] zezayer:

[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] 33HdA:
Hi @spezi77

Thanks a ton for the ROM first of all.

I see a lot of items that I would love to have on my blueline.

The only problem that is keeping me away from trying this ROM is eSIM, I do have and use the eSIM on this device, are you working on that to get resolved? I will be highly obliged if you do.

There are a couple of questions that I have:

1. How Original Quality Photos backup works when this device has stopped giving unlimited Original quality upload moving forward since Jan31'2022?

2. Is there a way to have Dual SIM- Dual Standby on this device as it is only software-blocked as Google could not get this phone registered as Dual SIM device and has only 1 IMEI on the phone?

Thanks in advance !
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] smraa:
I'm already on the latest build though. I think the problem comes from my device itself
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] 33HdA:
Yup @spezi77

The same is happening with me too, on the latest build, done a complete wipe and tried reinstalling, the phone is heating a lot, even while idle due to which the battery performance and charging both are effected severely.

My battery was replaced once as original one worn our over the years, but works flawlessly on Stcok Android, if that helps at all.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] tambourineman86:
Great ROM spezi77! This has been the first time I've rooted/rom'd out my phone since probably the Galaxy 3 or 4 (I forget) and I must say, very impressive! ROM is snappy as hell, all the extras are useful and my battery life is pretty darn good.

Hi,anyone can confirm whether Original Quality Photos backup works or eats up my storage?
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] deuterium-2h:
Yes, original quality is working without counting against storage. It seems to be emulating a Pixel 6 to do this.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] zezayer:
Thanks so much for fixing this on the latest build. :)

Is anyone else still having this problem? I am also finding the GPS to be very hit and miss.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] zezayer:
It is emulating the pixel XL, this can be toggled in the pixeldust settings menu.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] deuterium-2h:
On my phone using the Feb build, double tapping the power button opens the built-in camera app as expected. e.g. no need to unlock.

I too am having GPS issues when using Google Maps. My location doesn't update or only updates intermittently until I toggle Location service off/on.

Oh OK. I assumed that it was emulating the Pixel 6 because Find My Device thought my Pixel 3 was a "Pixel 6 Pro".
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] deuterium-2h:
FYI - I dirty flashed PixelDust over the stock Android 12 build from October 2021. Everything is working great except for the GPS issue I mentioned in the above post.
[Google Pixel 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] zezayer:

I'm struggling with the Starling banking app to record a video to authenticate myself with the bank.

It wants to record a front camera video, but when it does the viewfinder is jittery and the app says failed. Looks like a 3rd party app can't record video despite permissions being good.

No mods, just the 13th Feb ROM installed (clean sideload).
