[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
Shining a light directly on an object or a person you taking a picture of from the very same point the camera is at, is probably the worst lighting scenario you can achieve. Pretty much any semi-usable ambient light coming from a different angle should yield better results, as long as a camera is capable of bumping it's sensitivity, and the the "night mode", while technically is computational, is pretty much just an equivalent of that. Seriously, even just lighting that pitch black room with a "flash" of another phone (hopefully without shine it directly on the photographed object, though) will give you a much nicer picture.

Want a demo? Shine a flashlight (possibly the very same one, from your phone) on another person's face in a pitch dark room, from about the same distance you want to take the picture from. Hold the flashlight somewhere at your nose level. Now your eyes see exactly what a camera would, while taking a pic with that flash.

PS: IMO, removing auto-flash makes perfect sense. Kinda shifts people into using it as little as possible.

---------- Post added at 02:18 ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 ----------

Yea, they do. To see some creative uses, Google "slow sync flash" and switch to images tab, but in general, flash is still very useful. This doesn't apply in any way or form to a mobile phone "flash" which isn't really a flash (too weak, fires for way too long to freeze motion, and that's in addition to being non moveable away from the lens).
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] EvanVanVan:
That's dumb.

You're advocating having a second phone or flashlight to add ambient light into the room? WTF lol.

Google should make it an option, if someone manually turn's off the flash, great use auto-night mode...But don't remove auto flash entirely. I don't need artistic pictures.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
Agreed, there are some instances when I want to use a flash. Contrary to what some say, Night sight won't always give you the best photo and having that one switch isn't an option that should bother anyone, it was dumb to remove it.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
What i meant is that pretty much any ambient light thats coming from a source that isn't at the same point (shining from the same angle) your camera is at would do better than a camera flash, and you can DEMONSTRATE it by using a flashlight or even a second phone. I don't advocate actually doing it in real life day to day pictures, turn your damn lights on and stop making a strawman.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
Well agree to disagree then. I've been using cell phones since my first bag phone and have probably take hundreds of photos using the flash. Obviously you've either had bad phones or don't know how to use it because I can and do take good photos using the flash.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
One thing i definitely agree about, Android is all about customization, and there would be absolutely no harm in providing an option to get either auto-flash, auto-night-mode, both or none.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] EvanVanVan:
Most of the pictures I end up taking are of things for work that I need to be able to read later. That's why flash is absolutely essentially. But also annoying when it's manually-on and used in bright settings (almost entirely because of the delay it adds to the capture).

I attached two pictures one of auto-night mode vs one with flash turned on... and this wasn't even that dark of a room.. auto-night mode doesn't work miracles. - I also dislike that since you're forced to hold the camera still for ~5 seconds, the pictures can end up out of focus.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
This kibd of pic would really benefit from high ISO, would be noisy, but readable, and without the glare on the 3 phases column.

And i've just been surprised to discover that pixel 5 camera app (a feature being praised everywhere!!!), unlike Samsung, is completely missing manual controls. Damn.

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------

As an experiment, can you download any camera app that allows manual ISO, and retake this pic in the same conditions, but without flash, without night mode, no complex magical stuff of any kind, just raise the ISO?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Tanquen:
Running into this today trying to take pictures under the bathroom sink and it's too dark for the night site feature and I want to use the flash. They really should have an option that when it's really dark and muddy it'll use the auto flash. It could be defaulted to off and that's fine but there's a handful of times where the night site is just not going to work.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] BWhitmore:
A real obvious need for flash is if you are a gig delivery person and you have to take a pic of the burger in the bag on a very dark doorstep. Night sight •might• work but it's not a situation where you want to be stading around for several seconds for the camera to do its work, all to yield a meh looking image that is barely in focus. Flash, boom, get out. That's what is called for in that situation.

So I've been having this weird issue when I connect my Note 20 Ultra to Samsung Dex pad, the "Dance" ringtone starts playing, no apps are open, it's not even a ringtone I've selected for any of my apps, the only to stop it is to turn my phone off and then back on again.

Any ideas?

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] ffp.:
Hi, I am coming from a Sony Xperia Z5 device to get a new Samsung Galaxy and just can't decice between the S20 and S20+.

My main issue is with battery life. I prefer screens that aren't so big, I feel the S20+ has a too long screen, but if it has more advantages I guess I can get used to that size. So, does the S20+ battery really lasts more (much) than the S20?? There are other advantages?

I will buy no 5G, Exynos versions, since those are the only available here.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] pham_dang:
I upgraded to S20+ from LG G6, I don't regret it ever. You will appreciate the big screen from day 1, its just fantastic. Obviously S20+ has better battery than S20 (I would say around 1 hour more of screen on time on the plus)

Numbers wise, S20+ is about 15mm taller than Z5. Check this site so you can kinda imagine the size of S20+

https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=7534&idPhone2=10080
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] ffp.:
Yes, I like gsmarena. According to them S20 has about 9h o video playback in 120Hz and S20+ has 13:30 video playback in 120Hz too. I think 4h more is kinda good.

My main fear is the screen size and the difficulty to reach buttons with one hand. But it is already hard to do that with the Z5, so i guess the 1,5cm more of size won't matter too much. However, while the phones sizes are only 1,5cm apart, the usable screen size are 6.7in in S20+ and 5.2in. So, I wonder how easy ot os to handle it with one hand.

I know it has a one handed mode, it works good?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] pham_dang:
If you are going Exynos, just get the Plus model. Exynos will suck another 1 hour of screen on time (comparison is on Youtube), so the Plus with a bigger battery will compensate that silly chipset. S20 actually has 6.2inch screen btw. I never use one hand mode, i'm fine with the size of the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] BigE:
Not sure if you are in the USA or not, but also keep in mind on top of battery life, having all three bands of the S20+ is a big difference in connectivity, and eventually, more battery efficiency.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Bxrider117:
I have owned both. I prefer Feb size of the S20 but appreciate the battery life of the S20 plus. Especially since I've been running Android 11 beta on S20 plus. I've been off the charger for 16 hours and it is 1125pm here with 4 hours screen on time and I still have 40% battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] ffp.:
So, overall you think the plus is better and got to use it in the end?

[MENTION=409772]BigE[/MENTION], no, im not from Us. Don't know if that band thing applies.

[MENTION=2931739]phamdang[/MENTION] I was comparing to the Z5 screen which is 5.2in

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ukdj78:
Hi guys, I was wondering if there was such a thing as a tool you could install on your PDA which would notify you of any program making changes to the registry in windows mobile 6.1? Such a tool would be a great help in trying to diagnose a little issue I'm having with SMS notifications on my new Raphael!

I've done a search for such a tool on XDA developers with google but I couldn't find anything.

I know this isn't strictly related to development, but I figured if I could find out what is causing this problem it would be useful information for the ppl out there who are thinking about cooking a ROM for the Raph!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joshkoss:
search reglogger
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ukdj78:
Thanks for that :D I've downloaded it and I'll give it a try tomorrow.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ukdj78:
Unfortunately RegLogger doesn't work on the Raphael, it just comes up with a window saying "Can't find a server process" and then closes again. Are there any other alternative programs I can use?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joshkoss:
do you have .net installed, don't know if that makes a difference.. Sorry i'm all out of ideas1 ;) Best of luck
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ukdj78:
Yeah I have .net 3.5 installed. I just tried it on my Hermes which also has a 6.1 rom and it worked fine, must be something about the Raphael hardware that it doesn't like!

Never mind though, I might still be able to discover what it is that's causing my problem without RegLogger.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mabeliscool:
Hi all, thanks for reading this! This is my first post on here so bear with me a bit.

My friend has a Samsung Galaxy A51 and really wanted to put Resurrection Remix on his A51. I put LineageOS on my first generation Pixel XL so I thought it would be a breeze to help him out unlocking the bootloader, putting TWRP on there, flashing the OS itself, etc. However, we ran into some problems. OEM unlocking is not in the developer options anywhere, and when using ADB/fastboot it recognized the device however when we did any command (say fastboot unlock bootloader or whatever the command is) it just says waiting for device (perhaps we're missing something small in adb?). It has since not even recognized the device in the list of connected devices, and currently we are at a loss. If it helps, it is currently not unlocked carrier wise I don't think and its under Verizon.

Any help is greatly appreciated! :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] KingKazmaOfficial:
Hi,

I have a rooted OP8P running Magisk 21.0 (21000), and using Magisk Manager 8.0.2 (307)(11). My OS build is Oxygen OS 10.5.13.IN11AA(enhanced by xXx_NoLimits_ 12.3).

I keep getting the pesky notification to Update to Oxygen OS 11.IN1AA, the one that gives me the option to "Download and Install Now". I have no plans nor any desire to go to Android 11 as of yet, so I would like to do two things, stop this notification from showing up, and ensure that the update doesn't install itself.

Normally, I wouldn't worry about it updating without some user input but just today I got a second notification telling me that "System update installation failed" prompting me to "Try Again"(See attached pic). This is both good and bad I suppose, but it's still troubling since this newest notification indicates that it tried to update without me knowing about it. This simply will not do.

Any advice? I know it's not as simple as disabling the notification, as it doesn't allow me to do so.

Thanks!
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] NYCgirl:
I'm seeing the same and contemplated the same question. What are your reasons for avoiding the upgrade?

p.s. I can think about a way of disabling system notifications (using root access), but I worry about missing important notifications, so I left this pesky message on.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] KingKazmaOfficial:
I just don't see any real reason to update, OOS 10 is working fine for me. From what I've seen OOS 11 doesn't bring anything compelling enough to the table to make me to want to upgrade. Also, OOS 10 has been around long enough that there are robust resources and development communities built around it, meaning more reliable troubleshooting and overall easier research. On top of all that, having to factory reset and re-root to avoid potential bugs due to OOS 10 residuals isn't very attractive either.

I mean don't get me wrong, I love the feeling and idea of being on the bleeding edge as much as the next guy, but I'd rather all my ducks be in a row beforehand...if that makes any sense.

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] KingKazmaOfficial:
first run the command

adb devices

to ensure that you phone is connected, and that you have the proper drivers are installed.

Then, make sure that your phone is unlocked (not the bootloader, just actually unlocked so the screen is on). After running that above command, you should see a popup come up on your phone screen asking you to allow permission to your computer. Tap "always allow" checkbox and grant the permissions.

Now try to run the command again.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] reversedheaven:
Phone seems to have died on me today...

- was on gallery, screen froze

- after 30-60secs no response, performed powerbutton+volume down reset

- screen went black, however even after holding buttons for about 30 secs, nothing happened.

- at least 60% battery estimated at the time

- recovery mode button combination does nothing as well

- notification led or screen does nothing when USB charge is plugged in allowed up to 30 minutes

- unplugged device, I gave up, had to sleep

- woke up 3 hours after, accidentally left phone under pillow

- phone was warm/hot (supports initial suspicion that phone was stuck doing something probably in the background)

- phone just updated to latest software earlier that morning (not sure if that matters)

- phone has been cold for the past 8 hours now (thinking of allowing it to drain battery)

- tried plugging in earlier for 5 minutes, same result, no screen, logo, notification light

- power, reset, recovery modes no success

Suggestions anyone? (BTW USB on this device has gone out 2 years ago)

Any suggestions will be appreciated. :fingers-crossed:
