All right! Now for the first time after updating AXP.OS via TWRP, the MicroG-Settings selftest fails on the one point "Play Store (Phonesky) does have the right signature" even though the signature spoofing is and was already aktivated.

*edit* missed the "allow" on the Play App and couldn't delete this post, so... :)

No video boost for me here but I also didn't get the gcam 9.2 update yet.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Sasaiber:
Me too:(
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
It should be a feature in the background that automatically upgrades video footage uploaded from a p8 pro, not sure if you see it already since its supposed to take several hours / days (and we don't even know if it applies to older footage from before today).

Maybe it's also a server sided feature unlocked via Google Photos, not sure if it has anything to do with Gcam.

Is there a visual icon that shows the status of a video getting the video boost upgrade?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] CHH2:
I'm bummed that Zoom Enhance didn't make it into this round. I was looking forward to that more than anything else.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Lughnasadh:
For what it's worth, I've read a few articles which refer to a Video Boost setting in the Camera app. This allows 2 copies of the video to be saved, one regular video and one with much more information that is sent to Google's cloud. If the setting is not enabled, only one copy of the video is made.

If the above is true, my guess is it will be a server side update or Pixel Camera update.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Utini:
It's just bull**** that I have to enable Google photos backup to get all these features.

Let me upload photos/videos one by one and not my whole storage which will be compressed anyway and is also too be for the available free backup storage plan.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Santi3598:
Small thing, they added a cool at a glance widget with the weather on the right, but there's still no way to remove the original at a glance widget, so it's kind of pointless
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] supermansaga:
I don't see the Video Boost setting. The “summarize” by Google Nano isn't here yet. I do see the "Weather" in the clock app.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
Interesting that Google doesn't heavily advertise this, poor graphics performance is one of the major deficits of Tensor and many people call it a big issue, yet Google seems not to care at all, considering that they don't even talk about improvements in this area.

[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
and there it is. Just updated apps through playstore and there was a system app and gboard among others. Now it's showing. didn't even have to reboot.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] pixelsquish:
sideloaded today on T-Mo. I see repair mode, security update is 12/5 - video boost hasn't shown up yet, but that is normal. however, with the pixel 2 watch, watch unlock does not show up in the watch app nor in p8p security settings. wtf?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
Are you by chance looking for 'extend unlock' under more security and privacy?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] pixelsquish:
unfortunately not. this is a new feature called watch unlock that can be enabled in the watch app under security settings or on the device security - with this it uses bluetooth but it has to be really close to your phone, like 4 inches. it was previewed at CES.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
"Video Boost has a maximum recording limit of 10 minutes."

Well, that sux.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
It seems that we need GCam 9.2 in order to use the feature, however I am still on 9.1 and attempts to sideload 9.2 have failed (error saying its not compatible with my P8 Pro).
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Sasaiber:
Has anyone already been able to use video boost?🫠
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] quantan:
I received 9.2 update from Playstore but there is no Video boost yet. Perhaps we need another update.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
thanks, not on mine either.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] HipKat:
Same here. 9.2.113.585804376.14

I love the new onscreen shortcuts to settings and filters but no boost.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] DanielF50:
If you don't want to wait for rollout, you can enable Video Boost (if you're rooted):

Download gms flags from github.

Grant root access.

Tap apps > Camera.

Tap the first result on the pop-up.

Scroll down & toggle "Video__camcorder_sapphire_opt" to on.

Force close Google Camera.

Re-open Google Camera, select Video & the app will ask you to enable Video Boost 👍

You can create a folder and then in settings only have backup work for that folder. So I have one folder that I throw the photo(s) into if I want to use magic edit, etc... I think that was a relatively recent feature so you have to have the latest photos app.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
Worked great, ty.

Do you have any idea how the flag might be called to enable the new Pixel Watch 2 unlocking feature?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] DanielF50:
Np, found it on this "Pixel 8 / Pro chat" telegram group linked on Reddit.

I saw that someone (Dec 7, 07:16am) in that chat recorded their screen and it said "unlocked by watch" but they didn't post anything about how they did it & unfortunately I couldn't find anything else, maybe they can shed some light on it? I don't have a PW2 to test with, otherwise I'd go poking around myself 😅

If you really want it *now*, sideload the OTA via adb.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] netgar:
Just to confirm...

Anyone got video boost update?

Thank you
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
You need GCam 9.2 for that, with sideloading and GMS flag it can be enabled if you are unlucky and don't get the update quickly.

I sideloaded and enabled Video Boost manually, made a 10 sec clip last night (8 MB big, 270 MB temporary file), and it stayed in "uploading" for several hours. After waking up this morning, it said it finished like 5 hours ago. So there is most likely a que right now and if there are too many before you, Google Photos will refuse to upload the file at all until you get far enough into the que.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] netgar:
Thank you for response. I have 9.2 already. Went through all settings in video options and haven't found anything. Any suggestions?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] fabiodifa:
Noob question: is It possible to download the update with no wait for OTA? In this case, how can I install the update? Thanks in advance!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] simplepinoi177:
Yes!

Go to the link below

Full OTA Images for Nexus and Pixel Devices | Google Play services | Google for Developers

developers.google.com

and download the latest Full OTA image. Be aware that there is a bug on that site that won't show the latest images unless you are viewing the English version of the page.

After downloading, you can boot into Recovery and "sideload" it. There are various ways of accomplishing this -- and a simple search here or in Google should instruct it directly...

Sadly the group couldn't help. According to the newest 9to5 Google article, the feature has not yet been rolled out. It will likely require a new firmware update.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] HipKat:
Nope nor do I have the Watch Unlock and I just noticed I can't toggle the Google Password Manager on - probably because Bootloader and/or Root

[Google Pixel 8 Pro] n3m35155:
Anyone else have an issue where watch unlock disappeared?

I had it the first day after the update, then poof!! Gone..

Not showing "watch unlocK as an option on phone, but yet the watch shows my pixel 8 pro setup as a device it unlocks under Settings -> Security -> watch unlock on the PW2
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] HipKat:
I don't even have that on my watch
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] cmh714:
Ditto!

****EDIT: Actually I do have it on my phone, so suspect if I enable it maybe that setting gets pushed over during a sync....not something I want to use myself.

Hi,

Enabled video boost. Took a 23 second video yesterday evening at 7pm. 26 hours later, it's not available yet.

Guess they are overwhelmed with everyone submitting their videos at the moment... 🤔

Someone already had their boosted available?

Cheers,

Sébastien.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
Worked here just now. Was 24s long and after about an hour or so I got it back boosted...

Well, I don't actually know when it finished, I only checked after an hour
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] pixelsquish:
As I mentioned, I side loaded a few days ago. still no video boost or watch unlock 🤷
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 5.1:
Hi,

Is it worth it?

Cheers,

[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
On my phone it looks just as good as the normal HDR recording. There is no way really to discern differences on such a small display.

On my PC I am able to see better sharpness, better contrast and more details, however you need a big screen to actually appreciate the step up from Video Boost to "normal" HDR recording.

What interests me is the question of battery life: technically, the Pixel 8 Pro doesn't need to do any processing, it "just" needs to capture. So the question is: does Video Boost offer better battery life than "normal" HDR recording?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 5.1:
Hi,

Well, video boost is done on Google server, not on the phone. 👍

Thanks for your feedback...

[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
the video I took was inside and I didn't really challenge it. It is somewhat improved. E.g. in the original video the phone is trying to adjust to the light with some substantial swings. Those are mostly gone in the boosted video. I think the colors are represented better as well, but still have to look at this on the large screen. I will be trying more outside with Christmas lights and report back.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
Does your camera app also automatically reverts back to normal recording?

Whenever I close the camera app, video boost deactivates itself. I have to manually activate it every time I open the camera app, otherwise I get normal HDR recording.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
Correct, same here. Wish there was a button next to the shutter button to enable it
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
okay, have to create a separate response to this one.

well, well, well. I am blown away is all I can say. I walked around my house tonight in the dark, only lights from christmas lights in the area. the difference is night and day - haha. It's brilliant how it improved the lighting and the colors. I am going to upload it to a site for folks to see soon (any recommendations other than youtube?). Attaching some example quick and dirty captures from the video. It's clear which ones are boosted.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Utini:
Hm this only works for me when googl backup is activated and when that is activated it will always backup the camera folder. I can't exclude the camera folder without deactivating the whole backup feature.

Can you double check that on your device?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] quera:
is there any chance Shizuku without root can enable it?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
The details on the wood and bricks.. amazing.

I found Video Boost to be less impressive in bright daylight vs the normal HDR recording, however in low light this finally gives us the video quality we wanted.

It's a bit of a shame that we have so many limitations right now (no zoom, no ultrawide, no 60 FPS, only 10 min long), but it's still an incredible showcase of software processing power. Google will surely improve this over time. It could also be an incredible feature to advertise Google One with - theoretically it should work on any modern flagship.

The comparison videos on YouTube will be interesting to see, hopefully they'll arrive soon ;)
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Utini:
For night videos it is really really good!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] johnsmallberries:
I think you are right. It does seem to backup the entire camera folder in addition to other folders that you selected (but you can't unselect the camera)
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
walk around the house (silly dogs)

- Pixel 8 normal

- Pixel 8 Video Boost

not sure if the links work.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Utini:
I figured out that you can leave backup disabled and then in the video just select "backup this one video".

That works as I want it!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
Here are two comparison shots (videoboost on vs off) on a Pixel 8 Pro

Here is also a comparison video between Video boost vs IPhone 15 Pro max vs Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
There also are a couple of interesting comparison shots from 9to5 Google

Hands-on: Video Boost on Pixel 8 Pro compared to the iPhone 15 Pro [Video]

Here's how Video Boost and Night Sight Video on the Google Pixel 8 Pro compares to the video shot by Apple's iPhone 15 Pro.

9to5google.com

It seems safe to say that Video Boost is a moderate upgrade in daylight vs the Pixel 8 Pro, bringing it close to the best video shooting phones out there, however in night sight / dark scenarios, it blows the competition out of the water.

The future will be interesting, once Google improves the tech and brings it to all cams and with less restrictions.

Hopefully Google can figure out a way to bring this feature on-device aswell, to not rely on cloud. I wouldn't mind an implementation where e.g. the processing happens overnight, when the phone charges, so it doesn't matter if it takes a couple of hours.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] Nyangire:
Hello, I've been having problems with the SPen pressure sensitivity as follows

When the pen is perpendicular to the screen I can control the pressure well, from very thin to very thick lines, however a more natural angled position makes it so that the pressure sensitivity is basically at a 100%, no thin lines even when barely applying any pressure.

This is with pens that have TILT turned off, only pressure sensitivity on.

I've tried this with various apps and pens, making sure TILT is off - Krita, Clip Studio, Autodesk etc etc...

I've also tried a different pen - my galaxy note 10+ spen, exactly the same behavior when used on the tablet. the phone has less of this issue.

A friend with a S7FE says they do not have this problem. And ofc my XPpen drawing tablet has absolutely no variation between angles, you can draw equally thin and thick no matter how you hold the pen for non tilt sensitive pens.

I've heard the Spen has some potentiometers in the pen to adjust the sensitivity, but looking at jerryrigeverythings teardown I don't see where they are, nor can I identify the tilt adjustment one. Idk if this would even solve the issue.

As it stands, the pressure sensitivity is unusable, I keep switching back to non pressure sensitive pens since I cannot control the pressure at all.

Help would be very much appreciated, I really want this tablet to be good for drawing.

Device: Samsung Tab S7 SM-T870NDBAEUX (Europe) One UI 5.1.1 Android 13

note about the image: the angle of holding is more like 45 deg, whatever I find natural.

Same pen, minimum pressure applied.

I recently bought a Lenovo Tab P11 5g (The TB-J607Z version) and i am having two issues with it. The first issues is that the tablet is not getting service (like 4g, 5g on metropcs) it just gets hung up and allows no data connection. The second issues is that i want to install a custom Rom on it but no one made one for the J607Z.

PS: The first day I bought and connected the tablet on metropcs it was working just fine I was able to get 5g on (using the internet)

[OnePlus 10 Pro] vermy:
I'll begin with I deserve all the flack I get. I unlocked the bootloader on my OPP 10, and flashed a bad Magisk-modified boot.img file and wound up in an endless boot loop. It can load the bootloader (stock), and get into fastboot mode. I tried booting to partition B, to no avail, and have sent it to a phone guy I've used in the past for sim unlock keys and it sounds like they are unable fix it. I'm hoping as it still has some functionality, some one can repair my foolishness. I can follow directions remotely, or send it to them. For pay of course. Just looking for someone reputable. Thank you.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] kouzelnik3:
If you have bootloader access, did you try to flash the original boot img from the same software version you have installed? It should fix it.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] vermy:
Currently that's above my pay grade.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] vermy:
Currently that's above my pay grade, but I have a feeling I'll soon have to learn it. Obviously just rooting the dang thing was above my pay grade... I hoped the place I sent it to could do just that. Thank you.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] kouzelnik3:
The same way you flashed the magisk boot img, the same way you will flash the original one.

Or just do the "fastboot boot boot.img" when you are in adb and the phone is in the bootloader. Then do the fastboot reboot and it should reboot into the system. Then open Magisk, click on the Magisk (top one), click on the "Direct install", confirm it as you should be good to go.

Also you can read through the guide that one of here's members created: https://xdaforums.com/t/no-longer-b...-dumper-magisk_patched-guides-ne2213.4429711/

Or if you have any questions, I can try to help you.

Eventually you can tell me step-by-step what you did and I might figure out what did you wrong and give you some advices :)
