Well, I bet your fingerprint shortcuts actually work, they don't work at all on the T799B. And as a consolation, that green T799H is beautiful and not available in the US yet.

If you have the Plex, then you probably have the T799H (green EU) variant of the TCL 10 Pro. The T799B (gray US/CAN) variant has the smart key settings and a different accessibility menu

Software version? It's in the latest build, and was there our the box as well (advanced features), that's strange it's not showing for you.

Camera API 2 app, as well as exif data on test device and review model images show the lens aperture to be f1.9, not the advertised spec of f1.79. Anyone have a clue? Could this be an error on the readout/report on exif data and API probes, or did TCL pull a fast one?

If you click the pictures and bring up the menu, click the info button and you'll see the ports I used for each picture. Most were taken with the same port. I only use two versions. I (and others) discuss the ports and settings at length in this thread.

No; but the quality is effectively the same, regardless. The limitation is due to the fact that the X4 uses a method known as 'pixel binning' which basically combines the data from 4 pixels into one, thus the camera is reported to third party apps as 4mp, but that's just the way the camera...

I'm not mistaken. You don't know what camera port/version I used - that's number one. Number two, you don't have my camera samples, number three, you don't have my exif data. I get two pictures, one with the entire scene in focus, and another with a different focal plane. And yes, at distance...

Not necessarily; I don't share more personal portraits (of people) but it takes portraits well at distance, in fact, Google is on record with its philosophy of almost forcing more distance with its default 1.5x zoom in portrait mode. I'll look at the exif/metadata and check to see what the...

There's no Google camera port for the X4, in any variant. There are hundreds of Google camera ports, many of which function in limited or mostly limited capacity on the X4, though. Portrait mode works fine with the rear camera, as well as the front camera. These portrait shots were taken with...

Gotcha; that worries me for once P lands on my device. Stock vs. the Google camera ports is no contest, and I don't see that changing. Good luck with the 7 plus.

I posted in another thread what I probably should've posted here, but I didn't see this thread until later. I think the 7 Plus has the same camera sensor as the X4 (based on research and sensor data). Here's the variants that work best for our sensor. I'm thinking you may have luck with the...

Is anyone willing to try the following Google camera ports: This one for general photography and low light especially. And this one, which is more stable but requires much more configuration. I suggest that two, because I have reason to believe the 7 Plus has the same camera sensor as the X4...

??? Not every version is optimal or even functional on our phones. I tested dozens and recommended the best ones according to my tests. The samples just posted are with a version not ideal for our phone. I won't argue on subjectivity; if you think the moto camera app is superior, I think...

Alright, I see a huge difference, myself. But that's all, those are the only variants that I know work well with our device, and I tested dozens and dozens. I also posted samples and comparisons in different places, and compared hundreds and hundreds of images captured among the different...

The first setting is 'Auto Correction HDR+' - I use Max Quality. The rest of the settings are just a matter of preference. Like the camera sounds, resolution, etc. I don't enable any of the 'fixes' in the settings. The other poster doesn't need/want help, he likes the stock camera app, which...

What's 'this port', if you don't mind? And that's a surprising thing to read, because just about any port outperforms the shoddy stock camera on this phone. ---------- Post added at 09:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 AM ---------- He didn't ask a question, unless he edited his...

Yes, I would say so. The settings are more thorough, and the stability is very good. Once you set it up, there's nothing to mess with, nothing to worry about. Every time you expect it to work, it works. It was tagged 'beta' only because it was a test version of various features for different...

It depends, my phone isn't rooted either. Best performance I would say is still the one I linked above. Set it up with the settings as I posted, it only takes a minute or two. After that, you'll be able to point and shoot without worrying about focus and exposure just fine. All of the ported...

... quick comparison in low light to show the difference between the unusable stock Moto X4 camera, and the Google camera port I linked above. Both point and shoot; no adjustments, no tap on screen to focus or set exposure. Just opened camera and took a snap...

The camera config one is a major one. This setting affects the way the application interfaces with your phone's hardware. If you use Nexus 6p config, for example, you'll get more moderate shutter speeds compared to Pixel 2 XL, at both ends of the spectrum. In other words, if you want your...

Best one for me has been [https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/GCam5.1.018-Arnova8G2-V1.4Beta2.apk] by quite a margin. Portrait and ZSL work for both front and back, and only HDR+ Enhanced causes a delay due to processing. It would be nice to see the developer settings...

is the OP firmware OTA targeted solely for Sprint variant?

Heads up... The moto audio effects from this repository installs on Moto E4 & E⁴ Plus, but a dialog warning of incompatibility appears each time an audio instance is created in a media player (that means start of playback, skipping, etc., all trigger a new dialog). It's annoying, but the sound...

Works on Moto E4

... it's not actually heat that causes the hang/shutdown in your case, it's a small bug that triggers a race condition that sets the cpu crazy (which then makes things hot, of course). Rare, but as you've noticed, it's there for certain instances. If you're not on the latest release, you should...

... good luck. I didn't develop the firnware with coolio I just helped him understand the overclocking techniques and some other adjustments. He took it all from there, his goal all along was to give users an ATV firmware option with better performance than stock factory builds give. I'm no...

... you should've probably disclosed that you made the firmware, and that you're a Nagrace partner and sales agent. That way people know who they're dealing with, and the source of their information. dewettie is mo123 on freaktab. He's a Nagrace after sales support agent.

Call the Orkin Man! BUGS Everywhere! New pre-pre-pre-Alpha build. Two Z4 variants, one with the power menu fix, with a simple overclock at 1608 max, and the second a 'true octacore' with no power menu functions and an ant-colony-of-bugs. anTuTu score -000567, and climbing. Almost evening out...

It's perfectly fine. It might not work for you, but it's fine just the same. I don't know of any bugs other than the inability to reboot/shutdown from a running system. Double the graphics performance, yes, a full double, of any lollipop firmware - because I backported the marshmallow graphics...

I don't know ... that's another weird thing about your box. I'll have an update in a few days anyway. I've seen sometimes the Z4's will need the button held to boot, but that's across many firmwares, not just mine. Haven't noticed it happening on mine but we'll see how the update goes, I'll...

Have you tried plugging your dongle into the 'otg' port used for flashing? If so, try all the ports before giving up. If nothing works, please grab a dmesg for me if you'd like to help look into the issue further.

I don't know about the dongle ... I'll have an update for 1.5 in the next day or so, and soon after I'll bring Marshmallow, hopefully. 1.5 and 2.0 have different images (like actual 'picture' you see when you plug it in) that's why you see different sizes.

alz_uk try this for your 5G wireless; hopefully that does the trick.

That's not correct. I have two Z4 boxes I use to build and test firmware, in fact. I've been building the RK3368 'true octacore' firmware on a Z4 monthly since September 2016. I don't know why your display is blank. Nobody has reported a blank display in the entire thread that I'm aware of. And...

Here's an RK optimized Kodi that runs really well. It's newer than the Ugoos one, surely. I noticed it does frame rate switching almost seamlessly with no need for pauses.. https://mega.nz/#!XBJFFZjY!YX41qn4a7oOLLVwfNNAWi86BAnqAhWbH7-BvIWYKFQI I checked, says you need to confirm your email...

I know exactly what you mean about antutu tests and 4K. Also, I'm very aware of the state of marshmallow firmware on RK3368 and it's not that good, it's because the sources are just not that good. Can you tell me your username on freaktab?

I don't know what you mean? ... all the antutu tests are done in 1080p on all TV boxes. Can you explain more? I did release an experimental full blown 4K version months ago, with changes to the framebuffer and memory, etc. That version will run antutu, Kodi, and everything else at 4K...

No problem - the 5G missing in 1.5 isn't a bug it just was omitted, a bad habit I still have of leaving things out that I don't use - because this originally started as a personal project. Let me know if you notice anything else. I'll be uploading an update with some entrancements soon. Is...

... no the resource. img is fine. In order for it to work you'd have to be on the full version 2, not split or mixed images of any kind. There's something odd about your device, though.. And nope, the shutdown bug won't be fixed anytime soon as far I can tell. Been there since November, for me...

I'll check 5G wifi on my box, I thought it was there but I'll look again and let you know. Do you mind flashing this resource http://ge.tt/819iG2j2 real quick and checking performance and 5G for me, please?

Is that HDMI issue something that exists in all firmwares or just mine? Can you please reproduce that and grab a dmesg and logcat? Or either.. ..EDIT: also, select a cable that works well for you and try to minimize plugging/unplugging into the box itself. The Z4 is well known to have a weak...

So you were never fully able to install v2? I'll be looking for your feedback, thanks.

No problem, thanks for the feedback.

I have no idea; I have it installed on my Z4 and users have tested it and confirmed it working as well on 4pda. (on Z4) What does the log show? (hold reset button, boot into recovery - must not be connected to pc) Haven't had any reports of blank screen yet. I'll keep an eye out. Also, are you...

Nope, no reboot or shutdown from live system. It's the only bug left in my code.. I'll do a marshmallow firmware in the future, but for now I ported most of the best features and focus mainly on 5.1.1 until the RK marshmallow sources are improved. Thanks for offering to test - appreciate it...

It's 5.1.1 Lollipop, it just has backported gpu, memory and cpu enhancements. Ethernet should work fine on Z4 with version 2, but I can't confirm, other than what the logs show, and all looks fine. I even tested tethering as it's closely related and that did work well. Someone reported their...
