[No Root][6.0+]V10 Camera fully ported to G4 [DISCONTINUED]

[swigor]

If i use the App in Landscape mode the system doesn't chagne to landscape mode. (The android top-bar is left instead of top)
I would like to use a hdmi connection to a external monitor. But this is impossible because android is not switching to landscape mode.

I tried to fix this issue with the "Set Orientation" App https://goo.gl/qlCvDa
But the result is very strange:

It would be wonderful if this problem would be sloved.
This would let me use the LG G4 with an external hdmi Monitor. Great for a Vlog.

Try appsettings in xposed and force automatic orientation for the camera app (this will reorient even if global switch is off).. Hope that helps

G5 Nougat

I know the manual won't work for g5 android 7 but is there a possible update to fix it?

It's been said thousand times that it will get updated when V10 will receive Nougat

So, at some point yener90 managed to remove the 5 minute recording limit and that was awesome.

Yesterday I was recording 4k and it stopped because of file size, at around 4 Gigabytes (the FAT32 limit). I was recording 4k at high bitrate, so the resulting video stopped after almost 9 minutes. The filesystem is the internal and it has no such limit, and it wasn't an "out of space" problem, the phone had plenty of space left.

After some time I recorded another one, same thing.

The toast message clearly stated that the video stopped because of file size (not temperature or some other reason) and I had a lot of space left.

Anyone came across that?

You could change the file system.

Why would I want to do that?

Oh, I thought that you want to capture longer videos.

I do, but the file system is not the problem (as I say in my post above).

Why would anyone want to change ext4 to another?

Because the file size limit is way higher.

Confused me too, you saying that you haven't formatted at fat32? If you have used aosp or something before you would have had it at that.

You have obviously misunderstood something.

You propose changing the internal 32gb memory of an Android device from the ext4 file system to ntfs or exfat in order to be able to have files more than 4gb? Is that what you say?

Do you know what ext4 is?

...

at around 4 Gigabytes (the FAT32 limit).

...

The filesystem is the internal and it has no such limit

Nowhere do I say I have anything formatted as FAT32. I only say that 4gb is the FAT32 limit.

And I go on to make clear that I am talking about the internal memory *which has no such limit*.

That's why it's all strange, that's why I'm asking if anyone has seen it!

Ok here's another way to put it:
Please someone try on a stock G4 to record more than 4gb of 4k high bitrate video with this app and report..

Edit: the 4gb file size for such a video (4k high bitrate) are reached in 9 minutes, if it keeps going without stopping, please report!

because fat32 cannot ever have a file larrger than 4G period

your internal storage is not ext4 formatted. it uses vfuse for compatibilty with external devices (such as when you connect to your pc)

the resulting effective file system type is fat32

Ha ha, nice point man! I should change my ext4 formatted internal storage which has no problem with big files, because fat32 does not support files > 4gb?!! Ever heard of straw man? Look it up.

For starters, can you provide sources for this (mis)information? When (if) you find sources claiming what you wrote, you can tell them from me they don't know what they're talking about. (Fuse is there for sure, not a permanent filesystem though)

Then later, connect your phone however you want to a computer, try to copy a > 4gb file to the internal storage that you say is effectively FAT32, and come back here to tell us what happened.

Explain to me what ext4 formatted anything have you gotten to EVER be recognized by a windows PC, or a Mac??? Ever... without installing some 3rd party software driver?

It's common knowledge mate, in fact, very common knowledge

So you provided 2 links about FAT32 and NTFS. Both are rejected as irrelevant, since the file system in question is ext4 (you didn't search for 'straw man', did you?)

No sources provided for your 'vfuse' claims.

Didn't try, or is not in your interest to tell us what happens if you try to copy a file > 4gb on the (according to your claims) non-ext4-effectively-FAT32 file system of Android.

As for your question, a driver acting as intermediary for ext4 PC connections is in no way related to an Android app (eg this thread's camera app) trying to access its file system internally. Which is the problem I originally mention.

And even if we are talking about Android PC connections, your claims of 'effectively FAT32' are disproved by reality.

Fuse is activated on a 'need to emulate' basis, it doesn't limit android's internal ext4 file system to 'effectively FAT32' as you claim.

If the common knowledge you are referring to is the FAT32 limits, well.. good morning.

If common knowledge is your claims about vfuse, where are links to this common knowledge?

---------- Post added at 09:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

What is actually disturbing is that the symptoms show that this particular app may be using FUSE to access the file system..
Makes kind of sense since it already had much stricter restrictions (5 minute recording limit) so it wasn't expected to reach a 4gb size limit..

You've been informed as to why this cannot happen, it is on you to make it work for you then.

All mention the filesize limitation... unfortunately, it looks like those devices are external sdcards. Maybe try seeing if you can store your video on your exFat or NTFS formatted external sd card.

Looks like it is a config option for kernel mounting the the devices for storage
https://source.android.com/devices/storage/config-example

It's also not up to the dev/modder of this app to configure the end-users devices to break this 4G limit. That will have to fall on the Rom/Kernel developers to do... however, I did find a possible workaround which I am unwilling to try

And, the reason why I keep mentioning Fat32, is because of the wide use of it still across multiple devices... yes, internally our nand is ext4 formatted (for the most part... tho some do have f2fs formatted), and yes, the file size limitation of 4G is obvious for fat32.

 

[EPa]

Look mate, you seem like a nice civilized guy and all, but please stop speculating, making ungrounded claims and then posting irrelevant links.

VFuse? I don't know where you got that. Maybe you mixed vfat and fuse?

Android internal storage not formatted as ext4?

Vfuse effectively fat32 limits specially during connections with pc?

And the latest

It's also not up to the dev/modder of this app to configure the end-users devices to break this 4G limit. That will have to fall on the Rom/Kernel developers to do...

wrong again because:

I just used another video recording app on my G4's internal storage and.. had no problem recording video larger than 4gb in size.

So it IS a problem specific to this camera app (maybe the native too, didn't test that yet).

And please, no more fat32/ntfs/exfat/external-storage links.. Nobody argues about them, it's just that they are irrelevant here.
