Somewhere along the way, I've lost the ability to pull up the remote shutter app on the watch. Anyone else have it? I don't remember what ROM I was running, either a stock rooted or aosp rom on my LG G3. When setting the watch up at first, I did see that Remote Shutter showed as installed.
I'm having a similar problem...
Few days ago I was showing a friend of mine who never seen a smartwatch before what the moto 360 can do, after a few minutes when I opened my moto x 2014 camera just to show him the remote shutter it never showed up.... I tried everything but the option to take the picture with my moto 360 never appeared again.
I even restored the moto 360 and also my moto x to factory settings to start fresh but it didn't work. There's no way I can see that damn remote shutter again on my moto 360...
Anyone knows what happened or have had a similar problem??
Thanks in advance!
Remote shutter works with Google Camera. If you install Google Camera on Phone, wear gets the Remote Shutter app installed too. When you launch Google Camera, you will see the notification on Moto 360, telling that you can use Remote Shutter now.

I'm using a Wolla V6.2 (Sense 8/MM6.0.1) custom rom. I don't believe this is rom specific but if I find out otherwise, I'll re-ask this question in the appropriate location.
So here is my issue. Whenever I enable "Say OK Google any time", the feature that allows you to say OK google from any screen, the HTC camera app won't record videos. As soon as I disable the always listening feature from Google Assistant my camera works as usual. I've downloaded some 3rd party camera and they appear to work fine with the Always listening feature enabled, but prefer the HTC camera for video recording. The 60fps 1080p recording is quite good, especially in good lighting. After doing some research it appears to be an issue with both applications trying to use the microphone at the same time. Anyone have any suggestions? Is anyone else experiencing this with Google Assistant always listening mode and the HTC Camera?
I'm using the latest updated Google Assistant and HTC Camera V7.50.658751.
This has been a reported bug as long as I can remember, since before it was Google Assistant (Google Now?). So it's not surprising that the problem persists on Google Assistant.
Don't recall any fix, aside from the workaround of turning off "Say OK Google any time".
Thanks for the response. Its disappointing that there isn't a real solution but at least I'm not alone. I'm going to try to find a solution using Tasker. I'm trying to disable the always listening feature when my camera app is open and re-enable it once I close it. I'll probably take this problems to the Tasker gurus if I can't solve it.
My LG G3 has part of the touchscreen not working. I want to use it to record 4k video, but the camera settings icon is on part of the screen that doesn't respond to touch. Rotating the phone does not rotate the camera icons. All I'm mainly trying to do is switch the video recording to 4k. It's currently on 1080p.
I've tried 5 or so camera apps, and a few of them will put camera settings in the middle of the screen, but as far as I can tell, most 3rd-party camera apps can't record 4k video. Their settings menu comes up in the middle of the screen, and I can choose 1080p and lower but not higher. If those apps are supposed to be able to record 4k, then I guess there's something else wrong with my phone, because they don't give a 4k option. I've never tried 4k on it before at all.
I've read CameraMX can record 4k video, but it uses the same camera buttons as the stock app, so I still can't press the settings icon button.
Is there some other way to switch the recording to 4k mode? Edit a file somewhere or something? Or another camera app that can do 4k and also puts the settings menu somewhere besides the upper-left of the screen?

...Of course! I forgot all about that kind of thing. And now at midnight I dug around in my boxes of random computer parts knowing there's an OTG cable in there somewhere I bought years ago "because you never know when you'll need an OTG cable."
BOOM. Changed to 4k.
4k video recording was going to be the main use for the phone now, and I was getting ready to sell it because it was stuck on 1080p.
I was focused on this specific camera problem and didn't think to try a more generic search of how to access a dead screen. That might have made this thread unnecessary. Oh well.
Now to look up how to increase the recording bitrate. Thank you.
Hi.
I have been using this forum for years but this is the first time I started a thread so I hope it hasn't been answered before. I did a search but didn't see anything that matches my query.
I have a Sony bravia XF9005 running android 7 and I haven't updated android since I bought it.
I was trying to get a video conferencing app to work on the TV because I had been using screen mirroring from apps on my phone but the quality was hit and miss and it wasn't as convenient as doing it directly on the TV.
I have managed to get Skype Lite, Zoom and Jami onto the TV and used TV App Repo to create shortcuts for them in the launcher.
I have connected a logitech C270 webcam to the TV and got it to work for video. I got this working by switching the TV to pro mode and running Skype which then connected to the camera. When I switch back to normal TV mode Skype, Zoom and Jami all work fine with the camera but the audio mic built-in to the camera is not working.
I got around this problem by connecting a USB mic to another USB port on the TV and it works well when I can get the apps to connect to it. The mic I am using is a Blue Yeti.
In Skype lite if I make a video call to another Skype account everything seems fine until both devices are connected but then I have no audio from the Yeti. I have found a quick way around this is to make an audio call to the other device, the yeti is recognised and the audio works perfectly, then I just switch on the video and both work fine. It is the same for receiving a Skype call, if I answer with video the Yeti doesn't work but if I answer as audio only it works fine, then I can just switch the video on and it's all good again. I'm not too bothered about this as the workaround is easy enough.
In Zoom I have been able to get it to work well with both the camera and the mic but there are problems with it too. When I first installed the latest Zoom app and started a meeting it asks me for permission to use my video and my audio. When I give permission both work perfectly and I have had 4 devices in a meeting with no problems at all. As long as I don't close the app I can go from meeting to meeting with no problem but when I close the app and open it again I have no audio from the Yeti. I found a workaround on this as well but it is not as easy as the Skype one. Before I open Zoom I go to the app settings and permissions and disable the microphone permission for Zoom. Then when I create a meeting the app asks me for the mic permission and everything works perfectly again.
I have gone into the developer options and changed the Select USB Configuration to Audio Source. I have also allowed zoom to automatically switch on the sound in one of its settings but neither has made any difference. It seems like after the app is closed it doesn't recognise the mic on the next use.
Is there a way of automatically disabling a permission for an app after the app is closed or does anyone know of another workaround. I know that the apps aren't designed to work on the Android TV version of Android but bar these little problems they do work well.
I haven't really played around with Jami as much as the others so I haven't looked to see if I can get the audio working with it but the video works fine. I also tried the normal Skype app but it tends to turn itself into portrait mode when you are making calls or changing settings whereas the Skype Lite app runs perfectly in landscape all the time and it is much quicker too.
I was going to try Tellybean but I haven't got around to it yet plus most people already know Skype and now Zoom whereas I'm not sure how wide Tellybean is known.
Thanks for any help.
Hmm, a difficult situation. Have you solved this problem yet? A friend of mine works with conferences on https://brightvisionevents.co.uk/conferences / and he often gives me advice about my work because I often use conferences. I had a similar situation. Most likely, this is an incorrect operation of the microphone drivers. I think either reinstalling Windows or removing the microphone drivers and installing them from the official website of your Blue Yeti microphone can help you. I hope my advice helped you and you will solve your problem. Write if you have succeeded in everything, maybe it will help someone. Good luck!
Hi all,
I have a Nvidia shield TV with built in chromecast which works perfectly.
I could always cast directly with YouTube or whatever or use googles home app for mirroring video and audio when I wanted something that does not have build in cast option.
This has always worked with my opo1, opo3t, opo5 and my wife's Samsung s10.
Now with my rm5g I can cast when there is a cast option in the app flawlessly.
But the issue I have is when I try to cast/mirror with Google home.
Some how when I start mirroring everything works BUT sound keeps also coming from my mobile as well. If I lower volume or silence on mobile, it silences it on my shield as well.
The sound should be handled on my shield only and not on both devices, since now I need to have 100% volume on phone and duplicated sound on TV..... That's not what I want and it never needed this.
Normally you only have the mirrored video/chrome/etc in screen but no audio on your phone.
Is there a setting I'm missing on my red magic 5g? Or is this a flaw in the phone/software?
Does it work with you guys? For example mirroring a video on Chrome with Google home mirror function.
(ps, I have already looked in the home app, my shield TV and my phone but I can't find a solution to have the audio only on my shield. / I have not touched any settings when I changed my mobile from one plus 5 to red magic 5g / it still works perfectly on my opo5 and my wife's Samsung)
Nobody has this issue or have tried if it worked?
Just to add on the above info, reboot, factory reset was not helping.
I noticed the same issue with my Red Magic 5G, but unfortunately I don't know how to fix it. I think this is something only Nubia can fix.
Cast tru my 2 google nests and Hub are fine. Weird bug.

So your Google nest works fine, you don't have "double" audio then?
Kinda weird.
During the last days I've tried casting with my chromecast receiver on my other TV, a TV in my office and at a friend's place. Same result btw.
So it's not in the hardware of chromecast or Nvidia shield. It has to be in the red magic.
No double audio on my 3 devices. ??
I do have doubles displayed in the device cast menu but it doesnt affect anything.
I would like to bump this again to see if anyone else have this problem and a possible fix?
In the mean time my red magic had a software update, Google home updated a few times, my Nvidia shield had a software update.
I kinda hoped that 1 of these would fix it but I am still left with double audio. Right now my only solution is to cast what I want with audio on the phone and put my phone in the kitchen with the door closed so I won't be bothered by the double audio.
It's not really convenient....
Could anyone assist me?
Ps, tried a full reset on my 5g,no luck either.
I have been using a few GoPros inside my car, mounted with jaw clamps to record some of my driving adventures. I control the these camera remotely via the Smart Remote for GoPro. Mostly it works ok.
Just got my S20 Ultra a few days ago, and god damm the picture/video quality is phenomenal!
Does anybody know, if there is a way I could setup my S20 ultra phone in my car via a clamp of some sort like the GoPro Jaw clamp and have it start recording videos remotely via an app or remote, or voice command etc?
By voice you can use Bixby "hi Bixby record a video with the rear camera" should work...or even just "hi Bixby record a video".
Google assistant may work if you have gcam installed but unsure, using hey Google record a video crashes Google assistant for me, but I also do not have gcam installed.
I would imagine any of those Bluetooth camera shutter buttons (i.e. selfi stick remotes) would work, however you would need to be in camera app to begin with.
