LG/Oreo update: Low light camera test (Bright Mode) - LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion

Here is my test for the new features of the camera in low light, and especially the new Bright Mode.
For the manual mode, this is not a test. It was with the auto settings (button on the right) just for reference. We know that it can deliver a better pic.
1- Auto Mode: Auto, Bright mode OFF
2- Bright Mode: Auto, Bright mode ON
3- AI Mode
4- Gcam Arnova v7Beta9: Auto
5- Manual Mode: Auto settings

Camera

the camera on the phone sucks at night does anybody know if there is a registry edit to enable a night mode or can it even be done maybe even a low light mode thanks for any and all help in advance
Night Mode
In the camera settings, there is a night option in the Whit Balance settings
I concur with nickf123654's suggestion of adjusting the white balance setting. But don't expect to be able to take photos outdoors at night all of a sudden.

Switching of brightness doesn't work

In a manual and automatic modes switching of brightness doesn't work.
I move the slider - the screen is shone with identical force
version firmware - 1.29.401.11
I did Hard Reset - doesn't work again.
Tested sensors in the program Lux Auto Brightness - brightness is switched (in a manual and automatic modes)
what a.. ?
well.. P-sensor doesn't work

Are there any hacks to change the rules for auto brightness?

My tablet when on auto brightness becomes very dark in unlit rooms and I can barely see it videos or detail.

I am not sure if this works with stock roms, but if you install PhilZ touch recovery from the thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2367151
You have options in the advanced menu to change the response time for auto brightness. The default is 1 minute, you will need to tap about 4 times to get it down to 0, as it counts up to 5.
Which sped up the delay from going from one extreme to the other in ambient lighting.
If you install his custom roms you also get options to adjust the brightness intensity in 5 steps while auto brightness is on. I found this out after some time messing with my settings.

Lux Auto Brightness - perfect app for brightness tuning - you can set you own profile - matching desired screen brightness to sensor reading, and the process is very easy.
Short info, taken from app description:
Lux isn't your ordinary brightness app. It intelligently adjusts the brightness of your display based on the environment you're in. If, for example, you step into a dimly lit room, Lux will automatically lower the brightness of your display to make it not only comfortable to read, but to also preserve battery power.
Lux provides the option to automatically adjust the backlight at fixed intervals (periodic mode), when a change in environment is detected (dynamic mode), or when the phone wakes from sleep. It's also possible to adjust the backlight manually. Simply disable automatic mode and you can use it like a traditional brightness tool!
Perhaps the best thing about Lux is that you can teach it how to behave. If the backlight is too bright or dim for your liking, simply open the provided Dashboard, adjust the brightness slider to the level you desire, then hold the link button. Lux will use this new 'link' as a reference in future.
lux and velis both work. i paid for both, but i prefer lux.

LG G4 save as RAW on automatic

Hi everyone
Does anyone know if the lg g4 supports shooting in RAW in automatic mode? Or is in manual mode only? If so kinda a bummer. I spent about 10 min looking around but doesn't seem so.
Thanks.
Manual mode only, but you have to activate this
That's what I've seen so far as well and some reviews confirm it - RAW is only available in manual mode..
Can a custom camera app fix this?
If you just go into Manual mode, and don't make exposure adjustments, I think it will basically behave like Auto. It just shows more info and options on the screen.
But you could use Manual mode to also get RAW output, without really requiring more attention/fiddling by the user.
Manual mode are same as auto mode but you can access extra setting within it..
LG auto mode seems laggy when comes to environment changing from light to dark..
That's what manual mode come into used
Manual mode also save 2 different file, standard jpeg and raw(if its enable) and the jpeg processing quality is same in auto..
The downside of manual setting is it's locked exposure setting if ae-l is enabled that's is when we're playing with iso and shutter speed.
See attachment..that's auto in manual mode
You could make some changes to camera_config or media_profiles.xml to force RAW in auto. You might break something, but you can probably do it that way.
Agreed, just set the camera to manual mode and use it as though it's in automatic - it will adjust itself automatically as though it were still in auto mode, so long as you don't start fiddling with the settings.
About the only thing you'll not get in manual mode is automatic HDR photos - I think that's the only thing that won't automatically happen in manual mode, the only difference from auto mode.

On Full Brightness…. Auto sensor kicks in by default !!?

If I keep the brightness to the Maximum, I notice that in bright sunlight/extremely bright indoors, the screen gets Automatically even brighter and dims when the phone notices the environment is not that bright !!!!
You can experiment by shinning a flash on the top right side of the phone with slider on max brightness.
Isnt it stupid – When the user have disabled auto brightness or any power saving modes the phone keeps getting bright and dark
I cant believe Samsung has let it pass this to the production models…
bump - anybody ?
