Feature Reauest Thread - Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers

Thinking about whipping something up as im bored and have access to an a50. What features for a rom would be wanted?

I think one of the most important requests of the community would be to enable camera2api on this phone to be able to use GCam's night mode... but one can only dream

Bro Aosp Rom with Fp and Bt Calls working will be appreciated since fp optical and chipset is exynos thats the main bugs in GSI roms now availiable
bro join the a50 telegram group easy to commuciate there

Please enable camera2api so we can install gcam.

Aosp rom :fingers-crossed:

Custom fingerprint animations
I don't think it's possible tho ?

I'm just getting back into the community after years, the a50 gets no love. I like it, myself. I would love to join any groups. Im just tipping toes in rn tho yall its been a long absence

Aosp is def on the list, but everyone know im a touchwiz kinda dude

Tbh. anything would be good at this point..

Is this true that Camera2api will be enabled automatically with android 10 update?

I think people (me included) wants something like pixel experiense with gcam enable.

Is there a Samsung device who got that with the Android 10 update?

Maybe someone said it earlier , or maybe not . However I am saying . Also please correct me if i am wrong as i am less experienced .
1. We really like to use Secure folder . Considering adding that patch .
2. HDR on 25MP would be very nice.
3. I don't really know whether camera2api can be enabled with full level 3 support since manufacturer limited it . Please take a look .
4. Samsung DEX app maybe a very good choice.
5 .Edge lighting and edge screen is much preferred
6. ROM CONTROL would be nice ❤
7. Aroma installer with pre-rooted magisk
8. Custom changeable fingerprint animation [ I am too noob ]
9. Always on dolby atmos ( like yash bro's lightrom )
10. Smart capture ( though it's available to stock )
11. Auto call recorder support for all regions
12. Jetblack UI ( like lightrom = #000000 )
13. Fake Knox 0x0 status . Device status official
14. Vibration control ,multiple wallpaper feature
15. Some oneui2 features maybe...............
16.Silent Camera , Ability to play music in camera ,Ability to use camera in call, Build.prop tweaks , Speed tweaks,
Battery tweaks, Disabled Ads , Init.d Support, Ability To Disable Screen on when a Message is Received , GoodLock apps , patched Dual Messenger for all user apps , Dual speaker mod , Disabled high brightness warning , Patched liboemcrypto for Netflix ,
Don't get mad at me bro . I am not forcing you . Just giving suggestions .THANKS :like

Definitely some type of desktop UI would be great, but I'm not sure how we could use it. (USB 2.0 port) One thing sure we got a big nice screen

Cam2api is the main thing we want for night sight and portrait gcam

At least Android 10 with One UI 2.0 brought a better manual mode to the Galaxy S9 and S10, with a possibility to change the exposure time and aperture. Let's hope that this feature is also added to the A50 when Android 10 arrives.

I don't think we will get these, because why would we have limitations right now? But lets hope the best! Maybe there is a way for that api2 unlock.
I saw a magisk module for api2 unlock, has anyone tried it?

Aod mod on stock rom stopped working, noise cancellation microphone stopped working and sound was terrible so i disabled that too
overall i love and i hate my pixel the same time ..
i upgraded to a galaxy s9 yeh a bummer but is the only phone so far that i can get dual speaker aod is fine and pixel 9.0 rom installed
my pixel xl was a disaster warranty doesn't cover anything because i live in Cyprus
microphone problems, wifi not connecting (motherboard issue ,i fixed it by DIY added a piece of paper where the wifi chip sits on board), battery wear, overheating issues etc )
and then my mom dropped it by an accident so she had to buy me a brand new phone and with the s9 ambient music like pixel 2 xl does work!!!

Topshot not available. Working fine for everything except that. @cstark27 if you need any logs or help with pixel 1, I will be happy to share whatever data you need. Thanks
Same here also willing to test for pixel 1
Managed to get the latest beta to install, copy the downloaded file and replace Google camera.apk in system/priv-app folder, rename the beta to Googlecamera.apk, it will still crash when attempting to load, now install the downloaded beta over the top. Camera should run now, ?

Cons:
1) Quick Notification UI is fugly. No more quick settings for wifi and Bluetooth
2) No rootless substratum support
3) design language (gesture, recent app UI, everything is rounded)
4) wifi and charging issues on OG Pixel
5) not as smooth as Oreo
6) click on the left
7) status bar icons a mess. It's meant for phones with notch
Good things on Pie
1) superb battery
2) better security
3) GCam mod with night shift

Surprised. But maybe it's because I am coming from Nougat. I never used Oreo.
- No battery or wifi issues here.
- I seem to like the quick notification ui.
- it's very smooth. No lags or stutters whatsoever
- rounded corners, never noticed these but seem to be okay to me. I guess it's a personal preference.
- What I don't like is the default Phone app, it's not as versatile as in for example Miui.
I think Arnova's app has support for Oreo. You should try that one.

That's still buggy
On Playstore we can update Google Camera to version 6.1.021.220943556. In this build we have nightsight and the effect so better than older build.
But I think Csstark27 or another moder may help us to portrait. Thanks very much!!
How come every camera mod (I've tested) records 240fps slowmo in 1080p, not 720p as intended? Because of that 240fps is no use due to laggy video with frame drops. Noticed that first on CameraNX and now on those new mods.
Does anyone has the same issue?

Get all google pixel 3 camera features

Hi,
I installed the Bliss rom based on Android 9 because is the only recently updated Pie rom based on which I can install and run the official google camera version 6.1.021.
It works fine with video, camera, night sight but there aren't others pixel 3 camera features like the portrait mode / bokeh and photobooth.
Why?
I read on a blog that changing the device info in build.prop file to:
ro . product . model=Pixel 3
ro . product . name=blueline
ro . product . device=blueline
The camera app recognize the device as a Pixel 3 and it enables all missing features.
I tried to do this but the app crashes when I open it.
someone tried this method? I'm not interested to use other camera mod as workaround to get this features, i'm interested to get them on the original camera app.
Someone have any suggest?
Thank you guys!
Bye :highfive:

How about "I don't want spend hundreds dollars to buy a new phone until mine works perfectly and I may have all features of the new one just with few little tricks"?
Well, you may not want to, that's fine, not making your decisions for you. But even if you do get the original pixel gcam on your n5x, the performance will be bad. So it's better if you either use the available gcam mods, or just buy a pixel 3.

Question question regarding banking apps in Egypt and Rom stability

Hello,
i have ordered an F3 phone and it's currently been shipped to my location, i don't plan on using the default MUI stock rom as i don't like the idea of bloatware
so my question is what is the current most stable lightweight Rom for that phone that have no issues with banking app speically the once in Egypt like CIB-bank or AL-Ahly-bank
sorry if my question is a bit naive and thanks in advance for your replays
I recommend https://xiaomi.eu

that's great thanks a lot for the information.
Your choice is between a debloated variant of MIUI (like Xiaomi.eu ROM) or AOSP (original Android UI Design).
I personally prefer AOSP because its clean and smooth, however I'm on Xiaomi.eu because MIUI Dolby Atmos and MIUI Camera App are only on MIUI.
In terms of Banking Support. You just have to make sure you are passing Google SafetyNet.
That's the most likely reason why a Banking app might not work for you, in the case your OS is failing SafetyNet-Check.

Firstly, thanks a lot for your reply and the information you provided.
Secondly, aren't there any alternatives in the AOSP Rom for these 2 apps especially the Dolby one since I'm more interested in the quality of sound rather than the camera?

As a good camera alternative there are Google Camera Ports ("Gcam") which support many devices. There are many devs/porters of Gcam with varying feature-set and bugginess. They can be ok/good, but don't have all features that the MIUI Camera has, but it comes close. Can also crash sometimes. Some people like Gcam over MIUI Cam, but for me it's a definite opposite. MIUI Cam photos clearly show more details for me.
Best website for Gcam Ports:
Google Camera Ports Download
Modified Google Camera ports by BSG, Arnova8G2, ivanich, and others. Download hub for GCam ports.
www.celsoazevedo.com
As for Dolby Atmos. There are Dolby Atmos Magisk Modules but they sound like utter rubbish, unfortunately. Those are ports of Razer's DA and Motorola's DA, however they simply make audio sound virtualised (like inside a tin can), instead of expanded and richer.
So they are nothing compared to MIUI Dolby Atmos.
You can find Equalizer apps on the Play Store as an alternative, but well, those are not Dolby Atmos. ^^
If sound's (and cam) is important to you, get Xiaomi.eu ROM. Also set Dolby Atmos to Video Mode. ^^
That's my take
Edit:
However, should also note that Xiaomi.eu isn't simple. It has many Xiaomi system apps. It does not have ads or third party apps pre-installed, but I should mention. ^^ Since you were looking at something minimalistic. And MIUI isn't that.

A great amount of information I have to say, well it's not like I'm totally minimalistic person but I hate bloatware, ads, and the feeling that my data is been used by the company that I bought my phone from, however, this answer helped me on getting a better picture on what are the pros and cons of using the original Rom debloated vs AOSP Rom still thinking which way to go tho since the phone will arrive in 4 days till then I will keep looking for more information.
in the end thanks a lot for the time and information and time you provided me.
