Hi community!
I'm not really satisfyed with the flashlight intensity and the tourch function of the device. Compared to my old Mi 9 Lite the difference is tremendoes!
I tried to access the test menues via *#*#6484#*#* , went to the "Notification (LED) section and saw that there ist a slide control for the flash. It is set to 1/3 of the possible intensity. Setting it to max. reveals the whole potential of the flashlight and explains the bad lowlight picture quality while using the camera and also the mediocre torch function. Unfortunately ,as this is only a test there is no way to save the settings. Does any of you has an idea where the phone parameters can be modified? Path to the file?
I bought the phone because of the cam, among other things, but due to the above fact it turns to be worse than that of the 3 y.o. Mi 9 Lite!
I have a suspition that the reviewers used a different version of the device, since I cannot explain such high ranking for the camera.
I'd appreciate your help

how to get this seting permanently?
The path is:
/sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness
Default value is 75.
You can do "echo 200 > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness" but only when the flashlight is turned on.
When you turn it on again it will be 75.
Figured out a script that do:
watch -n3 "echo 160 > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness"
But it's a nasty hack.
Don't have a clue how to do it better
How do you access the path?
Is root needed for this action?
So, for my understanding you were able to modify the flashlight parameters, but there's no way to save them?
Like I tried to modify the intensity as shown in the above screenshots - the setting are always back to the default ones
The default settings aren't good enough to shoot good pics under the low light conditions.
I wonder why did Xiaomi do that?
Yes, root is needed.
I just played with torch parameters. They reset to default 75 every turning on the flashlight. When the flashlight is on, it accepts new values, making the LED brighter. So i made a script that overwrites the brightnes every 3sek. It's the best I could think of
I'll try to modify the photo flash soon, but I don't think it will work. The flash is to short to have time to modify file.

Hi folks,
I have searched all over with no answers.
My rom (mightyrom war) has auto screen rotation enabled in multiple apps and all it does is kill performance for me and interfere with s2u2.
There is nothing in my settings or apps to change this.
Does anyone know of a way to KILL auto rotation and only allow it to work with the keyboard opened?
Your input is much appreciated.
get on your registry and go to
HKC\software\htc\htcsensonr\AutoRotation = "1" (change it to "0" )
THANK YOU!!!
Been driving me nuts.
Doesn't work for me
This doesn't work for me - at least not for my purpose. The ROM I'm using doesn't auto-rotate based upon which app is running. I want it to always stay in landscape - unless I manually rotate it (I have the arrow key next to the power button set to rotate 180, via keyboard config).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349760
This doesn't work. I tried disabling all the oem_misc.dll devices. I2C1 seems to disable rotation to portrait when closing the keyboard, but also crashes it! :-(
Well, if all else fails, you can always physically intervene. I decided to just hot glue a rare-earth magnet onto the edge. It holds the little magnet inside the screen up so that the phone always thinks the keyboard is open. This finally sticks it in landscape.

Magnet is right there, it's very small. I colored it black with a permanent marker so it's really quite tolerable. They sell very small ones at radio shack.

You wouldn't happen to know what it is/if it's any different for CDMA version would ya? I went to both HKEY Classes Root, HKEY Current User and HKEY Local Machine, I didn't see a HKC, also I didn't see an AutoRotation entry closest I saw was GSensor.
there's a few function/options in the camera settings that i was hoping someone could explain in there words kinda real world meanings. ill post a SS of a few of the ones that could use a easy interpretation. thanks

These are typical settings for any camera that will accept manual settings.
White balance basically measures the color 'temperature' to get the most accurate colors possible.
ISO is light sensitivity. It can be altered from automatic for different lighting situations manually.
I believe metering is the location the camera will take a sample check for lighting level to give the best overall light balance for the WHOLE picture. For instance, center is default and if there were a lit light bulb in the center of the picture you are taking, it would correct the lighting of the entire photo just based on that area.
deff the type of answer i was looking for..so there is no optimal setting for those reasons, correct? is there a camera app that automatically attempts to set most options for best picture/results that anyone knows of our would recommend? thanks
ps. any thought from anyone on the auto contrast setting or any other important but not mentioned setting?

Typically, most of these settings are set to Auto to make it easy to take photos. Most amateur and pros will adjust the settings manually to get the best possible picture.
The settings can be changed manually to adjust for different environments.
I guess a good example would be a dimly lit room. You can take a picture with the flash and it may be an acceptable photo. However, if you know what settings to use (and it's a good quality camera), you do not need the flash and the quality of the photo will be completely different. This is also why you see professional photographers use several light stands to provide more indirect lighting because using a flash can wash out and cause unpleasant shadowing effects in photos.
Hello everyone, im a new user of lenovo p2 (Stock rom nougat) and im really happy with all phone features.... except for the camera.
I Like the design and features of the stock camera from p2, but i dont like its stabilization when taking a shot (if you move your hand 0,01mm your photo will be blurred). I Tried some cams apps on the playstore and the only one that gives me what i want (fast shot, simple design, few features to use sometimes, no ads, good quality) is the "Bacon camera". Its very good,but i found a bug in p2 with the screen resolution (not the photo) because of the navigation bar. I dont like the nav bar so i use fingerprint gestures and keep the bar hidden. but when i open the camera with the bar hidden (always) it add a black stripe on the screen and "flats" the image preview (when the picture is taken its ok). Im downloaded this camera yesterday and i think it wasnt bugged before (not sure), but then i downloaded a lot of cams apks and the bacon start bugging. I did hard reset today and problem persists.
Img 1 : "Flat screen"
Img 2: Opening camera with nav bar on
img 3: Removing the nav bar after img 2 (how it should be in img 1)
I dont know if its the app or my phone, if someone could download the app to test i would appreciate!
other questions:
- Will deodexed stockn allow me to turn the nav. bar of permanently? (so i could use fp gestures plus gestures from below the screen)
- There is any camera apk simple and good like the stock (with working features), but with better quality and stabilization? I dont know if its hardware o software, but when i take a picture in "CamScanner", for example, the preview quality is good, but when the shot is taken the picture become blured.....
Thanks and sorry for the long post!!

Is there any way to forcefully enable AOD on Mi 10T? Via build.prop or tweaking MIUI itself; I just want to try this while my phone screen is off, that's all

It's a fun novelty, we should all admit.
I tried installing the Always on apk from the m10 on my 10T but nothing changed.
Then I changed my region to India (global rom) and the AOD option appeared in settings but when I applied it, nothing happened.
Always on displays are only available on OLED screens that can illuminate single pixels. LCD will never have always on displays so this thread needs closing.

LCDs are never meant to have AODs, yes, I get the whole point out of it, but My point is, there are ways that other MIUI devices, i.e., RN9Pro curtana, with a lil bit of flashing some AOD Mods thru Magisk have proven that MIUI AOD can be enabled, what I'm trying to convey is that, os there anyone here, with the knowledge and enough curiosity that could help people like me to enjoy a bit stupid but fun way of "messing around" with the android framework, that's all. You don't need to "Close" this thread.
Honestly, ain't anyone here amazed by that MIUI AOD? It consumes power because we have an LCD panel, yes, but we can turn it off anytime. It's both the novelty and satisfaction that gave birth to this stupid but curious idea.
It's not that much of a novelty, i had aod 10 years ago on several phones... It just comes to the fact that you don't really don't need that
si think this is a good idea! probably all LCD displays know aod handling. It just doesn’t allow it because of the brutal reduction in energy use!
Iomarius said:
LCD 永远不会有 AOD，是的，我明白了全部要点，但我的观点是，其他 MIUI 设备，即 RN9Pro curtana，通过 Magisk 稍微闪烁一些 AOD Mods 已经证明了可以启用 MIUI AOD，我想传达的是，这里有任何人，有知识和足够的好奇心，可以帮助像我这样的人享受有点愚蠢但有趣的方式来“玩弄”安卓框架，仅此而已。您无需“关闭”此线程。

How do i start AOD？RN9pro
My A5 (2017) is running on magisk rooted stock android 8.
I've been messing around trying to get better audio from this phone, and have found a method to... at very least make it look like I'm using LDAC.. at best actually use it.
I'm unsure if I truly am using LDAC, or if there is any difference to the audio quality at all.
(im the master of the placebo effect )
I use SetEdit w/ Feature Pack to keep a few Global settings set to 1 (true) . After a certain event involving the headphone, or a random amount of time (idk) the "_supports_ldac" settings I've changed go back to 0 (false). SetEdit keeps my changes persistent.

Sidenote, this little tweak FEELS like it has an effect on the audio.
& I can do something similar with my A51 (non-rooted, One UI 4.1) & the UHQ upscaling/bit ajustment built into the settings that is usually grey-ed out.. and dedicated for wired devices?
also works with different audio devices.. like my Skull Candy Uproar, and cheap BlueHive earbuds (035-7309-4)
Now thats all fine and dandy.. but......
but I cannot set the "Bluetooth Audio Codec" in dev settings to LDAC, when clicked it returns back to SBC. my only supported codec
same goes for sample rate, bit rate and sort of the LDAC Playback Quality. My A51 behaves the same.
I can change the playback quality from Best Effort, and it sticks.
But if I click the option, the selector is back to Best Effort... AND MY SELECTION of Optimized for Audio Quality still sticks. weird.
--------------------------------------------------------
Here is screenshots of the A51.
If I launch the android shortcut "com.sec.android.app.soundalive.activity.UHQUpscalerActivity" the page below opens, and I can freely change the settings and they stick as long as SetEdit is doing its thing.
I can't figure out how to access this page without launching the activity...
-----------------------------------------
To sum it all up, I have some nooby questions.
Am I actually getting LDAC & UHQ upscaling with unsupported devices?
Is there a way to test the truth of what I'm seeing and "hearing"?
Is this weirdly specific "hack" and my curiosity confusing enough? or am I insane?
