I want to create a profile that maximize the brightness when i launch lg g4 stock camera, but camera won't trigger the profile. I believe it is a common issue with lg g4 camera, because there are some compliants about this in some other sites too. What i wanna know is if it is possible to make camera app to trigger profile any other way. Thanks in advance.

That's strange, are you sure you picked the correct "camera" app while inside the application context?
Yes, i did. I also installed google camera to test if i did something wrong with the profile, but I didnt. Gc triggers, but lg g4 camera wont.
A workaround could be to create a task that opens camera, changes brightness settings. Then make a shortcut on home screen or triggered by gesture. Not sure about restoring the brightness settings, tho.

interesting. this could actually be perfect if it can restore the brightness back. can anybody think of a solution for that?

Only thing I can think of would be if tasker actually responded to your cam closing. But that's a stretch, seeing as it won't respond to the app starting.
Desperate bump
Actually, for an exit, how about a shake gesture? You can set it to return system brightness levels and close the app. And if you happen to shake the phone while not using the cam, it won't really effect anything.

Hi,
I am using a TW-based ROM (Criskelo) and I'd like to disable the screen capture sound without having to completely mute the phone.
Preferably I'd rather not delete the actual sound file as I'd have to do it whenever I upgrade the ROM.
I already did something similar to mute the camera sound with a Tasker profile, but I can't see a "screen capture" event or app in Tasker.
Have I missed this in Tasker?
Thanks!

You can cut it from its original location and paste it to another location usimg root explorer. Whenever you upgrade it you can put it back to its original location. As simple as that.

Is there a way to automate that with Titanium backup I wonder? I'd really would like to avoid too many manual tweaks after each upgrade, especially if I don't upgrade for a while I'll forget all this...

You can mute camera shutter sound by going in camera settings.
Screen shots sounds will be gone too.

But it works on my stock rom LR6
so this worked fine for the first few days- the bit where you get to tap on areas you want the focus to be on (and blur everything else)
usually the aperture circle appears and then you can slide up and down to adjust the f-stop to widen the area that gets blurred.
all of a sudden, the circle no longer sticks so I'm unable to adjust the aperture.
things I've tried but to no avail:
clearing Gallery app data
clearing camera app data
reboot
turn off and then turn on
anyone have this issue please feel free to chime in and find a solution together
Do you have this issue only in the aperture mode or also in the regular camera mode? Meaning do you get the brightness slider wenn tapping for focus in regular camera mode?
Working fine for me Btw.

Hm can't find any setting that would affect that. There is a "restore default" button in the camera settings, have you tried that?
I guess the only other thing I can come up with at this time is a full factory reset

hmm nah I've already deleted data for both cam and gallery apps.. that should work better than reset defaults. it's strange, as though both sliders are the same thing across both apps.

OK so I worked backwards.. quite painfully.. on all the changes I made over the past few days and I worked out what was causing the issue.
It was a problem that I created for myself really.. but one that was totally unexpected and I'm sure is a bug.
I changed all UI animation to None in developer settings to get around quicker and it was the Window Animation that did it. changed it back to .5x and both the camera brightness slider as well as the aperture slider returned.
strange but true.
anyway, SOLVED.
Thanks for posting the solution. Haven't got my P9 yet but I usually turn off Window Animation as well. I can see how they are related but it really shouldn't affect the camera app functionality. Definitely a bug imo.

Hi man,
I tried to do it, but it doesn't work for me. I also had all the UI animations deactivated, and even though I turned them on individually, and simultaneously, nothing happened. The thing is that I do have aperture slider and the camera brightness one, but when i take the shot on wide aperture mode, and open the gallery the wide aperture icon doesn't appear.
Thanks anyway.

I think my problem is not related with the animations and UI tweaks that we can turn off from the developer settings (because i have the sliders working properly). The thing is that... is like the WAM (wide aperture mode) is there on the camera, you can use it, but it really doesn't take any effect on the photo....like a preview mode...nothing else.... I know is weird. But if I go to the gallery, and open the photo that I supposelly took with the WAM, the little icon to change the value is not there. It is a normal photo.
I frequently use the regular quickstart feature for the camera but I also placed two shortcuts for slo-mo and super slo-mo on my homescreen before the upgrade to Pie.
While the existing shortcuts still work I can't seem to place new ones. Was this feature removed?
To me that's a very handy feature because switching modes in the new stock camera app is way too slow.

I don't officially know, but it's entirely possible that these features were removed, just like a ton of other things Samsung changed and removed, particularly with the camera app.

Samsung's vision for the One UI was to make things easier, better and quicker. I can only imagine the things they changed or removed, they somehow decided would be better and easier.

There is an indicator that fast charging is active on my N950N, which I updated to Pie yesterday. Did you check the notification drawer.
Yeah fast charging still works for me as well.
Also, the shortcuts do still work for the camera. On my homescreen I have one camera shortcut for super slo-mo left from before the update to Pie. So clearly they are still burried in the system somewhere.
How could I copy an existing shortcut and edit it to launch, say, the regular slo-mo mode indead?
I am using Nova launcher, I tried the included shortcut feature to add camera activities to the home screen. Didn't have any success with that.
Edit: I have now resorted to using... *sigh* Bixby to launch the camera in slo-mo mode ._. I hope you are happy, Samsung. Look at what you made me do!
Bixby? You can create a shortcuts tova home screen using Bixby? How?

In the Bixby settings you can set up quick commands. When you press the three dots next to the quick command you created you have the option to add it to the home screen.
You can also launch that quick command with the Bixby button instead of a thirdparty app.
I now set the quick command for launching the Slo-Mo mode for the camera to the Bixby button. It's reasonably quick and gets the job done for me.
The quick commands on the home screen take much longer to load. It first loads Bixby, then it executes the linked command and then the app starts.
But with the Bixby button the command itself is being executed right away which is much faster.

This works on all apps
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode
This is seriously very impressive. Nice work, only issue is it breaks the navigation bar and won't come back regardless if changing between gestures or normal navbar. Only fix is a reboot.
It does crash frequently inside an app.

hi, are you the developer of this awesome wide mode enabler?
If so, is it possible to enable dual screen working when folded completely (360 deg) same as lg g8X. i guess screen turns off when the magnetic latch (hall sensor) detected.
Also, possible to turn on dualscreen, switch/swap between screens, through tasker integration? disabling on-screen buttons

- May not possibe to enable dual screen while 360 deg. Framework checks cover state internally, ignore power on message when cover fully opened.
- Turn On or Off dualscreen through tasker integration is possible.
- Switch or Swap screen can use only activities from same package if non privileged apps. Could not possible Switch/Swap from Tasker integration.

Is it optimized for dual notch in wideview?
This app is wonderful! It works for my LG v50, but I have one problem, the wide mode screen is smaller than my phone's screen, leaving black borders. Is there any way to fix this?
Sorry I mean when it crashes in app its due to say keyboard opening, or clicking on a link. I don't think it's to do with the app, just which LG allows you to modify. Like, without root do you think its possible to have widemode on all time even when switching between apps or will we have to always open a widemode using the toggle. It be awesome if you could remap the activity to a button such as Google assistant button or include in floating menu LG has. Or swipes up from navigation bar.

That's not what I meant. The app itself doesn't fully fit either the dual screen or the main screen, it's smaller than both. It leaves borders around the bottom of the dual screen and the right of the main screen, as if the app is too small to fit the display. Perhaps Android 10 will fix some of these issues.

No you cannot. Asus uses different developer kit for twindock. LG & Asus apps aren't cross compatible to each other. Asus dual screen games also didn't work the same on LG
And this app uses LG's own implementation (which is very new, not yet published in public for developers)

I would like to use it to answer with speaker or decline calls. Also use it for quick responses to text.
I have noticed I can skip songs on the Spotify playlist when it's playing by accidentally touching the rear display
( I haven't found anything useful to do with it yet tbh and I hope they improve the functionality of it )
Ohh nice! As of now it's pretty early, I'm sure they'll add those little things during updates

I'm on the EU 12.5.3 and I like it but I think I have no red light flashing on the back screen for notifications although it is enabled in the settings...
One of the issues is the rear screen can only stay on for 30 seconds max which maybe why people think the notification is not working properly ( because you would have to double tap to see it even if it is working properly)
And who likes to set their phone face down anyway? These screens are fragile and very expensive !
Honestly think they just had a screenshot of their home screen and made it the image I never actually seen anyone able to use the mini screen
Yeah they haven't ironed the kinks out pertaining to the rear display.
Out of the box, I had the red led indicator show up although it would be there even when I had no notifications.
I like it as a novelty feature but they really need to address the functionality bit.
