Note 8 Snapdragon pie beta question - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Guys those who have installed pie beta on note 8, can u check if new camera processing is give in the beta or not?? Note 9 has very good dynamic range due to the processing(clicks pics at different expoaures and combine them in real time). Anyone can tell if same is given to n8 or not.. Also what about dolby atmos and dual volte????

Not sure what you mean about the camera. What you're describing is HDR, which is present on the Note 8 Oreo camera as well as the Pie camera.
Dolby Atmos is present, but only works over Bluetooth or headphones. The phone speakers are not capable of using Atmos.
I have no idea what dual VoLTE is.

The fundamental difference between simple VoIP and VoLTE is that VoLTE requires a Quality-of-Service or QoS component.*
Basically de difference between VoIP and VoLTE is that VoLTE requires a QoS (Quality of Service) component.
Typically, over-the-top VoIP applications like Skype and Google Voice rely on the Internet to deliver packets. The problem is that Internet delivery is done on a “best effort” basis; all you can do is get your packets to the cloud and cross your fingers. VoLTE, on the other hand, uses the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and new radio access network features to ensure low latency, improved error correction in fringe areas, and other features that guarantee voice service as good as or better than any we’ve ever experienced.

dual volte is simulataneous volte capability on both the sims(on dual sim phones).
HDR was present before bt is weak compared to note 9/one plus 6 which in the background takes multuple photos at different exposure and combines them in real time. the best way to check if new processing is there or not is
point the camera towards a light source(like a tubelight) and click a photo and see if there is any difference between the live preview(viewfinder) and the actual captured photo.
also is scene optimiser in the camera given?

Dual VoLTE - the leaked Pie builds are only for the US Snapdragon models, so no dual SIM phones
HDR - I just took side by side photos with my Note 9 and my Note 8. Photos look identical. But again, the process you're describing is also how the Note 8 worked on Oreo.
Scene Optimizer - No it isn't present. But you can turn on a "Food" setting for taking pics of food.
AR Emojis are present, but Super Slow Motion is not present. Which is weird, because I thought they added it to the Note 8 on Oreo, but I may be wrong.

Disappointed in Lollipop implementation by Samsung ( CameraV2 API, RAW support etc )

After a day playing with LP on the Note 4 I'm a bit disappointed in Samsung's implementation. For me, the wait for LP was actually only for core feature (as I was perfectly happy with KitKat); Better camera support with LP !! The Note 4 has pretty amazing camera hardware for a phone, which was under KitKat limited by the OS.
Well things have NOT changed with Lollipop. Still no shutter speed control, no support for RAW. It's not LP Camerav2 API compatible Not even with thirdparty camera apps, who do support this on lollipop on other devices. According some developers I spoke (for instance from Camera FV-5) this is because Samsung has been cutting corners (again?) with result that these enhanced options probably will never be available on the Note 4 devices. If they manage to work around it, it will be probably by the time I already have my S6 and Note 5. Yes I know its only a phone camera, but with more (manual) control you can create amazing effects and with RAW support touching up a picture is so flexible and easy in light-room or Photoshop.
Another annoying thing in KK was the recent app button lag. Its a little better but still it lags (I rather think this is touchwiz UI related and not Android related). Finally a crazy move of Google, is to remove the silent mode and replace it with a "partly" broken notification priority schema and Samsung made this even worse by removing scheduled priories from this new feature.
So yes, the phone feels a little snappier in use then when I was running KK, but this limited LP implementation is a bummer for everyone who uses the Note camera regularly. For me it's for sure not what I expected nor I had hoped for. Some other things that are not implemented in the Samsung's lollipop release is the Multi-user option and Ambient light option. Honestly I would have rather waited for a month (or two) to receive a proper (more complete and less bugs) Lollipop then what it is now
EDIT: FIX for recent apps button lag in TouchWiz props to @2000Hugo works on kk and lp
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/fix-recent-apps-button-lag-touchwiz-lp-t3033000
my 2 cents
I was wondering when such a thread would show up, it was long overdue. ?
You already have an app in general section which can capture raw pics in kitkat itself, check it out if you want. This is the very first release it's not fair to talk about recent lag, hope they tweak it in subsequent releases

@bala_gamer I'm aware of that, but the the beauty is (or in case of the Note 4 rather was) that with LP this could be done straight from within the stock camera app (shutter speed too). The recent apps lag was already a problem in KK so honestly I think its more TW UI then android OS related. So yes I think it would be fair if they would have fixed this by now. (But I'm perfectly happy with a lagging recent app button too) Limited camera driver implementation is a whole other story. I think that ship is sailed already for the Note4

I'm thinking to buy Note4 but no RAW and manual shutter really hurt me. Can you tell me is there night mode and portrait night available there in Lollipop? Because since 4.4 Samsung removed them(note2/note3) in the scene menu and only leave auto mode.

That's not about complaints because RAW and manual shutter will be included on Galaxy S6 but considered Note4 is still very new and no reason to not implement it for us.
RAW is even a bit more important on camera phone because the white balance, exposure and jpg compression is just too bad implemented.

To be fair, auto mode detects low light situations very accurately and the results aren't half bad, especially for a phone.

Really I don't think so, it may be good for you and some other guys but not me. I've tested the Note4 today in a phone store and portrait night mode will only enabled in extreme low light environment and there is even still no pure night mode available.

Partly true, I don't have a DSLR but know my way in Adobe products. Shutter speed and f-stop control can be found on a 40 dollar camera and is basic photo making knowledge (don't have to be a rocket scientist to use it for great effects) In previous Android versions this was "as we all know" not possible due to limited hardware support from the camera API. One of the major improvements in LP is that this is now possible . Well it is on other LP devices, but not on the Note 4 and if my information is right (I'm no developer) it will not happen .

While it may now be possible in LP, I'm not surprised Samsung hasn't implemented these changes yet. These are great features but also very niche. Most users wouldn't care about them or even use them in everyday situations. As such, Samsung may very well implement them down the line (which would be great), but again for most people no one would notice them being there or not...so Samsung focuses instead on other priorities (like ensuring full functionality with Gear VR, which has the potential to make them a ton of money if it gets more mainstream, etc).

OK, I see the need for more control over camera modes.
However, I did not quite get what you're trying to say here. Do you own the Note 4 or you just tried a display model in a store? And if you do own the device, did you try it in a store environment? It's no surprise that night mode didn't kick in, stores tend to have lights on and whatnot. ?
I'm not arguing about how the lack of Night mode may be a drawback for some, I'm just not entirely sure you have tested the device properly enough to form such a strong opinion.

Nope, you exactly get what I meant. Yes, I don't really have the device but I like to shoot photo with night mode to have the best quality during at indoor environment(most people would not do that so auto mode don't turn on but this is my personal preference). And Note4 seems to lack of pure night mode, even though the screen is completely dark, there is still only portrait night mode on.
I"m started to thinking about Galaxy S6 because RAW and manual shutter speed is implemented(so I can create a night mode myself) but it is just way over priced and excess my budget.

I don't think he has the Note 4 @iridaki and I agree a store environment is not the best place to test a phones camera. But I do own the Note 4 since release and I have to agree on the night mode. Also it's not only night shots that benefit amazingly from shutter and f-stop control. You can create more dept in landscape shots and nice effects with moving objects against a steady background too. They could do it with the Nexus devices with the LP upgrade (not fair to compare I guess) but also the One plus and LG could do it. So then I'm disappointed that Samsung left a (for me at least) major LP feature on the drawingboard instead of implementing it.
Oh this a pretty good article on what it should have been (and is on other LP devices)

OK, so you don't own the device, therefore you cannot dismiss my personal opinion, because I have been using this phone for 3 months now and I've taken hundreds of photos with it in a variety of places and situations.
I understand you need Night mode and that is perfectly reasonable but posting in the forums of a device you do not own to say that its camera is not good enough for you, is a bit provoking.
I believe the S6 will indeed have an improved camera but I'm sure other devices available now and later will too. And I hope you'll be able to get one of them and be happy with it.

I am not saying that the lack of Night mode and shutter speed control couldn't be construed as drawbacks, I'm with you on that. It was more his attitude "It may work for you but not for me" which was very arrogant for someone who hasn't actually tried the device in everyday circumstances.
Anyway, I see the source of frustration and I agree that it'd be nice if Samsung had taken advantage of the new LP APIs.
I think that they've done a good job with Lollipop, everything works nice and smooth, the recent apps works perfectly fine for me...the only thing I dislike is that there is no animation when clicking the recent apps button while in an app...also camera works good, it's a shame there is no night mode but image stabilisation does the job pretty good(they should have added an option to turn it off or on though).

Google camera HDR+

Can the Google camera HDR+ be ported to Motog5s+?
The inbuilt camera sucks.
Idk so far but I'm using Google camera v4.2.035 using AEX ROM with beans gapps cause that's the only gapps I found which makes Google camera works out better on Moto G5S+ besides it doesn't have HDR nor HDR+ mode in Google camera but still normal quality is better than that of stock but this ROM lags in camera stability so I wonder if they really gonna update ROM with camera stability and some bug fix
No

Over all impression if ur rooting or gonna use AEX only for camera than don't flash it AEX got so many bugs too specially for XT1804 network issue is big one

Google camera Mods 80 sets in one place try one with arm-arm64 which is the only one to work for 32bit all other won't work most likely and
Specifically saying imo try arm-arm64 with RAW support it works like charm high noise reduction but HDR+ takes pics on blue side of RGB color but still it's way better

tried it on exynos for the sake of curiosity/guinea pigging. most of the time it seems to just close, especially when changing mode or camera. HDR/HDR+ results in very bright taken pics, night mode crashes. And it really got the phone hot.
Let's see if we'll have any luck any time soon.

Is the most stable version I tried until now (and I tried a lot) the only issue is that in the night sight (night mode) I can't see before the picture is taken, only after you can check it, do this happened to you too?
Dobyou know if this mod will be updated?
Thanks to share
front camera portrait also working ?

can you post some photos ? shot on note 8 with night sight ?
If you find any Exynos Gcam 6.x, then let me know. This is the only time when I do not like having an Exynos device.

I too need gcam for note8 exynos oreo
This is a working port but the photos taken are very green tinted and have a massive ring around the sides.
Yes, I see huge green tint on night mode selfies. Note 8 snapdragons. Any updated builds or suggested configs?

Dual Frequency GPS?

Any chance the Pixel 4 xl will have the better dual frequency GPS hardware?
Regards
I believe the SD 855 does support it, not sure about Pixel 4, would be cool though if it did.
As pointed out in the recent XDA article and in the Pixel 4 product page, there is a footnote that says "Dual Band (L1+L5) or (E1 +E5a). Support - coming soon". What does that mean? Is it not a hardware that they just say if dual frequency is available or not? Have they not assembled the phone yet? Is it region specific or something?
AP just happened to post about it... https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/10/18/pixel-4-dual-band-gps/

This is the footnote from the spec sheet for both devices.
⁸Dual Band (L1+L5) or (E1 +E5a). Support - coming soon
Is there a way of checking to see if this is already active and will G-Maps need an update to work with it?
In Developer Options, there is an item called "Use Full GNSS RAW Measurements" (disabled for me). I am not sure if this is the same thing and if Google Maps needs to be updated for the gps accuracy.

Interesting....

Is it possible to install newer GCams (5.1<)on rooted p30 pro?

Hello guys.
Me and my friend bought two huawei phones, nova 5t and p30 pro, and then we realized we can't use gcam on neither of the phones because huawei limited the camera2api and worse, huawei will not give you unlock code for bootloader and...
So the question is, if we can get the code, then somehow root the device and enable camera2api, is there a way to install newer versions of GCam with HDR+ and nightsight? Or because of the kirin processor, it is pointless?
We have both android 10 with emui 10
Thanks.
Not sure about if camera2api can be enabled by achieving root or by using a custom kernel, I will let devs answer on this one.
I found that the new Google camera Go works perfectly on my P30 EMUI 10 all is good and portrait works, except no HDR, no video recording. However I'm not sure if quality is better than stock app

Do you mean enabling cam2api is impossible for this specific phones? Because there is a lot of guides are out there for doing this task on other phones. And even there is some dedicated apps for checking and enabling after root.
Im so disappointed buying this phone really,
Is it so hard really? no progress att all since huawei not provide the codes?
Why disappointed, Huawei camera app it's one of the best apps out there ,a lot of features nice quality,AI works great and can recognize a lot of scenarios i have one year with my P30 pro and im very happy and Huawei night mode it's one of the best out there

Huawei will not provide you with any code since they will not unlock the bootloader and they do it for a good reason ,for more security Everything it's encrypted by default and your personal data and things are safe.

Exactly... There's one channel on YouTube and he literally have every possible way to make best pic on p30pro in each mode. He making moon pics with "AI" off. You can make really good photos in Pro mode so please, stop complaining. Overhauled Samsung s20 Ultra supposed to have 5z optical zoom but have like 3.7x and came out one year later. Huawei have worse stabilisation because on s20u videos with stabilisation looks really amazing. You can run and this thing working so well that it's like you riding skateboard. Yes, it have 8k but its 24fps and grainy. You should be happy with your phone.

Thanks!
