Pixel 4 camera features - Google Pixel 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

So I've just watched 'Made by google' event and that didn't tell us anything about that new features come to older pixel devices. I remember that last year they did something like this. What are your thoughts?

Other than the dual camera split pixel stuff I don't see why not. Most pixel features get back ported to older devices.
That being said, I just pre-ordered a pixel 4 lol

The live hdr might be able to work on older hardware but it could just as easily be hardware dependant

Pretty sure they said the on screen dual adjustment was software and an estimated result so I am also hoping it gets ported to p3

Yeah you never know, I'm sure the shadows slider will come but the live stuff might need the extra oomph from the new chipset.

Mine updated to 7.2 yesterday. You could probably get the update from the Play Store instead of waiting for it to be pushed.

It is for me. Apparently not all servers have been updated. I noticed dark mode took a week or two to reach all servers.

Also got it today. Only thing I'm sad didn't make it was the dual exposure controls.

It updated for me last night.

touch panel sensitivity?

Ok so Ive been playing Draw something on my Prime with just my finger and i figured i would get better results with a stylus.
before buying one I borrowed a friends Targus stylus to try it out and to my surprise, my experience didn't change at all with the stylus.
i was really disappointed with how the stylus interacted with the Primes touch panel. so many times i tried to draw a curved line nice and tight wouldn't result in skips and breaks in the line as if i lifted the stylus from the panel but i didn't.
i went back to my buddy and had him open draw something on his iPad2 and we used the same stylus to draw on his touch panel and it was like night and day difference i couldn't believe it.
now before i start thinking that the Primes touch panel isn't as sensitive to stylus's as the ipad I need to ask a few questions.
first, do you think the targus stylus (has a rubber flexible rounded tip) is more streamlined for the iPad and that is why it didn't work the same on my Primes touch panel?
Or are the Primes touch panels just not as sensitive as the iPad in regards to interacting with stylus's?
I know a lot of people stylus's and if there was a sensitivity problem we would have heard or read about it by now so its possible I need to find a stylus that is designed specifically for the Primes touch panel?
Download touchscreen tuner off the market. It is designed to fix the stylus issue.
edit: previous poster found good solution.

I made quite a few post replies about this hehe. Here is some info about it:
Hand Writting test. I just copied someone elses post with my prime using the Touchscreen settings, settings in there if you wanna see them and try them.
I posted almost the same thing here too

Tweaking colors?

Coming from mainly Samsung devices I'm used to having apps where I can tweak gamma settings and really make the colors pop.
Wondering if something like this is available for the Lte?
I know super amoled is completely different then s lcd but I miss my poppy colors lol
Thanks

I remember there being a calibration app but it required some modification before installing the app and cm6 was a requirement so it's not gonna work on anything recent but someone might know some utility. Problem is that android doesn't have any native color management that I know of
So I take it those options on the amoled screens were built in and easy to access?
I don't recall such apps for my og or 3d now that I think about it.

You can try Screen Adjuster...not sure if thats exactly what you're looking for or not.
Right, like I said android as far as I know does not support native color management. It would be a good for google to add it considering they use android for everything from phones to TVs and set top boxes

That's close enough to what they are looking for.

[Q] Phone Count

This thread is simply to count the people who have the Huawei Ascend Mate 2 so the dev's will realize how popular (or unpopular) the device is. I've had the HAM 2 since it came out and have been waiting for rooting methods to come out, but I can't find ANY info on it.
I came from the OnePlus forums, and just recently made my account here so don't hate if I did something wrong, just let me know.
Got one as well....i really like this phone but i'm waiting for that kit kat hopefully
Had mine about 4 weeks now
You can have my HAM2, when you pry it from my cold dead fingers!
I love this thing!
Mine 3 days old
Still on the first charge lol. My iPhone 5s has only -4hrs screen time, the HAM2 is a beast.
It is not all about processor as long as it has no lag one bit and not one app crashed on mine.
For $299 and get $30 T mobile unlimited all prepaid plan, I just wish I can cancel my grandfathered unlimited plan on at&t. Never turn my wifi ON and every month Minimum of 20gb data
I just don't know yet how to mirror my netflix on HAM2 to my chromecast?

To mirror the entire phone display I'm pretty sure you need to have a separate adapter just for that.
The only way to cast a chrome tab (from a phone) is to enable a setting only available in KitKat. Just another reason to find a Root+ROM.
Please Devs!!!
Please Devs root this phone for us. It is awesome.

Agree!!! would love to see some development. How cool would Cyanogen be on this phabulous 6.1" screen! :good::good:
Hello all,
I think we may need a bounty to get root! We've already started thinking about it in the old P6/Mate 1 thread. Anyone else in?!
Yessir
I registered just to voice my support for this phone. And I use the case that came with my preorder though I do have the black back.
Another owner here. I absolutely love my ham2. I'd put something down on a bounty if that happened.
Got one
Another owner checking in. Love it and waiting for root eagerly
Sent from my MT2L03 using XDA Free mobile app
Root plz. I really miss screencasting.
I have had this phone since it launched in the US. I love it, but I wish that it could be rooted.
It could be rooted, it just seems that we need to pitch in for a bounty so that a developer could do it for us.
There doesn't seem to be any developers on our phone, and none of the existing root methods for any other phone exists.
Got one when released in the US.

MT2L03 CyanogenMod Support

Well, on the heals of the announcement that our excellent device is now DOA due to lack of manufacturer support (ugh, AND I JUST BOUGHT THIS THING 3 WEEKS AGO!!!!!) I have decided to start a device request over with the CM team...
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/101462-huawei-ascend-mate-2-mt2l03-device-request/
We have the same SoC as the HTC Desire 816 - not apples to apples but atleast there should be some commonality for certain areas - so hoping we can get something started. Please light up the device request so we can try to get some buzz.

Where did you see that Huawei announced there will be no device support for our US model? If this is the case I will get rid of mine today.
They confirmed no KK, see thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-mate2/general/confirmed-kitkat-t2921399
And even their US offices aren't being given any info about any other updates, i.e. Lollipop. :crying:

Hell, I've had it less than 30 days. I'll return it to Amazon and get my money back.
I just signed up on the CyanogenMod Forums (I thought I already was, but I guess not) . I'll keep an eye on over there as well.
put a comment on our thread so they know we have support but but motherf875ees4 I really would like to slap HuaweiUSA
---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------
NM I see you already did
I'm not against custom ROMs obviously, but I hope you realize they don't care about device requests. The only way we'll get one is if some random nice developer (like Modding) comes along and decides to help.
We'll just have to wait and see (...again) what those developers that got a free Bait2 at BABBQ are going to do. That is, if they're going to do anything.

yes I understand but for the few devs that give this phone a shot I want them to know that all there efforts are not going to go unnoticed. Plus its free to post a request ;p and a little cash incentive never hurts. Jump on this banana boat @ScoobSTi

Help with the battery

Hi everyone, hope you're doing well, cause I need your help, hoping it's the right section
I've owned my S6 Edge for 3 years by now, and I still do everything with it, the real problem is the battery
I sent it to the the Samsung warranty for the replacement of battery one year and a half ago, so the battery is even younger than the mobile
So I heard that with some mod or something similar I can improve the duration of the battery
So I'm here to ask you for some help, cause I no jack about modding
I'm ok to basically every option you have me if it will help
Also, I thought about modding cause I'm interested so instead anyway so maybe it's the right time to be involved in this world
Thanks for the attention
Can someone, at least, give me a hint/tip?
