[Q] Night Mode is Missing in the Camera Option for MX4 Pro - Meizu MX

Well, I had my LG G3 swapped with a Meizu MX4 Pro a few days ago. A few issues have cropped up.
The other guy's FlyMe account is still logged in. But, that's ok. I can still update the phone without his password.
BUT, checking on the camera options, I see that there is no "Night Mode" as one of the options. Is there a workaround here? I checked the settings and I don't see it.

I see. I have to say, the G3 really takes excellent day and night time photos but the touchscreen issues I'm encountering with the Lollipop update is a dealbreaker.
I am happy with my MX4 Pro though. Looking forward to MX 5. :good:

Note 3 SM_N9005
Hi, I just picked up my Note3 SM-N9005 from Malaysia.
I get vertical lines while taking video in low light and sometimes in normal light condition. This only happens while downloading or uploading via Wifi .
I just would like to know, if this is hardware or software issue?So please try to take a video while downloading or uploading anything via Wifi or just deactivate and activate while shooting.and tell me what happens.
thank you,
check this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/23i98f1qlkrgfkq/2013-10-19 10.33.07.mp4
Same here.
Squiggly vertical lives when recording video.
I just recorded this while uploading another video to YouTube via Wi-Fi. I have a U.S. S-800 N3.
Only happens on the stock camera app. Use a different app.
Also, try clearing the cache and data of the stock app.

Note 3 camera bug
Reservin,
You're definitely not alone with this particular bug. I'm currently in correspondence with Samsung regarding the issues.
If this is not resolved satisfactorily, then I shall be getting a refund.
In fact, they are sending a courier to pick up my unit very soon for testing!

I'm having the same problem with my Note 3.
Factory reset does nothing, and I think it doesn't happen in airplane mode. Downloading a large file with Wifi or 3G does not affect it. Installing some apps like "Moves" seem to make it happen more frequently. Might be CPU related? I'm getting mine replaced tomorrow, as the unit is only one day old. I will report if that one has the same problem now that I know what to look for.
Can't post links as I usually just lurk, but I think these can be figured out:

Little update:
I took the Note 3 back to the store and exchanged it to newer one. First this one worked perfectly, but after couple OTA system updates they started to appear again. I'm hopeful this is software related issue.

I had the same issue first time when using camera in low light condition (nordic firmware).
The problem got solved by itself after restarting the device and now two days after still havent seen the lines.
I had seen similar problem on old lcd and tft monitors when they are exposed on high frequency waves. Not sure that there is connection between them and the camera on Note 3.

Thanks man. I disabled Wifi, like was suggested and no problemo, when Wifi is off. No lines, video recording works fine. But after turning Wifi back on, problem is back. By the way I'm using too nordic firmware (I live in Finland). Few days ago I rooted my Note 3 with De la Vega method (works fine, Knox 0 etc), so my first idea was, that this is something to do with that, but this problem existed before I did it. Looked videos, that I made before rooting and these horizontal lines are there. But only in home made videos. And when I'm at home, my Wifi is always turned on. So I'm almost 100 % sure, that this problem is related to Wifi somehow. Did you updated your device already with newest firmware? Maybe fix is in new update? Because of that root I didn't update myself, so I'm using still MJ1 firmware.

Same thing happen to me when I take video whole connected to wifi. I guess there's some wifi interference while taking the video. Don't think that it is a hardware issue.
No issue when taking video on 3g network.

Hi Atsco,
I also live in Finland (Kirkkonummi) and bought my Note 3 from Verkkokauppa/Helsinki. It was with MJ1 firmaware and I update it to MJ2. Currently using the stock one with Nova launcher. The only description of the update was "Improved stability" . I can't confirm that the problem vanished after the update, but as I don't experience it any more there is probability this update to fix this defect.

ZUK Z2 PRO Android 7 confirmed 2017!

Hello,
Now it's fully official.
Android 7 will be released officially on January, 28 2017
m.gsmarena.com/zuk_announces_android_70_nougat_update_plans_for_the_z2_pro_and_z1-news-22050.php
The Chinese character 內測 in the image means "test internally".
The 7.0 test internally was OTA today. Maybe the stable one will be released before Chinese new year (about five weeks later).
on print screen is missing dark theme... I hope they would include it..
For those who would like to update here is the link to the forum to try 2.5.335ST version.
http://zukfans.eu/community/threads...ion-updated-link-for-2-5-335-st-version.1801/
looks almost the same after got updated to ZUI2.5...
does 7.0 on the update brings manual controls on the camera?

Yes, yes it does. This is also known as the ZUI 2.5 update, by the way.

I didn't have it before 2.5 was available, so I never tested it on the older builds. It's a decent camera, although you really want to be on stock ZUI to take advantage of it.
Realistically, if I had to choose again, I would probably save the money and get the regular Z2 instead; the custom ROM scene is much better, longer battery life, and no issues with the Z2 Pro camera's OIS getting physically stuck due to Camera2-based drivers not knowing how to deal with it properly. And no worrying about missing U-Health, since it doesn't have the finger sensor.

Some questions before buying:

Hi! I want to buy the phone next month and I would like to know some things about it:
1: I know this is a new phone and there is no custom ROMs but you can root it and install TWRP?
2: I see that you can update it to 8.0. Should I update it after or I should stay with 7.1?
3: How is the battery? How much up time you get?
4: How is the performance? How old is your phone and how is the performance after you use it for a while?
5: How good is the camera?
So I should get this phone if I want to have a good balance between performance and camera quality?
Before posting this, you could've checked the other threads for the Mi A1. Also many reviews to be found everywhere.

1. Yes, I'm rooted but have not yet install twrp since I have to be unrooted for that
2. I didn't see any 8.0 update yet
3. Very good, for me last whole day heavy use without gaming, almost 6h sot
4. I've got it few days so cannot say, it's still new so no one can tell yet
5. Camera generally ok, in daylight very good, low light only if you are patient and have steady hands, otherwise there is Google HDR+ camera port, with it the photos are excellent.
Btw, most of the question are covered in various topics.

You have to be rooted so you can add the following in the build.prop file-
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
Restart your device and it will work.
BTW, once rooted, you can use ES File explorer to go to /system where the build.prop file is located.

50.2.A.0.352 update for XA2, XA2 PLUS, XA2 ULTRA is available in some regions according to xperifirm (mostly for duals)
I already updated. I have troubles with camera, lags on 4k mode with steady shot on and system works slowly than Oreo. Don't install that, but you cant revert Oreo back
R2A revert to Oreo. R1A for now is not
I have updated my XA2 day before yesterday, after getting Android 9 all things seems fine except battery life which is good enough when my device was on oreo, i am not saying its terrible but its noticeable, on standby its working fine but during usage its going to be draining fast, its really painful for me bcz battery power was highlighted feature of XA2 but now its behaving not well, sony should fix this as soon as possible

I notice the same, battery runs out faster than with Oreo, then I had no other inconvenience, the camera app was updated and some say that the video quality worsened, I did not notice yet, but the good thing is that for the first time I managed to run a version of Google Camera (I think it's for XA1) is one of the first to appear on Google if you search "Google cam Xperia".

Yes bro everything seems fine except battery timing, its more sleek and faster than oreo, finger print scanner is now super fast and camera has been improved, over all its good update but battery timing is really an issue, hope they fix it
More about the camera app and android Pie.
They removed the Timeshift function that was the best of the app, is available in the playstore but I can not install.
As I said above you can install a functional version of the Google camera that at a glance takes better photos and videos (without so much postproduction) from here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xa1/themes/google-camera-t3798683/amp/
I also tried all the portable apps of this link for LG smarthphones, they all worked (with limitations), but the H2O from ONE Plus ascinated me, the manual controls are excellent and it works fluently.

I think Android 9.0 fingerprint recognition seems faster,higher success rate,but it doesn't have pie's navigation bar and there's no circular clock
The update is successful. Installed this morning by Xperia companion on my XA2 single SIM, everything is fine and the battery lasts longer. The only thing is that the task manager I did not find the windows with horizontal scrolling but with vertical scrolling as in android 8. For the rest it's fine.
100% battery April 8 at about 2.15pm
1:01 am on April 9th 35% Battery
The only thing is that I wanted to find the task manager with the windows horizontally, otherwise satisfied.
It's fine..
Got 50.2.A.0.352 OTA here in germany and it bricked. Well ota didn't work, download always failed, tried updating via xperia companion after restart screen went black and is now turning on and off. If the phone it self is actualy on, i have no clue.
litteraly just created this account to share the info that even 352 bricked a device.

GCam 7, so I stumbled upon a thing SNAPDRAGON verified

This is the GCAM from Pixel 4/4XL/4a ?
Well on my crusades of random youtube videos tonight custom of the pawn of video talking about g cam 7 and Astro photography. I don't know if anyone else would be interested in a newer g cam APK but I found one of the newest Google camera that works on our devices. My only suggestion to get rid of some green tint this to go into settings and change your viewfinder to the one beginning with YUV. Link posted to save y'all the trouble of going through the pop up process.
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
Download the first one. 7.2.010 it's by Xenius9
Also in advanced settings is where to turn on Astro photography. All modes seem to work, what I've listed is tweaks I've done. Hopefully I've helped someone upgrade their GCam because Lord knows I love to stay in top of things with what's probably the best camera app on Android ??? cheers. Any questions you have let's work it out together and he'll each other folks.
Update: I've discovered that this set up actually gives me the best images. No discoloration blotches or anything. They've all come out crisp, great toned and all.
This only works on pixel devices...what about rooted android(samsung) handsets!?

I'm using the one above and noticed every night shot is ungodly noisy. I don't remember older versions being this bad so it's probably a setting I'm missing or something, but it's unusable and I saw ISOs of 5000+.

Im using this version also (N9600). I have tested a couple gcam versions and this seems to be the best one yet.

Have there been any updates since this post?
I went here to track what updates have appeared: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-urnyx05/#apk1625
Downloaded this release which was published on June 20 2020 https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v2.0.apk
It seems to work just fine. I have some use cases where I've been missing my Pixel .
One thing I do find annoying about this gcam is that motion photos are on by default, both versions I've installed have been in that mode and I had to disable it.
