Restore from Pixel - LG G6 Questions and Answers

How the heck do you get the G6 to restore from a Pixel? Where is the option on setup?

You have to use the LG Swap app. Even then it doesn't work properly. I came from a Pixel myself.

How does the phone compare to the pixel? Is it as smooth? How does the camera compare?

Smooth for me, havent compared cameras yet. Phone is a giant.

Request: Factory LG Camera app for AOSP based roms?

Hey folks. Wondering if someone can chime in on the possibility of this...
I want the Camera app from the factory LG rom to work on AOSP phones. only because its HDR ability was much better than any app I have tried to fill that void since I switched to CM. Also it's Manual focus was a nice feature among many other things.
I assume it'd need LG's Framework as well to make it work, but if anyone can try to piece this together, or get me the files Id need (I'm no longer on LG's rom) Id be very grateful!

Focal is going to perform roughly the same as stock CM camera. We need the stock LG camera from the G2 as it can better interface with the hardware, not to mention has device specific tuning for the hardware. No other camera will be able to compete with the stock G2 camera.
To the request, i spent some time trying to get it to work few days ago. Not much progress, others have posted that hey manged to get the camera app to completely start up and take pictures, i have not made this much progress. Wish they would have posted theirs.
There is already a discussion about this in the Att-dev section.

Focal doesnt work for me. I'm on newest CM nightly, and pressing the shutter button in focal causes a FC every time.
As an update, I took the apks and odexs from the LG rom for LGCamera CameraTestApp, LGGallery and the framework-res from the old rom. I tried sideloading the apps with no luck, they wont even show up in my app drawer. I assume I need to install the LG framework alongside CM framework, but that's beyond me.

And it doesnt work at all on CM.
The newest CM update added HDR and it seems to work exactly as with LG camera app. But we still need 13MP. CM's app is 8MP currently.

Hi, is it not possible to download the lg package from one of the g2 standard roms some of them have packages with all the original g2 apps in or am i mistaken about what you want ?
Is this what you were looking for?
Edit: It's a WIP, but hopefully it will work well soon.

If it works...possibly. The LGCameraAppTest2 is the lg cam, but it FC's, the CameraTest5 doesnt look like its form the g2.

Although this camera is awesome. We can't use the volume to take pics. Fc every time. Also burst mode Fc and shutter sound still goes off even though you enable it.
I love the ui of lenovo very aesthetic.
Just with burst mode worked with the volume button.

Amalence makes the software the G2 uses for image processing, and they also have their own Camera software. It's virtually identical to LG's stock camera app, it just has a different skin.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.almalence.opencam
If you compare the stock to this, you'll see what I mean. It's the same camera as stock but with a different (IMO, better) skin.

Do you have a source for saying amalence is the company making LG's camera software? The program is similar yes, but not as good in my opinion. The HDR images are slower to snap and don't look as good to me. There is no "VR Panorama" or whatever LG called their photosphere mode

Regardless its not going to have the device specific tuning of the stock camera.

Note that the A_Better_Camera requires time to take 3 separate images, a good 1-1.5 seconds. The results are good tho.
I highly prefer the CM camera's HDR to A better camera, and I can't honestly tell the difference from the lg camera. The only thing missing is photosphere. I can use Focal for that, oddly enough that's the only feature that works in focal for me.

Thinking of Getting Axon 7

I'm thinking of getting the ZTE Axon 7 and have a couple of questions.
Where does wifi calling on T-Mobile stand? I've seem some threads with a rumor that the phone will have it with a future update. How likely is it that it will eventually get wifi calling? Any idea how soon?
I thought I read something about the notification light only having 2 colors. Is that true? That sounds like a problem. I really like using LED manager to have different custom colors for different apps.

- WiFi calling will be implemented in future or this coming update.
- Notification Lights there's more than what you have mention and if not mistaken light color are Red-Green-Blue and I guess 1 more if not mistaken.

Sounds like WiFi calling is coming soon enough then. And that's the t-mobile implementation? Wifi calling will be used for calling and SMS/MMS too, like on other phones?
4 colors would probably suffice. Even on a full RGB light it's tough to tell the colors apart more than that.

Been honest I don't know, I'm probably one of the white sheep's in the whole ranch LoL.
So just picked up one on Swappa, since I returned my Note7 and did not feel like jumping to anything else.
So I have a question how bad is the camera in low light? Any other negative feedback you might have?

I wouldn't get the axon ..I am gonna sell mine. They didn't release factory images, if you unlock bootloader and even if you relock you can no longer receive OTA's. Cameras are not so good..battery life isn't good if I'm lucky I get 4hrs sot. The Dolby Atmos system app constantly changes from Your custom setting to the "movie" dull sounding setting if you scroll through any apps with videos. Seems laggy at times with browser. I liked the oneplus 3 far better ..charging is slower on the axon too vs the oneplus 3.

If you care about having good speakers, get the Axon. If you don't, get the oneplus. Battery has been excellent for me (consistently over 5 hours SOT over 17 hours), chrome has been very fast, charges plenty fast for most people, build quality is top notch, and mifavor isn't good, but there are workarounds to most of the issues and it's at least fast and stable. I do wish they'd release the factory images, though...
If you think being forced to use the "music" profile on Atmos is bad, just wait until you hear how bad the OnePlus 3s speakers are

Lineage OS 14.1 Slow as Hell

Every app I open on this phone runs like crap and can't do anything without crashes. The battery life is the worst I've ever seen. Switching back to stock.

I am having the same problem, I have never had a rom so slow. Simple actions like moving the Facebook messenger bubble while browsing a forum app or sending a text message can put the phone into full lockdown mode. I believe the kernel is not ramping up properly or something. Horrible performance and bad battery life. not sure what is going on.
Even better than switching to stock, switching to the Galaxy S7 Edge. I'm betting Motorola won't release Nougat because of how slow it runs on the Moto X.
Either there is something wrong with your guys' phones or didn't properly flash the ROM.
My experience with LineageOS has been phenomenal.

Camera pretty usable on Lineage. Camera app opens instantly, takes maybe 3 seconds to switch from the front camera to the rear.
Are you using the night mode feature that changes the colour temperature, because I have LOS 14 on my Nexus 7, and it's super slow, and someone else noticed that below 6500K, it lagged, and above, it was fine.
If you are going to switch, and haven't yet: even better than Samsung - Nexus or pixel

I am a new 6T user, what custom ROM would you recommend me to try out first?

My 6T would arrive tomorrow, my nexus 6p died couple days ago and 6T is the way to go!! I heard that the stock ROM on 6T is really good already, since I haven't taken a look at it, I am not sure what additional feature I can get from the custom ROM? Or should I even bother flashing a custom ROM? Please don't get me wrong, I do think all custom ROM must be fantastic, I am just not sure what the difference are yet.
Another question if you don't mind, I watched some 6T review on YouTube, I see that the speed is fast, but not smooth, they did a comparison between 6T and iphone xs, xs provides much better user experience on animation. I see that we can change the animation speed on developer mode, but since I haven't gotten the phone yet, would that provide the same experience as XS did? Or is there any custom ROM out here can do it?
Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you very much

This is my first oneplus device as well. I was fortunate enough to be broke until the McLaren came out. I'm rooted and magisk with a custom kernel. I can't think of anything else I would want that you can't do with magisk. Try stock and see what you think. This phone is great! I walk around like Ron Jeremy wearing skinny jeans with this device. There's a confidence that comes with this phone.
Comparing this phone to an iPhone XS is like comparing apples to mailboxes. iOS is a completely closed ecosystem, where Android is not. Of course things are going to "look better" on an iPhone because apps and the operating system itself are designed specifically for the hardware and vice versa. I can't stand iPhones, and I'll say this is easily the best Android phone I've ever had. With a few minor tweaks, you should be able to get whatever result you're after, because the hardware in the 6T is top notch.
Stock OOS now is much more stable than every custom ROM now, so i will suggest you to try stock OOS, may be with Magisk (ROOT) and see, what you can achieve with that.
At this moment no customs have working FP, but devs are working on it. If you don't mind about FP - go and try any of it.
What is fp?
Finger print scanner.
Keep it stock, it's great. Keep it at least until FP is supported in custom.

I do agree with you, I am not trying to compare 6T with XS, I always use Android phone. What I do like about XS is the smoothness experience it provides to users, 6T's speed is over-killing XS, but I can definitely tell XS is smoother than 6T in the UI part from the video, which I think everyone would like to have that in their own phone.
And of course!!! This is the best Android phone we can get for this price!!! I am happy I am going to have this phone tomorrow!! Really exited.

I did usqe a a custom kernel and I think it may have improved the battery a little bit, but other than that I disable a couple apps and I use greenify. I dont think I could drain this phone in one day if I tried. I am using an app called Magic Fluids as my live wallpaper with the graphics turned all the way and it's not even the least bit warm. Cool app for showing off. Here's a Pic of kinda what it does.

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!?

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.

do you have any astrphotography sample shots ? i was looking forward to exchange my pixel 3 for a note 9 but the camera was holding me back. If there is a working gcam with astro i might actually pull the trigger on the note 9

I do but they aren't very good. Even with the stay home order there's still a time of light pollution but it does work if u have the right location for it
Latest Urnyx05 version works great.. but astrophotograhy isnt working
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v1.7-fix.apk
Can someone else try it?
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.
16:9 is not working (not a big deal for me)
Astrophotography takes a regular Night Sight picture. (i really hope they fix this since I LOVE this feature)

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.
