With another phone or camera point to the s9 and adjust the camera shutter to see if you see a curtain-like moving with different sizes as you change screen brightness.
Example on the S8:
There is also dedicated hardware like the Radex Lupin:

It has pwm exactly like the S8 and S8+, it's to be expected since the screens are almost identical. If you rotate the s9 while recording you should see the "curtain" rotating as well.

How do i make stock rom apps compatible with a new screen resolution as i've just changed my resolution to 1280x720 and most apps are force closing.. Is there anyway to fix what is happening? Thanks in advance.
How did you change the screen resolution??? The S4M cant display 1280x720, only 960x540

If you'd know how a screen is build and functioning you would know that your statement is totally incorrect. An app can't change the actual resolution of a screen. If it could it would get the Nobel Prize of something. Youtube is just tricked into thinking your device has a higher dpi, hence allowing a higher resolution setting.......

That is not possible if that would be possible you could use an old screen on your Computer and change the resolution to play Games in 1920x1080.

Make a screenshot of your supposed high resolution screen and look at the image details for its real resolution.
The LG G7+ ThinQ has 19.5:9 aspect ratio and the display extends till the notch and doesn't go beyond it. Even if you use the phone in immersive mode the display doesn't fill the notch area but rather it stays like a black area. Does anyone know how to use that notch area too?
Not sure if that is possible, but sure would be great if so.
How does the iPhone X work? Do youtube videos fill the entire screen, even the space next to the notch? And how about the other Android phones with a notch?
There is a reason why the phone is with this odd aspect ratio and why would you want it to extend on it? It would literally just bug you for nothing.

But the OnePlus 6 and most phones make better use of the notch if you choose too. Sure there would be a trick.

No.. there's a blank space visible in a lot of apps.
Haven't been able to find a solution for this yet.
Just to be clear, the request here is that when you're watching videos, you want to have a little bit of the left side of the picture displayed above/below the notch, and the rest of the leftmost strip just not displayed at all? Can I ask **why**?

Hi,
YouTube HDR has just stopped working for me. I can still select the resolution + HDR for a compatible video, but the brightness no longer automatically jumps to maximum to cater for the larger dynamic range. It was working right up until yesterday, and doesn't seem to correspond with a YouTube update, either. It's like Android isn't detected the HDR source even though it's selected, and so HDR videos are flat and lifeless.
Has this happened to anybody else?

Using the no root youtube vanced app from here on XDA this isn't an issue if suggest migrating to it yourself just so you don't have ads if nothing else it and there is a black themed one if you're interested in slight battery savings

Press the 3 dots and when you press on resolution you should have a hdr option near the bottom of the list if it's a hdr video

That did the trick, thank you. I wonder why the official app just stops working.

I think it's important to note that although HDR may be selected (like in my case), it may not necessarily work. You'll know if it's worked for sure when the screen brightness automatically sets to maximum. Now, bright parts of the video such as lights will stand out more in contrast to the dark sections, adding overall realism to the picture. I personally think it's great, and can't wait to get an HDR OLED TV.
Hi Mate 20x users
Just wanted to ask does videos eg. Youtube and movies (vlc) gets affected by hiding the notch in the settings?
Is the notch still there even when it is disabled when watching a video?
Thanks
If you hide the notch, it stays hidden even if you zoom-in an YouTube video.

Is it possible to hide the notch automatically per app, say YouTube, VLC and Netflix but allow it everywhere else?

No. It's either always visible or always concealed.
Edit: apparently you can, wasn't aware of it.

Go to settings type notch then choose app to show notch or not
Just noticed that the Pro mode in the camera doesn't offer any shutter speed settings.
Is there any way to get it on the phone? Suggestions for some other good camera app which supports this on the A50 perhaps?
I don't own an A50. I'm thinking to get one.
You can try Adobe Lightroom, it has a pro mode, where manual shutter speed might be available.

In Hedgecam2, ISO settings don't work (see exif) and shutter speed settings don't show up on A50. Also 12MP can't be set and it takes too much time to take a picture.
