My friend just bought a Redmi Note 5 Pro and it has a weird problem.
When viewing an instagram or Whatsapp story,it automatically gets cut in both sides vertically.
Maybe it's because of the 18:9 ratio but I haven't found anyone else with the same phone having same problem.
The device has the latest 9.2.7.0 MIUI version.
What's the cure here?

Yes it's because of the 18:9 display. I have the same problem too...
Too bad the Instagram developers are lazy and mark their app as optimized, yet aren't at all!
It's the same problem for even flagship-level phones with non 16:9 displays (such as S9, G6, etc)
The only way to solve it is to pray to God that these devs realized their mistake and fixed the matter.
Though I insist you (or your friend) opting for Instagram Beta, as it should receive new features and fixes faster.

Well that's surprising. I thought since mainstream phones like S8,s9,pixel now use 18:9 ratio, instagram must've added support for it like they did for Iphone X within months of its release.
I also wonder if there are any unofficial workaround for it :/
Go into settings--->fullscreen display (I'm translating from polish so it may a bit different) and find Instagram and force it to work with 18:9 ratio. I had similar issue with Worms 4. After forcing it from that menu to work in 18:9 everything is alright

Even though I'd followed the video above, the Instagram toggle is greyed out, hence it's state can't be changed.

Yes it is greyed out for me too.
So I am in the process to unlock bootloader and flash the updated 9.5.6.0 version or the latest xiaomi.eu version.
That will most probably let me change Instagram toggle.

Hi
I have ordered OP5 today and expecting delivery on Monday. My cousin has the same mobile and been tinkering with it and observed that the 2x Camera doesn't really work as i expected it to be.
When i selected 2x the view zoomed in but when i close 1x camera display goes blank and when i close the 2x camera nothing happens. This however didn't happen outdoors.
From what i read and understood, the 2x camera gets enabled depending on the environmental conditions.
My nexus 6p just bricked today (bootloops). So ordered OP5. Camera is definitely my highest used application.
So, is there any way or workaround or an App available that can force enable the 1x or 2x cameras as chosen?
I dont think so, the OP5 is just to young for such mods, only 2 weeks after sales started. Ask again in a few month...
The primary work is for custom Roms i think...
tapatalked...
Second lense is used only with good light condition if condition aren't ideal primary lense is used. I think is the same way on iphone but I am not sure.
I read its same with iPhone, but i never know if 1x lens is being used or the 2x lens. I don't want digital zoom, i rather move closer to subject and take a photo if i knew 1x lens is being used.
Thanks for the response though. Once i have my mobile, i will try a few apps and do some tinkering
Would love a modded APK that keept whatever I chooses. Like normally I use HQ, mostly because I'm indoors and that the aHDR function is like so so

+1 to this. Things will definitely happen but I'm not sure if both cameras will be used at the same time for anything more than depth perception for bokeh shots (I think that's what it's used for )
Historically from what I've seen, camera drivers are a ballache to work with (Evo 3D took eons to get right) so I'm hoping the same as yourself but I'd assume not until things have picked up and we have some more talent with a want to mod the camera and it's software bits.
We'll see

You could always know by covering one of the lenses ?. Anyways, covering up the main lens and switching to the 2x zoom won't enable the 2x zoom camera.
I noticed that on RR, on the default snap camera you can use the tele lens, but just as "zoom" ? can't use them both at once...
with snap camera hdr you can choose everything. also recording in 4k with second sensor (1,6x not 2x)

Just downloaded and installed OTA 10.3.3 on my Mi 9 SE.
Been looking forward to this update because I had read that the app drawer was being "enabled". The only thing I really hate about MIUI 10 is having my apps all over the place.
But.....I am seeing no settings for enabling the app drawer. I see I now have 2 grid size options but see no options for app drawer anywhere.
Anybody else have experience with this?
Can u please try permanent notifications? Thanks...
Downloading the update. Will post any new noticeable features here not mentioned in the changelog. :fingers-crossed:
No permanent notifications still, sad.
1080p 60 fps is enabled now.
The panorama selfie feature doesnt seem to work.
Phone feels a bit more responsive and fast.

Hi guys!
Here you see the info about newest OxygenOS version for the OnePlus 7T:
Changelog
System
- OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z can now be integrated with Dolby Atmos for better sound quality
- Optimized the volume adjustment to improve user experience
- Improved system stability and fixed general issues
- Updated Android Security Patch to 2020.05
Camera
- Supported the slow-motion recording at 720p at 960fps
- Adding lens stain detection
Phone
- Newly added Epic Games in Game Space（India only)
INFO:
10.3.0(+) is for non-EU devices and the 10.0.7(+) for EU devices!
CHEERS
Yu talking about this update for 7 and 7 pro or it is available for 7t also ??
Guys be aware that people on reddit have reported this updated changed the back gesture range to full length on the sides, meaning they work as back gesture even at the top of the screen, very annoying to people who want to preserve the top 1/3 for app menus
Yep, the navigation gesture goes all the way up as others have mentioned. However, I noticed that lawnchair now works properly with gesture navigation so it's a worthy trade-off for now imo until they fix it.
Everything feels very snappy.
And what about OP gestures? Still nowhere to be found?

For me when I would go to long press swipe up gesture for recents, it would also flip the app drawer up. It didn't really integrate with the home launcher like it did with the OOS launcher. I tried multiple versions, beta, non beta etc.
If I remember correctly there was issues on pixel with third party launchers on gestures when they first came out as well.
Hey where can i download the global version ? I went and updated through Oxygen Updater but then i guess is the indian version? idk but i lost Dolby Atmos functionality and there's no longer any equalizer.
Green tint issue after updating :/ kind of a bummer tho, can anyone else confirm this?

I am not on the beta program, but received a notice on a pre-update for my 8 pro. It went away and had me wondering, as the updater showed nothing.
I guess it was this beta update. As usual, OnePlus can't keep their ducks in a row.
Sounds like there's not enough to make the "upgrade" worthwhile - could someone please test whether turning WiFi Hotspot on and off via MacroDroid / Taskman etc. still works?

I'm downgrading to 10.5.11. I'm finding 11 DP2 still too bugging. I thought it would have been a little further along from DP1. I guess I'll wait until a stable version comes along.

Anyone else noticed how Whatsapp video calls (using the selfie-cam of course) is really zoomed in? Found myself having to hold the phone quite far from my face to achieve the normal framing, as otherwise my usual distance means my entire face is the persons screen that I'm calling!
It'd be great to change the zoom and maybe even utilise the stock cam for the wide angle option, but realise this is likely not possible?
Does using the volume keys change that while in the call?

Hi, I have the same issue with my Pixel 6 and it is still not resolved for me. Could you confirm if the new Pixel update resolved it for you? All the video calling apps including WhatsApp and Duo still have zoomed-in blurry videos with washed-up colors for me. Thanks.

Hey.
I actually noticed this was fixed before the Dec update. So I'm unsure whether this was fixed in the mid-Nov update or though thinking about it, perhaps it's a Whatsapp app fix rather than Pixel fix.
I had logged the error with Whatsapp and note you have the Pixel 6 and not 6 Pro, so I'd advise raising it with them.
It's great though just to say, feels good to not have to hold the phone so far away from my facew just so the other person doesn't get my ugly mug filling up their entire screen lol
It's definitely not fixed, I have the latest Dec update on my pixel 6 and what's app video call is still zoomed into my face n blurry.

Grrr weirdly after the Dec it's back to being zoomed!!!
I swear guys it was fine and now it's not, so I'm clueless as to what origin of this problem is.....
Update: reported it via the built-in method within the app (last time I just emailed them) which sent logs and device info however because I'm rooted they said it's unsupported.
Perhaps someone unrooted with this issue could report...

Same here. I'm on
SQ1D.211205.016.A4
This also happened with the November build.
Probably the fractional zoom levels offered by the P6 cameras. A *lot* of software can't zoom out less than 1.0 and needed updates.
I'm not rooted and I'm in the Dec update on my pixel 6. I've sent the logs through to what's app so hopefully they reply back
Hi has anyone found a fix for this yet? I'm on the newest 220205.004 build and this problem still persists.
**Update: Joined the Whatsapp beta test program and can confirm the zooming issue has been fixed! So it appears it's been a Whatsapp issue all along and not a Pixel issue. If you're not part of the beta test and don't want to be, then I guess waiting until the new update comes out will be your best solution.
I can confirm the issue is fixed for me running WhatsApp Beta.

Not exactly. Its actually silly for the "back at you" camera to have a fractional zoom level. It doesn't actually zoom out, 1:1 ratio is zoomed *in* a bit.
It does make some sense on the "away from you" camera, since there are 3 separate sensors and the MAIN sensor is defined as 1:1.
