Force an app into 16:9 / Fix snapchat stretch issue? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi. As some of you have noticed snapchat on our devices stretches recorded video horizontalli, and that's because our navbar is transparent and not solid like on for ex. S8. Does someone have an idea how to fix it or how to disable optimized app from using fullscreen and force it into 16:9? In settings i cant disable it because it is grayed out. I am rooted so terminal commands or modifying files is ok to me. Any ideas?

have you figured it out??

Force youtube into landscape with orientation lock?

Hey guys,
I like to lock my screen orientation to portrait for mostly everything. Games and landscape apps override this which is fine.
The youtube app for some reason is stuck in portrait (it used to switch easily in CM9 on my old i9000m).
So I have to disable orientation lock for videos.
Is there anyway to force certain apps to disregard the orientation lock? I know CM9 has it, but I'm quite happy with the touchwiz features and don't want to switch.
I also want to know about this. My GS1 does it with orientation locked. Wish I could here too
Sent from my GS3
I am still trying to figure out how to play in full screen portrait mode - somewhat like the full screen zoom option native in IOS -
Thought I could do anything I wanted the phone to do with Android.. lol maybe not -

Camera Issues on rooted VS986 11A

Hello everyone,
I just got my G4 and haven't really had a huge chance to test out the camera, which I can't wait to do. Nonetheless, just doodling around without, I have noticed some annoying issues.
-Trying to manual focus as far away as possible consistently crashes the camera app.
-Auto mode is extremely fluid and smooth, but switching to manual causes the app to lag a bit and the viewfinder to drop some frames
-Settings through the lil gear in all settings appears to be cut off (http://imgur.com/vawoxSR). It sort of seems like I should be able to scroll left and right or up and down through the settings bar, but it does not move.
That's all, nothing huge. Just thought I would see if anyone had had similar experiences or found any fixes.
You have changed the dpi, try to install xposed and then the module app settings (for lollipop version search on the official thread, if I'm right is on post #1847 here on xda) and change the dpi for the camera app back to 640 that will solve both issues.
Thanks a lot, that fixed it and makes a lot of sense in retrospect haha

Full screen on some applications.

I have a problem with some applications. They don't want to use full screen. For example Spotify. There is a black bar above navigation bar.
Is this problem related to spotify app or something related to operating system?
Do you have similar problem?
I think that maybe the 18:9 aspect ratio or the resolution perhaps isn't supported by all apps yet. I face the same problem with Ingress, but found a workaround to make the black bar smaller: By hiding the status bar for that specific app you have that issue with, here's a link: (No root needed)

I wrote a post on spotify community page, but no real answers so far. So, we have to be patient.
More apps have this problem..I asked developer of one of them and they said that in the future they plan to support 18:9 apps lol its 2018 already they should have it..
color os.5 has feature to scale any app to 19:9
so i hope someone can port the feature into aosp/androidOne
any solution?
Solution
If you're looking fullscreen + gestures (like in MIUI) you're looking for this app - Fluid Navigation Gestures (search google play store)
It works BETTER than original, allows for customization and forces all "2D" apps to render full screen. Not games though
You'll need adb as well to make that program work

OnePlus Camera Won't Open Other Gallery Apps?

I'm running OOS PIE 9.0.5 and I removed the OnePlusGallery and replaced it with SimpleGallery.
SimpleGallery is listed as the default gallery app.
When I take a picture with the camera, the small image on the right that appears, when I tap it, just above where it says; Video - Photo- Protrait, on the screen it will say 'No Photos' and nothing happens, it won't open the SimpleGallery app.
I was hoping I could use another gallery app and when tapping the image it would open.
Does anyone know if this is possible to get working?
Thanks
I really hope there's some solution to this, cause OnePlus gallery lacks a lot of basic features.

Is it possible to hide the UI on the stock camera app?

I am trying to set my camera up as a temporary streaming option by mirroring my phone screen on my PC with the camera app. The obvious issue being all of the UI on the camera preview screen. I have tried some of the streaming apps, but they don't have all of the features of the stock camera app (like utilizing the wide-angle lens). Does anyone know if I am missing anything? Or is it just impossible?
