HDR on Amazon Prime video app? - OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers

Hi there!
Some of you can play hdr content on Amazon prime video? The 7T is supposed to be certified but the maximum quality I can get is fullHD.
Back on November the option was there (settings-quality-streaming) which was 5.8GB/h but it disappeared three weeks ago. Now, the maximum is 1.8GB/h (fullHD).
Thanks.

Nobody with Amazon prime video? Really?

I am happy to check, but I honestly don't know how?

Not present
Just checked it's stuck at 1.8GB/Hr ! Any way to bring it back to 5GB / Hr ?

It's quite simple. Play a video with hdr option (the boys, the man in the hight castle, Jack Ryan, carnival row...).
While you are playing it (over WiFi if you can) touch the screen and under the duration bar you will see the resolution (hd, hd 1080 or hdr).
Or you can go to settings-qualitity-streaming (or download) and you should see something above 5GB/h.

I think is related to Amazon. This happens since they updated the app back on November (blue icon instead of white).
I cannot find the APK corresponding to the October version.

I just tried installing last 3 builds from Apkmirror and can confirm all 3 had same 1.8GB / Hr.
Sep build was worse as it has 460mb/hr.
Everytime I tried installing a new build, deleted all the cache and trace files of previous installation and proceeded. No luck

Update on 27th January 2020
I recently purchase the OnePlus 7T - HDR works on Netflix & YouTube. However, doesn't work on PrimeVideo app.
I had a chat with someone from the Amazon Support, here's an excerpt from that conversation (AgentName redacted) -
AgentName: Right now, Phones which has the Widevine L1 certification are able to access the videos in HD format only.
AgentName: Currently, HDR is not introduced in Prime Video app.
Me: Is that a region specific thing?
AgentName: We're adding the support for the phone one by one.
Me: Okay. Is there a list of phones that have already received the support? Something that will keep getting updated so that we can figure out which devices are now compatible
AgentName: We are working on this to adding the support for the phone one by one.
AgentName: To help you out, I've forwarded your expectations to our Prime videos Development Team so that they will look into this and may come up with HDR support for your phone in future updates.
Me: Okay. Thank you for your time AgentName. That's all I needed.
I think OnePlus should've done some work with these companies to ensure that their devices get HDR on these platforms before they mass produce and sell them. Hopefully this issue will be resolved soon. :fingers-crossed:

So I've been using this since released and it is an amazing rom, lovin it.
2 questions about the new camera though. I have seen a video where in split capture both front and rear record simultaneously, however it seems to only work capturing rear camera and then after capturing front camera. Is the M7 not capable of the simultaneous capture? Also does the M7 not support the Full Hd (1920x1080) resolution for videos? When attempting to record it looks very sharp and crisp but when playing the recording back i get blotched colors and a thick green and purple line on the right side of the video.

The m7 does not have native dual capture like the m8 does.
In regular camera before Eye experience, it is able to capture image from both, with a PictureInPicture looking window for front camera.
At one point, I attempted to try and enable dual capture for the m7, but did not have much luck and did not try for long.
It's possible that it could be enabled, but I have yet to do so.
Most of that would be done kernel side and I do believe it can be done.
But HTC never gave us that ability on the m7.
So yeah, to use dual capture/split view, it takes one and then the other.
As far as the video, yes it does HD.
I have yet to do a lot of video with the Eye camera, but I did not notice anything like that in my testing.
You may actually be one of the many who have an inferior sensor, as many have had to send theirs in for repair/replacement for similar issues.
It may just be that the newer camera stresses it more, making it more apparent.
I assume you are in fact on the latest firmware, so that shouldn't be a concern.
If others are having similar effects, then it could be a result of porting the libs and binaries for the new features from the m8.
But if it's just happening for you, or a select few, then I would lean towards the hardware failure that HTC is aware of.
Thanks for the info, after posting this i messed around with the settings for the video issue. This is what I came across, if I set video quality to 1920x1080 via settings and shoot video on auto i get what I described in my post. If I change from auto and shoot in hdr I do not get the blothchy color or lines but image seems to be zoomed in a little.
Now when i set video quality to 1280x720 via settings and shoot video on auto no image issues. If I change from auto to hdr still using 1280x720 in the settings i get a 1920x1080 video that looks like it should not zoomed in either.
Seems odd but got it working. So would this be a hardware issue like you suggested or issue with the app, seeing it was meant for the M8?
Thanks again for sharing your work !
Camera Issue
First off Santod, been using your ROMS for quite a while now and have greatly appreciated your hard work. I have just one problem with this new one, as I see someone has already stated, I too am having an issue with my camera during recording. It looks fine on the screen while recording, but after recording i go to look at the video, and it's almost as if the split picture is active, but only for the back camera. What I mean is that there appears to be a line cutting the screen into two sections (like the split picture does, but it's still the whole screen video from the back camera) and the colors are off, almost as if it has the negative filter on but not quite. I have not had any issue with the camera previous to installing this new ROM. There is also a green line that shows up on the top of the video, on all the videos i have taken. Im not entirely sure that it isn't a software issue as I haven't had any trouble on previous roms, but I'm sure you know a lot more about it than I do. I'm about to reflash the ROM and see if that doesn't maybe fix it, but I figured I would let you know of the only problem I have encountered so far. Thanks again for all your work!

I tried this also, and it had the exact same effect for me. I wish I would have seen this yesterday as I recorded a whole show last night with messed up video and didn't even know it lol. Thanks for this, I guess I will use this as a workaround for now.
---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------
Upon closer inspection when i played back the video on my computer, the video is actually two of the same videos playing next to each other, not a whole video cut in half by a line.
some bug, need fix
Before, i really Thanks You cuz best series Rom for M7 VWZ.
Yesterday, i up this Rom for my M7 VWZ, but have some bug ...
I'm from Vietnam and use GSM Sim, i'm up from NuSence 4.4.3 and have some bug....
1> Only Call success at first call, then need restart for other call.
2> have icon Sim Notsupport in status bar,
i was reup many times but it's still that, now, i;m go back NS 4.4.3
P/s: Can you port "Ufocus" on M8 for M7 VWZ ?
I don't have any reboot options on my power menu. The only options I see are "Power off" and "Airplane mode". I also can't find any options for changing this, either in the installer or in Settings. Is there a way to fix this without doing a full wipe?
If it makes any difference, I originally installed this ROM using a full wipe with Nova Launcher selected, then later re-installed without wipe to change the launcher to Blinkfeed (but the reboot option has never appeared with either launcher).
Issues with Chromecast
Hey Santod,
I have been trying to mirror my screen with the chromecast app. as it connects it then disconnects and never actually works. I had it working on your older Nusense Six 8.0. Just wondering if this is something you can work on or if this is something I will just have to wait until the next iteration of builds.
Thanks,
Kevin Clark
Casting screen with Chromecast
Does anyone else have issues casting your screen with Chromecast? I tried, and it immediately ends the cast, leaving my TV at a black screen.
Thanka

I can also confirm that screen casting my screen no longer works as it did in the previous NuSense. So far this only appears to be an issue with Mirroring. Casting from apps like Youtube and Netflix work fine for me.

My battery life with this rom has been insane. I'd be at thirty percent after ten hours on gpe and dirty unicorns and the dalvik version of nusense.
Thanks for making a great rom, looking forward to Chromecast screen mirroring.
So I can't get ART to stick. Every time i switch to it and reboot it doesnt change. I am using xposed modules if that makes a difference

You can't use art with xposed, it doesn't support art yet.

In having an issue with Bluetooth audio
I can pair my head set but it won't pass any audio
Any ideas?
Anyone else having issues with GPS / Google Maps on this ROM?
Was this version supposed to not have the Sense toolbox installed with it? I'm not sure how else to enable the swipe-typing otherwise...?
Issues switching to ART
Hey Santod,
I haven't gotten any reply from you about the chromecast issue. I understand. You are a great developer. I did have a quick question about ART though. I tried to switch my Phone to ART, but it didn't actually switch over when I told it to reboot to switch to ART. What am I doing wrong?

Currently I have a broken arm, so my presence and ability to type are somewhat effected.
i dont use Chromecast so cant help too much there.
i know I saw info online about it and how you have to access it differently then what seemed obvious.
As for Art, Xposed is not Art compatible and will auto revert you to dalvik if enabled.
So you have to choose one or the other, which is why I left Xposed out of this build.

1440p playback on YouTube

Hi,
I'd like to address this issues, my device is a H815 AICP rom but it didn't even work with the stock rom before I UsU-ed it.
Sooo it doesn't really show up the 1440p option on YouTube even though it has a 1440p display and used to work but it didn't work since March of last year, it used to buy now it just shows 1080p no matter what video you are trying to watch. Please help ?

Most stable 7.1.2 ROM for tab s 8.4 LTE (T705)?

I'm looking for a stable rom for my tab s 8.4 LTE. Could anyone recommend me a rom where the camera, sim card/LTE, and phone calls work properly? I'd be really grateful. Also, where can I find a stock Samsung ROM just in case I wanted to go back?
I don't have your SM-T705, but I recently did get a used SM-T700 and immediately installed LineageOS 7.1.2 on it with no regrets.
The only place I could find the OEM ROM was SamMobile. Unless you have unlimited patience, I suggest buying the membership (@ $10) long enough to do a premium download.
I'm on 705 and installed 7.1 LOS the only thing I'm missing is Netflix / Prime Video in HD

Is that because of the LineageOS or because of the Netflix apk? I think I can understand Prime. Amazon doesn't like us Android people. Even though they are one.

It's because it was a challenge to install Netflix (device not supported) once you have your device rooted you also loose the HD capability in Netflix. I haven't found a way to make it work so in the Netflix app the maximum playback quality is sd

Could you link to that ROM? What about LTE, camera, and phone calls? Does it offer voltage control too? I'd like to to optimize the cpu for better performance and less heat.

The LTE works, I've tried it briefly, and I've made a phone call too, that is fine. I haven't tried the camera or looked into anything with changing CPU frequency. I suspect you could do so via via Magisk or similar. The Rom is LOS 14.1 from this forum you can find it in the android development section.

G8s 4k 60fps camera problem (stutter)?

Hi
i bought the LG G8s 1 1/2 weeks ago. Newest OTA-Update is installed. And i really love the LG smartphones. But i think i have a problem with the camera.
When i use the camera with settings 4k 60 fps then it seems that there are "microstutters". The video does not run smoothly.
I found a video on youtube where you can see this. When he pan the camera from left to right and right to left for example, you can see microstutters.
And i have exact the same problem. In 1080p 60 fps no problem. And i tried to record on SD-Card and internal memory. And i tried a factory reset.

It's veeeeeery annoying and not all G8s user have the problem. I guess we need Android 10 and then i hope the camera app will get an update...

Question Camera question from other users

Hello everyone!
I have the phone for over 10 months, and I as many of you can see, Vivo's main selling point is their camera.
I love the photos which comes out of the device, but after the Beta update to A13 which I did back in the beginning of December 2022, I noticed while I was out and shooting some pics and taking video footage with the device that when you switch to Video mode (no matter if it's in the Stock camera or 3rd party apps like FilmicPro), I am unable to change the lenses which I would like to shoot with? I am left only with the 1x Wide camera lens, and at the Stock app camera app, when I select 2x in the video mode, it just crops-in.
I was chit-chatting with Vevo's support a couple of times, over their live chat, sending emails, countless messages over their official Instagram page (where I was left on "seen" only).
The only "true" answer which I got from their support while I was chatting live with their support a few months back regarding this issue was that it will be put in Priority to be fixed in their future updates.
Now, since December (almost 6 months), I am left with this 1000+ euro expensive device, where I cannot use the other lenses in video mode, in the stock app and in 3rd party apps?
Like, excuse me, but as I mentioned at the beginning, they are mentioning "Professional Photography", but the other lenses are also good for shooting "Professional Videography" as far as I can say. LOL
They also suggested me to send my device to their official repair shop in the nearby countries where I live, so they can downgrade it to A12 -- Are you kidding me? I just want the ****ing update, not wiping my device. Principle.
I would like to ask you all, if you could check on your phone when you open your stock Camera app, or any 3rd app pro camera app, if you have the ability to change the lenses for shooting the video?
