Do you remember the days when sliding on an address bar or a different slim text input didn't cause instant cursor movement and you didn't have to stretch your thumb to the edge of display to simply scroll the text? Turns out using cmd device_config put widget CursorControlFeature__enable_cursor_drag_from_anywhere false in an adb/root shell brings back the pre-R behavior without needing a source patch. Credit goes to @nift4 :)

Ever dreamed of clean recents whenever you exit an app by using back button? Consider LMODroid at https://libremobileos.com/lmodroid.

Ad funded by my love towards the feature.

Basically, it brings back the pre-S behavior of finishing an activity when using back button (so you're not "stuck" in the same place all the time as if you used home button), and cleans the app from recents on top. All background processes are unaffected and it won't "kill" an app you don't intend to kill. Your incognito tabs are safe.

From comments:

Xiaomi 13 Ultra isn't properly compliant with LENS_INFO_AVAILABLE_APERTURES, doesn't list the f/4.0 setting.
But funnily enough, it lets you use LENS_APERTURE regardless.

This is new to me, so may as well be new to you. Finally you can build your own LOS conveniently with firmware images.

We're in 2023 and OEMs still limit their stock cam manual mode to those "exposure time offered on old ass physical shutter DSLR" levels, despite freely and often using shorter exposure times in broad daylight while in auto.
🤦‍♂️

does anyone have an idea of 5g SA crashing the selfie cam?

That's damn impressive as hell

Probably affects stock too, no?

Yep

Yay

mind blowing shit

My take on the fake moon from Samsung

Just wanted to add some stuff on this "hot" topic.

In short, I managed to obtain a moon by starting with something that isn't even a moon.

I just made a white circle in Photoshop and brushed it a little. Then I also rotated it and created artifacts that would never appear on the moon (through clone-stamp tool).

The picture VS the result

More details, including the files and a video of me producing the image: https://imgur.com/gallery/9uW1JNp

Surprising that I didn't forward it here earlier... The algo used on the Moon by Samsung doesn't stamp any moon.png on your picture. It just converts blurry splotches to crater-like texture. It tricks the eye enough, as it creates these "sharp elements" you're normally looking for on the moon, while avoiding the most obvious artifacts of local tone mapping and sharpening. To me, it still counts as fake, but same can be said about any image processing algo capable of misrepresenting the original picture by trying to guess way too much.
