This is thing is driving me crazy from time..
Finally HTC decided to implement this function ( that is present in EVERY phone with flash) from 4.3 releases..
Now, why the hell they haven't included it also on GPE?
Nexus got it, S4 GPE got it.. why HTC no? is there a way to have it?
Where is the problem? in the kernel i assume.. right?
This has been driving me nuts too!! My old Galaxy Nexus has this and so does the Nexus 4 and 5. Did you find anything out about it? I would like to use AOSP based ROMs full time but for me this feature is a bit of a deal breaker.

OK, this is odd. I tried santod040's port of the HTC One M8 GPE ROM that can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722134 and flash assisted focus WORKED!
It did behave a little strangely though. It would work in a dimly lit situation but not in a dark or pitch black situation. I have restored a Sense 6 backup and the flash assisted focus works in pitch black as does my wife's Nexus 4 with stock 4.4.2.
But... it DID WORK more than with any of the M7 GPE builds that I have tried.
Have you tried with flash on and not automatic? Maybe with forced ON it trigger also on pitch black !

I can't remember if I did... I think I did and it made no difference.
It also seemed that after trying to get the flash to fire for focus in a dark/very low light situation it would not work and then if you tried a "not so dark" situation it would not work until you closed and reopened the camera.

So lameazz what happened to your XL, is it rely dead or what. And how does the One X feels like,is it any good i heard they have some defects or problems with their screens ,flickers and such issues especially in landscape mode. I am thinking on buy one my self and was reading in XDA forum about those issues now i am not so sure to buy it. Are you experiencing any problems with One X or is it the best device ever
I've named sxl dead cause it's still at service center with no infos at all.
And about One X... I have not faced any of mentioned "bugs" except kinda lag in menu/browser, but there have been 2 sw upgrades in one week while i have it, and now device runs better. Meybe i have not tested all stuff (will do in next days) but for now I am very pleased with the device

Here is the link. Try this apk and you'll certainly like it. Multi touch works in this one. Best part is that you don't need root as its an apk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24809121
As many of you may know by now, Google rolled out the ability to play 1080p YouTube on 1080p Android devices. However, most Nexus 5s, and countless other 1080p phones don't have this functionality. It's seemingly random, but it isn't. Why, you ask?
Because ONLY Android versions 4.4.2 and L get this luxury. How do I know this? Well, I've tested this on almost half a dozen different Android phones.
Enabling 1080p (and 480p) playback in YouTube is frustratingly simple, and WORKS ON ALL 1080P ANDROID DEVICES WITH YOUTUBE v5.7+!!
So let's get into it! FYI, you need ROOT for this tweak:
First,
------ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR BUILD.PROP BEFORE EDITING IT-----
I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong on your phone. This is dead simple though, and if you create a backup there should be no problems
1: Open your build.prop file, and find this line:
"ro.build.version.release=x.x.x"
(With "x.x.x" being your current Android version number)
2: Then, replace that "x.x.x" with "4.4.2". The line should look exactly like this, (without quotes of course):
"ro.build.version.release=4.4.2"
3: Save, then reboot your phone.
4: Open up YouTube, play a 1080p video, and select 1080p from the resolution menu.
5: Profit
Note that this will make Settings and all other apps think you're on 4.4.2. However, your phone will still be on whatever version you started with (this isn't just gonna magically upgrade your OS XD). In order to revert back to stock (you must temporarily revert back to install OTAs), restore your build.prop backup or simply change "x.x.x" back to what it was before.
--If this helped you please leave a Like and share it with your friends! If you do mention it somewhere, please give me/this thread credit --
EDIT: So far, I've only posted this on here and the OnePlus forums (under the same username).
UPDATE: According to a couple people on the forums, Google has fixed the issue on their side so that you can see 1080p regardless of your Android version. Unfortunately, my only device now (the LG G3) is still on 4.4.2 so I can't test it. Also, I'll leave this guide up in case anyone still has issues

When I had the Developer Preview on my Nexus, 1080p was an option by default, so I couldn't say. There's no reason why it shouldn't work, though

So this also explains why updating to 4.4.3 on the M8 removes the 1080p option. Stupid Google!

Very nice catch
Just to clarify, this is a Google issue? Reason I ask is that would explain why the G3 is beginning to get the 1440p option due to the screen but why haven't Google enabled their own phone? It makes no sense...
I get 1080p without messing with it lol.

Stupid google, what about 4.4.4? as anyone tried that version number, as its basically 4.4.4 anyway, ill gladly add it to build.prop if it works.

4.4.4 isn't on the M8 yet (they say they've rolled the security updates into 4.4.3 but hmmmm) but on my Nexus 5 running 100% stock 4.4.4 I only get 720p (I don't root my phones any more so although this information is good it doesn't help me!)

I tested 4.4.4, 4.4.3, 4.4.2, and 4.4 on the M8 GPE, Z Ultra GPE, and Nexus 5 (L also on the Nexus 5 also). 4.4.2 and L are the only two to receive 1080p/480p YouTube.

Lol weird i wonder why not for 4.4.3/4 so if you want to use it without changing build.prop then you need an modded youtube app right? Nice thread btw i didnt knew about it since i was still using on kitkat the old youtube v4 app. Another thing to do when i have time is looking into the youtube app and maybe find some hidden stuff
I tried this on Mahdi ROM. It just makes the 1080p option show up in the settings, but I cannot switch to it.

This is a glitch on some ROMs (from my understanding you tap it but the bubble doesn't fill in?), but in my experience it does in fact play 1080p, just not fill in the selection in settings. It may be very difficult to notice the shift in resolution, but I'd try pausing on some text and changing it around. If it actually doesn't change, then I'm guessing it's a problem with the ROM (or even theme for CyanogenMod in some cases).

Hi all!
My HTC One packed up this weekend. It's the same problem as this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2280792
It happened on Friday night, I'm unsure if it ran out of battery or not - but I realised it was broken after I woke up in an alleyway drunk - it was raining but the phone wasn't wet.
However, none of the solutions in that thread have worked. The phone is on, and still receiving messages etc - I can take screengrabs and see them come into my Dropbox, everything looks fine on the home screen. I just can't get it to actually display. Whenever I try and restart it I get the flashing soft keys, it restarts makes all the noises and stuff but just won't display
The software is all the default stuff with the latest update of Android installed last week at some point.
Any help I'd love you for - I dropped my last one in the Thames and I don't wanna lose another!

Sounds like a dead LCD to me. Maybe in your inebriated [emoji481] state you fell and it took a heavy knock. Or you rolled on it while sleeping and fractured the LCD.
If there's any warranty on the device you can try your luck with that. Just say you pulled it out of your pocket and that's how it was ( no need to mention the drunk in the ally bit [emoji12] ) Maybe you'll get a free repair.

If you've tried rebooting it under a bright light, and all the software is still stock. There's not much else it can be.
Incompatible kernels can cause a similar issue but that's only for modified devices.

Don't blame me for something strange in the settings

It should have no bugs. I'm not a heavy user of m7 and up till now it worked pretty fine

I'll give this a shot.
Oddly the past few weeks I've been having ridiculous random reboots on text messages with good ol cm11. Even No HTC/sprint/Google software installed.
Flash the stock rom, no issues...
Never had this issue the past 4 years until recently... And Trump has been trying to change some laws... Ironic!

What about GSM sim and APN? Looks like "no sim" on screenshot.
Works good. Some minor issue.
Bluetooth isn't passing Pandora info to cars Bluetooth. Kk worked OK.
Setup wizards times out activating cellar service on every boot , canceling it kills it, and works regardless.
Texting/cdma/callls/lte are OK.
I've gotten a few random reboots, not sure if it's related to me and the stupid things I try. It was flawless until I started to add my personal daily driver apps.
Tethered 120Gb the past few days through it without issue. Gets warm, but I need to get my new battery installed.
Anything specific or logs just ask and I'll try hand supply them.
Much Michael appreciated work on the efforts to keep the m7 living strong! I have 4 more spares...

Finally got back on Samsung after a break from my Note 3, with a Note 8, carrier unlocked U.S.. One thing I miss is having full screen call/contact pics. For the life of me I cant figure out why they would make the contact pic so small when making, receiving or in progress of a call. Its pretty close to the size of the send/end call button. I guess maybe its a Nougat thing, because my V20 was the same way. Question is, does anyone have any insight into a remedy for this. Non-Root remedy perhaps.. Any themes or anything of that nature that may exist with full screen caller ID/Contact pic. Thanks in advance
You could try this. Although not full screen, but a little bit better..

Same here...Waiting since s8 got oreo beta...
@RequeLine any hopes..
It was best during Note 2, 3, 4 days where really we used to have caller image as that of size of screen size. Developer like Poppuri had best of it. Now a days all half screen image are seen in Oreo custom roms except some apps in play store.
Figured I would drop back in on the off chance that someone has come up with a fix. The link in this thread worked fine until Oreo came around. And as of now, only the European version has the capability of larger contact/in call pics. Anyone have any luck with US unlocked version?
