This thread is only for the questions and answers about OPPO Find X5 Pro. Please adhere to XDA rules when you participate in this event.

What new functionalities will be bring to #OPPOFindX5Series thanks to Marisilicon X NPU concerning photography and video recording?

How/when can I use my voice to take a picture (e.g.: camera snaps a photo when I say "smile")?
How/when can I create folders in the app drawer?
How/when can I set my own .mp4 as live wallpaper?
How/when can I sync the 'Eye Comfort' mode with sunset/-rise?
How/ when can I use a highlighter on screenshots?
How/when can I maximise battery charging to 85%?
How/when can I personalised caller background (e.g. custom .mp4 upon incoming calls by certain contacts)?
How/when can I sort favourites in my contact list? Just discovered this can be done by long-pressing and sliding the contacts.
How/when is Android Auto's responsiveness upon touch on a car's head unit enhanced? Especially Android Auto's launch bar is not responding well on my Volvo's Sensus system whilst this is absolutely working fine with my old smartphone (famous Korean brand).

Are there any plans to allow users to unlock their bootloader?
If not, what is the reason behind that decision?

Why oppo is not adding 4k in front camera as its a camera centric smartphone and to be comfortable for vloggers and for some front camera lovers there must be a 4k option in front camera.

Will it launch in India ?

What is the difference between these 2 camera modes.
50mp mode and high-res mode as they both are giving same resolution image so why there is two options.

Got one question regarding Android 13 schedule: is there already a timeline for both Find X5 and X5 Pro?
And will there be more integrations of Material 3 theming in the future? Such as the themed icons.
Thank you!

Hi Mike, thanks for your question. OPPO's self-developed MariSilicon X imaging NPU can activate when capturing low light video, effectively improve the nighttime imaging capabilities of Find X5 Pro, greatly reduce noise through self-developed AINR and other advanced algorithms, and HDR Fusion capabilities to enhance night scenes that complement each other. It can achieve 4K ultra-clear night scene video shooting and solve a problem that plagued mobile phones since they first captured video.

With the Find X5 Pro, you can use your voice to take pictures, use a highlighter on screenshots, custom your ringtone and vibration, and sort favorites in your contact list.

Would you mind telling me how?
I have a Find X5 Pro and I haven't been able to find a way to take pictures by voice-command, highlight screenshots (there's a pencil and a brush, straight lines and arrows but NO 'yellow marker') nor do the other stuff in my list.
Ringtone and vibration are obviously customisable which is why I did not mention that. And I had already figured out the sorting of contacts which is what I already added to my list.

Sorry for mistakenly getting your point. Now the two methods of taking photos are by "Touch to Capture" and "Show palm". As for the screenshot highlighter, markup on the screenshot is supported, however, highlighting screenshots through a pencil and a brush is not supported.

Intriguingly, my Find X5 Pro does offer pencil and brush options, contrary to the 'yellow marker'-highlighter I'd rather have:
As for the other questions I had in my list but haven't been addressed: any idea on those?

Got it. When it comes to the Yellow Highlighter with a pencil and brush to highlight one sentence like the function in Office Docs or PDF [that's what we thought you were wondering], it is less common and used in phone screenshots. And YES, the phone supports the markup function with a pencil and brush as you show, allowing you to bring out details and key points.

I want to be able to unlock the bootloader. Can OPPO Ambassadors Team tell me how and what i need to do to unlock bootloader

Moved thread here as the old one got moved to Q & A.
Please feel free to leave suggestions for new updates and we will try to include them in the future!
Thanks dev for this amazing app - easily my favorite on the market!
The only thing missing from this app is geotagging pictures - could I suggest that for a future update?
Glad you are enjoying the app.
Thanks for the suggestion - we'll try and get geotagging included in the next update.
Thanks so much for finally doing a proper photobooth option! I've been waiting for this on all the camera apps!
The other stuff in the app is very good, but a digital zoom is no different than zooming a picture you have already taken. Shame the G1 does not have an optical zoom. That would go along nice with this app.
Thanks for the feedback.
The app's original intention was to add digital zoom to the market and we were the first market application to do so.
We have moved more now into creating a very powerful, feature-rich and fun to use camera app.
Look out for more updates soon!
Thanks for keeping the size down too! I, for one, hope you dont add too much post-processing features to the app (filters, etc...) these are not practical on the phone (in my opinion) and do nothing but bloat the app! (I won't name names, but there's another camera app that is 3 times the size of yours and is a bear to work with.)
One thing I'd like to see, as far as flters go, is pre-defined adjustments. Almost all pictures taken with the camera need to have their brightness and contrast adjusted. If there was a way to auto adjust this based on an algorithm (like photoshop does) that would be perfect.
Brightness and contrast filters will certainly be coming in a future update and we'll look into auto adjust as you suggest.
In case you didn't already hear, Camera ZOOM has been nominated for best camera app in the Android Network Awards ...
We have worked hard to be the most feature-rich, innovative and fun camera and have given you some great features including original digital zoom, free skins, photo booth, circular zoom, quick settings, stability meter, buddies and customizable buttons to name a few.
And there’s lots more to come …
Hopefully you are as excited about Camera ZOOM as we are – please show us your support by voting here (voting ends on 16th August) :
http://answers.polldaddy.com/poll/1852657
Looks awesome, but the thing that is creeping me out is your backyard and backdoor looks identical to mine, and I mean COMPLETELY identical.
That is kind of creepy but I don't think we even live in the same country!
Of course I voted for you androidslide!
But I need my geotagging feature - any idea when its coming?!
In the next few weeks certainly. Lots of other features coming soon ... keep the ideas coming!
A Facebook group is out there now for Camera ZOOM for Android!
Feel free to log in and leave suggestions / feedback and help for new users :

Also last chance tonight to vote for best camera app :
http://answers.polldaddy.com/poll/1852657
androidslide would like to thank everyone who supported Camera ZOOM in the Android Network Awards.
The results were close ... in fact almost too close to call - this is what I heard back from the organizer this morning :
'Snap Photo Pro got 44% while Camera ZOOM got 40%. The difference was about 50 votes'
We are very pleased with this turnout - obviously we would have been even more pleased had we won (!), but to achieve such a huge response within less than 3 months on the market is a huge result for us - so thanks again to everyone for the support!
Look out for more great features from us very soon - in the meantime, take a look at our list of features, many of which are exclusive to Camera ZOOM :
http://www.androidslide.com/camerazoom
Have been having fun wiht this app for a little while now. There is one problem I have with it. In order to get the pictures to look correct when adding people/object overlays I need to get my subject to pose correctly for the effect to look right. Would be amazing if I could edit the overlays before or after the shot. (ie move the overlay around and more importantly the ability to erase portions of the overlay.)
Thanks for the fun app
Thanks everyone for joining our Facebook group - now 56 members!

There's already been some great suggestions on there which are already scheduled for the next update.
Whether you have a G1, Magic, Hero, MyTouch, join our Facebook Group for your Camera Zoom FAQS, tips, hints, snaps, requests and anything else you can think of!
Look out for a new props packs (draggable artwork to add to your picture) on the market now - Camera ZOOM Extra Props
We also have a new Camera ZOOM update coming out soon - watch this space!
Camera ZOOM 1.6 has now been released :
- 1-click upload to your favorite social network (Facebook, Flickr, MySpace, etc.)
- Voice activation - say cheese!
- Faster

Since you have been a pioneer in the camera app realm and also in the gallery realm why not continue this pace and incorporate some sort of wobble or jiggle filter that uses the accelerometer to manipulate real time wobble/jiggle effects to pictures taken or already stored? Now that would surely be a winner.

All feedback / feature requests are welcome as always!
how do I actually get this? Is there an apk for it or is available on the market or something? Cuz I didn't see a link for downloading it when i checked the website. Just more information about what it did. Thanks in advance.
Search for 'Photo BURST' in the market.
thanks for the quick response. Checking now..
Just checked this on Market.
Wanted to say thanks for an amazing app!
The stock gallery app was pretty poor especially compared to iphone etc, but with this new app I can really enjoy my pics in style! Slideshow is a standout - especially collage!
Suggestions would be to add exclude folder option and tagged images.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for all the feedback on this app.
We have just released an update 1.0.1 which improves picture quality and fixes all known bugs from the original release.
Please let us know how everyone gets on with the new update.
Much more coming soon ...
Wow just tried the demo of this app and it's looking good. Like the features you've introduce so far. Could be a really good app.
It does keep crashing after the phone goes to sleep though for me. I'm on CyanogenMOD 4.0.4 ATM. If this can be fixed I think it will be one of my next purchases.
Thanks for the feedback.
Another user just reported going to sleep resume issue so we'll look into that next.
Released update 1.1 :
- Ping.Fm = 1 click send to Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Flickr, etc.
- Zoom sensitivity option
- Folder gallery bg color option
More coming soon ...
Awesome looking app. Seems like after a few minutes it just goes to sleep and my phone is totally unresponsive for a minute.
Running on a G1 with apps on SD card
Great job so far.
Some ideas/thoughts:
1. The scrolling is a bit weird. Almost like it's scrolling faster than I'm moving my finger. Instead of it being 1:1 it seems to be scrolling further than I want as I move.
2. It would help a lot if the size of the folder buttons was larger. The first screen where you see the listing of all the directories on your card that have photos. I've missed the button I want a few times since they aren't tall enough for a satisfying hit area.
3. If I choose "share" from any image, choose gmail for instance, and send or discard the message, when it drops me back into the app I see the splash screen and then the directory chooser again. Not the image I was just looking at. Frustrating!
4. That splash screen has to go. It makes sense for the indexing part, but when there is no indexing, or in the case of coming back to the app like I mentioned above, it's annoying.
That aside, it's looking pretty good! The last update improved IQ greatly. No more color banding on gradients!
The latest update (1.1.2) fixed #3 from my previous post. Nice!
Thanks for feedback - released update 1.1.2 :
- Ping.Fm = 1 click send to Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Flickr, etc.
- Zoom sensitivity option
- Folder gallery bg color option
- Help guide
More coming soon including delete option.
Very nice app, however i find the double tap / circular zoom procedure a bit difficult to master. I would certainly pay for app if it supported multi touch zoom as well.
Best rgds,
Geir
features to add
this application is great as it stands, beautiful UI very well done transitions its great, but a couple of features i would really like to see would be the ability for this applications to be the default picture grabber for aplications and such instead of the gallery(though this would probably have to be edited on both sides of it yours and the sides of the applications themselves), the second being easily enough done would be the ability to hide folders of pictures from the main page and/or the ability to sort the picture folders as this would eliminate need to remove them just place them somewhere else
There's another bug I found: view a picture, open the hardware keyboard on a G1. The app will exit back out to the splash screen and show you the folder picker again.
Happens on any open/close of the keyboard.
Thanks for the feedback. We'll look into and implement all the suggestions mentioned above :
- flip open issue
- hide folders
- multitouch for rooted / supported phones
- single tap to get zoom wheel
- splash screen only during indexing
- folder icons bigger
- more standard scrolling
Look out for updates soon - also feel free to join our Facebook group :

Would love a default folder or "exclude" folder option.
I want to show people pics without them having to go through every stupid jpg on the memory card from apps , and would like to avoid them stumbling into pics I want private.
Im aware of privacy folder apps but this app could kill 2 birds with one stone but letting us have the option to open a default folder that it always looks into and opens on program.
Splash screen and indexing need to be minimized and "when needed" only.
Finger swipe and zoom functions are fantastic but cant use as default until those things are implemented.
Thanks for the suggestions. Default folder and exclude folders are both planned for a future update.
We are 50% complete on the new update which significantly reduces loading time and only indexes required thumbnails.
We are also updating all of our apps to include support for Droid so it may take a liitle longer.
We are open to any suggestions for future updates so keep the ideas coming.

[APP] JotPad 1.6 -[U]- 08/Feb/2012 - Drawing app with SkyDrive upload and multitouch

JotPad 1.6
A nice YouTube video of me explaining what this app can do. This video is for version 1.4.
App description
What is the Jotapad? It's a Windows Phone app to jot down anything you want. Having a conversation with someone and really need
to do a drawing to illustrate your thoughts? This is the app you've been looking for!
Want to scribble over a picture of your boss just for fun? Add a moustache and a beard like you did in the high school? Have a blast!
Just want to pass some time doing some doodles? You've came to the right place!
What are the new features of version 1.6?
- Undo support. Now you can undo any lines you draw or erase. Quite handy!
- Auto Live ID sign-in. The app will try to sign-in with your Live ID without you having to go to the settings page. A time saver.
- Improved error reporting. I'm using the excelent BugSense to catch and log any unhandled exception so I can better fix it. If you're a developer check their page. This little plugin is brilliant! http://www.bugsense.com
- Pro Pen Selector. I've done a brand new, free form pen selector for the paid version of this app. Check it out.
What about the existing features?
- Multiple drawing pages
And you can copy/paste the lines between them!
- SkyDrive upload
Login with your Windows Live ID and upload your doodles straight to your SkyDrive!
- Page background colors
A multitude of page background colors can be chosen.
- Custom background images
Use any image from your Pictures Hub as the background of your doodle or take a photo straight from the image selection page!
- Save to the phone
Save your drawings to the Pictures Hub, sync them with your PC or share your doodle
using any of the supported services by your Windows Phone.
- Live Tile
If you pin the app to the start screen it will show the last drawing you made.
- Multi touch
Using two fingers you are able to zoom, rotate and move around the page of your drawing.
- Shake to clear
By shaking your phone it will vibrate and clear your drawing.
There are some limitations to this free version, but the app will let you know about these and provide an upgrade path for you.

Hi,
thanks for this serious work, when i see all options i can just congrats you for the deep development you did. free version is great enough for common use...nice app!
little feedback : when the white background appears, ready to use, it's opened with a zoom (x8 i think) applied by default...should be 1:1 ratio by default don't you think?

I'm glad you like it! Yet I have quite a few ideas I haven't implemented yet so this is not the final version, at all.
I do have a question regarding this forum. When I update my app, should I create a new thread for it like I've been doing or should I edit the old thread and bump it to the top?
mmmh...i think all threads are edited in case of updates...but you should ask a dev because i didn't post any new thread for now :/ sorry.
i'm curious to see what you could add to your app, an inbuilt messenger?

Multiple drawing pages instead of just one, for example, it's a very requested feature.
EDIT: I'm doing that at the moment, do you guys think I should use some text to identify the pages like in this screenshot? Of just the image thumbnails would be fine?

I've only noticed that feedback right now. Yes, I think you are absolutely right, I've had a few emails of people having trouble understanding this app supports pinch to zoom. Actually I've just anwsered one such email right now.
EDIT: I've fixed it, but I want to finish the rest of the features I'm working on for this version before pushing it out. In the meantime I'm going to edit the marketplace description to warn people off.
EDIT 2: I've placed a callout ballon to let new users know the page is zoomed, I've opted by this because otherwise the drawn lines would look too thin and people would be confused (again...).
Page identification would be nice but that way takes too much space...
"page x" could be written with transparent fonts? without creating a two parts tile...why not a dynamic one with drawings on first side and "page x" on the other (would be awesome but perhaps hard to build).

Cool...
the pinch & turn to zoom & rotate is very efficient!
if you need to translate your app into other languages, many people here would be happy to help just for fun (serious work is the rule!)...i could do the french one.
Have a nice weekend!

I was going to do flipping tiles like you said, but as you can see there's a known bug on the Silverlight Toolkit that mirrors the text upside down if no background image is set (see page 2 and 5):
<rant more> And if that was the only bug with that Toolkit we'd all be very happy...</rant mode> Anyway, I've used it for a while and it's kind of annoying actually, if you're looking for a specific drawing on a tile and then half of them flip, you have to sit there waiting for them to flip back, and if the ones you want to see don't flip, you have to wait even more...
I think I'm better off leaving it alone.

What are the new features of this version?
- I've added the AdDuplex control to get some good exposure, what is your opinion on network guys?
- Phone vibrates when you shake the phone to clear the drawing.
- Animated pages on phone rotation.
- Pictures uploaded to the SkyDrive they are placed in a folder called JotPad.
- Fixed a bug that slowed down drawing in certain circumstances
I've done a paid version of this app that allows users to draw over live video captured by the phone's camera. I can't post it here because it's paid, but can you guys go to this thread and check it out? There's a trial version you can download to see if you like it. As always get back to me with any questions or suggestions!

Manual focus to infinity results in blurry pictures

Hi everyone,
my p30 Pro seems to have a limited manual focus range, in particular when pushing the cursor to infinity.
When I point the phone to something very far away the autofocus works well, the resulting picture is perfectly sharp.
Now if I switch to manual focus and slide the cursor all the way up, I can clearly see a difference ! It seems to be occurring only when using the main 27mm lens.
Here is an example. Left manual focus, right AF-S :

I just updated my phone to .161, the problem still exists. I am pretty sure it is software-related as the AF works perfectly, but I didn't find anything about it through the internet.
I also tried with another app, 'HD Camera Pro', which allows to manually set the focus and it is still the same.
Any ideas ? Am I the only one ?
If I remember correctly, this "bug" was already present in the P20 Pro's Software last year. The work around was not to drag the slider to the right completely but leave a little wiggle room (like, focus to 95% of infinity). You could try if it still works.
Yep I read something about this, it happened to the Pixel 2 also if I am not mistaken ! Sadly it doesn't work for me, my focus isn't past the limit, it just can't make it to infinity ... and beyond
Could some people please try to reproduce this on their p30 pro ? If I am the only one (which I hope to be), I'll ask for a replacement of my unit ...
Have you checked if its ok if you stop short before hitting infinity?

It happens for me too. In manual focus it does not reach all the way to infinity.

Yes I did ! Here is the test :
The first picture is with Autofocus.
The second one is with Manual Focus, with the cursor all the way up to the maximum.
The third one is theoretically the exact same focus level as AF, as it keeps the setting when you open the Manual Focus Tab. So this one was 2 little graduations before the maximum.

Thank you ! I feel relieved in a way, at least I'm not the only one :laugh: So, I guess it is indeed software related.
Thing is, it happens with other apps I tried (HD Camera Pro, DeepSkyCamera), so I reckon the issue exists at the camdriver level...
Anyone managed to get around this issue? It's really annoying when I'm trying to take multiple pictures of the night sky, I cannot fix the focus. Auto focus keeps changing it between pictures. (I'm using an intervallometer app.).
Is there an official Huawei site to report bugs.
Thanks.
I tested this on both p30 pro and P20 pro with latest 9.1 patch, if you drag the manual focus to the top it lose all focus on both devices . So it's software related.
This is a common "issue" with lenses. AFAIK all DSLR and mirrorless lenses behave this way, no matter the price tag.

Can you upload your camera folder with fx explorer from system/odm/camera via copy. Fx explorer link is here. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx may be some help...
I have this problem too, I thought my phone was damaged! Autofocus gives a clear image but manual doesn't go far enough out. It happens in Filmic Pro too. Kind of disappointing that this bug exists in a phone designed around a cutting edge camera system. And why can't we use wide angle in manual mode? Or disable the EIS?
I had a LG V20 before this and it's stock camera app was soooo much better.

On my normal P30 I can use wide angle with Pro mode and manual focus

Yes with photos I can, but in video mode the option disappears.
And if you use wide angle in Filmic Pro it is far wider. They need to give us an option to disable EIS.

There is no Pro mode for video, at least on my P30 anyway, video is it's own mode, fairly basic
Might be something to do with Android 9 though as the Galaxy S9 did have a video pro mode on Android 8, but was removed in Android 9

Yes go to Pro Mode and then hit the video button beside the shutter. I'm using Android 9. You can control focus, white balance, exposure.. 1 to 10x zoom, but no wide. They really need to add focus peaking too.

Ah ok I see it now, but I do have the wide option too (Normal P30 not Pro)
EDIT - Wide only shows with 1080p, not with 4k
p30 main camera incapable of focusing at infinity manually
I have the same problem with the main camera on my p30 too. And this is really bad for me because I shoot timelapses of the stars. Unbelievable! I'm looking now to seee if I can send the phone back.

Today the answer what is this for settings. Afterwards they understand, the replied no some feature should be include now, maybe later. Its was huawei Sweden.
Many users are complaining this on the official Chinese Huawei forum as well. https://club.huawei.com/search.php?mod=forum&searchid=83908992&searchsubmit=yes Seems like Huawei is ditching this feature on P30 Pro

No they won't, it's a Noweiway move to get users to buy kirin 990 Mate 30 pro. Even the old Samsung S7 from three years ago had a better more functional AOD than a 2018 Huawei phone. Shame on them.

I agree. Poor for a flagship device.
From what I read by them on their forums when someone asked about this NOT being seen on Emui 10 P30 Pro. They said its only on the NEW Mate 30. And they are happy to hear our requests for new features blah blah blah in coming updates. So.. yeah.. not coming..unless they change it
It's possible that they decided not to roll out this feature for the P30 Pro even though their promotional images show the P30 Pro running their new AOD. Personally I just ended up building my own custom AOD with third-party apps. Probably more customisable than the official option too.
Glad I don't use AOD. Very weak AOD for a 2018 flagship, when other manufacturers had better useful AODs back in 2015.

Welcome to 2016 Huawei. Yet, seeing it would be believing it in 2020 as nearly all their official comments and statements in recent times has never materialized. Lame excuse that only kirin 990 can support it.

I used Always on Edge to build a custom AOD setup. I set it up with a basic clock/date widget that displays a pulsing light at the top (similar to a notification LED) and app icons below the clock. It's also got a notification summary below that will display the app and notification title, but not the actual notification message content. Here's how it looks:
Originally the app is supposed to flash the edge of the phone screen for notifications but there's the option to replace the edge lighting with a more subtle LED effect. You can also customise the widget layout, size, and content (such as adding music playback controls that only display when music is playing). You can also set which apps are whitelisted or blacklisted from showing up in the notifications list as well as timing of the AOD. Instead of making it constantly display, I set it to only show up when notifications come in or when the device is charging. The app is free with the full feature set but you have to watch an ad every time a setting is changed. You can remove this with an in-app purchase though.
On there web site forums someone asked about this for the P30 Pro. They said.. it was not for the P30 pro.

Could you export that layout? I've not been able to reproduce it and I like it.
Thanks!

Sorry, there's a bug with the app that prevents me from exporting or importing any config files.
Coming soon as separate update
