1st of all i must say sorry if there is another post about this but, is there a way to improve youtube video quality on our XL?????
the best quality im getting on youtube is 360p... our phone can play 720p videos without problems or lags but youtube only gets up to 360p
my phone is full stock device and bootloader is locked
you need to have root access
2 ways to improve quality:
1- With a modded youtube app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715
cons: old version of youtube
pro: have many extra options like playing in background etc etc
2 - fake resolution: you can use xposed with "app settings" ,module to set the youtube app working with a higher resolution with lower dpi, this will enable 720p in the app

can u explain me how to set it??? i've downloaded it and set to 280 dpi (600x1024) but didnt see any improvement....
BTW my phone is rooted
*EDITED*
nvm i realize how to do it
I've recently rooted Euclidean 7.0 Nougat ROM on my Nexus 5.
I also checked the app "Google Camera" on Playstore but cannot find it. (Camera app used to appear on AOSP playstore). Neither is it listed in Settings>Apps
Please Help
Same. Although I found it via All My Apps on Play Store. But the app is not working properly. It opens up, but after trying to take a photo, the photo does not save. I get no preview in the gallery either. When I try to record a video, a still image shows on playback and I can listen to the sound only. I tried flashing twice from factory image but no luck. Would like to know a solution to this.
UPDATED - NOW WITH STABLE 30/60/90/120 FPS IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS!
NOTE! YOUR DEVICE MUST HAVE UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER! THIS INSTRUCTION ONLY FOR SNAPDRAGON VERSION PHONES!
Instruction for android nougat(TWRP):
If you want to record smooth 60(90) fps fullhd and 120fps hd videos with clear stereo sound and stabilization, follow these several simple steps:
1. Okay, it is supposed, that your device has unlocked bootloader, installed usb drivers and last fimware on android nougat or android oreo.
First of all, go to camera settings and wipe all data from system camera app, then download all necessary files from my GoogleDrive folder "ALL TOOLS" HERE.
Copy all files on your sd card except recovery.7z
2. Unpack recovery.7z on PC in any folder.
Turn off your smartphone and enter fastboot mode(vol- and power on), connect your phone to PC and run boot_twrp.bat from "tools_r25.0.3-windows (2)" folder, follow instructions on the screen.
Wait for running twrp. (TWRP recovery won't be flashed on your device!)
P.S. Pass this step if u aready have flashed twrp recovery before it.
3. Tap install, and flash: Camera_2API_addon.zip => camera.zip => sound_fix_redmi_note4x_v1.zip=>BOLTiSHok_60-90_FPS_FHD_s5k3l8 & fiks cvet-90moto_60gcam&snap.zip(for samsung s5k3l8 sensor) or BOLTiSHok_superFPS.zip(for all types of camera sensor)=>( and MIUICameraBraviaV4.zip if you want replace miui stock camera app with modified one)
back to previous menu and wipe dalvic/art and cache
And finally DO NOT FORGET FLASH lazyflasher-no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip !
Reboot your smartphone and enjoy smooth video 60 fps recording with clear stereo sound with snapdragon camera.
Note. Your default media profiles will be replaced with modified ones and all camera apps now using h.265 codec with fix for sound recording.
P.S. And of course 60 fps recording requires a lot of light, so unfortunately you can not make a video inside buildings with low light.
Also, I noticed some glitch, when i try to switch between 4k and 1080p mode with enabled stabilization, so i recommend to turn it off before changing resolution in video settings. + slow mo 720 p recording seems not working, but it works in miui camera
Okay, Now you can record with stable 30/60/90(for FULLHD)/120 fps(for HD) even in low light conditions!
Original libs for turning back also added.
All video modes(for samsung sensor) atm are:
4K/1080p 30FPS
FULLHD(60/90 FPS), HD(60/90/120 FPS), Front Camera(HD 60 FPS)
SLOW MOTION: FULLHD(60/90 FPS), HD(60/90/120 FPS), Front Camera(HD 60 FPS)
Slow motion video sample in 1080p
Instruction for android oreo and android nougat for all sensors(MAGISK) without sound fix and snapdragon camera:
Use magisk modules from my GoogleDrive folder "ALL TOOLS" HERE.
There are 2 types of module:
1) For Android Nougat and Oreo(non treble)
2) For Oreo(treble)
======================================================================================================================================================
Now u can record 60 fps video with GCAM
======================================================================================================================================================
Warning! Upgrading your fimware is accompanied by erasing "/system" partition, therefore you have to repeat all steps from instruction again!

I was waiting for your thread since you announced it on 4pda, let's see.
I have some questions.
I am on LinageOS, do I have to flash camera2api again even though I already have it enabled?
Can I still install the modded Google camera without having any conflict? No conflicts with h.265codec?
Is this the MIUi camera which works on custom ROM? Does beautify work?
My biggest concern is the Google camera. I don't want to mess it up. Your post says snapdragon camera will be installed right? So recording in 60fps will only work on that app and not others?

I cant say how it works on lineageos, because i have never installed it.
If u have camera2api enabled already, so obivously u do not need to flash it again.
I have installed miui mod camera, gcam and snapdragon camera together, all apps using the same h265 codec and i dont have any conflicts, all works pretty well.
I shot several videos in these apps and only snapcamera allows to record true 60 fps.

Thanks I will try it. How about other apps like Facebook Live, instagram? Snapchat? Will this be messed?
Also how about safety net and Magisk? Will safetynet still pass? I'll try it out.

I dunno why u worry about fb and other messengers, it doest even relate to video calls
Shortly ur profiles for sound and video will be replaced, thats all. If lineageos has the same paths for these files, so it should work.
Using Lineage OS 14.1 I can confirm that 60fps and 120slowmo works. I just installed the Snapdragon Camera(apk only). Thanks!
confirmed working on AOSP based rom

Since I didn't install the media_profiles from the zip i don't think so.

I installed with the media_profiles file and it works too
maybe its app dependent?
Do I have to flash lazyflasher, I'm on LOS. And where do I get it?

Even without ZSL phone takes photo almost instant, same as with ZSL turned on. Well, these options seems to not work on our phones too.

I don't think you need lazy flasher if you are on LOS or AOSP? It is only for MIUI roms? I have never used it
That sound fix is the file with media profiles?
I tested Android Oreo's pip and it works for some apps. And since many are saying that it doesn't work, I'll add some screenshots to show that its working. It worked for me with VLC, Video Calling(whatsapp, Duo), Chrome & web Youtube.
For Youtube you need to click on "desktop site" in chrome then play any video in full screen after that press home screen, it'll work.
For VLC, open any video in full screen, click options and select Pip icon and press home screen. As for video calling, it works with Whatsapp video call and Duo.

Also, for PIP to work with the YouTube app, you need to have a YouTube Red subscription.
Not all apps support PiP. To check which app supports PiP go Settings > Apps & notifications > Advanced > Special App Access > Picture in Picture
YouTube PIP isn't working for me

Because you probably don't have Youtube Red.
Look for IYTBP YouTube app on XDA. There are rootless versions. Install them so you can use it with PiP without YouTube Red.

Hi...all my OP6 running on OSS 9.0.2, yesterday I was able to do picture in picture for YouTube by simply using the home gesture swipe up but today it is not working. I checked settings and PIP for YouTube is allowed... What is wrong.. please advise.
Thanks
The Magisk module [Magisk]Youtube Vanced [Official] by KevinX8 works well for PIP.
Use youtube vanaced even it is for non rooted user but you need to install microg for sign in I am using that it working great with PIP and off screen mode
