[GUIDE] [ROOT] Enable 4K UHD video recording on your Note 5 Pro! - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Alright I haven't seen anyone find this yet, so I'll post it here. You WILL need root access to continue.
DISCLAIMER - I've tested this on the MIUI 8.4.3 global beta (oreo) only, but i guess it might work on all miui versions. Please report your results.
Okay enough talking, lets get to it.
1. Open /system/etc/device_features/whyred.xml
2. Find the line that says "support_camera_4k_quality"
3. Change the "false" to "true", then save the file. (check attached screenshot)
4. Reboot and boom, you have UHD 4K option under video resolution
That's pretty much it! Cheers
Update: Here's a magisk module by @j1505243 if you're lazy

Almost all third party cameras allow that. This guide is for enabling it in stock camera.

Thanks Bud!

it records in 4k without stabilization

Raw support?

Hello, I don't have the Honor 6x. Is it possible to shoot in raw with 3rd party camera apps? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera2_compatibility_test If yes, are manual exposure, etc supported with 3rd party camera apps (Manual Camera)?
Does the stock camera app support raw after the Nougat update?
Yes it supports raw but not on the stock camera app. i use manual camera app for that.
i tried installing other apps like proshot, AZcamera, open camera etc but sad part is, in all of them longest shutter speed is limited to 1 sec.
Cameara FV-5 also supports raw and it gives better shutter speed but i dont think it is working on this phone.
Yes, there is but use 3rd party apps.
Untill now honor didn't include Raw format in their camera app
You can use this method, just shared it in the guides section as well. An option will appear for the stock camera.

[Q]Pixel 2/2XL Portrait mode and HDR+ on Pixel and Pixel XL possibility ?!?!?

I wonder if the new portrait algorithm and HDR+ will ever be able to make it to the Pixel/Pixel XL? I don't see why it could not be able to do it? From my understanding, the Pixel 2/Pixel 2 XL could be using the same camera as the HTC U11 since google bought out HTC's mobile department. Both cameras are 12mp 1.4um PDAF dual pixel sensors.
We all know how wonderful the original Pixel/Pixel XL sensor is so I don't see why google cannot make their new algorithm work. Hopefully a wonderful developer can take the apk and work their magic if google do not release an official update.
I wonder if the same Russian Developers BSG can extract the apk and do his thing like what he did with the modded version he has now. Sucks I can't type in Russian or else I would ask him myself.
me,too.For now there is just a camera apk with motion function
A little bit off topic but I'm wondering if there's any camera specially developed for the pixel on xda?

I don't see why they cant bring it to pixel one as well the idea and algorithm seems to hint the possibility on pixel one too. read how pixel 2 does portraits here

Why does everyone think that the portrait mode done on the Pixel 2 is purely software based? It's not, it has special hardware to do it, do people even read?

Yes it can't be, but see here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exmor#List_of_Exmor_RS_sensors
IMO, Pixel 2 using same sensor camera (IMX 362, Dual-pixel, PDAF) hardware phone like HTC U11, ASUS ZenFone 3 Zoom and even Moto G5 Plus.
So, if any dev can ported it software, maybe it can works with other phone with same sensor, support PDAF (dual-pixel).
I heard on a Pixel review video that the Pixel 2 Camera APK can be put onto the pixel... does anyone have a link on where this is done? Thanks!

No, lol. I was actually not being sarcastic by that comment so sorry if it sounded like that. Maybe I should have said, have fun instead haha. Those are safe but the newest ones are test/beta and there are some stable ones. Just go through the link and read up on changelogs and stuff. I use Arnovas gcam which I prefer. The different devs has different preference so basically you'll have to test them out for yourself and see what you prefer.

P20 pro not YouTube signature device?

So, YouTube published this list
https://devicereport.youtube.com/
And while for example mate 10 pro is present there, Huawei's latest flagship p20 pro is not. Anybody knows what is the reason for that? It's a pity to pay more than 800€ for a device she not have the flagship experience.

I wonder if it's something to do with either the notch or aspect ratio? I dunno but they might add more devices soon.

Forgot that device existed. I wonder why then. Like i say they might add it to the list later on.
It might have to do with the fact that the screen is not HDR10 certified, like the Mate 10 Pro's. Though I find it kinda silly, since this one basically uses the same panel.

I also think that it has something to do with HDR. Now Netflix seems to work with HD and HDR, but YouTube I haven't seen with HDR yet
i think just the matter of time until it got certified.
a lot of devices (not just P20 pro) were left out if we about to see it that way.

I already installed it today on my L09, turn on force vp9 codec on vance option but can't see hdr option for any video, only 1080p 60fps.
Any idea?
Edit: Solution found, had to tap some times over "about" in vance options and new options where activated under codec.

GCAM

This works fabulously on my Huawei P20 Pro
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova-TlnNeun_Urnyx05-v3.6.apk
Portait, Night Sight and Photobooth don't work though. This I expected.
I've had a quick play and there's no issues taking pictures.
Thanks a lot for the link, been looking for a gcam port. Appreciate it.
what settings did you enter?
I cant seem to get the viewfinder to work. Do you what settings are required?
Still no HDR+.
Does not work for me, black screen in photo mode.

This is what I'm using and it's working pretty well for me so far.
Using EMUI 9 here.
that worked, thanks.
Set to "Pixel2018 HW Zsl Hdr(need YUV)" and no black screen. ?
It work but still no HDR+
It works but still no Night or portrait mode. Any config idea?
No ideas at the moment.
Been wondering myself if there's a way to get them to work.
Fabulous, yes HDR+ doesn't work but finally its the end of the Huawei heavy post-process, I tried and love the softness of pictures, ability to choose the quality of pictures, noise reduction etc...
Btw "normal" Panorama (not 360) is super laggy, but works.
Big thanks for the share, I was really waiting for it!

I tested how quickly I can take pictures.
In its standard setting (36mp I think)I estimate I can take a picture every 1-2 seconds.
In 108mp mode it takes several seconds before I can take another picture.
Not very scientific, but I hope it helps.

I did a before and after test. 4k is definitely less laggy then before, though I think it still had some slight lag if your looking for it. My wife wouldn't notice and I barely can. It's certainly improved.
I filmed a test video so you can judge for yourself...
