I'm sorry, it's not possible at this time :\.
I think that photosphere will only work (at least work fine) at devices with gyroscope. And, Moto G hasn't it.
Hey there I want to buy a Moto g 2013 not LTE. I've 2 questions for all the member:
1)his device will get android L?
2)the camera(front/back) quality is really bad as we read on internet and on review?
Hope I get answers I really love this device

1) As far as I know, there's a not-so-bad chance that the Moto G will get Android L.
2) It's mainly because of the low quality built-in camera app. It's better to use an alternative camera app to take better pictures.

The stock app takes more normal pictures on manual focus ot at least it did during my test run.

1) Probably yes
2) The camera it's good but it's not a amazing quality
3) I recommend to you buy a LTE version 'cause he has a gyroscope sensor
Hello Nex-Fans,
Vivo has announced the first OS update for our device which improves the overall, the game, camera and fingerprintscanner performance.
Source:
Gizchina
Thanks! I suppose we will get that automatically (when checked in update settings), but thanks anyway for notifying it here.
Despiter updates(there's even newer update than those at first page) the underscreen display scanner remain problematic according to fresh reviews from android authority.
https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-nex-review-875140/
Hopping retail unit perfom better.
Saw many reviews and tests on YouTube and nobody has mentioned such problems with the Fingerprintscanner. I think this will be a "Pre-Release-Device" problem.

Damn that's a really scathing review especially re. the software and OS. Makes me kind of disinterested tbh, because the UX sounds like a ****ing hassle
I'm not so negative ... In my opinion it's a very early stage of the device and i think some points are related to the Pre-Release-Device he has. On the software side i think it's only a question of time until there are some other options.
I have a Zuk Z2 Pro and know what i'm talking about. The ZUI interface was only crap but now it's running AOSP Android 8.1 and i'm really really happy with the device. It's better then my S8 was.
Yes but the kicker is as always, does the bootloader get unlocked... I don't know about Vivo and their practices on this.
I actually received my second update on my Nex already... and while the fingerprint reader can be finicky it has worked well (one thing that helped was adding both thumbs 2times)

I got the update a day or two ago as well.....
Any idea (translation) of what it actually encompassed?
only thing i have noticed a improvement on is the Fingerprint reader(seems much more consistent) , the camera seems to focus better and give slightly better results. Also the three bars at the bottom of the home screen are at the absolute bottom now and much wider.

THX!....
After you posted this,I decided to take a look in the Settings > System Update & found the update notes in English (probably translated to whatever default language you choose) & pretty much line-up with your observations/usage:
The notes may have been available in the previous updates,but,I didn't notice the little arrow to click on to read the notes (probably there all along)......

haha yeah the arrow has been there to check the changelog but the improvements they claim are actually noticable to me at least ?
FunTouch OS is the only thing that's keeping me from buying this phone... Any thoughts on the overall phone functionality from people that have it? I currently own a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 and love it except for the selfie camera being on the bottom of my screen. My main thing would be to be able to get the Play Store and use Bluetooth with my car audio system... Any thoughts appreciated ?

I might be having one serious BLONDE MOMENT :laugh: ,but,I can't seem to find how to make the YouTube app play by default,from links in email/texts/etc.....
Again,it could just be me,the settings on this phone are convoluted,makes Huawei & Xiaomi look clean & simple by comparison.......
So,in the meantime,I'm using this default picker app to help out:

Installing the micro g file from above link doesn’t work??
I used 0.2.4-105 version from above link and always works great.
You can try both of them providing.

I go back and forth seemingly daily. I lust for the hardware, it is to me the next step on the path to OLED in-display cameras, but that bizarre Android iOS clone nonsense they have going on is pushing me away. Funtouch sounds like a waking nightmare.
I currently have a Mi Mix 2, and already the rumor mill is in full swing re. the Mix 3. Google Mi Mix 3 and check out some early leaks, they are rumored to follow the Nex style. Admitted MIUI is not all that great either, but at least Xiaomi is a bit more dev friendly on releasing the kernels etc. And sorry for the hijack
Hello,
I'm diving now into the Google Camera world and with the G8 Plus, I'm not really sure which version of Gcam is the best for this phone model, and also i dont know exactly which settings we should tweak to take good pictures, any guidance would be super appreciated.
Thank you.
-MOTO-G8-Plus-PMGC_7.0.009_FinalBuild_v14.apk
-Camera_MX_4.7.200.apk
-My favourite is Open Camera.apk by Mark Harman -free on Play Store
You must know that you cannot store photos on SD with GCamera on unrooted Moto G8 Plus.
The next two allow you to store on SD.
Choice is yours
All the best !

Thank you very much for the suggestion. Hypercam works nicely, but I'm not able to use the wide angle lens.
Otherwise I've found that you con choose the lens you want with Urnyx05 GCam port.

Works nicely, and apart from the distorsion of the preview, you can use the wide angle lens: any suggestion to correct this??
