I purchased the Nexus S 4G for Sprint not too long ago, only to be devastated by it's video recording quality. Really, a 2011 smartphone that doesn't have HD/720p Video Recording capabilities? That is bullcrap!
My question is, can they add HD video recording with a software update? Or is the camera lens on the Nexus S 4G not technically capable of capturing high def videos?
am also looking for the same answer.
iS hD {720p} recording possible in Nexus S {not 4G, regular one}
& is there any way we can use Radio in it

AFAIK its more like a software problem than hardware. Though it may also be due to lack of internal bandwidth between sub systems. It is not a deal breaker for me though I do get like WTF when every Tom, **** and Harry comes with his/her HTC XYZ and tells me about 720p recording :/
These questions were asked multiple times. The short answer is that the parts 720p recording is not possible with a software update. Apparently the NFC module used the space needed for the HD chip.

Can anyone confirm does OnePlus 6 supports Netflix / Amazon Prime HDR option?
Secondly does its Vibration changed as compared to OnePlus 5 phone is concerned because OP 5 vibration alerts are very weird, thanks.
I don't think the OP6 supports HDR yet for Netflix.
It does work amazingly well on youtube HDR videos tho.
But netflix only supports like 10 devices atm if im right

Thanks! How are you satisfied with your p40 pro? I am looking to upgrade between it and the galaxy s20+ so if you could give any feedback..mostly looking at the best camera on one of those two, as far as I've seen both received plenty of updates over the last few months that made most of the reviews obsolete so
If it's not too expensive compared to the 2, go for Mate 40 pro ...

Unfortunately yes, it is. The p40 pro and s20/s20+ have a 50% discount on my carrier currently so I'm limited to those. I wouldn't take them if it weren't for the pretty good deal.
And does netflix work normally? I've read that netflix doesn't support hd resolution on the huawei devices, is that issue gone with installing google apps? Anything else not maybe not working?

It works although you may not find it in the Google Play Store. I installed mine through the Aurora store. How can you tell if it's not playing back in HD? It looks crisp and clear on my phone., not blocky or pixellated.
All the news this week is referring to a Snapdragon 888 and 8Gb ram P12 Pro. Do we think the 870 2021 Xiaoxin will ever receive an International ROM?
I've got one in the mail and thinking I may have made a big mistake. Its main use will be netflix and Disney+ and I wanting to take advantage of Dolby Vision.
Can't say for sure about Disney+, but I have no issue playing Netflix Videos on Full HD downloaded from Play Store.
In case you're wondering, I installed Play Store with an APK downloaded from APK Mirror and it seems to work out of the box.
The only thing i didn't like about the tablet is it disables notification for each app by default and set battery optimization option on by default on newly installed app which could affect some things like notifications. Other than that, this tablet is a satisfying multimedia powerhouse
Edit: Also i set Dolby option to "Movie" and it sounds wonderful.
Well this is promising. Is yours the 2021 version? Did you update any software and just use out of the box?
Does it have widevine 1? I've seen reports of it dropping back to 3?
I guess you have to have the ultra subscription (which you may not have) but did you notice if Netflix offers Dolby Vision?
I'll be steaming most my content via plex so as long as that works well I guess it won't be a total loss if Disney+ and Prime aren't in FHD HDR.
I have Plex, Tubi, Locast, Peacock and Kodi on mine and no issues with any of them. This is the best tablet I have ever owned. Even Starmaker (Karaoke app) works well with Bluetooth headset.
Great news. Mine arrives next week I'll report back.
Looking forward on catching up on some of the latest series from the comfort of my bed!!
Also going to give moonlight a go to try and game stream my pc from downstairs.
I've got mesh WiFi-6 so hopefully it'll work well.
Hi!!!
i have an issue. i got on a spending spree and ordered the tablet. first of all it is not as bright as i expected and i paid lot for it (due to VAT) i have GOOGLE PLAY
but here is my problem?
how to check for HDR?
NETFLIX doesn't support HDR for this tablet (only for p11 pro...)
should i get prime video?
do you have HDR?
If you updated via the update when you first boot you've lost widevine 1. Download DRM off the play store and it'll tell you your current level (it's 1 out of the box).
Out the box the tablet does FHD on Netflix with no HDR as you say. Prime video is SD and a waste of time.
Just got to hope for an international ROM or else you've got a great tablet which is limited by its software.
I'm doing everything via plex and its working well.

I'm sort of in the same boat. If you're just using it for media the P11 Pro has the better software.
However if we get a proper international release and firmware it'll be worth it still.
The P12 Pro talk at the moment referees to a Snapdragon 888 processor so I'm not holding my breath.
I'm lucky really despite having amazon prime, disney+ and Netflix subs I'm having to torrent the Dolby Vision versions of the stuff I want to watch to my plex. It's a ball ache having to do it, but at least I've not wasted my money.

i expected at least better brightness.
if i had gotten the p11 pro i would have saved 200 euros........... + vat
I must have got lucky as I didn't have to pay any import charges so it cost me £350 delivered which is a very good price for the hardware.
Shame there's not a bigger scene on here supporting custom roms etc.

Where did you get it from? Mine was from Giztop but I paid for express shipping.
I also bought mine from Giztop, £435 delivered, including the keyboard case.. pretty good deal if you ask me.
Havent updated base firmware to avoid losing the widevine L1 as everyone is referencing.. but am also hoping we eventually get a global rom for it.
I've done more digging on this. I've updated and still have widevine level 1.
Pretty happy with it overall. One stuck pixel though
If an international rom doesn't come out I'm possibly going to pick up an S7+ second hand when their new one launches.
so you could order this with international rom?

Yeah that's the 2020 version. We're talking about the 2021 version which does not have an international version.
Can someone please help clarify if the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G(Indian variant) supports playing videos of higher resolution in YouTube or natively using VLC/MX player.
I read in one XDA thread and an YouTube video that it does not.
So wanted to know if using MIUI EU Rom or some alternate ways if this is achievable.
Note: Currently I am planning to buy this device for mostly daily usage like web surfing, watching YouTube/downloaded videos, streaming games from desktop etc. Else I would wait for Redmi K50i.
This device cannot play anything above 1080p. As long as whatever content is at that or below you'll be fine. If its above it or even HDR you cannot. Its one of the main criticisms I have of this thing.
