Request to any P40 owner - Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers

There was an option in camera app on my previous Samsung Galaxy S8+, and it appears it's an option with Huawei's Mate 20 series, that allows the camera to only record slow-mo video when motion is detected.
However, this 'only record when motion detected' slow-mo option is missing on my P30 Pro.
Can anyone with a P40-series phone let me know if Huawei put it back in?
EDIT: Never mind. Turns out the option appears when you select 960 fps. Here's what I captured:

Yes its back..

Thank you, very much.
How frustrating.
Could you possibly do me a favor and let me know the version of the camera app you have?
That way, I can try to find an APK to sideload.

Interesting.
Latest for my P30 Pro is 10.0.1.348.

Huawei released update today including golden snap to the camera. Don't know what it is yet.

Global or Chinese? Which Version?

I'm in the UK with p40pro so must be global. Just do a system software update to 10.1.0.114

Never mind - Turns out the option appears when you select 960 fps.
Here's what I captured:

Not sure if I'm finding the correct setting. But on my p40pro the option to record slow ow on on motion dection works on all fps options but you have to set the area where it my detect motion.

Off the topic query but how are you finding the p40pro till now in terms of camera and the software experience? ..i have ordered one here in UK and will probably get it in a couple of days

First off it it's a beautiful device and feels great in the hand. It's one of those devices that you find satisfying to touch.
The camera is excellent exactly how I expected it to be after owning a mate 20 Pro a last year, and that device ruined my experience of owning a note 10 plus as the camera on the note just couldn't compare.
Software is good although EMUI is one of my favourite android skins anyway. I find it pretty easy to live without gms as I don't really do social media or anything.
It is easy to put gms on this device although I took it off just to run a stock phone as stock. Due to the fact the only things I wanted from gms (Google pay and music) won't work anyway.
Main gripe with this phone is no gpay or banking apps. Hopefully Huawei can sort this soon. Oh and no stereo speaker or dolby atmos.
Now I need to decide whether to switch from my note 10 plus to this or not?

Thanks a lot..i had the note 10plus and i agree its a beautiful device though camera might be a level below p40pro. So its a tough decision.
I hv a iphone11 pro max and will probably use p40pro as a secondary phone mainly due to its camera

Yeah the note Is a good phone but Samsung ruined the note with a software update that made the camera blurry and the Bluetooth streaming skip on music play back. And seems as though I take 100+ inspection photos daily for work it's very annoying.
I just can't get on with Samsung ui either it's too much.
The thought of not being fully tracked by Google is quite refreshing as well.
It is weird how nice this phone feels... I find even if I'm not using it I just rotate it in the hand whilst watching TV odd.

Question before buying Mate 8

i really want to buy mate 8 and i love it but i'm afraid from one thing i'm a user that root his phone and use xposed and flash roms
my question is rooting and xposed will work on this phone without problems?
and i think for mate 8 there is no number of custom roms
it is nornal that the phone is new but my question is like after 2 years when the phone stop to recieve update it will be a custom rom for it ? like Cyanogen?
Root yes ,xposed not working, stock ROM is very good with Google now launcher
I don't believe that CM is making ROMs for Mate 8
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-L29 using Tapatalk
Root works, xposed works, no cm ROM in sight but delete a bunch of bloat apps, replace them with Google apps instead, and use layers manager along with theme app for a very close to aosp ROM feel
Have to say, was very anxious to find out how Emui would be in practice. If it would be bloated, ugly, overkill, etc.
But now, after using the device for a few days, can honestly say that I wouldn't want it to be any other way! The amount of things you can change, set or extract techy data from is enormous. Don't want stock Android anymore. Don't want CM13. This is it. Emui rulez! :good:
It's fast, smooth, does it all. No regrets. Can't / won't downgrade to stock/ AOSP / CM

Mine doesn't even get warm. There are no dots on the screen either. Having a large battery makes it charge a little slower but mine charges fast if I use the original ac adapter and cable.
hi. i read about camera app taking forever to launch. any similar experience? does using another camera app solve the problem?. also how good is the loadspeaker? im coming from s5>nexus6>note edge and they all have pretty loud sound
Hello everybody, I was wondering if someone could tell me the best mate8 model to buy I will be using it in the usa. I'm using the mate2 now and it is a solid mid-ranger. I have unlocked the bootloader and have cm13 running on it now. I would appreciate your suggestions on the mate8 models and why you pick it. Thanks..
I'm interested in buying a Mate 8 and I was wondering if you can shoot RAW pictures using the Mate 8?
I know that it has a "Pro Mode" option but I can't find any videos online showing a full indept review of that feature, so could anyone explain/elaborate on that?
Many thanks in advance!

Most Raw-capable camera apps you can download from the Play Store won't work as well due to crap implementation on Huawei's side:
Shame, really.

If you wish to buy a Huawei phone and need RAW image files, you have to wait for the release of P9 (April 16th) or P9 Plus (May 20th) that both offer this functionality.
Thank you guys for the reply.
That's really sad to hear then. My LG G4 recently died on me with the infamous boot loop problem and I can't get it fixed anytime soon. I might wait for reviews of the new P9 but I do like the Mate 8 as well though. I'd just have to sacrifice RAW function then =/

It's not only a matter of RAW vs non-RAW... P9/P9 Plus dual camera has been yet tested by some reviewers and defined a significant step forward compared to Mate 8 (but still worse than Samsung S7).

You are right, there's more to it than just RAW, but having RAW function is usually beneficial as you can process the picture later and not rely solely on the phone's image processor. Although if the phone's image processor is good to begin with then you shouldn't need RAW.
My G4 had RAW and I quite liked it, managed to get some good shots during my holiday before it died on me(luckily it died after my vacation was over, lol).

Not very good, no. Yes, lots of options but don't buy this phone for the camera. Much, much better alternatives (like your G4).

Issues with Google cardboard?

I just bought a Google cardboard vr headset and the honor 8 doesn't seem to work with it. It happens in the YouTube 360 videos too, when you try to set it to cardboard.
Does anyone else have this problem? I'm on the nougat beta, 320.
Thanks!
What kind of problem to you have ? I have the xiaomi vr headset and I can watch 360 YT videos without any problem.

I went to the nougat beta right when i got the phone so didn't check it on marshmallow.
The two video screens keep on jittering/shaking very fast like the calibration for gyroscope is off.
Thanks for the help! So it's either my phone or an issue with the beta update then!

It's probably a problem with the Nougat Beta, as it's not a fully working model. I'd recommend reverting back to Marshmallow and your device should work with Google Cardboard again.

I'm still having this same problem on official nougat after a factory reset. Didn't have it on marshmallow.
I think some P9 owners are having the same issue.

Yes there is is problem with some of the phones. They seem to have got crappy circuts. Almost no VR app is working with my phone, and when you call support, they say we cannot take responsibility for one app. That is Google cardboard. And all of the thousands of apps that are in the. This is not a great support, in fact no support at all. My next phone will be a Samsung, they all work with cardboard. This one does not.

Snapchat

Hello
Is there no one who can optimize Snapchat for our Honor 8? The H8 has a great camera and it's sad to see Snapchat not getting everything out of it. Is there any developer here who can do something about it? I know my best option would be contacting Snapchat but I doubt they will do something about it.
Wrong section. Post your question in Q&A. Thanks.

According to Snapchat their app has issues on the Android platform itself. Snapchat is planning to rewrite the Android app for the platform. This is what happens when you're not OS agnostic.
Currently, I doubt anything can be done about it since Snapchat is a closed source app. Unless, of course, some of the Jedi hackers on XDA are able to optimize it with the power of The Force.

Snapchat is rubbish anyway.
The thing is on Android because of the different kinds of hardware snapchat uses this bizzare way of optimising per device. It limits the resolution of the video or photo taken to the resolution of the screen. So for instance even if I had a high end phone with the best camera but with a 720 or 1080p display and my friend has a mid range phone with a 1440p display he'll definitely have great quality. The Honor 8 usually takes photos at a much higher resolution and snapchat just doesn't let it do so.
Sent from my Honor 8 using XDA Labs
Some Samsung are making good photos even with Snapchat on zoom per example but with my Honor 8 if I zoom something it sucks
I don't use SnapChat, but everything I've heard about it indicates the programmers of the Android version were lazy and just take screenshots while the camera is on instead of actually using the camera to take the picture. That's why the resolution sucks and you get such poor quality when you zoom in. It is not a full resolution picture.
However, the weird spinning issue you have is likely due to the Honor 8's jacked up gyroscope. We can't use VR apps because of it. It seems to affect 100% of Honor 8's yet no update is coming to fix it. Not a high enough priority, I guess.
I read that Snapchat is going to rewrite the app from scratch on Android is this true? And when it will come out?

Yeah the app is pretty poorly developt for such a big company. But the 3D figures work perfectly on the honor 9 of my friend so i think it might have something to do with the messed up gyroscope of the honor 8. I hope honor will fix this in Android oreo but i dont expect it to happen. Sadly.

Can confirm working on s9+
Only problems I've had is Bluetooth car phone calls apparently sound like garbage to the other person and when the phone call ends it doesn't tell my car it's ended and when it resumes music it sounds like someone putting sound dampening material on my speakers. I have to turn my Bluetooth off and on again and it's fixed.
Also popup view isn't working correctly. The X at the top where you can drag the popup to dismiss it won't leave until you stop the process which is just a quick restart for me.
The original post says dual cameras isn't working yet but it does for me. I have normal and telephoto buttons in the camera app.
WiFi calling also doesn't work. Nor does device care.
I also feel like my Sprint LTE slowed quite a bit. Nothing loads nearly as fast on data.

Well it's not really sold for 1000 ... It's about 700 on Amazon. I bought mine for 600... In a year's time it will go for 500...refurbished 400 yet I don't think any X's will sell under a 1000....
still s9+ is not to be played with unstable Android from xda... It never will work as factory intended...
Anyone wanna play with Android's, buy xiaomi or oppo...
Anyhow, if u hold s9+ in hand vs xs, iPhone easily satisfy double the worth....
As I mentioned I feel hugely let down by Samsung's camera no matter what anyone reviewer say... Android is for geeks, iPhone is for people who want a dependable credible high a quality phone that no Android touches.... End of story

Go to Netflix click on account it will take you to browser and your account, go to playback settings and select high , now swipe Netflix away and restart it turn brightness up at least 75% choose a hdr film it does take a few seconds for the quality to render up ,, best over wifi i have found for testing,,,,, some films look amazing some don't look as good in parts but it's deffo hdr.... You can always switch on your network speed in the icon bar to show how much data it's downloading ,, it's more data for hdr .. Here's apic of settings
Its not really a Mod Version -_- Just the first 5.X Version that had HDR Support.
The newest Version from the Store shows only HD, but I Compared them and all tough it doesn't say HDR it seems to be HDR.
Im sure an Netflix Update will come and it will show it properly. I also got the EVR-AL00 8/256 and received the HuaweiUpdate.

Yes, I could still click the button on the right to change the zooms. Also it's very easy to change the zoom by slide-up or slide-down anywhere in the camera screen.
