Question Instagram/Social Media Optimization - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Has anyone been able to test this yet? Do instagram stories and pictures still look bad when using this Samsung device. I know there were ramblings about social media app optimization for the camera but it has really died down recently. Anyone have input on this or tried out the phone with Instagram Tik tok and twitter.? Thanks in advance!

I want to know this too. I have seen some obscure videos on YT showing this, but i don't trust them.. I remember on my Huawei P20 pro snapchat activated the different zoom-cameras/lenses while zooming.. I've missed it since..

What I would like to know is if it comes preloaded with all of the Farcebook suite of apps? This is the most annoying part of owning a Samsung device.

Tl;dw: Instagram can use the ultra wide and 3x telephoto, snapshat supports all 4 lenses and night mode as well. finally up to bar. iphone has better video on snapchat due to being smoother

Question: Snapchat & General Performance issues

Is anyone else having problems with the performance in Snapchat & Instagram?
Especially the camera / zoom is literally unusable due to lag.
Also heavy lag occures in Instagram (swipe right/left animation)
Huawei's own gallery app also feels very very clunky!!
I know some apps are not optimized properly, especially Snapchat, but I switched from my S7 and I never had these problems. Like I said the zoom feature in Snapchat and Instagram is literally broken.
I did not do a factory reset yet because I wanted to know if there are other people who experienced this.

Yeah Snapchat is a total piece of garbage. On Instagram occasional stutters IIRC.

This is seriously Crazy by Vivo!!!

Okay this had to be the title for the thread as what i discovered about NEX is seriously crazy.
What i discovered is, that NEX's display can render much better colours both while watching videos and browsing images, but the built AI **** is decreasing the quality of the display by reducing the saturation and a bit of sharpness.
How i discovered this: While i was browsing some 2K videos on NEX youtube app, i watched on video which is a 2K HDR 10 video and it looked completely off on the NEX display. It looked completely greyed out and horribly pale and i right away knew that the built in AI is doing something wrong. So, to further confirm this, i downloaded this app called NewPipe, which streams youtube videos and i saw that the same video which was looking horrible on the stock youtube app is looking really nice on this app. In fact the colours were looking as good as it looked on my Note 8. I was super surprised for a moment as i never thought NEX's display is capable of matching the Note 8's display in terms of colours and sharpness. So, once i was sure that its the AI thats decreasing the saturation of the display while we watch any content using the stock app, i downloaded a Gallery app from play store to check if its doing the same thing to the pictures too and as it turned out, the colours of the same image looked so much more better on that third party gallery app than it did in the stock gallery app.
So, now what i really want to know is, how to switch this AI thing off. If not completely, i want to at least disable it while watching videos and browsing images. I seriously dont know why has Vivo done this, as it is not doing any good to the display. In fact its bringing down the actual performance of the display which would have affected their sales over all. I am sure there would have been people comparing the Note 8 or S9's display to NEX and would have changed their decision based on it and one famous reviewer has compared it against the S9 plus and he clearly says the NEX's display cant match to the S9's, which is not at all the case.
I am super sensitive about colours and i really really happy that NEX can deliver colours as good as my Note 8, which was my only complain. While i am super happy after discovering this, i am equally restless to figure out a way to disable that AI thing on certain apps. You guys too can do this test and see the results for yourself. Let me know if anyone of you can find a solution for this.
Also, attaching comparison pictures of the display colours while using the stock gallery app against using a third party app.

I too noticed this while putting wallpapers on mobile.
From 1st day I am using Google's gallery app i.e. Photos , while pictures looked brilliant in the app but whenever I set a picture as wallpaper , it looks dull.
Second time I noticed it when I saw Avengers on MX player, colors looked bright and punchy where as it's trailer on YouTube looked very dull in comparison.
Exactly!! Hope someone can find a solution for this. Such a shame they are restricting what this phone can deliver.

HOLLY CRAP!!! I looked at your pictures but really couldn't see it. I then did same test you did and I'm Blown Away. This is horrible. See the attached examples. We need to chase support on this one for sure. For reference..I used the YouTube app vs new pipe app. U also checked the stock photo gallery versus a replacement photo gallery and you can also see the difference there ....see the last pic

I did and the colors look much better on the Note 8 and I am sure that the colours on the NEX can also look equally better provided someone finds out a way to turn of the AI thing.
I wish I can unsee it
If you want to really hate the AI, access YouTube in your mobile browser and then switch to request the desktop version. Then set it to a high resolution and look at the stunning quality.
I now seriously hate this AI!
Also just validated ..this is happening with the official and vanced versions of the YouTube app.
Tested:
- I installed older official YouTube apps - same issue
- I installed a few third party YouTube apps - all had beautiful color saturation
Jesus!!
What a mess.
Good that i'm always uninstalling all stock app and replaced them with third party for example for gallery i'm using Google Photo or Quick Pic with all my smartphone.
But must be some kind of spesific services related to AI that should remove via ADB that would be the best solution.
Anyone contact ViVo about this problem ?

I will be tomorrow with the photos and this forum presented as exhibits. I have been talking to vivo support on an off for the past week, so I suspect it will at least get logged.
I see the same problem. I used ES Explorer and default album with multitask to compare side by side. Really strange ...
I always use the QuickPic Since I got the device , However noticed the Bad quality with YouTube when I attempted to test a Video Playback . Mx player has better performance.
Lets Push Vivo Team to Correct this , There is a separate thread on XDA requesting them to release the source code.
Once they release the Source , I guess these problems will be Easily resolved.
Regards,
H
Also, you guys can use a third party app to set the wallpapers for both desktop and lock screen. It looks so much better when you do that. And if we should reach to Vivo on this. It's shame that their team has not checked on this, which is such a major thing.
Youtube and Youtube Vanced apps are playing video in 1080p HDR / 4KHDR mode , NewPipe is playing video in 1080p/4K Normal mode. you can check in video stream selection settings.

That's interesting. But where do you find those settings? On the youtube app or under phone settings?

Don't take the photo on the Instagram app. Take the photo or video with OnePlus camera app. After that, open Instagram and tap on the "+" icon from the bottom middle of the screen, choose the photo or the video that you want to share.
My Instagram photos and videos are fine and I don't see anything of what you say. I'm running Oxygen OS Open Beta 3 on my OnePlus 6
Yes I have done this for some time, since 8.1, now with the beta 1 foot, the picture always comes with the deformations and the video with poor quality when exporting to the story, I researched google and the staff already complain a lot of this incompatibility in the oneplus official forum
That's true iam facing this problem. You found any solution?? Please share here

Live photo option for Pixel 3? In dire need!!! Please help! with sound!

Hi,
First off just want to say I am a long time XDA fan from way back to windows mobile and I am in a bit of a crisis state currently. I have always been anti apple and drank the android phone coolaid forever but I am struggling currently because I have a very strong desire for the live photo feature. (Video before and after every picture I take WITH audio) I know the pixels have motion photo and all that but without sound it is so much less. I have found that camera MX supports this but google photos doesn't detect the live photo aspect of the picture to upload it.
Everyone around me thinks I am going crazy causing I am thinking of putting up with all the things I hate about apple just for the live photo feature. The camera is my number one used item on the phone so that is why I would think of switching. I am a Dad of 3 and love these short videos and take way to may pictures.
Is anyone aware of a way to get google photos to detect camera MX's live shots? Or get audio on google motion photos? Or some other app that can do this?
Not sure if this is posted in the right spot so mods please move if needed...

When I shoot video the audio is always out of sync Doogee S96 Android 10

Hi guys as the title says. Tried different camera app and settings, the same. Sent a captured video to a friend and it's out of sync for them too. I can play other videos fine eg YouTube.
I am abroad and the inability to shoot video on a brand new quad camera phone is driving me crazy! Please help!
Also push notifications stop after about half an hour of using the particular App eg my home motion CCTV. Not sure if this is related but it's also a nightmare.
Thoughts appreciated,
Greg
