The Official Samsung Galaxy S10 Family Thread

Now that I would be delighted with, no change here unfortunately from my three and a half hours so far.

Just to touch on the whole camera debate again.

I recently came across a telegram group that had a Gcam for Exynos which works. (front doesn't unless rooted)

The difference between the shots is night and day. The Samsung oversaturated the shot massively. It wasn't something I was properly aware of really and it's not until you see them side by side that you realise how meh the camera is on the 10. (or should I say the processing!)

Same with night shots or low light shots. The stock camera is just abysmal!

Stock camera is great. Software updates have massively improved it over time too.

No need for Gcam nowadays imo.

neoboy · 28 Dec 2019 at 14:58

Processing on the Pixel is different so it depending on your taste one could be seen better than the other.

Any links to it? Wouldn't mind trying it for comparison.

All the gcam ports I've tried I've always gone back to Samsung.

neoboy · 28 Dec 2019 at 21:57

Pffft, what do you know about photography

Except the colours are way off.

I recommend using the N10z4 config.

Samsung phones take oversaturated shots, with evidence suggesting this is a deliberate decision by Samsung.

Many people are drawn towards vibrant photos and prefer them to images which might be closer to real life.

Basically, this is why in most cases I turn optimiser off.

Scene optimiser still over saturates though. On or off doesn't really make a difference

neoboy · 29 Dec 2019 at 21:33

In certain scenarios turning it off makes a huge difference, particularly with anything involving lakes and such. Blues just get badly oversaturated, also sunsets and sunrises suffer badly with it on.

One downside to Android 10 which I should have probably checked is that they have gimped clipboard sharing so alt+c now no longer works from phone -> PC

kefan77 · 30 Dec 2019 at 12:23

Android 10 update totally broke my S10, random screen shut offs, touch screen not responding, system apps constant crashing. Had to do complete reset.
Didn't have to do that for past 2 gens of Galaxy phones. Now all working fine, but not cool at all.

stoosh · 30 Dec 2019 at 15:30

Heads up for those with Snapdragon 855 HK sourced devices. Android 10 is now available to download

BananaDunka · 31 Dec 2019 at 12:26

Yup got mine the other day and is a nice update. I like that screenshotting now and then going to crop snaps the crop borders to the context of the image like messages, image borders, window edges etc. It's rather smart.

BananaDunka · 2 Jan 2020 at 07:51

I've had 10 now for a couple of days and observed only a few bugs which are solely related to the task switcher screen.

1: When clicking the app switcher button, if you scroll the apps and tap on one when it's in the middle, there is a notable delay before it comes into the foreground. This delay could be 3 seconds or 2, doesn't seem to be s set delay period, just that it's not instant which it is every other time.

2: If you do the above but instead of tapping to bring the app to foreground, swipe it down which also works. Sometimes when doing this the app will get stuck mid move to FG and the app's icon is stuck top centre of the screen. You have to swipe it down again so it pins to the screen correctly.
Both of these are random.

Report it in the members app within 15 minutes of it happening (For the logs)

They've been quite proactive in looking into issues I've had!

BananaDunka · 3 Jan 2020 at 08:37

Forgot about that!

Just replicated the problem and sent feedback!

BananaDunka · 3 Jan 2020 at 22:03

Apparently it's because I'm using a third party launcher. Google have locked down task switching sources to system level launchers only so this is something Google will have to open up it seems.

Bummer.

As for 10's battery life on Snapdragon, seems decent. Was on 4G+ the whole day until 9PM when I got home.
