On the Go mode is not a feature implementedin Android N,it is an "ancient feature".
On the Go mode enables the camera feed and underlays it on screen.
it will now seem as if your phone screen is almost invisible, helps when your walking in a park at night anf you dont have to move your phone in couple of steps

GPS Navigation. HD2 in car - Landscape or Portrait position?

Hello,
Just a poll to know, while driving and using GPS navigation software do you use your HD2(and other 2-way capable devices) in landscape or portrait position?
I'm using Landscape but my screen keeps turning off automatically after a while running the GPS with iGO8.
Anyway to disable this auto shutoff while GPS is running?
Landscape, as Navigon Mobile only displays the advanced route information in Landscape mode (pictures of exits).
I'm using landscape mode with CoPilot Live. Works beautifully!
Portrait
I want to know where I am going, not what is around!!!!

somewhere in the settings choose any other option besides DEVICE SETTINGS
this applies also for screen orientation
FLAME ON!!!
I can't wait till the flaming starts over this. It'll be great sitting back and watching people slating each other over the orientation of their device. I wonder how iPhones will be brought into this discussion though?

By merely mentioning them perhaps?
landscape with TomTom 7 here, works fine
Well, I use iGO8 in portrait and 3D view because you can see the road a bit further ahead. I think I should get used to landscape
Portrait!
This is one of the most odd phenomenons in the world: why do manufaturers make gps in landscape mode?? It is only topped by one oddity: why does the customers accept a nobrainer as landscape mode for gps navigation?
You are moving forward and is probably more interested in what lies ahead then what happens a kilometer to each side? It is an artisfact of the all-ruling marketing "logic". It looks hip resembling a cinema movie ... so it must be right says the marketing "logic".
My first gps unit only had forced landscape and it showed a broad info band at the bottom and a broad info band at the top, leaving only 60% of the already small forward area for the actual purpose of showing the road. Jesus Christ, how dumb can it get!!?!
I must quote John Cleese: "marketing people! <spitting noise>"
I have an HTC Desire and is thrilled about Google Maps in portrait mode. I am checking out the Garmin 3790 with natural portrait mode!

Camera with zoom

Hi All,
Are there any cameras around that will allow you to zoom. It does not look like the stock one has that ability. Same thing for video.
Also, anyone have a good way to clean this damn screen? Its a real fingerprint magnet! LOL

Hey mobi, I think it's something that just has to be switched on, because on my stock ROM I have zoom on both the camera and the video camera. It's not great, but it's there, it appears when you hit the little slider icon right under the shutter button.
It's possible that I have it available (where you don't) because I've activated all the "extra" camera and video modes with BsB Tweaks, and I guess the zoom is apparently one of them. I thought it was there all along, but if you don't see it on your stock ROM, then that's probably how you can turn it on
Thanks for the info. I do have it I guess I just needed to look harder. Seems like there are a lot of hidden things on here.
I was looking through the manual on the HTC site the other day and even some of the settings that they were talking about were not on there.
An example would be the conference call feature, the landscape mode (which I've somewhat fixed with the landscape cab except even in landscape I have to flick up and down and not left to right on images, etc) and a few others.
Oh well, it’s a learning experience. Just wish they'd enable everything and let us decide what to leave on or turn off.

I think there's a lot of people here who would agree with that sentiment
However, there's probably exactly the same number of people here who would say, "Just wish they would disable everything and let us decide what to turn on or leave off" LOL

Always use GPS Photo (camera mode)

Hey guys, I've searched around but didn't find anything useful.
I'm trying to figure out a way to always have the camera in GPS Photo mode. For obvious reasons that I want to geotag all the picture that I take in the camera...kinda like the iPhone and many Android phones. In those phones, there's an easy way to just enable or disable geotagging.
Any ideas??

Hmmm...once I put the camera in GPS mode, it stays there until I manually change it, even through closing the camera and reopening it, and through soft-resets too.
See that's exactly what I want but it keeps switching to normal mode. btw I'm using EnergyROM 23569 Cookie - May, 28th release, if that helps any.

rvashi, what method are you using to put the camera in gps mode...are you doing it through the footprints tab? If so, there's actually a tweak to unlock that directly in the camera's settings, that's how I turn on geotagging.

I start Camera and then select the GPS Photo mode from the settings button at the bottom. I think that's the same way you are doing it. But mine is not sticking to GPS Photo mode for some very odd reason.

I did try gcam... it starts but potrait mode crashes... hdr+ might work fine... i never clicked a pic, cz i am not very image friendly! however, the mode can be switched on..
I installed linage 15.1, 64 bit, android 8.1 and tried nearly all cameras but all camera are crashing.
I think it's due to the ROMs not supporting stock camera app. So no portrait mode for us!

I tried several ports. While the mode can be switched on, taking a photo doesn't process HDR+ and the outcome of the image is either green (Every second picture taken is green) or is a normal SDR picture.

I've tried both AICP and Pixel and couldn't get working portrait mode..
Using 32bits ROM will NEVER make us possible to use portrait mode. On other chance, using 64bits Rom there is a CHANCE it'll work in the future.

I'm going back to InvictaOS. Oreos ROM aren't optimized yet. Give it a month
Just for information:
The portrait mode is just a software feature that makes the background blurry. So take a picture and use any photo editor out there and make a mask with blurry background for example. Or use photo apps that can make this.
Phones without telephoto lens or without an big sensor won't be capable of making this without software tricks. And even then you need some distance between the object and background to get blurry background. That's called a low depth of field.
Anyone got it working?

...Look at the previous replies holy crap.
have patience! remember we still have only stock nougat so oreo ROMs are going to be buggy... 64 bit ROMs will go better... and will be useful ones they are stable.. i did notice that they are more fluid than others...but that's just my observation or my way to use it.
There will be more things that you might come across...ones things are good
You can also use normal Gcam with lens blur feature... it does the same thing and is very stable. The portrait mode was in pixel given the fact its camera has wide aperture and hence the portrait mode is effect is created. hence its price!

if you really want to take good pictures! use Invicta OS hal3 version and the stock moto camera app.. it does great job!
