Hi All,
i found solution for unlimited recording on android device, it has pros and cons so hopefully some programmer will come and modify the buildin camera apk.
here are solutions they are working perfects but the problem is the quality is no where close to the buildin cam apk.
1. lgCamera
2. Snap Camera HDR
3. moto x camera apk its free and in my opinion its quality better than the other 2.
so the problem of limited recording is not due to format fat32, because htc on buildin cam apk record 30 minutes and stops and its size is 4gb, but i have tried lgcamera was recording over an hours and its size was 5.7gb.
i do not keep it long, i hope some programmer modify htc one cam apk to record unlimit or auto splitted to 30 minutes duration, also modify its zoom default to the value of 50% because htc one cam is way zoomed out.
so if any genius person modify the camera apk then it will be best solution, it just need to override the default camera apk setting when some one modifying its camera apk.
some time when we have party i do not like to go and modify zoom setting and start record again every half an hour.
Thanks for any programmer who modify this and good luck with the rest for temporary solution.
Hi,
snap camera records 30fps with 20mbit in low light, but the result is darker then htc stock camera.

I could be off here, but since you said recording stops at 30 minutes, I think I have a solution:
In /system/etc/media_profiles.xml, there is a "duration=" setting for each encoder profile. This can be set to either 30 or 60, and currently all profiles except qvga are set to 30. You may be able to set this to 60 and be able to record up to 60 minutes. Report back.

You do realise that routinely changing the zoom is a terrible idea on the One?
It's a digital zoom, not an optical one, so all you are doing by zooming in is losing pixels - this is fine if you are shooting something and wish to zoom in for effect, but as a general rule if you want to get the best quality out of the camera, you should leave zoom well alone. This is especially true of the One as it doesn't have that many pixels to play with in the first place.

hello homeslice976
Thank you very much for the information you have provided. i have uploaded 2 screen shots of the xml file you have stated and also uploaded 2 xml file which are original xml file on my htc device, but i think the device must be rooted to replace those xml files? am i wrong?
if i need to root my device then i will try to do it later today as my connection is very slow right now.

Thank you Dave,
i will test to video one with zoomin at let say 40% and other will let zoom alone but i will crop the video to equivalent of 40% zoomin video, i will compare the 2 side by side and will report back the result.

yes you'll need to be rooted. you don't need to do anything with media_codecs.xml. Just media_profiles.xml.

zoomin htc one
hello Dave,
i have tested the video, i captured 2 video phone was at stable position, one without touching zoom and the other shoot was zoomed about 60%
then i cropped the one with 0 zoom to the same frame as the one with 60% zoom.
the result is as follows:
after cropping the video file from 1920 x 1080 became 775 x 425 well if i keep this size the file remain same quality but when i cropped back to
1920 x 1080 the quality is blury and no where near the original or the video was shooted with 60% zoomin.
so i believe the zoomin in htc one does not effect its quality as long as you are not zoomed extreme.
when you crop video and resized you will lose quality the same as zoomin, but all camcorders allow certain zoom without affecting quality, so i believe htc one zoomin is the same, but some video camera have advanced zoomin to go beyond limited for instance 72x advanced zoomin and the normal zoomin is 20x, so if you go beyond 20 you still zoomin further but you will lose quality and shaky footage.so the safe is to stay with 20x range.
all edited with after effects and even i did not export the out put, but after editing them compared them side by side, it is like day and night the quality differences between the 2 videos.
thank you though for information, i will try first to root my device and see if i can go beyond the limited recording.

hello again
i have changed those number to 60
i started from
<!ATTLIST EncoderProfile duration (60|60) #REQUIRED>
and each
<EncoderProfile quality="cif" fileFormat="mp4" duration="60">
so as you see all are in 60 minutes but no luck sofar i tried twice
1st record 25:39
2nd attempt records 26:04
both size are 3.79 gb in size
now i started recording again to see what is the the outcome if it is the same then i have to try to changed back to 30 at least its 30minutes, so i think it is the size limit thing
update: it is size limit issue, i checked again it says video size limit is reached.
i think it is be useful if some one try to write a code to state when ever the video reach limited time then start again automatically.
but thanks for the advice, i will let you know if i come with better solution..
thank you.

zindu

Sorry - that was just a theory anyway. I'll keep looking around for something else that might be limiting the file size.

Hi guys, this seems to be the only real discussion on this issue going on at all.
Has anyone been able to find a way around this limitation?
the problem is there are many know how to solved but they do not shared with us.
only who does not know and they spread a word over the net and same crap like, it is due to format type, let me tell you i have solved mine on htc one no problem what so ever until i stopped manually.
i am not a programmer but currently when i have time i try to learn java then i will after that develop simple app and progressing from there and will help the community but that take up to 1 to 2 years.
any way how i solved mine? i do not know my self but i did 2 things will shared with all of you.
1. i rooted my htc one device, there is plenty guide on this forum.
2. i decompile my camera apk and i change a picture and i can not remember if i mess little with codes or not but i doubt i did, so i deleted the original camera apk and replaced with my modification.
i will be glad to share my camera apk with you if you think it might be due to this modifications, i tell you what? i never update the system software now, because i am afraid i will lose the unlimited recording, so it works for me but i do not know how, but in future when i understand java programming i will help every one in this community.

Zindu, thank you so much for sharing.
I emailed Google about this here is the response I got:
"Thank you for contacting Google. I appreciate your patience with me as I look into this issue. It seems as though the limit placed on the video data file of 2gb is written into the android operating system. This is in effect on all types of android devices.
I have researched a few video control apps, they follow the same rule and stop at 1.9-2gb. At this time I do not believe there is a work around for this issue. I do not have software update information available either. Some of the research I have done points to a possible legislative law that limits the video recording time of mobile devices as it takes away from video recorders."
pal first thing you do undock the cam apk from the bar dock on your phone, see if it is working, what i mean by the dock is the bar on your phone on the bottom which have space for 4 or 5 applications, so undock cam apk from this dock and used on the main windows view.
if that does not work root ur phone and undock cam apk from dock bar.
if both does not work then if you have htc one i will upload my cam apk so you can install it on urs.
mine was limited to 4gb now its unlimited in size and durations, a programmer can develop application to over ride the camera system settings, so if i learn java in future my first apk will be try to over ride system setting.

I have a Nexus 5. My camera app is not docked. What should I do next?
if its not docked then rooted anyway see if it works?
what i did i undocked, rooted, modified a pick and some codes in xml file, and it works for me so i do not know which step caused the fix, but you need to root your device if you want to replace system application on your phone.
try to root your device first and try to modify xml file see if it works, if it was htc one i could help because i can upload xml and apk file.
that is all i know for now hope someone who have better knowledges to help you out but i hope i learn java within a year or too then i be able to fix this issue.

So far this has been the most insightful information. Still, no idea how to overcome something this stupid.

Ikr, it is pretty ridiculous. Zindu is right though, it's simple enough but the people who can figure it out don't care. Most people just don't seem to need their phone for our purpose.
My workaround has been SVR Pro:
-Upsides -It will record in fragments until your storage is full.
-You can use your device while recording
-You can record with the screen turned off !! which is epic for battery life!
-Downside -you loose like a second of video between the fragments

I was just browsing other Kirin 960 forums and noticed that the apk
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8-pro/how-to/firmware-leak-t3760517
https://mega.nz/#!lapy2LxL!7DwzO1QQY7N5DSZi7l64V7efb8dy271CYx2jUWYdb4o
was not mentioned here in Honor 9.
I have just copied/overwritten the original HwCamera2 folder with the p20 one and it worked even without reboot.
New features include pro mode with a monochrome sensor and two options (90/120 fps) with slow-mo.
My device: Honor 9, emui 8 (360), rooted with patched boot Magisk
Just install the zip as a new module in Magisk, reboot and it works too, without having to manually overwrite the original HwCamera folder and files inside

Installed it with Magisk.
It replaced the original camera app for me, and rendered it unusable crashing on startup.
Promptly removed then rebooted again, it works again, but its name is now: "The front camera does not support panoramic shooting in landscape orientation."
Please without root
Would this app somehow modify it to go without root on Honor 9 with Android 8?
What are the advantages exactly related to the Honor 9 camera on latest B363?
The monochrome option already exists and I've noticed on the codec profile files that our Slow Motion option runs at 120fps on FHD and 240 on HD. So switching to 90/120 would be worse... Unless that camera app complements our options instead of replacing them.
(And by the way, B363 firmware also brings AR camera option)

Dunno. Maybe none. I have tested it on b360 without knowing the abovementioned features will ever be available in later builds. Moreover, it had appeared in other Kirin 960 forums, not here.

Do you really have 720p at 240 fps option on your Honor 9 ?
(I'm interested because I have a P10 and we only have 1080p @120fps available ...
Thanks

Slow Motion has 2 resolution options, 1024 and 720. And if you look at system related files (now i don't remember exactly which ones), you'll see that 1024p runs at 120 and 720p runs at 240.
So, you've probably seen that the S8/N8 can do 4k60 by now. But did you know, that the S7 (Exynos only) can do this too, just using a different app?
Special thanks to the people in "Note8 Exynos 4K 60FPS no root" on Telegram for helping me with this (feel free to join and ask for help there [click])
The Easy Way
Download Snap Camera HDR from the Play Store (the trial works too)
Snap Camera HDR download ($2)
Snap Camera HDR Trial (free)
Download my snap_camera.zip file from the attachments and extract it in /sdcard (Internal Storage root) [I had to do it like this because xda won't accept .bin files]
Open the app, go to the menu -> other and press "Load settings"
Start recording and enjoy
The "Harder" Way (ROOT)
Download Snap Camera HDR from the Play Store (the trial works too, just replace "snap" with "snaptrial" in the directory later)
Open the app, go to settings, enable "4K Video Support", change the video size and preview framerate to anything non-default to let it generate the settings
Use your favorite root explorer to get to /data/data/com.marginz.snap/shared_prefs
Edit the file corresponding to the profile you want to edit (P1 is com.marginz.snap_preferences_0.xml, P2 is com.marginz.snap_preferences_100.xml and so on)
Change "pref_video_preview_framerate_key" to "60000,60000" (without quotes)
Change "pref_camera_video_size_key" to a resolution higher than 3840x2160 (like 4032x2268) [if you set it to 3840x2160, you will only get 45 FPS, my theory is that it doesn't completely disable HDR if you set it to 3840x2160]
Save the file and repeat for all camera modes you want to edit
Enjoy

Thank you
Thanks, working, used the first method.
Thanks! Works for me to
It actually works. Now i'm wondering if it is possible to record 1080p at 240fps?
Does it require root or somthing like that?
Or should i ask if it would work on the galaxy Note FE on pie?
When you hand your phone to granny to take a photo of you, can she get the job done? Rate this thread to express how you deem the Realme X2's camera software. A higher rating indicates that the software is easy to use, fast, uncluttered, and inclusive of advanced features for when you need them.

Holding a RMX1991 Realme X2 8/128.
RMX1991_11_A.10 ROM
The software is nothing to shout about, it seems poorer than my RedmiNote4MTK.
Developer options cannot stay open & uninterrupted by the notification screen.
Overly aggressive power profiles.
Inconsistent - does not have scrollbar in some parts of the settings where it is needed while some parts have a row of alphabets at the LHS, while some don't.
Phone seems to "forget" power profile and permission settings.

you cant. wait for twrp and flash roms
Color os is really not that bad my x2 just arrived last night and it's the Chinese version and all i had to do is to uninstall all those apps + adb tutorial for the grayed out apps and i was set to go, there was nothing wrong with it at all + i did the latest update and all is good
The only downside so far is that you can't hide the notch in system apps like ... Youtube or Chrome. Gaming mode is better than on MIUI 10, no permanent white line on the left screen, so no burn-in risk in gaming mode.

hey , i got a solution for u , download Data eye from playstore
and make sure u have in the user u want to save data and then u can choose the apps u want to block accessing the data and it is really usefull , and another tip i have is if your using 5G then change it to 4g , and if your using 4g then change it to 3g , honestly it saves a large data and 3G is so managable if your only using social media . Because of the speed great data gets wasted
hope u liked the reply , pls like the comment and follow me

Thanks for the help for that problem
Referring to your second reply:
Sorry, what! I thought pixel experience was the cleanest rom ever. 'cause it has no bloatware at all. You even have to download the Google apps like Gmail, YouTube, Drive,etc. There are less than 15 apps pre installed and none of them is made by any other than Google. It's looks are the cleanest. The only downside is lack of customisations if you aren't rooted.
Please confirm what bloatware you are talking about. Also tell me some better ROMs for OnePlus 5 that you know. I may be a little biased to pixel.
