Hello All,
So I am running CM 7.0.3 and have the netflix app running through a friend whom gave me a special APK. When I load the application all of the pictures appear on the screen and I can load video and playback is great (even without the hardware acceleration, though the tablet gets a touch warm). The problem is the information such as names, length and short description do not appear. The application itself actually only appears in portait mode with the soft keys at the top.
I was hoping to find out if this is a restriction set by the CM system and if its modifiable. My Engadget, Joystick and a few other news apps act the same way and it would be fantastic to get it into landscape mode. I am also hoping that getting this into landscape may fix the issue with the netflix text display issues. Otherwise thankfully I can usually tell what I am watching from the picture, but I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
Anyhow, If anyone knows if there's a way to change this please let me know and I would love to try it out.
Thanks!
Miles

I've used instagram on an iPhone, a galaxy s4, note 3, and note 5, and instagram has never been as unresponsive as it has on my lg v10. The app still works on my lg as it should, but it's fluidity seems to be lacking. For example, I scroll through my feed pretty hastily, and sometimes when I double tap a photo to "like it" and scroll down to view more, it registers it as a down-stroke, and scrolls up instead. The lg v10 doesn't do this with any other app, however, and the only "touch issues" I had was on the top left portion of my screen (which was caused by Facebook's messenger app). Could this be a glitch within the instagram app? On a completely irrelevant note, I was using Google keep today and noticed that the framerate was really low. Scrolling up and down seemed very choppy as well as pulling the side menu from the left.
Anyone?

I was really happy with my LG G5, until after a week or so, I noticed that the screen actually seems to have problems with "fast" change of movement. And I am really annoyed at this point by it, because I compared it with other devices of mine, and it's not that bad on these older devices. For example my old phone, a Samsung Galaxy S3, doesn't have this issue at all.
You can easily notice it in the Android settings (use list view). When you now slowly move up/down with your finger, you see that all fonts have a "ghost-effect" (get blurry) of not properly refreshing in time. There is a bit of border / re-draw affect around each word on the screen.
You will notice it also for example on the app store scrolling down / up, or in an app drawer (if you have a launcher with app drawer) and scroll through the app list.
On my phone i have no ghosting or problems with fast change of movement. There is a website called "testufo" where you can test your display for ghosting and FPS.
Hello all,
This has been an issue since I got the pixel 6 at launch. When playing videos, the shadows appear washed out. It appears to be some sort of gamma shift or HDR tone mapping issue. This happens when in google photos, chrome browser, imgur, even other apps. (youtube is fine).
I've confirmed in person this happens to other pixels one of which was pixel 6 pro.
The issue is recorded here:
I tried changing the color setup under display options in system settings, turning off H265 in camera settings, booting into safe mode, forcing 60hz refresh rate, but it still washes out the videos.
This does not happen with videos shot by other phones, for example my wife's iPhone shot video then sent it over to me and the gamma shift does not happen...
Strange thing is, in Chrome while playing the video, as soon as I swipe up from the bottom to open the recent apps, the video jumps back to normal as seen here:

I reported this to google, and their chat support to me to fully nuke my phone to factory....
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, and could other Pixel 6 users verify it's happening on their devices as well ?
Thank you

I seldom shoot video with phones and usually don't like to reference reviews. But from what you described Dxomark's summary about video performance is looking to be spot-on.
Google Pixel 6 Camera review: An outstanding performer in its segment - DXOMARK
The Google Pixel 6 camera displayed an outstanding performanc and is currently the best option for photographers who prefer smaller devices.

My experience with dark objects in still photos has been somewhat similar. Recently I couldn't get enough detail photographing black camera bodies I'm selling online. Even with direct light from a daylight LED lamp I ended up using night mode. Every speck of dust showed up which wasn't ideal either.
Over all, though, I like the Pixel 6 camera.

Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm having the same issue... though it's not for every video, just in certain programs/websites.
Cheers.
I've been able to remedy this in chrome by turning off HW Overlays in Developer Options.
It's still an issue in Google Photos.

Author of the post found the solution and you should be able to see it in the thread. "turning off HW Overlays in Developer Options." It helped me a lot

Sorry if I didin't understand it at first, the toggle to disable HW Overlays in the developer options will always turn off again, at least in Pixel 6, so that's what confused me

Huh it stays on on note 10 . In that case i am not shure how u can keep it on. Can u elaborate on when it turn itself off back again?
Weird, after I turn it on, I can go to any other screen on the phone, if I come back the toggle it´s off again, maybe it´s a bug on my end, here´s the example
