The 'Photo sphere' feature of google camera offers exactly the same functionality. But you'll have to install using the modified APK from the link above, since it is not available from the play store on the S9.
I've complained about the missing camera feature at SamSung support. But they were unable to tell me if, and when to expect it to appear on the S9 (Plus). :-[

Samsung TAB S3 - Amazon Prime Video App - Only SD streaming No HD No HDR

SOLVED
Hello,
Love my Tab S3.
Amazon don´t support HD streaming with Amazon Prime Video App on this tablet. (only SD streaming)
With my old Note 2014 Tablet HD streaming was possible.
With Iphone 7 Amazon Prime App shows HD content. (in the same Network - 50 Mbits)
One Solution is to watch Prime Videos with Chrome Browser in Desktopmode.
But the video does not always run smoothly.
I have asked at Amazon Support - but have no great hopes for competent help.
Maybe someone can help?
is this the Amazon video app from the Samsung app store?
Hello RMXO,

You are right - the perfect solution.
Everythink works now!
Again Thx a lot!!!

Ah, was not even aware it was available through Samsung's app store - I've been side-loading it from a link on Amazon's site

I read that Amazon PRime Video was supporting HDR and didnt see it on the PlayStore so I went to Samsung App store and it was there. Shame I cant find Kindle for Samsung to get a free book every month.
GLad to have helped!
So. The Amazon prime video from the play store won't do hdr. Only from galaxy apps will?

that is correct
How do I know when hdr kicks in it if it's even working. At bottom it just shows 1080p (for man in high castle)
Does only amazon video support her in this tablet right now (Netflix?) . Is the tab s3 hdr 10 compliant or is it its own proprietary format ? So if I load a hdr 10 video on to it will it play in hdr on Samsung's stock video player (and how do I know, for example my Samsung TV always says "an hdr video is playing and brightens the screen when I do
What actually does real HDR on Tab S3 or S8+? I have both devices, and have not seen any HDR content actually availible yet. Would be nice to see in real life, even if just a sample clip or something.
ya and how to know if its active
I have Galaxy Tab S3 as well and was wandering how can I make use of HDR feature. I have called Netflix support, the answer is simple: Android Netflix app do not support HDR streaming. Only TVs and Xbox app but not Android app. I also checked Amazon Prime help section. It says on Android devices following is support it: SD and HD. The UHD and HDR on TVs only. Even if I choose HDR title on Prime while playback it only shows 1080p, not HDR.
So there you have it, even both Netflix and Amazon Prime have HDR content, Android apps do not stream/playback HDR. Hope this will change with future updates.
Any more progress on this? I'm finding it a little frustrating that the guys over at the S8 threads are able to play local HDR videos over the native Video Player while we can't seem to be able to.
would love to know myself. kind of frustrating.

hi. do you mind explaining how it is you know the Amazon app is indeed running in HDR? is there some visual cues?
I've noticed today in the UK anyway, that the Amazon Prime Video App now offers HDR and Ultra HD for a limited number of series, seems to work really well, Netflix is expected to make UHD/HDR available on Android later in the year.
Like has been said though it needs to be installed via Galaxy Apps, not the Play Store.
Yes, i contacted amazon prime video, the only device listed adide ftom tvs apis galaxy s7, and ask her to update and include our tab s3
How can I play Amazon video in hd? I have contacted the support but they can't help me.

Play youtube vids while screen is off ""NoRoot""No3rdPartyApps""

Play youtube vids while screen is off ""NoRoot""No3rdPartyApps""
Hi,
So I Discovered a way to play YouTube videos without the need of being in the youtube app, You can even play when The screen is off
# This method does not require youtube red
# No root is needed
It's actually pretty simple all you need is headphones or earphones with a pause/play Physical button.
1) Plug in the headphones
2) Play any youtube video from the youtube app.
3) Press your home button or switch off your screen, But don't remove youtube from memory.
4) Now all you need to do is click the Physical play button in your headphones.
Idk if it does work on other devices. But it worked on mine
LG G5 (H850) running nougat
Lol that actually worked. It's probably a bug, but i'll take it while it lasts.
the other way, is to use firefox instead of the youtube app.. you can keep it playing in the backgroud or with screen off
Or use OGyoutube. There is a NoRoot version and it enables background play, download and screen off play. I'm using it right now.

Yup, OGyoutube ftw!
Works on Bluetooth in my car as well.
Anyone have a link to a clean ogYouTube apk? The one I found is telling me to add an install of something else, microG; Avast didn't flag it, but better safe than sorry.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that. The microG APK is required to run OGyoutube.
Got it, thanks! I looked it up, it was legitimate, so I went ahead with the install.
It's an older post but you can also go to the youtube home page, request desktop site, start a video, turn off the screen, turn on the lockscreen and press play.
That was my method until today. Now I use just the play button on the head phones.
thanks.
No Pause Lock
try No Pause Lock for youtube with lock screen nopauselock eu
Or you guys could just get Ogyoutube. That's what I use to play videos in the background
Y Music is also awesome. Doesn;t play the videos, just music. No ads, and background play.
You can also download.

can someone optimize this dead app?

this is literally the best video live wallpaper app in the play store and can choose a whole directory but the developer has disappeared. hasnt been updated since 2016 and they dont answer emails. problem is with oreo and nougat the video slows down. im guessing the app takes sound into account but it never actually plays sound. i dont need sound. all of the other crappy apps in the app store dont even have half the features this one does but the crappy one work at full speed but can only choose one video. any help on fixing this app is greatly appreciated. ill donate.

Galaxy s10 Front and Back camera video recording in same time.

I was looking for this app for a while, i didn't find anything in google play...I only found camera app from NOKIA8,but this function is not working...app just crashes. I was surprised that all samsung users HAD this function long time ago, and it was working perfect..I am talking about dual camera photo/video recording. For example I am shooting video with main camera, and then im switching to front camera to show my self and people around.. THis was in stock camera in GALAXY NOTE 3.. You can see in youtube how it was working if you copy and paste this in a search window -> Видео/Как снимать одновременно передней и задней камерами <-
You could run 3 modes: shooting in both cameras in same time(''Bothie''), switching between them any time during the video from front cam to back cam, or puting front camera in a small square..while main camera working..
Why we don't have this function now??? is it possible somehow to run on s10 this old app from NOte 3? I was trying to run it.. but it was crashing..
Or do we have some another app? or may be someone can remake this app from NOte 3? It's a really nice feature to switch between cameras while you are recording video(for blogers or adventure trips where you need to show everything).. and i don't understand why no apps in play store and why Samsung didn't make it for new phones? You can also see similar function when you doing video calls in WATSAPP, you can also switch between cameras in a real time..I would even buy this app if someone could remake an old app from note 3
