How To: Unlock the Electronic Image Stabilization Feature on Your Nexus 5X

How To: Unlock the Electronic Image Stabilization Feature on Your Nexus 5X
The Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P have identical camera hardware—in fact, both use one of the highest-end camera sensors ever put into a smartphone. The only real difference between the cameras on Google's latest flagship devices is that the 6P natively supports electronic image stabilization (EIS) whereas the 5X does not.Don't Miss: The 5 Best Camera Apps for Android EIS helps reduce blur and shaking in videos, so Nexus 5X owners were understandably disappointed when the feature was left out. But thanks to a Reddit user's discovery, we can enable true image stabilization on the Nexus 5X with one simple build.prop edit.
RequirementsRooted Nexus 5X Root-enabled file browser or Build.prop editor installed

Step 1: Modify the Build.prop FileYou'll need either a root-enabled file browser or a build.prop editor app to enable electronic image stabilization on your Nexus 5X, but since file browsers are more common, I'll outline the process using that method.To begin, head to the root directory on your device, which is the highest folder you can get to in the folder tree. From here, open the system folder, then make sure it's mounted as "Read/Write" so that you can make changes to the files it contains. Next, long-press the "build.prop" file at the bottom of this folder, then select "Open with" and "Text Editor." Next, scroll down to the very bottom of your build.prop file and press the enter button on your keyboard to add a new line. From here, type in the following line of code, making sure to copy it exactly:persist.camera.eis.enable=1

Step 2: Save Changes & RebootOnce you've added the new line, tap the three-dot menu button at the top of your screen and choose "Save" to wrap things up. From here, simply reboot your phone so that the changes you've made will take effect.

Step 3: Enable EIS in Camera SettingsOnce your phone finishes rebooting, go ahead and open the stock Camera app. From here, head to the main Settings menu, then choose "Resolution & quality." Finally, toggle the switch next to the "Enable video stabilization" option, and from now on, your phone will shoot with full EIS capabilities. How much has enabling electronic image stabilization on your Nexus 5X reduced shaking in your video?

News: Everything You Need to Know About the iPhone 8 & 8 Plus
Every other year, Apple comes out with "S" model iPhones that enhance and speed up their main series models from the previous year. This year, however, because of the highly-anticipated 10th anniversary iPhone, aka the iPhone X, Apple has dropped the "S" and moved straight to the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus.Don't Miss: The 85+ Coolest New iOS 11 Features You Didn't Know About What's that now? Yes, Apple ditched its traditional naming scheme in favor of confusing us all. The 7S and 7S Plus are actually the 8 and 8 Plus, not to be confused with the iPhone X, the 10th-anniversary iPhone. Still with me? Good.Here's everything you need to know about the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, Apple's traditional, and probably overlooked, 2017 smartphones.
Release DateWe learned today that the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will go up for preorder on Friday, Sept. 15, and will be available in stores on Friday, Sept. 22. If the 8 or 8 Plus is your go-to this year, keep those dates in mind.More Info: Preorder & Release Dates for the iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus

Size Will Stay the SameThe iPhone 8 and 8 Plus both maintain their 7 and 7 Plus size equivalents, at 5.45 inches by 2.65 inches for the 8 and 6.24 inches by 3.07 inches for the 8 Plus. Thinness will stay the same at around 0.29–0.30 inches, and the screens retain their respective 4.7- and 5.5-inch sizes.If you're an iPhone 7 or 7 Plus user switching to an 8 or 8 Plus, lucky you — your old case will probably fit your brand new iPhone. Image via Apple

Enhanced with True Tone Retina HD DisplayWhile the OLED vs. LCD battle is still raging hard, one display feature that's a bit of a game-changer is True Tone. It was introduced on Apple's latest iPad Pros and causes the display to change color temperatures based on your environment. This provides a more comfortable viewing experience and should be a great benefit to iPhone users — especially the Plus size models. This is how awesome the True Tone Display is on the iPad Pro. Image via Apple

Portrait LightingApple is introducing lighting control within the Portrait Mode of the iPhone 8 Plus. This mode uses machine learning to analyze the light in your portrait scene, then gives you control over how to change the lighting. It looks like a useful feature, and although Apple's demo was most likely shot in a controlled studio, the results initially appear impressive. Images via Apple
4K 60 FPS & 1080p 240 FPS Slo-MoBuilding on the 4K ability that has been available since the iPhone 6S, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will now be able to shoot in 4K at 60 FPS (frame per second). That format is great at capturing motion, so your videos will look smoother than ever.The 8 and 8 Plus also now shoot 240 FPS slo-mo at 1080p. That's a quality jump from the 7 and 7 Plus, which both max out at 720p for 240 FPS. Your slo-mo videos will look the best they've ever looked on the 8 and 8 Plus.
Augmented Reality (AR)Augmented reality is now a focus on the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus. Apple showed off how its newest phones will allow you to use augmented reality in more situations than ever before, like games, educational apps, sports apps, and more.Cool features like spacial audio change the volume and design of the sound of the AR as you move closer or further away from the source. From the game demo Apple showed off in its presentation, that feature, in particular, looks very effective.While the phones do not have the iPhone X's camera designed for AR, it's clear Apple has a real focus on the burgeoning technology.Don't Miss: iPhone X — Everything You Need to Know About Apple's 10th Anniversary Smartphone

Faster A11 Bionic ProcessorIf there's one thing guaranteed with each new secondary model (with each new iPhone, in fact), it's that Apple upgrades its chipset. With the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, Apple is introducing the A11 Bionic chip.Apple claims the A11 is up to 70% faster than the A10 fusion chip found in the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. The phones also now have six-core processors as opposed to the quad-core processors on the 7 and 7 Plus.
Updated StorageWhile the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus started at 32 GB storage capacities, Apple scratched that base limit. Now, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus come with either 64 GB or 256 GB. And thank goodness for that. iPhones don't have expandable storage, so anything under 64 GB really fills up quick.

Wireless ChargingWireless charging is finally available for iPhones. The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will support the feature based on Qi technology, which is a wireless charging standard that already works with many car and tech companies. This should sit well with Apple fans who have long-awaited wireless charging to come to the iPhone.Don't Miss: Qi Explained — The Best Wireless Chargers for Your New iPhone X, iPhone 8, or iPhone 8 Plus Image via Apple
Fast ChargingAlso worthy to note is that the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, just like the iPhone X, is capable of fast charging, gaining 50% charge in about 30 minutes, but you have to use Apple's USB-C power adapters. That means more money for you (at least $74), since these devices ship with a USB power adapter, not a USB-C one. So you would need a compatible USB-C power adapter and a Lightning-to-USB-C cable.More Info: How to Fast Charge Your iPhone X, iPhone 8, or iPhone 8 Plus
Glass EncasingThe iPhone 8 and 8 Plus now feature all-glass enclosures, which, in addition to being a nice aesthetic addition, is what allows the phone to be compatible with wireless charging.

Splash, Water & Dust ResistantThe 8 and 8 Plus models retain the IP67 rating that the 7 and 7 Plus models had.More Info: The iPhone 8 & iPhone X Are IP67 Water-Resistant — Here's What That Really Means Image via Apple

Stereo SpeakersJust like the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, the 8 and 8 Plus have stereo speakers located on the bottom and at the earpiece. There's also an additional built-in microphone at the earpiece section. Image via Apple
Only 3 ColorsThis time, there's only three colors to choose from — Gold, Silver, and Space Gray.
Pricing Is ConsistentApple isn't known for making cheap products, and that can be painfully clear when purchasing a brand new iPhone, but it's unavoidable. If you want the 8 or 8 Plus, here's what it'll cost you:The 8 starts out at $699, while the 8 Plus starts out at $799. This pricing seems somewhat reasonable, considering it is close to the same pricing model currently established on the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus.The 7 and 7 models will likely drop by $100 each model just like the 6S and 6S Plus did when the 7 models came out.So, what do you think?

How To: The 7 Best New Camera Features in iOS 11 for iPhone

How To: The 7 Best New Camera Features in iOS 11 for iPhone
There are a ton of new features in iOS 11, but some of the best ones, in my opinion, are in the Camera app. They're not huge features, but they're much appreciated to anyone who's ever taken a Live Photo or portrait, or even to those who've needed to scan a QR code quickly.While some of the new photo-friendly features are geared specifically to iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X users, who get the benefit of a dual-lens setup, the rest of these Camera upgrades are items most of us can enjoy in iOS 11. And these new features range from new filters and effects to better file size management and more lively photos all around.Don't Miss: How to Download & Install iOS 11 on Your iPhone

1. You Can Scan QR Codes FinallyThe first new update to the Camera app in iOS 11 is the addition of a built-in QR code scanner. QR codes aren't exactly popular within the US, but you will find them every so often when out and about. And when you do find them, you'll be able to scan them directly with the Camera app instead of having to download a third-party app to do so.Not only will the Camera app be able to scan QR codes from billboards, posters, and flyers, but it'll also be able to scan QR codes from other mobile phones or tablets, as well as on computer screens. You don't have to make the QR code fit perfectly within a square or right under a red line (like you do on Android) — it'll scan just fine as long as the QR code is visible no matter what angle it's scanned from. As seen on NYC MTA bus stops (left) and calling a number — it's a real number, I swear! (right). If for some reason you don't like the Camera scanning QR codes automatically, you can disable this in Settings -> Camera, where you can toggle off "Scan QR Codes."Don't Miss: How to Turn Your iPhone's Auto-Brightness Off in iOS 11

2. There Are New Compression MethodsPerhaps the most appreciated feature will be the new compression methods for photos and videos. According to Apple, your photographs and videos shall remain at the same quality and clarity, while using half the amount of storage space as before. This should prevent users from running out of storage space as quickly while being able to save more memories than ever before.For videos, there's HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding) at H.265 instead of H.264, and for photos, there's HEIF (High-Efficiency Image File Format). To make sure you're taking use of this, just to go to Settings -> Camera -> Formats and make sure "High Efficiency" is checked. Videos will be saved as HEVC .MOV files, while images will be saved as .HEIC instead of .JPG.Right now, these new formats are only for devices with the Apple A10 chip, so for iPhones, that means the iPhone 7 models. Older devices with the A9 chip can decode them.

3. You Can Edit & Add Effects to Live PhotosTaking photographs has always been difficult, especially if you're taking a pic of more than one person. The shot you got was the shot you were stuck with (unless you happen to have the time to take a bunch, or used Burst to give you more choices).But then Apple introduced Live Photos, which completely changed the way Apple users were able to share moments and memories with one another. It didn't matter if Uncle George wasn't smiling or if Aunty Ellen closed her eyes, you could always hold down on the picture itself and find a moment that looked perfect. However, Live Photos didn't come with any tools to edit or play around with the animation aspect.Seriously, Apple has done spectacularly with the new editing tools and effects in iOS 11. You can now pick the still image in a Live Photo, trim the animation, add loop, bounce, or live exposure effects, and even share them more easily. We've already gone through these new features in detail, and they're seriously impressive. You can take a look at everything we've found in the article below.More Information: The 7 Best New Features for Live Photos in iOS 11 for iPhones Picking a new Live Photo still (left) and the new Bounce effect (right). Images by Justin Meyers/Gadget Hacks And while you may think these are more Photos features, don't forget you can access all these great features from the Camera app too.

4. Portrait Mode Got More FunctionalityWhile the iPhone 7 Plus is the only device with a dual-camera setup, it's a fairly popular device. Owners of the 7 Plus should be happy to hear that Portrait mode is getting an impressive upgrade. Starting with OIS (optical image stabilization) to flash finally being enabled, as well HDR compatibility.The blurred out background effect of Portrait mode should now look much better at nighttime since you'll be able to use the LED flash. If HDR (high-dynamic range photography) is enabled, then your iPhone will combine images to get you the most vibrant and detailed shots possible. WHT news intern Jake without HDR enabled (left) and with (right). We have a complete and thorough examination of the new Portrait mode available at the link below, so be sure to check that out if you own an iPhone 7 Plus.More Information: iOS 11 Adds OIS, Flash & HDR Support to Portrait Mode on the iPhone 7 Plus

5. There Are Fresh Camera FiltersFilters seem to be all the rage these days; Everyone's going crazy for them, from Instagram to Snapchat to WhatsApp and Kik Messenger. While Apple doesn't exactly have the same sort of silly and festive filters in their Camera app, they do have filters that change the mood and feel.While some of the new filters look very similar to the old ones that were there, only with different names, they are slightly better. The new filters include Vivid and Dramatic, along with a couple of variances that either increase or decrease the warmth of the picture. Less blue for a warmer picture, more blue for a cooler picture. We also see a couple of old filters such as Chrome and Instant disappear in iOS 11. Filters available in iOS 10 (left) and in iOS 11 (right).

6. The Camera Has Its Own Settings NowPreviously, the Camera app's settings were lumped in with the Photos app (listed as "Photos & Camera"), but now the Camera finally gets the appreciation it deserves with its own separate option in the Settings.

7. There's a Hidden Level for Overhead or Skyview PicsIf you tend to take a lot of top-down or straight-up photos, you'll be excited to know that the Camera app now has a built-in level to help you get the best possible shot. It's not on by default, so you'll need to enable it in the settings.

News: Here's Everything Samsung Upgraded from the Galaxy S8 to the S9

News: Here's Everything Samsung Upgraded from the Galaxy S8 to the S9

If you're not looking closely, it's easy to mistake last year's Galaxy S8 for the brand new Galaxy S9. Design, build materials, screen size, software — it's all virtually identical, save for a few exceptions. But those minor differences can add up.We made a chart highlighting all of the key differences between the two models, so check it out below to see the differences for yourself. After the jump, I'll go over each of those upgrades to explain how they'll impact real-world usage in case you're on the fence about picking up a new S9 or snagging a discounted S8. Image by Dallas Thomas/Gadget Hacks
Android OreoOkay, sure, the Galaxy S8 will eventually get its own build of Android Oreo, so that's not much of a difference maker when you take it at face value. But it does mean the Galaxy S9 will ship with lots of new features, and more importantly, it means the S9 supports Project Treble.Even when you update the Galaxy S8 to Oreo, it will not support Project Treble. But since the Galaxy S9 ships with Android Oreo out of the box, it's required to support Treble. In addition to being a boon for custom ROM users, this means the S9 should get significantly faster updates than the S8 ever did — for more information on why that's the case, check out the following link.Don't Miss: Thanks to Project Treble, the Galaxy S9 Should Actually Get Fast Updates
Higher Screen-to-Body RatioSamsung kicked off the bezel-less craze with their Edge phones, but then Apple came in with the iPhone X and stole some of their thunder. While the Galaxy S8 already had a larger screen-to-body ratio than the iPhone X, the S9 takes things a bit further. Now, the front of the phone is 84.2% screen — about as bezel-less as it gets.

Aperture ImprovementsIn the simplest terms, aperture is an opening that allows light to pass through. With cameras, a wider aperture means more light gets through to the camera sensor, leading to better pictures at nighttime and in dark areas.The Galaxy S9 has wider aperture on both its front and rear cameras when compared to the Galaxy S8, so your selfies should be a bit brighter and all pictures should have a little bokeh effect to them. But since there are some instances when wider aperture isn't necessarily better, the S9 even packs a "Dual Aperture" feature that's a first for any smartphone. This new tech is perhaps the single biggest improvement in the Galaxy S9, and you can read more about it at the following link:Don't Miss: Why the Galaxy S9's Dual Aperture Camera is a Milestone for Mobile Photography Image by Samsung/YouTube
Snapdragon 845If you're in the US, you'll notice one major improvement to the Galaxy S9: It's packing the all-new Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC. After the Snapdragon 810 and 820 processors had issues with overheating, the rest of the chip-making world pushed ahead while Qualcomm was forced back to the drawing board to fix their chip design. This resulted in the next Snapdragon iterations being noticeably behind competitors like Apple's A11 or Samsung's own Exynos 8895.Thankfully, Qualcomm seems to be getting back on track and closing the gap. According to Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 845 is 25% faster than the 835 that powers the Galaxy S8, all while managing to be 30% more power-efficient. That's not all — there's plenty of new functionality in the 845, and you can read about all of the differences below.Don't Miss: 5 Snapdragon 845 Features That Are Better Than the 835
Stereo SpeakersThis last one's pretty self-explanatory, but in case you missed it, the Galaxy S9 actually sports stereo speakers. The earpiece speaker up top will double as a loudspeaker in addition to the bottom-firing speaker that you'd find on past Galaxy models. So if you're big into gaming or streaming movies on your phone, this particular upgrade should help quite a bit.In the end, yes this is an iterative upgrade, but that's just were the mobile industry is headed. We've broken down most major barriers that came along with having a computer in your pocket, and now we just need some refinement. The Galaxy S9 is just that — a more refined version of the Galaxy S8.Don't Miss: Everything on the Galaxy S9+ That You'll Be Missing with the Regular Galaxy S9Follow Gadget Hacks on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Flipboard Follow WonderHowTo on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Flipboard

There are other components in the watch's solar cells that make it function more efficiently.
