    If the pressure sensitivity would be integrated well you could use it for more lifelike sketching, too. For example the app "Squid: Take Notes, Markup PDFs" allows to detect the pressure and to modify your line's width accordingly. Unfortunately the Xiaomi's pressure sensor is very inaccurate...

    Yeah that's a pity. Here's an explanation why: http://www.androidauthority.com/nova-launcher-developer-explains-third-party-launchers-dont-integrate-google-now-702352/

    Change Icons Size Without Root

    :D You can modify the icon size in Nova Launcher: Nova-Settings --> App- & Widget Overview --> Size & Caption (Don't know if it's the same term in English as I use the German version. It's the second menu item under App-& Widget Overview)

    I can recommend an alternative launcher like "Nova Launcher". Your dreams will come true ;) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher

    Android 7 (nougat) On Mi5s?

    The new Lineage OS version works like a charm. The fingerprint sensor even is unfamiliarly fast and seems better than I've ever experienced with a Miui-version - which is a pity for Miui... There are some minor bugs but I would call it usable. In a cooled down environment I got more than 156000...

    Xiaomi Mi5s (128/4gb, Black): German Review And Photography

    I wouldn't say that ISO100 is a bad thing. All my current and last DSLRs have ISO100 at the lowest - and the Mi5s' noise is not that remarkable at that base ISO. I don't see any disadvantage at this point. But it's true that the noise is a bit exaggerating at high ISO levels. - Yep, Germany...

    Xiaomi Mi5s (128/4gb, Black): German Review And Photography

    Thanks a lot! Yes these pictures are taken with the preinstalled camera app. If there are two similar photos the first one is the "normal" one and the second one with HDR mode. Besides its flaws (raw mode) I like the fast exposure compensation of the stock app (tap to focus -> slide up/down...

    Xiaomi Mi5s (128/4gb, Black): German Review And Photography

    Maybe there are some potential buyers from Germany who came here to find information about the Mi5s - so I'd like to share my review with you guys: http://testberichte.kuefeldt.de/xiaomi-mi5s-smartphone-deep-gray-black-schwarz I included some (winter) photography from the last month, too -...

    Rgb Notification Led

    The LED doesn't allow totally custom colors. Tried it by installing the app "LED Rainbow": It just switches between the predefined colors as soon as it should reach them in the "rainbow color scheme". If your app doesn't produce any LED light you have to activate its rights to use the LED.

    Notifications Aren't Arriving

    Had that problem in the ROM before, too. There I fixed it by deactivating the "MIUI-Optimizations" in the developer settings. Now the sync worked only after activating them again. So I'm not sure if it's the same problem.

    MIUI 8.2 7.1.12

    On my Mi5s there are problems setting wallpapers, too. But these problems only exist while I'm using a different launcher (Nova Launcher in my case). The preview is incorrect and as soon as I choose a different wallpaper the stock-Launcher (obviously active in the background) stops. To change...

    Force Touch Mi5s 3gb/64gb

    Additional you can try out the app "Squid" (taking notes, editing pdfs) and activate "pressure" when using the pencil tool: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.steadfastinnovation.android.projectpapyrus It's a bit sad that the pressure recognition differs so much from the middle of the...

    Mi5s Raw Photography: Colors -> Blurry/strange

    Yep you're right - but both terms are "mirror-inverted" ;) I'll try to explain that in German (as I think you're German because of your profile picture): Shutter Speed = Geschwindigkeit. Eine "hohe Geschwindigkeit" zieht kurze Zeiten nach sich. Exposure Time = Dauer. Eine "hohe/lange Zeit" zieht...

    Mi5s Raw Photography: Colors -> Blurry/strange

    I think xlillo was right ;) "Lower shutter speeds" = "longer exposure times" --> Lower ISO settings are possible

    Mi5s Raw Photography: Colors -> Blurry/strange

    Manual controls & RAW: If you'd like to request that feature you can confirm my thread on the original Miui-Forum: en.miui.com/thread-468557-1-1.html It should be easier to implement if it's already in the original ROM ;-) Stoik meant the App called "Manual Camera" on the playstore ;-)

    Mi5s Raw Photography: Colors -> Blurry/strange

    @Stoik: Great, that's it! Nice to learn something new. Unfortunately it looks like the color noise is a little strong on the Mi5s =/ Did you find a way to process the dng similarly to the result of the internally processed jpg?

    Mi5s Raw Photography: Colors -> Blurry/strange

    Hi, I experienced strange results of the RAW-photography mode. The overall impression seems legit but looking at the detailed colors/structures you find strange colors. It seems the colors are allocated to the wrong position of the black/white RAW image internally. As if the black/white-image is...
