Need Help With Input Jack

Actually you can. I've done it many times as this photo will show. It is a dual purpose jack and many phones have them but that information is not usually in the manuals... but a quick search on Google/YouTube will show it. For this shot I was using a Movo VXR10 microphone.
The issue I have is that when you do use an external microphone, the speaker is deactivated; on the G7 at least. I suspect the reason is the phone thinks you're using a headset with a microphone, even though it shows an external microphone option in camera settings. That makes no sense, but anyway. I would like to have the speaker functional as needed when I have a microphone plugged in.
OK that's something I've never used before. But I have used USB wireless mics with Android devices,
similar to this one... https://www.amazon.com/Microphone-A...ywords=usb+wireless+mic&qid=1617432192&sr=8-7
That I also use with Macbooks.

Help Set screen height to below camera setting removed in update?

Sorry for the late reply thought this site would auto update. Yes I was able to do this before the update.
I will try to look for some 3rd party camera apps but I think you might be misunderstanding me. What I meant was my screen size for my phone itself, not for the pictures my camera takes. The A40 is a phone which has one of those curved screens which goes to the very edges of the screen, which means it also invades the front facing cameras' space, the invasive space the camera takes up looks jarring to me.
These images should help explain exactly what I mean. The left image is what my screen looks like at the moment (meant to show the phone border plus camera at the top, everything in white is my screen space). But I want to hide the portion of screen in red like the right image shows. This used to be a feature in the past but I'm not sure if they removed it or if its just hidden, even then I'd love to know if there is any way at all to do this.
