You can use Remote viewfinder via this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsungimaging.samsungcameramanagerinst  . There is some lag bit it is quite usable. However you have to use Samsung lens - it does not work with 3rd party lenses (stupid bug).

AGC - I have NX1 but to be honest - I still using it during video recording. If AGC is turned off you have to manually control audio gains and you have to be precise. Otherwise it can completely ruin your audio  - it can be too silent or too loud. However - best thing that I can always turn off AGC if it is needed and put manual control of audio gains to control wheel which NX500 or NX300 does not have...

If there will be some fw hack for turning off of AGC there has to be also some option to manual control of the gains... and it is maybe not so easy for hackers.
