Anyone know if a 3rd party app exists for successfu recording 4K/UHD on the G2? Like "OPEN CAMERA" from the playstore?
When I tested CloudyPro 3 rom , with OPEN CAMERA I managed to get the option to FORCE 4K/UHD recording, but it fails to work.
When I tested it with CloudyPro 2.2 rom, I get no FORCE option like above. at all.
Both of the above roms support 4k/UHD recording with no problems with the default camera app.
My goal is to get quicker and more focusing options than the stock recording app.
Thanks
Try LG Camera https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCamera&hl=en , maybe you will get 4K option there

Thanks..Interesting. Didn't know there is a new version out that has 4k option (6.8) ...Just tried it, unfortunately can't get it to do 4k on the G2. When set to 4k, it actually records in 1080p no matter what settings, and it is laggy . Maybe their next version will work better.
That's unfortunate. Why don't you try xdabbeb's camefa mod?

Thanks for suggestion. That's the first mod I tried to get 4k. Great mod, however it's designed to allow better recording specs like 4k, etc, not really give more app features.

video call camera testing- possible?
is it possible to check the video cam? just turn it on to see if it's working (without entering the video call mode)?
Yes, the camera app allows you to switch to front facing camera
camera app?
I don't think that is possible, changing profiles using the camera app always use the back camera, not the video call one.

The coolcamera application can be set to use front cam. For example as a web cam Not a free application but can download it for trial purposes but it limits use to 25 seconds or something until you start it again.

My mistake, must have been the universal that allowed this
you could always call your video mailbox. still have to make a call though, but not to another person
nah i just wanted to see if my video cam works properly. done it with coolcamera, thanks
Does anyone know a app that allows for transmission of Tytn front camera pix over GPRS/3G, like a webcam? Over IP, not videocall. Cool Camera has extracted its webcam part as addon (on Dec. 5), so maybe it can do it now? Anyone tested?
Is there a way to check this is working without making a video call?
I have no 3G reception here and need to check it works before my 7 day return is up.
Thanks.
I heard there is a program called CoolCamera by Ateksoft which will let you do this. I have not tried it out yet, though.
Just call a land line you will see the front camera image for a moment and then the call will fail.

CoolCamera has that feature alright, but for some weird reason the video displayed is tilted sideways and there is no way to fix this inside CoolCamera settings...
What I did noticed tho, is that the video quality is of inferior quality and lower framerates.
Peace!

Hi everyone,
I hope this is the right section for this kind of questions.
Anyway, I'd like to know if someone can help me.
I'm absolutely not able of getting Google Camera to work.
I tried different version, I think the problem is caused by the fact that our phone has a SD801...
But I have no idea how to solve it.
Camera just crash as soon as I open it.
Thanks to everyone!
Lorenzo Benevento.
Not just coz soc is sd801
It is arm based
Google camera is nowadays built for arm64 architecture
And which version would work?
If there is one obviously!

The versions which came with nexus 6 would work
That will be around v3
I tried but I can't downgrade. How come? It shows "corrupted package".
i use Google camera 2.7 in my zuk z1
I downgraded to 2.7.010, It works and connect to camera but I'm unable of taking videos!
It start recording but when I tap on the stop icon it freezes and the only thing that I can do is to reboot the phone. Or close the app (but camera would be busy, so no tourch for example or no other photos until the next reboot).
magnet1215 are you able to take videos?

Try this snapdragon camera. It will crash on first pic taken, first video taken, first slow or fast motion video. But honestly I tried lot of camera apps and this is best one of all.

Remove Slow motion Magisk module and install another Google Camera apk that has working slowmo.
After that slowmo will be working with both stock and Gcam.
If you have lags open stock app, go to video then return to Gcam.
Go Vale46

Install this:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/MGCamera_5.1.0.18_R4X_v.5.1.3.apk
Slow motion should work.
If not go to stock app and tap on video, then return to GCam.

By trying the second method it worked,thank brother!
Hello,
this thread is actually nothing special, I've just found some settings to get good results out of these Gcam apks and I'd like to share them here.
This is tested on the latest Stock Pie (10.0.2.0) and it works on my device.
So, first of all you have to enable Camera2API obviously (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/how-to-enabling-cam2-gcam-android-t3868766), but I think you're all familiar with that at this point.
Download one of these apks: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/
(I'm on the latest one) or if you prefer an Arnova version based on MGC by BSG (No PixelMod).
After that go into settings->BSG MOD settings.
Input Model: Set "Interface Style" to "Pixel II" (there are some focus issues with Pixel III), "Back Camera" to "Pixel 3 XL", "Front Camera" to "Nexus 6P" and "Config" to "Pixel2018 ZslR Hdr+"
FIX: Set "RAW Format" to "RAW10(default)" (this should already be set), "Image Format" to "YUV_420_888 (default)" and enable "Enable Motion" if you're into motion photos.
After that close the app, clear its cache and start it again.
If you experience some FC, try to clear again the cache and restart the app.
Now you should get a fairly stable Gcam with good performance, at least this is the best I've tried so far.
Portrait mode, HDR+, HDR enhanced and HDR OFF all work, burst photos work, Motion photos work, Night mode work, front camera works, panoramic works.
The only broken thing is Slow Motion.
The Camera will crash if you try to take a picture with Flash and HDR+ on OFF, but to me it's not a big deal since I never turn it off unless I want to take a burst. Anyway if you set "Pixel2018 Zsl Hdr+" in "Config" you should get this to work as well, but you'll lose Motion Photos. it's up to you here.
So that's it, if you find any better Setting, please share it
Sorry for maybe hijacking the post but i was using a gcam for nokia 7 plus which has the same 660 chip found here https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-backrider/ . I found it to be really stable too except 4k which doesnt work.

No hijack, don't worry!
I'm trying it and it works mostly fine, but it looks like it FC a bit more often than the BSG version (maybe it's just an impression of mine).
Anyway the main think I dislike about the non-BSG versions is that you can't select "Pixel II" as the interface and you lose tap to focus, which makes the app completely unusable to me.

Currently I'm trying Eszdman new, Savitar is too noisy for my tastes... But I still have to experiment actually
Any custom ROM I try, I can't even get the camera to run, any app that uses it crashes. But when I do get it, I can record the video itself but it crashes when I end the recording and nothing gets saved.
So far I've tried numerous Lineage OS 16.0 versions and Havoc 2.9, none which work
Have you tried clearing the camera’s cache files? If not, you can do so by following the below steps.
Open “Settings” on your Android deviceTap on “Applications*-> Application Manager”From the drop-down menu, make sure that you’ve chosen “All Apps”Find the camera app and open it, tap “Force Stop”, tap on “Storage " and " Clear Cache”

For me, stock gallery is fine. But if you want to try something else, use Album app from Sony or Quickpic Gallery mod
