Updated using flash tool not wiping DATA. My a jays 5 headset is not producing sound when connected now. Might be something else but will continue investigate.

Did they fix camera blue problem?Tnx(anyone can try)

I heard that camera works better, but i didnt try it myself....and about battery life?

KKamera
There is really nobody who would like to test the camera in KK for us a little in 5 minutes?

First picture is taken with flashed Z2 camera (4.3 android)
And second stock 4.4.2 camera.
Superrior mode, flash turned off, very poor light conditions, about half meter distance from object.
Zoom 200% then cropped.

The second shot looks good! Unless you were really shaky on the first one.

So your first picture was taken with the camera app from the Z2 phone?
Anyway, this does mean that there are no big changes, doesn't it?

The shortcuts of walkman in The lockscreen sometimes doesnt work.
The camera app seems faster and The pictures have less ISO in The auto Mode than before. Só in general in low Light they seem better

But i think bleeding is still there after update - in some special conditions as before.
Also, starting camera with hardware key from deepsleep also didn´t work

For me the most noticeable improvement is that clear audio and other sound enhancements work in spotify. At last. I also like the new status and notification bar a lot.Other thing I noticed is more free ram. Overall I am quite delighted with it so far.

Anybody else has problems with very poor performance of lockscreen?
When a call comes in it takes about 10 seconds before the call screen appears, also entering pattern takes about 5 seconds .

Looks like users are reporting improvements on the camera:
Can confirm that after last update I am really impressed with the camera and with the feel of the 4.4.2 update very good job.

Both Auto+ and manual, Noise levels have been tuned down, which in term suggests lower ISO.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Have to agree. A quick play with the camera suggests that the superior auto especially has been improved; The ISO seems to be getting selected a little more conservatively so much lower noise.
KitKat update in general seems very nice, but thats off-topic for this thread.

Read through this.

Screen mirroring was buggy with .114 and now it does not work at all. Nice job
It's time to try with CM11.

Having only flashed it last night, so far bugs I've seen are the notification counters not clearing when all emails have been read and this morning I was unable to turn my alarm off, had to power down the phone to stop it!

Autofocus issues with OS 2.1.1

Hi,
Today i tried to take a photos with my phone and when i use the camera the image is very blurried and strange sound is coming from the phone while it uses the autofocus and the image on the screen is bad.
Tried to do a autofocus test, but fail on both tests.
Someone else had such an issue?

Yes mine does the same. Not sure if it is a software or hardware problem

Camera is working better on 2.1.2 but that ota introduces new bugs.

I have absolutely no problems with the camera.
Are you still facing the same issues with the latest update? @sirarisma , what new bugs are you talking about?

Sorry, not talking about new bugs with the camera, but system(dual sim for example). Camera is running fine.

Unfortunately, I am only using 1 sim... so I don't know if there is such a bug. But, I don't have any other bugs, it runs butter smooth
Did you try to search for a fix on here or the oneplus forums?

Confirmed bug(dual sim) on OnePlus forums. Actually im using 1 sim.
AK Kernel seems great, maybe its time to use it with HydrogenOS(its more stable)

what app did you use to test the AF?

Hello guys. I had the same problem. Noise from the autofocus.
It is a hardware problem. The camera should be replaced.
I contacted oneplus with a ticket. They asked me to take a video showing the issue.
After that, they send ups to take my phone. A month later, I have the phone repaired.

Camera 2.0 Available

It looks like Camera 2.0 is starting to roll out in the What's New app. I had to forcibly refresh mine from the menu to get it to show up. It's now the same UI that we saw in the IFA videos.
Initial impressions:
- It's noticeably faster to load up on a cold boot
- It's loads even faster after the first load
- With the phone off, I can press the camera shutter button and load the app in 1 second
- The UI is more responsive now
- Quality seems a tad bit better in low light but I'll have to take more photos to confirm

I've got it too, so far its fast than before, nice to have a changed UI, will need to take more snaps to confirm on the quality of pics.

Hmm, I had it show up, download and install. Opened the camera and it was the same. Checked the app and it still says 1.0 what the?
Solutions anyone?

You really have to open whatsnew several time to get this to work, but it suddenly updated and boom, xperiance is alot better than before! Nice update!
I can't post an image because I'm a noob (remove space)

Okay found it under what's new, seems to be taking forever to install?

For me the camera is slow like before
Enviado desde mi E5823 mediante Tapatalk

Just downloaded and startup time seems blazingly fast compared to the old app and the one on the Z3c. That was from a cold start and using it after I'd been browsing for a few minutes. Will see how it fares across a whole day...

All sorted, love the new UI. My camera launches quick, about half to 1 second from cold and instantly after closing and relaunching.

How do you launch the camera? With button or with icon camera?

Much faster in both cases. With button takes like 1-1.5 seconds. With icon, takes <1 second

Just had a morning walk with my toddler and have been snapping shots as well as checking email, etc.
The camera is much faster - this is the phone I was hoping for!!

I rebooted the phone and open the camera have the same delay that previous versions

That's really odd - how fast is the camera on the second start?
Maybe some other process is slowing the camera down. I disabled the "Photo Analyzer Service" as other XDA users had said it cause camera performance issues on earlier Z phones. The only thing I can suggest is that you try that if you haven't already.

In the second start is faster. Disabling photo analyzer don't fix the problem

I think the camera now is really impressive.
Have to take some low-light shots...
Here are the shots: all 8 Mpx automatic no flash

I see huge improvement to previous Camera app. Number of details increased and when zooming in pictures does not loose on quality

Yes the new camera app is much faster. But i was hopping for a better manual mode too, like raw support. We'll see, maybe with the marshmallow update.
Like shutter speed control, with it the camera would be totaly perfect.

Xiaomi Camera vs Google Camera [Mod]

What is better? the camera app from xiaomi or google? Has the camera app anything to do with video stabilization? If yes it will be better on Google Camera?
P.S: If someone can give me samples(images, videos) from both apps I will be happy

I posted here one simple example of the difference in night light: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74176704&postcount=34
In daylight Google camera is marginally better, and very consistent in good shots, the stock camera can sometimes loose focus.
I haven't yet had chance to compare videos, but I think the google camera will also give betters results, as the stock camera has issues in focusing in low light.

Search here in xda for google camera port, there are many many versions, so you must play with it. And root and enabling camera 2 api is a must for the apk to work.

Oh bummer... don't want to root Guess i'll leave it then...

tempted to root to install the GCam HDR+ but hesitant to do the tedious work in unlocking bootloader - fastboot - rooting
having the new phone for daily use is awesome, the only downside is the quality of low light pictures.. it's awful :fingers-crossed: my late mi4i takes low light with much better results..
oooh I guess that's why google pixle costs so much more

I recommend to root it. The picture quality is now stunning! Once unlocked and rooted, it is easy to relock and unroot since you know the steps

Anyone managed to fix the major lack of image stabilization on this camera?

If you mean the Miui camera, then it's up to Xiaomi to add stabilization.

Sorry, should have been clearer. I've found that blurriness in my photos is a real issue... I don't have root so Google camera is a no go, but seen a lot of people experimented with other cameras in this thread so wondered if any other software better than the stock Mi A1 camera software?

Hello Nitro, thanks for your example.
Did you use HDR Mode on Stock Camera or did you work on focus/exposition time?
This because I am getting good photos with Stock camera in low light; I cannot still compare with Google Camera because my device is not rooted (I will root, maybe, after Oreo update).

Well, one of the main reasons I bought this phone was for clean android and updates etc
Could be a misunderstanding on my part but I'm assuming that rooting will mean I don't get those updates?

Thanks, maybe I prefer Google Camera, but in my opinion both cameras have similar (good) quality. Or not ?

On good lightning they are similar (stock has a bit more noise), but when the conditions are not so ideal like on my examples above difference is bigger.

Hello friends, i like a lot this phone but 1 bug driven to me crazy. I set the video recording quality to 4K. Recording a video then closed the app. Next time i saw video recording quality set to default (Full HD) itself. Everytime i'm facing to this. Is there any solution about this?
