Lollipop Camera API new features NOT working - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, with the release of the Lollipop factory image for our Nexus 4 I tought that even the new camera features like manual focus would work; Sadly they don't.
Now the question is: "Is it possible to modify the camera drivers (or I don't know what else) in order to obtain full access to all the features or it is impossible?"

You're ignorant.
First of all search, then complain. Camera won't be updated instantly.
Try this and see if it works: https://github.com/PkmX/lcamera

I have a OnePlus One and i've installed CM12 unofficial, so i want to try if the new API's work here. I followed that procedure many and many times but i can't download it, i'm trying to download the beta from a mont so far! It results that i'm a developer but then it redirects me to the official page of Camera FV-5 and it says that there is no update. So i can download the "normal" version (because i've bought it), but i can't download the beta (and i have Lollipop, so it should install!). Thank you

[REQ] Photospere for AOSP Roms

I´m using the illusion Rom and i would love to see a Photosphere Camera.
Maybe its allready out there anywhere.
Right now I would wait for Focal from CM
Yeah i hope they will do it soon. Its so nice to have it.
I mean its working because the "liblightcycle.so" is available but the apk is not suporting the Resolutions.
I would like some Camera with more Resolutions and 16:9 Pics.
i'm using Camera FV-5 from Playstore.
it makes 16:9 pictures in png format.
the only app i found with png support

I want to do this, but how would you get that on an AOSP rom?
Search photosphere apk and you'll probably find a .zip file. You can flash as normal in recovery.
Sent from my Find 5 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Here you can dowload the flashable zip with the nexus camera and gallery app.
Just flash it with any recovery and it will ad the two apps. It wont change anything else.
I have a problem with photosphere. I used to flash the zip over maxwen's AOKP rom an i had no problems with it. But since the 8/20 Update the photosphere function wont work anymore. When i choose photosphere as the camera mode i get the following message: "Your device is not supported. Device: Oppo Find 5" and after i click ok the app crashes.
This confuses me because it worked on all the pre-8/20 roms and even on the stock rom.
Im also not to keen on going back to an older version of the rom because i would like to keep the SlowMo function introduced in 8/20.
Unfortunately i dont have enough posts yet to post in the development section, so could someone please quote this on maxwen's AOKP thread?

[DEV-ONLY][Z1-Z1C][MSM8974/SD800] Enable Camera2 api [Updated 12/22/2016]

Hello,
this thread is only for development discussion about enabling camera2 api on xperia camera. If you have anything useful, it's the right place, however, it's not for non-dev things.
What are we going to do ?
The best way for enabling camera2 api is porting camera hal from sony aosp camera.
So I have attached sony aosp camera hal at this thread. We should do some modifications on kernel to make it working on stock rom.
Current Status : CSID needs to be updated on kernel
This can help us :
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/ke...rch/arm/boot/dts/qcom/msm8974-camera.dtsi#L63
*Before testing camera hal, you should do 2 important works :
1. Remove following line from default.prop located at ramdisk : (At the moment, this is optional)
camera2.portability.force_api=1
2. Go to system>lib>hw and delete camera.qcom.so (This one is necessary)
Thanks To:
@davidteri91

works with cm12? or only with stock?

i know, but if you read, he wrote "Need some testers to test attached camera hal on Z1/Z1C"
PS: you're not a dev too
I will get myself multirom to run stock, if it works I will start testing and try to edit the kernel. If we do it properly, we could maintain BIONZ right?

I don't have a z1/z1c ...but i can try it on z2 mm if you want. If this mod was for z2 i'm the first who became your betatester. If you extend the compatibility with z2 or you want a betatester for one of your mods for z2 variant...just contact me

I tried so:
I removed the line as noted in Step 1
I extracted the file and copied to the folder "system" (with overwriting files)
Result: bootloop

Hey, I could not get multirom to work. I also had quite some stuff to do for school so I could not test either. Today I switched back to stock rom and will have more time the coming weeks.
I did as you said, except for the default.prop. Put all the right permissions, copied over the files, and rebooted. The camera, as expected, does not work, so I captured a logcat and dmesg.
Sorry for taking so long .

Which HAL did you use? Also, could you explain a bit more about csid, and how we should fix it? Would getting drivers from the AOSP kernel be any good, or should the stock code itself be updated?

Latest AOSP 5.1.1 camera HAL.
I'm not sure how we can update csid btw we should use aosp kernel drivers.

I'll play around with the kernels a bit to see if I can get something to work.

Doesn't seem like I can .

Is it safe to have Cyberian installed? Or should I reflash stock every time before testing?

Best nougat Rom , With ColorOS Camera.

Hello friends, I have been looking for some rom with the possibility of using ColorOS camera with its plugins.
I have been watching and reading several posts where some roms are discussed, where you can use ColorOS camera.
I would like to know if you know some Rom Nougat with good development where you can use it.
I currently have cm14.1 25/12 the last update and the camera works partially, the plugins do not
Thank you very much
Sorry for my english (google translate (K))
I tried on Nitrogen Os,got fc.
I hope someone who tried on other N ROMs could help us.
Also on Resurrection Remix
Camera open and no problem but plugins can't work
On Omni Rom they said it's support ColorOs but I didn't try it yet
try Darkobas 7.1.1 it has color os cam
link : here
ColorOS camera sadly does not work perfectly with Nougat.
I use-
[ROM][OFFICIAL][7.1.1_r6][BACON][OPTIMIZED]RESURRECTION REMIX [5.8.0]
&
[UPDATE][MOD]CameraNextMod[Based on Cyanogen OS 13 CameraNext](Denoise Feature)

Do you use it as a daily driver? I'm backing everyting up to make the switch from CM due to obvious reasons but I want to make sure I'm picking the most stable rom out there that's also 7.1
Currently using Nitrogen OS (2017/01/08), 4.0.1.c7-00013 firmware, reporting zero issues with ColorOS 2.67+camera+change.zip flash. I do not flash the CM_HAL_MOD.zip.
Hope that helps!

Ok one more question. When I flash the rom, will it be pre-rooted, or will it give me the option to do so. I personally don't want a active root on it due to certain apps I use that automatically don't work if the phone is rooted.

Sorry but probably last question. Which GAPPS should I go for to also get full functionality like the Google assistant and such. So far I tried flashing the ARM Stock but it seems to get an error and not install. Something about insufficient storage in the System Partition.

Mini is the maximum size of Gapps I guess supported by this ROM. After flashing just install 'get assistant' app from play store for Google assistant, I think in the next build the ROM has out of box Google assistant so need for a hack.

So I got the GAPPS installed. Getting a smaller version worked just fine. But I still have an issue with the iSu program. I got the apk and I installed that, but disabling Root in the app still didn't allow me to launch my app. I tried reading through the instructions but they aren't very clear, more specifically if i should also disable SELinux and what those zip files are and how to install them which are the: iSu_kernel_Reboot_Support_V_2_x_and_up_Enforcing
iSu_kernel_Reboot_Support_V_2_x_and_up_Permissive
