Hi, I'm a Photography enthusiast and always in the look out for better Camera apps and photo editing softwares. Recently, I downloaded several famous apps that boasted providing manual controls. When I installed them, found that none of them worked. After a little search I found that there is some Camera2 settings that need to be implemented by manufacturer and that these should be in place for most of the phones that are above Android Lollipop version.
Does Zuk Z1, which is now on Nougat version support this Camera2 ? If yes, How to enable them? I'm on Official Nougat ZUI v2.5.358ST version.
If this settings cannot be enabled, are there Camera apps out there that can give me manual controls and 4K video shooting on Zuk Z1 (Official Nougat??
Thanks a lot in advance.
Surprised ! No one seems to have an answer to my question. May be I asked too much.
Zuk z1 doesn't supports camera 2.api
It should be implemented by lenovo

This ROM could give you 4k, 60fps, manual control.

Thank you, I will give it a shot and update.
By the Way, I'm on Official Nougat 7.0. Is this Lineage OS too something similar? Just download and Flash it through TWRP or Is there anything specific that I should be careful about?

Dear All,
I've gone through various threads just to realize that there's not one APK for Google camera which works perfectly on One Plus 5.
I'd greatly appreciate if anyone here can help me with a perfectly working GC APK link.
Note: I'm running my OP 5 on stock ROM.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I recomend this apk: LINK

Sorry the last link it's wrong.
Correct link: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7beta-test-9.apk
GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7beta-test-9.apk
For me its the best version of all apks and dont need any configuration only you need install .
None work flawlessly, and unless OP makes some changes it won't be possible to have a fully functional GCam without system changes (root or at least an unlocked bootloader would be required). The camera library files from OP are 'customized' in ways that make them not fully compatible with the Camera2 API that GCam depends on. Devs here have been working hard to band-aid it, but only so much can be done by modding the GCam apk to work around the libs. Changing the libs to match GCams needs currently breaks compatibility with OP features (Face Unlock specifically). The ideal for us as users is that OP updates the libs to support full Camera2 and also keeps their own propriety additions in place so that everything can work.
Sorry, front camera in portrait mode or HDR+ make an horrible pink images with lines.
Really frustrated.
Back camera with portrait and HDR+ works fine; the problem starts with frontal camera
I'm the only?
The modded GCam app is horrible, portrait mode not working, slow motion as well and the image quality is worse
Check this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76543768&postcount=2927
If you install the magisk/twrp mod for front cam and hdr+ fix with pixel2mod 7beta9 (file name GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V7.9.apk), you actually have an almost fully working (and arguably better than oos) camera app. Only thing remains missing is the slowmo and 60fps video modes, which you can still achieve using the oos camera.
Since the b12 beta, we seem to have a real camera2 implementation. My question to the devs is, will it be possible to use the leaked beta to get camera2 api working on your custom roms in the future. Or do you need the source code from the beta in order to do that?
As far as I know it works...

^So your answer is?
way to ruin a thread @macmobile thanks!
ignoring the guy that can't be bothered to ready tough, @GodOfPsychos has a very good question.
Does this beta opens the possibility of having custom oreo roms without errors like dual sim, call bugs and also with camera2 api?
@Unjustified Dev can you please help us out with some information on this?

Actually yes. AEX and RR already have HDR+ working, and NFound made a zip that fixes HDR+ on B01. It basically takes camera.msm8996.so from B12 and puts it in the appropriate place on B01, and also changes build.prop somehow (i'm guessing that he adds the HAL3 prop, haven't checked).
NFound says that if someone decides to share the stock ROM's source code (That person being @OrdenKrieger) he could fix NFC on B01 too. But you know, NFound has beef with a bunch of devs, unsurprisingly...
I'm not sure about dual sim or call bug, but it fixes HAL3 and consequentially HDR+
oh, the "when I want to" guy. well, that's just bad luck then....

So HDR+ is working then on latest AEX? Or should the patch from 01 be used to make it work? Because I'm on the latest AEX release and HDR+ still doesn't work.
Thanks in advance
It may be a silly question, but why are people trying to fix things on B01 when B12 is out, where those things are already fixed?

The main question we have here is not if we can "port" fixes from B01 to B12; ratherm we're interested to know if B01 and B12 can be used to bring fixes to the custom ROMs like, Lineage, AEX, RR etc. etc.

Or missing things like the camera2 api. Of course aex have gcam somewhat working (like choose an username said) but nougat does have pretty much the same as well (only minor differences, which make aex and rr to use gcam somehow) but they are all lacking full level 3 implementation. I really hope the devs like unjustified, ordenkrieger would give us some insight if it would be possible to use the b12 (or newer if available) beta to port the camera2 api over. Idk if this would work since I'm not familiar with rom development. Perhaps it won't be possible to port because we would need the source codes for oreo? Thats basically what i wanna know.

You can't really"port" stuff reliably. There's a rumour that there are certain Devs who do have access to source but unable to release it yet as they are waiting for the official go ahead from zte. eg release of official Oreo or failing that, admitting the release will not happen.
Hopefully it is true and like with nougat we have lineage os again working well but i don't know.
Right now we make do with what we have, leaked beta releases and a few decent aosp Oreo roms with slightly janked HDR+ support.
HEY! Developers please help me ,I have a Lenovo k6 power with stock ROM , unlocked bootloader and rooted,

Had the same issue. For the ones that install, change the front and back camera video resolutions to 720p and it won't crash again. I currently use version 4.1.006. let me know if a newer version works for you when you apply the 720p video resolution

Basically the stock ROM is 32 bit. So you can't possibly install the normal ones as they were grabbed from nexus 6p or 5x or pixel 1 or 2. Which are 64 bit based roms. If you really want to install Google camera, try to install a 64 bit ROM or use a 32 bit compiled Google camera.
Hi.
Is it possible to enable Camera2 API (for manual camera settings) on the ZTE Axon 7 Mini (LineageOS 14.1/Android 7.1.2)?
I tried to enable it by modifying the build.prop file adding this line at the end:
Code:
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
After the reboot it passes all the tests of the Manual Camera Compatibility app but when opening any camera app (Open camera or LOS's stock) an error message appears and indicates that it is not possible to establish a connection with the camera.
The error message is solved after deleting the added line and rebooting.
The camera section of the build.prop file is the following:
Code:
# Camera
camera.hal1.packagelist=com.skype.raider,com.google.android.talk
camera.lowpower.record.enable=1
camera.display.umax=1920x1080
camera.display.lmax=1280x720
media.camera.ts.monotonic=1
persist.camera.stats.test=5
Maybe there are some more tweaks needed.
Thanks in advance.
I found only this

To all who came here hoping to use Google Camera HDR+ port, for the last time, it will NOT work on the Axon 7. Stop trying, it's impossible to get it to work. As mentioned above, our kernel lacks proper HAL2 API support, so the Nexus 6 HDR+ mode doesn't work. You either cause Google Camera to force close, or the pictures you take will appear the exact same as without HDR+(if you somehow managed to get it to work). A lot of people have tried in other threads and confirmed that the HDR+ mode doesn't work so don't try to be a genius and think that with some luck magic will happen. Devs have looked into the kernel code and found that proper Camera2 API code is missing. Unless you are better than the devs here, and think you can implement Camera2 API yourself, I suggest you either contact ZTE to request for proper Camera2 API support, or just give up. You don't just plant a flag in your build.prop and then cause an API to work, your software has to support it. The manual controls that are enabled by Camera2 API work with the build.prop flag because ZTE used some hacks to implement only those features and not the full Camera2 API. So having manual controls doesn't mean anything. Please stop spamming this thread about trying Google Camera Port, thank you. Just use non-HDR+ mode, if you really want a good camera buy another phone that has been confirmed to work with the Google Camera port like OnePlus phones. Or get the Google Pixel yourself

My apologies, my post was only relevant for non-B12 ROMs. ZTE has fixed Camera2 API in B12 so if you flash the B12 Beta Mifavor, LOS 15.1 or latest AEX(after June) you'll be able to use HDR+! I have tested it myself and it works My sincere apologies for the stern tone and very pessimistic words, I was wrong. ZTE does care a lot(they're even implementing Treble)

Sadly I don't think ZTE cares anymore for the mini. And the dev community for this phone isn't as active as it used to, as everyone's busy with their own lives i guess.
I'm trying to install Google Camera. So far, I've tried BSG versions , a few of them, all 32 bit of course (made for Android 6+). You can finde the list at celsoazevedo website, filter for BSG and look up for 3.2
None of them has worked, I can install the app, I can run it, I can record video but when I switch to camera mode I only see a black window and it freezes. I can even access the settings.
What can I do? Is it because S5 doesn't have Camera2 API? Is there a solution? I'd really like to use Gcam, even if it'd be a super old version, cause the stock camera of Resurrection Remix ROM is really bad
Thank you

Thank you so much man, it's working
I wanted to try Gcam cause everyone says it's really good. I know the latest versions are much much better because of many factors, but I guess this old version is still better than the custom ROM stock ones.
I'll also try open camera, thanks
Works on G900F / G900FD ?
