It seems since the October update we don't need that line in prop, it works by default even without root, at least on my device

So you're saying it works without root?
Which port are you using? Is it this one? v.1.4_v3: MGCB_7.0H_C2API_Full_PXL2_v.1.4_60FPS_noburst_v3 (ivanich, 2017-08-27) (stable, no config needed)

For me, stock camera doesn't work consistently anymore even with HDR off. It seems to work in normal lighting situation but not in low light situation where I get the error explained in initial post (very strange).
Same here.
HDR mode is not working on Mi Camera app , says "Camera error - can't connect to camera" everything else works.

Hello
I got tired waiting for an official fix, so I came up with this workaround.
twrp-flashable_OPX2.2.0_camera_patch.zip - This zip with apply the OPX front camera configuration.
twrp-flashable_OPX_camera_patch_imx214.zip - This zip will apply the OPO rear camera configuration
You'll be able to record 1080p at night without worrying about the fps drop issue.
I am not responsible for any damage on your device when applying this patch.
EDIT: Added a revert flashable zip.
EDIT2: Added zip file with imx214 libchromatix_default_video.so
Sweet. Thanks
Swapped my Recent and Back buttons.
Edit:
A couple reboots might've fixed this, but I also messed with Gravity Box a bit as well. There's two options to fixing that problem, potentially.

This patch shouldn't mess with buttons layout. You might had a pending operation that took effect on reboot when you flashed this zip.
try hydrogen os.
does your phone need to be rooted or will it work fine with stock?
Does this patch works also with custom roms like cm13?
Sorry. This patch is for default camera only? Or its for any camera apps running on oss 2.20?
It works perfect now, thank you so much for this mod. Where did this libs came from?
Shame on One Plus btw.

Hi everyone , today while using camera i noticed hdr option is missing along with slow motion and iso & shutter speed option from the pro mode in Moto camera . Even front camera is not opening. However in 3rd party camera apps front camera open but hdr is still missing. I am using modified stock 7.0 with camera2api enabled , defcomg chromatix mod and 32 bit gcam by savitar. How to fix moto cam as i use it regularly ? Thanks all in advance
This is happen bcuz of enable cam2api idk why maybe the Moto cam app dosen't compatible with camera 2 so if you want these options back you have to disable cam2api. Same of you I tried so many times to find out what happened with camera and discover that enable cam2api make this bug happened.
The stock camera app relies on the phone's default camera api. Enabling camera2 api breaks it.

There is a quirk on stock nougat where permissions get messed up after editing a system file. Install root browser, navigate to system, find the build.prop file and in properties set the permission to -rw-r--r-- (644) like in the attached screenshot. Then reboot.

You just need to add camera2api line via terminal and save it that's all No need for tools or installing anything.
At the mean time almoat everything is giving green tint or Focus Issue, so I'll wait

I have tried these two lines using an adb shell from twrp without being rooted and they didn't work.
Code:
setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1
setprop persist.camera.eis.enable 1
To confirm can you tell me which lines you used?
EDIT:
I think i solved it. I went into recovery. Using adb pull and push commands i edited the persistent_properties found in /data/property. I copied and pasted a random line and changed it into the actual line to enable camera2api. Also i changed the permission of the file after pushing it using "chmod 600 [file]". Now Manual Camera Compatibility shows all green marks.

Yes this works. But compared to Arnova's V8.3b, none of the newer mods (Including Arnova's latest version - 6.xx) seems to produce crispier images as it used to do before. I agree that the older app took too long to process the images. But the reduction in quality is pretty evident. I'd still stick with the older version.
Currently im in stock ROM rooted but i can't find any gcam that works good with my phone. The version i have is the fu24 one which works but not as it should for the focus side.
Suggest me a version down below for the stock ROM.
Thanks
I don't think the focus on any GCam works on the stock ROM after a update. There's a kind of fix where you need to set the image aspect ratio to 16:9 for it to work. You lose a few pixels but hey, at least the camera finally works.

so switching to 16:9 ratio, Gcam wont have Autofocus issues in stock pie Roms?
Also is trick is for gcam v5 or v6 or both?

Correct. I'm using my GCam on 16:9 on my Stock, no modification Pie ROM for a while now and have absolutely no issues. And yes, this fix works for all the GCam versions. I have both v5 and v6 and autofocus works on both.

I use this one for Night Sight and for RAW (the front camera doesn't work in it): https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_V1.apk
I rarely use this one for HDR+ with a longer shutter, and the front camera works too: https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V1.apk
This is the best one I have used so far. If you drop back cam to 9MP the autofocus issue goes away. I'm using stock androidone pie on MiA1 GCam_6.2.024_N7P_test1.apk

It's a bit more complicated than that but its not hard to be honest . This is the guide i followed to flash my mi a1 https://telegra.ph/Installation-Guide-For-Mi-A1-Pixel-Experience-03-26 . Take a backup of everything before flashing the ROM if something goes wrong also watch a couple videos before trying it . Good Luck
