Hi all,
I recently installed the GCam port on my Axon 7 (rooted, running Magisk), works fine, except for one problem. Flash just doesn't work properly.
- The first problem is that it's finicky on when it decides to use the flash, even if I set it to "On" in the on screen menu. I have to be in a dark environment for it to go off.
- Second, the camera won't take a correct picture when flash is active. It will work, but the final image doesn't have any flash on it.
Here is a video showing both problems: https://youtu.be/8isBucEs6WI (Somehow I even had the first problem in a very dark room)
If you guys know anything I can do to fix this, that would be great. Thank you.

This is still a WIP, camera is100% working so is video.
I added the Miui gallery apk to the list. I can confirm it works on CM7 as of now. If someone wants to test on stock blur builds let me know the outcome.
I see a lot of people complaining about the stock CM7 gallery so giver a shot.
If you get a chance THANK Mongoosehelix for his hard work. I just brought the app to our table but he is the one doing all the hard work!!!
Hopefully this modified version he has will work. MIUI cam is by far my favorite.
My girlfriend has an Inspire running CM7. When I put CM7 on her phone she was greatly disappointed in the stock CM7 camera app. I put the MIUI cam app on her Inspire and she loves it. I have to admit the app is great and has alot of great functions that most ROM cameras dont.
The MIUI cam offers a few options the droid 3 cam does not ie: Burst mode, anti shake, and a nice quick continuous auto focus. I have been playing with them side by side and i have to say the MIUI cam seems to do a better job overall. Images seem richer and a tad crisper.
The app needs a little DEV TLC still, but all camera functions working. Video works, just not sure of its resolution.
I am not a dev and I just like to play around try to get things working that dont lol. Well this worked out of the box to my surprise. Give it a shot and report back what you think.
If you have both the droid 3 and miui installed you have to back out of the app not just hit home or either cam app icon will revert to one last used, unless you back out then you can go back and forth. No FC or errors.
Focus tone still exists when long pressing picure button. Mute for the shutter tone works on CM7. Blur builds require the build.prop edit below.

MIUICamfixed.apk--->http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24110240/Camera.apk

I'm not getting it to work, I downloaded the apk and installed, made sure that I backed out of the stock camera and killed it another time, but miui camera still force closes.
Sorry wrong files, Links fixed.
Forgot to mention I'm also on Alien 4, fixed permissions through ROM Manager the first time, didn't work, tried through CWM, didn't work either, still force closing.

The video is being saved as a 3gp so no, but i am sure a clever dev out there can tweak this working MIUI cam to do more with the atrix hardware, but tahts outta my league. I think the only benefit in its current state is just the added picture options for the camera. I havent had anytime to work on this any further as i am at work and already doing stuff i shouldnt be doing lol.
can you change where the images are stored?
Its for picking the location you wish to store the files, but considering this isnt designed for our hardware it doesnt know what to do i think. By default it saves to internal DCIM folder. There are still a few minor bugs to work out, but for the most part all camera functions are working. I hope a dev can take this and build upon it to make it 100% functional, it will stay as is for the next day or two. Im off 3 days in a row so that will give me time to dive into the inner workings and tweak it a little.
I wanted to get this out so others with a little more know how could improve it before my slow ass can get to it. I just wanted to share because i think its one of the best camera apps out there.
Just for ****s and giggles I tried it on cm7 pb3 it opens and I can see the whole ui set up and when I click to take a picture it flashes but doesn'tsave the picture(exact same thing with stock cm7 camera at the moment) so hopefully when thise wrinkles get ironed out mui camera should work for cm7 also. *crosses fingers*

Yup thats the same wall i got too with it as well, i then decided its something to do with CM7 and hardware. Its there and working as an app in CM7 just cant access the hardware completely or something along those lines
I like it, but I can't get it to turn off the shutter sound.
as soon as my apt-get update completes on webtop, i'll reboot and test it out on Aura 1.1.3 Build 8 Debloat.
I already have it transferred to system/apps and have fixed permissions, will report back shortly

Ya that's one of settings not functioning atm as well as storage location etc. Hopefully I can get her ironed out so all app settings work. For now though the main functions are working

installed great on Aura, i just plopped the .apk into system/apps
as with the others, shutter tone would not silence, no option to choose storage location, other than that i love it, might be a keeper
Works great on aura. I downloaded the .apk and simply installed it with the package installer! It even saves the picture size that you last selected. Forget the droid one, I like this one.

FFC support and im switching!
I'm glad the the v17_Fixed2 version is working pretty well for you all and if you want to install it using a flashable zip, follow the link in my sig. Also, I'm curious if the v17_TEST1 version I posted HERE works any better for the Atrix. Other phones have been able to switch to and use their FFC as well with TEST1.
I have searched a lot but unable to get a perfect answer. Does anyone knows about this? If you dont know that is working or atleast know about what is not working that would be of great help.
Thanks in advance...
I have been using it daily for about 3 weeks now, and I honestly cant find anything that isnt working besides the camera and multitouch (which doesnt work on any ROM).
Maybe someone else can chime in here, but bottom line the rom is awesome!!

You said that camera and multitouch not working. Is is that camera is not working at all? Please clarify. As far as multitouch I am aware of it.
Everything is working for me and to be honest I am enjoying it more tan I ever thought I would. Not sure what are the problems experienced with camera, mine is working fine. Pictures are not as good as the one taken through Android that I have running off SD, but videos sure are great.
Having problems with XAP... anything because installer doesn't work for me. Both versions supposed to do the same job, in fact. Both claim the phone is either not connected or is locked.
Multitouch works fine for me - pictures are zoomed by pinching etc.
The Camera Issue was common on the HD7 that flash caused a green hue to pictures taken... As for MultiTouch its hit or miss.
For XAP problems in Mango (7720) you need to dev_unlock it using one of the files in Yuki-XBOXMOD CAB Directory that has a long list of cabs for Mango..

Used all the necessary cabs, tools etc - still no go
The camera does have a green hue - tried it last night at the party. Everyone looked like zombies that were dead for some time, haha. Will switch to Android on SD for photos.
- Camera takes greenish shots when using Flash.
- Using the camera button (call button), the camera doesn't focus and just takes the snap leading to blurry snaps. I dunno if this is a WP7 issue or not.
- Video Camera seems to have Continous Focus so in dark scenes it focuses and unfocuses every 10 seconds. Disabling auto focuses removes auto focus completely so thats not an option either.
This is for what I've seen. Its still 99% functional despite all this.
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!

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).

Hi there!
I flashed the ResurrectionRemix rom, but the stock camera app that comes with it does not seem to allow changing the aspect ratio and resolution (we were several people to look into it and did not find the option).
Then, I installed CameraMX, but it bugs a lot with panorama, and cannot switch to front camera (when I click the button to switch, it says on the back camera).
Because, at least in my memories, the stock camera app of the OP5 was near perfect, I'd very much like to install it in place of these 2 bugged camera apps that I have now.
Is it possible to do this?
Thanks a lot!

Use Google camera along with Magisk fix.
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.apk
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/op5fix/
Also use appropriate section for asking questions.
Thanks for the reply! I'm gonna try that
However, am I not in the "apps" forum?
I've been looking for a couple of weeks now and have used quite a few different apks but they all have the same problem.
After taking a picture, the picture shows up in the thumbnail in the bottom right but will not appear in the gallery or Google photos.
They seem to be corrupting when processing HDR and either show up as plain grey or delete themselves.
I've tried clear App Data / Storage as well as different configs but no success
Any working APKS would be appreciated!

I'm starting to think its not a problem with GCAM, rather than with my phone. Not 100% sure what exactly it could be since the stock camera still works fine but yeah.
Maybe use a file explorer and make sure all the "old" data from other gcams is gone. Then start fresh,if you know what I'm saying.
Uninstall any other Gcams.

Glad you been actively trying solutions, like hunting up old files and deleting them.
Try switching HDR through its different On-Off-+ options and see if that matters.
In the settings, make sure camera API 2 is enabled.
Also erase camera data so you can tell which gallery to use, else erase the defaults for your galleries and start cam to see which gallery it uses.
Try all the different gcams one at a time from the celsoazevedo list of arnovag2's cams starting with the newest:

Yes indeed I do. In fact I wrote an update on this subject which I'll post on majzel.blogspot.com on Monday December 23rd. (My original article on gcam was https://majzel.blogspot.com/2019/11/what-i-learnt-about-google-camera.html )
In short XDA seems not to be the forum for Gcam porting. You have to join Telegram and then select the channel relating to 6 and 6T porting.
From there is a set of ports with results and recommendations. To cut to the chase right now, as of dec 20 2019, time 00.01, assuming that you raised your Oneplus 6T to Oxygen OS 10.3.0 (use Oxygen Updater from Play store and install stable not beta)
THEN I'd recommend
use MJL Minikon 2.3-fix3
or Simplecam 4.0.191030.1140-7.0.009
Of course nothing will work right unless you also download and then load your .xml configuration file. Right now on Simplecam I'm using Frctl and on MJL I am using Leica
I've experienced exactly the issues that plague you i.e. takes a photo, but somewhere in processing it hangs, or is not saved. These and other peculiarities are well reported on Telegram

Thanks for this, I'm not actually on Telegram and hadn't used it yet, I'll give it a try and see if there is any more info there.
I am on 10.3.0 and tried your suggested combinations but no luck. SimpleCam actually crashes when I turn off HDR and forces me to clear the storage before I can even open it again.
Once again, thanks for the help guys!

What @amouses seems the best idea.
Find a way to get Telegram and you'll find the in-depth knowledge.
You sure are determined--trying EVERY camera in the list!
Let's get back to some basics--are you running stock?
If not maybe you gotta drop back and see if a camera works.
Got any other mods going on--gotta dump them all temporarily.
At this point, I say back up your important personal data--photos, etc., factory reset your phone, flash latest stock, start off completely fresh, don't install apps or anything until you've tested the most likely working camera.
Take it from there.
Good luck.
Season's Greetings.

Yeah, I was sure one would work, unfortunately not.
I'm running everything stock, with 0 mods on anything, OOS has come far enough for me not to need to root anymore to be honest.
I've been having a few minor bugs and a little lag in chrome once in a while so maybe the upgrade from 9 to 10 didn't go cleanly so I'll try and reset, flash stock etc. When I have some time
