[TEST] Camera Auto Focus, your help needed.

Hey guys/gals, while chatting about the constant autofocus on the camera yiancar suggests we try other camera apps.
He installed "fxcamera" and said it has an autofocus toggle. And suggested I try it.
So I download and loaded it, selected the normal camera, it started autofocusing even without tapping the screen or selecting the autofocus toggle.. Making that focus clicking sound.
His does not... I remember there being mentioned somewhere that they were having issues with quality control with the cameras, don't know if this has anything to do with it.
So if you have a chance, could you please download "fxcamera" and test your camera's autofocus and report your findings here? (mention if your unit does or does not auto focus click constantly, which model, and rom version you're on)
Thanks in advance!

Hi clockcycle
My camera does the continuous autofocus only in difficult light situations, for example in a dimmed lecture hall. When I have enough contrast in the picture it just perform the autofocus when I moved the camera/tablet. This happens with the standard camera app and I also tested fxcamera - the same result.
Can you find a light scenario where your constant autofocus stops?

Hey all!
I normal only get one long autofocus unless light is really low (very similar to strahl actually) and fxcamera makes no difference (with autofocus turned off and on)
Thia is from an Adam rooted and running utopia.

Please excuse the awful spelling on the above. I'm too new on this forum to be trusted with the edit button yet!

hi CC,
Just want to report to all that I m using EdenX 2.4 rom which is based on latest NI rom 040811. And in this latest rom NI has fixed the constant refocusing of camera issue. I have tested it and camera stops refocusing after few seconds of delay.
now some hacker/developer might want to take on this.. to help us..to get a toggel switch in camera app for manual and auto options...

@clockcycle I would second whatever strahl's mentioned. Seems to work the same for me too.
On a separate note, one bloke in a thread at tabletrom opened up adam, disconnected the auto focus motor of the camera and he's put up a video after doing it. The camera is now fixed focus and works well for him.

I report 3rd then as someone whose camera will keep focusing in bright areas such as a classroom or when pointed upwards towards any lights.
I can also report that while pointing into dimmer directions the camera stops auto-focusing.
While I think that opening it up and disconnecting the wire is cool, I don't want to have to do that to mine.
What files/drivers work with the camera, can we not just replace the ones that are in the working updates with our current roms?

UMi Super security problem(and other bugs I've noticed)

1) Now, I have enabled the fingerprint scanner and have my phone secured with a pin. But when I swipe down to open the notification bar and press the settings button, it takes me right to the settings.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong..?
(Real point having a pin security and fingerprint scanner when you can still open up the phone without knowing the pin or having your finger scanned in..)
EDIT2: Now the same thing is not working, and I have no idea why it did that..
2) The second thing that pisses me off, is these black bars under some apps. I think some apps(like Snapchat, see the Imgur link) think that I've enabled the virtual buttons. I think this is a bug.

3) Not sure if this should be under bugs, but like the recycle bin button makes switching between apps really awful, it has a 5.5" screen and I'm struggling between switching apps. (see Imgur link)

EDIT:
4) When on youtube, some videos don't have the HD option. When I head to my PC and open up the video, I can switch between up to 144p and 1080p, but some videos have like 480p maximum. But some videos have 1080p. Not sure why this is like that..
I haven't experienced any other problems or bugs(besides the focus bug in camera app, but it's a pretty known problem). Overall, the phone is really great. No lags(I've been only using it for a day now). It does overheat when charging and using the phone, but since it has a quickcharge charger, it's okay I think. Loving the LED light. Build quality is 10/10 - ign.
Anyone else having these problems?
Should I report them and to where? Is there a place where I can contact the developers?

Which is the best GCam Mod for AZMPM1?

I tried a ton of different GCam mods but faced the same issue with each one. After taking a couple o Portrait shots, the shutter button gets greyed out. I have to restart the phone in order to make it work again.
Any other GCam mod that doesn't have this issue?

Command prompt se ek bar fir se camera2api enable kr do. It'll work flawlessly then.

S10+ camera focus issue

I recently got the new Samsung S10+ 1TB phone and every time I take a picture, the photo comes out blurry or out of focus, even when the object isn't moving. I have even restarted my phone as a Samsung technician recommended. I have also installed the Google Pixel camera app from another post and that has less issues. Any one found a fix or have the same issues with the native camera program in the Samsung S10+?

Which application installed ? all work for me is not stable(((
I have Exynos 9820

Stock. I didnt chang anything. I ended up download gcam and open cam. They have no issues.

Native camera doesn't appear to focus all the time on my S10+, but that's just one issue. My scanner rarely works. I'm gonna ask if BB can exchange mine...

For the finger scanner i rotated my finger around at strange angles and it works great for me.

Same

I am having this issue with the front facing camera.
9 out of 10 times I try to take a selfie or use face unlock, the front camera won't focus.
The only quick solution I have found is to tap on the lens glass once or twice. After that the camera will work correctly, but only for a short while, after which I have to repeat tapping in the front camera glass.
I'm guessing the camera module is defective.

I can't get my S10+ that I bought straight from AT&T to focus on close up things at random times when I need to take a pic of like a nail or something. Not sure the S10 has it, but there used to be a macro mode on the S3 and S4 that made this a lot easier.

Record video with back and front camera at the same time

Hi. I came from Samsung Galaxy S7. It had a neat feature recording (or taking pic) from front and back camera at the same time. Is it possible with oneplus 6t?
Tried with linuxct Nokia camera, but getting FC when entering such mode
