Hello guys) How to enable Camera2 API?) Custom ROMs (MIUI, CM, etc)
1) Root!
2) Open build.prop, make string 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1' , save, reboot.
3) Check manual features by Manual Camera Compability utility.
4) Install FV-5, Manual Camera etc and enjoy by manual exposure,focus etc)
It's working on my xiaomi.eu latest MIUI7 and Mookee ROMs)
p.s. I have Snapdragon version, pls test on the MTK who have this devices.
Thanx to Nevio (4pda.ru) )))
BUG! Stock camera in MIUI7 crashed with this feature. MIUI8 is normal.

Ok, thank you!
I enabled camera 2 api and I am experiencing a crazy battery drain with mokee ROM. Is it normal? The battery drops 10 % in a matter of 10min and the phone gets really hot
How many of the manual settings stated in the manual camera compatibility app are supported after enabling camera2 api?

But RAW pictures are buggy on our phone, atleast on my phone
Edit: I had 3 reboots within a short time while opening camera apps since I've edited the build.prop. I'm on official RR, but the camera2 features are working fine (except raw), thanks for sharing!

How to know its working? And which camera app to use after editing the build prop?

Camera fv-5, snap cam (from play store), open camera and a lot others, they have to support camera2 api. On some camera apps you have to enable it manually in the settings. Then you can control shutter speed and some other things. I've attached also a picture, on the left side the shutter speed is short and on the right side the shutter speed is a lot longer. So for "normal" pictures you won't need manual controls, but in some cases it can be useful.

Can u plz show the ss of build prop after the edit? And the settings in any camera app?
Thanks for the guide.....this has solve the problem of reboot while using third party camera apps......google camera is also working without any problem
At least. MANY DIGITAL COOKIES TO THE OP. This was a thing that I was asking before even buying the phone. Many thanks to the OP.
Hmm I am using Snap Camera with camera2 API. Best thing) But it's need to activate camera2 in the Snap Camera settings (menu--"other"tab--go down and check Camera2 API string). Nice manual focus and manual settings in the HDR mode) Snap camera may a RAW format. There opens in built-in viewer and (who installed) can be pen into Snapseed editor.
Example of the photo in HDR mode with manual settings) Sorry for my curved hands and academical English)))
My curved hands cannot make good man ual photos yet)) Who knows Russian - you can check 4pda.ru forum--Redmi Note 3 Pro Camera branch. http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=750102&st=860 Many people tested this hint and VEEEEERY pleasured)))
Hello every one! Hope you're having a great day
I'm here because I need your help To make a long story short, until I can save enough to buy a new proper camera, I'm stuck with my P9 Lite, which cannot save pictures as RAW/DNG files. This feature is provided by Google's Camera2 API, which my phone doesn't have/support. Four questions:
1. Is it possible to install Camera2 API on my phone, through a custom ROM?
2. Is it possible to install a custom ROM without losing on the initial image quality provided by my phone's camera?
3. In theory, could this API be enabled by a future software update? Or does it only have to do with how the phone was originally conceived?
4. Even if I managed to get the API on my phone, would it be possible to make it fully supported, and would I be able to save RAW/DNG files even if my phone originally doesn't offer this option?
Thank you very much!
P.S: I've never thought of "flashing" a custom ROM on my phone, this issue is the only reason why I'm considering it. As you may have noticed by my way of explaining things, I'm a five year old when it comes to informatics, and I'd probably be the first in line to buy Smartphone Software For Dummies. As much as I admire how technical and specialised you can get about a science that goes way beyond my understanding abilities, if you can keep things slow and simple, as if you were talking to an actual five year old, I'd be very grateful

Can't you just install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera on stock ROM? I think the camera2 api should be available.
Thank you for replying! The application supports Camera2 API, but if the API is not available on my phone in the first place, I don't think the application will work...According to my researches, the API is like, let's say, a camera: if your phone doesn't have a camera, you could install as many camera apps as you want, your phone still won't take any pictures...What I need is a way to add a camera to my phone - in our case, the API - so that I can start taking pictures - in our case, saving RAW/DNG files. Also, I might be wrong.

So the app doesn't work? I can't test it cause I am not on stock.
Just tried open cam on stock rom and I can capture RAW dng files, so it seems like camera2 is supported try it out!
UPDATE: Enable "Use alternative flash method" in photo settings if it won't take pictures when camera2 is enabled.
Open camera is pretty buggy on this phone when shooting RAW. Try "Footej camera", seems to work better
yaa but for footej need to pay to have fully featured. I payed for this but for m there is no diference to open camera.
I didn't say that Footej is better than open camera. Just that open camera often bugs for me when using camera2 - eg nothing happens when pressing camera button.
Sry for reviving the thread, is there any way to increase max shutter speed in camera2 api? I'm really interested in shooting some raw stuff but apps like Opencamera or Adobe Lightroom won't allow me to set over 1 second shutter speed (apart from the built-in camera app that allows up to 8 secs, but without raw support...) so it's a pain in the butt if I want to take raw pictures at night.
Using the stock Marshmallow Emui
The Lightroom app has a built in camera which can shoot RAW, I tried it and it works flawlessly.
Camera API2 *IS* present on p9 lite and *DOES* work.

Yup it does, but shutter speed cannot be set over 1 second (see the screenshot), that means night photos end up being very noisy since I need to drastically increase iso. The default camera app allows much longer shutter time, that's why I'm wondering what's wrong
If it was possible to set it to like 10 secs in the Lightroom app, the camera would be damn great

I Know This Is Quite Old But In Case Someone Is Still Wondering;
I'm Using Stock Nougat Firmware On My P9 Lite And It Does Support Raw Format, But You Have To Root The Phone And Enable Raw/DNG Format In Some System Files
I have created a Magisk based DIY GCAM port for our 10's. Basically, it installs everything you need for it to work, and you try/select whatever GCAM you think works the best. All this will do is enable the extra features for GCAM
***SLOMO NOT WORKING ON OREO FOR ME***
Prerequisites:
2.xx.xxx.xx Nougat Stock sense, not sure about LOS or others (you can try, no guarantees).
3.xx.xxx.xx Oreo Stock sense, not sure about LOS or others (you can try, no guarantees).
Magisk 15.0 or newer (Uses 1500 template)
No Other GCAM installed (remove any prior to flashing magisk module)
REMEMBER TO SET ALL SETTINGS AND FC ONCE BEFORE USE!!!!!
What it does:
It replaces media_profiles.xml in system/etc : this allows for HEVC and 60fps
Oreo Version
It adds ARCore and ARStickers to system/app
It sets ro.config.calibration_cad=/system/etc/calibration_cad.xml
It adds res_ctrl.conf to system/etc
it updates all the various .xml files that have media settings within them
This is a free-for-all zip, meaning i dont care if you modify it, pass it off to other groups, help anybody else, etc.
I am not responsible if you get your phone messed up, it works for me, and for others. I will help as much as i can. Its a work in process, hopefully, it will make life easier for everybody. This is really close to being a DD, i will try other GCams as i find time. Im really waiting for Oreo on VZW, then ill really get into it. (AR Stickers, etc.)
Also, this is a HTC 10 thread, and while i dont mind helping people (I want everybody to have a working GCAM) this magisk module, especially the media_profiles.xml is very very very 10 specific. You can however, do the legwork, use this zip as a template, and make one for your threads/personal use as well. And i dont mind. Just dont come in here without a logcat with some phone that's not a 10 and say its broke. I will at least look at a logcat and help if its not a 10, but my demands have been expressed.
Also, for those with a 10.. Dont come in here and tell me its broke, not tell me anything relevant, have no logcat, and expect a fix...you will be meme flamed for my amusement...You have been warned. You should know better at this point!!!
Thanks
@Arnova8G2 Porting Gcam over to us, and listening to our needs

Changelog/Bugs:
DIY GCAM MODS: Everything but GCAM, Pick the one you like the best and use this mod to get the extras to work.
V31: Version back to 2 revs. 1: Skulshady V3.0, portrait works (6p or pixel 2017 zsl hdr +, that one has low light bug still), Tolyan009 v1.3.5, portrait doesnt work, more options (needs alot of configuration, pixel 2, 2017 pixel zsl hdr+ new, black level 64, hdr+ control on, turn off use google photos in debug settings)
V30: Oreo and Nougat: Added HEVC Back in, Removed Lens (Built into photos now), some people say slomo works in oreo now, you tell me Uses Arnova V7B6 Camera...too bad it's junk......
V28: Cleaned up media_profiles_vendor.xml and added HEVC support. (Slo-Mo at least loads the viewfinder now, getting warmer )
V24: Low Light/Flash Bugs fixed, increase sharpness might be better, still no slo-mo
V23: Same oreo bugs
v8 Nougat: Updated to arnova pixel2mod v6b14, probably the last good one
v8 Oreo: Initial release, has b14, and AR stickers, need someone to test it on oreo.
v7: 99.98% works, only "little" bug is if you take a low light/room is completely dark photo (front and rear), very rarely, but sometimes the camera app crashes.
v1: Initial release
Bugs: No front HDR, Slo-mo crashes went set to 240fps (120 is fine), can only take picture with hdr+ enhanced on for rear, view finder is a little slow for portrait mode rear.
V28: To ease confusion, 6P works with everything it appears, 2017 Pixel HDR ZSL has some issues in low/no light still (wanna help, PM @tsalta )
V24: Either works i believe
V23: I use nexus6P, you can use pixel 2 as well
v8: Use nexus 6P, it all works, you can use 2017 pixel zsl HDR+, but it will FC in dark/no light using flash.
How to modify the zip for your a new gcam:
1. uninstall gcam mod
2. reboot
3. Install gcam of your choosing
4. using root browser, copy directory from data/app containing google camera directory.
5. take the contents of that folder, copy the contents to the zip file, in system/app/GCAM, replace the contents in there.
6. reflash zip with new gcam
thank for share

Hello dude i see you are starting like you sayd befor im just wondering what version you used like a base?
Arnova 1.6 or maybe 1.2 ?
Just wondering
Thanks for the Share will test it now!
Edit: Yes 1.6 i guess or perhaps 1.7 but the feel is like more 1.6
Yes this is the most stable build with all the options that we can have the only one thing we gona miss is the Pixel 2017 HDR+ ZSL the ZSL works only with this presets and since the new versions it doesnt work anymore the last time was worked fine on V 1.2

well i can take pictures with HDR+ and HDR+ Enhchanced from the Back camera so it is working fine not bug.
Also the Front HDR+ is working what i mean is it is made to work only In portrait MOD so when you shoot Portrait with the Front and you have HDR+ portrait camera enabled will get the effect this is how the build is mean to work so you can remove this from the Bugs it is not actually a bug.
Slow mo crashes on stock Oreo
And also 60fps does not work

Arnova 1.7 beta 1
It will only take pics on hdr+ if it decides hdr should be used. If you turn hdr off, it won't work.
Yea, I'm aware of the work around for front hdr+. But you can't just have hdr+ on the front camera in normal mode. So it's a bug still until we find a better alternative camera that works.
You can be the tester @tsalta if you like. I explained how to put different GCAMS in the magisk zip, so you can find the perfect version.

Yes im planing to make one version same with 1.6 because 1.6 is more stable than 1.7 beta ad 1.7 in 1.6 will take pictures always with HDR+ or Enchanged whatever you want from the back camera.
and i think 1.6 is one idea faster no freeze slownes on the viewfinder
Los Ron (rr), HDR working, portrait mode too, but slow motion mode not
Thanks anyway)
@aer0zer0 i was planing to make another version but after alot of test the most stable build that work is 1.7 Beta 1 so thanks for the share.
I mean compared to the Other builds that have Portraid mode if not 1.2 is the most stable
Like ive sayd many times every build have some advantage and dissadvantages for example 1.2 is super fast and stable also has working Pixel config with ZSL in other hand do not have POrtrait
Well above 1.6 they have everything but the pixel config is not working and no ZSL at all.
Also i have some other builds that are Not Arnova diferent from different russian sites and i had the best Front + HDR+ mod and take amazing HQ selfies but only this is the advantage of the mod.
if we have somehow to make a mix like frankenstain from the mods we know who is best and work perfect to make One build that include all the things.
Thanks for the Magisk Module.

Yes it is media Profile xml i never ever had Slow Mo to work no matter of the presets in best case just freeze and i found out that this heppand only in Viper Magisk ROM people who are with Lee Droid v 4 have Slow Mo working so im pretty sure its ROM related and thats why i leave it thats way i get tired of trying to fix it and just waiting the OREO.
@tsalta have you tried older builds, like in the 1.4s I would sacrifice portrait mode for clean front and rear camera implementation. The 10 was my daily driver till I got a essential phone mid September. So I haven't messed with it much. Are the bsg versions any good?

You have to add Google's preset media configs to media_profiles.xml that's how it works. 240 fc, since the sensor can't handle it.

I have the google preset for the slow motion but same the viewfinder freezes imideately when i press slow motion.
Anyway in the Magisk version u provide you have media profile xml with the settings and is the same if you have another idea how to add this google media configs let me know or write me them here to chek what i have now to see if they differ.
About the Gcam Mods.
I tested all of them by all i mean even builds that are not even listen on XDA.
for me Arnova 1.2 is one of the best for us because its fast and all HW levels are added to support level 3 so we HTC 10 users and many other devices that have and can handle camera 2 api have HW level 3 support.
In the 1.2 Bold Red build from Arnova even the Pixel 2017 ZSL HDR+ preset work in all conditions i never had a single crash there shooting day and night, the only one downside is that there is no Portrait MODE.
Another info like i mentioned befor i had one Build if you wish will upload it that it has the Most amazing fron Shooter with HDR+ it is based on BSG build but edited by some Russian folk from 4pda i used this mod only because of the front facing camera a slefie is about 5 mb in size Crisp and clear like you shoot it with back camera.
Other than that one of my Favorite as well is the ArtZ based Mod that is Pixel based Version 2.
Have everything working ZSL all is set to use Pixel configs have a Portrait Mod working and so on.
The only problem with this build is like i explain several times befor shooting in the dark when there is not Object to focus the app force crash it is somthing related to the Focus plus the Flash it is like the Flashligh do not work properpy in synhron with the Focus and the HDR+
but for a day and good light photos i got the best pictures with this ArtZ MOD.

Try this out just set up the camera on 1st run for Max Quality and shoot with the Front Camera in Good Light condition.
If we have somehow to see what settings use this apk for the front to implement in the 1.7 regular front will be Awesome.

for me Arnova 1.2 is one of the best for us because its fast and all HW levels are added to support level 3 so we HTC 10 users and many other devices that have and can handle camera 2 api have HW level 3 support.
In the 1.2 Bold Red build from Arnova even the Pixel 2017 ZSL HDR+ preset work in all conditions i never had a single crash there shooting day and night, the only one downside is that there is no Portrait MODE.
Another info like i mentioned befor i had one Build if you wish will upload it that it has the Most amazing fron Shooter with HDR+ it is based on BSG build but edited by some Russian folk from 4pda i used this mod only because of the front facing camera a slefie is about 5 mb in size Crisp and clear like you shoot it with back camera.
Other than that one of my Favorite as well is the ArtZ based Mod that is Pixel based Version 2.
Have everything working ZSL all is set to use Pixel configs have a Portrait Mod working and so on.
The only problem with this build is like i explain several times befor shooting in the dark when there is not Object to focus the app force crash it is somthing related to the Focus plus the Flash it is like the Flashligh do not work properpy in synhron with the Focus and the HDR+
but for a day and good light photos i got the best pictures with this ArtZ MOD.

Try this out just set up the camera on 1st run for Max Quality and shoot with the Front Camera in Good Light condition.
If we have somehow to see what settings use this apk for the front to implement in the 1.7 regular front will be Awesome.

Works perfect here, what rom are you on?
So I am on stock EUI and decided to enable camera2 api by editing build prop. After rebooting, I noticed most of the features are limited.
4K video is disabled.
SLR (or portrait mode) is not working.
Some apps that uses camera2 api malfunctions.
GCam cannot connect to camera and then FC.
Manual Camera can't display realtime camera, and most probably can't take photos as well, tho the parameter readings suggests camera2 api is enabled as well as others (RAW, MANUALS).
Are these fixable?

You can't use HAL3 in EUI. If you want to use HAL3 , then flash Pie roms. But Stock cam will not work.
?
Okay...new to xda....
I own an OnePlus 6T and I have installed GCam 6...it's working fine...but i have a couple of doubts tho'
1. Camera2 API is not level 3 for op6t...should i enable it by editing build.prop?
2. What are those front cam options? and how does it affect the photo?
3. Does portrait mode work only for faces and not for objects in GCam?
