Switching from Custom ROM to Stock ROM - Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers

I'm currently using the latest build of Arrow OS on ZE520KL. But since there are a lot of camera issues and stock ASUS Camera doesn't work, I want to revert to the latest Oreo stock firmware. How do I do it? Can it be done with TWRP?
It'd be great if you could suggest a great ROM in which the stock ASUS Camera works as well as GCam

PixelMaster from Play Store works fine. But I'm talking about the stock one with Manual, HDR Pro, etc. You can find the apk in the Lineage OS 15.0 thread. Only video recording and manual mode works. Rest all causes the camera to force close

google camera for op2

hey bros, does enyone knows how to make google camera work on custom roms?
usually it just works on most custom roms... have you tried just flashing it with a gaps package that includes it? that should work. but then again, I've never had an issue with it when I installed it from the playstore either. it should work with no issues. Did you check to make sure all the correct permissions are set for it? if permissions aren't correct it will force close
Having the same issue on RR official. App requests permissions, once you have given them it crashes and crashes again whenever you load it up.

The solution is in the post above yours. Stop seeking...
As another user said before, this one should work:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...era-4-1-006-126161292-2-android-apk-download/
okey, so 4.1 version works indeed, but why newer versions don't work?
i would recommend you to flash STOCK GAPPS along with Any ROM which will replace the default camera application in the ROM to the Google Camera one which you can update later from the Play store itself

The google camera which is pre installed works well.But every time I update the google camera from Play Store it just force close.
Latest Google Camera versions do not work because they require camera HAL3:
https://source.android.com/devices/camera/camera3.html
Seems like no one has so far managed to get HAL3 working properly on custom OP2 Nougat roms. Devs have tried to enable HAL3 multiple times on OP2 roms, but have always reverted back to HAL1. In case of HAL3, the photos in portrait orientation are scrambled, and some apps have focusing issues. The most important benefit of HAL3 is the support of capturing RAW images. Other benefits include better photo sphere support, etc.
Latest HAL3 enabled rom release I know of is RR 5.8.2 from 25.02:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862705912
On that one the latest Google Camera 4.3 works, but portrait orientation pictures are messed up. Also RAW image colors are screwed up in OP Cam app.
I hope that the HAL3 issues are fixed after/if Oneplus releases Nougat for OP2, as currently it seems like it is either too difficult for devs to fix it or even impossible.

Another thing: with hal3 you can have also pixel stabilization in video recording, much important

Since OOS3.5.8 sources has been released and OP2 has HAL3 support for quite a long time, do you think some of the custom nougat roms could take this advantage to enable HAL3 supporting? And have you heard anything about it? I want to switch to custom nougat rom but camera functions always make me go back to OOS.

Nope, didn't work.
LineageOS Official works! It seems to be that the ROM must *not* have HAL3.
ressurrection remix official with oneplus 2 camera.all things works fine.
Try Cosmic OS.
Or ViperOS. Only few ROMS's still have HAL1, unfortunately. For some reason everyone says just "need HAL3, it is better", although I haven't seen proof of that. Only problems with it.
Currently running RR Official, HDR works (I think) but panorama still doesn't. It's odd that I have so much difficulty using base features on anything other than stock.
Edit: HDR says its working, but doesn't actually do anything. Tried on OP2 and OP5 cameras. Google Camera force closes.
I'm using Mokee OS with OnePlus 5 camera. Everything works fine.

Weird, that one should work with OP2 original camera zip flashed. I had it for some time, was ok but development stopped, it seems. By the looks of it, soon there will be no HAL1 ROM
go for official aicp rom
Any idea why google camera force closes ? Is there a fix to it ?
I installed the google camera ported to mi note 3 the only issue is ,it doesn't click HDR and HDR+ images (all appear green ) normal can works and video OIS 60fps
AOSPExtended version 4.5 (not the latest one) has working HDR thanks to HAL 1.

Pls recommend best rom with fully google cam support

Any good Gcam for stock Rom?

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.
@Zentom In customs roms 9.0, will it work normally?

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.

Sure! I can't upload over here because of the file size I think but I'll give links.
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

Can you check your front cam resolution, my pictures only come out 2.8MP, not sure why?, i am using evolution-x rom. Also cant get 48MP even with the patch.
I am on the latest Evolution as well and Google Photos is saying front camera pictures are 20 MP, all the back ones are around 12-13 MP but when I use 48M I only get 2,8 MP.

hmm, I just checked in windows and the file is only 1.49mb, 1440x1920 from the front camera. Which Anx packages did you install and how? twrp or magisk? also did you come from the latest xiaomi global rom?
thanks in advance.:good:
I came from 10.3.11 Global (but had LOS installed before) but I just installed the latest version and there I also got 2.8 MP for the front camera. Went back to the version 137 I had installed before.

I just tried 137, still the same for me, can you post the modules you have installed and order and whether it was twrp or magisk, to make 20mp work, I reallly need it before tommorow.
thanks
Sorry, but I have only MIUI Glbal 10.3.11 before Evolution X, flashed using TWRP (not sure which version, I think the russian one).
As for Magisk Modules I have ANXCamera 137, SafetyPatch and 73sydney.gpay. The last two ones are for getting Google Pay to work. But that's it. Nothing special.
I am on Lineageos 16 and have installed several versions of the ANX-camera on my device inluding ANXCustLibs and the Dyneteve48MPFix. The camera works just fine however it shows up in the app-drawer as com.android.camera with a default 'android icon' not the official ANX camera icon. It also replaces the Lineage camera (which is not that good either way). Is this normal? Does anybody else experience the same as I do, where there is no official ANX camera icon and even no app name showing up?

Thanks for sharing your thoughs! Perhaps that could be the solution. Disabling the LOS camera would mean removing the camera all the way, hope it doesn't break the system.
