I have a LenovoPad YT3 with a rotary camera which is great but a required app does not work with it.
This app requires a frontal camera and the tablet does not have a genuine frontal camera.
The developers is the app replied that they cannot change the app.
So I am thinking if someone has a workaround for that.
I saw another post teaching how to switch frontal/rear cameras but this didn't work because the required files are missing on this Android.
It uses Android 6.0.1
I am searching for any possible ideia to solve this issue including: installation of a new firnware, hacking the kernel, hacking the rear camera, hacking the app... anything.
Thank you guys.

Is there finally at least one normal solution to get surround shot mode (aka photo sphere, 360 photo, vr panorama, orb) at samsung galaxy S4 GT-I9505? I want it to work fast, save images to SD card, use samsung camera's drivers.
Stock camera is well, but there is not such mode there. There is easy way to make surround panoramas, but it has some incomfortabilities:
There is Google camera, which has photo sphere mode, but it has poor settings and can only save pictures in internal storage, not on the SD card. Is it possible to make Google's camera to be a "system application" to be possible to write to sd?
Also I have found an easy solution to install apk from here. It is stock camera from google play edition smartphone. It do not requires root. It was for Android 4.2, but apk works normally on Lollipop. It also has poor settings and saves only on intermal storage.
It seems, that for making good pictures the solution (for me for now) is keeping stock camera with its cool features (autofocusing, animated picture, etc) and one of above cameras for spherical shots.
But also I wanted to ask, maybe there is a solution to port one of samsung's devices camera, which has surround mode to galaxy s4? I think that should be good, due to samsung are using specific hardware drivers for their camera and shots should be bettes quality.
I did a discovery about what cameras has such mode.
As I understand, Note 4 camera has no such mode. But Note 3 camera has.
In this thread they say that they ported Note 3 camera to sgs4. But it is for Android 4.4.2. Is it possible to install it on Lollypop? Because in that case I could keep only single camera application on smart phone.
I also tried that s5 camera port on stock lollypop 5.0.1, but it did not worked for me.
As I understand, in s5 and s6 cameras there is surround mode, but you need to separately download it from galaxy apps.
I tryed to install that ROM which include S6 camera, but in Galaxy apps there is no even one application. So is there a way for somebody extract needed apk from Galaxy apps store (by installing on their S6 for example and extract from file system) and publish it for s4 users?
So, exprienced developers, please help.
Since I recieved my Moto G4 Plus I was wondering about the possibility of using in an app the integrated laser on the camera, I tried to find some app which uses It but I do not find anything... I think that it could have an awesome usability, being able to use It, for example, as a night-sight (maybe?) or, at least, as an accurate distance measurement... I don't know, just wondering. In any case, I post my idea just in case any developer wants to try to do something..
same question here ..did ya figure out ? Not sure if even the stock app uses the laser feature or Moto cheated on us and only a small % age have laser
I m specifically looking for ANY working app out there , willing to work with custom ROM where there is a MACRO mode
enabled.
I wasn't able to find a single Camera app with this mode. BTW I am running Havoc 2.9 ROM . All the nice apps like open camera, FV , whatever will show this op missing. I wondered if Camera 2 api would get that in . Not sure but checkin
Also does anyone ever see the laser auto focus working... I dont see any red laser dot. Is that the laser focus only a Privy of Stock Moto Camera app ( cos that app focuses instantly c.f. open camera on G4 plus which takes 10 s to focus - its the same with other similar apps. Someone posted a link to AZ camera.. AZ crashes from A to Z totally.... after spiting out "camera API 2 is not enabled" ..matter of fact ithat Boolean setting is on) ! . You literally have to play "hands in the air" & freeze your subjects with other non Moto apps ...... is this experience pervasive or I am missing some
I have question od someone have profile at 4pda to add latest API for camera. I wanna use raw supported apps like Manualna Camera.
Thanks for aby help.
I don't get how RAW format support is connected to having a 4pda profile. By the way, I tried using this guide and then checking with Camera Zoom FX, but haven't noticed anything. There are also some apps on Play Store that check if you have API2, you can try.
Tester this guide not helped persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 should have ' at have or not? Manual camera not showing support
what is the best camera app this phone should have?
Standard Android camera, A better Camera, Camera360, Camera2, Horizon, UCamera etc.
I Found a perfect camera apk but the UI it's not the best (Cameringo+), works very good but it's time to make a new camera apk because the Lineage OS Camera it's old in this times and i not see a camera that's work good and looks good, my suggestion it's work in new apk with the heart and soul of Cameringo+ but with the look of Footej (Obviously add the button HDR), that's it, only a sugesttion, i know.. Maybe it's very complicated but, it's time to create a new camera apk for the new custom roms.
By the way, I'm sorry if I got into the wrong category to give this suggestion ?
Hi all,
Recently I bought a zhiyun smooth 4 gimbal and that the app of the gimbal does not have permission to use all the lenses. The gimbal is compatible with Filmic Pro, but neither this app can use other lenses than the main one. It is possible to let third party apps use all the lenses of the phone?
Another possibility is to use the gimbal with MIUI camera app. Somebody knows if it is possible to use the buttons on the gimbal with the MIUI camera app? I tried to connect the gimbal manually via Bluetooth but with no luck.
i think the problem is the camera API. i posted this tread a while ago:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/help/fix-camera2-api-to-cameras-camera-apps-t4078935
about the same problem, third party camera apps only see main camera, no wide or tele. because the phone tell the apps it has only one back camera.
only "special" apps circumvent this limitations, like the stock camera app or gcam
maybe a custom rom can shows all cameras properly.

Thank you for your reply. Maybe I will try a custom rom later. But for now I observed that with Filmic Pro the recorded videos are noisy with 24 fps (with higher fps is even worse) than that I observed with the stock camera app. This happens mostly inside where the lighting conditions are not perfect, but still I don't understand from where comes the difference.
Because of this issue, now I'm more interested in using the gimbal with the sock camera app. Even if I can use just the record button on the gimbal is better than to have noisy videos and pictures. But for the moment I could not find anything regarding this.
