Hello, was wondering if anyone here knows if manual long exposure is available on Essential phone camera? If so, is it possible on all latest updated roms etc?
If so was wondering how long? longer than 10 seconds?
I am looking at getting one of these as a backup. Thanks much.

Just got an international G2. Quite surprised to find the camera flash doesn't fire when focusing, only when the picture is taken.
Is this normal?
I'm rooted, stock rom and kernel, only changes are some G2 Xposed settings and fast dormancy disabled in service menu (if it helps to know that)...
Anyone got any info or suggestions? Cheers.

Mine doesn't fire when tapping on the screen to focus (do any smartphone cameras do this? None that I've used do), but it fires after I press the shutter button, and refocuses itself based on that and then gets brighter to actually take the photo.
My D802 doesn't do it, at least on aosp. But my sgs3 on aosp did.

Thanks for the help guys, I guess that clears that up. I've come from a Nexus 4, which does flash while focusing, so I guess my natural instinct was to assume it wasn't working properly. Cheers
hi all!
after updating to 4.4.2 (n9005xxunea2) noticed a very strange phenomena when using camera.
if the sound is on, taking photo makes margins blink and shutter go off.
picture is taken WHEN THE SHUTTER GOES OFF which is ca. 0.5-0.8 sec later then the margins flashing. overal pause of nearly 0.8s is killing me! (yes, my reflexes are that slow, normally 250ms would already piss me off alot)
when the sound is off (no way to switch off in the camera, just put phone into vibration) pic is taken nearly instantaneously. which is the way it's supposed to happen.
...drumroll....
is it me alone?
are there any fixes? ways to circumvent this without switching to vibration every time i wanna take a picture?
i do not have root, neither i wanna trip my knox by rooting right now. to my knowledge there is no safe root for fw>mj4.
i tried couple of 3rd party apps like camera_mx or camera_360. same deal generally. so i guess its a kitkat problem.
i did not try to factory reset the phone because:
1. i am lazy to install back everything even though i have helium backup
2. this is NOT the way proper OS update suppose to happen (imho).
Got the same problem ..... I'm quite pissed off
resets or anything else I did while flashing some ROMs dindn't change anything
Hello,
Does anybody have had a bug with the OnePlus 5's camera where it can't focus anywhere?
This issue happened to me three times, the last two times the camera came back to normal after a few minutes/an hour (the third time is right now while I'm writing here).
Is there any way to fix this bug? This is really bothering me as this can happen when I really need the camera.
To knowledge: I'm not rooted, I'm not using any custom ROM. I'm running oficial Oreo 8.0 and this bug happens with any app which uses the camera beyond the stock camera.
Hi all,
Is it a known bug or problem with LG G6 running Oreo, that if you take a photo with the stock camera app, but don't wait long enough for the save to complete and switch from the camera to another app, that your photo will never be saved and just discarded?
I can totally reproduce this behavior very predictably, just take a picture, then swipe up and press the circle button to bring up the desktop, then check the gallery and there is no record of the photo having been taken, it's just like you never took the photo. It kind of sucks that you have to "baby" the phone if you take pictures and want to quickly switch to another app to share the picture. I don't recall the phone behaving this way before Oreo.
Just to be safe I did a factory reset and yes the phone predictably behaves this way, where you need to just sit and wait in the camera app until the photo is fully committed to storage, and only then can you switch to another app. Apologies if this is a well-known bug but I wanted to hear other's experiences with how to best deal with this annoyance.
I tried it with my Verizon LG G6 and got the picture every time! Wondering what is different between the Sprint and Verizon versions?
Even my LG G2 did that on Lineage OS. No idea why.
So I'm going to guess it may be Oreo related.
Hello to all,
After my Galaxy S10+ Exynos updated to Android 12 One UI 4.0, the camera recording video started to get some sort of lag or image "freezes" (it's hard to explain, English is not my main language) using a FHD 60 resolution and the video stabilizer and HDR turned on. The video recordings used to be completely smooth with these settings before the update.
I would like to ask all of you if any one is having the same problem, or if can anyone test these settings so I can try to figure out if this is an update limitation or anything else.
Tips beside factory reset will also be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance and really hope someone can help me.
Cheers to all,
Flávio
