Google camera on Android 10 - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

Hi, I had an old side-loaded GCam APK that worked great up until Android 10. It now crashes post the OS update. Can someone suggest an APK that works on Android 10? I am full stock and not rooted. Thank you!

I'm installing this now:

Still can't take a picture from within the Hangouts App. Have to take the picture using the camera and then send it from Hangouts.

This one was suggested to those of us in the Essential PH-1 Development group on Telegram by a member who had tried it and it worked for him and it seems to work on Android 10 as well.

My mom has an essential phone on stock. She is currently updating it (finally) to Q. She has always complained that the stock camera app is blurry when taking pics while zoomed in (but not when zoomed out). Is this a known common issue and of it is do any of the GC ports address this?

Why stock camera crashes when usin gcam on mi a2

im on cm 14.1 and flashed the stock GAPPS and camera and video work fine for me
I'm not able to access my downloads, screenshots and other media files using apps like whatsapp, Snapchat etc,. But I'm able to access the ones that got saved before I switched to this rom. I didn't have this issue on resurrection remix or the other stock ones. Weird.

Wrong thread. Post in the CM14.1 thread instead. You will get more support there.

those users who came from marshmellow based custom rom to this nougat based rom are facing some problems like yours and other problems like not able to set fingerprint lock for multiple fingers ( more than one ).
i flashed this rom after updating to the nougat soak test version and other users who did this are not facing much issues. one more thing this rom is still under alpha stage so we shoult be patient bcoz the developers are working on it

I flashed it the same way. From the Nougat soak test only.. :/
Anyway, I don't mind living with this as long as the updates can fix it. Have any idea about that?

Best nougat Rom , With ColorOS Camera.

Hello friends, I have been looking for some rom with the possibility of using ColorOS camera with its plugins.
I have been watching and reading several posts where some roms are discussed, where you can use ColorOS camera.
I would like to know if you know some Rom Nougat with good development where you can use it.
I currently have cm14.1 25/12 the last update and the camera works partially, the plugins do not
Thank you very much
Sorry for my english (google translate (K))
I tried on Nitrogen Os,got fc.
I hope someone who tried on other N ROMs could help us.
Also on Resurrection Remix
Camera open and no problem but plugins can't work
On Omni Rom they said it's support ColorOs but I didn't try it yet
try Darkobas 7.1.1 it has color os cam
link : here
ColorOS camera sadly does not work perfectly with Nougat.
I use-
[ROM][OFFICIAL][7.1.1_r6][BACON][OPTIMIZED]RESURRECTION REMIX [5.8.0]
&
[UPDATE][MOD]CameraNextMod[Based on Cyanogen OS 13 CameraNext](Denoise Feature)

Do you use it as a daily driver? I'm backing everyting up to make the switch from CM due to obvious reasons but I want to make sure I'm picking the most stable rom out there that's also 7.1
Currently using Nitrogen OS (2017/01/08), 4.0.1.c7-00013 firmware, reporting zero issues with ColorOS 2.67+camera+change.zip flash. I do not flash the CM_HAL_MOD.zip.
Hope that helps!

Ok one more question. When I flash the rom, will it be pre-rooted, or will it give me the option to do so. I personally don't want a active root on it due to certain apps I use that automatically don't work if the phone is rooted.

Sorry but probably last question. Which GAPPS should I go for to also get full functionality like the Google assistant and such. So far I tried flashing the ARM Stock but it seems to get an error and not install. Something about insufficient storage in the System Partition.

Mini is the maximum size of Gapps I guess supported by this ROM. After flashing just install 'get assistant' app from play store for Google assistant, I think in the next build the ROM has out of box Google assistant so need for a hack.

So I got the GAPPS installed. Getting a smaller version worked just fine. But I still have an issue with the iSu program. I got the apk and I installed that, but disabling Root in the app still didn't allow me to launch my app. I tried reading through the instructions but they aren't very clear, more specifically if i should also disable SELinux and what those zip files are and how to install them which are the: iSu_kernel_Reboot_Support_V_2_x_and_up_Enforcing
iSu_kernel_Reboot_Support_V_2_x_and_up_Permissive

I have two questions:
- if I install this camera, the old one will be deleted?
- could I get some issues by updating to Oreo when it will be supported?

Hey, are you on LOS 15.1 Unofficial? I tried the ROM around 2 weeks ago. I cant make any calls as the dialer freezes, requiring a reboot. Also randomly the system UI restarts. How is your experience with the ROM? Thank you.
