I am on LOS16 and have tried multiple gcams but astrophotography mode seems to not work. Closest i came across is from BSG but it displays around 3 minutes for the capture but terminates under 10 seconds with picture quality that is worse than night sight. I even tried mounting on tripod but still doesn't work. Anybody found a working gcam with astrophotography for mi a1?
nope and there wont be cause of hardware limitations. no need to keep searching!

That's sad, can you please tell what exactly is required on the hardware part for astro to work, thanks for responding.

it needs a better chipset. astro works for 800xx chipsets and not for 600xx

So I bought a used Galaxy Note 3 and am having a massive issue with the camera.
I've rooted this device and have tried every rom in the book
Everything else works 100% however when I try to start the camera app:
1) The camera UI displays but the viewfinder is black.
2) The controls either don't respond at all, or the controls just light up and do nothing.
Any ideas how to remedy this?
Really? 62 views and not a single idea what's happening??

well you don't say which model you have for a start?
have you flashed back to stock to see if it has probs still?
I have the N900W8 model.
I've restored it to stock 4.4.2 and still nothing.
When I use *#0*# and try the camera tests they both just crash the device.

then essentially it should have propper camera drivers.
I suppose it's knox is tripped?
Should not really matter legally in europe if still in warranty period.
did it just suddenly stop?
does it take pictures?
I bought this second hand.
That being said since I've had it, the camera hasn't worked.
Have you ever tried a third party camera app from the play store?

Yep I've tried several.
I should note after restoring 4.4.2 Knox is at 0x0
So managed to get the camera working by taking the phone apart and reseating the camera module.
Now my issue is the camera won't focus properly... lol!
sounds like a hardware issue then ?
Seems that way.
Looks like it is a software issue.
Moved the camera module from my Note 3 into another note 3 and works just fine.
Has something to do with software or the board.
Might help you pin down the cause, or not:
Mine does this after I use a flashlight app for a while (i.e. 2-3 hours.) At some point, the flash LED turns off and won't light up again until I reboot the phone. At this point, all the camera apps (I have 6) do exactly what you experience.
Maybe try a flashlight app, turn it on, off and then try the camera?
You can download test build in here. Thanks for testing, RR already released.

Hey guys!
Need testers for RR-M ROM for your device. Will need to check the operation of the built-in TWRP and the firmware in general. Write about their experiences here.
After that I will release it and for Xperia Z will come out new builds in the future. Yes, your device will officially be maintained by me!
You can download test build in here.
Looking forward to your feedback
Thanks.

Rom is super smooth
No FCs so far
Camera works but it get stucks after capturing a photo
TWRP 3 is working
Internal storage is not detecting in USB mode
I really appreciate your hard work. :good:
Some screenshots are below:
OK, thanks guys. I think it will be released soon =)
About camera: Yes, the capture photos mode needs to be improved. But the fact that the camera works on Marshmallow, it is already a good work (thanks to Otto Juntunen for it).
By the way, the capture photos can works in third-party camera apps such as Camera MX or Camera Pro HD. You can try that.

You are genius, finally we got Camera on MM
Just downloaded it and will report back after using it tomorrow at work etc.
After a night, CPU management seems strange: the temperature varies between 30 ° and 54 ° depending on the processor occupation, without an app is launched (almost idle state)

Will the Google's Camera app work here? Thanks in advance!
Camera works but pictures do not get saved. Tried Snap, Google, MX, FV-5 cameras. Battery life is horrible, 11 mins onscreen time and 6hrs in standby took around 60% battery. Tried modifying camera permissions but didnt do the trick. All in all it is a progress because of the camera but rom is very WIP. Thanks Dev!
The only camera that takes pictures and saves it is the one from Facebook Messenger app. Others that i tried, didn't work. Also, yes, the battery just flies off ...in 5 hours stand by and 1 hour on screen i got 5%.
Bug if is active WakeLocks in Advanced: Wi-Fi random shortly disconnecting after interval 4-10min Wi-Fi ON/2-4sec. Wi-Fi DISCONNECT and RECONNECT.
@Chippa_a can i get a link to your source code please?
I also notice random cuts during conversations (it can cut after 30 seconds or 5 minutes) = network connection is interrupted and returns 2 seconds after (blank network icon for 2 seconds)
Also found out there's no hotspot, the quick settings icon does nothing. Not so important but i just wanted to let you know.
Hi guys, I have been dealing with s8 camera problem for months now and decided to ask before I smash my phone into the wall.
Problem looks simple, I start recording and it randomly stops. Its followed by quick flash(the one that you see when switching the camera on) and looks like camera is restarting. It happens after 2,5, 10 seconds or sometimes doesn't happen at all. I recorded a video of my baby and after 20s I found out that recording stopped and I didn't get anything. I tried to use a camera in safe mode, seems to be working fine there.
Does it mean that some apps interfere with camera app? Also tried cleaning the cache which didn't help. Is there a way to find what apps are causing the issue? Is factory reset best option in my case? I would add that I can see those weird flashes even when I'm not recording and camera is simply switched on.
I would appreciate any help guys. Thank you.
Do you try some other camera apk ?

Yes, they worked fine and didn't have any issues. I would like to use an original app tho because I find it much quicker and less complicated. Wonder if it's maybe related to Samsung cloud sync. I'm just too scared to factory reset lol
So you are saying that U never tried to solve the problem by doing a factory reset? That should be second thing on your list, after restarting. xD
I've been using an Arnova GCAM port that has been great and haven't updated my phone to Pie, but suddenly as of today I can't focus on anything more than about a meter away. I haven't done anything to the software or OS recently but I dropped the phone a few days ago and wonder if I've damaged the camera - would that explain the issue? Switching back to the stock cam doesn't help unless I switch it to portrait mode - that allows better focus at 3 meters or so, which is not good in regular mode. I tried a few different Arnova versions tonight with no improvement. Any suggestions?
The output from Camera2 probe shows the following:
Hardware Level Support Category
√ Level 3
X Full
X Limited
X Legacy
(all ticked in Exposure)
Focus
√ Manual focus
√ Auto focus
√ Auto focus macro
√ Auto focus continuous picture
√ Auto focus continuous video
X Auto focus EDOF
Maybe try to switch to manual mode in stock camera app and then try to adjust focus (from micro to infinity)

I tried that, and over the whole range it only focussed really close (10 - 15 cm away) and the focus didn't change when I moved the slider across; even when focus was set at infinity, only an object close to the camera was sharp. I guess that's a hardware issue then - any ideas?
Did your camera glass broken?

No, it looks fine.
I dont know, it is possible that when you droped it, you jamed auto focus mechanism. Try to factory reset and if even that does not work, take it to service center
After watching quite a few videos on this, I used the technique of tapping/knocking around the camera module to try to loosen up a stuck motor. Eventually this worked! Dropping the camera must have caused something to get stuck, and the tapping allowed that to un-stick.

Nice to read that you have resolved your camera issues.
I reckon your device is still on Oreo and Gcam is still working fine like it always does.
Avoid upgrading your device to pie 9 which is simply atrocious/horrible/buggy.

Yeah, I haven't updated due to the issues I've read about with Pie - everything works now and I can't be bothered waiting for fixes to newer versions.
I attempted to use AR but every app I have installed keeps telling me the OnePlus 8 Pro it is not supported. I have uninstalled arcore, I have also updated arcore to the latest version. I keep being told arcore is not functioning and in other apps I keep getting told the device is not supported.
I've also been experiencing issues with ARCore on my OnePlus 8 Pro, but not exactly the same as you describe it. On my OnePlus 8 Pro, ARCore apps launch fine and they detect my device is ARCore compatible, then it asks me to move my hand around to scan the surroundings. I do this, but my device just stays in this state forever. I have tried it in a really big room, moved my hand, even walked around a bit, but nothing. The device just keeps telling me to move my hand around. This happens on every ARCore app I've tried. I have not been able to successfully see an AR object on my OnePlus 8 Pro

What you describe is exactly what would happen when I tried this on the OP7P. Haven't even bothered with this phone. Just figured it would be something I never have.

This is really disappointing to hear! I was really hoping this ARCore issue was just a software bug that they would fix soon. But since you say it's been an issue since the OnePlus 7 Pro, I don't really have much hope for a fix now

I just upgraded my OnePlus 8 Pro to OxygenOS 10.5.9 European version (IN11BA) and ARCore is now working perfectly on my phone! It starts up almost instantly like it asks me to move my hand around for like 1 or 2 seconds max and then goes into AR mode and displays AR objects

What AR app works for you? I'm on the same firmware ( also EU model ) and no AR app will work for me. Maybe you can point me in the right direction?
Yesterday after 10.5.9 update AR worked for me but today It doesn't work. I noticed AR is working only soon after reboot.

Yep, works just after reboot but later it doesn't. Then needs a new reboot. Must be something related to battery saving or something.
Same thing happened to me...
