Ok, thank you!

I enabled camera 2 api and I am experiencing a crazy battery drain with mokee ROM. Is it normal? The battery drops 10 % in a matter of 10min and the phone gets really hot

How many of the manual settings stated in the manual camera compatibility app are supported after enabling camera2 api?

But RAW pictures are buggy on our phone, atleast on my phone
Edit: I had 3 reboots within a short time while opening camera apps since I've edited the build.prop. I'm on official RR, but the camera2 features are working fine (except raw), thanks for sharing!

Camera fv-5, snap cam (from play store), open camera and a lot others, they have to support camera2 api. On some camera apps you have to enable it manually in the settings. Then you can control shutter speed and some other things. I've attached also a picture, on the left side the shutter speed is short and on the right side the shutter speed is a lot longer. So for "normal" pictures you won't need manual controls, but in some cases it can be useful.

Can u plz show the ss of build prop after the edit? And the settings in any camera app?

Thanks for the guide.....this has solve the problem of reboot while using third party camera apps......google camera is also working without any problem

At least. MANY DIGITAL COOKIES TO THE OP. This was a thing that I was asking before even buying the phone. Many thanks to the OP.

Hmm I am using Snap Camera with camera2 API. Best thing) But it's need to activate camera2 in the Snap Camera settings (menu--"other"tab--go down and check Camera2 API string). Nice manual focus and manual settings in the HDR mode) Snap camera may a RAW format. There opens in built-in viewer and (who installed) can be pen into Snapseed editor.
Example of the photo in HDR mode with manual settings) Sorry for my curved hands and academical English)))
My curved hands cannot make good man ual photos yet)) Who knows Russian - you can check 4pda.ru forum--Redmi Note 3 Pro Camera branch. http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=750102&st=860 Many people tested this hint and VEEEEERY pleasured)))

Whats the best camera app for A7

Currently just trying out open camera, is this the best? Clearly the ZTE camera software is terrible, the image processing looks like its been handled by my 1985 Casio calculator.

Hi. I've been using this, much more controls/settings. Even turned on HDR. NO ADS EITHER!
Open Camera is a fully featured and completely free Camera app for Android phones and tablets. Features:
* Option to auto-stabilize so your pictures are perfectly level no matter what (see example image).
* Expose your camera's functionality: support for focus modes, scene modes, color effects, white balance, ISO, exposure compensation/lock, face detection, torch.
* Video recording (including HD).
* Handy remote controls: timer (with optional voice countdown), auto-repeat mode (with configurable delay).
* Option to take photo remotely by making a noise (e.g., voice, whistle), or by voice command "cheese".
* Configurable volume keys.
* Optimise GUI for left or right-handed users.
* Zoom via multi-touch gesture and single-touch control.
* Option to lock orientation to portrait or landscape for photo or video. Upside-down preview option for use with attachable lenses.
* Choice of save folder (including support for Storage Access Framework).
* Disable shutter sound.
* Overlay a choice of grids and crop guides.
* Optional GPS location tagging (geotagging) of photos and videos; for photos this includes compass direction (GPSImgDirection, GPSImgDirectionRef).
* Apply date and timestamp, location coordinates, and custom text to photos; store date/time and location as video subtitles (.SRT).
* Yes you can take a selfie (also known as front camera), includes support for "screen flash".
* Support for (some) external microphones.
* Widget to automatically take a photo after launching.
* Support for Camera2 API: manual focus distance; manual ISO; manual exposure time; RAW (DNG) files.
* Support for HDR and Exposure Bracketing (Camera2 only).
* Dynamic range optimisation mode.
* Small file size.
* Completely free, and no ads in the app

Since ZTE did not implement Camera2 support, third pary apps do not handle it well. The only good option is the native camera app. Image processing is bad yes, but if you care about your photos, shoot them in RAW and do the processing yourself. That can get you some impressive results, on par with the hardware really. Hopefully the next update will fix the autofocusing problem.

How do I shoot in Raw mode on this thing?
I'd rather have a larger file size but a better result.

If you are on the US version of the phone, go to manual mode, settings and enable raw. (you have to shoot in manual mode but can leave all settings auto). If your device is the A2017G version or you use a custom rom, you would have to flash the US camera app from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/themes/zte-camera-flashable-zip-t3553638
Or, if you cannot flash, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until the G version implements the american camera improvements.
I'm not sure what the situation is with the chinese version of the device

Flashing the camera zip won't bring raw support on G devices running marshmallow/nougat roms for G devices...
I think it's a kernel-dependent feature. There's so little information about this...I'm waiting for nougat just for this, but I don't want to lose Xposed either

Oh ok. I assumed it would work on Nougat stock rom, if flashed. It does work on LineageOS A2017G

You assumed something and I assumed something else. I hope I'm wrong. I just found it very weird that no one said anything about it working/not working

Well, I'm not rooted, and have no plans to currently, so maybe raw mode will come at some point.
If not.....I'll live with it.

You don't need to root the phone to install TWRP and flash the zip. But you do need to unlock the bootloader.

Yep, I know
I've done all that in the past, flashing ROM after ROM.
I totally understand why people do it, I was one of them....it's just that's all gone for me now, just want to use the phone.
I'll sideload and apk, but that's about it for me now

Mike did you try it? I'm gonna try one of them. My major problem is when I take a photo in a WhatsApp chat, it opens ok and takes the pic, but then freezes for a while on the photo. If I hit back or try to type or select a function, nothing​ happens. However the home and recent apps keys work. Actually if I snap the pic then hit recent apps right away then reselect WhatsApp, I can immediately use tools or type. Makes no sense to me, but maybe someone can tell what's happening. For now will try one of the suggested apps.

Possible Camera2 API bug.

Hello, all!
This is a little specific, but I was hoping that perhaps other LG G6 users could help me test for this problem to figure out whether it's affecting all the phones/firmwares or is specific to mine.
Basically what happens is that in any camera app, except the native one, if you use specific manual settings (so, through the Camera2 API) there's a bug that changes the value on its own. Perhaps the easiest way to check it is using Open Camera:
1) Switch to video mode (camera choice does not matter).
2) Pick the exposure icon, set ISO to 50 and shutter speed to 1/20
3) Start recording video...
4) On my device after 5-10 seconds of recording the screen turns black (or nearly black) as the exposure speed drops to ~1/10000.
Touching the screen to refocus fixes it for a moment, then it jumps back to ~1/10000.
Basically ISO50, shutter range 1/20-1/30 will cause this. I have seen this in any app that allowed manual settings, like Open Camera, ProShot, Hedgecam 2, AZ Camera, Footej camera etc. Some of them turn black, others just crash/freeze. Sounds like an API bug to me.
I'm on Android version 8.0.0, Software version: V20c-EUR-XX installed through OTA.
Would really appreciate if someone could also try this.

My minimum shutter speed is 1/30... This with stock camera........ Stock oreo by OTA v20c.
No problem with recording.

Thanks for taking the time to check, but the stock camera works ok. It's the others that have this problem. Like Open Camera or HedgeCam2. The reason I want to use those is they recently added an option to change image processing (noise reduction, edge enhancement) so if you turn those down and film video with them you actually get nice, natural looking video and not the overprocessed watercolor look that the stock camera (and most other apps) provide. And if we go for a "cinematic" 24fps look then the Shutter speed could often be 1/24 or so.
Since I have seen some threads looking for a way to get cleaner video I'll attach two snapshots from a video - one with stock camera (and those crazy cartoon edges) and another from HedgeCam 2.

UPDATE from Google
Camera Go helps you capture beautiful images, fast.

• Capture memories at any time of day without the flash, keep the colours rich and details crisp using Night Mode.
• With smart storage features and early warning notifications, Camera Go makes sure you never miss a moment by helping you free up space for your photos when you need it most.
• With Google Lens built into Camera Go, you can see the world in your language by pointing your camera lens at the foreign text.
Note: Night mode is currently available on select compatible devices only.
Legal disclaimer: For available Google Lens languages go to g.co/help/lens. Some Lens features require an Internet connection.
