[Q] Sony Xperia Z2 Album update problem? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone experiencing this problem, when my Album updated I can't use photo which I took with my Z2 ( superior auto mode 8mp) for background without a massive crop. This is example picture. Only this which is marked in square will be on background all this shaded black won't be on background. Before that last album update it asked me to crop pictures before setting them on background but not this much. Also is there any app which does not need croping before setting picture as background because if it's taken with my Z2 why it can't fit on home background?

That's weird, are you on KitKat?

[Q] Possible to flash Samsung Camera on top of AOSP ROMs?

Hi, just wondering if it's possible to flash the original samsung camera on top of AOSP or AOKP ROMs? I dislike the AOSP camera as it doesn't have features that I want on the samsung camera, for example panorama and taking photos while video recording. Thanks so much!
unfortunately not as the camera relies on tw framework

the simple answer/solution is to use dual boot and have Samsung Rom as secondary, only takes about 45 seconds to boot from one to the other

hey nice review overall, i can see that the way you use your fingerprint scanner is wrong and that makes you say that it is a gimmick. you might want to check out the other video on busting the fingerprint scanner myths on max.

I just checked out the video you mentioned.
1) To be honest I disagree with the man. I personally hold the phone so that my pinky is below the bottom part, which prevents it from slipping out. For me that is the natural way of holding the device and when holding it in that way I can't comfortably reach the fingerprint scanner.
2) The second thing that I didn't like was the lack of functionality to lock access to certain apps, photos etc which would have been a very nice feature to be used with the fingerprint scanner.
3) I personally only used the fingerprint scanner for a while, as it seemed pointless to me.
Thanks for watching and I am glad that you have enjoyed my video

Google Pixel Camera Port working

As the title says the Google Pixel Camera app Port is working on the LG GO even with it's snapdragon 855
Go to this thread and download the newest apj and try it out.
Been playing with it ant it seems like everything is working but I'm sure tweaks will make it even better.

Yeah I checked this out after reading your post. The apk installs and runs but everything does not work. For me the main use for gcam is the portrait photos. When I go to that mode the app freezes on the last image the camera captures. Hopefully they update the app to work fully with the G8, one of the many things I'm missing from my V20

I am in the same boat as you.
Anyone have any luck so far with another GCam....I was thinking of trying this version. The non wide angle lens.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=31004
The one originally posted here keeps crashing on my tmobile G8, and was pretty slow to respond when shooting. Ah well, I look forward to further updates.
Probably a long shot, but does anyone here have a G8S (not normal G8) AND managed to find a GCam port that works? I don't have the phone yet but I don't wanna go through all the existing GCam ports when I get my hands on it lol. Already did that once with another device.
EDIT: for those wondering, I found Arnova's 1.6 version seems to be working well on my G8s. Some pictures have quite a bit of noise in low light conditions but I guess that's because of the inferior camera (compared to the regular G8).
Probably the best port of the Gcam for the G8, all modes work and the color reproduction is good, I don't think there is a better port than this.

Do you have any photo samples from the port? I am considering getting a used G8 from eBay and camera is holding me back.
I will not give you examples but a description of the camera.
In general, the original application of the Lg camera offers a photographic quality that I consider 8/10 or 7/10 with colors relatively related to reality, however, the gcam gets more details in exchange for slightly attenuating the photo.
I have tested the front camera with the application of both cameras and I have concluded that the portrait mode has been improved with the Gcam, obtaining more details and blur quality
---------- Post added at 12:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------
In general, I could recommend the LG G8, it has a good battery life, a good screen and a good camera, but if you want a somewhat better camera in exchange for increasing the price, not having the Snapdragon 855 nor having the face id With function in the dark, I definitely recommend the Galaxy s9.

I'm not using that version but it should be the same thing as on the one I'm using, you just have to enable AUX camera in the GCam settings then you have to long-press the button that changes between back camera and selfie cam.

Long pressing opens the settings menu. I'll give another version a shot. I was using Arnova's but it kept force closing.
It is the perfect working version "xcam beta11"
So what do you guys think about the difference comparing to LG`s app?

Yes, that version works perfectly, I left most things unchanged in the settings, disabled flash and voila its almost ZSL
Just got one problem, some pics are a bit cold compared to stock, not sure how to optimize it in settings.

Could you please extract some from OnePlus 8 T Cyberpunk edition?
I'm also after the theme from the cyber punk.
Looks decent
So..when trying to install the most recent one it fails. APKMirror says due to old v1 signature, but doesn't give a way to bypass that (just some surfacely details). Can anyone explain hwo to install it anyway or where I find the information? Google just spits out infos for devs and their own apps.
