Hello guys,
today I´m going to show you how to enable Camera2 API for our Axon 7. Because ZTE did´nt want us to know, that our camera is capable of this function, they kept it a secret, but actually it´s pretty easy to enable this. Requirements: Not sure yet, but definitely works on Vertex.
1.) Open build.prop with an working editor. (system/build.prop)
2.) Add the following line in the build.prop: "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1"
3.) Save the edited file and reboot.
That was pretty easy, wasn´t it? Now you have full control of your focus, expsure, raw, etc.
On the stock rom, this has to be tested. Hope you enjoy.
Edit: Seems like it isn't the full control though
I'm pretty sure this has been tried already and doesn't work.

No it doesn't. I tried the Google Camera port on Vertex and it didn't work.
It's "enabled" by default on AEX but google camera crashes. It's a hardware problem.

You sure? The default google camera port doesn´t work with our device, if it´s not moddified. You need to grab it from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/modded-google-camera-hdr-60fps-video-t3658552
I personally have this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByQSZtXbeaVpUnJBQ2twWW1ucnM/view
The next time, you say that something is not working, just try once more. If you followed what I wrote, then you should have working camera2api.
The last pic, contains Footej Camera, where you can see that Camera2 API is correctly working. Other apps as FV-Cinema, Open Camera, etc can acces manual focus, exposure, .. too. Without problems

It doesn't work. If Camera2API was working HDR+ would work. If you go into the settings of the camera port you posted it shows "no hdr+" and if you to try to change it the camera app gives an error and crashes. So no, it doesn't work.

Maybe you don't know what camera2api is, or you messed something up on your device. Camera2api isn't about the HDR function on an ported Google camera. With the method I posted, I have full control of focus, iso, exposure and shutter speed. These settings work only if camera2api is enabled. Your "doesn't work" is unnecessary. I showed you more than once with proof, that this is working.

I installed the modded camera from your post #6. When I start it without the prop added, the app crashes. After adding the prop and restarting, the app starts and I can switch to Nexus6 HdrPlusAuto. But then when I try to take a picture, the app crashes. I erased all app data and just tried to take a picture, and the app crashes.
I am on unofficial Resurrection Remix, August 11 build.
EDIT: after uninstall & reinstall, I can take pictures without HDR+. Once I activate HDR+, it crashes again.

Are you sure you aren't on the 3.6 version? That one seems to work just fine for me along with the magisk 60fps module. Currently on Vertex

You are right, 3.6*
Not working for me either on rooted stock. Although the api shows as active, all Camera2 Api apps crash.

After some trial and errors I can confirm v36 with Magisk slow motion plugin is working.
Still some hick ups here and there but it is really working.
Thank you very much for your guide!

I appreciate your confirmation and I made this guide to help others. Hope that they know that camera2api is about manual, focus, exposure, shutter speed in apps like Open Camera and not if an ported APK like Google camera works or not.

Is there a way to get the stock camera app to focus manually in Lineage OS? I recently flashed from the stock ROM, and when I open the camera app, it automatically focuses on the the center of the screen. If I try tapping anywhere else, nothing happens. I don't think it's a hardware issue, since it worked fine when I was on stock, and i can still zoom in and out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

about this rom: some think like its source, screenshot, features.
I have permanent restarts.

Otherwise, the system has been quite successful.

Weird, I'm using the rom now since two days and haven't got any restarts yet and haven't noticed anything wrong with the fingerprint.
The only thing I can confirm is the camera quality, for me it's ok as I don't use the camera that much anyway.
No restarts here either. Been using for two days. Works nice. Camera quality is not great but it is fast to take a picture. Fingerprint sensor doesnt work at all for me
Edit: finger print does work just buggy.
does this rom work with the dual sim version ?
Anybody tried flashing clean DRM-fix kernel to fix the camera issue?
Camera does not suck, the reason the photos. Were blurry was because the stock gallery app takes alot of time to render the image. Here's a sample image that I took.
I think this is a good ROM but I won't be using it for now since I don't want to do a full reset of my phone.
UPDATE: video recording does not work.
What if one would use a custom camera app would that help with the quality or do they all require some sort of proprietary components? I'm not talking about SteadyShot...etc, just good overall picture results using 3rd party apps on 3rd party ROMs.
so can someone make a thread about how to install the rom? I am a newbie on fastboot locked phones

Follow this link :
This is for Xperia M but this should also work for Xperia x except that you have to take DRM backup before you unlock bootloader.
Fingerprint worked for me initially.
But after adding a second fingerprint, fingerprint-unlock stopped working. Also deleting fingerprints from the settings does not work anymore. Adding new fingerprints also fails now..
Has anyone made the same observation? Possible fix?
I installed the following file for the Google Camera HDR+ and it worked. I'm using the H-ROM G6 Port, idk if that is a must.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617934890
Works for the Lineage-based ROM I'm using (Resurrection Remix) so I'm hopeful this will work for any ROM. HDR+ isn't making any difference for me at the moment though, what settings do we use?

Doesn't matter what you choose, even opening settings and closing them without touching anything makes the app crash. The hdr+ switch is just a dummy, the photo quality and everything is just the same as stock google camera.

First of all, this is not my work. You can find the devs behind this in the original thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/themes/mod-updated-6-11-17-google-camera-hdr-t3701190
This are the camera apps I tried and found them to be the ones that had most features working. THESE WERE ALL TESTED ON THE STOCK ROM AND WITHOUT ROOT.
Asus Camera: All picture and recording modes work, but opening the settings page crashes the app. Normal picture and video quality.
HTC Camera: All modes work except for panoramic selfies. The settings page works. Normal picture and video quality.
Meizu Camera: Works flawlessly. Manual mode only has EV Bracket control. Normal picture and video quality.
Nokia Camera: Takes excellent pictures in my opinion. Slowmo video doesn't work and settings page is inaccessible. You're stuck taking 13MP pictures and recording 4K video.
OnePlus Camera: Works flawlessly. HDR doesn't seem to work. Manual mode fully working. The app has a sharpness setting mod available in the settings page. Good picture quality and superior video recording quality in my opinion.

The only camera app that I know for doing this is FV-5 Camera, but it's kind of a fake long exposure, i think it takes multiple pictures with the longest exposure available for your phone and then combines them. Try it and see if it's of use for you. You can find it in the PlayStore

Hello guys!
Wide selfie mode is here and works for me in beta 3. Also, they removed or combined sense optimization with normal shooting. I kinda like it to be separated
But selfie on gcam is way better than stock one.
Where is wide selfie on stock?
