Hello XDAers,
I'm on Lineage OS 14.1 with the GCam installed. It works well except for when I zoom to take a picture (or even the portrait mode on the rear camera) the image after clicking is shifted to the right. I'm attaching examples below.
The first picture is a screenshot of what I'm actually focussing on. The second pic is the actually picture clicked. As you can see it always shifts to the right!
This happens with the LOS stock cam and all versions of GCams when I zoom. Portrait mode (which is 1.5x zoomed by default) also has the same problem!
Any help will be appreciated!
Known bug
Is it a bug in LOS or in the device itself? I bought it as an X829.
It would be great if you can share what this bug is called and any links describing it
It's a bug with Nougat and this device (camera blob problem). It's only digital zoom anyways, so nobody really cares.
True. My only gripe with it is the problem caused in the portrait mode (GCam). Otherwise doesn't bother me so much.
Thanks!
The only way to have correct zoom is by using pic size of 16:9.
hope some one else have a batter solution with the size of 4:3 so we can enjoy the full power of the camera.
I have the same problem but left-shifted and only on Messenger camera. In GCam i haven't this problem .
Thanks @ali7_has !
That's pretty unusual that you have a problem only with the messenger cam.
I haven't this problem on stock ROM or other based stock but I have this in Nougat and Oreo ROMs ( i tested 2 roms Nougat and one Oreo ROM). I have this only in Messenger cam, in GCam or preinstalled cam iI have no issue
thanks to @prsapphire the zoom is working correctly even for 4:3.
fist I installed his EUI 6.0 from this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/rom-eui-6-0-0617t-prerc-port-x850-t3739612
than I clean install AICP oreo and now the zoom is working correctly.
I think his modem firmware is the solution for our zoom problem.

Are you sure? That didn't solve it for me. Still right shifted in 4:3 ratios.
EDIT: Just installed latest Pixel Experience and low and behold, zooming works correctly. However I think this might be to do with the fact it's now using the open source Camera HAL?
Heyyo, use Camu from the Play Store. It's the only camera app without that issue... Not sure why tbh.
As for Oreo ROMS? If they use the new Open Source Camera HAL? They won't have the zoom issue. It's a known bug with the camera shim used in Nougat and early Oreo ROMs.

Fix video for Android 7.x
Replace RAW12 by RAW_PRIVATE
Add toggle hdr+ in front camera for portrait mode (For hdr + front camera compatible devices)

I will add this in my thread
Ver 1.4 and 1.5 portrait mode is working well on Nos 8.1. HDR+ works well too except for front cam HDR+ (maybe not supported on our device) only issue I see so far is that the quality of portrait photos isn't as good as regular shots, the camera seems to be using a higher iso for some reason in portrait mode and the pictures come out grainy.

If you are using Nitrogen OS 8.1, go to:
Settings->System->Developer options->Set GPU Renderer
and select: OpenGL (Skia)
This solved the issue for me...

What setting using?
Thanks to @2CanSan. He reported this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/themes/magisk-based-gcam-port-ar-sticker-t3730837 in the AospExtended ROM V5.2_V4.6 by @NFound.
I have been doing test with the GCAM magisk modules. There are 7 versions 15A to 15G. I started with G version but the configuration is fixed and I can meke the cam work. The F version is very configurable. I have done a lot of test and I have achieved the frontal cam HDR+ and Potrait work.
It would be great someone with AEX(Oreo) test this module and report the results.
Steps:
0. ROM Resurection remix Oreo(8.1). It can be found in the AospExtended ROM V5.2_V4.6 thread
1. Install Link v15F
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754461390
3.Open the Gcam(installed with the point 1 module) and follow this steps:
Note: back camera is working but hdr+ is not working, is like a normal camera apk.
3 in Settings/B-S-G Mod setting
- Select Model Pixel II.
- In Manual fixed black level offset select 63.
4. Exit from setting. Close the app and Remove the gcam from the tasks.
5. Open the camera (become black because the back camera is not working) and change to front camera.
6. In Settings/Advanced options enable HDR+ control.
7. Disable Movement, Disable flash and enable HDR+ improved. Test your results against the rom camera. Attached mines.
8. Test front potrait mode. Works almost fine..there are some arifacts.
Note. if you change the app setting and the app crashes and don't let you change the settings, remove app data and start the configuration from the beginning.
Tha app allows log so maybe our great co-phone developers can make the back camera work. It would be great!!!
Video of steps https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iYKZiAHyvqngkWgZY_eLAiXNEu818Krk/view?usp=drivesdk
In mode of magisk the S.O Crash and Reset in AEX
only Install in Recovery, You are warned ...!!!
It works even if those color bands did not come out in the photos, it would be excellent: D this I had seen before, there is a dedicated thread of the essensial Phone and version 7 is the only one that works with Axon 7, I had tested it in the OrderKriegger ROM but I confirm and confirm that it works with AEX.
The normal selfie camera works as well, but I feel that the portrait mode has more quality in the image ... the bug made it to lose. If you like selfies this is your app ... if the front camera as in my case you have it more ... better looking to improve the rear camera! : D
I have posted this in the magisk gcam module:
Hello all. Firts of all thanks for your sharing.
I have an Axon 7 with Resurrection Remix 6 (Android 8.1 based on LOS). I have flased the 15F version and selected Pixel II in "Model" and Auto in ·Config camer HDR+".
I have Front camera hdr+ working on front camera....Incredible improvement of quality in special at night!!
But back camera is not working (only work when I remove gcam data and "Model" is not selected).
I hava compared the logcat on front and back camera opening and the error in the back camera is this:
E Camera3-Device: Camera 0: sendRequestsBatch: RequestThread: Unable to submit capture request 2 to HAL device: Function not implemented (-38)
I know our device camera has not Google camera API 2 implemented, but why front is working and not back? Any advice?
Thanks!!
HDR+ is working but portrait has alot of blue and red artifacts on front camera back camera dosent work unless changing the model i hope something gets a workaround soon

You sure the back camera shoots HDR+ enhanced? Nobody here was able to do that, and we all tried F on AEX or RR.

You don't have HDR+ enhanced. Of course. I could also take pictures with the back camera, but HDR+ enhanced actually takes a bunch of pictures (an 8 shot burst i think) and puts a loading circle for half a second in the middle of the screen while it does. after that, when you open the gallery it should blend them all together. If you actually see a huge difference then it works.
Use the front one and choose HDR+ enhanced, you'll see what it does if you have it configured correctly

nope, the software to make the model was. And it wouldn't have been useful for us anyways, because what we need is HDR+ enhanced on the back camera, we already have portrait mode semi-working

I request Miui Camera mod for the Mi 8 Lite specifically.
There is a mod for the Redmi Note 5 that apparently works on the Mi 8 Lite too, but changes several parameters of the build.prop such as the model and the device's code name. When trying to change them the mod stops working correctly and gives an error message (can not connect to the camera)
There is also GCam, but with some bugs and errors.
Anyone who can make a functional port of the Miui camera for this device?
I would also like.
I'm waiting to unlock my bootloader and then i will try to port stock camera app ??

Tested on last Mokee aosp build, install this module with magisk
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1frIYQ83SEGuijmdARYMiKmMRJA6wl166
Install Pixel Expirience CAF last version, install stock miui camera via Magisk and restart phone, replace vendor/lib libmmcamera_platina_imx576_sunny with this lib from zip and disable Hal3 support in vendor/build.prop and restart again. After this steps Miui front camera will work with 24.8mp, also Instagram, messenger etc will work like charm on 24.8mp ....
What about with Gcam? Without HAL3 enabled, it can't be used. Would there be any way for both cameras to work? Personally, I like both applications very much.
You can open a thread where you go picking up the different revisions of this port, so more people will try it.
Hallelujah, we already have the Miui camera for Platina (with bugs for the moment hahaha). Thank you:fingers-crossed:

For now there is no way to make working both cameras alongside with camera2api and Gcam, another great thing is that I managed to port portrait for back camera and utilize both sensors for depth and main shooter, later I will made thread when i finish my work

Recently I got a Xiaomi Mi Mix2 in second hand so I flashed Lineage and wanted a google camera so I started trying a lot of apks of the google camera provided by:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
I almost gave up because for some reason I was not able to find one that worked well. Until I found this one:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog786/
From the dev: Parrot043
In my case this apk works very well, apart from one slight glitch that I came across, for some reason sometimes when in front facing camera the shutter doesn't take the picture, but if I switch to another mode, for example to portrait, and then go back to the mode that I was in, I can take the picture without any problem.
I don't know if this is necessary but I disabled google play protection to install the app and in developer options I ticked the box "Force GPU rendering for 2D drawing", by doing this I managed to make it work, however you mileage may vary....Try it out at your own will!!!! Thank You to Parrot043.
I use it from 1st version available. It works good on PE 10.
For portrait bug, i have disabled "face retouching" and "advanced Hdr in portrait" and works flawlessy.
I have disabled Motion photo too, cause i don't use it.
Anyway, if you try on Pie, the_dise Gcam 7 has slowmotion at 240fps instead of 120fps. ??? But almost nothing of other modes works. Does not work in Q rom.
Message to devs: Mix up slowmotion of the_dise with camera of Parrot43 !!! Pleaseeee
For me its not working

Work HDR front and back camera. https://1-dontsharethislink.celsoazevedo.com/file/filesc/GCam_8.1.101_Wichaya_V1.4.apk
I saw that all the threads about anxcamera got closed because they contained links to the anxcamera website, violating rule 13, which is why I won't be posting any links here. I just hope to be able to discuss ANXCamera tips and tricks in this thread, just like we can in the gcam thread.
There is now an ANXCamera version available for android R, which is great for the people on aosp custom roms. I am particularly interested in ANXCamera for the wide angle lens because gcam doesn't do wide angle lens distortion correction as of now, and the MIUI camera also has a little more options for video recording. The video recording for the main lens works really well, all 1080p and 4k modes work, also their AI 8k whatever that is works fine. For some reason EIS only appears to be working on [email protected], [email protected], it doesn't work at all for 4k and [email protected] Most of the alternative modes on the main camera, panorama slowmotion etc seem to work fine. 64MP seems to give me an overly saturated (like it's deepfried) image and the night mode processes infinitely. On top of that, no AUX lenses appear to be working. Portrait mode doesn't work, wide angle lens crashes the camera and there is no option for the macro lens. At least the front camera works fine, I usually prefer it over gcam for selfies because gcam shows too much detail in selfies. All my testing is done on the derpfest R rom with the latest firmware.
So in short, ANXCamera for R is pretty broken right now and I would only use it for selfies and video recording in some cases.
Too bad this discussion did not get any replies yet.
@GalaxyTroll, which version of ANXCamera did you test? I noticed on the website that in the changelog of v204 lmi is mentioned, but the wiki states that it still needs to be tested on this device.
I'm hesitating to test this version myself, because due to personal circumstances I might not be able to restore my phone in case something goes wrong and for now I'm totally depending on it. Did anybody try v204 on the Poco F2 Pro?
I'm on Lineageos 18.1.
The version I tested here was 185R by Noid. I also just tested version 190R (on 19-09 crdroid) and it's still pretty bad, in some ways worse than 185R. For starters, EIS doesn't appear to be working at all anymore. "Steady Mode" can only record in [email protected] and even then it's not even applying EIS. The only available video options are [email protected] [email protected] and [email protected] and those work fine, but I couldn't find a 4k option so I think it's gone.. H265 encoding doesn't work although H264 works fine. Slowmotion and timelapse modes seem to be working just like in the previous version.
As for photos, wide angle lens is still broken but this time "super macro" switches to the macro lens so that works now. Portrait mode does seem to work this time, and it seems to apply the bokeh effect correctly. Panorama mode still works as well. However 64M mode still produces wayy overexposed photos and Night Mode results in a "cannot connect to camera" error.
Props to Noid for making this mod. but for our device it's still a long ways off. Too bad that EIS doesn't work at all anymore because video recording was one of the things anxcamera could do possibly better than gcam.
btw @heinhuiz v204 does not work at all when I tested it, it's not even able to connect to the main camera and the app just closes.
