Camera2 probe? - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Has anyone has run a Camera2 probe yet? Curious what level of implementation this device has for the Camera2 API (and if it's Limited like with the P20 Pro). Thanks.

Hope it helps.

Looks to be the same as the P20 Pro; thanks much.

Camera2 API support on the Mate 10/Mate 10 Pro

Huawei has been extremely sloppy in the past regarding support for the Camera2 API to allow third party camera apps to include full manual controls for exposure etc. Pretty much all other phone makers have full Camera2 support at least in their flagship lines but Huawei didn't even include it in the P10. So I'm really hoping that Huawei finally got things right with the Mate 10 / Mate 10 Pro. Would anyone with a Mate 10 or Mate 10 Pro be so nice to run this free Camera2 probing app ("Camera2 probe") from the PlayStore and post the results here? I'm most interested in the hardware level support category (It's either "Legacy", "Limited", "Full" or "Level 3").

Thanks a lot! Unfortunately, it's still only "Limited", come on Huawei, how hard can it be?
And it is still fake "limited"...

Camera2 API without rooting?

Hey, is there any way to get Camera2 API support to shoot RAW video on the Mate 10 Pro? Without rooting... This phone has a great camera so it would be sooo nice to see some 100mbit footage from camera.

Even with ROOT, camera2api on this device is limited.

So...
If nobody can help with Filmic Pro, perhaps someone with an Honor 10 could run Camera 2 api and share the results? That would give me a good idea whether Filmic Pro will work or not.
Thanks!

Camera 2 API Support - Offical Forum Thread

Hey Guys,
I opened a thread in the offical Huawei Forum in order to try to push a little the better implementation of the camera 2 api. I know chances are low, but if there is enough feedback and participation in the discussion maybe there is a chance for change. So please feel free to contribute to the thread and also share it if you are interested in better camera 2 api implementation.

Maybe also support these for a smarter camera app:

Thank you for sharing the links and for the support. I know the chances are low that this is going to change something but maybe huawei pays some attention to the community...
I don't know how much this will really matter in the recent light of the huawei ban, but we received an answer regarding the Camera2api implementation in the forums.

Lets hope that the noise made about this topic is enough to maybe move something a a better direction.
Huawei doesn‘t care, I bet. At least Lightroom can shoot HDR DNG with the ultra wide cam...
I wanted to make a comment about this. I just bought the p30 pro here in China. I have been waiting for the emui 10 update. But, I also found on Huawei's website the Huawei Camerakit, which it says encapsulates the Google camera2 API. It requires Android studio version 3.0.1 or later, a Kirin 970 or later, and emui 8.1.0 or later... Wouldn't this mean a developer like the people on here could implement it? Link is developer.huawei.com/consumer/en/Camerakit.
I am hoping you all have an explanation/some enlightenment!
P30 Lite specification
Could anybody share Camera2 API Prob results here for Huawei P30 Lite?

Camera2 API support

Could someone with the device confirm what type of camera support this device has through the app "Camera2 API probe" or similar.
Hopefully it works well since I saw someone has the Gcam working.
Thanks & Kind Regards,
Josh

Attached is your answer....however would like to tell you one thing that gcam is better on those devices where OEM can't provide a good cam app which is not the case with OPPO, camera app on this device is already great. I don't think so gcam will do any wonders.
Thanks @mohitgalaxy3 . Wondered if the Camera2 API exposed the other 2 cameras too (wide angle and Tele) since people keep saying about the lack of video capability on the other lenses but maybe could have been possible. Looks like it's only the primary lens.

I hope that Oppo enable video capabilities for other two sensors.
Oppo is working on the software part and I know dark mode is coming soon for Color OS.
