Hi,
Just upgraded to litening ROM 1.2 (from 1.1), and the camera autofocus is not working anymore. No error shown, but all my pictures are blurry.
All apps using the camera seem to be impacted.
PS: I'd like to post this in the ROM thread, but I don't have enough posts yet...
I have the same problem with the recent 1.3. Will try a fallback to 1.1...
Same thing back to 1.1, even after flashing back to stock KE7 + 1.3.
Something else must have changed...
turn macro focus off, and switch it to auto
Thanks fit the reply, but that's the first thing I've tried...
Macro mode is blurry as well by the way. I'm starting to think this is a hardware issue.
Does the auto focus make some noise? Not the android sound, but mechanical one.
By the default the front camera is rotated to the right by 90degree. I found a bug that you can do to rotate it back, not sure if everyone is aware of this already though or its an actual feature put in intentionally.
First, I'm running SlimBean 2.7 with the CM10 ffc patch and HoloLauncher.
Instruction: Put your phone in landscape mode. Launch Camera and switch it to the front camera mode. Press 'Back' once and it will rotate the image to upright angle. If you press Home and left the Camera in the ram, it will remain in the same angle when you relaunch the Camera.
However, this doesn't seem to effect face unlocking. Also if you're in Portrait mode it will not work.

I am running Snow Jelly Bean 1.1 Rom
I was hoping that when I installed this new rom that the front cam would improve. Here is my issue. When I use the front cam in video mode, indoors it is very dark, even with the brightness all the way up. I know the camera is capable of dealing with indoor light because the front camera in camera mode has a "night scene" mode that works fine, but it is not available in video mode. Does anyone have any idea how to increase the light sensitivity in front video mode? The auto white balance mode does nothing (sucks). Need a night/indoor mode or a way to manually do it. Thanks.
Hey guys, last update of GCam for G7thinq working on out device! (not everything is working obviously).
Working:
- main camera with HDR
- wide angle
- portrait
- video at 1080p
- H265 video recording
- night sight (but lags)
Edit: apk with working wide angle (thanks to @Whoareyou)

Enable Add AUX
Now switching between front and back camera twice is your switch to wide angle and back!

Cheers!
Here is an example of stock (top) vs Gcam (bottom). Gcam preserves more details (check bricks for example), and makes low light images a bit more clean overall.

The v40 has a very similar night mode, it just doesn't do much and conflicts with the flash. They seem to have tried but quit
I have an apk I found with working Wide angle but I am not sure which one it is (I've got a few in my downloads ?) I'll upload it here when I figure out which it is.

Switch to wide angle:
Switch to ffc
Switch back to rear
It should now be using wide angle.
@Whoareyou great find man! Works well!
For unfamiliar folks, what makes Google Camera great is the software post processing, particularly Google's HDR, which I never turn off, and portrait - great results. Also somehow GCam manages to preserve more details compared to LG's camera. Now we have working wide angle, I can switch to GCam completely, at least for photos. Night sight working as well, we just have to deal with lag in viewfinder.

Thanks for the link, but am I missing something as far as fixing the extreme lag with the view finder and image capture? Between hitting the capture button and the actual image being taken is several seconds, and the viewfinder lag makes it very hard to use.
I have lag only in night sight mode.
Shutter button works only on second touch for me. And yes, GCam takes a moment to take a picture compared to stock camera, that's just how it works on on phone.

The viewfinder is laggy no matter what for me, and it takes much longer than a moment for the shutter button to register for me. Oh well, maybe I'll have better luck with some future modded APK. The camera that comes stock with the V40 is already pretty good, but having night sight and Google's HDR would be the cherry on top.

Sounds like you missing something in settings. Make sure buffer fix is on on settings - bsg - fixes

It worked! Thank you much more functional now.
so when i try to take a picture it just doesnt take a pic.. also the shutter speed is insanely slow..
My portrait mode was working fine in the latest build(6.1.021) flawlessly and it used to take multiple burst shots(one normal and other with lens blur). Since yesterday it keeps on taking only the sharper photo and not the blurred one even though it's in portrait mode. What could be the problem and how do I fix it? Please help.
