I really wanted to thank everyone in xda because you guys are doing an awesome job. Seriously I don't ask questions I read as much as I can until I find the answer but in this specific case there is a wall in front of me and I cannot go any further. Today after two days struggling with my Xperia X10i finally I installed the MIUI V2 also I used the KeRnel FXP133.ftf. There are some things working there are some that are not, but my concern is with the camera because I've been reading for a while and most of the people say if I understood right that the camera is functional. I'm really new installing custom ROMs so I don't really know what else to try or to read because the main threat has 153 pages of information that i don't really understand also I notice that there is a post that says ICS Camera fix 8MP/6MP [v0.9] I did read but without any solutions for my phone. I can life without the camera feature but having my phone incomplete doesn't make any sense to me. Once again I truly appreciate everyone’s job in here, thank you for your prompt answer.
Best regards

Generally most ICS ROMs on the X10, don't support Cameras because the drivers arent there. But you can always just fall back to a 100% Stable GB ROM
Good Luck!

if you want ics rom, install fxp142 rom and apply scritch007's camera fix. it works flawlessly.
I am tickled pink by this. People development continues. Way to go to this mad man!! I hope this helps us all!!!
Oh I sooooo hope this is true.
Well our CM development has been miss for 4 days now. That and with locked threads and the BUMP! drama, it sucks that our development is limited to just Engine95. His work is great and I have been on V3 for a few weeks now. I still really want a working lollipop with bluetooth and video recording...
Wow. Just looked over there. Their device has TONS of development. I just don't have the hardware or time to learn. I wish I did.
We cannot forget though who we have on our side and what he has done for us. !!!!!! jholtom !!!!!!

Bluetooth is working (pairing and playing media/calls) on RandomPooka's 113014 build in the main discussion thread, so we're getting closer to having a daily driving in case anyone wanted to know
Sent from my LG-ls990 using XDA Free mobile app
CM11 build
Has anyone been able to get cm11 to build recently?
I have been following the instructions from below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-how-to-build-cyanogenmod-11-d850-t2971538
I am unable to get it to compile. My errors are shown on the above link to thread in the reply section.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hey guys, I saw this on the xda portal and since I think the stock camera sucks I gave it a go.
Surprisingly it worked on Badboyz rom 3.2.
Just try it out for yourselfes, it seems promising to me!
https://www.xda-developers.com/xda-...nos-galaxy-s7-running-aosp-for-reduced-noise/
P. S. I do not own this, all credits go to their respective owners.
EDIT:
This one seems to work as well.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/themes/apk-snapdragoncamera-codeaurora-build-t3533687
But none of these let me adjust video brightness, which is sad.
Only Open Camera does that.
Anyone has a good video camera alternative?
Stock is sooo dim.
It's been talked about many times now so try a search.
People found snap camera to work very well.
Did your photo quality improve?

You are the one who needs to do some reading I think.
I made this thread for a camera app that did not exists when people were talking about the alternative camera apps, also no one talked about the video brightness in snap cam or any other cam app to be honest.
I did my searching before posting, maybe you should do your reading as well.

So far not really.
Please pay a bit more attention to the reason why most of us bought this phone: https://www.androidauthority.com/motorola-moto-z3-play-review-885207/
Must I stress this? I'm sure I am not the only one getting annoyed by the lack of Moto Mod support in most current Custom Roms.
(Pixel Experience and Lineage 15.1 implementing it the best when it comes to 8.1)
There is even an entire sub redit complaining about this...
I am no developer myself, but here it is laid out on how to make a ROM that supports most Moto Mods, this seemed a bit buried and hard to find, but seems extremely useful as if someone has already done the nitty gritty work:
There is a detailed Mod Porting tutorial at the bottom of this thread:
> https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72601804&postcount=2 <
And I don't know if this is possible but it would also be great to have something like a flashable zip or base that supported Moto Mods for treble or/GSI ROMS in the future.
If anyone can get a Pie rom working with MODS soon enough, you'll beat Motorola to it. Think about that... you could work for them, because sadly it's something they haven't accomplished yet lol.
This should be in MOTO Z2 PLAY GUIDES, NEWS, & DISCUSSION.
Try looking, it has been explained before why we only have battery mod support. Besides, development is dead, there are no Devs now.

I looked and I found that it is possible to have more than the battery mod support, hence this post. The ROM I am on now, lineage 15.1 (Oreo 8.1 with November security patch)> works with my projector mode also.
Past custom Roms have also supported more than the battery mod.
I hope I don't have to explain the concept of looking to you, there are no Devs currently, development is not dead, they are waiting for/working on Pie. That you would know if you have been looking and reading the forums and posts by Devs.

For your information, one of the old Devs here said only battery mod for z2 play because the other mods caused too many problems on custom ROMs. Also, nobody is working on pie on xda for z2p. The Devs that where here all left, they are not waiting, they moved on.

Even tho I have proof of the projector mod working very stable on my phone on lineage 15.1 January security update???? And other mods in the link I supplied in the post??? Cool story...
The whole point of this post was to help devs like that accomplish it. I am guessing this is one reason why many give up...You have no idea how incorrect you are obviously, I have read 2 devs for these mod compatible ROMS state they were waiting for Pie. Because 8.1 is sufficiently accomplished now. Waiting= no current activity/posts/8.1 updates. I just technically had a dev here work on lineage 15.1 for me yesterday, compiling the new security update.
Want the link to this best ROM for the phone right now or can you LOOK for it by yourself? Thanks to me it's really not hard to find.

I was going to respond to your misunderstandings but, had to much of a giggle at your progressive edits to further attack me. Goodbye, no time for you.
Please explain this misunderstanding of mine:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-play/development/rom-lineageos-15-1-t3731228/page42
And look where that got me. 2 stable mods, 8.1 64 bit, January security patch and even a microg version.
Again I will add another screenshot taken from the post about mod compatibility.
...
Fact: A Dev compiled a security update for lineage albus yesterday. Another made a microg variant a few weeks ago.
Fact: the link in this post is how stable mod support can be accomplished.

K.O.
This was your original comment, you were clearly claiming we only have battery mod support now, and why that is.
On a post containing information to why that is not, and how we can achieve more than that.
Like wow...

Correct, I was claiming based on the last information I had from a Dev. And you seem to have found the answer, I stand corrected. Finished?

It's gonna be more likely to be seen in the right thread section (as now). Otherwise it looks like you believe that you are higher than the rules we all here try to respect (the convenient thing is to keep each section ordered).
Have a nice day. :good:
guys, guuuys !! You done bickering, have you?
Now please have a look back at your posts, they look better, don`t they?
Further inflammatory posts containing disrespectful and useless remarks like "stupid, idiotic, butt-hurt" and so on will be removed and not only edited would also unleash some "respectful" pm`s straight to your inbox.

if it is a discussion then it must take place in this section, and "to be more visible" this is up to the level of conversation, what needs to be seen it will be always seen.

Please keep it civil and enjoy the forums.
Thank you!
as long as the topic has drastically changed its direction and no one is interested anymore, I`ll be closing it.
I have nicely requested to keep it civil but it seems that no one cares. @MusicAlleyInc message me please when you think this thread can continue on the topic that has been created and I will reopen it.
Thanks for understanding

I have the Camera2 API Enabler Magisk module installed, but the official GCam from Play Store is only compatible with Android Pie.
Should I just find an older version of GCam for Oreo? Or is it more complicated than that?

We used to have very active V30 Gcam thread, but the most popular version was from @Cstark. I suggested he start a dedicated thread down on the mods sections, because his kept being drowned out by the others in the "everything" thread.
It worked (February 2018) and the other "general Gcam" thread died out as his version was clearly the best. However, he had to widen the scope to other LG models because all the other LG model owners came in here begging it also work for their camera.
Suddenly it wasn't "GCam for V30", it became [GCam] [Wide Angle] LG G5,LG G6,LG V20,LG V30.
Stuff like this was also going on for in other forums for other brands like OnePlus, etc. So, a few months later XDA decided to MOVE all the GCam threads to another section of XDA:
Google Camera Mods
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/google-camera-mods
Also about this time, @Cstark stopped developing for the V30 as he got another phone, but someone else stepped in to continue his work. He never re-named his thread, so even though it says v 4.2 it's well past that.
Someone also created a thread in that forum section for the succcessor's mods, which work on a lot of phones:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78054159&postcount=2
You are right it's a popular question, but that's where it's all being discussed.
Gotcha, thoroughly detailed as always
I once spent a fair amount of time and effort keeping track of different GCam mods. Then I lost interest, because the stock cam was always the most reliable.
Several times it happened that there was a good photo taking opportunity in a trip or so, and working through different GCam issues, options and settings botched it. So, I am back to using stock camera. The best picture is the one you already took, not the one you could have taken.
Individual experience may vary.

I feel the same way. On rooted stock, the switch between cameras (wide angle, front/back) always works seamlessly, there's no green tint on any...
I even have access to G7/V40 improvements through the Anxious V30 Magisk module.
One of the reasons I never installed a custom ROM, because I use stock camera.

Aside from the green tint on the selfie cam, Arnova's 1.7 (Gcam 6.1.021) works great for me. I don't take selfies, so I don't care about that.
For fast/quick pictures, I use the stock camera app. But if I want to tinker, play, or use night-sight, this Gcam works well for me. Night sight just takes a little longer to do its thing. In the end, I have both available, so it's not a big deal to me.
Do you guys download any GCam apks from celsoazevedo? I thought I had found a link there for a specific version for the V30 but I can't find that link anymore. The OP on the cstark27 thread has a link for 5.1 but people in the comments are talking about a 6x version, but I can't find the download link and I don't want to click through 200 pages of posts to try to find it
So far I'm agreeing that the Stock Cam is just fine, however I did take a picture in Portrait Mode on GCam5 and it looks outstanding. And since I just recently got this phone, I wanna play around with GCam and see if I can find something that works for me. Currently I have Stock Cam, GCam5, and GCam6 all installed but I'd like to find one that works best instead of having 3 separate cameras. Got those from the /r/lgv30 sticky

I use stock and GCam5. I don't even bother with trying to find a GCam6 that works fully because there isn't one and probably won't be one. The only good use of GCam6 is the night sight. But I hardly ever have a time where I need it. I mainly use GCam5 for pictures because it does a better job of processing the photos. And Stock Camera for video because it has more options.

Yeah I eventually found the link again from the reddit page, but the cstark27 GCam 5 seems to be the most reliable. The only thing it's missing is Night Sight but I can just use the stock cam for that.

Have you tried Open Camera? It's surprisingly good, at least compared to the default cam in LineageOS.
