Lollipop let us to take a RAW picture.
I know that Sony lock that feature even we are in Lollipop ROM.
The question is there any tweak so we can force take a RAW picture?
I hope someone is working for this feature.
Thanks.

its not a feature at all ( the api is not used at all )
it uses the raw support in terms of exif data but thats all
So is there any possibilities to tweak it?

whats the point of tweaking exif data
you need to add camera api support to a the stock kernel and write a specific app to utilize it
So a custom kernel can help?!

not just a custom kernel
a custom kernel modified for this which i doubt any pros would want to do so much hard work on something like this
Mayby porting some part of OPO kernel ,as it has RAW support and its camera app was allready ported i think?Anyway yeah even that would need a great amount of work,just btw - for RAW we need "camera api v2"?
I was really hoping for sony to add a RAW support as i work a lot in lightroom and i use my phone like a "support device" for my D300 so it would be nice to take full advantage of what its 20.7mp camera can do, i guess few people would have their reasons but thats not enough.

Is there any possibility to take HDR photos on HD2? Best way would be to integrate such feature right into the built-in camera app (iPhone-like)....
Thanks in advance, Pete.
I was just about to ask the same question.
I searched other threads and there is still no word about app that would enable us to get HDR.
HDR is strictly software level based so it shouldnt be too hard for someone to make app or modify ROM so we can use it.
iphone and Android didnt have it,but now they can enjoy this feature.
Hopefully someone will make that app for us.
Hi. Anybody knows how zoom can be activated on CM 6.1.3?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
try vignette.
zoom is not workin yet
The zoom will not be available in the stock camera feature until teh bootloader is cracked and drivers rewritten. Meanwhile Vignette should work.
Is there anyway a custom ROM (2.2 of 2.3) where the camera and the zoom DO work?
I can't find one, and I 'm very dissappointed by that, cause I'd like to move to e.g. 2.2, but a working camera with zoom and all that is an absolute must for me... And so far I can only find that in 2.1-ROMs...
Greetz,
kwarkje
Hi I'd like to know if it will be possible to have with stock camera feature a normal flash and not a torch like it was on SE camera...?
The cam for 2.2 works good but no zoom...it needs to write sources for the zoom,i think... but its even great to have a working cam and camcorder or not??? The devs do what they can and have a life outside of xda...i think their work is very good at this time
but its OT sorry,delete it if its wrong
send from my x10 using Rendeiro's 2.2.1/Cyanogen6.1.3
Camera
so i am just wondering how far along will full working cameraFIX be done ?
other than that CM ROCKS
It takes many time to fix the cam for fully working,cause the Devs cant use drivers from SE...they didnt work on 2.2 or 2.3... they have to write ALL the drivers for cam and camcorder manually from the scratch... thats why it takes many time...

Because it requires Sony's framework to run, so you'll always need to be on a stock based ROM to utilize their camera. For now at least.

Thanks a lot
i do believe such a thing already exists in the sony cross development sections however its extremly buggy due to how its been ported
i do recomend taking a look as this mod does work on/off cross devices, some it works fine and some not
great conecept though simply because it uses a custom app which contains all kinds of needed files and any apis have been moved within the camera app its self
If possible I am asking those of you with TWRP, root and backed up Le Max 2 phones to test and see if this method will enable Camera 2 API and provide full manual control to this best price - performance ratio phone.
Make sure to have a recent BACKUP before trying this mod !!! It involves editing the build.prop file.
DISCLAIMER:
Do not attempt if you do not know what you are doing!
http://androiding.how/enable-camera2api-manual-focus-aperture-exposure-raw-dslr-features-android/
You can test the success with Manual Camera Test app on the google playstore
Has anyone tried these APIs?
Nice, now I can shoot RAW pictures and get some manual things. I use Le max 2 and Cuoco92 rom and this enabling of camera2api doesn´t break the stock camera app on my device.
So it works for you? Thanks for your feedback!
My Le Max 2 is on the way and I wanted to find out if it works for our device.
I am amazed NO ONE else has tried a rather simple procedure which could take 10 - 15 minutes of their time.
With this kind of community, our device will lack development if no one shares experience and leaves their input.
Regards to all member of our subforum.
I am very eager to test it but right now I am stack with Indian rom and stupid encryption and can't do anything!!!
OK,after fixing the problem with the Indian rom stack,i have test it and works fine,i am now on 15s Chinese stock.Default camera works
Awesome! It will enable us to use advanced shutter functions for better low light and night photography and RAW too ! You can use free Camera 2 API-enabled apps now.

In case you yet to receive, i suggest not to upgrade from 14s until u root your device. OR built a rooting tool for most of us who are not willing to root once after updating 15s security patch :crying:
Best Regards
@neo299 Awesome !!
Thanks for highlighting this tip once more !! It makes an already good camera even better.
@EverPing My pleasure! It will make our phones more awesome and useful. With manual camera controls, we can make amazing photos even in low-light and night time conditions. Win-win for all of us
Hi
It seems it doesn't work here...
I edited t the build prop file as described in the link and installed the he recommended app.
On main camera all I get is a black screen ?
Maybe I should try another a app but don't know which one I should get to test it out...
Regards
What ROM are you using?

Been using this trick for a couple of weeks now. It's not that no one else has tried this, only that there are not many people on xda lemax 2 forums, most are on letv.re or spanish htcmania.
So, camera2 api is working on EUI roms? Because on Mokee it doesn't. It is activated in build.prop but when i try to use some camera app that work with camera2 api - crash, or blank screen etc.

camera2api raw mode does work on the latest .19s rom. However, the only camera app that works perfectly for me on my x820 is the Footej Camera on Playstore. Lightroom mobile detected the .dng perfectly at about 40mb for RAW and after you edited and save it, the jpg is 20mb

This is kinda work in progress port of Gcam with hdr+ for arm devices. it's based on google camera version 4.2.035.141213305-arm.
it needs camera api 2 enabled. you can enable it via flashing the zip I've attached or add below line into build.prop.
Code:
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
Stock rom is preferred, but it should work on all roms as long as above requirement is met.
Google camera apk
Please let me know if auto/touch focus works or not. happy testing :good:

Requires TWRP for flashing zip. or root for manually editing build.prop
Nice to see another thread on this..
Is root needed??
Also please try new Google camera APK.
Appreciate your work.
I see many devices having their own port of Google camera with more or less features, did you tried some of them on g5s? GCam ports for other devices on g5s?

Newer gcam apks are 64bit only so they won't work on phones with 32bit os like g5/g5s/g5+/g5s+ etc. this also needs root or custom recovery like TWRP to flash attached zip. i don't have this phone that's why i posted it here so others can see if it works.
slowmotion video won't work, nor i will fix it. since stock cam have that option already. this is only for hdr+.

Slow motion video works for me on XT 1806, also AEX 5.0 has the option already enabled, so you might not have to root if on a custom rom.

Interesting, just to be sure you have set hdr+ to always on ? how's the image quality now tho ? any improvements ?
can you post some samples with/without hdr+ ? :good:
I also tried this port. Work quite fine, on screen in live capturing there's some light/colours distortions, but in the shot in the gallery is perfect. The app sometimes crashes, but it's still usable.
Shots with her+ shows a good quality in low light with good noise reduction and details compared to stock camera app. When I'll got some free time I'll post samples.
I tried this camera, my phone is not rooted and wouldn't know about api2 able... Wouldn't mess up with system files... Anyway, I installed this camera and works... Photos have good detail on them, only problem is a bit too much noise and it creates a raw file that I never asked... Anyway, hope the developer manages to reduce noise and stop that raw file... Thanks

Oh yeah auto/touch focus works
kraatus90- Is this different from the version on the G5+ forums in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/themes/potentially-google-camera-port-t3684264
I've been playing with that one all day on my G5+ (non S variant, single camera), but the focus issue is driving me bonkers. Even the posted "workaround" which requires going to video and focusing, then going back and trying to lock focus... sometimes the focus will drift when the camera reinits upon photo mode.

I too have an unrooted phone and no, this doesn't work.
How did you get it to work without rooting and without enabling Camera2 API?

Are you on an S or regular Moto 5+? The S version, as I understand, has camera2 already enabled by default. I think the dual camera stock setup uses it internally so it was always there. As far as it working without root- the app itself doesn't require root to run, however if you have a phone that lacks Camera2 API, you'd need to root in order to fix that.

I have G5 plus. Yes, I know that app itself doesn't require root; indeed, I was referring to enabling the Camera2 API.
I guess I'll have to wait for Oreo update which will have it enabled by default :/

What makes you think that? Api2 has been around since Lollipop, I think phones leave it disabled when it isn't needed by the stock camera. For example, the G5S plus (which this thread is referring to) has it enabled, even on Nougat, and I think that's because the dual camera thing required some fancy magic in the stock app to make it work, and that was accessible via api2.
BTW, I'm not rooted, but I unlocked my bootloader and changed the build.prop through recovery to add the line. Still mostly stock on my G5 plus (non S variant, like yours).
moto has opted for 32bit operating system and apparently the google camera port only works with devices with 64bit os

I gave this a try. Honestly I'm not seeing any difference between the stock moto camera and the google camera after I added persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 to my build.prop
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, I dunno. I'll try taking some photos outside.

Also there are so many settings in the camera app it's tough to tell which ones actually make a difference. I'm pretty underwhelmed by this big goose chase for a better camera. Any help anyone?
