Problem: Whatsapp In-App Photos are blurred - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I have the problem with the Whatsapp In-App Camera.
If I take a photo with my Android cam, everything is sharp and in focus.
But if I use the in-app camera to take a photo, it focuses and then it's blurred, I can't use it to get sharp photos.
Is that normal? And is there a "hack" to get this work?
Thank you

I have the same issue with OnePlus 3T Nougat

instagram ruining photos?

Hello! This is my first post here in the galaxy s5 forum... has anyone noticed that instagram blurs photos? I have taken quite a few awesome shots with this camera and even when im editing them in instagram they look great, but when I upload it the picture looks all blury.. does this have something to do with the high quality image process thing on instagram?
I find that Instagram definitely lowers the quality of photos. It seems the only photos that are perfect quality with Instagram are photos take on the iPhone.... :/ I wish they would change this for Android. A 16MP camera is a shame to waste.
This is a known bug with the crappy instagram app on Android.

Is there a way to disable camera photo processing???

Alright so as the title above says, I want a way to disable photo processing because in my opinion, photo processing totally ruins the photo's quality, so if you all have a suggestion or an idea feel free to share it with me and other z2 users.
By the way, I think it's possible because I downloaded Aosp 6.0 by rcstarr6696 and it didn't have camera photo processing and the photo I took with front facing camera( which is well known for taking 100% pink :laugh:looking photo in low light) it didn't had grain or anything I was completely cut off guard, hope you all know a way to disable it :good::fingers-crossed:
Download google camera or snap camera from the play store. You can also flash camera next or moto camera if you are rooted.

If you've UB'd then there is no post processing..

save pictures without AI effect

Hi ppl.
I'm owning an honor 10 for a few weeks now and I played a lot with the AI feature of the camera. Unfriendly sometimes the original photo is better than the AI one. As I can switch between original and AI in the gallery I'm wondering if it is possible to safe a picture afterwards without these effects?

Did you figure it out? I have the same problem
Yes, after you toggle the AI effect off, you share your image to dropbox or something similar. This will be uploaded as the original without the AI effect.

AI Color Mode (photos)

I recently updated to 9.0.0.206 and expected to see the AI Color Mode for photos which should be there since .195:
https://www.xda-developers.com/huawei-mate-20-pro-mate-20-x-ai-color-mode-photos/
However, I don't seem to find it anywhere in the camera app. Did someone have more luck?

Just to clarify - I'm not talking about AI color in video, that's there and working for quite some time now, but specifically, since 9.0.0.195 the same capability should work also for taking photos (as per the XDA link in opening post)

You can "snap" or take a picture while recording a video..

Thank you, I wasn't aware that you can take picture while recording! However, when you do it, the photo taken doesn't have the AI colors, it's just regular photo as I just tried
waited feature worried now
im on .187 firmware c432 from Portugal
i have heard of this ai photo feature and i was waiting for it because i think it would be amazing.
i read what ai photo is in i was expecting this in .195 firmware.
if OP does not have this feature what does this mean?
is this a asian feature only?
is the feature in more like macro mode and OP havent seen this?
im fallowing this
You can simulate this by taking a photo in aperture mode, view the photo in the gallery app, click on the aperture icon then select filters then mono. Sets the background to B/W and the main focus image stays colour.

How To Guide I am fed up of this ****ty camera processing of Nord 2.

The stock camera app of Nord 2 is ****. It over processes the images and the photos don't look like they are taken from a 50MP camera.
Any suggestions on what to do or some good GCam you can suggest?
Some examples? High mp sensors suffer in low light and have a more shallow depth of field especially up close to subjects. An accurate AF lock is important because of the narrow DOF; example, always try to get a AF lock on the subject's closest eye when shooting a face.
Adjust your shooting style according to the camera's strengths and weaknesses. See as the camera sees not as your eyes see. Human vision has exponentially more processing power and an incredible imaging system more so than any camera.
I want a proper gcam version if available or any better alternative that stock.
Always disable HDR option and pictures will look a lot better (sadly the app doesn't remember this setting so you have to turn it off each time) . The HDR process in the Nord 2 is absolutely awful .
Download the first file in this link. Photos taken with the primary camera will be much better, though I don't think Night Sight works. https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-wichaya/f/dl5/
DISABLE HDR. It's a known issue.
But you can't disable HDR when taking photos directly in other apps (whatsapp, telegram, etc)? I had OP8T and it had same issue and I had returned it...
GCam won't give you 50MP. AFAIK the only way to get 50MP on stock Nord 2 is by using the Extra HD feature in the stock camera app.
I'm curious to know if people with rooted devices have this capability enabled in the API. Let us know please

I don't think HDR and other processing options are enabled for 3rd party apps (same goes for the ultrawide lens, you can't use it in other apps) for me whatsapp and telegram pictures look good (but they are heavily compressed)

50Mpx is available in some GCAm versions (Wichaya and Nikita if I remember correctly, BSG and Greatness don't have the full resolution option) , but the 50mpx full resolution of the sensor is totally useless (not only with the nord 2 , but generaly with all other phones) , 12mpx pixel bining gives you better image processing, less noise , etc... a quick look at the reviews explain very clearly why is not a good idea to use the full resolution (50, 108mpx etc...) of a phone sensor.
Personally I use the BSG 8.4 v10 version and pictures are great, Google HDR+ implementation give a lot better results than stock app

Was this on stock or rooted? Btw for me the 4:1 binning is not something desirable since I stack very low light photos, run my own denoising and various other process. Hence why I need the full sensor data made available to apps like OpenCamera

Yes, IM apps do compress photos but that's different story than colour fidelity. In my time with 8T the colours in photo app and telegram/whatsapp were simply blown out of proportion: something normal-red in real life was glowing like burning Mars in 8T photos. After disabling HDR in camera app the photos looked ok (though still overprocessed hence IMHO OP3 photos looked better!) but in whatsapp/telegram I still had same issue with stupid extreme colours...
