The S21 camera shakes when in 1x zoom or more - Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions

The camera has recently been super shaky. In zoom 1x or more it's shaking.
Anything from 0.9 to 0.5 is smooth.
I believe it started after a software update (although not sure about this).
Android version - 12
One UI version - 4.1
Baseband version - G991BXXU5CVH7

Do you know how to fix this?

Camera problem (out of focus)

Noticed some strange behaviour on my S5830 :
- If I shoot a photo using Macro setting photo is nice and sharp
- If I shoot a photo using the Autofocus setting the photo is blurry (although in the display preview I see it's sharp) ???
Anyone having similar experience ?

Hey!
Do you have STOCK firmware? If yes, try to flash STOCK 2.3.3.
Flash Tutorial HERE.
CHEERS!
I have updated from stock German T-mobile 2.2.1 to (russian?) 2.3.3.
As I am not @ home right now can't tell what version exactly.
Is this a known problem at certain firmware versions?

Hey!
No, its not know firmware problem, but it exist sometimes. If this not solve you problem, try to flash like ..XXKC1(from samfirmware[its multi file, not single file]).
CHEERS!
I am a tweaker and have did quit some changes already and am happy with the status of the rest of the phone so I am not very eager to do another fw flash...
I did however already purchase Titanium backup....
Guess I'm gonna just have to try to flash (maybe best VillainROM 1.0) and restore from Titanium....... and hope to be back up and running soon
Will keep you guys informed ... thx in advance
Yesterday I have flashed VillainROM and photo's seem to be better now. Have to do some testing but it looks promising
VillainROM is cool btw ....
My ace
My galaxyace this with a similar problem in Cemera, my camera does not focus, nor even in the macro and auto focus (does not show any difference between the two) and smileshot also does not work, I tried to change the rom, I am now with 2.3.4 (base s830xxkph).
the problem first started when I put Cyanogen mod 7 and returned to 2.3.4 (I tried 2.3.3 (with multiple files), but the problem persists).
anyone have any ideas? sorry for english I'm Brazilian
If you select 3.2 mega pixels in camera settings photos will be sharper.

Sorry, it was a typo
Thx, works so far!
I unfortunately I have a problem, I cannot get rid of the tutorial screen permanently, as he does not accept the click on the screen. The only way to remove it is by using the android back button, but due to this the tutorial will be there on next camera start again =/
Also I cannot switch to front the front facing cam or video mode. But I CAN swipe and change the camera setting menu. I'm on CM 13.
Any Ideas?

Stock camera only work on default dpi(480)
Change your screen density to 480 or use appsetting(xposed module) to only change it to the camera
Oh, okay I see. Thx very much for the heads up!
I'm having a trouble with the gallery. It hangs up after launch and doesn't show the photos and only the outlines of the albums. Please help.
I miss the speed of sequential photos, the original rom was much faster, can you solve it?

Google Camera 3.2 Lens Blur - Low Quality

I'm running Lineage OS 13 by @Speedo.thc on Honor 7
I've installed Google Camera 3.2, the last version compatible with Marshmallow. I really like the app as its fast and simple. I tried taking pictures with Google Camera Lens Blur but the pictures are taken with very low quality and there are no options for me to change the Resolution. I tried with v2.7 as well and it has the same result. Does anyone else have this problem?
It looks like LOS can't handle lens blur at high quality, you should ask the dev of LOS about it!

As far as I know, Google Camera v3.2 is the last that is supported by Marshmallow.
Google Camera v4.0 and above required Nougat and newer versions
It's a pity cause I love the Lens Blur feature but all the photos from Lens Blur has very low resolution.

Google Pixel HDR+ camera working on x520 on Lineage

Tried camera from first post of this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/themes/google-camera-hdr-t3687312
Pic quality is best i had from this device, better than EUI.
Little unstable, but fully usable.

Not working, it save one pic, like photo camera and sound is recorded.

I need it only for normal pics and for this is great.
Also always liked blur mode.
For video i'm using footej, have it installed only because of video.

Now if someone can fix video recording and maybe it can be stock camera, like they do on le max 2 on some unofficial roms. Video recording was also problem on le max 2, but developer fixed this very easy, hope that our great @DarknessKiller, @codeworkx, @Lakku, @Rishabh Rao etc.. can fix this, we finally have really, really good camera on nougat.
Latest 1.3 version has lot of developers options, new option in settings which can be marked one by one. maybe is useful if someone wants to play...
In one APK there is only a feature called face retouching
And the other hdr+ enhanced

Face retouching is for selfie camera, it doesn't work for me, it capture photo, but does not do any post-processing.
Hdr is for main camera.

General Latest camera update reduces wide angle lens FOV by 15%

In a big downgrade, the latest Google Camera reduced the wide angle from .6 down to .7 so we're getting about 15% less area.
Comparison: https://ibb.co/Lr970jC
Here's an approximation of how much is lost:

I think you have to point out which version of the Google Camera you refer to. I am still on 8.5 and it shows 0.7 as selection.
I assume, you refer to v8.6 for Android 13.

Yes it's latest camera on android 13 . But .6 is what it "should" show, not .7
i am still on 8.5 android 12 and i see 0.7x. As a matter of fact i remember it always being at 0.7x since i got my pixel last month.
Are you sure it was at 0.6 at some point?
Yes. See the comparison images above. Those were shot with the two different versions. I uninstalled the camera update and goes back to .6. (see image below). For me it's very disappointing. Is it life changing? No, but it is a large difference and narrows the gap between the regular camera and the wide. I guess I'll just stay on old version of camera... Laaaaame. If you're interested, try uninstalling camera updates and see if you get .6

Just updated to A13 Stable and got the update to Google Camera 8.6. Still have 0.7 showing and no reduction of the FOV. Must be a Beta thing

.6 is what it was on Android 12 stable, 13 Beta and 13 stable. It's the newer camera app, nothing to do with android version.
.7 is reduced FOV, you're losing 15% if shows .7
No, I never had 0.6 on A12, always 0.7. What Pixel are you using?
Cheers
Tom
Pixel 6a. What saying is you're losing 15% from what the FOV of the camera should/could be. If never had .6 then never had the camera app which gave the full FOV, which possibly the 6 and 6 pro never had a camera version with .6. Have you tried uninstalling all updates to Camera yet?
Anyone interested to try for .6, I've exported my APK. You'll have to uninstall your current version in Play store and whatever version it reverts to probably needs to be older than or equal to 8.5

Then maybe this is a topic for Pixel 6a. Here is the Pixel 6 topic.
I am not disputing that you have that issue, just it's not happening on Pixel 6.
Cheers
Tom
It's already happening on Pixel 6. You have a wide-angle camera shooting at .7 when it's capable of .6
They are the same wide angle camera. I'm guessing you haven't actually tried to uninstall your camera updates nor tried to install the APK I uploaded...??
I will post over there as well, thanks for link to 6a forum.
Umm, that was like that already from the beginning. Always 0.7.
What makes you think the Pixel 6 camera is capable of 0.6?
Even I try to manually zoom out, it stops at 0.7.
The wide angle FOV is the the same of 114°, but the Pixel 6 has a standard FOV of 82°, while the 6a has a standard FOV of 77°.
And yes, I compared yesterday with an object in A12 and camera v8.5 and today with A13 and the update to v8.6 on the same object. No difference.
Maybe previously you didn't have wide-angle FOV of 114° with the Pixel 6a.
Cheers
Tom
Edit: after all this, it does seem can zoom out with the new version. Starts at .7 but can zoom out to .6. Weird
Weird your version is 8.5.200.429413596.06 and I reverted to stock and mine is 8.5.300. 8.5.200 isn't available on apkmirror.
In any case, I installed Open Camera and switched it to use Camera API2, it can only zoom down to .68 which is the same image as the Google Camera's .7 can capture. I tried several other camera apps and same result.
i don't recall seeing a .6 FoV ever and I've had this phone since launch. I'm on June update of the P6. And I can't downgrade to your version to see if there's a difference.
I can confirm the problem is real as posted by op. I have a p5a and since updating to a13 the ultra wide has gone from 0.6x to 0.7x. Now probably this is related to the app version and not to a13 itself but I can CONFIRM my p5a used to support 0.6x.
I uninstalled updates as op suggested and 0.6x did indeed come back.
Most phones in 2022 support 0.5x. 0.6x seems like the minimum a phone should support. But now with camera update, google decreasing it to even 0.7x doesn't make sense.
my camera is on 8.3.252.3911 i don't think i ever updated it (because i don't care)and its .7
whatever that is worth -pixel6 global
For me it was .7 since I have Pixel 6.
It never was .6

Lets clear something up about the cameras on these things. They do NOT zoom to very exacting 1 decimal place.
This is on a pixel 6 pro, but similar idea should apply to ALL;
Code:
adb shell dumpsys media.camera | grep zoom -A1
android.control.zoomRatioRange (1002e): float[2]
[0.67044258 20.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatioRange (1002e): float[2]
[1.00000000 20.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatioRange (1002e): float[2]
[1.00000000 20.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatioRange (1002e): float[2]
[1.00000000 20.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatioRange (1002e): float[2]
[0.84999305 10.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatioRange (1002e): float[2]
[1.00000000 10.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatioRange (1002e): float[2]
[1.00000000 10.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatio (1002f): float[1]
[1.00000000 ]
--
android.control.zoomRatio (1002f): float[1]
[1.00000000 ]
Now as you can see, the minimum zoom ratio on one of the cameras is "0.67044258", which is in between 0.6 and 0.7. So depending on how the software wants to present it, it can ROUND it UP to 0.7 or ROUND it DOWN to 0.6.
The software choice of rounding has ABSOLUTELY NO BEARING on what the actual minimum zoom level is.
I'm running Android 13, but there doesn't appear to be any difference in the actual images between the cameras with the lastest updates applied and having them removed.
I will say that I did see a difference between what you see on the camera's screen and what the camera actually takes at certain times. The screen at the widest camera setting (which shows as "0.7x" both on the latest update and not) is not as wide as the actual camera ends up taking. I'm wondering if the people that have noticed this have simply been viewing the screen, or have actually compared images taken from before the "issue" appeared vs now. I suspect there is a bug that is preventing the preview screen from showing the actual wide angle camera coverage, but that the camera actually takes the correct wide image. However the camera always took the "wide" image even when the preview screen did not correctly show the widest view before taking the image.
Currently (after I reinstalled the camera updates), my screen and actual picture show the same field of view on the widest setting, but several times during this process of uninstalling the updates and reinstalling the updates, the two fields of view did not match and the screen showed a more narrow field of view. I even tried force stopping the camera and it did not change or fix this issue.
EDIT - I will also say that checking the meta data for the wide angle camera for images taken under Android 12 and now under Android 13 (with and without the camera updates installed) all show 2.35mm. Now it would be hard for me to reproduce wide angle images taken under Android 12 now that I am on Android 13 (because I wouldn't be standing in the exact spot to take the Android 13 images), but I suspect there really isn't any difference between the actual images. I think any visual differences are only occurring on the camera's preview screen.
