Hello,
Whenever I use the camera button on my ZL to open the camera (which is of course what it's for ), the settings I last used are reset and I end up back in (the crappy) superior auto mode!!
When I use the camera icon in app drawer it goes back to the correct settings that I set.
This is very very annoying because:
1) Superior auto sucks
2) I want to use multi auto focus mode because all the other modes have auto-focus (so there's no use for the ZL's button).
When I open with camera button and press settings, it also goes back to "good" settings.
Any help?
Thanks
Well, I can only say that this is by design.
Camera launch by camera key called "quick launch" and generally itended for situations when you need to take picture in a hurry, without time to fiddle with settings, in any possible situation - hence default to full auto. In camera settings you can also make it to instantly take picture, without even requiring second press.
If you want to launch camera in "leisure pace" with custom settings and all, you have to use camera app icon.

I understand. However with the ZL, for me, using the hardware button is by far easier and faster and I don't necesarlly use it to "quickly take a picture" but more to open the camera all the time.
It would be OK if superior mode was in fact any good
I don't know if I'm missing a "save" button somewhere, but is it not possible to save the camera settings in the stock camera app? I almost always want HDR and Video HDR enabled, it defaults to Normal whenever I exit the app, always. Why why? Any solutions or workarounds?
One M8 running Viper ROM v1.8.1.
A lot of times when I open the camera app, I see nothing but a black screen and the on screen buttons (back/home/recents). No matter where I tap, I can't see anything. However, I can still hear that it's still working in selfie mode, because if I tap where the shutter button should be, I hear the countdown, and I actually get a photo in my gallery afterwards. In order to get the camera running properly I basically have to kill the app, clear it from recents and do this several times, hoping that it'll let the camera app run properly. It's kind of pot luck if it does or not. Usually I have to do this process 4-5 times before the camera app finally opens and I can actually see the viewfinder and choose the rear camera and such.
Does anyone know what might be happening? I've tried clearing the camera app data, and resetting everything in the app to default and that didn't help.
Same issue mate
I'm on same rom v2.5 cleared data and still no joy did you fix yours?
Hi xda-friends
Today I want to share with you a way to allow any app to rotate the phone 180 grades, as it does in the built-in camera app, to use the front-facing camera in a more natural way for selfies and front-facing video calls. Here some apps where it will be useful to enable this rotation:
- Google Allo
- Google Duo
- Hangout
- Instagram
- Messages Google
- Whatsapp
I want to leave clear that I'm very happy about this device, however, considers this a way to "solve" the deficient location of the camera in some situations.
Download this app and then follow the video instructions:
"Rotation - Orientation Manager"

PD: Hope it useful for you, and sorry for the English grammar/spell errors.
This one even works with snapchat, I tried a few which turned snapchat too but in the end the picture was still upside down. With this one you can use snapchat perfectly fine with the device upside down
It's nice and you even can block the annoying "overlay detected" notification with AutoNotification, but still I have to grant app permissions to change system preferences every time I reboot. Anyone knows a workaround?

Ya inside the App > Settings > Disable Toast messages and Notification this will hide this overlay toast messages and also the permanent notification in the notification area.
it's cool and it works even without root. i used it before i was able to unlock and root my device.
be careful, i forced rotation on all apps, even the launcher screen, and then i uninstalled the app. the always rotate was still active and i couldn't turn it off. i had to reinstall the app and disable rotation, then uninstall again.

How did you setup the rotation after you have root access? Is there a module for magisk?

How did you get it to work with snapchat? on newest xiaomi.eu it rotates the app, but the camera image rotates with the app, so in the end I get an upside down camera feed
Still not working for me. I'm using MIUI 9 global version on a mix 2s and it looks like it's working just until I take the photo. Right after I press the button the photo turns upside down. In videocalls I see myself in the right way but I'm upside down in my friends' screen.
Is there another fix? The bug still exists in MIUI 10?

Same problem using miui global dev
I'm looking to find some other solution for Snapchat and probably some other apps, let me do some research first and then I'll go back to all of you with, if possible, a solution.
i tried a Whatsapp Video Call and my image is upsidedown for other people
Nice app, unfortunately there isn't a preset that works with B612 application.
Has any of you fixed the WhatsApp video calls with this app? I was not able to do so :/
Great tutorial. Worked with google camera as well.:good:
It's not work in WeChat:crying:
for those like me who have the problem that when you take the photo on instagram the photo is turned upside down, just activate any filter and take the photo and it won't be turned upside down, I don't know why but it works, I suggest you look for some empty filter if you just want to take a selfie. Sorry for my bad english i'm italian
Its not working for me, imposible to use this phone as this way...
hey guys,
i just installed the modded google camera app and set it to be the default camera app. however when double tapping volume down, it still opens miui camera. i even tried to freeze miui camera with tb and now nothing happens, when double tapping volume down.
anyone know if there is a way to get this working?
