Photosphere on LG G3

Hey guys, I'm planning to order the LG G3 from AT&T today but wanted to first check if the photo sphere works. I hear there are issues with the focus (maybe something related to the laser focus). Could someone with an LG G3 install the google camera and give it a try reporting on the quality of the image?
THANK YOU!

Google camera works great. Here is a few pics. Focuses in very quick too. No settings for 4k recording tho. Sorry for the boring pics lol, i would say image quility is just as good from a stock google camera app

Thanks for the reply. Can you give the photosphere a try and see if the pictures still come out clean? I've that while the camera app works, the photo sphere doesn't. Thanks!

Thanks for this. I think it looks okay but this is a partial image. Any way to take the full one? Thanks again.

So how do you view a photosphere on the G3?

Google camera and Google Photos apps are all you need (Photos comes with G+ app, not as a standalone app) I have taken some photosphere pics both in and outdoors without issues, worked well and the results were quite impressive on each. Again, stock gallery app doesn't support this feature.

[Q] Camera Firmware Issue, Unusable

TL;DR - Camera firmware updated on Google Edition, largely unusable since. Any fixes?
Here's the tale. My camera was excellent for the past year or so, and served me well no matter what ROM was being used. One fateful day, I was going to share something to a friend on Google+ while using the Google Play Edition ROM (really very excellent) when I was presented with this message:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I didn't think much of it, but let it sit while it did this. I eventually came back to the phone after several minutes, only to find the message still there.
I killed Google+ and opened my camera. I was presented the same message that the camera firmware was updating and to wait. I let it sit for about half an hour. I tried again only to receive the same message. Eventually I was presented a black screen with the camera controls, and was able to switch to the front camera. However, the back camera was still only a black screen. I restarted and had the same issue.
I reflashed to a stock based ROM (Insane) and was presented with the same issue, only this time no warning about firmware upgrades in progress - just black screen on the rear camera. At this point I decided an ODIN would probably take me back to where I needed to be, so I ODIN'ed a stock image. The issue was still persistent, but the camera would work every once in awhile now. It was a very rare occasion, but sometimes the back camera would flicker into life and allow me to take pictures as usual. Infuriatingly enough, the first time it started working was when I was trying to show a friend of mine, also into Android, the issue.
Non-TW based ROMs do not work with the rear camera now. The front camera is still working, and sometimes allows videos to be taken.
TW based ROMs rarely work with the rear camera now. The front camera is still working, and sometimes allows videos to be taken.
Does anyone have any ideas on remedies for this issue? Is there a stock Samsung Galaxy S4 camera firmware flashable? I've searched around, and decided to yield to the higher XDA powers of knowledge after no returns.

Cardboard- getting double vision?

Hi,
The cardboard still works on games which have their native implementation of side-by side graphics. It also worked on apps which were using cardboard v1 sdk. The cardboard template I used to make mine was http://pcpress.rs/download/MojAndroid/print_yourself.pdf
Now, in cardboard v2 apps, the left and right images are way apart from each other, so, its impossible for human eyes to focus.
Here is a screenshot :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So, is there any way to make cardboard apps work on this device?

an update, I experimented with https://www.google.com/get/cardboard/viewerprofilegenerator/ and this is what i came up best with:
Its a bit blurry/pixelated, but the ppi of our phone is way too low for stuffs like vr. Might not work for your eyes and lens.

Thanku soo much that worked well till now i was using a custom viewer profile made for one plus u can find it in the link below .... that also solved the issue of double vision but still its little blurry i guess its the matter of ppi proper setting of ppi may solve the issue i am not able to create a custom viewer profile so it will be really helpful if someone finds the fix..... thanx again

Hi guys...
Had this working fine before and now it's screwie..
Gear VR works fine.
Google Cardboard when starting , has the inter-lense adjusted to far apart. The two images are seperated to much.
Is there a way to start from scratch (by deleting some config files?)
The left and right displayed image need to come together / closer.
Ive deleted cache/data for Cardboard and uninstalled / reinstalled
Anyone have any ideas ?

Blurry pictures with camera

Hello, I've got an interesting problem with camera. Sometimes it takes brilliant sharp photos, and sometimes, unfortunately quite often, it shoots pictures which are blurry. It can be seen even without zoming, that it is blurry. I've tried manual mode (ISO, exposure, manual focus), using tripod, cleaning lens and laser, using different light conditions, etc... Nothing helps. It is like camera shoots according to its mood. I will post 2 pictures taken in succesion, one is sharp and one blurry. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks

Try V10 camera.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/themes-apps/root-v10-camera-ported-to-g4-t3366878

Set HDR option to auto or turn ot off, that might solve your issue.

Thank you both for answers, but neither seems to fix it. I am not sure If I am not doing something wrong, but it is the same with another camera apps too. And it usually occurs when taking photo of some objects far away. Android 6 v20d.

I have the same problem. I've only had the the phone a couple of days. Sometimes the pictures are wonderful other times it kind of stutters in and out of focus. I haven't been able to solve the problem so I'm sending it back for a replacement.

You can't do anything wrong with this camera, specially on auto mode.Sounds like hardware problem. Send it back.

i've the same problem, any idea?

Do you send it back? Do they resolve the problem? This problem makes me crazy.

Weird back cam issue when holding phone vertically

Hey fellow OP5T owners,
I recently upgraded to BluSpark r106 (probably completely unrelated) on OOS 5.0.4 and today I noticed that my cam has a weird bug on the bottom of freshly taken pictures when holding the camera vertically (stock cam).
It does NOT happen when I am holding it horizontally, and sometimes it doesn't occur when you switch to the gallery fast enough after taking the photo.
It also does NOT happen in portrait mode at all, but when I'm holding it vertically in Pro mode and in normal auto Picture mode.
Video is not affected in any way.
To me, it looks like the processing of the picture gets messed up because the pictures come out fine in the gallery after taking the photo, and after a very short timespan, the artifacts pop up in the final picture.

I'm assuming you're using the standard, unmodified camera app that comes with OOS. If that's the case I would suggest you download any of the third party camera apps that are available in the Play Store and see if you can replicate the same problem. If the problem does not appear on another camera app, then it's almost 100% likely that is a software issue related to the camera app and the kernel might be a possible culprit.
If that's the case in your case I would wipe dalvik/cache and flash stock kernel and see if the issue is resolved.

Same issue with third party camera apps like Open Camera and the Nokia Cam that floated around here somewhere.
I'm now dirty flashing stock OOS 5.0.4, then check if it solves the problem and then go back to modifications.
Thanks for your input!
Edit: I tried it out twice now, both time same results, the issue is solved with a dirty flash of OOS 5.0.4 and Magisk, and is replicatable by flashing BluSpark r106.
It seems to interfere with the cam, especially when using touch to focus.

Same here. Thank you for your post! I was worried that it was hardware related.
