I have an auto focus problem when video recording with the OPPO Find 7a.
The camera auto focuses perfectly when not video recording, continuously readjusting focus when pointing at different objects. Once video recording has been started, however, focus is locked to the last focused length, and it does not auto refocus no matter how you move the phone. In other words, there is no continuous auto focus.
Since auto focus does work when not video recording, I believe this is a software problem.
I have tried the following:
Factory Reset
Updating ROM to ColorOS 2.0
But both methods failed to fix the camera focus problem.
I am looking to try the following:
Updating / Resetting the Kernel
However, I am not sure how to do this. Can somebody help me please?
Thank you community!:laugh:

Just tried to reproduce your problem on v1.2. No problem focusing when video recording.

Thanks for your test.
I actually did not have this problem until recently. I believe I may have messed up the camera part of the kernel.
I tried googling "oppo find 7a stock kernel", but could not find anything.
Would you know where I can download the stock kernel?
Thank you so much.

It's the boot.img. Download either v 1.2 or 2 Rom to computer depending which Rom you are using and extract from zip file. I don't think it is the kernel if you already tried the beta Rom and still have the problem.

You are right.
I flashed the boot.img (kernel, thanks for telling me!), and the focus problem in video recording is still present.
Would you have any suggestions as to what I should do?

I contacted my vendor and this is what they said:
...continuous auto-focus feature is not implemented yet in the video mode. OPPO assured that they are working on including this feature in future firmware updates.
Now I'm confused. I'm pretty certain that continuous auto focus works before.
Can someone double check with me?
Thank you so much.

Hi, I just checked again. There is really no problem in focusing when video recording for me. I move away from an object with words and come back. The words come into focus again. Maybe you should send or show them a sample video, or someone else can suggest something else.
I have same problem. If I recording video with different objects in near and far of me camera still refocused objective.
So recording some sceneries is not possible.

I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this problem; but on any CM Rom I am having problems with Snapchat in terms of recording time for recording time. For some reason it is not maximized (or doesn't go to the time allotted). The video stops extremely short, and only gives about one second of recording time. Does anyone that uses this know why?

I'm also having this problem, mine just records about 5 seconds and plays back like 3 seconds.
Has anyone found the fix for this?
This is still a problem!
Has anyone found a fix or a workaround for this problem?
Bump!! Running uXylon. Very short Snapchat video recording with both front and rear facing cameras. And i'm not sure if this is could be related but the video recording quality in Instagram is terrible -- very pixilated.
Sorry to bump this thread, but I've found the fix is to go into the settings and change the video quality from standard to low quality. Hope this helps everyone!
I have also found you can set the camera quality back to standard after performing the previous fix and the issue seems to disappear.

All you have to do is change the camera settings to low, and the camera orientation to 180 and it should work! I had this problem as well.

Had a dream about this... Try going to Camera app and go to video setting, in the recording setting change the video to a lower one. Then go back to Snapchat and see if that works for you. Mine was at 1080p and when I changed it to 720p it started working amazing. Try setting it lower if that doesn't work for you. Mine was only recording for 1 second and would stop, after this I can record the full length allowed now. Let us know if this works for you

Also, the in-call sound have kept disappearing, so I can't hear the person I'm talking to.
I'm changing rom to Jedi X today, excited to see if all of my problems will be solved.
Did anyone find a solution? I'm having the same issue and none of the solutions above worked for me.

Broke camera
wow
Thanks
I think the camera quality isn't a hardware problem but a software one. E.g. in darkness the camera doesn´t turn on the light when focussing.
In system/lib/hw is a file (camera.msm.8960.so) which should be changed but i'm not able to do this. There must be played with the values. Some clever guys did this in for other phones before.
My phone before was the LG 2x and in that forum they raised quality above 200% of the original one.
I attache the file to work with. Maybe here are some insiders too.
...the only problem is that the camera does not focus when the flash comes in darkness. Or it focuses too early or too late. When you turn on the flashlight on the phone permanently and take a photo, everything is fine. The problem is in CM 10.1 and 10.2.
Isn´t here somebody who knows a trick?

In focal camera you have the option to turn on flash as a torch. I turn it on then take a picture. That fixed for me but I have to agree. The camera quality is bad. Something must be done.
Just use a 3rd party camera app.

I tried some 3rd party apps but that didn't solve the problem that the camera doesn't focus when using the flash. This seems not to be an app problem, it's in the files from the rom like I attached above.
Or do you have a suggestion for an app that solves the problem with focus in darkness?

Hmmm...as for me I don't have that issue. I am using Epsilon V3 ROM by core720, which is based on stock. For camera app, I use snap camera hdr and the new focal camera.

Hey guys,
I really like the google camera but it seems like I can't get 4k (30fps) video recording up and running. If I switch it on, the camera force closes, no matter what I do or what version I use.)
Right now I am at the latest version of saneklic (2018-07-21; MGCamera_5.1.0.18_R5Plus_v.5.1.17_fix_crash.apk)
I know about the tutorial claiming you need to enable it in some "whyred.xml" which is in a "device feature folder" (a folder somewhere in system/etc/) or something like that, but there is no such thing in a custom rom: it exists only on MIUI. I've already tried every tutorial possible, but nothing helps.
4k is working with the lineage snap, the google camera picture quality is much better though and I really prefere the gcam (because of additional settings/mods)
Thank you very much, any help is very much appreciated. If someone can help me, I will donate you a coffee :highfive:

Hey man, I'm really disappointed so far by RN5, I couldn't find a way to record stabilized 4K on custom roms, not even with Open Camera which worked fine on MIUI 10. I have a two year old RN3 which records 4K with gcam (not stabilized) and takes slightly better photos than RN5.
So far i've tried RR, LOS and AEX. 4K recording crashes any camera I've used. Open Camera just gives an error. Waited 2 weeks to unlock bootloader, thinking it will open the gates of heaven. In fact been through hell since I unlocked(yesterday). Antirollback is like a minefield which I luckily avoided, then front camera barely works with gcam, some slight battery drain with custom roms and now 4K recording is broken. Feels like I've downgraded my phone.
Think I'll try to flash MIUI 10, root it, enable camera 2 api for gcam and use Open Camera for EIS enabled 4K. Btw the latest gcam by alone_in_dark works best, even front camera works quite good, try it.
Edit: I flashed MIUI 10, once I enabled camera2 api 4K doesn't work. So it's either 4K or HDR+. Thanks Xiaomi.

Can't say no to that. But since 4K (3840 × 2160 resolution) doesn't appear in open camera after enabling camera2 api, I don't think there's a fix for that. It appears only 4000 x 2000 2:1 which gives an error. I did manage to get 4K working with another third party camera, but without EIS. Because RN5 can record 4K with excellent stabilization it's a pitty not to use it. So now if I want to record something I just use another build.prop without cam2.api then reboot, and switch back to enabled cam2.api prop when I want to use HDR+ :laugh:

Hello my friend, it seems you can have it all, I finally found a way to record 4K with EIS while having camera2 api enabled. I'm really happy now and overall satisfied with the phone. Only issue remaining is the front camera HDR+ which is beyond my knowledge, hopefully someone else will come with a fix.
So now, how I managed to record 4K? I'm on MIUI 10 (8.7.12), and using latest blackbox kernel by KunalKene1797. Don't know if these have any effect, but I thought it's good to know.
The third party camera I'm using is Snap Camera, there are certain settings which need to be enabled. I'll post a video with the settings I used and which worked best. 4K Video Support and Use Camera2 API being the most important ones. There could be other settings which could improve the recording, but I like to stay on these stable settings, because I'm pleased with the results so far.
Here's the video with the settings needed in Snap Cam https://youtu.be/gRj9LhYWv5Y(video is back)
Here's the first 4K video https://youtu.be/oQGc4gXnGU0
A test for auto-focus https://youtu.be/V41k21qKQpE
No EIS sample vs EIS https://youtu.be/_qNFNs2gq74 VS https://youtu.be/00J-3cAzLjg
Edit 1: I also tried setting higher bitrate than the default 42, however in windows at the details on the first video it shows 40 total bitrate and when setting to 64 it shows 42, either way it seems the quality was marginally improved. I guess the phone can't write faster than that or the storage doesn't allow it.
https://youtu.be/Q7Lqlr-QanA
Some stuttering can be seen from 0:08 to 0:11, but I think that's because the phone started thermal throttling, it's very hot outside and from all the testing, phone was quite hot too.
I really hope it works for you as well, take care.

Hi! Thanks for all the details. I am using the latest miui 10, and WITHOUT api2 turned on, I used hedge camera app, and the 4k eis was working fine, but phone was droping the frames / stuttering the recorded video, which is a bit annoying.
I tested your setup, and I can see that its better, but still sometimes I can see some dropped frames. It happen to you too?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Yes, it happens to me as well, in the first 8 to 10 seconds, I think it's the cpu, it can't use EIS very well with 4K. Without EIS there are no dropped frames or stutter issues.
A suggestion would be to use a very fast micro sd card, haven't tested, but worth a try.
After about 4-5 minutes the phone gets quite warm and stutter is inevitable due to thermal throttling.
Flash this in TWRP to enable 4k recording in Google camera and other camera2 API-enabled apps

hi, sorry for my stupid question.
i just want to know, can i install gcam mod on realme 3?
thank for the answer
I've heard that this version from Arnova8G2 works:
- MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova-based_v.1.3d_TlnNeun_2.apk
You need to load this config: Realme_3_Config.xml (guide: how to load config files).
I don't have this phone, so I don't know if it comes with the camera2 api enabled. If it's disabled, you have to enable it first. I'm sure you can find a guide by searching online.
You can also find more apks from Arnova8G2 on this page and follow his thread here on XDA.

Warm thanks for your post!
I was testing 1.3c version on my new phone, but it was fail taking photo.
Only panorama and video were operating.
But, today I installed the configs file and now camera is fully operating.
After first HDR tests and quick analysis stock camera render better (Chroma boost disabled, not needed!).
(I use a standardized position from my seat to a sunny open door in the middle of the room. )
I already tested panorama in outside situation and it is GREAT, much better than stock.
Not tested night and video.
Overall comment: This phone is a top gun. No need to spend million.
Just waiting for usable root.
but whenever i click on the video button it closes the app

But after the latest update of March 2019 Android security patch and fix of some minor issues. The video mode of google camera is not working. When I open the video tab. Gcam automatically closes. When I do repeat. It also do the same every time.
I've also tried to install various apks of gcam version 6 but all those are show the exact same problem when open the video mode. Please anyone suggest me the fix of this issue ???. I will be very thankful to u guys.

Warm thanks for your post!
I was testing 1.3c version on my new phone, but it was fail taking photo.
Only panorama and video were operating.
But, today I installed the configs file and now camera is fully operating.
After first HDR tests and quick analysis stock camera render better (Chroma boost disabled, not needed!).
(I use a standardized position from my seat to a sunny open door in the middle of the room. )
I already tested panorama in outside situation and it is GREAT, much better than stock.
Not tested night and video.
Overall comment: This phone is a top gun. No need to spend million.
Just waiting for usable root.

Bro i also have the same problem with my realme 3. After the update, the video mode on gcam doesn't working. If u got the solution. Also help me.
Good news, I have found a working config for the latest update. You first have to download the apk from
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-fu24/#apk873
This is the apk called "fu24: MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_TlnNeun_4lens_V1.3.030119.0645-02j.apk". Then use these configs I attached.
Night mode, portrait mode, video , slowmo are working.

Bro Thanks for the post. But the problem still doesn't solve. Every thing is working fine but the video is in 720p. But if we switch into 1080p, the gcam stops and automatically closes like the previous one. If u have this problem, plz anybody fine the solution or any modified config.xml file for this problem.??
Thanks.
Does our phone supports video recording with 60fps? If yes what app?

Yes 60 fps is recording in this config. I don't judge the result.

Thanks for this configuration !
Everything is working in good day lights
But, both back and front camera's performance is very poor( like a 2mp camera) in LOW Lights and ARTIFICIAL Lights.
Kindly fix this issue !
Try this apk

Thanks harischeong! Your Google camera is working good in daylight but it takes pictures only in 8mp.
I have already found the best one which clicks pictures with full 13 mp on both front and back camera. (Use Nexus 6p on both cameras for better photos and You can change some settings as per your understanding)

So...
I tried to install several custom roms, but I have little single problem with them. On every rom quality of my camera just drops very much. Three is too many noise and pixels visible on photos and videos. I tried many apps and it didn't help.
My process of installing: TWRP - Format - Install ROM.
Maybe I should install firmware first?
Install Gcam MGC_8.1.101_A9GVx_snap and add Nuuutan2 xml , you will get great pictures and camera will work too.
I tried that, but there wasn't any change. Camera quality is also worse in Messenger and Instagram.
Maybe the worse quality of camera is reletad to the fact, that i don't install firmware before installing custom rom?
