Zoe is hardware dependant, so we won't get it.

That's so sad ,thanks !
we will maybe need custom kernel therefore without source not working and some devs who could make the port working correctly...there is already a camera app which has enabled ZOE but maybe without source code of sense 5 kernel not working because it have to be enabled there :/

We think.
We don't even know that for definite yet.
I suspect a tie to the version 2 ImageChip in the One will be a requirement, and even if we can somehow convince the APK to accept compatibility I sincerely doubt the v1 ImageChip in the HOX will have the programming capable of processing the command from the Camera app.

HOX gets Video Highlights and an animated Gallery, ONLY when viewing the Gallery sorted by Events. It has frequently been mistakes as Zoe...but Zoe is a CAMERA shooting mode and NOT the animated Gallery.

maybe we just need then to lower resolution to 4mp or so and maybe also more cpu power for camera then...but we will see when we will get source code

Zoe has been ported to OneXL so i don't think that processing power is the problem, also ImageSense v2 is not a problem, because it's working on One XL.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2436347
One XL is Qualcomm device, so they already had proper libs, for HOX is different story, and i think that kernel sources wont help with this... htc would never release source for something like Zoe
its just a matter of time :good:
Has the New camera API for Android 5.0 become available now that we are getting 5.0 roms?
Really looking forward to using the new features.
If not, what aspect of these new things are we waiting for to get support? Is it something in AOSP that we have to wait for, or something with the apps or roms themselves?

Do you mean for AOSP 5.0 or LG's own 5.0 rom?
I know that AOSP and all the roms using it's base, can't really handle the camera of the G3.
Could you specify?

I suppose the question applies to both, but in this case I'm just asking about CM12.

Well you're gonna get the new API, but it's going to be drastically limited since the LG camera needs an LG driver.
So you might have a feature more or two, but it's really no use when the camera is degraded to 2011 quality and video is only 15 fps.
There is a lot more to this than the API of the operating system. The driver is where the magic is at.

isn't there a way to port that driver to AOSP? i find it hard to believe we are going to get stuck with this quality

I actually put up a post some time ago asking the same question, but the answer remains the same, it's probably not going to happen any time soon. Not to mention other problems that relates to G3 + AOSP. Example could be the IR remote controller.
I know that some developers had luck with AOSP + LG G2 with the camera, where they ported it, but AFAIK it was more or less crashing all the time and missing features and functions, so at the end of the day it wasn't really worth the effort.
Now what I have done is simply use LG's Lollipop and then tweak it all the way to AOSP, retaining all the good stuff
LG's rom can actually be made very nice including in performance and that comes from a guy whose old phone was a Nexus 5 with Lollipop
The ports of LGs camera always worked great for me on AOSP. And given how ridiculously simple the camera app is for the G3 I'd expect it to be even easier to get working.
I'm OK with sticking on stock Lolipop Roms if that means having access to the 5.0 Camera API. I just have to wait to get there since I'm on VZW.
Are you able to use the API on your Lollipop stock rom?

The lollipop roms from LG do not feature a camera driver for the new camera2 api. That is a shame for two reasons. First of all the new api gives you a lot of new options (manual mode, raw export among others) which in turn enable developers to implement neat tricks like the super sensor from A Better Camera. Overall a huge opportunity! Secondly the LG Flex2 with the exact same camera module (AFAIK) has the new api.
So please everyone ask LG about that. They might eventually listen. Or maybe some rom developer could port the driver over from the Flex2.

That's really sad. If the gflex 2 Roms have it and it is indeed the same module, is there any way to get it from there and add it to our stock based Roms?

That's what I'm hoping for. . . Anyone?
is there any luck of us getting this functionality on our phone ? does it require a firmware update from lg for the camera ?
because cyanogemod/aosp has the api already included. so it makes me think its the firmware which is lacking

Indeed it is the firmware. However XCam LG by xdabbeb acheives much if what I'd hoped for from the camera API. Bitrate/compression control, RAW (DNG format) support, ISO control and some shutter speed settings.

In the discription it states:
This app takes full advantage of Lollipop's Camera2 API, and therefore requires it to be properly implemented in your Android ROM. If your device runs on Lollipop, and still the app is not compatible with it, please contact your ROM provider (e.g. Samsung, LG) and ask them to fully implement Camera2 API
You can see if it works on your phone with this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera2_compatibility_test
No !LG cut the camera api2 part!
Just ran the compatibility test and none of the features are compatible... too sad, hopefully LG releases the next UI with manual controls.
I hope so :fingers-crossed:, It drives me mad when I see my friend with lumia 1020 and its manual settings

G3 never get camera api2...
G4 here : = business
From what I've read in other posts the LG G3's hardware isn't even capable of being upgraded to the new Camera API 2 that was implemented on some devices recently.
My A2 Lite is arriving today and I'm looking at the great results people are seeing using Google Camera mods, but I'm kind of stumped why we need to go through the whole process of rooting our phone to enable the Camera2 API. Why isn't something like this included? I always just assumed it was part of Android itself. Any chance of it being included at some point in the future?
I really don't think so. Never happened before AFAIK.

They are camre2 api enabled out of the box as far as i know and just having a update about it plus they are flagship phones
push on google
what about push on google? here: issuetracker.google.com/issues/117853983 A1/A2/A2 Lite using Android One ROM and google release this, so it on them to do it, or?
I searched a new phone with good ROM support. After some readings of XDA's threads, I just bought RN8Pro, waited a week for unlocking and tried few ROMs.
It ended up that some newer RN8Pro has a slighty different front camera's hardware that is not actually supported by custom ROMs, as it has been discussed in some threads (like this one : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...xperience-official-aosp.4059977/post-83570951 )
I didn't saw this information before buying, so maybe it is useful that this will be more visible to people who want to buy this phone.
If you have some news about fixing front camera, feel free to respond.
That is a problem that I also face
The front camera does not work on any MIUI with Android 9. But on MIUI with Android 10 it works well...
The problem is that every ROM requires me downgrade to MIUI with Android 9.
Same problem here.
Bought 2 devices 2 weeks ago, unlocked a few days ago and installed crdroid 6.11.
Front camera is not working, GCam crashes on start.
On another device, bought in october the front camera works well with GCam and other camera apps.
Hopefully someone finds a quick fix.
If this camera is a different model, can we identify it using AIDA64?
In AIDA64 -> Peripherals , mine says Samsung ISOCell S5K3T1. I don't know if this is the new model.
EDIT: I read that it's a new revision of the same model so I think this "method" won't work.

Did your front camera work in custom roms?
My sensor is too Samsung ISOCell S5K3T1 and not work on Android 9 with MIUI and custom roms.
Same case for me, the front camera is "Samnsung ISOCell S5K3T1" and I installed evolution X 4.7 and everything works except the front camera, how sad, I haven't found a way to make it work. I asked in an official rn8pro telegram channel and they only told me to stay in Rom Stock with miui until Xiaomi releases the firmware code for these new sensors. The newer rn8pro devices are the ones that have this problem since their front camera sensors are new.
It seems I have the same problem. I wasn aware of that when buying!
I tried the Roms:
Pixel Experience
Evolution
crDroid
Same result on all Roms, everything works except the front camera. As soon as I install another cam app like Gcam, it crashes.
I wish I knew this before buying Note 8 Pro
I hate MIUI, I was going to flash custom ROM as soon as possible. But... Revolut doesn't work without selfie camera. I hope I can relock bootloader and return the phone.
The strange thing is that no custom rom developer can solve this problem
+1 for me being a victim of this new front camera module!
Given the situation right now I/we have to compromise. Working front camera with MIUI (it's unusable for me and I've tried) or no working front camera + custom ROM.
I chose the latter (Pixel Experience 10).
If I do need a front camera I'll have to get my LG G2 (LineageOS 16.0).
Either Xiaomi releases the code for the new front camera module or it leaks somehow. Whichever comes faster.
Compass.
I have also the same Problem.
Samsung ISOcell S5KGW1
Same problem here. Does it need just a rebuild with a more recent kernel? Anybody have any advice how to start that?

Same question here!
What I can confirm that the newest Pixel Experience ROM has the selfie cam working perfectly, I am just not a friend of that level of Google integration.
So I guess we have to wait for one of the other maintainers to take a stab at this, or try it ourself ...
I guess it's a lot more than linking some new libraries, so if anyone can point me in the right direction, maybe a howto, that would be much appreciated.

The front camera is working with Pixel Experience 11 (Build: 16th of march of 2021).
I installed Pixel Experience 11 today and the front camera works (didn't crash so far either).

Front camera is also working on HyconExperience 1.0.
Any suggestions for fix nusantara 3.1
Any one try this
For Devices which have new camera sensor and not working front camera in any Non Cfw roms.
This fix will make your front camera working in any Non Cfw roms.
Steps:- go to twrp and flash

2. boot.img
If you feel crashing only than flash
3. Permissiver
