Hi guys, few days ago I started testing my op3's sensors with daily usage apps and sensor test ones.
So when using test apps for test orientation sensors like gyroscope or accelerometer the app shows that the device is constant moving, when it's leaning on a table too.
Could you test your op3s in the same way and let me know? Give me your opinion please, thank you.
(Excuse for my bad English)
Are you on Oxygen OS or on cm13? because I flashed cm13 on couple of my previous phones(Nexus 5 and Moto Turbo to be precise) and was facing the exact same problem. photosphere used to drift away even when the phone is stable and using a cardboard was a nightmare. It didn't resolve even when I reverted back to stock. rom I was looking for a solution and yet to find one. Just for this reason I am afraid to unlock and flash cm13 on my OP3.

I'm running Oxygen stock, and I have not problems using apps like streetview, whatching photospheres. The only way I have to find out this problem is to use sensor test apps. Does your OP3 do the same using one of those apps?
Could anyone try one of those apps on his OP3 and let me know?

I have it on my N3. Fingerprint reader is the only thing that doesn't work. Haven't tried the O-click 2.0, but it is represented in the settings menu.
Which nightly are you using? 20120320 just boots to a black screen with only the statusbar visible and unresponsive, for me.
e: 20 and 19 have this bug. 20120318 seems to work so far, by which I mean I can actually start the initial setup process.
e2: Stock camera app seems buggy. First few times it wouldn't start, then it started working, but the second time you launch it it breaks the camera for all apps. Installing a third party camera app seems to fix it.
The way CM implements the rotating camera is nice though. It pretends the phone has two cameras, and when an app asks for the front camera (e.g. Skype) it'll rotate it for you and flip the image. Only downside is that manual rotation doesn't flip the image once you pass the half way mark.

I just flashed the March 23rd build. So far I've only had a few hours with it but it's running really smooth. Here's a few notes:
I was running a rooted chinese coloros rom and cm12 has fixed the issue with not being able to pick up 5Ghz wifi.
No issue with the defaul camera app or any others
The fingerprint sensor is still broken as well as the button
My proximity sensor is broken. I downloaded a toolbox and it's not detecting the promixity sesnor at all. I've read you can fix this by flashing the modem but I can;t seem to find them. I saw some posts about the 1+1 having the same issues with recent cm12 nightlies so I'll keep flashing nightlies until I go home for the weekend and I'll try to find the Chinese N5207 modem with the help of my fleunt in Chinese parents.

Sorry, I'm not sure which one was the latest nightly i was on, can't check either since I'm back on ColorOS on that device at the moment. But i think the latest i tried might have been somewhere around March 18:th.

I'm installing it now, just waiting for it to boot, though it seems to be taking forever, and I can't connect to adb for logcat.
Does it take > 30mins or so at first boot? Did you use CWM or TWRP recovery? Anything else that needed doing to get it to work?
TIA

So the 20150327 doesn't work for me at all. The 20150323 does, with the minor issues mentioned above.
Does anyone else see the VOOC charging not work? Any clues as to how to enable it?
does it work for chinese n3 also ??

Actually, I lied, the VOOC charging did work, but wierdly sometimes the light on the charger didn't come on (it still charged quickly).
I've just installed (without wipe) the 20150403 and that works a treat. Only visible change is that screen elements with not standard res'n are now centred rather than bottom-middle aligned.
Loving the CM12 ROM - even battery life isn't much reduced and Lollipop is a great upgrade.

Guys any updates with the latest nightlies? Is the fingerprint working or any other issues?
why
why I can't Install to my oppo N3 R831K ?
cm12.1 nightlies - nearly, but not quite.

So I had lots of suspends of death with recent cm12.1 nightlies, but it seems to have calmed down a bit now. Still takes a while for screen to come on after sleep though and reboots on resume maybe twice / three times a day - only when on battery.
No fingerprint support yet - doubt that'll be there until Android M as there's no native Android support for fingerprint sensors in L - Samsung devices have had the Samsung reader backported, so they're golden, but I don't think the OPO / Oppo will get this attention.
The other big gotcha is video - nothing working unless you can get the Oppo ColorOS camera working (I've not tried). Stills are fine though.
I've tried again to get the Oppo camera working, using some of the newer ports to the OPO.
Still no joy
xposed, gravitybox and nova launcher is making ColorOS pretty tolerable though.
Any Camera app errors when switched to front facing camera. Snapchat also become unresponsive when switched to front facing camera. After many months of trying to figure out why, I've come to the conclusion that I must not have a front facing camera! I found this ridiculous since the G3 was advertised with one and even states on the T-Mobile site that it has one. I gave up on continuously clearing the app's cache and switched to google camera. (Its easier to switch to front camera on stock app than google cam) so as long as I didn't switch into the front camera the app worked fine and pictures with the rear camera are beautiful! I don't even get the blueish tint that many others get. After the lollipop update I can't even access my camera apps without them erroring or becoming unresponsive. Why would I be having so many troubles with a much anticipated cell phone that I tried very hard to attain? I would absotutelylutely love some help with this! I kinda need this phone to last me in good condition throughout college. Any and all help would be appreciated!
Thank you.

Sounds like he's on a bad ROM with a bad camera app...that or a kernel with bad camera support

I am not rooted, stock lollipop update from T-MOBILE.
You were 100% stock and not rooted and took the update?....have you talked to tmo?

No, not yet. I wanted to see what someone here on XDA would know about it first. Maybe if rooting would be a good idea? But yeah I see what you're saying. I should probably check with T-Mobile.
Hi all
What's everyone using for your camera app?
I find the standard camera OK for stills, but the auto focus is awful, I've not managed to take a picture of anybody's face without blur,picture gets deleted straight away.
Quite disappointed, my Nexus 5 could at least take a picture of someone smiling without blurring.
No issues here using the stock camera ...
Have you tried other apps? If yes, are results better?
Some people were reporting hardware related focus issues. Check different apps, if all have problems focusing it's probably hardware's fault. (but it's also pretty easy to fix).

I've tried a cold of apps(snap camera, and a old version of Google camera) snap camera seemed slightly better but kept crashing. How would a hardware fault be easily fixed?
Im running freedom rom latest community build.

Multiple people reported fixing the problem by stuffing something in the gap beside the sensor (the phone needs to be opened, obviously). There is a video guide, if I remember correctly (sorry, don't have links).

as the title says, recently when I open my camera app, the rear camera is unable to focus no matter what I do, the same happens with snapchat and other camera apps. I was wondering if this is an issue within the rom or if its a general OP3 issue and if anyone could help me attempt to fix it.
I'm on SultanXda's rom with the 19th of Feb patch. (would post this on the rom's page but my account is too new to reply on that)
Thanks in advance
Even I have this kind of issue and I am using resurrection reimx ROM. The camera is not focusing. Neither in the camera app nor in the apps like snapchat.
Hope someone has a solution for this.

really hope so, bit troubled at the moment since I can't take any photos
Just tried with rom-delieverd-snapcamera, and the focus is just working fine.
Just touch the screen, where to focus and snap.
Maybe you can give us some hint to reproduce?

sadly touch focus isnt working on my phone, starting to think it might be a hardware issue instead since it just suddenly started happening. I'm not too sure what is different from when it was working either :/ just that one day touch focus stopped working and auto focus stopped as well.
So you can wait for an update, or any other reported issues with focus on sultans rom oder you might try another rom, if it still exists, to make sure, its not a HW issue.
Ehy guyz, it is an hardware problem. U can fix it opening the phone and using some scotch to maintain in place the camera. Or send it in RMA. Or use a magnet near the camera, out of the phone's case as is possible to see in attached photo
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).
