Rear Camera wont focus (auto/manual) after downgrade to LP - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So my LG G4 (Fido(rogers) H812, Locked Bootloader) came with MM installed. Anti-Rollback version 0. Just now, I downgraded to H81210H to then flash a rooted image but I just checked the camera app and it doesnt seem to want to focus, whether in manual or in auto mode. The front facing camera does seem to adjust exposure based on focus point tho.
The ported V10 camera (v5.1) which worked flawlessly on MM crashes when I open it up.
Edit: and I've just noticed that my computer doesn't detect my phone anymore, whether its in the OS or in Download Mode. The notification for charging/mtp doesnt show up either, but it works on my laptop which doesn't have any LG drivers installed at all.

Oh, I remember it being for both LP and MM.
No need for FWUL, I ended up rooting it on the laptop, but the stock camera still wont focus. (Same goes for 3rd party cameras)

nope dev yener90 said it needed alot of time to make it work on LP. only MM.

What I thought of was installing TWRP-in-FIsH and then flashing a MM LG G4 Camera Zip, but I cannot find any on the forums.

Camera suddenly acting strange

Recently I noticed that every photo I take, are low in details and over exposures
I dont know what cause it, I changed roms several times before I notice it, and after I noticed it, changing roms back to stock's, or custom ones, didnt fix it at all
In the attachment, I included a sample
Another strange thing is, even after I reflashed the stock kdz using lg flasher, some of apps from the previous roms still exist
Can someone help me ?
Thanks

Try flashing 4.1 first and then 4.4 KDZ.

I think I found the problem, overexposure happens when flash is in "Auto" and "On" modes
but If the flash is set on "torch" mode in opencamera (only opencamera supports this mode), there isnt any overexposure at all
any solutions beside reflashing 4.1 kdz ?

Elephone P8000's camera is upside down and no ways to correct it.

Hi. Tried Cyanogenmod 12.1 and Resurrection Mix. In both cases, the camera started upside down and no ways to correct it. No camera flip button etc.
I used Philz and TWRP recovery images. Both same results.
What's happening here?

i Suppose the next step would be to back up your data ,ect and do a factory reset just to prove hardware or software
No. Nothing wrong with the phone. Tried all CM 12.1, Resurrection and even Eragon 9.9. No luck. Had to go back to stock rom and works fine.
On Elephone forum, they are saying that the driver are new.

The newest batches of Elephone P8000 come with a new camera module which is incompatible with the previous one, and roms besides stock don't have the drivers for it. There's no way to get it working unless they find the suitable drivers and add them, but even if they did so, the older models would stop working on the custom roms. For the time being, you best option is to stick with the stock rom.

Need Help with Camera Please!!

Okay so i just got my lg g4 yesterday and its my first lg phone after many years of samsung. I installed a custom Rom right away but...
1. My camera keeps crashing especially when i toggle the manual mode
2. Also,i have noticed that there isnt any dedicated button for front facing camera in the camera ux,how can i get that?
3. I have tried other cameras,like G5 ported camera and v10,same thing.
Im running Imperium rom 5.0 with simplgx kernel.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This one is abit off topic,but i figured id rather ask here than to create a dedicated thread for it....Whenever i apply a custom font,it doesn't take effect system wide,like in whatsapp and other apps,what can i do to fix that?

1. the best thing to do is reflash rom.. wipe dalvik and cache. and system...
2. there is at least on mine it does h811 betweeen mode and flash its front and rear camera switch.. or you can use gesture swipe screen across to change to front or back camera..
3.. idk..
4. yes some apps dont get the font... why not sure.. but they dont..

ill try to.. my internet connection is slow... actually its my neeighbors LOL.. and its rainning here...i think its 1mbt and itll take long time.. we get black outs only with samll rain or wind ... id suggest you download KDZ and flash it again..
Thanks but im at the end of the cliff.
Here's what i did:
1. Reflashed the rom like 3 times.
1a. I ported the camera from genysis rom,set permissions and rebooted
2. I flashed a different rom (genysis) with full wipes
3. I then flashed a kdz with lgup. Twice
4. I completely erased everything from the phone with lg up.
5. I downloaded 3rd party cameras (open camera and hd camera from play store)
Everything i did didnt bring back my front facing camera. I did a bit of searching and realized that its a common problem. Dang! A faulty new phone!!!

does the noise come from the speaker when the camera starts or does it actually come from the camera
i know the auto stabilization is kinda like a laser in a cd dvd bluray player set with copper strands and magnets. but if im not mistaken the zoom and focus features are all software related.
@TheMadScientist I didnt update software and rom since I buy phone in Jun 2016.I have android version 5.1 .
Sound is coming from the camera and I can feel on finger below button Volume down,like what you say this sound is like camera is focusing or zooming something.
I found on ebay rear camera for about 40 euro,but I dont know if I can fix the problem with new one or this is some hardware problem?
id say. just do a factory reset or better yet flash using KDZ
raptorddd I already did factory reset and still the same problem..I will try jet flesh but first I need to read some tutorial how to use KDZ and I hope to succeed in this

its easy. follow installation theres 2 files. the .dll and program.
put phone into doewload mode press vol up and plug usb cable should take to download mode screen.
of course you should have the KDZ already.. and unzipped.
open LGUP.... tick upgrade.. lower part untick box and 3 dots will appear there.. click to browse to KDZ file already unzipped.
once its selected you should see in the bar next to the 3 dots..
now exit progra, LGUP.
open program now this time select refurbisshed .. so this selection will wipe clean all partitions and internal sd.. this will be a clean fresh installation.. so no more bugs or errors..
click start and you done.

i dont know much about h815 with so many variants. like H815t ect. theres also antirollback in some phones.. search for how to enter to hidden menu. in software all the wway down youll see antirollback. if its 0 i think it means you can go to higher and still be 0.. in my case i have h811 and lollipop is antirollback V2 and now i have latest 20v MM antirollback its V3 . so on mine i cannot use a V2... but other phone its different.. if phone its bootloader locked and it cant be unlocked . and you want root you need to stay in LP. if it can be unlocked then you could try MM.

lenovo zuk z2 plus goes into bootloop after opening the camera

hey everyone
so i flashed lineage os 7.1 on my zuk z2 and everything was working perfect
after that i tried aicp 13.1 nightly and it was also working flawlessly but problem arrived as i used the gcam port for hdr+ in snapdragon 820 devices, initially the camera worked fine and everything was working normal but suddenly after some time whenever i opened gcam my phone hanged and then went into fastboot mode itself(the notification light is on ) and after i rebooted the phone it went into bootloop.
then after doing too many reboots finally my phone started and i changed the rom as i thought it might be a rom problem but in every rom whenever i tried to use gcam or even whatsapp default camera my phone suffered the same problem every time so i reflashed the stock zui firmware but the problem still persists as whenever i uses my stock cam or any other camera my phone goes into bootloop
when i searched the web i wasn't able to find a single thread related to my problem
really worried
please help
any help would be appreciated
*sorry i'm a noob to all this flashing etc*
also the bootloop occurs only after using the camera otherwise everything works fine
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE HELP URGENTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very strange issue. Dont know why that happens to you.
Which camera are you using? Try BSG port, v1a. Im using it and it works great. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ubVpPrrZRkvVPH9qT7XzlttwcCVPxUcM/view?usp=sharing
Also try this, which i did also. Flash with qfil ZUI Oreo 243 version, you have thread for this, Jintu jose is OP.
It didnt lock my bootloader, and it didnt encrypt my phone memory.
Flash TWRP
Flash latest AEX Oreo
Flash GZR gapps
Magisk (you have to do it two times, once when u install rom, let it boot, than again flash in recovery)
Install google camera i posted and try.
This setup is working great for me.
I've tried every possible version of gcam but it happens always
Now the main problem is that I can't even use my stock camera app as whenever camera opens it goes into bootloop
I've flashed the stock ROM using qpst tool
But the problem persisted
Can anyone please tell me what should I do?
Is this a problem with my kernel?????
What should I do?
I am currently using aex latest version ?
Thanks for the reply but please help

Than I would say it is hardware problem man
If you have warranty, flash stock rom, I think 1.9 lock bootloader, and reclaim warranty
I say this because I never had this problem, ever, on any custom rom nor stock
Can I reclaim the warranty after locking the bootloader

Will let everyone know about the problem if I found one
the same thing that happen with mi zuk z2 but changing the rom to a another witch no uses the lineage os kernel solve the problem
I have the same problem the camera only works on the stock Android 6, maybe someone will find a solution for the guarantee it's impossible to hand over the phone purchased with AliExpress.
Hi, i have a similar issue with my ZUK, i have changed ROM, and after flashing it went to constant bootloop. i thought it might have been an issue with the rom, so i flashed again, but the problem stayed. Phone started and gapps were installed ok. It worked well for a bit and then it went to bootloop again (last time was when i switched from camera to video). I have formated data, to start clean, flashed rom again, but this time it got stuck on the ''android'' logo and doesnt seem to go further. Phone is recognisable by my PC and i have access to internal memory.

Yes, unfortunately it turned out that the battery has been damaged and that was just nit enough voltage to startup the phone, I have replaced the battery myself for cost of approx 15 usd. It is very easy to open the phone ad replace it, as all tools are included with battery, you just need a hairdryer to melt the acrylic tape holding the glass back of the phone.

Sir but in my case I can go to twrp recovery easily, without any issues.
After your battery replacement the phone was back to normal self, i.e the room you previously installed was working without any issues?
Or did you had to use qfil and start from stock 2.5 zui and then re unlock bootloader and install twrp and custom ROM?
