Snapchat back camera

I did a fair amount of research but couldnt find any answers for this phone specifically, ( tmobile hercules )
Installed latest nightly of cyanogenmod
I've changed my codecs / video quality only, in all combinations
The back camera and GPS are the only thing not working on my phone.
I want to solve the camera problem first.
Any more information needed? Ask. Thanks.

It's a known issue with this phone. You have to install an older version of snap chat in order to use the rear camera recording feature. You can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2590031

Strange craking Noise during video recording with Google Camera

Hi,
Since I have my N5X, when I try to take a video using Google Camera, I have random "crack" sounds as you can see on the video below at :
00:03
00:07
00:08
https://youtu.be/d3mXQ8PaTNQ
This happen when I take the video using some other camera app like OpenCamera, but NOT when it's with Footej...
Apparently, it doesn't depend on the root, rom or kernel, and I don't have any audio tweaks installed like Viper4Android.
Can someone help me to understand and remove these noise ?

How to use 3.5 mm jack's external microphone to record audio?

I'm trying to use an external mic to record audio at better quality but every app uses the phone's built-in mic for recording. I've tried the following apps.
Stock recorder of OnePlus
Audio recorder by sony
Easy voice recorder
None of these recorder have any separate option to choose external mic attached via 3.5 mm jack. Please help.

I've been able to use an external microphone for recording video with Ooen Camera apk. It sucks though, because you lose the stock features of the in built camera and being able to utilize the extra camera on the rear. I don't know what OnePlus was thinking. A very large majority of people purchasing from them are tech heads (as OnePlus isn't a popular or well known device like Samsung, Pixel and others) and people like me who have YouTube channels and will be using the camera for video content.
They need to address this and hopefully this is fixed in the Plus 6t... Looks like that will be the next OnePlus,I add to my channel's stable of devices.

Face unlock failed / Camera is in use

Hello there,
Recently after updating my OnePlus 7t to open beta 3 I've noticed a strange issue with the cameras. About 2 hours after every reboot camera related features start malfunctioning. I can't use face unlock, because "camera is being used by other apps", I can neither use the stock camera app because I get a toast notification saying "the camera is in use". The main back and front camera seems to be working in every other app like snapchat, gcam (although telephoto and ultrawide don't work on gcam). After reboot everything goes back to normal for some time.
I tried:
- cleaning data of all camera services and the camera app itself and face unlock app
- re-adding my face model
- uninstalling AUX camera magisk fix (which enables telephoto and ultrawide to work in gcam)
Is anyone else having this issue? Iwould love to solve this problem without reverting back to open beta 2, as it lacks some features I like in OB3. Thanks in advance for help!

I am facing the same issue with the latest beta update? Got any fix for this?

Are you sure you dont have some app spying on you. Probably using the camera thats why its being reported in use

It's caused by GCam. Not sure about stock OOS cam.

I doubt it, as the issue is only in stock Oxygen OS apps (camera, face unlock). My theory is that they use some camera service made by Oneplus which has broke in my phone. Other apps, such as Snapchat or Gcam do not utilise such service, and the main cameras work just fine in those apps (telephoto and ultrawide don't work, because they propably must be accesed via this service). But it's just my theory

Lineage 17.1 direct audio recording?

Having recently upgraded my ROM to android10 with L17.1 I was surprised to see direct audio recording of internal sound has become an issue. I'm aware from reading around that google removed the function in a8 and there are some workarounds, but they all seem to involve screen recorders.
I'm looking for a simple audio recorder to capture the internal sound without mic.
My nexus 7 flo is rooted with the magisk, twrp and unofficial lineage builds but I don't have xposed framework installed (I'm toying with adding it).
Secondly, I'm still on the factory kernal. Is there much benefit in flashing one of the newer XDA built versions? Can anyone recommend which one for L17.1?
As ever - many thanks.
