Hey fellow OP5T owners,
I recently upgraded to BluSpark r106 (probably completely unrelated) on OOS 5.0.4 and today I noticed that my cam has a weird bug on the bottom of freshly taken pictures when holding the camera vertically (stock cam).
It does NOT happen when I am holding it horizontally, and sometimes it doesn't occur when you switch to the gallery fast enough after taking the photo.
It also does NOT happen in portrait mode at all, but when I'm holding it vertically in Pro mode and in normal auto Picture mode.
Video is not affected in any way.
To me, it looks like the processing of the picture gets messed up because the pictures come out fine in the gallery after taking the photo, and after a very short timespan, the artifacts pop up in the final picture.

I'm assuming you're using the standard, unmodified camera app that comes with OOS. If that's the case I would suggest you download any of the third party camera apps that are available in the Play Store and see if you can replicate the same problem. If the problem does not appear on another camera app, then it's almost 100% likely that is a software issue related to the camera app and the kernel might be a possible culprit.
If that's the case in your case I would wipe dalvik/cache and flash stock kernel and see if the issue is resolved.
Same issue with third party camera apps like Open Camera and the Nokia Cam that floated around here somewhere.
I'm now dirty flashing stock OOS 5.0.4, then check if it solves the problem and then go back to modifications.
Thanks for your input!
Edit: I tried it out twice now, both time same results, the issue is solved with a dirty flash of OOS 5.0.4 and Magisk, and is replicatable by flashing BluSpark r106.
It seems to interfere with the cam, especially when using touch to focus.
Same here. Thank you for your post! I was worried that it was hardware related.

Am I the only one that has problem with Photosphere and the gyroscope?

Yeah I got that too. Annoying as f**k.
Screwed up my ppl picture when I was in sphere mode. All upside down.
Anyways it's not final yet so yeah. But still I hate it.

Same problem, using the final Takju OTA - I never get a single lock-on; the point keeps drifting and at best I get one of the three lock light flashing. Given that even the help pages focus on the new Nexus 4, 7 and 10, I'm guessing we'd have to wait for the next point release to get this working.
People have been reporting success with Galaxy S 3, but not the Samsung I9000, so it's probably hardware-related, or at the very least driver-related
I have the gyroscope drifting off a bit on the first shot, subsequent shots are fine though.
Interestingly, I did a factory reset before 4.2 and it fixed the gyro issue! I can't seem to recreate the fix though. :/
Factory reset didn't help me... Seems my gyro is not only drifting, but its slow too. Hopefully Google fixes this =\
Factory reset didn't help me either -- I actually did a full reinstall from the Takju 4.1.2 factory image, because I didn't want to wait until the Yakju update, and then immediately updated to 4.2 via OTA before doing anything else beyond the initial setup.
A similar problem reported against CyanogenMod suggests that it might be due to the specific gyroscope make (the bug was not for the SGN, though). Installing Phone Tools now so I can check my gyroscope there.
No problem out here

Saturday I went to Venice (Italy) and the photosphere was working fine there, now I'm back in Avellino (Italy) and is it not working again.. :/
That's weird..
It was working for me well the other day as well... Perhaps magnetic interference?

I ended up flashing directly to 4.2 with a full wipe, and I have had non of the problems you describe. (Or any of the other problems people have had with 4.2).
I have however experienced while doing a photo sphere that the gyroscope isn't completely accurate. Meaning that if I go back and fourth a double of times on the first pictures, the next dot will be way of and the final sphere will be missing a part at this point and have an overlap at the end.
Update:
I reverted to original rom , camera still can't focus , seems like a defective unit.
Original post:
HI ,I recently got an korean F180L , I rooted the device and installed CM11 nightly.
I've noticed however , that it seems to be impossible to get a decent shot with the camera, it seems like most of the time the focus fail (red ring) and even when the device claims to be able to focus (green ring), the pictures seem very bad.
I tried the killing mm-qcamera-daemon method but it didn't help much.
I have a saved logcat of taking a picture (if anyone would like to check it)
found this nice line :
E/mm-camera( 5243): af_set_focus_mode: Failed: Unknown AF mode
can it help ? no idea.
anyway , here are some crappy shots I took

Try using 3rd party camera app like Focal or Snap HDR.

Now, Google has updated its camera app to version 2.2.024, and once again, they have ported previous camera functionality to the app. The two main features that today’s update brings are support for a camera self-timer (either three or ten seconds) and a new option to change your image capture aspect ratio from the default 4:3 to 16:9. In addition, there are a few other, more minor tweaks such as a new prompt upon first launch that lets you select between full sensor (4:3) and cropped sensor (16:9) capture, as well as a new pop-up that lets you know about the camera settings menu when switching between modes.

1. Square panorama
2. Fisheye panorama

Does the update fix the random reboots on the Nexus 4 device?
I still have reboots also in panorama and photosphere there is sometime problem with orientation
The options on the panorama mode doesn't work but doesn't mind..the reboots i think it's kernel and rom related..in psx with moob i don't have not even one reboot!!

Guess these random reboots must be caused by something else because I never had any random reboots on Nexus 4 with this Camera app running CM11
i dont have any random reboot with this camera app
so perhaps that the problem is not from it..
My N4 would reboot after every picture especially after using Flash....too much UV, so i gave it some Voltage
Thanks, will try it as soon as I get home.. :victory:
Thank you for the APK
you're welcome guys
TL;DR - Camera firmware updated on Google Edition, largely unusable since. Any fixes?
Here's the tale. My camera was excellent for the past year or so, and served me well no matter what ROM was being used. One fateful day, I was going to share something to a friend on Google+ while using the Google Play Edition ROM (really very excellent) when I was presented with this message:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I didn't think much of it, but let it sit while it did this. I eventually came back to the phone after several minutes, only to find the message still there.
I killed Google+ and opened my camera. I was presented the same message that the camera firmware was updating and to wait. I let it sit for about half an hour. I tried again only to receive the same message. Eventually I was presented a black screen with the camera controls, and was able to switch to the front camera. However, the back camera was still only a black screen. I restarted and had the same issue.
I reflashed to a stock based ROM (Insane) and was presented with the same issue, only this time no warning about firmware upgrades in progress - just black screen on the rear camera. At this point I decided an ODIN would probably take me back to where I needed to be, so I ODIN'ed a stock image. The issue was still persistent, but the camera would work every once in awhile now. It was a very rare occasion, but sometimes the back camera would flicker into life and allow me to take pictures as usual. Infuriatingly enough, the first time it started working was when I was trying to show a friend of mine, also into Android, the issue.
Non-TW based ROMs do not work with the rear camera now. The front camera is still working, and sometimes allows videos to be taken.
TW based ROMs rarely work with the rear camera now. The front camera is still working, and sometimes allows videos to be taken.
Does anyone have any ideas on remedies for this issue? Is there a stock Samsung Galaxy S4 camera firmware flashable? I've searched around, and decided to yield to the higher XDA powers of knowledge after no returns.
Hello everyone, im a new user of lenovo p2 (Stock rom nougat) and im really happy with all phone features.... except for the camera.
I Like the design and features of the stock camera from p2, but i dont like its stabilization when taking a shot (if you move your hand 0,01mm your photo will be blurred). I Tried some cams apps on the playstore and the only one that gives me what i want (fast shot, simple design, few features to use sometimes, no ads, good quality) is the "Bacon camera". Its very good,but i found a bug in p2 with the screen resolution (not the photo) because of the navigation bar. I dont like the nav bar so i use fingerprint gestures and keep the bar hidden. but when i open the camera with the bar hidden (always) it add a black stripe on the screen and "flats" the image preview (when the picture is taken its ok). Im downloaded this camera yesterday and i think it wasnt bugged before (not sure), but then i downloaded a lot of cams apks and the bacon start bugging. I did hard reset today and problem persists.
Img 1 : "Flat screen"
Img 2: Opening camera with nav bar on
img 3: Removing the nav bar after img 2 (how it should be in img 1)
I dont know if its the app or my phone, if someone could download the app to test i would appreciate!
other questions:
- Will deodexed stockn allow me to turn the nav. bar of permanently? (so i could use fp gestures plus gestures from below the screen)
- There is any camera apk simple and good like the stock (with working features), but with better quality and stabilization? I dont know if its hardware o software, but when i take a picture in "CamScanner", for example, the preview quality is good, but when the shot is taken the picture become blured.....
Thanks and sorry for the long post!!
