why mate 20 camera locked on 12 megapixel while it has 16 megapixel ... this is weird
is it a bug on this rom that i am using or is it in all the mate 20 roms ....
if its not then why ....
i tried to take a long detour to use that 16 megapixel with a third party app but it seems Huawei locked its camera features even for the third party apps

Hello, it's not a bug, it's due to the fact that the main camera is 12Mpix, the ultrawide cam is 16Mpix and the telephoto is 8Mpix
so thats why .....
thanks man for your reply and clarification
Its not actually locked to 12mp
Just switch to "WIDE" and check the settings again, you'll see its 16mp.

Been using Blackice1.27/cm7 for a week or two and really loving it, just have a couple of questions about the camera if anyone knows the answers.
The thing that put me off Cyanogenmod about a year ago was the camera app. I'm fine with it now and actually prefer it to the MIUI one (I like being able to bind the power button to take pictures) but, the MIUI app automatically takes 'wide' shots but doesn't say the MP whereas cm7 app says 8MP, 6MP (wide), 4MP etc.
Is the MIUI camera app taking 8MP (wide)?
Is there any way to make the Cyanogenmod app take 8MP (wide)?
Does 8MP (wide) exist!?
How does it compare to the sense camera? (MP? Wide or not Wide?)
Thank you for your time
So seeing as no one has an answer I did some digging. Sorry if this is old info but I found it interesting.
Although the DHD supposedly has an 8MP camera the software you get with it only takes 6.3MP pictures. I reflashed my original Froyo 2.2 to check and on the 8MP setting it takes 3264x1952 the same as the 'high' setting on MIUI.
3264x1952 = 6.3MP
So stock and MIUI both actually only take 6MP pictures. Cm7 takes true 8MP (3264x2448).
Again I'm sorry if this is old news, its new news to me, I think it's really bad that people buy an 8MP camera phone that only takes 6MP photos. I'm not to bothered about the quality of the picture as 6mp is fine it more the false advertising...
Try CameraZoomFX
Hello everyone,
I've been trying out a few camera apps and on two of them it showed the MP my camera was on and they both said 3.2 instead of the 5 mp it should normally be.. One of the apps is ProCapture, I've been messing around with the settings a bit, but i can't seem to get it to 5 mp?
I'm really confused and I wonder how I can fix this?
Cheers

You have to buy the full version for full resolution. I know that the ProCapture free version is just a demo with limited res so you can see all the feature but at low res.
(According the the apps info. I haven't bought the full version so I can't confirm it will be 5mp but safe to assumed it will be)

Note that the default 16:9 ratio doesn't use the full sensor and is 3.7mp. switching wide-screen off give the 'full' 5mp.
Ok, thanks alot guys. Are there any camera apps you use that you find give you "better" or sharper quality pictures? Because with my stock camera it seems to be a bit random..

Hi all,
Wanted to know if there is any chance of the oneplus 6 camera app being ported to oneplus 5t AND if it will produce any better photos than what we are currently getting on the oneplus 5t.
A part of me hopes that oneplus is just waiting for enough oneplus 6 units to be sold before sending out an update for oneplus 5t that will give us the same processing software and power as the oneplus 6.
Thoughts and opinions on the above are welcome from all, especially the developers who have made this website the awesome place it is today for all mods and apps.
rgds,
Gcam on the 5t takes way better photos than the 6 ?*?

Does it actually though? I've compared pictures and I'm seeing gcam has a bit better overall color from the HDR processing but there is quite a bit of graininess in mid-low lighting settings. OOS cam definitely still does have oil painting effect but it's a lot less pronounced in the latest builds than it was on release, and photos in mid-low lighting are not near as grainy as gcam photos.
Care to change my mind and share your gcam setup/5t fixes you used?

Use the latest apk 7.9.5 and the fixes. Do some research in the unified thread. When hdr enchnaced is on. Longer shutter time. The photos are incredible. Hdr on doesnt do much atm (it used to but thungs are getting fixed atm)
Just dont touch to focus in hdr enhnaced. ( you need root tho. )
please remove
Not rooted yet so haven't tried out GCam. Since i have an extended warranty and damage protection, etc... I have not rooted and frankly ..this is the first android phone where i don't feel the need to root as such. I am more inclined towards an unrooted port of the oneplus 6 camera or maybe an official update... hope it happens sooner or later.

How can it be that you do not see the need for root when you have what you are looking for with root and Gcam? There is no logic in your thinking ... One plus will not give you anything, the Indian continues

A question. I have the version 7.8 of the Arnova Pixel 2 with the libraries in Magisk V1 because with the V2 and the last Gcam I lost the facial unlocking. Is this already fixed? If it is fixed which version should I install and what mod of Magisk with the libraries without losing the facial unlocking?
Regards

Thank you very much mate. It is amazing this camera so good.
I just took some pictures and have improved more to the 7.8
Can we say that it is better than the native of OP6? I believe that yes hahaha.

of course it is there is no much of improvements in the op6 over op5t
the slightly big improvement is in low light only but still the op6's camera is far from google pixel ,apple and samsung
we get pixel quality photos with this mod so we have a top tier camera flagship degree
We probably take better pictures than the pixel xl 2 because we have a wider f1.7 lens lol

I would love to root it but it is under warranty and apart from the camera, i don't see the need to root it for anything else.
Believe me, this is the first phone i am using where my fingers are not itching to root it straight out of the box.

I would say OP Video output is better
I'm still curious about the OP's question. Would an OP6 camera port to our phone make a difference?
What are the best settings in the latest version of GCam? (HDR, ISO......)

Been offered a straight swap for a pixel 2 XL should I do it
If you value taking photos over having a headphone jack, then yes.
yes do it or give me the offer, I will swap it
Cheers guys camera is my number 1 priority,
To be fair though I've take some amazing photos and video with the 5t
google camera has been fully ported so no need to get the pixel
Its worth several hundred dollars more. So even if you prefer your OP5T I'd trade it, sell the Pixel 2xl, buy another 5T and keep the change.

The 2 XL's camera is still superior to the 5T in every way, regardless of any mod available. Now the screen is much lower quality, although it has gotten a little better since the launch units.
Indisagree younget same or better image quality with latest mod google camera with magisk fixes it is full software port

Well, with latest magisk fix and dotfix GCam quality is reduced. Thats the fact. Gcam is not 100% perfect in 5T now. Since OP ****ed up their Camera hals we can't enjoy better quality.. Simply compare Mi A1 Gcam port vs 5T Gcam port with fix. U will be surprised....
I tried the gcam port last night and the noise was horrendous for low light, the oos camera was much nicer
ready to swap here.!

Bro. I am talking about general photography. Selfie and Portiait are perfect in Gcam. Other types of photos are not perfect like Mi A1 Gcam. As u know, our Camera HAL implementation is bad. One Plus ****ed it.. With dot fix the quality of the output decreased... Selfie and Portait shots are fine.. And yea i am always using latest

It's better. Really loves GCam. Hope will get a complete fix soon...
Well I will be doing the trade tomorrow ,
And will keep you guys updated on initial impressions
I use the camera alot taking mainly family photos
Got the pixel 2 xl
Similar in size to the 5t
First impressions aren't great to be fair
The screen OMG very bad 5t blows it away with colour
Very washed out even on saturated mode.
Camera is okay been very dull day here in the UK.
So far on par with 5t
And I think positive is better on 5t.
Pretty disappointed at the minute
Honest opinion

Glad ..8f anyone else in ur place
Would hav said that pixel xl is better then 5t just for their mind satisfaction ..
Also camera is ..okay ..u said really ? Coz i have been listening lot about pixel ..
A lot is said about the pixel but the photos I've took today of my son , are about equal,
The 5t video at 1080p is fantastic.
I will have a better look when we get better weather.
Maybe it's a placebo with the screen being so lackluster
Blue shift also exists
I might be swapping this pixel back for a 5t soon hahahaha
Hello. I noticed that after the new Android 10 update the galaxy S10 series all got the long exposure camera update in Pro mode and are now capable of shooting up to 3200 ISO and 30 second shutter speed. Sadly the S9 series didn't get so lucky and stayed at the previous limit of 800 ISO and 10 second shutter speed. I don't think that there's a huge hardware difference between both model's primary 12MP cameras so I was quite disappointed that we got left behind. Also I don't think there will be any huge software updates for the S9 series since it's already a 2 year phone, so I was wondering if there could potentially come out a custom camera app that would unlock the current limitations of the camera?
Without full Camera2Api, I don't think it's easy to make a custom camera app which can take 10 second exposure shot, let alone 30 seconds.
But it IS FULL Camera2API. I downloaded the app and it has "FULL" checked and "LEVEL_3" , "LIMITED" and "LEGACY" are all crossed out.
That's weird, for me it's limited. I don't know.
Haven't checked in Android 10 though, might as well do it.
Yeah, the latest One UI 2 with Android 10 shows with Camera2api FULL Hardware Support Level. That's why I'm so confused...
