Grid : off
Keep backlight : on

Saturation +4
Hue +4
Sharpness +5
---------------------------------------------
EV
-0.5
what can i do to make it better?

nobody?

Drop the sharpness to 0 since the photos are oversharpened already.
Increase resolution to at least 2M, 1 is too low, 3 is what the cam is capable of.
Set exposure to -2 as the tilt cam over exposes.

If it's being laggy make sure you have the lates camera version and also try a different radio. I've got radio 1.27.12.17 on Schap's 4.31 rom w/ camera version 5.04 Build# 29195. It's pretty smooth even with res seet to 3m and super fine.

i have the latest cam version...but im keeping the original rom...
i now have it set as:
Resolution : 3M
Brightness: -1.5
white balance: Auto
Contrast +4
Saturation +4
Hue +3
Sharpness +2
the cam still isnt good...please help
heres a pic i took with these settings..

What is a radio? Thanks.

Lower the saturation some. Shooting inside in low light (yes that is low light from a photography standpoint) you are going to have some noise from the camera "bumping the ISO" Esentially the camera is making the photo sensor more sensitive to light so it can pick up the picture, pretty cool, but there's a downfall. NOISE. It's the little greenish specs in the darker areas of the picture.
The smaller the sensor, the more noise. As you can imagine, the sensor on your TyTNII or Tilt is TINY. Don't take test pictures inside, if you want great indoor pictures, buy a digital camera; if you want great indoor pictures without flash, buy a DSLR.
Go take a couple test shots outside, see how those look.

i made it 2M..and made the saturation 2...heres a picture..

i got the latest camera version from nadvia...can somebody post the best specs for it?

Optical zoom only working on Auto mode?

Can anyone else test to see if their optical zoom works in Pro mode? You should be able to see it switch to the optical zoom when you slowly cross between 1.9x and 2.0.
For some reason, it only seems to be working IN auto mode.

It seems that optical zoom only works with Portrait mode.
I'm surprised that clicking the x2 button on AUTO mode just zooms in using the main camera.
To prove its zooming with the main camera, cover the secondary camera and fliping between x1 and x2 still works.

No, it also works in Auto mode - it takes a second to "switch" and it will only do so if the conditions are right (i.e. good lighting). You can't test it by covering the lens, because it automatically sees that the conditions aren't right for the optical zoom, so it defaults back to digital.
The Verge mentioned that it will not work in Pro mode, so that answers my question.
I wish it indicated whether the optical zoom was being used or not - it's not always easy to see unless you go from 1.9x to 2.0x and wait for the switch to happen (the colors will change slightly).

This video will explain.

Also I took image 2x with telephoto lens and cropped 2x on main lens. I did this by covering the telephoto lens while in 2x mode. It's seamless transition, and quality appear to be the time.
I will upload 2 images, telephoto being first.

Looks like the 2nd camera optical zoom is ONLY for photos. Video zoom is digital.

Yeah, tested with the finger trick and it does switch lenses. Open the camera, aim at a decently-lighted scene. Tap the x2, cover the main lens and the viewfinder still shows the uncovered view.

I'm disappointed that I can't shoot in Pro Mode with the telephoto lens. Why the heck did they decide that?

Same here. Immediate crash when switching to front camera.
Also, with all the gamma/contrast settings - the photos get extremely yellowish.

I switched to video mode, recorded a few seconds of video and switched back to photo mode. The rear camera should work, but not the front camera for me, still.
Edit: I tried again and it doesn't work, but will if you repeat the above process after clearing the app data.

if you switch to lens blur mode and then switch to front camera, you can take pictures. it would be great if front camera is fixed. this mod is great.

Hi, Turn off "Motion" and see if that helps.

Is there a way to make that front camera also works?

Has anyone got the white balance figures right for the pro? The ones listed are far too red, have reduced the red down to 90% which is a lot better but whites arent white - far too much yellow. Have tried various settings but cant get it perfect

Ok so i adjusted settings in the office, got the white where i wanted it. Went out for a walk and took a few pics comparing. Unfortunately there's still far too much blue once outside (didn't notice it under inside lights), this was with the minimum selectable at 60.
Picture 1 - Gcam
Picture 2 - stock hdr

I dont think it looks too bad, the stock cam hdr is complete crap you shouldnt use it lol it looks so unnatural. I think it is colder (more blue, like taken through sunglasses) but it still looks somewhat natural. especially not oversharpened like stock cam...

Is there a version for android 9 on the mate 10 pro

P20 Pro CLT-L29 flashlight issue

Good Day
I think I have a problem with P20 Pro CLT-L29 flashlight. I can see just one of the LEDs is working regardless of the camera settings chosen or if I use it as a torch. When I put a dark glass filter over the flashlight is clearly visible that just the right ( warm ) LED is on. The left part of the flashlight remains off. Any ideas how to test both LEDs separately? My concern is that it may be a hardware issue.
Thank you.

Hi,
In my P20 Pro, when using flashlight, only right LED is in use (looking on the back of the phone). But when I'm taking photo, both LEDs are used (but only during the last flash - taking photo; not during focusing).

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately it doesn't apply to my phone. For both Photo and Pro modes during the last flash the warm LED just burns brighter.
I went to a phone store couple of days ago. The brand new P20 Pro for sale there was acting exactly like the same, so it seems that it's not an isolated case flash failure. I'm wondering if this camera was really build as 2 tone flashlight in a first place.
Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed as this model was announced as "The Camera Phone" when it came on the market.

Mystery unveiled.
I wrote to Huawei support and they got back to me today.
CLT-L29 has a single flash LED only. The information posted on phone specs sites
The 40mp and 8mp cameras are next to each other, with the single 20mp monochrome camera on its own, with a dual LED flash, and then LEICA branding.
turned to be wrong.
The white left side of the flash is not a second LED but a RGB Color Temperature Sensor according to Huawei support.
This is what I received back from them:
" Flash + RGB Color Temperature Sensor (*RGB Color temperature sensor is used to ensure the photo effect by adjusting the white balance and exposure degree according to the scene) "

Oh, that's interesting. I have never thought about that. I found some teardown photos on iFixIt and there is only one LED + sensor.

Yep, the plastic is deceiving. Looks just like dual LED flash.
Anyway. I'm happy that I don't need to claim warranty.

Question Video camera cropped in on Android 12

Hi, I've run into another new issue with Android 12 and I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing it. Inside the camera app, the video ends up seriously cropped compared to how it was on Android 11. Whereas before I could shoot indoor things (cat videos, etc) with the normal lens, now I'm having to go out to the ultrawide to fit things in frame. For now I'm getting around it by using a custom older version of Gcam, but I'd like to just use the normal app if possible. Is anyone else seeing this?

This is with the stock app:
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Compared to how it was with Android 11 and on the custom Gcam app
As you can see, it's a significant amount of cropping. Both with the same standard stabilization enabled. (And pardon the messy desk)
I also tried installing the older 8.2 APK, but to no avail. It's older than the 8.3 that comes with the OS, so you can't go back further than that. And also my old technique for resigning apps to make the system think they're separate apps doesn't seem to be working, but if anyone could figure out a way to do that, I'm all ears.

It's normal. This how EIS works.

Did you even read? This is considerably more cropped than the same stabilization setting on Android 11. It turns it from perfectly usable to completely worthless. And if I'm recording 1080p60 or 4K, it's actually recording at less than full resolution and blowing it up, which looks terrible.

It is normal I think that is how it works.

I think I understand your question but I don't think I recorded any videos before upgrading to Android 12, so I don't have any comparison. I agree that the "1x" video on 12 has a narrower field of view than the equivalent "1x" still photo mode. Allso the video UI does not seem to have any option to disable image stabilization completely. I see that it offers .6x only for standard and cinematic pan. The other modes start at 1x or 2x, so I'm not even sure if the number always means the same sensor.

Yeah, I experienced the same issue, using exactly the same video camera settings the video on Android 12 has much narrower fov. I find it strange that no one is talking about this, maybe no one cares, but when making indoors videos it's a big deal since you have to switch to the wide angle lens, which gathers much less light.

The ultrawide camera also lacks autofocus, so if you're trying to film something close-up like a computer screen, it won't be in focus. This is definitely a major issue.

I just noticed that when you pull down the settings pane in the camera app, click "More settings", and scroll down, you can find a toggle to disable video stabilization. This gives a wider field of view and seems to show a similar lightly shaded on-screen control for stabilization. Trying to touch that control raises a hint to enable stabilization in the settings.
Are you sure that the Android 11 and custom app are enabled and not in this funny state with the partial shading of the control button?
