On the ANCE firmware I was able to download the Google camera and then the first time I tried to open the camera from the lock screen I could set it as the default. On the ANG3 firmware it does not give me this option. Is there any way to change the lock screen camera app?
I can see that all the topics with this question are "full" with constructive answers (((((
Really disappointed about this

Hi guys, my camera always opens in superior auto mode (which is reallllly horrible) and I have to manually set it to manual every time... Is there any way to set default? Also is there any way to access the various scene modes in 20mpixel mode? I'm on the 257 firmware
Cheers

Nope, if you launch the camera from the apps (or icon on home screen) it'll start in manual mode and that's it (and no, there's no way around it yet, and no nobody knows if sony will add it in future firmwares)
Darn, I was really liking the hard camera button on the side because you could actually use it as a point and shoot camera, quickly... Guess I'll hope for a custom rom or an app which allows for some customisation of this... Or a fix for superior auto, yech.
Hey XDA lovers!
There's this minor annoyance that I'm facing. And with minor, I mean a First-World-Problem BIG annoyance.
You see, I never use the Superior Auto mode of the Xperia Z1. Instead I love shooting at Manual mode with ISO around 50 to 200. Superior Auto always cranks the ISO up to infinity, it seems. The fastest way for me to get to Manual Mode now, is through a shortcut I placed on my homescreen. So to shoot, I have to unlock the device, possibly press the home button, wait and click on the shortcut. The other option is to use the camera quick launch, press the button in the lower right corner before it freezes (happens too often) and then click Manual. Both are equally tiring, considering you can already launch the camera with one press of the shutter button!
So I'm asking the experienced modders on XDA: is there a way to redirect the quick launch shortcut to open the Manual Mode of the camera? Obviously this should require root, which isn't a problem. Is this idea even possible?
Thanks in advance for thinking with me! :cyclops:
(and while we're at it, is it even possible to place the ISO setting in the hotbar so it's just one click away instead of having to dig through the menu? Hmm, I suppose not)
I haven't found a way to do this yet. Manual mode possibly can't be launched with quick launch, but the 8MP can be modified to 15MP or 20MP in Superior Auto mode, with Xposed module called "20MP Superior Auto". In Xposed Installer, go to Downloads, and search this module. But to make it work, you have to enable it in Xposed Installer, select an appropriate option in "20MP Superior Auto" , and after restart, you have to check and uncheck an option in the superior auto setting (any option), and then the mod will work! I've got Xperia Z1C and it works, I tested (even with the 4k and 120FPS also).
Hope it helps !
I am loving the new "hacked" Google Camera that supports HDR. Both my wife and I are getting far better results from our OP3Ts. However, frustratingly it seems to be impossible to change the default camera in OxygenOS so that we can access it from the "double-tap power" shortcut. The default camera setting has no effect, and disabling the stock camera completely merely causes the shortcut to simply not work at all. By all accounts, OnePlus seems to have tied this functionality to the stock app.
Anyone know of a way to fix this?
Not yet. I have the same problem.
You can change the default camera, but it only works when phone is unlocked. So if you have lockscreen with password/fingerprint, no luck, only OOS camera opens then. But when unlocked, then Google camera (if changed to default) will open with double press powerbutton -shortcut. I think it's tied with the OOS lockscreen.
I've got this same issue. When you change defaults to a 3rd party app (I was using the Pixel ZSL HDR+ port for the 3T) the FIRST time you double press power it luanches the Pixel camera. Then after that it reverts back to the Oneplus camera. I submitted a bug but who knows if that really gets looked at. I also have a friend with a 3T who had the same problem. It happens to me on stock AND on all the open betas
You can't. In Lineage there are some patches to snapdragon camera to call it oneplus camera because oneplus spaguetti code

Hello everyone,
new to the forum. A question brings me here
I bought a Huawei P20 Pro a few days ago, I am all set up and I really like it! However, bearing in mind the camera was the main reason I purchased this phone I am having troubles. A few photos I have taken seem to be really focused in some areas but a tad blurry in others. I have looked in the settings and I have also noticed "master AI" is not there, not just turned off as per updates I have read about but not there at all in the settings!
I am on the latest update available in the UK, can anybody advise please?
Kind regards
first, open the camera app and make sure the "photo" mode is selected. then, click the setting icon on the top right. Setting menu will comes up and under "Capture Settings" you will see a switch to turn on/off the Master AI. Apart from that, there is no other Master AI settings. And you won't see the Master AI switch if you're in different mode such as "Video" or "Portraits"
Thank you, I actually reappeared after a hard reset of my phone.
Couple of questions, any tips on a very novice photographer? Basically best settings for general point and click with minimal settings changing?
Secondly, the plastic/tempered glass lens covers you can get to protect the camera lens. Are they needed? I gather the camera lens is built well for anti-scratch? Also I assume these lens covers would likely ruin the actual photo even if protecting the glass?
Hi Everyone,
I love the camera of my MI11U. but there are a few tunings that I REALLY HATE!!! one of them is default beautify in selfie and portrait. taking photos of black objects (tried with GCAM which took a perfect shot). and a few minor others.
Searching here and there, I found a way to turn off and on some additional settings like beautify and some other functions. this will help whoever understand all these settings (not me ), so I thought to share this simple method and see your thoughts and outcomes. ***note that there are some settings are in Chinese***.
1 . go to file manager and go to phone storage....
2 . go to DCIM/camera
3 . make a new folder with the name mentioned below....
lab_options_visible
4 .save and exit.....
5 . go to settings and force stop the miui camera app....
6 . now launch the app.....
7 . go to camera settings menu of the app.....you will see new options available in there....
8 . just turn off beautify in portrait mode....
9 . come back....change to selfie mode....tap on the blue star.....now tap on clear.....
Hope this helps everyone to take better photos.
would much appreciate if we can share the benefits of these settings in order to get best results.
Wow, this is amazing. Thx

I am using GCam Wichaya 8.1.101 V1.4
it is not perfect, original xiaomi camera is impressive with all functions and control of device way better than GCam. but GCam is better in some conditions and scenarios like taking a photo of a far black object or photos of people. with Xiaomi, far black objects will be like a void in a photo and no details at all in it, and beautify is so annoying. with GCam, both are better, but colours are less vibrant and saturated.

The reason I made this thread is to share experience and understand what exactly they do. I really do not know any other that beautify in portrait disables it for all camera modes and not only portrait.
I found the following over internet by someone tested them on Mi10 devices, and some features are not mentioned or were disabled with previous devices. hope it helps at a start.
Internal magic tools : activates internal tools to improve the quality of photos and videos.
Face detection : the mobile camera can recognize the face and frame it in a box to improve the result.
Hide face detection frame automatically : this option hides the box that appears when activating the previous option but keeps the improvements.
Beautify in Portrait mode : Activate beauty mode in all camera modes.
Turn on dual camera : turn on dual camera to enhance photos.
Turn on dual SAT camera – currently does not have a user function.
Turn on MFNR : when activated, the device takes 6 consecutive shots which when superimposed and eliminate the noise from the photo.
Turn on SR : with this option the resolution of the image is enlarged as if the sensor of the mobile were larger.
Turn on quick shot animation : activate the quick shot animation in the app.

Thanks for explaining the features.
Thanks for the tip. One of the options I really like to see is the ability to pick the metering type (full frame average, center weighted average or spot metering). Can be quite useful. Seems like center weighted is the default.

Tried on xiaomi.eu latest weekly and didn't work. There is a modded miui cam in a Telegram group. Can't give TG links since some butthurt people hate me and sharing TG links appears to be against the "rules". Just search up "Sevtinge's Mods". That cam got many more options to tweak for, especially the Leica stuff.
