Camera enhancement for Android lollipop - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Is there any camera hack ( to get the full 20M resolution) that works with Lollipop 5.02? Ive only seen ones that work with KitKat in the development forums?

Hello...first install xposed framework to ur phone..after that open xposed installer and go to modules and search for "20 mp superior auto" and install it..and activate the module..then reboot..now go to the module and select the amount of mp you want and u will have full 20.7mp in ur superior auto mode...
Don't forget to thanks if helped!!!!

Cheers. I sure will once I get down to doing that.

Or you can try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3071161 better than the xposed module in my opinion

I fixed it restoring my os, but now how i do the superuser mod i don't know im new on this world and i need to deodexed my phone to install 4k video and time shift
I've made a topic for this:

@vhos96 you should have superuser mod to have it working on your phone. Actually it doesn't need to be de-oxed, atleast in case of Stock .757 firmware.
Simple Steps(I hope you have recovery from your post):
1) Get Root access (if you dont have) by flashing SuperSU by Chainfire (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053)
2) Install Xposed framework by rovo89 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/framework-xposed-rom-modding-modifying-t1574401)
3) Install Xposed Xperia by Serajr (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2612179)
4) Activate Xposed Xperia module in Xposed Framework.
5) Flash 4K-HFRv1.3.zip from 4K thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2767005)
6) Reboot Device.
7) Wipe app data of cameracommon, camera, cameras, video, camera extension,etc related to camera.
8) Open Camera app, Mode->4K Recording , Hit Record button and watch your Xperia Z1 Record 4K video.
Beware: Don't Enable SteadyShot in settings because it crashes Camera.
Hope it helped.

is 4k video port available for aosp roms also?

No, 4K video port is not available for AOSP roms. I think it is not possible to port 4K to AOSP with current libs of Sony. Maybe it will be possible if Xperia Z2 GPe device is released or any other Sony device's GPe Edition with 4K video is released.
I am not sure about this, but currently 4K video is not available for AOSP.

Xposed - Someone installed it?

Just received my brand new Z3,but already feeling the itch for some customization.
Someone already tried playing around with xposed?
It is fully working or at least some features?
Thanks
After rooting/bootloader unlocking the phone, I installed Xposed. It works well. I use the following:
App Settings - I made systemUI (and most of my non-sony apps) 240 dpi.
GravityBox (smaller nav bar, orange icons, replacement battery, AM/PM removal, 3 dot on nav bar right, search on nav bar left.
Tinted Status bar
Xperia Xposed - installed but I decided not to use anything
Please note, per conversations on general, unlocking the bootloader will irreversibly worsen the camera's low-light picture quality and kill native miracasting/chromecasting ability linked to Sony's DRM keys
I'm using tons of Xposed modules and I couldn't live without it. It's one of the greatest pieces of software ever written and I'll stay away from Android L until Xposed works on it. i never felt the urge to use CM or another rom since I'm using Xposed, GravityBox alone is such a mighty module that it replaces a plethora of third party rom features.
It's really hard to live without Xposed after having it for so long on my Moto X. I'm just not willing to lose the camera quality by unlocking the BL. Of course, there are other things I'm itching to do as well with root (like freezing and deleting lots of useless apps that suck battery!)
I am using xposed with
- xstana module
- tinted status bar
- gravity box
Everything works perfectly!

I don't mind losing some of the camera quality either, I believe that people will either find a way to reverse the process, or make something better.
I'm just waiting till I can backup my TA partition.
Sent from my D5803
I istalled Xposed and run xled, xquiet hours and cyan lock screen the lose of the cameras low light abilty is not a big problem i use camera fv5 and change the iso settings
So no way in hell to get root without unlocking the bootloader?
i was using pie controls from gravitybox with navbar disabled, but i found out that pie doesn't appear when using camera with physical button with phone in standby.... anyone can confirm this?
I use XBlast and Xposed LED Control.
Both works fine. What does NOT work is GravityBox. But why? Can someone help me?
When trying to start it, it says "GravityBox System Framework does not answer" in german. in english perhaps its something like "cant retrieve System Framework data" or something like that.
It doesn matter how often i try, always the same error message

You need to enable it in Module and restart phone. After that you can do what you want! In Download section, you can find more module with search filter by typing: xperia

I think gravity Box can not handle sonys ui. Had it before on lg g2 stock rom. Just some features worked. Keep in mind that gb is actually for vanilla kitkat(aosp,maybe cm)
GB worked fine for me on the Z1C, but eventually some features require a deodexed rom. I've always been using RomAur.

I did not mean you have to enable xposed installer. I said: you have to enable GravityKK module by tick the box, do nothing more, restart the phone first. After that you can config without any framework message error!
xposed works great
I using xposed for remote play (ps4)
and its workign great!

Yes and as i said, i used Xposed before. what i want to say with that is : I know how Xposed works and how to use it. I know that you have to "activate" modules with the checkbox.
still, GB won't work.

[Q] Can I install Xposed framework and GravityBox in my Galaxy Core II?

Hi, I bought a Samsung Galaxy Core II through my carrier's shop a week ago. I already rooted the phone. I'm also using Nova launcher 3.3 (latest), and everything else is stock. Core II came with Android 4.4.2 installed, carrier's version, but as I am a superuser, I've deleted a lot of useless stuff.
The question:
¿Can I install Xposed framework and GravityBox [KK] in this device?
This is what I'd install if someone here confirms that I can:
Xposed Installer 2.7 experimental1: http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
GravityBox [KK] 3.5.1: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.ceco.kitkat.gravitybox
Is it OK?
I've noticed, reading GravityBox's thread, this:
Compatibility
- Supports AOSP devices running vanilla Android 4.4
- Supports Motorola Moto G Dual SIM running stock KitKat
- Supports ThL 5000 running stock KitKat and potentially other MediaTek devices running pure MediaTek ROMs
- DOES NOT support devices running ROMs vastly modified by device manufacturers (HTC Sense, Samsung Touchwiz, MIUI, LeWa, Xperia, ...)
- SHOULD NOT be used with custom ROMs like CM, AOSPA, RootBox, SlimBean and others - it makes no sense since the most of the features are already
in the ROM (may cause conflicts and unexpected behaviour)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Does that mean that if you have a Samsung, Xperia, HTC... mobile, GravityBox won't work due to compatibility issues?
My goal is to change the function of the volume buttons to only modify the volume of "Music, video, games and other media", in every situation, so it doesn't matter if I'm in the home screen, in YouTube App or using Chrome, always change the "Music, etc" volume, not Notification's one, or Ringtone's, or system's. So if I accidentally press volume up, the phone does not changes from Mute to Sound, or changes the volume of the ringtone, and all that stuff. They told me that I can accomplish that with GravityBox.
Thanks, hope someone here can help me out!
Yes you can i have the same device and i installed xposed and gravity box and both worked well

Wow, thank you. Installed and working nicely. How awesome is GravityBox!
on my core 2 it says ''xopsed is not (yet) compatible with Android SDK version 19 or your processor architecture (armeabi-v7a).'' and so the install/update button is not highlighted.

Use the latest (v2.7 experimental1) Xposed.apk file from here.
Not compatible with core 2
I installedxxposed on core2 but it says not compatiblewith SDK 19. I installed a custom rom to make it run, but the rom was unstable so I had to go back to default Samsung core2 rom and now xposed is not working on the default Samsung rom. Amy way to make it run?

So you are running a KitKat ROM, right? You should use the Xposed v2.7 experimental1 from the Xposed repo.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Core 2 "SM-G355HN". There are other Samsung Galaxy Core 2 models that may behave different. It was very easy, though I did it long time ago, I don't remember well. I just followed the very simple and easy steps. First, I installed the Xposed framework, and then the module Gravity Box (for KitKat). But I don't remember the exact steps I did, sorry.
Same problem..framework wont update...bt i did it 1st time.. after uninstall it i cant update now...in galaxy core2..
firmware issue
my dear..............
ive searched solution for this problem because i already hv that problem you just download the old firmware of core 2 1 or two years back from sam mobile flash it root it again you will see xposed working im indeed a happy user of core 2 once again happy hacking......
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G355H/INU/
from there download firmware from date 2014 or less donot download firmwares greater than 2014 <year>

[MAGISK] [STOCK 7.0] LG G5 & V20 Camera

Hey everyone, here is a magisk module that will allow you to use both G5 and V20 cameras at the same time on a stock LG nougat rom.
For the ones that don't use magisk, delete the stock lg camera folder in priv-appp,then copy and paste only the two camera folders from my zip to priv-app.
Remember thatV20 camera app doesn't have manual photo or video yet on G5 cause of smali editing that's needed to put those options on the main screen. (now they are located on the second screen that only V10 and V20 have)
Enjoy (by the way re-uploads are welcome cause my Internet speed sucks. :laugh:

Thanks for this mod. Can these files be used in a Marshmallow environment? Or is the structure too different?
If the answer is no (as I suspect) this may be a good reason to upgrade to Nougat...

No,these are nougat only I'm afraid. By the way,you should know that V20 cam is still a bit buggy on G5,this mod is for the ones who just want to have them both at the same time ?
Was looking for something like this! Works perfectly on Fulmics. Thanks!

Which folder did you deleted and which folders did you copied in priv-app?? Did you set the permissions and rebooted after?
Is LGCameraApp from the G5 and LGCameraAppx from the V20, or is it the other way around? I'd like to install the stock Nougat Camera app on my wife's G5 (she's using LineageOS now).

N-ify and xposed in 8.4 BLU

Hi guys I surprisingly installed 8.4 version and xposed v87 with ease. I have been trying modules and although I can't embed a number in my sim (I have fixed this now!!) exposed seems to work all right
I have checked n-ify and was excited however the very old stable vesion doesn´t show correctly the quick settings, and the top buttons, quick shortcut to settings doesn't work. However I read in the xposed forum for this phone that various people got it working, they used daily builds where quick settings and even the Google assistant worked, posted on October I searched for these, but I got stuck on 650, and early September build, newer ones will crash the system UI and render the device unusable until I delete the apk folder.
Soo does anyone have it with quicksettings and working? thanks for your time and support!!
UPDATE: I have disabled version 650 when rotating the device it would make SystemUI crash, and i tried disabling features to make it stable again but didn't mind turning it off all together, support and testing from everyone is very welcome
yeap its works i dont how it works but i hope that issue with camera on nogat fixed

what version of n-ify are you using? and is your xposed installation systemless??? thanks for the help
Nify version:0.2 and install stock rom v21 update. Xposed v87 sdk 23 arm try and tell me if it works
I have the "modified" newest 8.4 Rom (downloaded here & TWRP flashed, latest SU v2.82 running with Busybox ) ... OTA disabled (of course) to avoid relocking the bootloader, etc. Xposed Installer v3.1.1 and then Xposed Framework v87 (API23) - reboot in between. Finally, GravityBox (MM) v6.3.7 running - that allows me to tweak & customize my Lockscreen, Statusbar, Pulldown, etc. - those couldn't be done on the near stock MM 6.0 debloated & already stripped of Amazon Apps.
Everything is running smooth & stable since the mod's are basic & minimal ... also, unrelated but added 6.0.1 Emojis for messaging. Going to run with this basic setup for a little while before I attempt to play with N-ify.
Working good over here as well...!
