mi a2 gcam front camera only 5mp ?

Is there anyway to use the full 20mp in front facing camera.. All gcam takes default 5mp by pixel binding.. also flash didn't work like stock... It acts like a torch while capturing photo

i am using miui 12 pie and both stock and gcam are working at the same time .....
both have their advantages....
1. gcam uses pixel binning ( combining ) them
_so your camera is not really using 5mpx ..it is using max pixels merged into a 5mpx output_
_this might give you a good or better looking photo than some 20mpx sensors on some phones
_people use gcam because of Google's theoretical excellence in processing photos *** therefore better photos than stock ... because if you feel.stock has better photos than there is no argument for using gcam
2. gcam mods which allow you to choose to manually force the gcam to use the secondary ( aux ) exist ...you can use it in combo with magisk modules
_dont expect a giant leap in photo quality since our aux sensor is for low light ...and was never meant not even by Xiaomi to act as the main shooter
_stock camera changing between sensors automatically while in gcam.you will. have to.do.it manually _
_VERY IMPORTANTLy ...our aux sensor is NOT api2 compliant only our main sensor ...as per Xiaomi ...so Xiaomi needs to fix that if it can be fixed....that is why our phone isn't released with api2 enabled..
Options:
1. Use magisk module in stock rom to get stock camera
2. Use stock rom to use miui 12 pie to get both stock and gcam working at the same time
3. Use gcam with aux sensor select button in settings to activate it manually in custom rom
4. buy a jasmine or wayne device and donate it to gcam.modder or dev stating your wish that he/she fixes it so it runs how you feel.it should run
I'm pretty certain this info is old and if you looked you'd find all the magisk modules and gcams and mods and info floating around ...
go check out the official gcam mods page for devs working on cams for our device and try them.all to find the one you like best and maybe give them.a small donation
try out the stock cam magisk module to see if it works correctly on custom rom
failing that just your miui with magisk to have it all.
Stock makes great depth of field photos imho
Gcam takes richer photos in general like but if you aren't careful you might run in oversaturation ..more options
_you can enable arcore and ar stickers by magisk mod and using patched playground from gcam mods page
This doesn't seem to be a GCam issue... All camera apps just see 5MP for the front and secondary back camera. It's probably an internal issue with Camera2Api?

Sony camera app does not use the telephoto lens?!

Recently I noticed that the stock Sony camera app does not use the telephoto lens at all !?!!
I am on the stock Android 11 (59.1.A.2.28).
Can someone else confirm or reject this?
You can simply cover the telephoto lens with your finger and switch the zoom to 2x on the camera app... (The telephoto lens is the lowest one on the back)
When I installed another camera app (Open Camera for example) it can take pictures with the telephoto and they definitely look different that that taken with the Sony app and 2x zoom.
This finding shocked me a lot! What do you think?
It turns out the software decides weather or not to use the actual telephoto lens based on lightning conditions and maybe something else..
Sometimes it actually uses the telephoto, sometimes doesn't...

Tried Open Camera, but couldn't use the wide camera, I just could use with the Sony stock camera.

Question Gcam and Camera performance in OneUi 4 (Exynos)

Has anyone with an Exynos device had the chance to test if Gcam works for all lenses in the new Oneui4? Also, how does the quality of photos seem in the normal camera app?
Gcam wichaya with s21 settings works well, sometimes better then Stock camera, but missing special focus and Max zoom

Help with ANX Camera (Freeze on some features)

Hello,
My Redmi Note 9 is working perfectly with Pixel Experience ROM. And for the camera I have GCam and ANX Camera, but with GCam I cannot take advantage of all the sensors and do not have 48 MP. With ANX Camera I have detected some problems.
1. It freezes when I try to use the Macro lens options or the UW lens.
2. Filters do absolutely nothing. When I take a photo with a filter, the application closes.
3. Night mode closes when taking the picture.
Does anyone know how I can correct these problems? I am using ANXCameraUnity.190R.BontifulDistantHapuka
Thank you,
Rene
