I have the latest Wichaya's GCam on my Z8. Started having a problem - after taking a picture I click on gallery button (at the bottom right) to view the picture just taken. The picture flashes on the screen for a second then vanishes and the camera preview stays black.
I had this problem before and solved it before in the GCam settings Advanced > Use a third party gallery - turning this off and then back on.
No luck this time. Any Ideas that I could try?
Thanks.

I like to use the front camera to take pictures of me. In the phone all the pictures look good and are ok to send as mms, but downloaded in the pc look horrible. The size it's ok to me but squares appear on the pictures, it looks like a drawing.
It seems that the front camera take good pictures but then applies some kind of data compression.
Any idea/customizing to solve this?
Many thanks in advance.
I got my s730 3 days ago and I still can't figure out how to use the front camera can anyone please show me how to do it???
When you are in camera mode press left button (menu) and in the middle icon (its like a camera) select the third option.
I have recently install Pic2Shop on my HD2 WP7. When I try to use the camera to scan the barcode on a product - the image is blurry. Pic2shop then says that it can not read the barcode, and to focus the image - it suggests to hold the shutter button half way down. I find that I can not do that on my HD2 with it triggering the shutter. How do you focus the camera on WP7? Anyone else run into this?
You cant until the developers fix this non focusing problem on our HD2 builds...
delete the app and wait
That's not right. Maybe with this barcode app you can't focus, but with the normal camera app its possible. Just change into camcorder mode, the focus will sharpen the picture, then change back to camera and take a photo, have fun!

It's true but I take the pic quickly because focus blurs again slowly
unfortunately the app disables the cam mode
As a temporary measure until it is fixed you can always enter the code manually
Try this

I found a fix on a youtube channel for portrait mode for front camera after a lot of googling. The key is to set a manual iso (idk why) while using front camera. The link to that is here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/16BT6C02pgvO3usJxCe8C0u_sVi9CbMOI/view?usp=sharing
Instruction -
Enable camera2api.
Download app, instalL.
Open settings and then do the settings u like.(i use pixel 2 and pixel 2017 zsl+ ) and other obvious settings( like turning on portrait mode etc.)
After that set the MANUAL FIXED BLACK LEVEL ONSET to 63.50 and enable.
Now everytime you use the front camera you have to turn that left slider (which i think is of iso) to 100 or any other value from auto, then hdr+ and portrait mode in front camera will also work.
This is not my work , i am only sharing it.
Credits to people who made this (arnovag2 ,TCHNO VKKI youtube channel guy etc.)
This is my first post and i dont really know what to add in your posts ,(also not liking typing this much) but i thought everyone should know this fix.
Hit thanks if this helped you.(actually idk what thanks is for LOL)
Cheers!

I checked it ... it doesn't work in miui globle stable rom 9.2.5 in redmi4....i also tried many apks but no one is running correctly if front cam works back cam doesn't even some of didn't even opening and keeps closing all the time...(my phone is rooted and camera2 api is enabled)
the app on works in custom roms like rr rom,pixel experience rom...
It works, thanks! Tested on redmi 4x with MIUI9.2. Just don't go with the ISO too high. ISO3200 and above force crash camera app.
Front & Back portrait working nicely. But video recording getting some continues sound.
Something happened to my camera app, not exactly sure when. The desktop icon changed. And it is no longer linked to google photos... also in google photos I don't find a setting to add a direct connection. So maybe google photos changed (also)? Can someone confirm or explain this? Am I missing something? Swiping to the left used to get me into google photos and review pictures right after they were taken. Now swiping just moves between mode selection, camera and video. I am running Oreo 8.0 Feb.1 patch on a rooted US AndroidOne X4
The camera app just updated.
And now it no longer couples to google photos? That's some improvement...
there is some problem in video recording mode for 1080p60fps
normal and wide angle icons works in opposite way
if u press on wide angle icon, u get narrow field of view
and if u press normal icon, u get a little wide field of view
In these thread i try to collect the best working gCam Version for the Xiaomi Mi A2 with the best functional and stable config. I get a lot of private messages because of the lack of good configurations. I try nearly every gCam version in the wild and always check the website from "celsoazevedo" for newer ones. Big THX to him, for the nice collection (www.celsoazevedo.com) and the Devs of the different kind of gCam mods. This mods are incredible and a game changer in the smartphone market! THX
Requierment: Activate Camera2Api
Best working Version so far (04.10.2018):
GCam-5.1.018-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.3bfix.apk
Info: Focus Dots on clear blue sky can be reproduced. On yellow (i have just a yellow book and a banana) is nothing to see. I will added the strengh of focus dots to my criteria. In the attachment are three cropped pictrure (1/9 of the pic - center/focus) of clear bright blue sky, a bookcover with an own structure and a banana - all in heavy sunlight. The dots are just slithly visible in the sky... The Focus Dots on SkulShady builds are way stronger and bigger. I will test more builds in the next days.
Whats not working (with this version+config):
- 1080p in 60fps (heavy zoom - every gCam Version)
- 4K Video (Fatal Error - every gCam Version)
- Motion Pictures ('No HDR' & 'HDR+' - brake frontcam in normal mode)
Missing Features:
- Google Lens (need build 5.3.x)
- 20MP front-cam mode (just 5MP - every gCam Version, because camera2api limitation)
Working:
- All Photo features front+back
(Panorama, Photo Spehre, Focus Effect, Portrait)
- No HDR, HDR+, HDR+ enchased
- 1080p (30fps)
- Slow Motion Video (120fps)
- RAW+JPEG
- front focus led in 'No HDR' pictures
See config in the Attachment! :highfive: and dont forget to close and restart the app after configuration.
Update (06.10.2018): A new (older release) gladiator entered the arena to mess with Arnovas release. In reason of focus dots i played around with this version of gcam (THX to saneklic):
GCamera_Mod_v.5.1.23_R5Plus_fix_crash.apk
Unfortunatly its very cloudy in marroco, but first tests show no focus dots. More tests and a deep comparision (even with longer exposure pics) will follow. The important thing is, this release support the same video and photo capabilities. But more tests will come... At first this release is the new compatitor. The settings are complete different and i think, maybe low light might be difficult to beat, compared to Arnovas release - but we will
Update ENdOfLife: My device rebooted and stayed in a bootloop. I tryed to flash just the boot img etc. but the storage mmc gets corrupted :silly: all my vacation pics are gone. Thank sou Xiaomi. I send the device back and bought a OnePlus 6. Thats why im out here - sorry! :crying:
My Device: Xiaomi Mi A2 64/4 (no root/camera2api :good

Im actually for 10days in Marraco and make every picrure with the gCam (bright, dark, high contrast pictures) and cant recognize any focus dots :fingers-crossed. But i will take care about that dots
Update: i made some bright blue sky pics and can see the dots. I will try to find a plane yellow surface. But actually all seems fine. (I know, Arnova posted about a wrong raw mode from the dual camera driver - but still, i cant the any dot).
Update2: On a yellow book i photographed is nothing to see. But i put my attention to the strengh of the dots
Update 3: yellow banana in bright sun - no dots.

Check Settings for: „use classic smartburst“, restart App (close complete and Start) and voila
Im sure, front cam just works right now, when you switch at first to portrait mode and then switch to frontcam.
