Hi,
I flashed the new DFT Freedom ROM a few days ago and noticed a new icon in my Camera App, does someone know what it does? (circled icon in the attachment)
That is view from the camera's in the mirror reflection (horizontally). BTW you can check what you have resolution for recording movie ? In that ROM is 720p but I can't set that.
Hi, thanks for the answer, that's indeed it. How could I miss that?
as for the video resolution: on my Mozart I can set it to 720p and I am also able to save that as default. However, when I enable the mirror mode I can't change them to 720p.
On Phones with a front facing camera this button allows you to switch between the front and back camera.

The icon in question is for switching between the rear and front camera on phones with the two cameras.
Go play with a Gen 2 windows phone... You'll see that's exactly what it's for

My Dear,
due DFT used the some parts of the Titan Rom, this icon is used to switched between front and back camera on Titan. It is obviously useless on First Gen devices due the lack of a front camera. Get rid of it by changing this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Camera\Settings\FFCSupported to "0"
btw. The Settings spelling is a problem of xda.
Selfio is a unique app with a patented idea of using front cam of your device to frame and back cam to shoot the same image.
Frame your selfie using front cam.
Flip such that back cam faces you
Device senses flip and shoots your selfie in HD with flash if needed.
It is available on play store now and will soon be available on app store too. Please download and tell me what you guys think. It uses magnetometer to sense flipping. Working on gyro sensing now.
Nice app but most of the time the delay is very long and picture gets blurred by moving the device. There should be a help section or tutorial.
nice
Great app work but sometime fails to give hd image.Quality is not too fine,,as it delays while capturing image.
Thank you guys

Anand, have you tried setting resolution to maximum inside the settings? also, can you share what device you are using? Because we are aware of a bug on Nexus 5 and a few other devices and we are fixing it with next update.

Thahim, thank you for your comments. Can you let me know what device you tried it on? Also, help is inside the settings gear. We are trying to design a better design for the tutorials.
*Generic warning about messing with system stuff*
Summary
Thanks to @defcomg and @troopii, we have a working way to enable manual camera functions and .dng raw file capture on our Moto X Pure. This is still a work in progress as you will see.
Steps
Method 1:
1. Enable camera2 api by adding the line persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 to the bottom of your build.prop.
2. Reboot
3. Install the modified version of FreeDCam from this thread.
4. Open FreeDCam. It will probably force close.
5. Open FreeDCam again.
6. Explore to see what you can do. On the left of the capture screen is the option to change from jpeg to raw. This will save .dng files that you can edit in Snapseed or other raw editors (including Adobe Lightroom on the PC).
By changing the exposure mode or focus mode off of auto, you can then click on the gear in the lower left of the capture screen and change your shutter speed, iso, and use manual focus. There are a few other things you can change here too.
Edit: method 2 removed because of incompleteness and unknown errors.
Warnings
1. Using method 1 will disable all other camera applications on your device until you revert the build.prop changes. We don't know why yet, but the symptoms are that the preview of other camera apps never start and always show black.
Future Action
Hopefully we aren't done. It would be great to find out what is limiting the full implementation of camera2 on this device. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.
contributors
@defcomg - He made most of the device specific edits, guided me through making edits to my device and testing, figured out how to correctly encode the dng, and is generally awesome. He also doesn't own this device and is helping out of the goodness of his heart. Also figured out the tasker stuff.
@troopii - Main developer of FreeDCam. He made the app and also made some important edits to get this working.
I just tested and wrote the thread so all of you could benefit from their labors. They get all the credit.
Go, have fun modifying your device. Hopefully some devs will want to get involved and get real camera2 support for this device. It's almost there. For details on our progress so far, read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...ra-comparison-stock-vs-3rd-party-app-t3215603. We hijacked that thread, so please bring all discussion back here.

Haha I called it! lol defcomg and other devs cracked it open! Only bugs left to fix. You guys rock!
What about Geeky Dev Studio? Wonder if its possible to port the Google Camera over with the HDR+!
Oh also, does anyone know of any app that can sample the images down to less mp but end up with insanely crisp photos?

Unfortunately Xplay is using the Older QCOM HAL 2 for camera 2 api you need HAL 3.0.
but you can try freedcam in Camera 1 Mode i added QCOM's Manual Focus and Manual Exosure time. Raw picture is possible without camera 2 but motorola removed it from picture format perhaps they is a workaround to force hal to accept the bayer picture format will try hexxing the hal later and get back to you, but for the moment you can test those manaul functions .

bummer.....lets see if the workaround works.....
thanks btw!
i will later change the manual modes that they are better useable in freedcam. that means that exposuretime iso and mf get a auto value wich enables/disables ae/focus automatical.
camera2 is full based on the sdk description thats why it is not very userfriendly. but it was important to have it this way to see how it works.
great to see its working ;D

motox has a messed up dngconverter. we did use the one from freedcam for camera1 to workaround that bug.
not sure why the preview is black. maybe it has something todo how the preview gets cropped. freedcam crop it depending on the previewsize and screensize.
had simliar problem when i tryed to get zoom working on nexus5
Awesome guys! Thank you very much!
Its working on my XT1572
Keep up your great work to make it available in all Apps.
Whats the max exposure time you can get on manual mode?

I believe the max we have enabled in the app is 1/5 of a second. The theoretical max is more, I think, so it will probably get better.

Nope this is different It uses camera1 api so regular apps work and no camera 2 bug. No reported bugs by the tester so far.

Upload the camera.msm8992.so from those roms if its aosp/ cm based the file might be named camera.vendor or vendor.camera
the only thing i see is a liboemcamera.so . i'll upload it maybe this is it
nothing in my file search is picking up any vendor.camera or camera.vendor
View attachment liboemcamera.so.zip
This is coming from the TURBO ROM btw. idk if there's any difference. sorry im not good at this lol

Sorry the correct path is /system/lib/hw/ try the lib from OP my bad
This is the one that goes to /system/vendor/lib/ this is supposed to increase maximum exposure time in manual mode to 60sec.
Can probably mod it to add 60fps 1080p recording
Works wonders ! thank you
Cool App!

You mean manual iso the one you adjust via slider or the other one to the left of the ui?
For Exposure you mean exposure compensation or manual shutter speed ?.
It should be noted the regular iso does not update via live preview unless zsl is activated why I don't know it's a Qualcomm thing .

Hi again! I can believe that OP didnt give us the option to record video with the wide angle lens. I've found it very useful. So, searching a little bit, i find this code *#*#1597#*#* that you put in dialer, to open de developer camera api.
Digging into the app, i realize that you CAN record 1080p video with the wide lens, so.. theres any mod to skip this awful step, copying the code, everytime i wanna use this function?
I dont know why we dont have this option native in the app.
PS: sorry for my bad english!

What are you talking about? I dont understand. The black background on a portrait mode is a Samsung Feature, for example.
You're holding it wrong.
Why won't phone manufacturers fix this obvious problem?
IE, when the phone is held vertically the capture is still a proper 16x9 wide screen?
Vertical video capture is ruining everything!

Hey! Calm down. That was just a test. I think we would be more open mind. Some content its better to see in horizontal, other content its better in vertical. Im a photographer and sometimes, there are stories that are better to told in vertical, cuz i wanna told you something in that form, for example, this pics here: the vertical one, have a special touch, a unique point of view im comparison to the horizontal one

Sorry if I came off sounding harsh, it's a major pet peeve of mine!
Still photos in portrait orientation are fine obviously.
It's the video that's the issue.
A simple solution to this problem can be fixed on all devices, not sure why the manufacturers don't implement it!
