I have a little strange problem with Camera application after changing DPI in my S6.
After rooting I changed DPI as in every my device. Everything was fine except Camera app: there is a much smaller window with application, there is also some problem with on-screen buttons reaction.
I changed DPI in many devices and NEVER have such problem.
Any suggestions? For now I go back to stock DPI, but it sucks for me...
This is a natural occurrence since the camera app is baked in. I have the same issues with the dialer and calculator. Use Google camera instead.
Would deodexed ROM be solution?

I'm using the Motorola Triumph on Virgin Mobile, but for some reason whenever I open my Camera application (or any app that uses my camera I.E Yelp/Google Goggles) the camera is blue and green, much like a thermal sensor, and the front view camera's color spectrum is normal. I'm running a beta version of CM7 and its worked properly for as long as I've had it, and now I can't find a way to reset it back to normal. I've tried resetting the camera to default settings, looking at the other apps and seeing if I've accidentally changed any settings that could potentially cause this situation. On a side note, all the color effects on my front-facing camera have never worked, just wondering if that's due to the beta version of CM7, or something else I can fix. Either way, it'd be great to have an answer!
Try backing up your apps, texts, and data (if you want) then doing a full wipe with CMW and reinstall CM7... Also if you aren't using the newest version (B.08 or Cm-tg-reloaded) Then you may want to try those out and see if they work any better.
it randomly fixed after a reboot and then I just upgraded and everything works besides the color effects on the front facing camera

Hey everyone!
I am experiencing an issue with Google Camera on a Samsung Galaxy S2 (T-989) using KitKat ROM's (currently on SlimKat build 7, though I also tried the latest Carbon ROM and the same issue is present there)
Here's the description of the issue:
When I open Google Camera (the one downloaded from Play Store, which has PhotoSphere functionality), the app will open up fine. I can also switch to any of the modes (photo, video, panorama, PhotoSphere) fine. However, if I switch to Panorama or PhotoSphere mode, I will be unable to switch back to photo or video mode; the viewfinder will simply freeze up (the camera app still responds to touch, but the viewfinder will be stuck in the panorama/PhotoSphere mode and the screen doesn't update). Attempting to tweak the settings or switch to another mode at this point will often result in the app crashing (forced stop).
The default camera app that comes with the SlimKat ROM works fine, but I am really hoping to have a working PhotoSphere camera on the S2 if possible (GalaxyS2Roots.com reported the Google Camera to be working "flawlessly" on Carbon ROM, but not for me!)
Does anyone know if this is a known issue in KK for this particular phone?
So I rooted my S6 and changed my DPI to 540 because 640 is just clunky. Just one little issue. Everything scales perfectly fine except the stock camera app. The camera even works properly in apps, its only the stock app. Is there any fix for this?
I'm gonna assume no one has any idea
Can i apply different dpi to selected app? I can't do it anymore with appsettings because xposed not work in s6 g920f

Slightly off topic, but I can't stand the noticeable screen sharpening on text with the s6. Wish I could disable it somehow...
Have anyone else been getting a "Camera fatal error" message with the camera app crashing repeatedly, also saying "can't connect to camera device". I have reset the phone and setup as new, deleted the app cache and data. So far nothing helps. It's random, I can't replicate it with specific action but it's super annoying. Yesterday the camera app crashed about 5 times in a row before it got usable again.
there is multiple people reporting this at other sites - so far no resolution, even on google support forum. Do you think it's a defective hardware or something that can be fixed with next update? I really like the pictures from the phone and how super smooth it is when working but the entire system is half baked. Many features not working or different apps crashing. this is my first google phone and I am quite surprised to have some many software issues as I thought google is firstly software company.
Yes it happens to me often as well. I think it's a common problem especially if you use the camera frequently.
That's the first I've heard of this and even read about it on the web. I use my camera a lot and so doubt it's to do with usage.
Hopefully it's not a hardware issue for you!
Me too
I am getting this problem as well. Also on occasion, I get purple bars across the image. After much frustration and a system wipe, it was still happening so Google sent me a replacement.
Video camera has crashed twice for me in the month I've had the camera.
ME TOO! Problem is reduced if resolution is reduced to 4K. Also Camera FV-5 doesn't crash - problem is app not hardware.

Reduced to 4K? That's the highest resolution.
Original setting was 12 Meg per image, I reduced to 7.7 and for a while that worked better, then that stopped, I set the resolution back to 12 and since then it has been working fine and quick.

It's difficult to tell if that sort of change made a difference or if the problem is just random.
Hi everyone,
For the short version i 'd like to know if there is a possibility to skip the lockscreen password when launching a non-stock camera app for the lockscreen shortcut ?
For the longer version :
It all started 6 month ago when i updated my S7 (exynos) with the Oreo update (via OTA). Short after this update, i started to notice some picture taken with my stock camera app were really bad, like compressed for MMS.
The phenomenon seems kinda random and can appear on any light condition (even outiside with good daylight). I factory reseted my phone but the problem remain.
So after a while living with this issue, is installed recently a GCAM prot for S7 which seems to give way better quality than stock (need to be confirmed in the long term). I decided to replace the stock camera app on all the shortcuts on my phone (launcher and lockscreen). And here comes my question :
The password skip function when launching stock camera app is really handy. so is there a way to have the same function on any camera app ? (i would love the same function with the calculator app ^^)
Am i the only one facing stock camera quality issue since oreo udate ? i found no thread in the forum.
Thank you in advance

You can chose any shortcuts you wish for the lock screen which bypass the screen lock to use, look on the lockscreen setting menu.

Choosing the shortcut is not my problem.
Right now, the only shortcut that skip the password screen is the camera. Even the default phone shortcut doesn't do that.
And I don't have any option in Lockscreen settings to choose which app bypass or not
You have an odd problem I always use the default camera app from the lockscreen and the quality is the same as launching the app from the home screen....I'm guessing is working properly when you lunch it from the launcher?
