I have one paid app installed to take pictures in raw (DNG) : Camera Fv 5. It used to work flawlessly at the same resolution (16mp) than the main camera app. But since my update to Android 6.0.1, the maximum resolution I have is 8mp. Did someone encounter the same problem? I have tried to use the app with stock non rooted rom and custom ones, and it's always the same problem. I am on latest Weta for SM G920F.
Yes I can confirm what you said. But I can't really know if they limited it or if it's the app itself that refuses to be compatible on 6.0
Same with proshot.
Developer said it was a firmware issue.
Same with Manual camera
I'm contacting Samsung about the issue right now, I'll update this post when I get an answer

Good luck.
Hi! I'm the developer of ProShot. On camera startup, the app asks the hardware which resolutions are supported. I'm guessing Samsung accidentally left out the 16MP option, similar to how they left out flash when the S6 first launched (was later patched in Android 5.0.2).
I'm hopeful they will address this issue soon
External camera app without raw support like camera zoom fx don't have this limitation...
Still haven't received a reply, which is weird. Perhaps they actually bother to check into it for once?
Thanks for sharing that, @edee1337
The support has sent me an answer; however since my device is a Norwegian-registered phone, the support couldn't assist me because Norway didn't receive the Marshmallow yet - and therefore this problem didn't apply to me.
May anyone else send a mail or contact support?

Great The only thing I still have to try if video is sent from one Android-Talk App to another... It doesn't work for the desktop at the moment and it doesn't work for the front camera... that's probably why Google just rolled it out for the Nexus S... I hope they'll fix that soon!

I placed said lib in correct-is it replacing something or just drop it in?

Uninstalled old app, and installed new app.

Anyone have any idea why I can't get write permission on the system folders? I'm using file expert with superuser access, but for some reason it just won't let me change access permissions on the system folders.

Not really. Somebody ported gcam to exynos device. Arnova atm is working on p10 I think.
Guys, make that camera app to system app and disable stock camera. Let's see if it works. I don't have root, other wise I would.
I installed the above uploaded camera apk, but, unfortunately, the app instantly closes after launch. The white camera for "loading screen" appears and after it, the app closes itself.

I am still not able to start the app. Is there something else required to do in order to make it run properly?
is there any updates here ?
The camera2.api must be enabled in order to run this app. I have MiA1 as secondary phone and its working perfectly due to snapdragon soc. And it is also working on some exynos phones.
Try to add 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1' in build.prop in order to test whether it is working on Honor 8.
as for what i've known, Honor 8 has its camera2.api enabled by default
Crash at start for now, after granting permissions
There is actually one gcam that is usable for Honor 8 (i just can't remember the download link but it's worse than the stock camera

This thread is a starter for the GCAM devs to hopefully provide us a working GCAM for the essential phone based on the new update. As of right now, you need to be on P at a minimum.
YOU NEED TO HAVE LOGCATS FOR HELP How to LOGCAT 101
You can also use a ondevice logcat tool, like matlog. I clear matlog, start it, directly create my problem, go back to matlog, stop it, then sort by "CAM" in this case, so i can see all camera related errors, then save it.
The idea is this.... all of the major gcam devs have the OP6 or something that isn't the essential phone. If we politely tag them, and have a logcat in hand, perhaps we can get support quicker for our device.
OP6 GCAM Thread
THIS IS FOR READING PURPOSES ONLY, DO NOT SPAM THEIR THREAD WITH REQUESTS, THERE WILL BE FM ACTION IN DOING SO
here is the link for @Arnova8G2 first beta
BETA 1
Hopefully, this will help get the ball rolling. Once i get home from work, i will have logcats for slo-mo, and no-hdr later.
If anybody else wants to help, again, please be descriptive with your problem, and provide a good logcat
@Arnova8G2 and @cstark27 (even though I know your moving on)
Here are logs:
1. Slomo crash. Slomo worked on test3, as long as we patch media profile, it works in general
2. No ability to take picture with hdr off
3. Taking a picture with zoom
I know these are already issues by in large. Maybe my logs will help.
Thank you for your help

Added newest al-ro build to 3rd post.
I'm curious if you have seen/looked at this before - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/themes/magisk-google-camera-telephoto-lens-t3767531 It's a mod for the Xiomi Mi A1 to be able to use the 2nd rear camera (telephoto) with Google Camera. I haven't tried it yet, kind of afraid to bootloop since it appears specific to the A1 phone. But was curious if what they've done can help get the monochrome camera working on Gcam and other apps in a similar way.
I know you (I think?) had discussed the challenges and limitations of this when asking Essential for support in an AMA in July/August in which Essential basically said "no." But wasn't sure if anything done with the A1 is different than what you've tried.

Happens on my device too. It actually didn't back when using some of the first Arnova8G2's 6.1.x builds (sorry I can't remember which exact versions).
There is a *partial* solution to launching it from lockscreen - wether it is actually locked or not - by simply having the app in memory.. But that's obviously far from ideal.
Was gonna try to gather some (hopefully) helpful logs but.. :

It's really weird.
Using SystemUI Tuner, I can also confirm the very same thing happens when swiping the corresponding lockscreen shortcut.
(OT : By the way, don't know why they were originally removed since adding back phone & camera shortcuts does make the bottom messages corresponding to the targetted function : "swipe right to make a call" & "swipe left to open camera".. something like that anyways)

Hey guys. About a week ago camera app started crashing when trying to switch to the rear camera.
I tried everything I (and Google support) could imagine - reinstalling the app, force-stopping it, clearing the cash, even factory reset of my phone - the problem is still there.
I have a non-rooted phone with all the latest updates both for the app and the system. Any suggestions?
Sounds like some type of hardware issue as if the "electronic signal" from the app itself is unable to either reach or make a stable connection to the hardware. Have you tried any 3rd party camera apps? If a 3rd party app, camera or otherwise, is able to swap between the front and rear camera's without any problem then it could be software. But if not, then it it's probably hardware. YMMV

Not sure about how to proceed with any bug report....but a bug is usually software, not hardware. If this is hardware and I believe that it is then some type of warranty, or out of pocket repair will be needed. Maybe someone else will chime in with a better solution.
