I was thinking maybe if there's an exploit which can fool 3rd party softwares such as fring and future skype so that it doesn't search for front camera but it rather uses the back camera. This way atleast even if you don't use the back camera of defy you'll be able to see the other person...so what do you think? anyone up for making something which can enable this function?
That would be a good idea, you could carry a make-up mirror too and maybe reflect the rear camera to the front ;-)
I mean, it's an idea but of course if an expert doesn't have a look at this thread, this will be a waste..
Yahoo and ooVoo work dandy with rear camera.
i thought fring already did that too
I use Tango its on the market free
I've used fring, and no it doesn't use rear camera...none of those apps use rear camera...not sure about tango if you can do video call with it using defy?
yahoo do use back camera. just tested it last night.

Thanks
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?

Just adding my voice to this. Works great. I didn't have to add any mods or hacks to get this working like some of the other camera mods took. Very pleased.

Hi guys, hope this helps. I started using the Footej Camera from Google play. I found it loads better than any modes or apps. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.footej.camera
Anyone figured any working gcam 5.1 for razer? Bsg 1.4a is the only one with proper dng for raw but no exposure settings
I can't seem to get the front camera to work. Anyone else have this issue?
Anything later than
"MGC-5.1.018_FullManual_v1.4a_Android-7.0+"
working for Razer Phone "1"? Seen some for Razer 2 but thats the only one that works for me

Hi, I have the same problem now with my Pixel 3a and Android 10 (everything stock). Before updating everything was fine.
I contacted pixel support and they told me that may be one of my apps that's messing with the camera, and to unistall my apps one by one to try to find which one is responsible for this situation (in safe mode the camera is working fine).
Did you find some way to fix it?
Hi there. Same here, glad to find I am not alone.
After some panic and then some 4 hours night trying all the apps, trying safe mode etc. I know the culprit: it is Google App with Assistant listening in the background. When you set the voice match to listen to your "OK Google" command (in G App setting->voice match) then you have the hiss. When you turn the function off it goes away. What is funny there is no hiss if you record using front camera. At least good it is not hardware, but extremely unpro from Google as it is their own app that causes the problem. I guess Android 10 is just not polished yet.
I am searching for the most direct way to report it, already did it through settings->tips&co->feedback, but would like to directly contact the Google App devs. Any idea?

Hi, thank you very much, it worked!
I don't know any other way to contact the Google Apps devs, but I'm sending an email to the Google support agent I talked with yesterday for this problem.
If you find another way to report it, let me know and I'll do it too.
Have a nice day.

Could you send me his/her e-mail address as well? I would report it wherever possible as many times as possible And keep us posted if any news - as will I.
I would guess that not many people might have noticed the bug yet (it's like 3 days since the debut of Android 10), but as it is software based and on a fresh, new Android version then perhaps quite a bunch of people are having this bug, but don't know about it yet or don't know where to find help.

Your solution work very well and solve the problem!!!
Thanks!!!
Happy to help Still the issue is not really resolved as this solution handicaps one of Assistants main functions.
I have reported it here: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/14361608?hl=en
Hope this helps and the issue is resolved with the next update of Android 10 or Google App.
Aside from the hiss problem, does the audio recording quality on A10 is the same from Android 9? For videos and audio messages...
I didn't notice any quality loss
For the hiss problema I send a feedback with "tips & support" in settings!
Hey guys. The solution I was writing about before turned out temporary (and it is not a true solution as it is spoling the actual function of the Assistant) and even with Voice Match for Assistant being turned off I got the hiss (I guess it got this way after some minor Google app update). This is unnacceptable, especially that it is Google's own core app doing it on a Google phone :/ I might just buy that Oneplus 7T if they don't fix it with October update :/
Oh, I have created an official issue thread on Google's issue tracker. Please star and comment so that they see the bug, thanks: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/141968224
Even when I disabled Voice Match, I still had the hiss while recording video and audio. I still think it is software because there is no hiss using Duo. This hiss only seems to be present when I record video or use the voice recorder. My wife's Pixel 3a doesn't seem to have the issue.
Try the Jan 2020 update. Release notes say they fixed the audio issue with video recording. Worth a shot. "Improvements for audio in video capture."
Source: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/24852169
Edit: source link added
January update fixed the hiss for me.
Can someone with this device try the app "house party" and see if they can keep the front camera open during a video call?
If not and this is just an unfortunate bug in the app, is there a way for me to force the front camera open (via software)? I'm rooted.
Thank you in advance XDA.

Works fine for me. I'm stock
