Hello, I have a problem with rear camera on my Nokia 7.2, Lineage 18.1. In the attachment there is the comparison. Front camera is ok, video mode is ok, but rear camera is very off, regardless app beside WhatsApp. Outside it is, let's say, acceptable, but whenever it's not sun the results are terrible. Does it happen to you too? Is it fixable? Does it happen on stock ROM too? Do you know where the problem comes from?
Thanks.
edit1: I continue my research. Maybe my progress will help someone with similar issues. Found out my camera chip is Samsung S5KGM1SP. Some of the GCAMs have option for chip-specific white balance, one which is working for me is from BSG - mgc_8.1.101_A9_GV1u_ENG, I set the autobalance chip and in the viewfinder it's still bad, but when I take a photo it's alright with the righ WB.
Same problem on Pixel Experience 10 (partially solved by setting Pixel 4a in camera app) and Lineage OS 18.1. I suppose that it goes from non-stock vendor.
Stock rom&camera works good, no yellowing.

I'm experiencing problem with my Xiaomi MI4 front camera. Everytime I capture a video from front camera, the resulting video is flipped horizontally. But capturing images from front camera just works fine, though rarely it flips image too, that happens cause of the angle we hold the camera to take the picture. And that can be fixed with apps like Pixlr. But the video...it really sucks. It gets flipped every f**king time, doesn't matter what the capturing angle has been. Please someone help fixing this bug!!!
Thanks in advance. ?
I installed Resurrection Remix (RR-N-v5.8.0-20170114-kenzo-Nightly.zip) on my kate. I also have microG installed. Everything works great except for two things:
The camera is extremely grainy and low resolution. The phone has a 13 MP camera but the image looks like 5 MP tops. Additionally, the camera has terrible stuttering issues when moving. The same thing happens with recording video. I have tried installing alternative camera apps from F-droid, but the problem persists.
GPS works very badly, it detects a few satellites at most and there seems to be no support for GLONASS and a few other navigation systems. Only GPS satellites are displayed in SatStat.
Is it caused by the wrong drivers? If so, how can I install the Kate drivers on this ROM?
Hi everyone,
I'm facing an issue with burst shooting.
When I burst-shoot photos in mid to low light conditions using the HTC stock camera app, I can see that most of the photos (except the first 3-5 photos) are filled with colorful noise all over them...
I'm using an EMEA HTC U11 128GB model with 1.27.401.5 software and camera app v9.20.9740975.
Am I the only one that facing this issue?
Please refer to the attachments to see the problem yourself.
Left image is the third burst-shot and looks OK.
Right image is the fifth burst-shot and looks very grainy (all the burst shots from the 5th and on look like that)
There is nothing wrong with it. Burst mode does not have the noise reduction algorithms which are available in hdr auto mode. Therefore these shots are perfectly normal in bad light conditions. Mine does the same.

When I capture burst shots on the ported google camera app, all photos are looking just fine without all that densed noise so I think you are wrong. You can try it yourself.
Something is very wrong with this feature on stock camera app on my side, I'm sure that it doesn't need to look like that at all.
I see a clear difference between the 3 to 5 first shots and all the rest, it's like they were taken by a different sensor!
I thought you were asking if your phone has a problem or not, so I answered according to what I understood.
It's how the stock camera app is. It needs some updates to fix these issues, there is nothing we can do about it except waiting.
I do believe that google camera is superior to stock app with good settings in almost every condition therefore I use google camera.

Thanks for the clarification.
Meanwhile I will continue to use burst captures only on Google Camera app.
Hope that HTC knows about this issue and trying to fix this as we speak. :fingers-crossed:
I have had no issues at all for almost an year with this phone. I was running oreo ever since I bought this phone. Suddenly, a day or two before upgrading it to pie 9.0, I found out in my Snapchat app that there was no back camera sign. First I thought, some weird snap update, but then I found out in system Camera app, it was even not showing the back camera. Whenever I would click on the rear camera sign from the top in Camera app, it would keep on swapping to the frontal secondary camera and then back to the primary frontal camera but no back camera was working. Also I found out that my Flashlight icon is hardened or greyed out, like it's been disabled forcefully. I can make it work using some other app, but it is frustrating why this is happening.
Now I am on android 9, rooted, and this problem keeps on coming and going. At times the back camera won't even work or open with the error "Camera not working" etc. Sometimes, the back camera would work but with only 3 weirded resolutions, like 12MP, 16MP, and some other. and the video mode will be extremely large or zoomed in at 16MP. Suddenly, the camera will start working normally again with all the perfect default resolutions. I tried everything from SAFE MODE to CLEARING THE CAM APP, RESETTING THE APP, but nothing works. All it seems like that camera has suddenly came to life and has a self-consciousness and a mood which it is controlling itself. Sometimes it wants to work and at times, it simply just gets disabled. Any idea what could be the problem? I am rooted using MAGISK.
Simular camera problems with Lenovo tab v7
I have a Lenovo tab v7 with almost the same problems, the rear camera wont work but occasionally the front camera works and the flash LED is dead.
Running Android 9 Pie as well, but not rooted yet.
Any ideas about what we can do about it, is the camera hardware due to be replaced?

It suddenly started happening almost a month ago, I was on oreo 8 and then upgraded to pie 9 but the problem persisted. It kept working for few days and then started to make problems again. I tried to read many forums for android users with the same problem but still haven't found a single complete fix for this problem other than that the rear camera needs to be refixed. But I am finding it hard to believe that even if camera was getting bad, there is no point of FlashLight getting greyed out/disable from the notification bar. It seems more like some kind of a process is not releasing the rear camera and flashlight module/process.
Has anyone else also noticed photos come out with weird, massively boosted brightness and everything when taken with 2x zoom or higher on stock camera? Strange thing is even at 1.9x zoom everything is fine but 2x and beyond the photo is basically ruined because of this. Very annoying.
HDR and other enhancements are turned off, yet this occurs.
Doesn't happen on GCam. Any idea/solutions? Thanks
Tried here. No issue. And 2x zoom photo from stock cam was better than GCam 8.3 for me.
Didi you activate HDR and IA options in stock cam?
Yes they're all deactivated. No problem upto 1.9x zoom, but as soon as 2x zoom is engaged, there's a sudden although small change on viewfinder white balance. And final photos look extremely bright and noisy compared to 1.9x and below, as if some weird filter is put on. I've downgraded the camera but still happens.
Btw, bootloader is unlocked, not sure if that's got anything to do with it.
Its interesting if you don't have this problem. What's ur software channel and build number? Thanks
Without this bug, you'll generally get better zoomed images on stock camera because it'll use 64mp crop instead of only 16mp recognized by GCam. But this bug ruins it.
Unzoomed though, GCam's HDR+ is still the best.
Just discovered this thread.
Yes, I have the same problem. But it looks like the effect is not the same everytime. Maybe depending on light (indoors vs. outdoors)?
I noticed it happens when i zoom in in worse scenes. It could be that the automatic camera mode is overcompensating by cranking the iso way too high. Have you tried using the pro camera mode?

Yes, but I don't think pro mode uses 64mp crop like auto mode, just a crop of 16mp, which doesn't have much detail that's required during zoom. Also it's annoying trying to switch to pro mode everytime.
