Wrong orientation of the camera after remplacement - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
I've recently bought a new camera for my Nexus 4. No problem with the installation but when I start the camera app, the image is upside down.
The rotation of the screens works well, so I don't think it's a gyroscopic problem.
It's like I didn't put the camera on the good way, but I did! (I reopened my Nexus, it was the only way possible)
Do anyone have an idea? Is it possible to reset the parametre of the camera?
I've tried:
- take picture with another app
- record video
- disable auto rotate / enable auto rotate
Thank you very much for any help!!
PS: I can't post image but I have some on imgur..

Could you take a screenshot in the camera app.

[Q] MIUI Front Camera Issue

Hey guys, I apologize if this question has already been asked, and for posting to the general thread but I am not able to post to the MIUI thread.
I just installed MIUI 1.8.5
When i switch to the front facing camera it goes green and glitchy like a bad video feed, this only happens in camera mode for the preview and not for video. The pictures capture fine but the preview is useless.
If you can help or direct me to the best place to find information on this it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks much.
Try checking the MIUI forum for aa solution as well. I'd wipe and reflash as a last resort.

Lower the resolution on the front camera from the camera settings menu and you should be fine.
THANK YOU

Thanks Neitmrh15, that did the trick.
Fix works great. Thanks for the help.
This worked for me too! I was worried when I turned on the camera and saw all those bars. But now I can see what I'm snapping!

Nexus 4 Autofocus Problem

Hi guys,
I am hacing a problem with the autofocus on the default camera app on the nexus 4.
Before when I clicked a picture at the last moment it would make sure the camera is in focus before snapping a picture.
But now it just focus hunts with the focus shifting back and forth and the final result is unacceptable.
I want it to go back to the way it was before.
If I use another camera app like say the ever note camera it works perfectly fine. I'm only having a problem with the default camera.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks a lot guys
Its the way it is.

I understand your problem, but IMO it is not really a problem. Just tap on the object you want to focus and then tap on the circle to take the picture.
Just tapping on the Circle sometimes keeps the focus and sometimes not. its better if you tap and hold for a while before you release your finger.

Hey, thanks for the reply.
I just installed a custom camera app instead and its working like a charm. Its called QuickSnap.
The funny thing is that the default camera used to work perfectly fine before the 4.2 update.
Great!

Thats good, I myself noticed this thing on the stock camera app. but then again just few more taps fixed this but yes I tried Snap Camera
there no such issues with that, even on Instagram camera.
But I don't know why i feel that stock camera app is the best.
Cheers!
I'm having this big problem too.
Any of you guys notice that sometimes when using the flash it'll show the picture as overly bright right after you take it? but once you view it in the gallery it looks normal

Motion Pictures on OnePlus 5

Hey,
Does anyone know if it is possible to do with the default camera app or any other camera APK?
It's those pictures that also record a few seconds of each picture. I need do some of that stuff at work and can't find anything.
Like the "Cinemagraph" thing. Or that Motion Picture on Pixel 2
Thanks for help anyway!

Use the mod-ed Google Camera app. It has the motion foto option and it come activated in the app by default after you install it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/themes/google-camera-hdr-t3655215

Read the post man! It's a simple .apk No need for custom recovery, root. Download the .apk and install it like any other .apk

Video problem (focus hunts)

Does anyone else have a problem with video recording? No matter which app I use the camera hunts for focus occasionally resulting in the frame zooming in and out, or out and in, slightly. I can't manage to get more than 3/5 seconds of rock solid framing?
I have the same issue (LineageOS 14.1) and came here to ask which app I should use to avoid this problem!
This video shows the refocusing really well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCcEp3oD4aY

Do you use the stock ROM or a custom ROM like I do?
Maybe ZTE will repair your phone?

It looks like your camera is refocussing a lot more frequently than mine!
I'm running the Stock ROM and camera app at the moment. I don't think it's a hardware problem as the camera does not refocuss when taking a still photo.
I can't have ZTE look at it as there's no service center in the UK (and I bought it from Gearbest).

You are right! :good: I changed the 'touch focus duration' in the LOS camera app from '0s' to 'infinite' and now the focus does only change if I click elsewhere!
There should a similar setting in the stock camera app!

I can't find such a setting in the stock camera app!
But I did find it in the Open Camera app!

Can you upload a screenshot of the video settings?
You mean 'Open Camera' (Camera App) - https://f-droid.org/app/net.sourceforge.opencamera? Which setting you changed? I had no refocussing without changing any setting.

Using Open Camera has fixed the problem for me!
The stock camera app only seems to have fixed focus settings for the stills camera!

To answer myself: The small icons in the menu represent the different focus modes! :good:

Yes it took a while to find the settings! The continuous autofocus setting ("c") causes my Mini to hunt for focus every 2/3 seconds. All the other settings work as expected with no hunting.
Doh! I've just found that you can lock focus and exposure using the Stock camera app! You just need to long press on the target circle after you have selected the object you want to focus on.
https://youtu.be/Un0FJCYKTcM?t=216
Once locked you can choose another object to focus another and it will lock focus on that without having to long press again.
