I've noticed two of the "Camera Family" functions that I tried out (Slow mo, and Clone) does not work
at all. Panorama works fine, and is very fast. I don't use the other camera functions and do not know if they are working properly.
I guess the camera have some EIS in the normal Google stock Camera app. When I saw the functions you have stabilization option for 1080p (but not for 4k). I can't seem to find it under Nubias Camera setting unless its an automatic function of theirs.
Both ROMs (Mokee/Resurrection) are great.

So I'm running Camera Zoom FX on a stock, debloated, rooted rom. It takes pics fine. However when I try to switch to video mode, it says "video switch not supported on this device"
Is there a fix for this? If not, whats another good camera app tha does actually support video. Thanks!
Camera FX has not been updated since August 19 , 2015 and it's not capable of handling the current api's unless they update the application. I bought the premium version and stopped using it because of this and other camera issues.
Hey, somehow I can't use Video function in camera, WhatsApp or other cameras like Google Camera, but slowmo video does work and in Snapchat videos also works. Any idea?
In camera app the option button and so on are greyed out when I'm in video mode. In WhatsApp i.e. I get the error that it can't connect to the cam.
I'm on grossoshop's 20s.

Clear cache from recovery. Then go to app manager and clear data of Camera app.
Did this problem happen suddenly or right from the start when u were using grossoshop's rom. It maybe the rom-related issue.
Didnt help, some camera apps work and some not, really strange. I don't know since when I have this bug as I'm not using the video mode in camera app usually
Now I acknowledged that the microphone also is blocked. Something is blocking video and audio recording. I tried removing all permissions from apps of microphone and just kept Recorder permission on - still says "used by another app". But just saying something works like Ok Google (with permission for sure). Online recording isn't working.
I used the vpn trick to update to android pie and have magisk installed. Everything works fine, 4g wifi etc. However, I noticed in the stock camera app video recording does not work. I can take pictures both on front and rear cam. When I enabled hyperlapse or slowmo, it can record video but never when those features are not enabled. I tried installing Open Camera from playstore (an opensource camera software) and tried to record video with that app but still nothing. It says "Failed to record video". I recently also enabled camera2api and installed gcam and it can take pictures but not record video. Weird thing is that I tried capturing video on Facebook Messenger and it worked. Video recording works on messenger but not on camera apps?? Did anyone experience this or is it just me?
Try to record video without audio in Open camera. If it works, download Cinema FV camera app and try different audio codec. It happened to me on Oreo, I couldn't find the reason. Once the full ROM has been released by Xiaomi, I reflashed it and video started to work in all apps again. Maybe something went wrong during OTA update, hard to tell. All I know is that it messed up with audio codecs and I had to use another as the default one to be able to record video with sound.

Hmm you're right the problem is with the audio. I tried open camera and disabled audio and it worked. I also followed your suggestion and installed cinema fv camera app and tried all the different codecs but it still doesn't work. It works though if I disable audio completely. Maybe I'll just wait for the new security patch to come.
I just found my old post, this codec in Cinema FV worked for me when I had the recording issue - "AAC-ELD".
?I tried gcams slo mo but none of them are working. I also tried pixelmaster cam, the slow motion feature is not working. Im on official oreo rom. If someone finds a way for slow mo cam, please tell
Use Footej camera. Don't use back cam as it is not working for some reason. Use the front one. It records on 120fps on 480p.
I am trying to figure out if there is a way to use the 4k video recording mode with other apps like for example Open Camera.
I like this app because it has some nice features like manual focusing or locking the focus, changing some other things.
The app does have the option to enable 4k by enabling
"Force 4k UHD video(only works on some devices)" - Enable 3840x2160 resolution for video recording on back camera - this options is a hack that may allow 4K devices on 4K cameras that don't expose the option to 3rd party camera apps. This isn't guaranteed to work, please test before working

But sadly when I press record I get a message
Sorry, 4k UHD not supported on your device

Hopefully theres a workaround to use the 4K with 3rd party apps.
If anyone knows how, please let us all know.
So far I learned that many manufactures make their phones so if you use the stock app you get the best quality and everything.
But if you use third party apps, you get basic features and quality is always worse.
I was wondering if maybe rooting the phone would unlock the full capability of the camera to be used with third party apps.
So I rooted the phone finally with locked bootloader.
Sadly, still Open Camera is unable to use 4K UHD video recording.
I think for this to work you need Camera2 Api which Xperia Z2 does not have.
But there's another thing.
Cyberian camera mod 8.0 for Xperia Z2.
I installed it after rooting the phone and now I can open regular camera app and I have 4K option, and I don't even have to choose the 4K app.
Awesome.
Also, Cyberian comes with few other focusing features, maybe I can use those with 4K recordings because normal focus on 4K app is awful, constantly looks to refocus itself.
Sadly Cyberian can't lock focus but it does have single and multi auto focus, face detection, object tracking and infinity.
Will report back how those work now.
