Switch front and rear cameras - LG V20 Questions & Answers

My cameras are switched for me, so that manual mode only works on the front camera and the selfie settings are on the main camera.
Any way to switch them back? I tried changing a few things in the camera_config.xml file (both the one in the "etc" folder and the one in the "etc/camera" folder but only ended up having to paste the original code back.
Anyone know how to do this?
Rooted LG V20 H910 w/ NSS ROM v5.5

Same issue
I'm experiencing the same issue... Furthermore, if I am on the 'selfie' camera (which the phone thinks is the rear camera) there is a button to switch to the telephoto (non-wide) camera - if clicked the camera is reported as not found, the camera app crashes, attempting to restart it immediately crashes it again. To fix this issue the app data / cache must be cleared to get back into the camera app.
The 'pretty face' features are offered on the back camera and the zoom is completely not functional.

Out of interest, did you guys root your devices?
I had the same issue when I downgraded to the earliest release KDS for my H990. Once I rooted and used KDZwriter to upgrade back to a recent KDZ, all these camera issues were fixed.
It seems it's more an issue of the earliest KDZ vs anything else.

Rooted, yes. Running NSS ROM. I ended up going back to stock rooted and the camera is back to normal.

Glad to hear it's working now - it could be that that ROM is based on an earlier KDZ then.

I have the same issue, and it is really annoying. It showed up after using LGUP to flash to 12a before the root process. I am now rooted and have the restock 1.3 kernel and stock rom but issue still persists. Any idea how to fix this?

Since I upgraded to KK v20d (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52403644) the camera app opens only in landscape mode and also only makes pictures in this mode....I tried some cam apps from the Google play store and they seem to work correctly!?
Does anybody have an idea what's going on here? And how to solve it?
Thanks in advance!

Fixed it.
I got in a bootloop trying to flash another kernel. Via download mode i flashed back to stock with a kdz file (D80220D_00.kdz)
Then everything was ok except i didn't have a custom rec (Philz) and root anymore so i used ioroot25 to root the phone and i used Autorec to flash back Philz recovery.
My kernel now is the stock i pressume: perf-g64350eb#1 (kernel version 3.4.0)
Knock code works and also the camera is fixed! :good::laugh:

Missing 'fingerprint' service

Hi, I got a problem with fingerprint sensor since buying my phone (it was bought as used). Seller did a hard reset before selling phone claiming that fingerprint sensor was fully working. I was trying to add my fingerprint. Sometimes it worked, sometimes I saw error saying that my fingerprint sensor is not working and I should reboot my phone to fix that - of course it didn't help. Hardware test (*#06*#) sometimes showed proper version of the sensor, sometimes 0.0.0.0.
So I tested few custom roms, but it didn't fixed my problem. It actually made it worse. Before testing custom roms I was able to find 'fingerprint' app/service in all apps. I couldn't find it on custom roms so I came back to newest stock, installed all updates and updated all apps and still I can't find this app/service/whatever it is.
Is there any way to get this back or something?
If you used aosp based custom roms then they wouldn't have had the fingerprint service.
What rom should I get to make this work?

Is 5.0 G900FXXU1BOE5 stock? I got this one currently but I still can't find 'fingerprint' in all apps.

Sounds like it, try doing a full reflash.
Sent from my Tw5ted SM-G900A using Tapatalk
Full reflash is wiping data in recovery then flashing ROM with odin? I did it and still nothing.
EDIT: Ok I got it now in all apps. However hwtest says fingerprint's version is 0.0.0.0 and I can't add my fingerprint in settings. Any advice?

Anyone seen a Stock deodexed TWRP flashable OF1

Looking for a TWRP flashable Stock OF1 5.0 rom for 900V?
Odin isn't available to me working on the road without a laptop for a fee weeks.
Currently running Teamsek CM13.0 6.0 I like it but bluetooth calls and Camera both still have some big bugs I need to revert back. Luckily I did make back-ups using TWRP but those sometimes fail and would like to try with maybe a stock version that's been odexed or debloated?

Switch to Jasmine 6.1, it's solid.

From what I seen @donc113 I would still need to Odin the modem?
Or am i wrong?
This Teamasek CM13 im currently running now is so so close to being a daily driver. Just a couple things are killing the vibe 1 being camera is temperamental. 2 bluetooth instability
Other than that it absolutely rocks!

@donc113 you on developer edition also after unlock?
And are you running the Lean Kernel?
Installed lean kernel with Jasmine as suggested on intial flash working like a charm definitely better than stock 5.0 with features recorder built in, with SU and Hotspot work around, no more need for Foxfi I'm digging it!
Thanks for the suggestion Donc was hesitant of Jasmine on my Note 3 because of the troubles it was to get on my Note 2 when multisystem needed to be used etc.
So yeah any 900v user using stock with TWRP definitely flash jasmine w/lean kernel is working solid!
Still looking forward to new release of CM 13 just cause its so pretty! hope development continues, amazing to see the activity for Roms on the HLTE but not HLTEVZW would love to see more for us now that flashing is back ?

I'm also on the trader418 CM13 6.0 and I haven't had any issues with the camera at all...none that I've noticed yet. I've also used different cameras and all seem fine to me taking pictures and recording video....Google Camera, stock Cyanogenmod camera, Manual Camera, Camera FV-5, and Open Camera. The only time I've noticed any issues is when recording in 4k..it's very stuttery and a waste of time to even attempt a recording in 4k. Just curious, what issues do you have with the camera and which camera app(s) specifically?

Using stock camera app. Was very slugish when it did work. Say I'd take a picture in messenger or any other app than try to goto the camera app from the app drawer I was getting force closes and popups saying camera is currently in use or unavailable. Then eventually get the camera has crashed would you like to wait,report or close. I'd need to do a device restart to use camera.
Maybe it was just me that experienced it. I should have maybe tried another clean install. But I also had Bluetooth troubles devices wouldn't connect twice. I had to unpair and repair whenever I was using bluetooth headset or vehicle. And mentally and I was ready to revert back or try something else. But you saying this makes me want to give it another go. But I'll wait after spending all afternoon setting Jasmine up to my likes.

Yes, unlocked (developer). I am using idle kernel.. Which is an offshoot of lean kernel (3.4.111) for me, it gets me a little better battery life, maybe 15 to 20 minutes extra before I need to charge.

Just rooted S8.. Selective Focus in Camera not working anymore

Hi guys,
Just rooted my S8 and installed TWRP, using STOCK Samsung ROM, AQH3. I noticed in the Camera that "Selective Focus" is not working anymore. I didn't change anything else, just rooted the device and installed Notorious Kernel, before doing this the Selective Focus was working OK. So does anyone know what happened? Any help would be highly appreciated, I really like this shooting mode. Thank you!
EDIT: To clarify: before this I got sometimes the error, but mostly of the time it worked well. Now after rooting the phone and installing TWRP it doesn't work at all in any conditions, even with different subjects.. I've heard someone reporting this issue in another thread, but I can't remember at all
Root these days is nothing but problems.
Well ok.. But I really can't figure out how root could broke a single, specific, functionality of the Camera

Flash stock firmware through Odin and then check again if this solve the issue.
Also which method of root? Magisk or SuperSu?
I used Magisk. Anyway if I'll flash stock firmware through Odin I'll lose TWRP and root and everything else right?

Seems like kernel related issue
Mmmh so you suggest to try changing kernel and/or flashing the stock one to see if the issue persists?

Need help with VS995 dirtysanta rooted.

Installed clean 13A and done rooting my vs995 with dirtysanta. Now, is there any advice to get a more stable rooted device ? Flashing Kernels...etc ?
If any kernal was flashed, would it be replaced with stock kernal after flashing a stock KDZ file ? "Does the official KDZ file have a kernal that will replace customs flashed kernals ?"
Note: My vs995 still vibrates Everytime it boots up and it lags sometimes due to CPU high usage especially with stock camera app and Firefox. Also, Official YouTube app plays only sound shows no video. LG green screen of death has been encountered many times.

Dose it lag when the lg camera app switch to portrait mode? It should be very fast when switching back and forth...
Did you remove the thing using rcdt?
I am using wetarom and i can say is very fast and battery efficient. Everything load almost instantly using the blue_active governor

No. Didn't use RCDT remover yet. I will remove the LG root checker with RCDT and report back.

Tried to remove the RCDT and failed. Everytime I try to patch the image and flash it again and then rebooted to the app, it shows RCTD "Currently Running"
Only Triton was successfully removed. CCMD left unchecked due to possibility of bootloop.
Try using a stock rom from a different model by flashing with lgup mod version
