HDR , slow motion and other option disappeared from MotoCam on stock 7.0 - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi everyone , today while using camera i noticed hdr option is missing along with slow motion and iso & shutter speed option from the pro mode in Moto camera . Even front camera is not opening. However in 3rd party camera apps front camera open but hdr is still missing. I am using modified stock 7.0 with camera2api enabled , defcomg chromatix mod and 32 bit gcam by savitar. How to fix moto cam as i use it regularly ? Thanks all in advance

This is happen bcuz of enable cam2api idk why maybe the Moto cam app dosen't compatible with camera 2 so if you want these options back you have to disable cam2api. Same of you I tried so many times to find out what happened with camera and discover that enable cam2api make this bug happened.

The stock camera app relies on the phone's default camera api. Enabling camera2 api breaks it.

I tried disabling cam2api by changing value to 0 in build.prop app but it didnot work . I removed persist code but cam2api is still enabled . Donot know why moto software sucks brain that much.

There is a quirk on stock nougat where permissions get messed up after editing a system file. Install root browser, navigate to system, find the build.prop file and in properties set the permission to -rw-r--r-- (644) like in the attached screenshot. Then reboot.

Theres a modded Motocam in the g5+ camera dev group. Also, Motocam with [email protected] enabled works flawlessly on stock oreo.

[GUIDE] Enable EIS on videos

Hello,
I found that by adding the following lines below in build.prop, the EIS becomes functional in recording videos using the apk mod of the Nexus 5 camera.
Add the following lines;
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
persist.camera.eis.enable=1
persist.camera.is_mode=4
Unfortunately it only works in this camera application and autofocus does not work.
Download the apk on original thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/themes-apps/mod-google-camera-t3279714
It might work better on other roms and Nougat, I'm currently at smalleui 13.1 and the best camera app I've found so far was the Moto Z camera with the professional mode (sadly no EIS but it have autofocus working on video)
Edit: Works too on Footej Camera!
Edit²: I installed for the first time a nougat rom (RR) and EIS works in video on all app
Edit³: I'm just an Network engineer, i don't have any programming skills, don't ask for new features
Can you also post the link for the Moto Z camera that you use?

Sorry, i forgot to tell you that you must change on build.prop "ro.product.device"
(moto g4)
ro.product.device=athene
(moto z)
ro.product.device=griffin
On smalleui 13.1 all settings of professional mode works, on nougat (RR) only a few

(probably off topic sorry)
But say, can you enable 1080p 60fps recording with build prop modified and also can you increase the shutter time to some 30 sec. So we can photograph the night starry sky?
Isk anythi g about build. Prop never touched it.. Just wonder about the possibilities
Thanks for the eis.. Its awesome :laugh:

Yes, EIS only works if you enable camera api2 and EIS line on build prop.
Make sure to change to read-only build.prop or else bootloop.

For me, stock camera doesn't work consistently anymore even with HDR off. It seems to work in normal lighting situation but not in low light situation where I get the error explained in initial post (very strange).
Same here.
HDR mode is not working on Mi Camera app , says "Camera error - can't connect to camera" everything else works.

Asus Camera Zenfone 4 to Zenfone 3. How do this?

Hi guys,
I have a Zenfone 3 and a Zenfone 4. I need port apk Asus Camera version 4.0.21.2_171207M to my Zenfone 3 and have all features Zenfone 4 camera.
You know how I do this?
See images.
İf you have root, just delete the asuscamera apk from systemprivapp using doot explorer. Then rename the asus camera 4.00 apk to AsusCamera.apk paste it on system/priv-app/asuscamera/ then set permissions to rw-r-r- then reboot.

I tried it and it works fine. It is missing a few camera modes that the original camera has but otherwise it works perfectly. I'm on the latest .83 release of Nougat and to install it I deleted the existing .apk along with the corresponding oat directory then copied the apk to the /system/priv-app/AsusCamera folder. After rebooting to TWRP and deleting caches it was working perfectly. It changes the interface for the better but reduces the functionality, so I went back to the original camera app.

Ayy Eu Sou Android, I like your videos BTW. Do you have the ported APK???
It worked on zenfone 3 Deluxe. Some modes are gone, but the manual (pro) mode is working without problems (Manual focus ok, shutter speed ok, exposure value ok, white balance with less steps, but working, manual optimization is gone), the recording modes are working as well (1080p 60fps and 4k working), and the interface is perfect even with the UI scale at 720dp (in the old version , the parameters in manual mode disappear above 600dp). Optical stabilization and laser focus are also working perfectly for photos and videos.
I'm in version 4.0.26.2_171027M-1540026013 downloaded by APKMirror
