Out of focus portrait images from mi a1 - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hi everyone i want to ask a possible solution for Mi A1's blurry portrait images i mean the depth effect is good but the main object is not focused properly and it doesn't look good. As this phone was launched it was said that it has the best camera in this price range and frankly it was right but after a few updates i.e oreo update the camera is jus the worse...
So i surfed the internet to find whether i am the only one facing this issue or anyone else is also facing the same and i was surprised that many did face this issue..
So please can anyone help me out with that

Install gcam mod, there are a few guides in this forum. You can try and see, just remember to backup your phone

Done that but still i like the depth effect of mi a1' s stock camera is there any fix?

Maybe you're not shooting the object far enough, the stock camera used the telephoto lens, which means you have to get further away from the object (yes it can be really annoying). If that's not the case, it's probably a hardware issue (camera replacement), which is not really expensive.

blurry front camera

Hello guys , i just bought a s5 but i notice that the front camera looks blurry. I tiried turning off beauty face and play with the options but it doesn't seem to correct it. I don't know if this is a software problem or what
We have no way of knowing either because you didn't even provide a sample photo or detailed information about your settings or how you use the camera.
Without those crucial details, all we can do is make random guesses. Perhaps you aren't holding the camera steady. Or have a fingerprint over the camera aperture. Or innumerable other causes. You need to provide a lot more information if you hope to narrow down the cause.

Front camera has only 2Mpx
| Tapatalk | Samsung Galaxy S5 | G900F |
so sorry to resurrect this thread.. but with snapdragon camera app (which now almost all roms are using [mostly without mentioning]), the front camera image is so good. BUT when you use apps like whatsapp or imo and try to use it internally (via the app itself), the pallid blurry and ridiculous image reappears.... any solution to that?
I take the photo with the stock Samsung app, and then share it via WhatsApp or whatever I'm using
WhatsApp is terrible for camera/video, won't focus half the time, most other camera apps are a lot lower quality than the stock Samsung one, which is why a lot of people stick with TW ROMs

Haha no it's not my shaky hands, I'm not drunk and don't have parkinson's disease, it always makes the pictures blurred
My Zuk's camera does take awful photos, I hope it's just a software issue
I have to admit that the Camera has greatly improved, the pictures are not fvcked up anymore!
They are adding 1-2 system updates every day, I think they updated the camera software.
Pictures aren't perfect, I hope they will continue with updates
The device is EXCELLENT overall
Will there be support for Camera API 2? Or is it a hardware thing and the Z1 will never support it?
Hey guys. Just wanted to ask is the blurry camera still there. I changed to custom ROMs in thinking it might get fixed, but I'm still getting blurryimages from the back camera. Please advice.
hi guys, im having the same problem here, i change the original rom to the oficial CM13 and the camera start with this problem, it is like the image stabilizer will not work at all.
anyone can fix this issue???
thanks
Hi had the same issue, If I put the phone horizontally the camera just started to shaking a lot and going crazy.
I think It's an hardware problem of the OIS stabilizzator. I changed my phone with a new one (thanks to the seller on Amazon) and now no problem at all.
My ZUK Z1's front cam developed spots& marks like small lines.
I thougt it was a software problem and did all i could, Soft/Full Reboot, clearing cache in settings, Recovery aand....Fully powering down the device and turning it on....No matter what i couldn't solve it....
So when i googled it, I came to a clarity that its a hardware issue....
Here r the screenshots/pics shot by my Front cam on my ZUK Z1....nd the search results I found on gogle
Please advice...XDA!

Are the pictures blurry even when you make sure the lens have focused properly? The camera on mine isn't the best in terms of the picture quality it churns out, but the photos aren't blurry when I take time to focus them properly.
is this a hardware problem or software?

I was having similar issues with my front camera in default os (cm 12], then same issue persisted with custom roms ( nuclea os 14.1 ). Today I installed "open camera" app and suddenly the crashing problem ended and now I am able to use front camera in all apps like default camera app and watsapp etc. Hope this helps...
Camera of ZUK Z1 isn't that great as it should be.
But it's fine tho, that's what you will get in this price.

See my front camera's dead for an year now. I visited the service center but didn't get it repaired...they say it's my lens fluid that broke on a single drop of my phone on the floor. That's how defective cameras on ZUK Z1 are...

Camera2 bugs

Hi,
I'm the developer of Open Camera ( http://opencamera.org.uk/ / https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-camera-t2850557/ ) and was wondering what people's experiences were on the OnePlus 3T with third party camera apps that use Camera2 API?
I've tested a few different third party cameras on my OnePlus 3T, with Camera2 enabled as follows:
Open Camera: enable Settings/"Use Camera2 API".
A Better Camera: enable Settings/General settings/More/"Use Camera2 interface".
Snap Camera HDR (Trial): enable Settings/Other/"Use Camera2 API".
Camera FV-5: this uses Camera2 by default.
AZ Camera: this uses Camera2 by default.
Footej: this uses Camera2 by default.
Lightroom (which has a built-in camera using Camera2)
Mostly things seem good, but there are some issues on my device (these occurred on both Oxygen 4.0.2 and 4.0.3):
* Most seriously, I've seen problems to do with using manual shutter speed. This usually shows in the form of preview corruption (it shows a split-screen, or starts scrolling), but sometimes there's a camera error, in some cases the entire phone freezes for several seconds (with even the home button not responding). In rare cases the phone becomes sluggish until a reboot is forced. It seems to happen with bright scenes (e.g., outdoors in daytime, or pointing close to a bright light - say shutter speed 1/100s or less). There are a few ways to reproduce this:
1. Switch to manual shutter speed, then back to auto. Then point to a bright scene, after a few moments the problem usually happens.
2. Point at bright scene and switch to manual shutter speed, and wait a few moments.
3. Switch to manual shutter speed, and keep varying the shutter speed (even if not pointing to bright scene).
I've reproduced this with: Open Camera, A Better Camera, Snap Camera HDR, Camera FV-5, AZ Camera, Footej, Lightroom.
Unfortunately this doesn't just make manual mode unreliable, but also affects implementation of things like HDR, expo bracketing.
* The ISO value (and possibly shutter speed?) reported by the Camera driver is incorrect in dark scenes. This can be seen by the on-screen values in Open Camera, A Better Camera (see Settings/Viewfinder settings/More/ISO value), Snap Camera HDR, Camera FV-5, AZ Camera, Footej. In Open Camera, this value is CaptureResult.SENSOR_SENSITIVITY obtained from the CaptureRequest request received by onCaptureCompleted.
It can also be seen by looking at the reported ISO in the image's Exif data.
The maximum reported values are ISO 799 and shutter speed 1/16.7s. Why do I suspect this to be incorrect? Firstly because taking a photo of the same scene with the stock camera will show much higher ISO in the Exif (even though the photo looks similar), secondly because switching to manual ISO value of ~800 (either in the stock or a third party camera) results in a much darker photos.
Note, this bug is more serious than it might sound, as it messes up things like using HDR for darker scenes.
* Possibly related to this is that setting a manual ISO of above 800 seems to have no effect - photos are still taken as if they had ISO 800. This can be reproduced with Open Camera, A Better Camera, Snap Camera HDR.
Also, not a camera2 issue, but still relevant to the OnePlus 3T, is double-power-button to open camera: if the device is unlocked, it launches the default camera app, but if the device is locked, it only seems to open the stock OnePlus camera app. Open Camera sets an intent filter for both android.media.action.STILL_IMAGE_CAMERA and android.media.action.STILL_IMAGE_CAMERA_SECURE . This works okay on my Nexus 6. On my OnePlus, the app info for the stock camera app says "no defaults set", so there's nothing to clear.
Supposedly the preferred way to report bugs is https://forums.oneplus.net/feedback/ , but I can't create a new thread until I've posted 5 replies (ah yes, anti-spam measures that encourage users to spam) so I'll have to post here for now. I thought it'd be interesting to know if others have experienced or can reproduce these - or if you're experiencing different issues altogether? (Sometimes even on a single model, there can be frustrating camera bugs that only show on some devices for whatever reason.)
I like to play with manual mode, but just a casual shooter so haven't gone to details, but will give this try. I know there are some inaccuracy, but it's affirming coming from a pro. You can just comment 5 times and post in the oneplus forum. I will also test and post the feedback.
May be fixing these will result in impressive picture quality as hardware is capable just the processing which is average.
Thanks for the finding and posting, at least we know some of the reason now.
I've had problems with the manual shutter speed. Happens when reducing it. Picture starts scrolling then phone freezes up

hey man first of all thank you very much for developing that app, its awwwwsssome and btw oneplus implemented camera2api in op3t poorly so that could be the reason ( if they were able to implement api2 correctly then there wouldve been 240 fps slow mo for op3t)
I was able to reproduce every issue you've said on my 3T - OOS 4.0.3 - mainly incorrect EXIF data when using camera app <> stock.
Open Camera works okay for me (as it crashes the least), but when trying CFV-5 or Manual Camera then I was also able to reproduce the freezing/hanging/glitched preview screen.
Also a thing I noticed, that my rear camera takes brighter pictures in low light than the back, even tough the shutter is longer on the rear (probably incorrectly reported) - more info here.
I was able to reproduce all of the issues you mentioned on an OOS 4.0.3 based custom ROM, which I guess is kinda the same as stock.
This is a serious issue, you should definitely report this to Oneplus, since all of us seem to be affected by it.
Another thing: Higher ISO and lower shutter speed combo works as intended in the stock camera app. I suspect foul play by Oneplus.
I've experienced the lock screen issue before but not used the camera enough to really notice the other problems yet. I actually have Open Camera installed. Nice work and I love the fact that you open sourced it and didn't plague us with more ads. That is very appreciated!
I really miss the camera app I used on the OnePlus One but its just not compatible (or that's the rumor) with newer models. Maybe Ill flash it.
Definately keep trying on the feedback link. I know the spam-to-post thing is stupid. Have you tried the User Feedback app? Or is that only on the Beta?

For what it's worth after I received my 3t I saw how slow the stock camera was and it's inability to stop motion very well and installed your app and it works quite well. I use your app as my default camera app.

Seriously? You defenetly confused with camera apps.
Stock oos camera is wonderful. For exemple, now I'm using as my daily rom, dedicated and unnoficial laos by nvertigo67 for 3t. And I can say, that it is the best rom by far.
Just a moment ago, I'm installed and tested opencamera, and can say anything good (if comparing it with stock one). So please, just try something else and you will see how is amazing, fast, smooth the stock one. Btw, there you can find snapdragon camera(introduce by @nvertigo67 too), that have same perfomance and quality. I'm just prefer oos cam, becouse ui more comfortable.
@mdwh
Nothing personal. You making a good app (use it on my opo). Just whanted to say, that stock one is superb, with op bloobs. Even in laos build.

And I really want to have back the functions from Open Camera. It's the main camera since years now and I don't wanna miss it. Never.
Well, there's hope.
What should I say... I really tried my best to get their attention, but the administrative audience keeps being quiet. I really thought of getting an OP5, but at all points in summary, they really grew trust issues. Wasn't one point of their slogan, they hear what the users want? I really don't think so. Otherwise, this issue would have been fixed ages ago or at least a reply from someone who really works on fixing issues like that. That's a major bug and nobody cares. Sad.
I'm really fed up with this situation. I like to try lots of custom ROMs but I'm basically stuck with using stock OOS just for the camera. What can we do to make this happen? Phone calls? Lots of emails? I'm willing to make a lot of fuss to pressure these mofos into fixing this POS API thing.
@redsmith: Abandon OnePlus once and forever. I'm already looking for a new OEM. Currently, there are no developer-friendly phones out, so I have to wait a bit. I won't support this company any longer that claims "We hear what customers say!". They don't. They only look forward to get their newest devices sold by hype. They're not as tiny as they make us believe. They're close to OPPO (even in the same building). They could fix this problem if they want but sadly it seems, that they simply don't.

No. Phoenix AEX has the OOS camera (not the port). It's exact. I've even used the new Camera2 for the OP5 on Phoenix. Try it. However, I'm using Sultan's SnapDragon Camera (works on LOS based ROMs and Phoenix since Phoenix auto-switches camera HALs), and it really beats any camera app I've tried in quality ... there are setting to tweak ... quality set to high, raised contrast a step or two up, sharpness a step up, saturation a step down, but ... its my new default.

[Need Help] Camera picture blurry after zoom

hey guys, So I've been struggling with this issue since the beginning, when I take a picture and then go to gallery to see it, it's ok overall but when I zoom it its very blurry and not as sharp as other phones that I compare it with, so when I compare with friend it's a shame as I actually have one of the best camera phones of 2016 (!!).
Anyway do u guys know what should I do?
The focus is good, my hands are not shaking and also I tried different gallery apps thinking maybe its not loading completely but thats not it.
I believe it is the image processing fault. I would like to know any idea to avoid this as well.
Maybe other camera app?
If you guys or anyone else know an app that would make a difference could you tell the name?
I tried some apps even paid ones and no luck

yes.
I find that also, not bootloader unlocked.
strange.

5T features ported??

Hi All,
It seems that the 5T has a low light shooting preference over telephoto and facial unlock.
Although the latter is not something I'd ever use, I was thinking would it be possible for the camera's on the 5 to use the low light functionality of the 5T? I've read that they're similar?
If not, it's not the end of the world, I've took some great pics with my 1+ but if I could improve low light then it'd be a bonus.
I believe the 5T has a different camera sensor.
If that's the case, it won't be portable unless you change the camera altogether.
The primary camera is the same, the difference is on the second camera. Now its nos a zoom len, it will work for low Light shoots because the sensor has a different aperture.
The 5 has de 1.6x len zoom, now on the 5T, all the zoom is digital
Enviado do meu ONEPLUS A5000 através de Tapatalk
Actually I think OP5 is doing the same thing (obviously with different second camera sensor) test yourself: open camera app, cover the main camera and obviously you will see just black, here is the weird thing: change to "zoom" (2x), cover the second camera (supposed zoom lens) you'll still have image then cover the main camera boom no image! So for 2x is just a digital zoom (a good one) from the main camera, and the second camera is just used for portrait mode effect
I think this is only in low light condition. Try this again in good light and it would work as expected
google cam with HDR+ will give you better low light shots
i took a picture of the night sky the other day and it actually turned out a beautiful picture. very surprised how well it judged exposure time.
We need to wait OxygenOS 4.7 to discover how many new features will arrive also in our OnePlus 5.

Telephoto Vs low light I know they're different.. I'm wondering if the software can be forced to work with what we have?

?? Oreo had nothing to do with what I've asked.?
I only need to know if the camera choice!! Low light over zoom can be transferred. In all honesty the second camera never works. Cover it an nothing happens.
In low light the second camera doesn't work, and it's better that way. With an f/2.6 aperture, it just wouldn't allow enough light in to the tiny sensor to be useful. This would be true even with the pixel binning technique the 5T uses for its secondary camera.
It's also entirely possible that there's hardware involved for that feature to work properly too.

Actually I think OP5 is doing the same thing (obviously with different second camera sensor) test yourself: open camera app, cover the main camera and obviously you will see just black, here is the weird thing: change to "zoom" (2x), cover the second camera (supposed zoom lens) you'll still have image then cover the main camera boom no image! So for 2x is just a digital zoom (a good one) from the main camera, and the second camera is just used for portrait mode effect

Unbelievable bull crap from a senior member. This untrue.
Second lens activates in good looking lighting automatically, you covered the lens manually so it thinks it's dark and it will take the picture with main lens.
Best way to test is to test outside, I can visually see, how it's jumping from one lens to another when zooming. Also you can see whether it used the second lens from the photo details.
You don't need to be rude dude... Yes I'm senior member but I'm not a God that know how everything works, I just did that test and see that results, didn't know how this dual camera works. So I researched a bit and found what you said. My bad
Here's a video to understand how this dual camera works
Cheers

Yep that's what I wrote mate.
Telephoto Vs low light I know they're different.. I'm wondering if the software can be forced to work with what we have?

Not likely since you have to have a lower aperture (1.7 or so) a Tele lens aperture is usually higher and allows less light to reach the sensor. With this, it is highly unlikely to have a software update that will allow the 5 to reproduce the 5T's low light photo quality.

?? Oreo had nothing to do with what I've asked.?
I only need to know if the camera choice!! Low light over zoom can be transferred. In all honesty the second camera never works. Cover it an nothing happens.

OxygenOS 4.7 is not Oreo, is the default ROM installed in OnePlus 5T (OnePlus 5 has OxygenOS 4.5)

If you don't remember what you wrote is not my problem.
