Gcam for Nokia 4.2 - Nokia 4.2 Questions & Answers

Anyone have make Gcam mod for Nokia 4.2? I've try installed,..it is can but always crash and error..maybe some dev cam made port to Nokia 4.2?

Maybe you can try to use the Nokia 6.1plus version. I use this version, everything working normally, but night sight still can't be used. So you can install the version without night sight.

ROMs with almost no bugs

Is there any non OOS based ROM with a perfectly working fingerprint scanner and primary camera. Something that's really stable?
Everything you find in this forum is perfectly stable, maybe with the exception of MIUI.
Oneplus limited custom ROMs by not releasing sources that would make slow motion video, HDR and the "HQ" mode work. This means these are broken on all non OOS based ROMs.
The fingerprint scanner will also get a bit slower, but it's still gonna beat an iPhone.

Would you recommend the jump from oxygen OS at the expense of, what you state to be, worse low light performance, removal of features like slow motion videos and HDR, and the slowing of the fingerprint sensor... I suppose it depends if you use the camera then and enjoy the speed of your phone unlock?

This is totally wrong. MIUI Xs is the only non OOS rom where the camera works perfectly including auto-HDR, Slow Motion and HQ as it is based on H2Os. I am using this build and it even has ota support for miui weekly. Don't flash any other builds like wu or ruy09 etc. Use this build : https://mega.nz/#!H5xEEARQ!jIFx7bad4wBN3s1xXmEd6-8EQGQETMD9_EWsjYWMWSM

Aside from the fact that MIUI doesn't boot on my device, it should be pretty stable. I seriously couldn't care less about the camera as long as it screws my phone up.
I like MIUI. Believe me, I tried. I downloaded every single version I could find, flashed all of them, none of them booted. Flashed fine, but then black screen, white notification LED, computer recognized the phone as Qualcomm debug mode. Yeah...
Works for some, not for me. And I'm not alone with this.

Try this Version. Believe me .... DO a clean flash --> Wipe everything including internal memory and flash from adb sideload.
Make sure your file system is F2FS and not EXT4. Update to latest nougat OOS and then flash as said above !!
If u want I can show my miui by uploading a video to youtube !!

Since we use 7.1.1 blobs from openbeta3 on this unofficial op3t optimized lineage build most camera issue are gone - OnePlusCamera from openbeta3 is included additionally.
Fingerprint sensor was never an issue on these builds.

How did you manage to fix the fingerprint sensor issue? Every other LOS ROM has this issue.....:good:

Sounds strange. Is HDR working? Because I couldn't get it to work even on OOS based ROMs.

Honestly: I don't know. To my own surprise it was just working. The only remaining issue: if you want to add a fp, you need to wait for some seconds before starting to register new fp; otherwise the fps is working as home button.

HDR on back cam is working - no HDR on front cam. What's still missing is raw.
I'm no photographer and I lack a good judgment for stills. I suggest you take a nandroid and check yourself if the rom (especially the cam) matches your demands.

I tried, but just like on OOS based ROMs, I cannot tell the difference between HDR being on or off. That's despite me giving it a challenging lighting situation.
With my Nexus 5, HDR photos had no EXIF info. At least no things such as ISO, exposure time. With the OP3T, I have full EXIF, which shouldn't be possible, because the whole point of HDR is that I don't have a single ISO value and a single exposure time value.
Due to the EXIF situation and the fact that I cannot tell a difference between pictures with HDR on and off, I concluded that it is not working. Am I the only one with this problem?
Can someone upload pictures taken back to back, where one was taken with HDR on and the other with HDR off?

There's a work around for this. Use on screen nav bar. And then register all your fingerprints. Turn it off afterwards if you don't want.

I think waiting some seconds is the better (aka faster) workaround: changing to onscreen nav bar and reverting back takes about 10ms. Waiting for 5 s takes 5 s... Just a matter of peesonal taste. Work around the workaround...

Camera flash: not working as I would expect

Hallo everyone.
Many times, when I shoot a picture in internal, I would expect that camera flash works (in auto mode).
Instead it doesn't and pictures are quite dark; If I force camera flash on I can see the difference and it's a lot better.
Does anyone agree with me? Is there a way to tell the phone that I want the flash working even with more light?
I am not satisfied with that and it's the first time I notice such a thing in my phone history!
Thank you!

12mpx Gcam mode?

Hi! So I decided to unlock my bootloader, root my Xiaomi mi A2, enable camera2Api and install Gcam (tried multiple versions of Gcams, still trying to figure out which one is the best for my phone) but each one shows a 12mpx resolution on the back and 5 on the front. I installed a module for Portrait mode and that option works fine now. But is the resolution issue commun for Gcams? (12 mpx on the back and 5 on the front) And also, each time I tried to record in 4k, all the versions of gcam stop running. I did not manage to find a specific module for that, is there anything I can do to fix that?
Thanks in advance! :good:
I had same problem as You, so I decided to return everything to stock version.
Simply, it's a problem with all version fo Gcam.

Nokia Camera for Realme 2 pro with dual mode working

Nokia Camera for Realme 2 pro with dual mode working that is both front and back camera works simultaneously like in Nokia 8 sirocco.

Is this supposed to work with devices having the same chipset?

Question MiUi13 - 5x Camera Stability Problem

Has anyone noticed horrible stabilization for the 5x sensor with the new camera app that comes with the 13 update? Used to be able to turn the digital stabilization on or off (when on it caused some weird jitter, but at least the footage was usable and stable). Now, there is no option and the video shot through it is always extremely unstable even when sitting down holding the phone with both hands while remaining as still as possible to the point of beeing useless. Specially at 15x zoom (sample footage included). Anyone else got this issue?
Also noticed that they added an option for HDR10+ shooting and automatic low light framerate adjustment that is not switchable. Anyone know why?
EDIT - Here is the sample footage:
for some reason I got multiple errors uploading video attachments to this forum...
Firstly, I have non of the issues you have mentioned above. I am on MIUI13 SKAMIXM and the app works flawlessly. The only issue I have is video recording gives me only up to x6
Regarding hdr10+ you can turn it on only on 4k and 8k. Not below that.
Okay now I understand, every zoom I start with gives me multiple zoom options. If I start with X5 I can go up to x6.
Either way, works flawlessly

Ok. You mind uploading a sample video in a reply please? Btw if you switch to 1080p 30fps you get the option to go from .5 all the way to 15x in one slider. If you don't mind try shooting from 1x to 15x.
Edit- I'm on the miui 13 SKAEUXM

A quick sample as requested

You can try the app I've extracted in my other post, could help you.

Thank you very much. I've installed your camera app and unfortunately the problem persists... the 5x video footage is basically unsusable. I'm afraid that my optical stabilization for this lens is broken and I'll need to return the phone for service, fortunately it's still covered by warranty... This is a huge bummer since they make you format everything on the phone for security reasons.

Hi Mate,
i'd suggest before sending it off for warranty to install GCAM and try it out one more time.
is your ROM official? or is it the BETA version?
Also, I've learned that controlling camera in general is not limited to camera app, also the software of the device control's most of it and the app is just triggering the software to activate and do the algorithm of image processing. it could not be a hardware. (while I agree with you that most likely it is). but i'd try every possible solution before losing device for a few weeks or months if you are unlucky.
Also, note that seems like EU version of MIUI13 rom seems buggy, a few issues have been mentioned here and there that are not in the global version SKAMIXM.
I use miui13 EU ROM and have no issues at all.

Yes I use the official update as provided with the phone updater. I also have a gcam installed and the problem persists there too (sample provided in this reply). I think I've done all the testing required to conclude that there is actually a problem with the stabilization. I'll have to service it unfortunately . Maybe ask for a battery change since it dropped to about 4500mpa over the last few months with all the fast charging and the extremely fast discharging (cough cough). Thank you for your time, I'm really grateful for the tips.

I think I have this here too (I have the SKAEUXM version). Up to 9.5 it doesn't shake, after that it shakes a lot.
