Camera & Camera2 API - missing features & bugs

[Razem]

Is this something you can alter in source? I thought it was in precompiled proprietary blobs.

[mikeNG]

It is in proprietary blobs but with a little creativity you can bypass the check: https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_hardware_lineage_compat/+/344852

[Singulus]

Sounds great, looking forward to ne next release now :).

Man, Calyx is slowly winning me over with these bombshells

[hirnsushi]

Just updated to the newest CalyxOS Beta and without any additional configuration got wide-angle support in GCam, just like that

Now let’s see when/if Fairphone manages to enable that officially for stock FPOS

[noodlejetski]

I just wish it wasn’t so laggy. whenever I switch to wide angle in the GCam I use, it feels like it’s got night mode permanently enabled.

[hirnsushi]

I did have some lags in a darker environment, in a well lit room it’s about as responsive as the normal lense for me.

You’re right, seems like some kind of low-light processing gets triggered, but the normal lense doesn’t have the same issue in an almost dark room

Open Camera doesn’t lag with wide-angle in low-light situations either, so this is likely a GCam issue. Hopefully it can be fixed by diving into the configs I’ll have a look.

[cosmic]

And the wide angle camera is now also working in the manually installed stock FP4 camera in Pro mode opened via shortcut on CalyxOS. Just the default Photo mode is still crashing.

In the default CalyxOS camera app, are you able to switch to wide angle and if so, where? I only found the wide angle option in Gcam and stock camera…

[yvmuell]

which GCam port? Maybe just try different once?

[hirnsushi]

@cosmic

Just the default Photo mode is still crashing.

That is an issue introduced with Android 12, @xblax explained it in detail here, including a workaround.
Since this needs to get fixed for stock to move to A12 anyway, it probably makes sense to wait for that to happen.

@cosmic

In the default CalyxOS camera app, are you able to switch to wide angle and if so, where?

Don’t think so, haven’t found an option either

@yvmuell

Maybe just try different once?

Good point
I’m usually on the latest BSG. I’ve just tried stable Greatness, Nikita and Wichaya, same issue, had to enable wide-angle support manually on the first two.

Seems like a general GCam issue, not related to Camera2, we should probably move that discussion somewhere else

[Razem]

That’s great! Could you please install Camera2 API Probe and send me a report? I want to confront support with this, but I would like to have the report as a proof that it can work just fine when it’s enabled.

[hirnsushi]

Sure, here you go

Apparently we should be able to leverage the DOF sensor as well somehow, if I’m reading those logs correctly
It seems to be accessible …

[LibrePhoner]

This is great news here!!!

It is noticeable that at ID 0

@Razem

Stabilization Mode: Optical

is missing. Does this mean that OIS (optical image stabilization) is no longer usable???

For ID 3 it additionally says

@hirnsushi

Physical Camera Ids: [, 0]

@hirnsushi

availableCapability: BACKWARD_COMPATIBLE
availableCapability: LOGICAL_MULTI_CAMERA

so I assume that this could be the TOF sensor.

I would interpret the cameras as follows:
Camera ID 0: Main camera
Camera ID 1: Front camera
Camera ID 2: Super wide angle camera
Camera ID 3: TOF sensor

I have an update from support:

I’m pleasantly surprised to learn that the team working on CalyxOS found a way to enable all camera sensors system-wide. I can’t personally comment on software design decisions, as it’s not my area of work, but I will reach out to our developers right away and ask for a comment.

The resources you shared are strong arguments for why this change needs to be made, and they align with out commitment to fairness and transparency.

I hope this could finally move things forward. Fingers crossed. @hirnsushi, thank you very much for the report.

@LibrePhoner

so I assume that this could be the TOF sensor.

That would be weird. The TOF sensor definitely does not have such a large resolution. No datasheet is available for the imx316, but various sites report resolutions from 240x180 to 640x480. But when it says logical camera, maybe it is somehow postprocessed to stretch to the main camera resolution.

[Singulus]

I’m now also able to use the Wide-angle lens with OpenCamera on CalyxOS 4.3.2 but resolution is still locked at 12 MP. Any idea how, if this can be changed to the maximum supported HW resolution?

[Razem]

See:

Camera & Camera2 API - missing features & bugs

Reply from support: I actually have some more information to share about this. Here’s a quote from one of our developers: There’s no standard way in Android to work with those high resolutions, wide angle camera etc. Regular Android apps (installed via Play etc) can only access standard feature sets of Android (Android SDK etc). Anything that’s not covered by the SDK is just not accessible for regular apps. Preinstalled system apps (like our own camera app) can have access to everything we g…

I was hopefully able to convince them that using multiple cameras isn’t as problematic as they claim. But I’m not really sure about the high resolution. As far as I know, even the stock camera app uses some alternative mode to access it. Is there any standard way to do this using the API?

Also see:

@xblax

I believe 12MP is the intended native resolution of the sensor. The “high res” 48mp images are probably only available in a special capture mode. Afaik that is a function of the Qualcomm camera HAL but the camera Apps need special support for it.

Not sure if this is known or important or not,

FP4: Unlock aux camera

According to the Iode dev Calyx work is based on this…

@hirnsushi

Open Camera doesn’t lag with wide-angle in low-light situations either, so this is likely a GCam issue. Hopefully it can be fixed by diving into the configs I’ll have a look.

I have seen that the CalyxOS update has now arrived in stable. Has this solved the Gcam problem? Or by the configs of Gcam?

[hirnsushi]

Nope, there haven’t been further changes to the camera framework, stable in Calyx is just a beta that didn’t exhibit bugs.

I still think this is a GCam issue and not related to Camera2, so this should probably be continued in either the GCam or Calyx topics.
I haven’t had much time to play with the settings, but maybe others are closer to a solution
