Hey everyone, with Fairphone upgrading the feature set of its camera with every new phone, people using operating systems like /e/OS and CalyxOS are largely being left behind. Features like full resolution (48MP) and likely also the new (virtual?) video stabilization are not available. The list go…

Install fails :disappointed_relieved: (the package installer just crashes) From other forum posts it appears that the package name of the Fairphone camera (com.fp.camera) is different to the camera app I have currently installed, so it doesn’t appear like something I can fix… Even if I did get it …

ok, good to know. The only FP4 I have at hand here runs Fairphone OS, so I could not test the apk. – Well, I did try on two FP3s (one running Fairphone OS, the other /e/OS) and got an incompatibility message, but given the FP3 is indeed a different device, I took that as not so surprising …

I got the same experience as @jazzforlife :frowning: I have no problem with running adb commands etc. to get this working, but I would definitely feel better about it if there were clear steps somewhere… :sweat_smile: [Screenshot_20240222-072253_Package installer]

[image] jazzforlife: Install fails :disappointed_relieved: (the package installer just crashes) adb is a bit more verbose in its output: adb: failed to install FPCamera.v7.00.04.0007.4.0.apk: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY: Reconciliation failed...: Reconcile failed: Package …

Has anyone ever tried to install the previous official FP camera app on a custom rom? Did this ever work? I’m curious, never thought of it. I know that with pixels and grapheneOS you actually can install the official pixel cam app from the sandboxed play store, with all functionality. That’s pretty…

Guess the topic linked above will give some hints. [image] Stock camera on LineageOS: Permissions denied Fairphone 4 I installed the microg-edition of LineageOS 20 on my Fairphone 4, pulled the stock camera app FPCamera.apk (com.fp.camera, v2.0.039(06301600-01)) out of th…

The previous version mostly worked just fine with the workarounds mentioned before, but there weren’t a lot of reasons to use it since it was worse than most of the alternatives (especially GCam). Now it might actually be usable, I kind of like the more muted / natural colors it produces. [imag…

If this really is just a question of missing proprietary blobs, that’d be awesome! [image] he/they/*: I’m not sure what you mean, having a working camera app doesn’t depend on the package name. I just meant that the package names might conflict with each other, if they were called the same.

Here is a good tutorial how to extract fpcamera app and other things from original fp images. I already brought the missing native library topic to the calyx matrix chat . And it looks like they will include that library. They already added TP29 to there repository, but I hope the library will be …

Great to see @inubu you have informed CalyxOS and they already have updated their repo :ok_hand: I am confused though, when this patch is incorporated in the next update of non-Google OS (such as CalyxOS), will it improve any camera app installed or is it targeting only the FP Camera app?
