Heureka! Greetings from Berlin, where it’s a whopping 6 degrees Celsius today. Brrrrr! So I just got an FP4, degoogled it, broke out in tears over picture quality. Then I found a link on here that pointed to the new camera APK, but sadly, that file is no longer up. Could someone please be so kind…

Willkommen im Fairphone Forum. Was genau meinst Du mit ‘degoogled it’? Wie bist Du vorgegangen? Das Kamera-Update ist Teil der Orignalsoftware von Fairphone, kommt also mit dem aktuellen Betriebssystem.

Das ist gut zu wissen, auch wenn es sich nicht mit meinen Erfahrungen deckt. Momentan bspw. bin ich auf Open Camera, kann aber nur bis max 12MP Auflösung einstellen. Die beworbenen 48MP wollen sich mir schlichtweg nicht offenbaren. Was mache ich falsch? [Screenshot-20240419-180236-Open-Camera]

See: [image] Camera & Camera2 API - missing features & bugs 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 suppo…

Thanks for your input, Razem I read most of that thread, but it gets a bit too technical for me at times. The thing I don’t understand though is the business rationale behind NOT providing a proper interface. Doing so would sell more devices, wouldn’t it, ESPECIALLY with a phone that aims at a nic…

PS. Somewhere else on this board I read that someone just manually threw out as many google packages as possible without breaking the phone. He did that on an FP5, because seemingly it’s a way to kept the camera in all its splendor. I would totally something like that on a normal computer, but I do…

[image] DJ_Flugscham: Germany, selling a thing that doesn’t deliver promised features factually voids the sales contract (“Sachmangel”). I dont think that this applies, because you are just not using the stock system and I dont think anyone promised you full 48MP with thirsd party ROMs or Ap…

@Volker Thanks for your input, Volker. I might give it a try these days. I had my fair share of bricklaying, and as I progress in age, I steer away from heart- and jailbreaks. @yvmuell : Thanks, I wasn’t aware that MP and MP are actually two different things. I did wonder though how such a sudden j…

search a laywer and discuss with FPs legal department.

It’s not worth my time, but it shure would motivate the business to get their act together. I will try the above steps and if that won’t help, that phone can make someone else unhappy. :wink:

🇩🇪 🇬🇧 Someone please point me to the latest FP4 camera app
