I have talk with author of application and it said that he don't have now lg g3 and he don't know the change between old and new app(lollipop app on g3). If you can send it a logcat to him(info@bellabytes.com)

thanks and sorry for bad english
[G3 Android Development] chacho_2me:
already sent him the logcat..let us give him some good ol time to relax and think of something...cheers to the great app!
[G3 Android Development] :
Hrm I'm having some trouble saving to external sd. Saves fine on Stock cam app and also saves to internal fine.

Bah it's been a long day. Forgot the sd fix.
[G3 Android Development] chacho_2me:
guys..for those that needs this very awesome app..buy the xcam settings..then join the beta team... app works fine on android L ...cheers to the dev!
[G3 Android Development] WebDev28:
Having issues with vs985 11C base. Fc every time.
[G3 Android Development] bodom_hc:
AOSP support please? :D
[G3 Android Development] droidkevlar:
Do you guys search at all? Or just love pissing off great devs? Ill be nice this one time and post the answers, but stop putting crap into this thread.

1. Stop asking about AOSP

2. Its not working currently but is in the beta. If you want to join beta, purchase app and join through google+ beta.
[G3 Android Development] WebDev28:
I did do research. Always do. No where here on this thread does it state to go beta for it to work. It specifically states it only for Lollipop devices not vs985 devices. That's why I asked my question. This is where I looked and got my answer. Thanks anyway.
[G3 Android Development] droidkevlar:
Please delete.
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
You must have missed it, as it was discussed less than five pages prior to your post along with a fix/workaround that doesn't require the beta.
[G3 Android Development] igloohed73:
I can confirm that for all those wondering/asking in the future who choose to read back at least this far that XCam works on 11c. BUT you must ask to join the beta community on G+. Once accepted you must then join Google Beta Testers; the link is found at the top of the G+ page. Then you must download the Beta Version of XCam Settings. The app will check your XCam app for the latest beta & then prompt you with a link for a version of XCam that should not FC. After that enjoy.

To the dev. Thank you for a great app. I can't believe these options were not incorporated in the native cam app. Your work is appreciated & I look forward to future updates & surprises.
[G3 Android Development] crypta:
Can anyone explain to me, why the camera app needs this much permissions? SMS.. really? Looks nearly as it takes what it gets - can someone clarify for what all these are needed?
[G3 Android Development] MarimoMusicHead:
You see... The OP has a problem with women...

He made it so he can read your messages, learn and finally get it on with the ladies....

Awwww yeah! :D
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
I'm guessing you didn't bother to check the stock LG Camera app permissions before posting. This is based off the stock G2 camera. Regardless, I had already removed a bunch of LG's code (and corresponding permissions) for the next version as it was useless. Tin foil hats off.
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
New versions of XCam and Settings apps published. All details are in the first 3 posts.
[G3 Android Development] sudo.sh:

Thank you !
[G3 Android Development] MarimoMusicHead:
When i switch to video mode in Sevens 3.3(lollipop 5.0), dpi 540, everyhing gets shifted, i dont see any buttons and the "crosshair" is only showing the top and left mark, bottom and right are invisible.

Wanted to report it, but thats none of your business i presume :D
[G3 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Turning noise reduction off/on changes the point of view of the camera. With noise reduction off what you see in the screen is not what you finally get :cool:
[G3 Android Development] rederik79:
I installed the app on my G3 with Lollipop 20A without root, the camera works well but does not save the picture taken. I also bought xcam setting and tried to turn on Raw but nothing changes. Does not save the photo
[G3 Android Development] Kobibo:
Try to save the picture on internal storage not SD external.
[G3 Android Development] rederik79:
Yes, in internal storage working, but i have the external sd for music and picture.
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
Yes, it's b/c you changed your dpi. The way the stock G2 app (which this is based on) was designed, it expects the stock dpi. You can customize it for your specific dpi by editing the res/values-2144x1440/dimens.xml file. You'll need to change a number of values in there. If/when I get time I'll compile a version of that file for the most popular alternative dpi...is 540 what most people use on the G3 when they change it from stock?

Correct...with noise reduction turned off you get the least-processed jpg you can from the imx135...this means it will be noisy, so it will need to be touched up in an external program. While not as big as raw files, they can be upwards of 12MB.

Please read the OP for a reason and (potential) solution....I can't say whether it has changed again with L
[G3 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
The noise part I logically understand, I only wonder why the POV is completely different/wrong.

Picture as an example. Both pictures taken with the same POV/distance, only difference is noise reduction off/on:

This happens both using 13 and 10MP setting so that's not it as well.
[G3 Android Development] jmerchant:
I might be missing something, but with RAW, i'm getting files with a .r extension and nothing wants to open them. Is this correct or did I miss something in the set up. I took an image with a tap to focus (the first after I used the settings to use raw). Do you have any more info on using raw, like any apps that support it or anything?
[G3 Android Development] skiiermike:
I hit the thanks button instead of the quote. Lol.

I googled "android apps raw" and three showed up right away. It's not typically supported on mobile platforms which is why you cannot view it without a third party app.

Raw is a great file format that takes the "raw" image allowing you to do the post processing yourself instead of trusting the camera to do it.
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
in addition to noise reduction, there is also lens correction and cropping going on when the image is being processed. As this mode is bypassing all processing (other than wb, producing a jpg and adding exif info) they are also disabled.

Please read the 2nd post. There is link there with everything you need.
[G3 Android Development] maximo12345:
If I record a video in full HD 60fps, every time I stop the recording the app crashes. Even if I use the zoom audio..
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
None of the beta testers reported that, so can you get me a logcat along with your device info?
[G3 Android Development] rederik79:
so even with Lollipop I have to apply the solution is scheduled for KitKat

Edit: i have stock Lollipop 20a without root and sdfix don't work. So now i can't save my pictures in sd

Are you able to port this to AOSP? this would be great! i miss the 4K recording and picture quality!
[G3 Android Development] droidkevlar:
Are you able to read and search? Please stop asking the dev a question that has been asked a million times. Im not even a dev on this and Im tired of reading this over and over.
[G3 Android Development] MarimoMusicHead:
Well, i'm using 540dpi, but did notice some users going with 530 so i don't wanna put myself ahead of anyone...

As far as i'm concerned if anyone comes in and insists on 530, just go ahead with it :)
[G3 Android Development] Pete_S:
Unreserved thanks for this app and especially the advanced settings :)

The 2 killer features - No noise reduction and minimum sharpening capability. The G3 cam was already good but these features turn it into a proper camera replacement. Wish I'd had something similar for my previous phone (Xperia SP). Really ugly sharpening combined with smeary noise reduction spoiled an otherwise reasonable camera and absolutely nothing you could do about it.

This app actually allows more control than some quite expensive pocket cameras!
[G3 Android Development] maximo12345:
I have Android HD on lollipop and logcat is not enabled... I tried to install the app again and I've bought the app from Google play... Every time I'm shooting a full HD 60 fps video and I hit stop button the app crashes.. The video is saved anyway.

You don't have this behaviour on lollipop stock?

Thanks
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
I own a G2 and don't have the option of running lollipop.

[G3 Android Development] sinless34:
best settings which ?
[G3 Android Development] MarimoMusicHead:
Excuse me, but i just enabled the Settings app, tried to snap a raw photo, did, went onto playstore to try and fetch an app to open the image, neither of the two i tried worked...

Now, I noticed you pointed out to the second post, which then points to the thread made by M8 guys and a ton of tutorials on how to make it work on a couple of phones by changing some settings and flashing some zips...

Do i really need to do all that? I mean, i dont know if thats the regular procedure...?
[G3 Android Development] Reli4nth:
Hi guys, I'm having a little problem with the app.

When I switch from picture to video mode, camera UI disappears and cannot open settings or switch back to picture mode.

I'm using ChupaChups ROM (Lollipop) and donation app on LG D855.

Thank you.
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
No, you don't need to do all of those steps (i.e. modifying apks, etc) or flash anything. That's for helping people that don't even have an app that can produce the raw sensor data. If you read through the thread, you'll see the important part is that you'll need to use dcraw on your computer to decode the raw files our camera produces. If you're new to working with raw or aren't comfortable with how it's described there I'll do my best to write up my own guide for using it next week.
[G3 Android Development] RafliXXX:
I having this same problem.

Sorry for my bad english.

[G3 Android Development] troopii:
So main problem for raw on android is that the raw is 10bit. That means the first 4 bytes contains pixeldata. And the 5th byte contains extradata for the first 4 bytes. This cant read by the most popular programs like camera raw. So dave coffin made it possible for dcraw to convert such raws.

There is also a opensource tool rawtherapee. There its possible to patch libraw to get it working without dcraw. But libraw is based on dcraw....
[G3 Android Development] PrucholHD:
The same for me but on AndroidNow 3.5
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
Correct...and for those looking to compile rawtherapee/dcraw, HERE is the patched dcraw 9.22 source (all credits Dave Coffin) that I zipped up for someone else last week. I will add it to the OP as well.
[G3 Android Development] kchapman0626:
Any REAL reasoning behind this? I mean, that is seemingly a basic feature of any camera app, right? I can tell you I used the #@!$ out of that feature with my old phone before the G3. It is nice to actually tap where you want focused and take a pic all in one tap basically.

Does anyone have an idea if this can be built in to this app? Do the devs take feature requests from paying customers? Thanks...
[G3 Android Development] :
Great app, i donate for this app, is complete and the quality is best.
[G3 Android Development] skiiermike:
I'll start by stating that I love this setup and since my phone camera is very important to me I would hate to lose it.

With that being said, due to all the new development with Roms for this phone is there any possibility the app will support custom Roms in the future?
[G3 Android Development] reza1995live:
Hey xdabbed...can you add some features of the new camera api...i mean full control over the settings?
[G3 Android Development] :
Any reason why videos after a certain length don't save and the app just crashes.

?
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
I assume by custom rom you mean AOSP/CM. If so, I don't currently have any plans to do so, but who knows what the future holds.

As soon as I have L available on my device (G2), I will look into it. I have no idea when that will be. From what I've seen, LG didn't include any new capabilities in their camera app, however.

No, but there's not much I can do without a logcat regardless. It's possible your device is heating up? How long of a video and what was your temp at the time?
[G3 Android Development] pikachukaki:
I flash the advance drivers and install the cam at stock 20h version but no slowmo... What am I doing wrong?
[G3 Android Development] salvatore94:
[MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] any plans to update your mod to lollipop? And also why did not use g3's camera ui as base? Anyway thanks for your work. I enjoyed this mod on my d802 and now on d855!

[G3 Android Development] joejoe23:
How do you fix the missing buttons after changing to video ?
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
To start with...I think you're in the wrong forum :) Aside from that, I'm guessing you installed the wrong apk. Go to the G2 forum and read the install instructions there

It works with (some) L roms already. I didn't use the G3 camera UI b/c I don't really like it (too limiting). Glad you're liking it!

There's a link in the OP to another thread on XDA with all the info you need. You'll need to do some reading though.

There are no "best" settings...what works for one shot may not be best for another. I would encourage trying everything/experimenting so you get a feel for what everything does.

Some people have reported problems running certain Lollipop roms, and for others it works fine. Regardless, there's not much I can do to help if people just post "it doesn't work" without any logs. I don't have the G3, so there's no way I can reproduce any issues.

No, not at this time. It's auto or one of the pre-selected manual modes.
[G3 Android Development] pikachukaki:
Oh this is for g3...[emoji14]
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
Then you made an even bigger mistake by installing the advanced driver (which is in the G2 forum). I have not made a driver for the G3. Is there even a 20H for the G3? A few things don't add up.
[G3 Android Development] chacho_2me:
ok sir...but i tried everything there..but i really cannot understand why i am only having "demosaicing started" on dcraw ui.. and even using all versions of dcraw using manual codings...gives me error that unable to decode file

i did post all the files i used on G+ sir, maybe you could have a look if i did something wrong?hahaha...anyway, will try to read them all again then :D and this wont stop me from loving XCAM!!! :D

maybe anyone can help me how to patch rawtherapee :D
[G3 Android Development] arilsongomes:
I have 2 questions:

1) did anybody try to use it in the last ChupaChups [20D Lollipop]?

2) If I'm to install it in a Lollipop Rom, do I still have to install NextApp SDFix If I want to save the photos in my external SD Card?

Thx and congratulations?

[G3 Android Development] tribalartgod:

[G3 Android Development] chi_heng:
As lollipop now has proper support for SD card access, will this camera app be updated accordingly? thx.
[G3 Android Development] GTMoraes:
Hey [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION], I noticed few bugs with the camera on ChupaChups 20D Lollipop (I think with Lollipop, as a whole?)

1 - UI disappears when switching modes. If you tap where the button was supposed to be, it will perform the action.

2 - Recording may cause a instant close when clicking on stop button. Most notably with 720p 120FPS (after 10 seconds, it always crashes). Video is saved, but it seems to not show up on gallery. One would need to go find the actual file using a file manager.

3 - 4K recording is broken. It starts fine, but after 1 or 2 seconds, it looks like to be a webcam stream through a slow internet. Video size is small, though

4 - 1080p 30fps feels way smoother in indoor light/low light than 1080p 60fps. 1080 30fps doesn't seem to "capture more light", as both 30 and 60fps are dark.

5 - 30fps modes are too dark.

The following log has been produced with those steps:

01 - Fire up CatLog

02 - Check "Errors Only"

03 - Pause, clean logs

04 - Start Logging

05 - Home Button

06 - XCam

07 - Select Video Mode

08 - UI is missing

09 - Tap where the record button should be.

10 - Wait 10 seconds

11 - Tap where the stop button should be. XCam insta closes

12 - Apps Drawer

13 - Open up CatLog

14 - Stop Logging

[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
[MENTION=3261130]GTMoraes[/MENTION] thanks for being the first to actually provide a log. The problem, however is that there seems to be a lot of conflicting information about L-related problems. The only common thread I've found is that it seems the issues are more likely on the custom L roms that have been posted. Some have had issues with any camera/video installed. I'll take a look through the log, but it may be that these are rom issues that should be addressed there. Case in point, the post below yours...

[MENTION=4430731]chicks0315[/MENTION] can you get me a log of this? Is this truly stock 20D or is it one of the custom roms posted here? Thanks

Pure LG Stock 20D. Didn't even install my apps, only catlog and XCam

Had to set recording to internal SD card, because it couldn't write to external SD (I don't know why this happens with stock ROMs. restorecon says it has access denied to .android_secure, even with -FR, and can't do anything else). But I don't think this is relevant to you. Same issues encountered, of UI vanishing after changing modes and instant crashing after stopping a 720p 120fps recording (I noticed that it doesn't need to be 10 seconds. Stopping it at any rate is enough to crash)

[G3 Android Development] MechanicalMecca:
Not possible as far as I know

from what I've read while doing research on the internet LG on the g3 has turned off the ability to save anything to the SD card. I don't know if the system can still use the SD card to store parts of apps or other things but as for saving photos or music or apps you're on your own it is not possible as of yet. It would be so awesome if somebody could find a work around because this is the most annoying part of owning an LG g3, without this problem this phone would be amazing thanks. if you're interested in learning more just google LG g3 SD card usage turned off. That should bring you a wealth of information and maybe even a fix for your issue best of luck cheers mate.

It's being worked on. Lollipop only just came out for two variants. Be patient.
[G3 Android Development] GTMoraes:
What are you talking about?! The stock G3 cam is able to store to the SD card, pictures and videos. Apps can be moved to SD card. Hell, you can even link your normal folders to the SD card and make the phone use it instead of the actual internal memory. What would be the use of supporting SDcard if everything is forbidden?

thought so.

I must have s bsd sd card then becsuse I insert it anf thr option to mount ot unmount are greyrd out and sd card does not show extra space when inserted. Im at a loss to this situation. Tried a few cards too.
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
[MENTION=5441992]MechanicalMecca[/MENTION] is correct. Google restricted sdcard access starting with Kit Kat. This had been discussed many times already. Without modifying your firmware, 3rd-party user apps can't do this.
[G3 Android Development] xhitm3n:
Are the .RAW files, completely have the Image information from the camera sensor, like DSLR´s? or do have some compression?
[G3 Android Development] xdabbeb:
No compression whatsoever. The files are as unprocessed as it gets for our phone.
