It's odd because previously I was on stock rom .253 with Androplus v36 and I had no issues flashing and running the app and I even had a few xposed mods running. I only just switched to the XPower v4 to test it out and configured to the 'base' installation. Dunno if any of those matters.

Regarding the superusermod, I looked it up and found it to be rather complicated. I am not a programmer so I am afraid I might do some harm to the software. :(

But it must be mentioned that the camera works in 3rd party apps like Snapchat, Instagram and even Open Camera. I was also able to revert to the old camera apk so it is still working for me.

It would be nice if I am able to install this new camera app as it is really fast and responsive. :P

Works very nice on z3+ e6533. Have no any problem. Thanks for your work.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Thank you very much, for this detailed report.

- This is a good report, especially if you have problems, I need much details as possible.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TheEndHK:
A bit off-topic here from this thread.

That's why I fall back to XPower V3 and the dev doesn't show V4 in his first page. I actually installed V4 full to testing for two days and I found some weird things. It looks like the systemless supersu and systemless xposed doesn't building good with V4. The XPower lite too much debloated sometimes will create problem too, so I'll just install full and debloat myself.

And I think video quality is softed in V4 and I got more bluetooth disconnection with my smartwatch, so I just roll back V3 but that should be .253 problem from sony.

[/COLOR]Bro [MENTION=5222845]peter.schwake@gmail.com[/MENTION], how to update to V3.X on ROM that preloaded with older version (like ROMX, eXistenZ, MWA)? Just flash V3.X zip?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
:D you can and you should flash tweaks too, because ROMX using old values and eXistenZ haven´t include them.

eXistenZ comes with renamed camera and video app, so I recommend to delete these folder by hand. :o
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
:good: Best ROM for my Camera, because it is using stock camera system.

Finally all phone models updated to Xnext.

Your mod is awesome!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] SebastianAlejandro:
Can your mod be installed like normal app for my Z5C without root? If yes, how can i do it?. Thanks! :).
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Vazzeking:
No way Bro. This mod has libs and etc. Impossible
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
You can try to install the .apk normally. But I think installation fails, because you can only update system apps with 'newer' versions.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] SebastianAlejandro:
Thanks both. It didn't work, but at least i tried :).

Anyone else has delay entering album app from camera app after taking a photo? Is there something that could be done for it.

Ps. Great mod, loving it!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Pandemic:
I had that also earlier on mybZ5 but just wait and all will be good, because it needs to settle :)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] mele80:
Yes i know, it takes maybe 5 sec.....just wondering if there anything for user or modder that could be done to reduce delay.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] _LLJY:
It's completely normal, especially when it's a cold start and when you just took a picture. That's just how file I/o works

Set io scheduler to ROW and see what happens
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] LMcR92:
Great camera mod/tweak. Here are a few samples one SA another manual. Alot better than stock in de-noise, colour accuracy and sharpness. But I would to see 20.7 16/9 , or I could just crop ?.

Anyway thanks for this. Manual I used lowest iso of 50 and HDR, but can't tell the difference lol.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
I tried to add 20.7mp, 12mp,15.5mp... All coding is actually in the apk. BUT... Maybe it's a sensor limit or driver doesn't support it...

By the way... Just a little bit about 'megapixels'

20.7mp >> 5264×3960 - 4:3

20.1mp >> 5984x3366 - 16:9

Basically you choose the used resolution, which means 20.7mp is always 4:3 and 20.1 is always 16:9.

Z5 Unmodified, Locked Bootloader vs XZ XZ CameraProject Xnext

Im quite disappointed that my xz loses to its predecessor the z5 towards camera department after using this mode ( XZ CameraProject Xnext). Especially in an area where there's a little light.

DSC_0001 is Z5 vs DSC_1793 is xz.

View attachment 3947393

View attachment 3947394

Now the xz excels in areas which has more light.

DSC_0002 and DSC_0003 is z5

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] LMcR92:
Yeah seems Sony adjusted the processing on the xz. What really gets to me is Sony makes some of the best DSLR cameras , innovative camera technology and makes and sells most sensors to competitors yet they can't create the best on there own flagships.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] iArvee:
The hardware is fine, actually. It's just the software processing. They need to work on that.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] LMcR92:
That what I mean. They are one of the biggest camera manufacturers that pioneered in bionz, steadyshot etc.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TheEndHK:
Both z5 and xz flashed the mod cam and turned out z5 with better result?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nolihowell:
Nope my z5 was locked bootloader unmodified stock firmware so i cant flashed any cam mod only the xz that is unlocked bootloader rooted and cam modded. Yes the z5 perform much better in some areas even though my xz previously outperforms it before i unlocked the bootloader and installed this mode. I dont know what improvements does this mode makes.

Video recording file save error
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nreuge:
Not for me.

Note that for 4K video recording, you MUST disable steadyshot.

[MENTION=5222845]peter.schwake@gmail.com[/MENTION]

BTW, it would be great if steadyshot could be automatically ignored for 4K video recording. Thus, no need for disabling / re-enabling it.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] shanpao:

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
For ignoring steadyshot in 4k, it would require to write the coding from scratch. A lot of work for that.

When I update the mod to android 7, I will try to include it.

Saving Video takes more time than before, because I set quality higher. Open Video from your player, than everthing is fine. :laugh:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] shanpao:
This camera can be used in the 5.1 system?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
It seems to be a rom problem.

As far as I remember, eXistenZ uses different name for camera folders.

You should delete old folders by hand.

app:

CameraAddonPermission, CameraCommonPermission, CameraExtensionPermission

priv-app:

SemcCameraUI, SuperVideoCamera

Names from eXistenZ can be different in newer builds. If you don't know what folder is mine: i use longer (stock) names.

After that reflash and delete caches.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] mauro79:
Hello great news witht the Camera APK.

I want to know how about the X Compact? It use the same technology like the xz.

For me its important the better futures and the 12 megapixel to use on the APP.

Is it poissible to work on it ??
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] karrouma:
About the 12 mpx we should ask the op who work all time to update his works.

About the x compact yes the same and should work, rename the xx in the folder and camera app to one x
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] iArvee:
I'm using the Xperia Z5 Compact and I've noticed that I keep getting flickering when my ISO is set to automatic. I have a Samsung Note 5 for comparison and the camera doesn't "flicker". I've attached an image to show what I'm talking about. The flickering wasn't present on stock. Is anyone else getting this?

Additional info:

Stock .305 deodexed. Superuser mod and rooted. :D Also this only happens when I'm in the office or of the background is white.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] whalesplaho:
really loving dis mod.... happy to use!

dnt know if OP [MENTION=5222845]peter.schwake@gmail.com[/MENTION] can create 12mpx cos 23mpx photo size are way too large in size.! currently using 7.9 4:3 mode.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nreuge:
Indeed, 12-15 mpix would be great.

[MENTION=5222845]peter.schwake@gmail.com[/MENTION]

BTW, am I wrong or Bionz engine is better optimized for 8 mpix than for 23 mpix?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] whalesplaho:
I avnt noticed dat buh might be maybe cos of tha large size in 23mpx pix!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
It's not based on the engine, it's based on the sensor. 23mp causing a lot of noise, when the light is not perfect. Take a look at Wikipedia for better explanation :)

For me it's quite difficult to explain in English.

I have tried to add 12mp, but it wasn't working. Actually I wait for nougat (for z5).

Then I will try again. :)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] whalesplaho:
dats sad... not working?

bit what is tha cause?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] _LLJY:
[MENTION=2321188]petersch[/MENTION]wake@gmail.com

I'll explain it.

Downsampling an image from a higher to lower res preserves the quality of the picture from the higher resolution and it also reduces noise . Things that you'll notice is that

1. Colour reproduction is better

2. The images will look much better in low light

Lower res images are also much easier to process, which might be the main reason why BIONZ works better in 8mp.

As for 12mp, the sensor might not support it at all
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] whalesplaho:
well said.... most cameras now do carries 16MPX!

im using 7.9 4:3 here too...
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nreuge:
Ok, thanks for the explanations.

I've just done some tests in order to compare the final rendering at 8/23 mpx resolutions.

I've take the same scene 3 times:

- 1st shot at 8 mpx

- 2nd shot at 23 mpx

- 3rd shot with my Sony HX60 camera at its native 18 mpx

Then, I've cropped the pics in a small zone to compare the details. Look at the results (on a big screen or you won't see the differences):

Z5 / 8 mpx

Z5 / 23 mpx

HX60 / 18 mpx

​

There is indeed much more noise in the 23 mpx shot (and maybe a little more details but its very hard to say with the noise...). Honestly, I prefer the 8 mpx shot.

The third shot is obviously the best, but this is a "true" camera. Note that this is a Sony camera that uses the bionz engine too (and of course, the shot would have been even much better if I would have used the optical zoom).
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] anjelz2012:
Do we have any hope of getting the RAW capture?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
In low light, correct exposure requires the use of slow shutter speed (i.e. long exposure time), higher gain (ISO sensitivity), or both. On most cameras, slower shutter speeds lead to increased salt-and-pepper noise due to photodiode leakage currents.

At the cost of a doubling of read noise variance (41% increase in read noise standard deviation), this salt-and-pepper noise can be mostly eliminated by dark frame subtraction. Banding noise, similar to shadow noise, can be introduced through brightening shadows or through color-balance processing.

The relative effect of both read noise and shot noise increase as the exposure is reduced, corresponding to increased ISO sensitivity, since fewer photons are counted (shot noise) and since more amplification of the signal is necessary.

- Wikipedia

Basically a higher resolution and higher ISO creates more noise (only smartphone cameras). This is a result of lowering the sensor size and higher resolution.

This is mainly an effect of the technology itself, not only an engine based problem.
