It is xz2 camera app with xz2 dual framework
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Thank you.

tomorrow i will have some time, hopefully.

Atleast it's now industry fair here in Hannover and I am working for a Hotel Company here :eek:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] karrouma:
Thank you pete

Tomorrow i have a break from work. I can test any time.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nolihowell:
Hello ? as i flash the xnext camera v5.35 and choose the option xz during the installation on the existenz rom v5.50 the camera app was gone from the app menu. Even if i reflash thrice already still didn't show up. I tried installing the app inside the xnext camera v5.35 it didn't install also. Please help thanks a bunch. I even reflash back to Sony clean stock rom via flashtool firmware version 41.3.A.2.107 still the same problems occurs the camera dissappears from the app menu when flashing xnext v5.35. Don't know what to do. It was working perfectly fine when I'm still on v5.00 existenz rom.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
Well i told you why. You probably put the mod after clean flash. You must: install existenz like the thread said,boot first time, open the camera, go to settings,app and clean data of camera common, camera and video (with camera icon).After that, without open the camera, reboot to recovery and flash the mod. For me works perfectly.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nolihowell:
Sorry ? to tell yah your advice didn't work for me instead im still facing the same problem. After performing a clean flash of the firmware then cleaning the data of camera, camera common, and video apps still no camera app had shown up after flasing xnext camera v5.35.

---------- Post added at 06:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:33 PM ----------

Alright I reflash again the firmware 41.3.A.2.107 better stick with it for now so that i have a rom to backup before his release of oreo based mod I've had enough of the current version. Thanks again for the continuous support, god bless you more peter.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
You probably doing something wrong. Because for me works only with this. I'm on existenz 5.50 and this mod works perfectly. So i don't know...
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nolihowell:
The problem appears to be as if after flashing the xnext camera v5.35 on existenz 5.50 the attributes doesn't apply once rebooted. There's no sign of changes to the system partition in particular the following directories system/app, system priv-app, and other directories that the mod tends to affect.

---------- Post added at 08:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 AM ----------

It's strange I understand your point completely I don't know what could have possibly gone wrong. This didn't occur on existenz v5.00 with xnext camera v5.35.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
Strange really... For me this problem appear if i don't do that method Who i write in this thread.

Hey man thank you for your awesome mod I always used this on my Xperia Z5

I have a suggestion if you can make that would be great

I think it's better to make separate oreo version based on XZ2 camera

Current version on my XZ is working as expected but it's diffidently slower, Camera UI, taking and opening pictures is slower than Stock Oreo /or Existenz ROM for XZ which has XZ2 camera port but it's not unlocked

Cheers,
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
Post processing is slower for better quality I think. Existenz have only icon of xz2 can. For other things,is the same of xz ,version too.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] korom42:
I can't tell if there's a noticable difference in quality

What I noticed is that most of the time taken pictures will be blurry especially of your hands are shaking (Superior Auto)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
it's slower because it takes more data per taken picture. This is caused by changing from rgb565 to argb.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TheEndHK:
Do you see any improvement over photo size? In my past experiences, Sony never real read those values(other than videobit), I was tried to decompile and mod the jpeg quality in apk exactly like you and the .xml too but no luck. There must be some other hidden values in system files.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
I did this changes in apk, media_profiles.xml and in build.prop. Thats the magic ( well 100 to 97, there isn´t much space to tweak ).
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Update for Xpera X ready
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TheEndHK:
So I guess I missed build.prop.

But what did you change in media_profiles.xml? I can't find anything been modified, seems only changed the videobit?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] carlito-lt26i:
pls port for XP too.:)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] karrouma:
Same

---------- Post added at 06:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 AM ----------

@peter.schwake@gmail.com

For xz version 2.1 z5 and z5p

In manual mode pictures are darker than auto mode and a difference of 1mb size smaller than automode in outdoor pictures.

Manual are darker and less detail and more blure.

Automode more detail and brighter.

Both photo @ iso 50 or 100

Some time iso 40 more than iso 50 in size (1.5 mb in size)

Problem in manual mode
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kistigun:
I cant flash the x update, somehow it's not reconized as a flashable zip

edit: repacked the zip, now it's working fine on my X! Thanks!

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TheEndHK:
Omg I only shoot manual, guess time to roll back my twrp backup.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kistigun:
Yes, all is working now, except front camera is force closing
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:

I have reflash v2.1 via recovery, and all work perfect now. It seems i forget to replace build.prop or other files by mistake.

Now no problem after clear all camera and camera common data and reflash v2.1 all work fine now

---------- Post added at 06:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 PM ----------

X serie working fine with me.

Clear all data from cam and common and video

Enter to your rooted file manager and delete all folder semcamera .

Reflash x mod from twrp and work now

If you dont have twrp use luckypatcher
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TheEndHK:
Actually, I found I got the same result with you and I even notce indoor also darker and slightly blur but I didn't forget to replace build.prop(it should not happen to me since I installed it via recovery not manually). Will try clear all data and reflash.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kistigun:
under system/priv-app? I've deleted semcCameraUI and SemcCamera3D, deleted data from camera, camera common and video and reflashed with flasfire but front camera is still crashing

And an off-topic question: do you have working twrp on xperia x?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] karrouma:
Try to flash v2 for xperia x and replace camera app from v1 before opening the cam.

Front cam work fine i think, try to change 4k to standar and video to standard also not intelligent....

For twrp: we used flashfire.

I have z5p with twrp fully rooted,

but my one of my friend have xperia x rooted and camera mod work with with no fc.

Thank you
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kistigun:
weird still got the same problem, but it only crashes in camera mode. Video mode is working fine. I'm also using flashfire
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] mele80:
Is there a list of features for this mod?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TheEndHK:
I roll back my twrp backup and clear all data(even manually removed folder of SemcCamera in root explorer) and reflashed V2.1 on my Z5c and wiped all cache/d-cache. I checked the build.prop is successfully flashed.

I don't think the 100% JPG magic does the trick, all photo shot from manual/sa mode with 23MP still compressed both indoor and outdoor. I was a S6 user that 16MP camera still produces larger file size everytime over my 23MP camera. I think it's not an easy task to real set to 100% without hacking into some lib files.

Does anyone actually found the jpg size increase? :confused:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] mkdmc:
I also had done 4 tricks for 100% JPEG Quality on cyberian mod.(Smali, media profile, etc)

But we can never set it to 100!

For example camera hal jpeg quality value is 85 and we can't change it(It's not easy to find and change the value)

If we increase jpeg quality from smalis or media profiles, then we are increasing it from 82 to 85!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
Use manual with auto scene. Quality there is the best for auto purpose. But dettail overall seems better on all situations than stock one.

Is the one thing who i try to say but you explain better. Thank you.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Sorry for being late on the plan for update, but I crashed my XZ without a backup, or a flashable rom. :laugh:

Please be smarter than me and don't forget to backup your phone.

Or have a at minimum a flashable rom, to dirty flash. :laugh:

Development Update XZ2 Camera Apk

As I told you before, it's like that, sony changes the resolution values all over the code, so I have to correct these ones, in the hole apk, which isn't impossible, but it takes hours.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
Backup is life, don't forget it :p Hope we have a big nice update ! And take your time to make our xperias better on camera ;)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] whalesplaho:
Sorry bout tha crash and note for all of us.....
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
If someone need a ROM for XZ Single SIM (Nougat latest) because he did crashed his device... I can now help him ;)

Xnext XZ2 Camera, Preview v0.10

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1C00ht9UbhrG9LU6Dx3vTsDoMaYYAsjSF/view?usp=sharing

Comes with ARGB 8888, JPEG 100 instead 90, few other changes, simple unlock... :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Forbiddendnb:
For xz?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
No, this will not working on XZ.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Pandemic:
Why not and XZs ?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Because it uses different Resolutions. Because it's preview 0.10. And because of actual time here (1 o'clock), I have to go to work in 5 hours....

Finally you can test own your own - please bro backup your current apk and give me a feedback. but it could be working for xzs.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] karrouma:
You are the king bro.

I am downloading now and will test it.

replacing cam app and back cam is fine. (don't clear data or cache you got cam error)

FRONT CAM IS VERRY VERY LAGGY and can't takes pic.

when used front cam you can't quit the app. after thst cam got close and not working
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Ok, well it's initial apk, I haven't expected it's bugfree... Will try to solve it later today in the evening...
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Forbiddendnb:
[MENTION=5222845]peter.schwake@gmail.com[/MENTION] , I install 0.10 in my xz, camera fc. And i reinstall 5.35 and camera dont work(no icon and app list clear), what can i do?

I clear data all camera apps, but results 0
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Extract apk from z5 folder, push by hand to system. set permissions and reboot.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Forbiddendnb:
Not for xz?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] whalesplaho:
Try what he says first den if not working, go for XZ.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Forbiddendnb:
Dont work, restore data, only help.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Easier Solution would be :

Go to /data/data and delete all camera releated folders.

Reboot to recovery and clean dalvik cache / cache. Reboot.

Sorry for tell this to late.

It's based on the fact that databases not only store your settings, they also store the actually state.

In theory you could change the database stored values, but it's much faster to delete simply the folders and set user settings in the camera again.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] gonzal86:
Hi its possible to port this camera to xperia z3 MM ?

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nolihowell:
In which camera app is xnext camera v5.45 based upon? Nougat or Oreo?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
It's a Nougat base, but it contains a lot of coding which is taken from xz2 oreo apk. This allows to improve the Camera and keep it compatible as most as possible.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
oh yes I am sorry, I was deleting this, I forgot that Z4 has the 20.7 mp sensor.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nolihowell:
thanks for the hard work. Are you still planning the oreo based mod in the future?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
XZ, XZs, XZ2 ( XYZ xD Sony's Device naming is... let's call it uninspired :silly: ) will of get a Oreo based update. Why shouldn't they?

For me as Developer it is simple -> if a base is working, I try to improve it as long as it is possible and useful.

A new base means a lot of work for a small (possible) improvement.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] zthanhtrung:

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] raziel zarafan:
Yes bro I have the same problem with 5.45
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
The Noise issue is based on the fact I have pushed a value to high. -> I am sorry, but it's part of 'how to find the best value' called fine calibration xD

5.55 is released next two hours.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] peter.schwake@gmail.com:
Scene modes

For example :

- Nachtszene (Night scene) is for a night landcsape picture

- Nachtaufnahme (Night portrait) is for a night portrait picture

- Nacht (Night) is a single focus night mode

- Beach and Snow is now available, too. Its a good working scene mode for places with possible high reflections. It's less specific than beach or snow.

Screenshot is taken from the new v5.55.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
Thanks for explaination of scenes ,problem and your work . I hope that new value can get better results than 5.35 :) and i i have those scenes on 5.35 too...strange xD

Hi, it's possible uninstall the mod and restore the original camera app? If yes, how? Thanks.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Pandemic:
Restore your back up, people never learn to make a back up before install ?!

No backup is there a way to get back to the standard camera?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] nolihowell:
There is one only way reflashing your firmware again. Sorry ? that's the only possible way since lots of modifications is implemented on the system already. Why is the stock camera app even better?

I agree ? with you all the way. They should always have a second thought before flashing mods to their phones.

Compared side by side with stock z5 camera.

-Superior auto seems dimmer(compared to stock camera)

- View finder is smoother now(i personally like it)

Well done..:)

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Pandemic:
Changelogs says it !!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Dhicky:
So there is no manual focus?

And also slowmotion video only records 120fps video without editing UI after recording. I try to find timeshift video but I can't find it.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] mbc07:
I flashed the mod on my Xperia X running stock Oreo firmware with root and while it works fine, I have some questions:

* I'm not seeing HDR option for video anymore. Is that expected?

* I can't change scene mode anymore when recording in Full HD 60 FPS. Is that normal too?

* The squares for predictive AF are duplicated and seems to track the object clicked erratically. Did I mess something?

* 4K UHD option is available but the preview has a weird bright spot and when you start recording, the video becomes super dark and you can barely see anything. This also happens with stock Super Video Camera (if I delete the specific overlay to make 4k video add-on available), so I'm guessing is a firmware bug that can't be fixed, even with Xnext camera mod?

I took some pictures and noticed improvements in the final pictures, so I'm really considering keeping the mod installed, but the points I mentioned seems like a downgrade compared to stock camera...
