[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1asbak1:
Hi there,

I am a photographer and have almost complete my 8-year journey of developing [the ultimate digital photography workflow] .

If it was not for this problem I need your with help

Everything works but.... : PLEASE HELP.

----------

TLDR:

Snapseed can't open raw files, Let this please just be a simple Build.Prop edit that tricks Snapseed into thinking the emulator is a compatible device.

-----------

Full Story:

Part of the workflow does entail editing the raw files in android running emmulated on a windows machine.

Everytime I try to open a .ARW file with Snapseed running on various android Emulators* it will give me the following message which I do not get on my phone (Oneplus 3T).

Snapseed, The ultimate workflow killer

The research so far got me to edit the Build.Prop with the line:" 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1'

Something that is supposed to make the CAMERA2 API work.

Link:https://forum.xda...579

This was based upon the assumption I drew from the quote below from a google help forum in which a Snapseed developer basically was hinting that the error has something to do with RAW support of the phone in general. quote:

Quote:

RAW capture on Android has similar requirements to Snapseed with RAW. That's why I say that if it can capture RAW, it probably supports RAW in Snapseed. Some devices that can capture RAW need a third party camera app to use it.

Bonus tip: Camera apps with RAW will disable it if the phone/tablet doesn't support it.

-------

Possible solutions?:

-This does give me at least some hope that there is some other thing (Build.prop.-wise) we can do in order to make Snapseed open and edit RAW (.ARW) files.

-Maybe someone with know how could look at the actual code of the APK of snapseed in order to figure out what we could change? I am not technical any further than rooting and flashing a rom once in a while.

You would be of serious help, finding out how to make this work.

For what matters, you will be helping me creating art, my Instagram page:

Greetings from Amsterdam,

Thijs.

PS.

Ofcourse I will share the final workflow if it will see it's complete light someday. (Since it only works as a whole)

(*I know there is something like Phoenix and Remix OS that do not have this described problem, It does however give rise to the the BIG problem of not being able to calibrate the display with a remote callibrator tool (Idisplay) . If ran on an Emulator the windows in the background will still provide the just and real colors) Emulators I tried? : Memu, Andy and NOX show the same error)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1asbak1:
Possible other angle:

Quote:

For the OP problem I was having the same error and it was because my phone doesn't have the RAW capability, meaning the CameraCharacteristics.REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITI ES_RAW (https://developer.android.com/refere...PABILITIES_RAW), so the mCharacteristics is never set.

You can remove all the RAW references and implementations and it should work.

I used to jave an lg g3, but it stopped reading the sim card ( sometimes it does although it is only for a minute or 2 ). I bought an lumia 640xl on sale, for half the price. I just hate the phone, its slow, 0 costumization, lack of apps, unresponsive display. In summary, not a phone for me. Should i buy this phone or is there a better option ( i can get this phone for 230euros (snapdragon,32 Gb)?

I have an S7 and the Samsung Fast Charge Wireless pad.

It has been working for a couple of months, and now suddenly it will not charge.

When I put my S7 on the pad it initially starts to charge, and then I get a message saying "Wireless Charging Paused" with a blue flashing LED.

I have googled around and for the S6 people mentioned that putting the phone in "daydream mode" fixes this problem, but I dont have this option on the S7.

Has anyone encountered/solved this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] lirong:
For anyone else having this issue...

I googled around and tried 10 different suggestions, none of which worked. A lot of people seem to be having this type of issue.

Then, I unplugged the USB cable from my wireless pad, waited a few seconds and plugged in again. VOILA. That worked.

Sometimes the answers are so simple....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DonDallas71:
I also have a Samsung Fast Charge Wireless stand with the Samsung fast charge wall charger and cable that it came with, and a Galaxy S7 Edge. I have never had this issue before, but since upgrading to Nougat a couple of weeks ago this seems to be happening frequently (wireless charging paused). I tried removing the slim case (which I never had to before), rebooting the phone, vertical or horizontal, and it had no impact. I also found that unplugging the wireless dock and then back in again fixed the issue. I don't have this issue with the older non-fast Samsung wireless charging pad (small square one). I am guessing there is some new battery/charging protection in Nougat that is a bit buggy and causing the stand to wig out until unplugged.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] loughrey101:
This happens to me and is why Smasung makes the worse wireless chargers ever. Won't ever go near a Samsung charger again. I bought a new and cheaper third party wireless fast charger and it charges every time with no charging paused issue, so there's obviously quality control issues with Samsung chargers and they never seem to fix the issue. People need to save their money and buy anything but a Samsung charger
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] TAX9II:
Wireless Charging of Samsung 6 edge+

I got a Samsung wireless charger a year or so ago and at first it worked fine. After a while I got tired of walking across my office every time the phone rang. I moved the wireless charger from the Samsung wall charger to a USB port sharing device on the computer. Admittedly I never looked at the notification on the phone when it chimed, I assumed it was charging whenever it chimed. It took a while (I must be slow) but I started noticing that the phone was not always (or perhaps ever) charging. However, It also didn't seem like it was chiming each time I put the phone on the wireless charger, like I wasn't putting the phone exactly where it needed to be. When I moved the USB plug around in the socket,the power chime was going off and on. Even when it gave the chime indication that it was properly receiving power, I (finally) noticed the phone showed "Charging Paused". I assumed it was due to a plug problem on the adapter. To solve that problem I moved the USB cord to a direct port on the computer but kept getting the "charging paused" message. Out of frustration, I moved the wireless charger back to the Samsung wall charger. Immediately the phone chimed and indicated that it was charging normally. So perhaps the power from the USB port is not high enough to consistently charge the phone through the wireless charger?

Hi, I have got my N910F rooted phone with stock firmware build

MMB29M.N910FXXS1DPH1

and E-motion kernel.

These days I've installed L Speed to get a faster phone but I'm noticing many lags..unfortunately..

I notice the kswapd0 and Android system often suck my cpu.

I found on the web that if you want fox the kswapd0 issue you need to use Semaphore kernel but I installed E-motion kernel because I'm using a Zerolemon large battery and this kernel can read the battery in a correct way.

Therefore I'm thinking to change the Rom for example but I don't know them..

I thought about Emotion Revolution that you can match with the Zerolemon kernel.

In my phone I have installed about 650 apps (Titanium finds 660apps).

What do you think? Can I solve my lags issues?

Thanks!!

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Azurren:
Sounds like you are suffering from the same symptoms I have. After over a years worth of usage and a couple "dirty" flashes to improve speed / stability my device was suffering from random reboots, slowdowns and lag spikes. In the end the only real solution is a factory reset :(

I've tried wiping cache, re flashing roms / kernels, trying different kernels (even though I need the zerolemon fix) all without any meaningful success

I'm unsure of the exact cause of the lag though. Even completely stock devices will experience lags / slowdowns after several years and the recommended fix from the manufactures themselves is a factory reset. This is only exasperated by flashing custom roms, kernels and patches which may introduce memory leaks, data leaks or other instability.

Personally I went back to a stock (debloated) Samsung based rom with Emotion's Zerolemon kernel, restored most of my apps and re-setup everything system related. It's now running like-new again.

Sadly there is no "quick fix" for this issue and, like me, your attempts to solve issues regarding speed / reliability by flashing various patches and fixes have come back to bite you.

So:

Backup userapps in Titanium (Do not backup / restore systemdata)

Perform a Nandroid Backup

Flash the rom of your choice (Do not flash the kernel yet)

Factory reset (Wipe system, Cache, Dalvik Cache in recovery)

Boot into android and perform the initial set-up

Flash the kernel in recovery (No need to wipe anything)

Boot back into android and begin restoring user apps and setting everything back up the way you like it.

I know "factory reset" probably isn't the answer you were hoping for but it's the only option I have found which fixes these issues for longer than a couple days..
[General Questions and Answers] Strait_Hopper:
Hey all,

Hoping to drawing on your collective wisdom to help me solve an issue I'm having with Tasker. Using the "Secure Settings" plugin, I currently use tasker to change my Location Mode between Battery Saving and High Accuracy when I open certain apps, such as Google Maps. This is largely working very well.

Unfortunately, Tasker doesn't seem to recognise one of my apps as a trigger for this profile, namely the Uber Driver app. I've also tried to use Uber Driver as a trigger for other profiles (for example, turning wifi on and off), and it doesn't trigger those profiles either. Interestingly, the Uber Rider app DOES work as a trigger.

Does anyone have any idea as to why Uber Driver is not triggering in Tasker and, if so, how I can resolve this?

Thanks!

Now that we have root, I am looking to debloat. Anyone know of apps that the firmware absolutely needs to function. For example if I remove mobile manager will I get several force closures?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] AWFRONT:
I would recommend that you do not attempt debloating the device for the time being as it is best to leave it until proper ROMs, mods etc.... are available for the phone. From my user experience, I think Mobile Manager is tightly integrated into the feature set but if you like you can try or wait for Android 7 as give n some user feedback on Android 7 on Zenfone 3 Deluxe or the Standard ZF3, most such features are either removed or moved deep inside the settings menu.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] Latoc:
Can't the app be disabled through classic means ? You could try disabling it first to test. I'm talking about mobile manager.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] AWFRONT:
You can of course use Titanium Backup or a dedicated App Freezer app or even ROM Toolbox to freeze/remove the app and check the result on your usage.

I have decided not to root my phone until Nougat update lands which hopefully will be over the next 2 weeks.

May be fixing these will result in impressive picture quality as hardware is capable just the processing which is average.

hey man first of all thank you very much for developing that app, its awwwwsssome and btw oneplus implemented camera2api in op3t poorly so that could be the reason ( if they were able to implement api2 correctly then there wouldve been 240 fps slow mo for op3t)
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] davebugyi:
I was able to reproduce every issue you've said on my 3T - OOS 4.0.3 - mainly incorrect EXIF data when using camera app <> stock.

Open Camera works okay for me (as it crashes the least), but when trying CFV-5 or Manual Camera then I was also able to reproduce the freezing/hanging/glitched preview screen.

Also a thing I noticed, that my rear camera takes brighter pictures in low light than the back, even tough the shutter is longer on the rear (probably incorrectly reported) - more info here.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] ast00:
I was able to reproduce all of the issues you mentioned on an OOS 4.0.3 based custom ROM, which I guess is kinda the same as stock.

This is a serious issue, you should definitely report this to Oneplus, since all of us seem to be affected by it.

Another thing: Higher ISO and lower shutter speed combo works as intended in the stock camera app. I suspect foul play by Oneplus.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] uudruid74:
I've experienced the lock screen issue before but not used the camera enough to really notice the other problems yet. I actually have Open Camera installed. Nice work and I love the fact that you open sourced it and didn't plague us with more ads. That is very appreciated!

I really miss the camera app I used on the OnePlus One but its just not compatible (or that's the rumor) with newer models. Maybe Ill flash it.

Definately keep trying on the feedback link. I know the spam-to-post thing is stupid. Have you tried the User Feedback app? Or is that only on the Beta?
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] kenhicg:
For what it's worth after I received my 3t I saw how slow the stock camera was and it's inability to stop motion very well and installed your app and it works quite well. I use your app as my default camera app.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] lapapunk:
Seriously? You defenetly confused with camera apps.

Stock oos camera is wonderful. For exemple, now I'm using as my daily rom, dedicated and unnoficial laos by nvertigo67 for 3t. And I can say, that it is the best rom by far.

Just a moment ago, I'm installed and tested opencamera, and can say anything good (if comparing it with stock one). So please, just try something else and you will see how is amazing, fast, smooth the stock one. Btw, there you can find snapdragon camera(introduce by [MENTION=4405529]nvertigo67[/MENTION] too), that have same perfomance and quality. I'm just prefer oos cam, becouse ui more comfortable.

Nothing personal. You making a good app (use it on my opo). Just whanted to say, that stock one is superb, with op bloobs. Even in laos build.

I'm really fed up with this situation. I like to try lots of custom ROMs but I'm basically stuck with using stock OOS just for the camera. What can we do to make this happen? Phone calls? Lots of emails? I'm willing to make a lot of fuss to pressure these mofos into fixing this POS API thing.

I won't support this company any longer that claims "We hear what customers say!". They don't. They only look forward to get their newest devices sold by hype. They're not as tiny as they make us believe. They're close to OPPO (even in the same building). They could fix this problem if they want but sadly it seems, that they simply don't.

No. Phoenix AEX has the OOS camera (not the port). It's exact. I've even used the new Camera2 for the OP5 on Phoenix. Try it. However, I'm using Sultan's SnapDragon Camera (works on LOS based ROMs and Phoenix since Phoenix auto-switches camera HALs), and it really beats any camera app I've tried in quality ... there are setting to tweak ... quality set to high, raised contrast a step or two up, sharpness a step up, saturation a step down, but ... its my new default.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] redsmith:
Nope. That's not what we are talking about here. There isn't one single ROM that has Camera2 API working properly and by that I mean full control over manual modes and RAW (DNG) saving. This is OnePlus's responsibility.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] MickyFoley:
[MENTION=3939019]redsmith[/MENTION] Exactly. Neither in official ROM it's working. Just wanted to add this :).

[MENTION=5880917]uudruid74[/MENTION]: Without proper Camera2 API implementation, there are several functions missing, like redsmith stated. One of the biggest flaws are HDR (see 1st post) and RAW DNG support. This can't work without it. This is a major bug and they simply ignore it.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] uudruid74:
HDR and DNG are working fine for everything except the OOS camera. All 3rd party apps work, including OpenCamera, although OpenCamera crashes a lot.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] MickyFoley:
[MENTION=5880917]uudruid74[/MENTION]: Take camera app XYZ of your preference. Cover the back of your phone and read the values, like ISO. Every app will max. 799 and even other values are bugged. Have you ever read the statement of the developer of Open Camera? Same LineageOS version on my LG G4 and all is working perfectly. Just for example. Please, don't post wrong things. Thanks.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] uudruid74:
Not sure what you mean by full control. Which settings don't work?

Are you sure dng won't work? When doesn't it work? Works for me

---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

Yes, ISO maxes at 799. Please respond to HDR and DNG claims?
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] redsmith:
I'll respond to DNG claim.

Take stock OOS camera app (on Oxygen OS, not on any custom rom). Change to manual mode and activate RAW. Set shutter speed to 5 seconds or more. Take the picture. You will notice it takes exactly 5 seconds to take the picture and save the DNG.

Now, try any camera in a custom ROM (you can even try OOS camera port). Activate RAW. Go to manual mode. Set shutter speed to 5 seconds or more. Take the picture. You will notice it takes at least double the time to take the picture and save the DNG, which is a bummer for long exposure times. And as MickyFoley points out, ISO maxes out at 799.

This is not to mention that the only camera that consistently works (to an extent) is Camera FV-5. All the other apps (Manual Camera, ProShot, OpenCamera, Footej) crap out when manipulating shutter speed. This is a clear indicator that HAL3 is borked and not properly implemented.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] MickyFoley:
Real HDR photos are made via different ISO values and shutter times. So if you're at Camera2 and want to make - for example - a HDR RAW photo: You can't, because values are maxed out at 799 and shutter at 1/16,7s. Means: RAW HDR photos are not working because of this bug. And like I said: This is just an example.

OnePlus bugged it, knew and knows it and won't do a single bit to fix it.
