Yep and Nokia support says that they hope IT Will be adressed in future updates. Buy i think not. If i have a chance to trade this for a Moto G6 plus with somebody. I Will do that.

And where did you get this apk?

Apk site, here you can download camera app
https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=Nokia

Apparently there's a fix for that
Simply disable the location in the camera settings. Im not using my 6.1 right now but can someone confirm either way that this works?

which version is the best to use with Nokia 6.1? any bugs to notice?

T-Mobile Dash Camera APP?!?!?!?!

You know i been wondering... the camera application in our phone is after all a program that runs just like any other program in our phone right? thus being said... with all these applications made for the dash why has anyone yet to make an upgrade for the camera app? even tho the application is set to manufactures default settings so was the T-Mobile rom settings, but people were able to upgrade roms so why is it that we cant upgrade the camera app? maybe there is someone smart enough out there to think of this app. i mean all in all it would be nice to have some extra effects options or a brightness option you know... something to that effect would be a cool thing to have.
There are many Camera applications, I personally use the "stock" camera in conjunction with Cool Camera

yeah its kinda screwed up this app... maybe if you provide the settings you have set on your phone that way i can try to set the same thing on mine and then see if it will work or maybe you can guide me to a website that has more then one camera app on it that way i have a few apps to choose from cause you mentioned there was more then one. thanks so much.

Instagram problem, photo getting zoomed in after snapping

Im a huge Instagram user and I've been having a problem when snapping photos using Instagram.
Whenever I snap a picture, the photo will be cropped off 1/2 in on each sides thus ruining the composition. There are no issues on video though/
I'm currently on Omega v18 (stock rom based) and Im not sure if it's a ROM-specific problem or just issues of IG with the Note 2.
Can anyone else try this and see if after snapping a photo the final photo will get smaller or like zoomed in than whats showing in the viewfinder prior to snapping.
Thanks.
4.1 update doesny fix it.
Anyone kind enough to check? Im pretty sure most of you have Instagrams :/
No one has instagram to test this out?
No issues here, see.

Hi Chobie,
I have the same problem as you example. I took a pic of an apple, fit it into the whole pic and then when i snap, the end result is not what was seen before i snap. It sort of zoom in/cropped the photo such that you dont see the whole apple & the sides have been cut off. I'm also using Note 2 & i dont know when did this problem occurs. I searched all over the internet but it seems that no one is having that problem. My sister is using S4 but she doesnt have this problem.
Did you manage to fix it? I uninstall and install back the app, no help at all

Thanks. Nope still no fix for it. I even reverted back to stock ROM to see if it's a ROM problem but it produces the same problem.
I've reported bug to instagram's website so you can probably report it as well to escalate the problem.
Hi,
Yup. I emailed instagram. Hopefully they can advise..

Is that the exact composition and frame of the photo before you took it?

Ugh. That's weird. I wonder what's wrong...
Happening to me as well. The only solution I could find was to disable the option to "Use Instagram's advanced camera" under "Advanced features". This way it uses the phones camera and then asks you to crop the photo on your own.
I hope they fix it soon.

I have the same problem. Samsung note 4. Stock Android OS. Instagram and an app called "paper camera" both have this issue.
I have the same problem too. I take a pic & it comes out all zoomed. I emailed IG but still no response. Anyone know how to fix camera zoom bug? I have S5
I have the same problem. Picture is zoomed after a picture is taken. Very frustrating. Clearing app data repairs the issued for just a while. Reported a problem to Instagram via in app feature. No response. I'm using Sony Z5, Android 7.0
9 Aug: Updated to Android 7.1.1. The problem still exists in Instagram. Very dissapointed. What's interesting - problem does not exist with a front camera. Has anybody found a solution?
Hey
The same things happening to my phone (Smasung S6) and I came to Google hoping to find a solution. It hasn't always been like this but now it won't go back and it only happens to instagram :/

I'm having this problem with Samsung Note8. Contacted Instagram, but these guys are not responding. That's a shame because I used Instagram frequently in the past.

Turn flashlight together with Camera

Hi guys,
sometime ago i noticed that the option to turn on the flashlight while the camera is on does not exist anymore!!
i think it was after the last update, but does somebody know how to enable it back? this was very helpful for me..
thanks!!

I bought "a better camera" for this very reason.
Not as good as the stock cam but better when you need the flash.
Why other cams do not allow the flash option is baffling

Then You have to make a complaint to Nokia support. And waitt for Android Pie, maybe then it will be over i hope.they dont have any other solutions. Maybe you can use open camera.

After Samsung update today, Gcam stopped working????

Hi,
For some reason, got an update from samsung this morning, latest One UI 2.5.
After updating my Gcam stopped working, tried several different apps but
still stops and closes when opened. Any ideas???
Ken
That's a little concerning. Can you download Camera2 API Probe from the Play store and see if the camera still supports RAW capture?
Also try this specific gcam to see if it works for you https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/NGCam_7.4.104-v1.4_snapcam.apk

Thanks, I'll try it.

Please download the Camera API2 Probe app and take a screenshot of what it says. I've attached what mine says and I'm still on the July release before OneUI 2.5.

Strange, your screenshot looks like mine so camera api2 hasn't changed? Hmm, how about trying a gcam version that doesn't work for me on the old update.
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/MGC_7.4_v1.0f_TlnNeun.apk
Ok,
Thanks, I'll try it tomorrow. I've been trying different developers versions to see if I get lucky.
Samsung must have done something in the 2.5 update to OneUi that caused it for me.

Haha yeah I've been trying to get people on that reddit thread to try things as well. It seems a person in the Note 20 Ultra thread confirmed this version works. Can you try? https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/HyperCam-RaizenA-10.apk
Ok,
I'll try
Ok,
Tried HyperCam, it actually opened for a while, I went into setting to
change a few things and bam, closed and never opened after that!!!

Lol clearing data for the app should get it working again. Bigger question though is do you remember which options you changed that broke it?
Hi,
Nope, maybe reinstall later and try again,

So I tried Hypercam. When I switched to the telephoto it completed crashed. Wipe data and got everything back. Front-facing camera just hangs.
I spent a good amount of time yesterday trying different GCam versions. Some partially worked, namely some HyperCam versions and TrCamera versions. Couldn't seem to get the front camera working on any versions, however. No matter what RAW and Viewfinder format I chose, the front camera would either hang, or cause the app to crash. I rooted through as many settings as I could think to change around to get the front camera working, but nothing was working for me. So I would imagine that the versions that are closing immediately may have some sort of front camera configuration that is now not playing nice after the 2.5 update.
Definitely very strange, hoping a dev can nail this down, because I have been trying to use Samsung's camera app and, boy it's just not comparable to GCam, especially the front camera.

That's actually very helpful. Can you guys download the Camera API2 Probe app and post screenshots of what it says for Camera ID 1 and ID 3? This is mine for my Camera ID 1 on the older build.

I have attached the camera info.
It looks like the front facing camera is not giving RAW.
Also since I didn't mention it previously I am using a Snapdragon USA unlocked S20

Looks like both those IDs on the update don't allow RAW capture. That must be part of the problem. Do you know if it is fixable?

Thanks guys. Super useful info. I don't know if it's fixable but I'm passing the info to the gcam testing group that I'm in so hopefully one of the devs will see and know what to do about it.
