Hi! I purchased my Toshiba Thrive 2 weeks ago, and everything works perfectly. I'm happy with it. The only problem I have is with the camera, i'm having problems with the efficiency of my actual camera app.
I'm searching for a better camera app, so I can take advantage of all the potential that brings me the camera's resolution.
Hope you guys help me to find a better one.
P.S: I speak spanish, not english. So don't kill me. :C
Check out Camera ZOOM FX.

Just got this on sale at the Google Play market for $.49 Seems to work nicely on my Thrive.

yea i have to agree camera zoom is definitely the best
Every time I try to use the Instagram front camera, my whole phone just turns off and reboots. It's very disappointing and after a little bit of searching, I couldn't find an answer. My native camera works it's just instagram. I've heard people tell people to use their native camera to take a picture and upload it that way but that isn't really a fix to the instagram problem.
I was hoping someone here might have an answer for my problem.

Isn't there a way to use your native camera within Instagram? In the options somewhere, advanced camera or something.
I know that but i`d rather have instagram`s camera in use. is there any way to fix it?
Judging from the fact that there are constantly new posts every few days it seems about instagram and cam issues, I'd have to guess, no.

Recently I got Snapchat and Instagram, when I use their built in camera, the quality is severely reduced. It looks like a 5 MP camera. But using stock camera app (or any camera app) the quality is great. The problem is with apps that do more than take pictures.. Here's two photos so you get an idea. Anyone else have these issues or know a fix?
I haven't noticed any particular image quality problems on my G3 with those apps. I do know that Snapchat saves images in same resolution as your screen, so in the G3's case: 2560x1440

I don't know if you can see from the pictures, but I don't get anywhere near that, or HD for that matter. You wouldn't happen to know a fix?
Instagram reduces filesize, so, they probably do this directly from the camera app.

I'm aware all apps reduce file size, but the images I capture are no where near up to par to a decent standard. The image quality with Snapchat on my HTC M8 was great, but on the G3 it's horrible
I'm having the same problem you are. I reinstalled Snapchat and the problem was still there. I even tried a camera mod (tweaks media_profiles) to no avail. It's a frustrating problem especially when I see my friends' high quality snapchat pictures and while mine are blurry.
Solution!
I finally figured out what was causing this, it somehow just came to me. All you have to do is hide the navigation bar in Snapchat (or any other app you're experiencing this in) and viola, clear pictures! Go to settings->display->home touch buttons. Hope this helps!

So it just looked blurry on your end until you removed the nav bar and on others' phones it looked fine even before your fix?
No it would be blurry to the people I snapchatted as well. I think it has to do with the fact that snapchat captures the image as a "screenshot" of what appears on the screen rather than the raw image from the camera.

Oh my, thank you so much man! I could finally Snapchat friends without feeling embarrassed, you're the best!
It bothered me so much before. Glad I could help!
My pictures are definitely better in snapchat after hiding home buttons

Hello,
I just received my Oneplus 5T and noticed that while using snapchat the camera view seems to be heavily zoomed in. I wonder if there is a fix for this as it makes taking pictures more difficult and pretty annoying.
Thanks.
same issue here
Same here, what a craptastic app.
This issue was also in a community forum, a oneplus member said it would be fixed in a software update/it's a bug with oxygen os. I think it's due to the 18:9 aspect ratio, go to the camera app and select that ratio and it just zooms in on the 4:3. I think the same is happening with snapchat.
Yep. I've also reported it to Snapchat as well. (shrug).

Was that guy really an OnePlus employee? I didn't see any real verified sign in their profile. That or I just haven't used OnePlus forums enough to know.

Also noticed it happens in Instagram. Maybe I owe a snapchat an apology.
Snapchat and all other 3rd party camera apps are using 18:9 camera ratio and apparently Oxygen OS Camera isn't optimised well for the 18:9 ratio. It just zooms and crops in the pic. Try changing the ratio from 4:3 to 18:9 in the default camera app, you will get same result as Snapchat, both in front as well as rear camera. This is a major system bug in Oxygen OS.
OnePlus has said that they're releasing an update in early December that will bring major improvements to the camera. Hope that update fixes this issue too otherwise this is a major deal breaker.
Another camera disappointment by OnePlus.

Yep, mine is back in the box until a camera update arrives, then I will see if it's worth keeping or selling. Until then, I am breaking the Note 8 back out.
how good is snapchat on OnePlus 5T
Hi, I noticed that android phones have a tendency to lag whenever a snapchat video is taken. It can be seen particularly when an iPhone is used to view the android's snap. I was wondering if this is the same if the video is taken by a oneplus 5t?
Such an annoying bug! Absolutely hate this bug. I hold the phone so far away yet it's as though I'm holding the phone right near my face

Yep it's a known issue. Oneolus has fixed it on their end and all that Is left is for Snapchat it fix it. They are working togethor
Snapchat announced that the want to improve the Android experience by rebuilding the app.
Currently the android snapchat is just a dirty copy of iOS snapchat which sucks my battery really hard.
The problem is fixed now isn't it.

I am also on the latest softwares. Both the OOS and Snapchat version. But it is still the same, can you post comparisons between normal camera app pictures and Snapchat pictures?
Snap and normal camera app. Oos 4.7.5

The Problem of zoomed in photos is with Front cam not the rear one
Hi! i dont know if is my phone that is broken or me, i dont know. When you open the instagram camera, the quality is ok, but when you do a photo, it loses a lot of quality, like if it wad blurry. Can someone help me?
The real reason Snapchat photos taken on Android phones look terrible
Android phones often have similar or better cameras than iPhones. But on Snapchat, it’s not even close. Here's why.

It says snapchat but it's actually true for instagram and whatsapp as well

try update Instagram to latest version
I don't know exactly why that happens.. maybe it's a compatibility issue.
But the solution to that is: you have to take the pictures with your standard camera app, then upload it to Instagram. This way you will preserve your picture quality. ♥

idk if its new to you but taking pictures from third party apps (whatsapp, office, facebook etc...) always end up crappier than the camera app
Its actually because these apps compress image thats why, No worry.
