How do I use the focus effect on the duo camera? Since Google specifically mentions the duo camera I assume this is possible on the GPe too.

You can use it normally, the same way you use it with Sense

How do I change the focus? I only have the standard Google camera app.

After capturing photo with normal camera app go to edit. Their you will find original HTC editor, which is in the M8 non GPE. If not than you might have to clear defaults of the stock editor so you will have option to choose editor.

No HTC editor. Is it possible to download this somewhere?

Don't know. I actually don't own M8. You should check source video. May be it will help you.

Actually it did help me, I had to click edit form the camera, not from the Photos app. Pretty obvious now when I think about it.

Agreed, it's obvious after the fact. What about if you 'share' the file from the stock Photos app? A list of programs generally appears. Is one of them the HTC Photo Edit app that could then be selected? I often use the 'share' button to access Snapseed and VSCO editors.

I'd check myself but my phone hasn't arrived yet.

Nope, not a trace of HTC Photo Edit anywhere but in edit in the camera app...

Just following up on this: when I use QuickPic to view the photo and then select 'Edit' from the menu, I DO get the option to select HTC Photo Edit. Unfortunately, when I do select it, the app crashes. So, no joy there.
