This is my review of the 5.90, installed over the 5.81 in my Xperia Z4 with MROM.
- What's kind of black magic you used to code the autofocus ? It work better than the original now, high precision and in less than 1 second to detect the distance.... HUGE improvement !!!
- Contrast is finally fixed and now it work like the original and maybe better in certain condition of light.
- Noise canceling finally work!
- Videocamera works just like the 5.81, I don't notice improvements here.
- ISO settings is now on-screen, very easy to set.
Manual focus is still missing, but hey, the Autofocus is magic now :laugh:
4K UHD video recording don't work, the app freeze. It work only with the specific camera addon like the original Z4.
EDIT: front camera don't work, black screen
Some photo samples:
ISO 50 | 20.7 mpx
ISO 200 | 20.7 mpx | zoom 1.7x | Flash light - very high contrast scene
Overall I'm very satisfied.
I really love your work, and thank you so much for this final release!
EDIT:
Front camera don't work, black screen, i forgot to test it. I don't take selfies at all XD But yeah, this is a problem.

Unlocking manual focus was causing problems and some other improvements / changes...
Well basically it was never designed to work with the Z4 - keep in mind that it is a XZ2 camera apk, no developer here was even thing about make this app working on the Xperia Z4/5/XZ...
But you can fix front camera. (Or maybe I can on Sunday...)
Nevertheless here comes the way to fix it...
Problem: Front Camera isn't working because your Z4 only providing a max resolution of 5mp in the front mode.
Required: Something like TickleMyAndroid, Notepad++
1. set up ticklemyandroid, install framework.apk
2. decompile
3. forget about the smali files
4. go to the array xml in res/values
5. search for the line with the unsupported front camera value
6. copy just the value
7. use the search in files function from notepad++
8. Now delete the lines with the unsupported lines
in the found files
9. Recompile
10. Test
11. share
12. now you have made the first step as developing
13. be proud
14. Continue with get reading basic knowledge
15. ... fail - you might be failing often...
well that is just the way how life is sometime,
16. Keep up trying / reading / asking / learning

I reverted back to "5.90 XZ" version on my Z4, because the "Z4/Z5" version suddenly went crazy, ISO and EV don't work as they should.
Like this:
ISO 50 | EV +1

It looks like the ISO is totally broken.
EDIT: suddenly even the XZ version also broke. I don't know what's wrong, but on my firmware, MROM v3.1, something don't work with these releases. Maybe I should install the official firmware... but not now. LineageOS is flopped for Z4 and Z5 series, so I have no choice

- chinmoy32, without you this maybe never get happen. Thanks a lot my friend.

- Jozinek for system dump (XZ)
- zezadas
- mkdmc
- shehabskull15RCv1.2 is ready. 4K UHD is working, macro and infinity only works in auto mode for now. Just stay tuned, I am working on it.12
Oreo Versions for XZ will be based on Oreo XZs, but atleast before I make a final decision in this case, I will testing what base is to prefer.
More quality? Well on the software side I can only do a few things to improve settings. The limit is the max capability of the camera hardware.
Plans for Update's
- There will be a Version 5.50 Final for Nougat
- Next is Oreo ("Version 6") which will initially released with already latest possible base.
Future Development for Z4 / Z5
- I will try to upgrading the base to latest nougat (I will take a fresh stock apk, rewrite than from Zero, with documentation)
- Finally if I implement a new feature to Oreo base, I will try to add the same one for Nougat Z4/Z5.
So the development will getting slower for Z4/Z5, but of course I won't drop the support completely.11RCv2.5
- Apk seems ready - Testing already
- Media Profiles and Codec config is in a fine tune process
- MF works nice
- Rewrote Bitmaps to aRGB 8888, but it is not complete ( over 6000 Smali Files and I have to find all media process related files, check them and maybe modify them )
- Shutter Speed still not working
RCv2.5 will be provided as Updater and as complete Version.
Bug fixes will be developed fast as possible, but RCv3.0 will be needing more time than updates before. Since unlock is done, focus will be set up to improve quality.
And least but most important : I will test and fine tune RCv2.5, until it is really ready.10
My friend, you can call it 'under active development' again.
And Xnext WalkMan... I don't know how many hours I already put in this project. But I am never totally happy with it :laugh:
