Hello,
Problem:
My Meizu MX3 (runs Flyme os 3 based on android 4.2.2) has preset "Camera" in the DIRECTORY_DCIM environment variable. Most of the camera apps respect this setting and they are saving photos in the Camera instead of the DCIM. This causes problems with automatic syncing, because photos are obviously expected to be in the DCIM.
Partial solutions:
I tried symlinking the two dirs, but as far as i know it is not possible in the FUSE used since the 4.2.2.
mount -o bind led to the duplicity in the gallery app and i don't consider it too "clean" solution.
I ended up with modifying source of Focal open source camera not to read DIRECTORY_DCIM env var, but rather just to save the picture into the DCIM directly.
Is there a way to change this variable on boot? I don't want to use any 3rd party apps for simple things like this. Editing init.rc led to nothing, because it is always replaced by the default one from the ramdisk.
Thanks in advance.
