Camera 1080p/60fps Lineage OS

[xdabitch]

Hi All,

I got tired of waiting for HTC to update my U11 that was still on Android 8.0 so i came back on beloved XDA after a few years of desertion (first phone i flashed was HTC Magic, almost 10 years ago) and installed Lineage OS 16 on this U11.

It all works great, thanks to developpers, except that i cannot record at 1080p/60fps any more. The google camera app doesn't have the option, and the HTC camera crashed when i select 60fps.

Is this a known issue of the rom or is there a fix ?

Thanks !

Using a LOS based Pie rom, a developer suggests using this version, I just tested it and all functionality seems to be working with this version

Thank you ! For some weird reason, i wasn't able to install the recommended app. At the end of the install i'd get the message "App not installed". I tried a few more and the only one that worked so far is the Gcam Lite 6.1, which does record in [email protected] fps !!
I suspect the MGC camera apks try to update my actual install of Google camera and it fails to do so, as the Gcam lite installs a new one. I tried to uninstall the Google camera but i guess i would need to root the phone for this ?

That's correct, you would need to uninstall gcam completely for the recommended version to work.
If your current install came with your rom, and that's what it sounds like, it's probably a system app, and can only be removed with root
