I installed it since Oreo, but it works fine, at least for me.

Yeah. But there is a simple workaround. Switch to video mode and then switch back to camera mode. For now that seems to be working for me.

Even this is not working. What version of gcam are you using? And can you link it please?

Did you guys perform a reset from the settings after updating? Because I did and after that the method that uses setprop to enable camera 2 API doesn't work anymore. Do you know a solution? Thanks a lot.

Set camera resolution to 9mp. Works for me on gcam version 6. As for front cam green tint need to use gcam version 5.

You just need to add camera2api line via terminal and save it that's all No need for tools or installing anything.

At the mean time almoat everything is giving green tint or Focus Issue, so I'll wait

I have tried these two lines using an adb shell from twrp without being rooted and they didn't work.

setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1
setprop persist.camera.eis.enable 1

To confirm can you tell me which lines you used?

EDIT:
I think i solved it. I went into recovery. Using adb pull and push commands i edited the persistent_properties found in /data/property. I copied and pasted a random line and changed it into the actual line to enable camera2api. Also i changed the permission of the file after pushing it using "chmod 600 [file]". Now Manual Camera Compatibility shows all green marks.

I used a terminal app from the store and just added the lines there with SU permissions, worked just fine, although i do have root

V8.3 - https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/...f/GCam-5.1.018-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.3b1.apk

Switch to video mode. Wait till it sets in at the perfect focus point. Then switch to camera.

Yes this works. But compared to Arnova's V8.3b, none of the newer mods (Including Arnova's latest version - 6.xx) seems to produce crispier images as it used to do before. I agree that the older app took too long to process the images. But the reduction in quality is pretty evident. I'd still stick with the older version.
