Google Camera does not work ("Camera has stopped") about treble_experimentations

[jamuir]

I deleted two files from the system image and Google Camera started to work (and the sony green-screen issue also went away!). This was suggested in the following XDA post:

https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69843893&postcount=184

$ adb root
$ adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system
$ adb shell stop
$ adb shell rm /system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.xml 
$ adb shell rm /system/framework/com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.jar
$ adb reboot

Thanks for this. I was having this problem in a ROM and this did the trick.

it seems like Google Camera is looking for certain values in com.google.nexus.experimental2016.jar, but they are missing.

[jamuir]

the jar itself may be fine. it is actually the native method nativeGetTagFromKeyLocal() that fails.

the key/string com.google.nexus.experimental2016.3a.hybrid_ae_enable comes from the jar:

$ adb pull /system/framework/com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.jar
/system/framework/com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.jar: 1 file pulled. 0.6 MB/s (2161 bytes in 0.003s)
$ unzip -p com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.jar | strings | grep hybrid
5com.google.nexus.experimental2016.3a.hybrid_ae_enable

Note that Google Camera still crashes in permissive-mode.

[jamuir]

Yes, I am using Google Camera from OpenGApps in my GSI.

You can share file Google Camera from OpenGapps.

@4PERTURE Hi, I am trying to do adb shell stop from terminal emulator as stop and that command blacks the phone out. I don't know what stop does, but I can't seem to delete /system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.xml or /system/framework/com.google.android.camera.experimental2016.jar as it says device or resource busy. Any ideas?

[saravanabalagi]

Workaround: I rebooted the phone in recovery mode and deleted those two files. Gcam's working now

PS: But I would still want to know what stop does.
