Hm, when the button is off, everything should be at its defaults, so behaviour of AD apps should not be affected.
However, toggling either way kills the (droid) camera service, I can imagine that if that happens while AD is running it may have such an effect.
Can you test whether restarting AD fixes Open Camera?
Tested OK: restarting the AD service fixed the issue with the Open Camera. FYI, I have set it to use Camera API 2 (I do not even know does it make any difference with SFOS).
Opened the native camera application and the buttons were still there. Same for the Advanced Camera.
Thanks, I’ll update the package description noting this in the hopes people will read it 
I have a bug report of the button/service not working any more after updating to 4.5.0.21.
As I can’t test on a 4.5 X10iii device, can users of this please aid in debugging?
Thanks.
No problem on my X10iii device.
10 III, 4.5.0.21 → works. <3
Works for me just fine under 4.5.0.21.
Good to know, thanks.
Funny small thing, the camera switching icons are correct in the default camera, but in Advanced Camera the wide angle is under icon from the zoom camera, and vice versa.
Noticed that too, but I guess that’s an AC issue, nothing I can do in this hack here.
I wonder why all images with the wide-angle camera (0.6) get tinted yellow?
Am I the only one affected by this phenomenon?
With auto white balance it does that. With fixed, no problem. I blame the optics.
Sorry, but I don’t follow. I use the Jolla photo app and I can’t find any white balance options.
Okay, you may want to try with Advanced Camera, what is your experience with auto vs fixed white balance (or maybe presets are the right word here).
For me, it makes no difference I get this yellow tint also with AC.
Okay, after some testing on my 10 III my experience stays the same. On same lighting with preset/fixed WB the tint is exactly the same. Just with AWB the wide lens is the most prone to pumping eg. from yellow to blue and back.
Works like a charm, thanks Nephros!
Works great with 4.5.0.21, thank you for making this little thing!
Now it looks like I’ll have to implement camera switching to Whisperfish…
If i open the camera in signal (android) and try to switch the camera it stays black. Dont really think it relates to the patch, but has anyone the same problem?
in videocalls it seems unreliable as well…
Just stumbled on to this in Chum, I had no idea that all the cameras are now usable on 10III. Thank you @nephros !
