Just confirmed that HDR appears correctly on Flame v2.2 (w/ memlimit of 1024MB):

Depending on the platform, HDR support can be exposed in different ways. Flame exposes HDR in KEY_SUPPORTED_SCENE_MODES; the Nexus 5L does not.

(Just looking through the source for the Nexus 5 L build -- I don't see any references to "HDR" in the camera code.)

I don't see HDR in Flame 2.2. Does this have something to do with memory settings? We always use 319MB.

I recall NOT seeing this option for a long time so I thought it was intentionally removed.

That's correct: Flame w/ 319MB doesn't have enough memory to support HDR. You need to configure your device for at least 512MB (I used 1024MB) to enable HDR.

Thanks for the info. I'm adding keyword to exclude this in our queries since we don't have a Nexus 5 device and this bug is exclusive to it.

Hi Viral,
Could you help to check this issue? Is this related to build script?
Thanks!

Hi Hayden,

Could you please help to check the HDR function in camera?
Thank you :)

HDR function was exposed by Camera HAL as a scene mode in CameraParameters but this mode is removed from HAL3 (the one we used on Nexus 5 L) so we're not able to take HDR image anymore.
