Critical Fixes

Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro 1× Photo Saving

Fixed an issue where photos captured at 1× zoom could fail to save to MediaStore or disappear after capture. Photos captured at 5× and 10× could occasionally save successfully.

Root Cause

The GCAM HDR+ post-processing pipeline was aborting during FinishShot because of an unhandled exception:

IllegalStateException:
Unable to open Flare Removal model asset file
(ceftazidime_*.uncompressed)

The missing asset was requested by the Pixel 10 / Pixel 10 Pro hardware profile when processing wide-lens captures.

Fixes Applied

  • Added a fail-safe return inside mkm.j to prevent FinishShot from being aborted by flare-removal processing.

  • Updated the ejn device profiles for:

    • Pixel 10 (Blake)
    • Pixel 10 Pro (Frankel)
  • Disabled:

    • camera.ceftazidime_enabled
    • camera.decepticon_enabled
  • Cleared references to missing uncompressed assets.

  • Added runtime overrides forcing the following flags to false:

    • camera.ceftazidime
    • camera.decepticon
    • camera.use_eclipse
  • Added sensor stream fallbacks for binned RAW dimensions:

    • 0x7e0
    • 0x5e8
  • Added protection against NullPointerException when telephoto stream pointers are unavailable.
