S22 ultra here, app runs but none of the cameras work.

How did you install the split APK? It works fine and can record 720p and 4K at 24, 25 and 30fps on my realme 11 pro. Your S22 Ultra should be much more powerful in comparison.

I used the nodpi version on apkmirror. It's not that the app doesn't run, it launches just fine. It's that it doesn't appear to be able to access the cameras, it's just a black screen and if I try to record then it crashes.

Also, I just tested it with the apkm via SAI from f-droid to make sure it wasn't an issue with the nodpi version; and I got the same result. The UI and everything loads fine, there just isn't a camera preview and it crashes if I press the record button.

Are you by chance on the exynos version of s22 ultra?

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Nope, CPU-Z says it's a Snapdragon 8. It's a factory-unlocked US model on verizon, and I doubt a EU/ROW phone would support Verizon frequencies (it used to be that phones in the US had to be made for carrier-specific bands, but that might have changed with LTE), but I used CPU-Z just to double check.

Have you checked it has all the permissions required?

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I gave it all the permissions it said it needed.

[–] ma11en@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I've just tried on my S22 Ultra and working fine from this download

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 2 points 4 months ago

I dunno, didn't work for me.

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

Looks like it works fine on Pixel 6 too.
