Hi!
I've an a52s with lineageOS 21. I can't have a better resolution than 4624x3468 even if this device claims a 64MP camera. Is it because of those third parties limitations?
Thanks a lot.

Hey, I have a samsung with a similar 'issue' and it comes down to how it was implemented by samsung. Even their pro mode does not offer the high resolution that was advertised so the camera api developers get access to is probably limited to the pixel binned lower mp version of that camera.

Wow??? So it pretends to have a 64MP camera but don't? Isn't it abusive?

These are likely quad bayer formats. Whilst Open Camera doesn't yet support these, this also requires the device to expose quad bayer to third party camera applications, and my Galaxy S24+ at least doesn't seem to support this yet.
Also remember that "more megapixels" doesn't necessarily mean better quality - you're still getting the benefit of the camera's quality.

I have an A52s, It DOES have a 64M camera!

the correct camera icon is RED, in case of confusion..:)
set 64M , and 3:4 result is 9248 x 6936 = 64 meg..
blame samsung for not enabling 3rd party drivers..
lot of expensive cam apps out there, but no promise they work!!
