Default Pixel Camera finally works again on GrapheneOS — and no downgrade is needed

TL;DR
  • A missing font was causing the Pixel Camera app to crash on de-Google’ed operating systems, such as GrapheneOS. Users had to downgrade to an older release of the camera app to use it again.
  • To fix the issue, users on GrapheneOS build v2025102300 and older can install the GmsCompatLib app v100 from the GrapheneOS store.
  • A future GrapheneOS build (v2025102600) will include the Pixel Camera app fix natively, eliminating the need for extra installation.
Last week, the Pixel Camera app began crashing on de-Googled aftermarket OS solutions, such as GrapheneOS. If users didn’t have Google Play Services on their device, the Pixel Camera app would either crash or refuse to start. As it turns out, the actual issue was a missing font. Users could roll back to older versions of the Pixel Camera app, but now, the fix is here for GrapheneOS users.
