See that for front camera we dont show face detection circles even though the HAL/Gecko process these events

Can we reproduce this on Flame?
Keywords: qawanted
No. Flame front camera does have face tracking because the HW doesn't support focus regions.

I meant Flame front DOES NOT support face tracking
If any camera support both face tracking + focus regions the feature will be available automatically
If Face Detection and Focus regions are both available, face tracking will be enabled automatically. Otherwise it is disabled. 

Bhargav: Can you confirm if QRD supports focus regions on front camera?
Flags: needinfo?(bhargavg1)
I don't have a QRD device but my guess is that either face tracking or focus regions are not available for the front camera so the feature is not available.
On flame we could paint the circles around the faces but we would not be able to focus on them. It would be misleading for the user.

Hema -- we confirmed that 8x10 QRD has fixed focus sensor so it won't have face detection circles. We are trying to verify on 8926.
On 8x26 targets the front camera focus mode is fixed and so focus region in not supported.
