Which device is this? Focus control has been a pretty basic API element since v1. Unless the device is reporting that it has a fixed lens erroneously, that is super weird.
Having said that, the Camera subsystem is most certainly subpar on Android. It is crash prone, only recovering after a full system reset, which makes developing anything novel a giant pain in the ass. It also is full of random bullshit even if you're using Google's anointed, in-house devices. I remember an update suddenly randomly yielding frame rate capability values multiplied by 1000, chaos monkey style. Code ends up being littered with "If this bullshit device on this bullshit version, then...". It's a gigantic waste of time.
And then as Google started trying to differentiate their own devices with exclusive imaging features, things really started going off the rails.
