Hi, 
I want to horizontally flip the preview stream, I tried setRotation = -1F it succesfully worked in my older device running on api 22 but in newer devices (mine api 33) its not working. How can I do that . Thanks

Try setting it to COMPATIBLE mode which will use TextureView under the hood. Only TextureView can rotate / flip the preview.  SurfaceView can't do that. 
        mPreviewView.setImplementationMode(PreviewView.ImplementationMode.COMPATIBLE);

BTW, I guess you want to invoke setScaleX(-1f) to flip the preview.
