Well i know there are lot of threats on this topic but i want to ask each and everybody for a while that is it possible to make a camera app similar to that of sense camera.
i will explain how. the sense camera has a great working on focusing the particular area on the screen. i mean for example you want click a flower then in sense camera app you just have to put your hand on the screen and it will tell the camera sensor to zoom on that particular level.
now this functionality is sort of supported by MIUI camera. but not a single app on the play store ever able come at par with the sense camera app. i tried and flashed almost all the apps available from marked, but in vain they failed. the image processing quality of sense app is also much better.
will we ever able to get like that kind of camera app for out willy. still in know that the sense framework is closed source but still getting the same fun of 2.3.7 will a great add on.
Impossible to have sense like camera on gb.Lgcamera can focus things decently.
I will check it out and will report

because sense camera libs that were created for willy.Plus sense camera requires sense framework to work with which is almost impossible to port.HTC has integrated a lot of things within framework unlike using an apk separately for some purpose.
Ohk

You know i been wondering... the camera application in our phone is after all a program that runs just like any other program in our phone right? thus being said... with all these applications made for the dash why has anyone yet to make an upgrade for the camera app? even tho the application is set to manufactures default settings so was the T-Mobile rom settings, but people were able to upgrade roms so why is it that we cant upgrade the camera app? maybe there is someone smart enough out there to think of this app. i mean all in all it would be nice to have some extra effects options or a brightness option you know... something to that effect would be a cool thing to have.
There are many Camera applications, I personally use the "stock" camera in conjunction with Cool Camera

yeah its kinda screwed up this app... maybe if you provide the settings you have set on your phone that way i can try to set the same thing on mine and then see if it will work or maybe you can guide me to a website that has more then one camera app on it that way i have a few apps to choose from cause you mentioned there was more then one. thanks so much.
while cm7 and other AOSP roms can, either directly, in display brightness settings, or through apps (screen filter, Moon + reader etc)? The same apps don't work with the softkeys in sense.
Am currently on cm7, mainly because of the darn softkeys blinding me while reading or watching vids.
And is there a camera app for cm7 that does auto focus, like the HTC camera app? And how about internet pass-through?
It seems I need a combination of both types of Roms!
Have you tried the Miui Camera? I was using it with CM7. It's pretty nice, has Autofocus as well as Antishake.
It can be installed as a system app and replace the stock camera (rename the apk to camera, and place in the system app folder and change the permissions. or just install as a stand alone app. I chose to replace my stock camera.
If you have any issues, let me know.
Thanks!
I'll give this app a try!
Mine must be broken because they are hardly blinding.

I just installed it! First time I had a chance to use the barcode scanner.
Nice app! Is there a way to zoom in using video? And can I use the front camera with it? I haven't found an option for that, so far.

I don't know of any way to zoom on the video.
I have the front facing camera option on the left hand side of the screen near the top. It has a camera with arrows around it. I'm not sure if it is on the version I linked though. I've switched back to the Miui rom and using the lastest version 1.9.9 which has the front facing camera option (works for both camera and video)... I can try and pull the apk and see what happens if I flash it to CM7 later...
Thanks! I would appreciate this very much!
PS: I'm still hoping someone can explain why there is no control over the softkey lights in sense roms.
For example, screen filter and Moon + reader can both turn them off using AOSP roms, but the same apps cannot in Sense roms.
Is this something that is easy to add and nobody else wants this function, or is there something in the sense roms making it hard to incorporate?
Tried flashing the camera from the latest Miui build (1.9.9) in CM 7... no luck, just force closes.
I'm sure there may be someone out there that knows what needs to be modded to make it work. I wish I did...
I'll enclose the apk if anyone wants to try to mess with it.
Thanks a million for trying, Don!
No problem. Good luck on the backlighting.
I enjoy being able to kill mine when reading books. It's a nice feature to have. Crazy that on the sense based roms that dimming the display doesn't effect the soft key back lighting like it does on the Aosp roms Crazy..

The Fixed2 version doesn't have FFC support. There is also a TEST1 version which has enabled the FFC for some. The link in my signature will take you to the post about Fixed2 but it also links to TEST1. I'm currently working on the version from 1.9.2 so if you want to try it out, PM and I'll give you the download link. The only reason I'm not just posting for everybody right now is so people on various devices/roms give feedback about what needs fixed and tweaked.
As far as why we can't take the app right from MIUI and have it work is because it's dependent on pieces of the MIUI framework. Basically, to make it work the apk needs to be decoded and have some of the framework added to it. Would be a lot easier if MIUI was open source.
Anyone here got a working Android 4.2 Camera that uses 5 Mega pixels instead of 3?
I've tried lots of mods out there but it doesn't seem to work.
Besides, I wonder why it only is able to use up to 3MP and not 5MP unlike other phones?

Try zooming in using 4.2 camera .. you wil find that its a bit blurry. Where as if your using cm10's camera its much more clear when you zoom in.try it.

I second that. The difference comes in when you're viewing it on the computer.
Hence, I was wondering if I could retain the 5MP on the 4.2 Camera because it's blazing fast.

Good for you. I don't have one though. I wouldn't say I depend on my camera a lot, but should there be any events, I'll depend on my phone's camera. Too bad that the new camera only takes up to 3MP. I was hoping if someone would fix it. It can easily replace the previous CM10 camera
in any custom rom.

I recently upgraded to 4.2.1(ParanoidAndroid 2.9.9) and the new camera(which I assume is the standard Google 4.2 camera) is very basic, and very weak compared to what I had. The old camera(which was also Google stock) had a lot of filters built in, and some hilarious distortions such as "Big Eyes" and "Big Head". My kids LOVE those. They are now gone, as is most of the awesome functionality I had. In it's place is Photo Spheres which I personally consider useless. Is there a way to get my old camera back? I don't want to be stuck on 4.1.1 forever but I hate this new camera!

You can install camera ICS from the market. The layout isn't exactly the same ( I assume it's mimicking the ICS camera layout) but it will give you back the filters, funny faces. And yes I wondered the same thing why did google remove them. Kids get tonnes of laughs out of those. I'd love to know how those decisions are made... 'Hey you know those features we've had in the wild for over a year? Yeah let's remove them'
my exact thoughts also, when i had the 16gb nexxy i updated and was VERY annoyed to find the effects deleted, so much it was one of the "cons" that pushed me into refunding for a non-updated 32gb version
im still 4.1 now lol i seriously dont understand why google would :
A: release nexus 7 without a camera app.....(yea i do know why but lame excuse)
B: when you update to 4.2 it deletes any camera app and replaces it with dah dah duh daaaaa a broken one with non-working photosphere.....wtf?
sooooooo mmmmm yeah ill remember this thread when i come to updating

First of all, the app doesn't know which way your camera is facing, nor does it care. Second, I didn't even try it on my Nexus 7, I tried it multiple times on my Galaxy Nexus. Still broken. Never got a decent result. You may say it's operator error, but that's a ridiculous statement as well because it's pretty self explanatory.

ok so look basically it would be very stupid putting diesel into a petrol as it wouldn't work......
acer made it to remove any cam app we had previously then installed a app exactly the same but without the working effects, .... only 1 broken one..photosphere,
saying that its supposed to only work with a front face cam....well then why go to the trouble of jacking our old app and putting one with a feature we cant use......? :good:
Just saying, the app does know which way the camera faces... I assume something in the data for the camera tells the app its front facing. This is probably useful for apps such as Skype too.
When you try photo sphere, it says sorry not supported with front camera.

the strange thing is, you would think panoramic shot wouldnt work, yet in the cam effects pre-4.2 you can use panoramic efect albeit frontcam only, it did work thou.
i think photsphere from front cam, while your in the middle of the shot with the world spinning around you would be a great effect anyways.

You lost me at "Acer". And I hope you realize this is a general "4.2 Google Apps" statement, not something Asus did.
Anyone that what's to going this project is welcome. This project involves finding a way to install the stock camera to asop ROM (like CyanogenMod,blisspop...)
Please help with framework.
alot of developers said it is not possible because it is too much complicated framework and also LG wont release all of their source code so its basically impossible right now

Even if you can, that would not be stock camera... That would be another port like Moto camera, snapdragon camera, lenovo super cam and none of these are even close to stock quality... So what's the point if it's not stock it doesn't matter...

alot of people dont get it
the orinal rom is using bin files that are close source and only working for that rom ,
so to port it , you need to port all of it , not just the app( only app is easy) but getting the whole framework to run a hell.
you can port the app , but will have no effect noone will -> because it has no effect
porting all files , is hard its closed sourced
and building a stock app for cam is the same as downloading any other app from market (you don't have the source for all de features you get with the normal rom)
and witch cam work best depends on the user , but i guess that a lot will say stock is better
eh
I wouldn't worry about it, you don't miss out on all that much anyways. Just a few features are not usable through generic camera apps. I personally use the Google Camera app and love how it works with my G3 on AOSP (BlissPop 3.4); though, I do notice a slower focus time due to no laser focusing.

This thread hurts my head.
This phone has been out for a year and a half, there's been millions and millions of man hours gone in to developing, tweaking and messing with the workings of this phone, yet there is still no camera that matches the quality of the stock camera on AOSP. Just accept that it isn't possible and likely will never be possible like it was mentioned earlier.
