[Q] Auto Focusing Camera and Camcorder

Hey guys, just a quick question, which roms have the auto focusing camera besides CM7? I am using Vaelpak rom right now but kinda like the auto focusing camera and camcorder
Thanks in advance.

Mine auto focuses with VaelPak

Well, mine does if I press the screen then it focus

Odd, I don't have to do that

[Q] Is there touch-to-focus camcorder? [EDIT: lgCamera works nice]

I use CM7 and I like everything about it except one thing - I miss HTC Camera / Camcorder.
What I miss in particular is touch-to-focus in both camera and camcorder. Does anyone know of a good camera app which has touch-to-focus in camcorder and same amount of options as CM7 camera has?
Thanks.

i faced the same issue. The stock HTC camera/camcorder combo is awesome.
I use vignette, little photo, pudding camera for photos and lgcamera for video

For camera i'd recommend using Camera360 ultimate...it has touch to focus n a lot lot more effect and customization than HTC Camera...For camcorder- I'm looking for a good replacement too..

Yeah Camera 360 is the best camera app, I've even bought the full version. I've also got Camera ZOOM FX.
But I really miss Sense camcorder and I'm thinking of flashing a Sense ROM (which I'm not crazy about)...
I will give lgCamera a shot.
EDIT: Wow, lgCamera is really nice, thanks guys! It has a lot of options and video quality is superb. ONLY thing it misses is touch-to-focus while recording, but I think I will be able to live without it, as I can quickly stop recording and refocus and record again. 720p 13Mbps + MPEG4 works like a charm

miui camera works for me
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App

cyanogen 7.1 camera

I don't like the limited miui camera app so I added the cyanogen 7.1 camera app here for you to enjoy a camera as good as the Samsung stock one!!
Here are some features in the cyanogen cam app the miui cam app does not have...
1. touch anywhere on the screen spot light meter (miui is center spot meter only)
2. touch anywhere on the screen focus (miui only has center focus)
3. Face detect focus
4. Exposure settings
Enjoy a better camera app!
How to install this beauty: download to SD-card and install. Simple as that
thanks to Cyanogen and stassano!
TEST AND REPORT,PLEASE!

Do you think you could implement low battery hack (don't know if its necessary) and shutter hack (make photos [with autofocus] with the power button)? Would be awesome.
PS: That is version G here

[Q] Question about CM10.1 Camera

Does anyone know why touch to focus does not work on CM10.1 camera?

It does, just touch the focus point you want and then take the picture. It will do it by itself with the are you selected.

I have the same problem in my i9100 since i installed the nigtly 20130229
I touch the screen where i want focus and the focus icon doesn't move, it is allways red.
Another thing is that the HDR photos are blur
Thanks!

CM 10.1 Camera quality

I think the camera quality isn't a hardware problem but a software one. E.g. in darkness the camera doesn´t turn on the light when focussing.
In system/lib/hw is a file (camera.msm.8960.so) which should be changed but i'm not able to do this. There must be played with the values. Some clever guys did this in for other phones before.
My phone before was the LG 2x and in that forum they raised quality above 200% of the original one.
I attache the file to work with. Maybe here are some insiders too.

...the only problem is that the camera does not focus when the flash comes in darkness. Or it focuses too early or too late. When you turn on the flashlight on the phone permanently and take a photo, everything is fine. The problem is in CM 10.1 and 10.2.
Isn´t here somebody who knows a trick?

In focal camera you have the option to turn on flash as a torch. I turn it on then take a picture. That fixed for me but I have to agree. The camera quality is bad. Something must be done.

Just use a 3rd party camera app.

I tried some 3rd party apps but that didn't solve the problem that the camera doesn't focus when using the flash. This seems not to be an app problem, it's in the files from the rom like I attached above.
Or do you have a suggestion for an app that solves the problem with focus in darkness?

Hmmm...as for me I don't have that issue. I am using Epsilon V3 ROM by core720, which is based on stock. For camera app, I use snap camera hdr and the new focal camera.

Ok, I tried that rom which is very great, very smooth. Nice. But the camera is still not focussing right with the stock cam or snap camera hdr in darkness at my side. It surely is not an app problem...
