The camera on cm7 does not seem to really take amazing pictures in the 8mp mode. Is there an app that can enhance this or is this just how it is? Also is there a ROM anyone recommends that is good for picture taking?

you can try the miui camera on cm7 it works better but make sure you dont turn on auto focus or it will reboot the phone.
make a backup and try flashing this

updated my post with a flashable zip
make sure you do a back up before you flash because it will replace you stock cam. if you dont like it you can just restore.
also check and make sure auto focus is off by pressing menu and then settings.
Ok thanks a ton for the information!!

TBH, I've found the MIUI ROM faster as a whole than CM7. Use a different launcher and it's like CM7 but fewer settings/faster.

The thing about miui was it was overwhelmingly iphone like. I really didn't like how the settings menu itself was laid out being like an iphone and it was really bright and vibrant i like that cm7 can be dark including the messaging.

Are you getting the dark theme with the stock MMS app or a third party one?

CM7 stock messaging has dark mode in the settings.

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.
does anyone know where i can score the apk for this bad boy? i played with it in the new froyo port (very nice job) and i want it now. thanks in advance.
I use a widget called "LED Light" from the markplace, has the same look and feel as the HTC 4G, Wifi, etc widgets.. not sure if that's what you meant or not.
if you downloaded Avas (or Heros i believe) sense 2.2 ROM, you can grab the apk out of the zip.

My favorite is LED Desire Light. It has the brightest setting I've seen so far, and can even transmit messages via the flash light in morse code. In case.. you know... you are trapped somewhere and can't make calls.... and can...
Ahh forget it. Anyways, it comes with a widget. Tap for on, tap for off. I love it.

I am getting an error on my EVO when I try to install the apk that this is not supported.
OK got it. Missed step to use Astro to install it. Great app!

definitely cool to have multiple levels of brightness. And of course, you know that morse code ability will come in handy one of these days....

Nor possible without extensive mod. You need a new bluetooth stack as far as I know. CM6 does support the 8 megapixel camera.

megapixels has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of the picture; only the size.

When running CM6 click the gear looking icon in the menu strip, it will pop out a scrollable menu including options to choose resolution. There was one or maybe two nightly builds where it lost the 8mp setting, but it was back a day later. Also that is in the nature of nightly builds, they are made for the developer to test things, not really for users. All the other nightlies and the RC support 8mp.

Agreed. People do a lot of hard work to make this stuff. Don't bash it, especially when you are wrong.

Somewhere???
Forgive the noob question, but it's pretty on-topic (even if the thread is on the wrong boards )... Could a custom kernel swap the BT stack being used w/a Sense ROM or is part of it still largely dependent on the ROM itself? I noticed that Damage made some note of using part of Cyanogen's BT code in the kernel they were working with for their Froyo Sense ROM (beta 3.5, prior to Sprint/HTC's official announcement, who knows what'll happen now). Just exploring some possibilities, I'm a noob when it comes to Android's inner-workings.

Wasn't going to say anything but I couldn't resist. The OP couldn't figure out that his question belonged in the Q&A section, are you really surprised he's bashing something for not properly understanding how to use it? RTFM comes to mind. Or in this case, RTFWiki

Thats a tiny thumbnail but you can see by the info there that the image itself is HUGE, if I bring it up to original size you can see the dew drops on the spiderwebs on the grass.
http://www.webpagescreenshot.info/img/789812-81201021951AM
As you can see (After it loads) the screenshot does not even get the entire image as it does not scroll sideways, this is an image using the CM6 RC.
As you can see the image quality is great (terrible focus right now though), but the image quality when you get the focus right is spot on.

Does any one know if cm7 is gonna make a better camera apk or a video one thats the only thing that bugs me i love cm7 battery life and all the extra features just sucks that you cant use all the EVO Eye candy camera and vid cause the camera on cm7 kinda makes your phone feel like a 5 dollar web cam. I love the stock cam and vid. Hope someone has some info and what do you all think about it? I love using my camera.
The camera will come around. Right now cm7 is technically still a beta so not everything is going to be 100%. So just hold out for a little while, it will get better

Does your camera make a lil clicky sound after you snap a photo or two off?
I PMd you, you can set it to widescreen in the settings, go to frame and click on fullscreen. There's tons of settings to try. Unfortunately it doesn't do video :/

I did not make this app!!! Just thought I would share it with you. It is included in my rom and is very good! Link is here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.moblynx.cameraics I really like it. Once again I have nothing to do with this app. Just though I would share it.
Edit: do not ask about my rom please. I am getting flooded with PMs and people should just email me about my rom, not pm or post in a completely unrelated thread. Thank you.

tried your camera ics..
auto focus is bad on it other than that its pretty good.
if you want a good camera use procapture camera
i use my cam alot and i have almost all cam apps from vignette to fxcam to cartoon cam. but the best of the best IMO is procapture for the auto focus and when it takes a pic the screen doesn't go black like in camfx or vignette and yes is has volume keys to take pic.
just my 2cents.

mostly just auto focus not working. the devs of the app said they are working to improve it. Oh i should mention the auto focus is just bad with the volume keys it takes good pics with focus if you touch the red button and hold to focus then release to take pic. but since Samsung couldn't afford to add a dedicated cam button, volume keys to take pic is a must for me.

Why would you buy Camera ICS? It is a free app but the paid version doesn't have ads. To block ads just get an ad blocker (assuming you have root access) from the market. And this is not "my app". I just wanted to share it with you. It runs with no bugs on my phone and it works flawlessly with my rom. Thank you for the feedback though, guys!
