If you love cm7 but hate the camera like I did then you can use the miui one it's much better. To install it just go into root explorer and delete the origional camera and copy this on. Make sure they have the same permissions. Then restart your phone.

Actually CM7 camera is much better for me. The MIUI camera doesn't have functions such as ISO in a short reach. Also I noticed that if you change ISO settings a lot like I do, the camera flash doesn't work sometimes and I have to manually turn it off and on again.
I use Camerazoom for effects. Also MIUI camera's effects are medicore at best.

Hello!
Today I wanted to switch the camera app to the Camera app in Sense1 (froyo edition). Actually the Camera and Camcorder start without problem and all the settings are working. But when I press the trackpad to shoot the image the program force closes.(process.android.camera or something like this)
Do I need to change other files too? The sense1 version would be great because there's a constant noise under the recorded movie in sense3 app.
By the way I'm using RCmix and want to revert the camera app to the one that was in froyo. Thanks for the help
I forgot to mention that the Froyo version Camera app saves the image/recording that I made and it's great quality, however, there's te force close after each shoot
Sadly the Camera app is woven well in to the sense framework.... it would take ALOT of reworking to get it to work... its not as easy as dragging and dropping a few files
you could try copying the lib file over from the sense rom... it /system/lib/libcamera.so
i some what doubt it will work mind
MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE TRYING
Is there a fast enough camera app that produse decent quality photos to be used as the default in CM7? I like d default in sence rom. Is there a similar app to be used in cm7?
Vignate, HLR Cam and all others i tried are slow. The faster cam apps produce poor quality photos.

I have tried camera360 and vignette, as they were the best camera apps they told me. Both take about 10 seconds to process a photo though which annoyed me, and imo the quality was not even better than the stock cyanogenmod app.
So I keep using the stock one, which can also make videos (as many camera apps can't). Try using a different theme that changes the layout of the stock app a little. It still looks like ****, but at least a bit better
Hi,
how about this?
I just install it to CM 7.1 RC and its lots better than stock camera. Better setting.
If interest, download it to link what is in page 3, then you get english version, otherwice it is china...

on page 3 it is posted "With default parameters aosp stock camera beats miui in terms of sharpness and focusing."
Also I read about problems uninstalling it, so I haven't tried it myself...
I'm using MIUI Camera, pretty solid and good.
I've been on the camera hunting too. The ONLY app which satisfied me (and reminded me of the features my previous phone -n95- had) was Camera Advance But on the CM7Nightlies at least, the app produces a black screen when taking photos, rendering the camera useless untill you reboot the device. The dev knows about it, but it has been months since the last update.
But it's worth the try if you ask me. Photo quality is awesome.
I'm looking for a camera apk which incorporates volume rocker controlled zooming while capturing video. I had it in a previous rom i flashed though this was the ONLY thing I miss about that rom. I think it was a virtuous rom but not sure. If anyone could please tell me which builds have this camera functionality and if you can share the apk so i can try adding it to my personal installation of miui i'd be so happy.
why not just tear the camera.apk out of the rom and try it in yours...? Thats what I'd do... just do a backup and if it doesnt play nice reflash the backup. You wont have lost anything...
That's fine. How do I grab the apk?
Edit: nvm, figured out how. still can't get a camera apk which has the zoom while recording feature to work though.

Just retested and if I understand correctly,you want to be able to zoom in/out while recording video? Well on unity 1.31 which is where the camera app that I uploaded for you came from, volume controlled zoom works.
Even if you did find a Camera.apk, if your rom doesnt support its features such as, Volume Button Zoom in and Out, then it still wont allow you to use that specific feature. The Camera.apk built into the Rom is the most functional with all features working, otherwise it wouldnt be there. You can try but I doubt the Rom will allow it to force that feature considering it isnt the Camera.apk that came with that specific Rom. Sorry I could be wrong but i've been through this issue in another thread, so im trying to save you time.
+Rep if I helped!

Ive been trying to find a "perfect" camera app for my DInc2 with a few key features.
*hardware volume button shutter option
*touch screen focus
*adjustable ISO
*clicking thumbnail goes to HTC Gallery app
Didn't think that would be so hard, right? But it always seemed that they came close, but were always missing one feature or another.
So, after many rounds of both paid and free apps I finally found Ucam
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ucamera.ucam&hl=en
Has all the above features, plus more. It also has a stunner of a built in editing package, with tons of presets and discrete controls for brightness, saturation, contrast,etc., *BUT* it downsamples the image to like 1280x800 or something and I can't figure out how to make not do that.
But that's just gravy, considering it already fulfilled my wish list, so hopefully they will fix the resolution problem with the editor. Nice GUI too. And it makes animated GIFs, amongst other oddities. Did I mention the incredible sharing setup?
Plus, its FREE.
They also just came out with a tablet version.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ucamera.ucamtablet
Forums are here but a lot is in Chinese
http://forum.u-camera.com/
I may be late to the party and everyone is already using this, but I think it's worth sharing
I'm using nitsuj's TSMBullet and it has a great camera! The touch to focus, thumbnail brings to gallery, and it has manual, panorama, hdr, and burst mode. There isn't a volume shutter however. One of the best camera's i've used

I have to agree. The bullet camera is very sharp.

This app is awesome! Thanks for the tip.
Btw, to change the image size. Be in camera mode and scroll through the menu at the top of the screen, you should see a square with some sizes in it, press it and select the size you want

What ROM?
Anyone know if this works with the CM9 Kang ROM by areovan? This CM9 ROM is almost perfect. Only 2 issues that I'm running into:
1. Must run "su; killall drmserver" in the terminal after reboot in order to get Google Play to download/update apps
2. Flash on any camera app that I've tried (stock, angel, zoom FX) doesn't work.
I don't really care if the FFC or camcorder works, mainly need a camera app with flash as I travel a lot (business) and love to take pics at a moments notice with my phone.
Any ideas?
I've tried a ton of camera apps and this is by far my favorite after just a few hours of use. Thanks for the tip!

You can turn on the torch before taking the picture and that should help.

they just updated the app to 1.1.7 today, and it fixed a couple of repeatable crashes I was having and had reported...these guys are super responsive! They also said they would consider an option to not downrez the image in editing mode since many smartphones are powerful enough to edit a 8mp image (slowly) these days
This is a great camera app. Thanks for the heads up. Does it take the full 8mp wide pics like sense roms do? It looks like the pic fills the entire screen.
