I find it annoying that after I have taken a picture and click on preview, it gives me the sharing option and not the ability to view the photo and scroll through my other images
is it possible to stop this happening, i'd rather it go directly to the gallery instead of the sharing part
I don't believe there is any way to disable this functionality.
I personally prefer this feature. But of course, your preference is subjective.
Yeah, it's subjective really. But I hate it as well
Just tap the photo - it will take you to the gallery and you can scroll through other pics to your heart's content

its the tapping that's annoying!
I've already clicked on the thumbnail, so one tap should be sufficient!
oh well!
thanks for the replies guys
I think because google wanted to add more immediate editing controls after the picture was taken. When someone takes a picture I guess editing/sharing functions for that picture are more important than starting a slideshow or starting to scroll through past pictures. If you want to take pictures you goto camera, if you want to view pictures you goto the gallery.
Yes its a very slight annoyance but not a major one and certainly not a drawback in any way (unless you want to view all your previous pictures everytime you take a new one)

By the way, is it possible to turn the camera sound off?

If you use the Modaco custom Rom Kitchen. There isnt a seperate mod for it yet though you have to bake it into the Rom.

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

Did not work. I searched for another one on google. I'll try that one now and let you guys know.
I tried the 3d gallery i found and it seems to be running as good as the stock one did. I'll update this if thats not the case. I have Vanilla 2.2 messaging and gallery. It is partially hybrid
Can you please port the .apk you found? My gallery app is acting up and doesn't read my pics. I'm rooted running stock de-odexed rom and am planning on deleting it and re-installing it..thanx

This should work for you guys. Enjoy.
Still doesnt read my sd card..I've tried everything and it still wont read my pics Can anyone post the files in the thumbnail folder that obviously aren't the actual thumbnail pics??
FYI, this seems to break some of the options in the Sense Camera. The menu/gallery softbuttons don't seem to work consistently.

I used this gallery apk and it worked.

I dont quite get what your referring to. Explain it a little better.
He's talking about the little picture on the top right corner right that comes out after you take a picture..Now when you click it, it does nothing..instead of opening the picture.

And the bottom-most button below the "camera shutter" button in the Camera App. It looks like a little SD Card and normally takes you to the "gallery", HTC's Album. I'm thinking we have to change the link somehow.
Thanks!

I know there are apps that provide the flashlight option.
My main goal is to have a constant flash on as I take pictures, not taking pictures with flash on.
I want to already provide light to an object in a dark space from my phone, and take pictures without flash.
I know before I switched to the Galaxy Note 3, I was on a rooted HTC Sensation, and it had a flashlight option in the quick menu, which allowed me to do what I'm trying to do.
Does anyone know how to do this without rooting yet?
There are apps for that
There is an app that is a flashlight that gets really really bright and is adjustable. It does require root though. It's called adjustable torch. I actually use it for the same purpose. Hope this helps.

just curious as to what you are shooting that you need light on to find it then the ligh off to take a pic!
Sure the explanation will be funny as heck in a Ron White show.

Amateur ghost hunter.
alright, i'm definitely not explaining this correctly.
how do i keep my flashlight ON, on my phone (running in the background), while I do other stuff on my phone?
You can't keep your flash light on, and use the camera at the same time. You need to have it off, and use the flash capability through the camera settings.
I don't like the flash, but if my flash light on my phone can run in the background, I could take pictures in the dark without using the flash action.
Am I making sense? I hope so ? ):

Ok Gotcha. Only way i know to do this is to take pics from the video camera. Then you can go back and delete the video file.
Camera KK this looks like it was built with CameraNext and has had the best results from any camera app on Fire Phone I have used. Even with flash!
I attached some unaltered shots outdoors and indoors with lights on and off in my server room.
Free has ads and $1.99 to remove them. So try it and let me know any tips you might find.
Still has flash issue in low light. It's going to take more than an app in the store to resolve the issue.
Nice, good find, flash pic quality looks similar to the ones from Snap Camera... I found the post I was thinking about:

• Exposure compensation to -2 ev

No, but I do.
I tried reducing exposure -1 and that did a little but the flash normal was also pretty good. The pic from the op was in a completely dark room so have to see what low light looks like.

Oohhh very nice, that's a very solid result for basically "default settings"! Will download it and take on a "test drive" tomorrow.
Compared to the pics taken with the new Huawei Mate S, why are we even complaining... :laugh:
(...added the quote about the Snap Camera settings in my previous post, SC requires a little more work to yield good results...)
HDR freezes the app... sigh...
... and so will * every other app when using HDR. I don't need it, some people can't live without it (looking at you, russy23 ^^).
Camera KK is a solid alternative to Snap Camera or Camera MX, and easy to use because of the stock Android look & feel.

Camera Zoom FX
I tried taking HDR pics using Camera Zoom FX and it didn't crash.
I also found a good camera app that works great on the slimcat rom: cymera. Flash works and great filters are integrated. Couldnt find an option for HDR though...
Could someone try Simple Camera, it went free in the amazon app store today. Didn't know if maybe being from the Amz App Store might make a difference in getting a good flash... I'm back on Stock Fire OS right now so I can't try myself...
Thanks,

Thanks for mentioning (It's free in the US store, in Germany for example, they want 74 cents, hehe)
But sadly, being from the Amzn Store means nothing. A lot of "Devs" (more like "copy paste coder" ^^) publish their apps on multiple portals to make a little more $$$. This app is the exact same version as on Google Play Store.
It's based on OpenCamera, it even creates the "OpenCamera" subfolder in the "DCIM" folder. ^^ Default settings: flash pics are overexposed...
edit: Also tried "Cymera" on the weekend. It's, uhh, very "girly". For people who love filters & gramin' it's a feasible alternative, I'll stick with the "functional" ones, like Camera KK.
Can't you use the camera apk from Fire OS? Or does that require all the Amazon framework, kernel, our HAL stuff?

Correct, source code for the camera HAL is needed. Highly unlikely that it will be released by Amazon.
Oh wait, we're all getting bootloader unlock codes for Christmas when they put the developer version under our trees.
LOL Camera KK force closes on me. Cymera works though.

I bought Snap Camera, it has a good amount of options for people who want to customize their photo settings.
Quality is good, flash pics work too, you can correct the exposure if needed (other apps have this as well, ofc.)
Right now, I'm still using Camera KK (free version), because I just need a simple "shooter", just like the stock android app.
Anyone found a decent camera to take pictures when light is low without using flash? My pictures are always too dark even if I try to change light exposure...

Camera KK, exposure -1, is the best I got. Tried a bunch.
I was playing with XL2 in Verizon Store, trying to check out that portrait mode with one lense. You don't have to move camera, as before for pixel 1, but when picture is done I couldn't find menu to adjust amount of background blur. Why is that?

And what have you contributed to the xda community? Nothing.
As I said, ask Google because that's not a feature in the Google photo app. If you want to edit blur intensity get a Samsung or LG phone.
It used to be in the previous pixel, why removing it?
