camera app for aosp rom. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

hey guys i was just wondering if there was a camera app that would be better than the one on the cm9 rom i am running.
the camera is fine for taking pictures but with the video camera it doesn't have a option for changing video size so i can send video files over mms.
and i als can't take a photo without it making a sound. don't always want everybody to know i am taking a picture..lol

Hmm, AOKP's cam let's you take different quality of vids, hence different sizes. There is also an option to turn off shutter sound in system settings.

Camera zoom fx.
However there are ways to disable camera sounds by editing the files it uses.

pleaseee give me a decent 3rd party camera, samsung F-ed this one up too much..

the galaxy s1 had an amazing camera, it had lots of options, and was even altered so it could be loaded below 15% battery, during music being played, and a hardware shutter button added in. totally amazing.
butttt, the galaxy s2 on the other hand.. samsung added a picture and video editor app on this phone, how lovely right? WRONGGGG ALSKFDSFJLSD =[, they removed the cameras build in ability to select these options, so that you REQUIRE these photo and video editors just to be able to do what you could do directly from the camera before..
in the Video camera, you could pause and resume the video, making a nice group of memories all in one video. now that the video editor was added, this camera option was removed, so that you will have to edit together groups of videos, just to do what you were able to do before.
in the Picture camera, you were able to change the lighting and coloring of the picture, so many times id adjust the saturation, and take a sunset picture, now that the picture editor was added, you can no longer adjust these, you have to go back and edit over every single picture.. ugh
i love to ride my bike or rollerblade, or jog, or drive around, i love being outdoors, and i love listening to my music, but whenever i want to take a picture of some great sight, my music has to stop.. i take tons of pictures every day, why must it always force my music to stop..
while id love to see the galaxy s1 camera brought over to the s2, finding a replacement camera seems more likely.. does anyone know of a 3rd party camera app that is actually decent? ive never found a camera app that did any justice..
would loveeee to see any suggestions of 3rd party camera app, does anyone have one?
I use HDR+ which I find to be an amazing camera app for quality.
HDR Camera+
awesome, im going to check it out right now, thanks a ton my good sir
Also check out LGCamera and Camera 360 (both links to free versions - I use the Camera 360 Pro app)
Thanks for the HDR tip, btw. I'll go explore
i was looking for a camera app too... camera 360 is nice
i second hdr+. its simply fantastic...as for the gs1 camera..i thought it was average at best, and thats being kind. the video editor, imo, was total toss...usually fc'd when editing 720p vids and took too long to do anything..gs2 is much better..

Unfortunately only a few apps support the FFC. I suggest MagicHour and Pudding Camera when they get the aspect ratio fixed
It's in korean but its easy to navigate

Hi,
Anyone use this app as main camera?
I am trying it but sometimes i get force closes and to take a photo it takes to long.
What do you think about this app?
Erm and why would u like to use it cam?? :S
I really like it. No FC at all, on both photo and video side (tested on CM7 and MIUI). Ok, it's not the best graphically, but it has a lot of options.
The only problem i do have is that vertical photos show up rotated left
I'm using it with no problems on 2.3.5 xxki3, great app, as you can turn off the stupid autofocus while video recording!
It's the only unofficial camera app I've found that supports 1080p video recording smoothly. AND it lets you set the audio bitrate in-app!

Finally found the (almost) perfect camera app

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.

hey i wanna know some good app for clicking pic like a DSLR camera .. lol kidding.. want a app that uses the wfs camera AT ITS OPTIMUM level.. and gives me the best pic it can everytime.. let it be a paid app or free but tell me some nice ones thanks in advance..
Camera zoom FX, Camera 360, Camera ICS, ProCapture, MIUI camera.
All of them give, more or less, similar results (you can't expect pro photos from mediocre hardware) and all of them has options that makes them diferent:
- Zoom FX and camera 360 have filters that you can apply right on picture;
- ProCapture has interesting and usable panorama mode;
- Camera ICS has 2x video birtrate recording... etc.
But... what i learned from years of photo hobby and what i missed from stock camera (don't use stock rom long time now) was "touch to focus" option which is visible right on display and really makes changes to exposure of photos. Camera 360 has that one but it doesn't do anything (at least for me) to exposure at all.
So curently i use MIUI camera which have that possibility and it does make photos as close as possible to what i want.
UCam is a better cam app. You try it

Same as this guy.
I don't know why Camera Zoom FX always takes better pictures than the stock camera app
I'm really interested in Camera Zoom FX. Does anyone know if it works on Cyanogenmod 10? The stock camera app on it doesn't have enough settings
