CM10 With Working 4.2 Camera?

I've been running modified stock TW ROMS and they seem to be the only ROMS capable of running the 4.2 camera with out it freezing. Anything CM10 based freezes. I've searched the forums for a fix to no avail has anyone found a fix for this? I really love this camera and want to use CM10 based ROMS in the future.
Also is it possible to use WiFi-Direct on CM10 properly to transfer files? I see the WiFi-Direct option in the settings but cant seem to send files this way.
Thanks a bunch.

Please search next time. This has been covered.
What you need to do with the 4.2 camera is focus by touching middle of screen then take pic.

did use the search, must not have used correct keywords. Touching middle of the screen doe not always work. Thank you for the response.

Just curious, were you able to get the 4.2 camera to work on any ICS TouchWiz roms or were they all JB?

Yeah I had it working on stock ICS and I have it working on a Galaxy Note II port. For me only TW seems to work the camera flawlessly. Nerver got it 100% on any CM based ROMS.

Touch middle of screen to focus then take a picture...OR.......go to option and turn scene mode to "action"...that also fixes the problem

Just tried this as well, doesn't work. Even used different 4.2 camera packages with the same result. Just going to stay on TW based ROMS for now.

I've done a fair amount of reading on this and I really don't think the 4.2 camera will work until we get the merged CM10 builds. I'm not sure why it appears to work with ICS TouchWiz roms, but as far as CM10 is concerned I think it's a pretty safe bet that it just won't work until we get 4.2.

Installed it on my device running a modified TW ICS rom,
Photosphere doesn't work that well :/

Try flashing this camera package. This is the only one that seems to work for me for some reason. A friend of mine discovered this. I wish I knew where so I can credit them but try flashing this zip
http://www.mediafire.com/?ppk3v9quq9ncnrf

I flashed a camera zip file from here:
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/10/31/download-camera-apk-from-android-4-2-photo-sphere-included/
think it's the same?

It very well could be. The zip I sent you has photosphere working and with the gallery working. The editing portion works on few ROMS not all for some reason I've noticed. But the zip i sent you is the one I've been using.

Here's the ROM I'm using since I was on my mobile responding before:
Serenity: ]=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951115
Everything is working except the photo editor options. Tiny world works but it's hit and miss on the others. So far this is probably my favorite ROm that I have had no problems with yet. I just use stock gallery to do my photo editing when i need to since 4.2 is mostly filters anyways but photosphere does work for me.

Nexus 4 camera app for Galaxy Nexus

hello
my friend have a n4, and i don't really know in the galaxy nexus why have not the HDR function ?
same android, same camera ( except the 8 megapixel)
anybody try the n4 camera app on galaxy nexus ? the HDR function is in ?
thanks a lot

It will not work that way. Try CM10.1 ROMs, their camera app has HDR function

and the cm10.1 camera apk will work on stock ? maybe this way

Sorry won't work because CM10.1 camera use CM files permission i try it before and the camera was crashing every time that i was trying to open but the HDR is no that good anyway you have to use a tripod or it will be moved the photo is really sensitivity because it will take 3 photography on one shot
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

thanks the information, hopefully the next android release will be include the HDR

Use HDR Camera from the Play Store. Works better than the CM camera in my opinion, which had a tendency to blur photos.

done. but the n4 make better pictures. this is why i want to this feature in my gnex

thats easy
- with root explorer delete gallerygoogle.apk on system/app
- extract gallery.apk from cm10.1 file and move it to system/app (don't forget change permissions to rwx - rxx - rxx)
now you have hdr feature like N4 on your gnex with stock camera
i already test this on rootbox 4.2.2 ROM and no FC on camera

it takes better pictures because the actual camera in the N4 is better than the one in the G-nex. different lenses, larger MP etc.
HRD camera is a great way to get some "HDR" action on the Gnex. or you can download something like picsay pro and apply the HDR filter afterwords. no, its not TRUE HDR like the Nexus 4, but our hardware just isn't fast enough to take real HDR shots.

It will give you FC if you use stock... You r using a rom base on cm that's why may worked
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

Use a modified GAPPs like this one. I will get rid of photoshere and not sync photos to picasa but it will give you the HDR option. Its called :gapps-jb-20130301-signed-edited.zip
at this website ---http://goo.im/devs/qnhoang81/toroplus/AOKP

its easier to just install camera360 (free)....... the HDR functinon is FAR better with more options ..... as an added bonus you get all the other filters and functions as well

why is auto focus not working in every single rom?

Hi everyone,
I was wondering why is Auto focus in the camera app on this phone not working in every single rom? I think Touch to focus not works with some of the nightly roms out there, but did auto focus ever work on this phone? I don't remember...I really wish the camera preview would auto focus when getting close to an object, without me tapping the display or long pressing the shutter button. Any way we can get this to work? And did this ever work in touchwiz as well?
Another question is that I'm using Sons of Android rom, which is pretty old but has the best performance for me, but this one doesn't have the touch to focus version of camera. What rom has the touch to focus these days? I will download the rom and extract the gallery2.apk from the zip file if you let me know what rom has the feature.
Thanks for your help!

Thanks for letting me know. I would like auto focus, but definitely not to the extent that I would go back to stock..I just can't live without themeing, especially the status bar. I really don't like the look of touchwiz status bar..
Hope someone can answer my other questions!

I understand what you mean. I think iPhone has this feature and so does the MIUI ROM. Sadly I've heard no other camera that has this feature

Don't all 4.1.2 roms have touch to focus? Which is what miui is as well.
Yeah, I don't think any 4.2.2 roms have it. But they do auto focus when you click your pic. So not sure about the title of this thread.

Hey, I really appreciate your reply, but I think you may be wrong..almost all recent (and a lot of not recent) phones have the feature..I also have a HTC One V which is a low end phone where they release it at the same time as One X and S, and that phone with 5 mp camera has this auto focus feature that works really well. It focuses really fast when I move the camera close to an object. And apparently we also have this on stock roms as well? So.. why don't we on the aosp roms..

Hmm..i haven't used much 4.1.2 roms, but I did use MIUI (the new one) and I don't remember it having auto-focus. And not all 4.2.2 have touch to focus. Only newer nightlies started having them I think. I'm on Sons of Android, which is 4.2.2 but released and ended updating in March this year, but this one doesn't have touch to focus Nor Auto focus..

I was saying 4.1.2 roms should have it...unless the dev changed it. I'm on northern touch infamous, its touch to focus.
And I said 4.2.2 roms don't have it. Unless some have started using it. But none I used.
As far as what you mean by auto focus....they all auto focus when you click. You mean focus just by pointing, before you touch a thing?? I've never seen that on this phone ever. Sorry.

I'm running a T989 with CM10.1 (which is 4.2.2) and the default camera app has tap-to-focus, and autofocuses when you go to take the picture. It still looks out-of-focus in the preview, but the version in the gallery looks fine.

Yea, I think you are running pretty recent version of CM10.1, right? I remember having it with some 4.2.2 roms but didn't remember which rom it was. I will try to take the gallery2.apk from my cm10.1 zip file i downloaded before. Thanks. And I guess we won't be seeing autofocus in the preview without touching anything..

For what it's worth, I sprung a couple of bucks for CameraZOOM, and have found it worth the price as a camera replacement. Most notably (for me at least) is it has a macro mode and better focusing options in general.

[REQ] Similar GS4 camera on Note 2?

I know that since the Galaxy S4 runs 4.2.2 and Note 2 runs 4.1.2 (for some reason -.-) that the actual apk is not going to work, but does anyone have a different camera app that can do the same features, in particular i like the sound and shot feature, but I am looking for an app that can do most if not all the same features the s4 can do. Any suggestions?

I'm using this and it works beautifully

Just curious but, what other features are you looking for? The only other things I see that are lacking are sound and shot, dual shot, and eraser shot, of which none interest me personally. Truthfully, the only extra I was looking for was the 360 shot. I do like the gallery better but it's missing a thing or two I like from the stock gallery

[REQ] Archiport stock camera for AOSP 4.4.2

Is it possible for someone to get the stock Samsung camera from Archiport 4.4.2 onto AOSP roms such as CM11. The stock camera is the only one that seems to allow video recording on Snapchat or Vine & I'd like to have it in CM11:good:

Samsung have the blobs for the stock camera, aosp camera is a toy in comparison for this reason I will never return to aosp T_T. so if samsung don't give us his sources we never have the awesome view in aosp

Actually the camera on Slimkat works pretty fine. I agree that its not that good as samsung stock one, but not that bad at all. I've heard also that in new CM11 for our phone the camera works well too. But as it was said - I wouldnt believe that it will be as good as stock, because I don't think samsung will give us the drivers.
@edit
I also saw some fix mod for camera, which replaces stock camera in AOSP rom and works even better

To be honest All i want is a camera that works with both Snapchat and vine for video recording. snaps only record 3 seconds instead of 10 and vine just wont record at all :crying:
