Hey guys,
I downloaded this rom and I love it.
I have couple of questions about the camera app:
1. The pics and videos seem to be in a lower quality than on the stock rom. Do any of u know what's the quality that the rom takes photos? Is it hd?
2. I cant find a way to save the pics and videos On the sdcard. Do any of u know how?
3. The camera app is pritty basic. Do u know any other app that can make the camera richer with options?
Thanks alot.
anyone?
That's because the sources released for n7100 are incomplete so everything has to be ported by hand. That makes it difficult for the developers.
There are many variants available of pa, try another one.

That's going to be pretty much the same unfortunately. If you want something advanced, try Camera Zoom FX, or FV-5 which has almost DSLR like controls.
Thanks for the answers guys.
What about the other questions?
Does anyone know how can I keep the pics on SD and what is the quality of the photos and videos taken with this ROM? is it HD?

Hi guys. Which in your opinion is the best all round camera app for the Desire? The stock camera I have is ok but am sure there are apps out there which will improve the camera so am asking for your recommendations.
Many thanks
Anyone? lol
I've only really ever used the stock camera to be honest.
Camera360 is quite good in my opinion... Lots of options.
i've tried most of the Cam apps on the market ... and the Stock is the best and fastest.
Cheers for your help guys Will have a look at camera360 and give it a go.
I've tried a few camera apps, but stock Camera application on Froyo is the best and simpliest.
If you want better photos, try shot the picture without battery cover!

Don't bother unless you want cheap/crappy effects. Best thing you can do is to set up you desire camera properly. Just play with the sharpness, contrast etc settings. And for effects use something like pic pro or photoshop express.

My old post with setting. Fair bit of noise, but that's because lighting is far from adequate for desires sensor. You get nice and vivid colours in day time. Only thing, sharpness has to be +1, +2 is a bit too much.

I just pushed my lens cover out completely. Get a little bit of dust, but nothing that can't be sorted out with a good blow and wipe.
stick to the stock camera app! it's the best!
I use Camera360 and Vignette, both for pretty nice effects. I rarely use the stock camera, because even with the right settings (posted above) pictures still look a bit crappy to me.
I tried nearly all of the camera apps out of the market. The best one in my opinion is "Camera Advance". It has a user interface and settings like you find on the compact digital cameras and makes better pics than the stock one. It has a good autofocus function and a great preview after taking a picture.

As has already been mentioned, poke out the crappy plastic disc that makes all the pics blurry and use the stock app in good lighting.

Have already done that but was looking for an app with more features than stock with better quality images if possible

The stock camera app. really is the best imo. If you want to add some post production effects then something like Camera360 will do the job.
I like lgCameraPro IMHO it is more usable.
Stock camera and use cameraFun.

Hi All,
I have Camera Zoom FX on my HOX, but can't seem to find a way of taking pictures while recording HD video, like you can on the standard camera app.
Does anyone know of a way?
Cheers

Probably not possible, it would need to be built into the app to work
They probably wouldn't, as I assume it takes quite a bit of power to be recording video and still have spare resource to take a picture, I know hox does do this, but a lot of other phones simply couldn't, and it would make their app look bad if they put in a feature that didn't work on 90% of the phones out there

What do you expect? Even Samsung said ICS was too heavy for our phone! Arco68 is working great to give us the taste of JB, so don't ask about improving camera at least it works. If you want a fully working Camera go back to Stock/GB it is originally made by Samsung so everything works.

Aye, arco has done awesome job.
So be happy, that there are atleast some customs ROMs.
the only good thing that all stock cams (GB/ICS) r good for is video filming, otherwise ull have to surf ur play store to find the cam app that fulfills ur needs (its variable according to the kind of pics u want "super fast capture or super hd clarity or super effects")
press thanks if i help you
oic... tq for replying. how about the app in play store ?
I would just download another camera app but I found the ICS camera to be alright really otherwise ICS camera+ works pretty well.

Hello, i have the t989 and loaded the slim bean rom on it and everything works perfectly. However, Previously with the stock rom I could record in lower quality formats like 240, etc, but now in the video camera the lowest quality setting it will let me record in is 480p. Is there a way to record the lower quality videos. my wife like to take short small videos that can be sent via whats app to family.
Anyone have any info?
yeah im running slim i checked every where i dont see any other option try downloading ICS camera and see if they have the option in there its relatively the same cam

Thanks. Yeah, tried that one too. The apps must just take the settings from the rom and only use what is available according to the rom. I'd prefer to not go back to the stock rom if possible, but need to look for one that supports lower video qualities.
Hi guys,
I'm using the CM10 ROM by the FreeXperia team on my Sony Xperia S, and I'm a bit disappointed about the quality of the pictures taken with the camera. Pics taken at night with flash, in particular, are always blurry and out of focus.
What are in your opinion the best settings to take decent pictures? How exactly do you focus before taking the pic?
Hopefully this can be a useful thread to share experiences so that we can all take better pics! :fingers-crossed:
I just use common sense. More exposure at night, flash only when I want it. And for the people with a bit more knowledge in this, install a third-party app (I myself use procapture) and control your ISO. That's probably why your photos are blurry, the aosp camera doesn't deal well with iso.
That's basically how I do pictures...
My cam settings are Canon 350D
no seriously this phone can't shoot so it's not worth to worry about settings

What focus mode do you guys use? The default is continuous, did you change it?
Sent from my Xperia S using xda app-developers app
Within my third-party app, yes, I change it.
I only use the CM app for when I really need a quick shot (nature, family pics etc.), so the focus isn't always good, but I take like 10 pics every time so no worries
And FYI this phone is a great cameraphone. It's not a DSLR, but it does the job well enough to compete with a point-and-shoot (maybe even beat the low/midrange ones).
If you really want great pics, use stock Gingerbread. Fast and fluid, in my opinion better than the ICS and JB camera apps. Will post a screenie of my settings once I get to a PC so I can restore a backup...
I'm using Snap Camera HDR from Play Store and I'm really satisfied

Try flashing modded cybershot app via recovery ! It has superior auto function of Xperia Z and Xperia ZL.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2296375
And In case of normal mode i suggest you to use multi auto focus with suitable white balance and appropriate EV.

hi guys,
is it me, or does the camera really suck at taking pics in JB.
Coz i remember i took a pic of london eye at night from the otherside of the river when i got my xperia S and it was :good: but yesterday when i was in london again, tried doing the same, taking pic at night and it was always coming out blury no matter how stable i was, nearly ended up throwing it in the river.
So, any suggestions guys, also, do u guys think the cybershot app with hdr and superior auto really does produce good pics?
