This looks a bit ridicules, I mean even the oldest phone I had had this feature but I don't know why the camera doesn't have a feature to take sequential photos with timer. The original camera app itself only has burst mode and every other app I have tried either freezes or crashes after taking the first picture. does anyone know how I could do this or an app or fix for this feature?

I'd like to buy the HDR Camera+ app but I'm wondering something... Does the app make use of the Nexus' fast shutter? A friend told me there are fast and slow modes in the app from which the fast one doesn't work on all phones. Does it work on the Nexus? I don't think HDR on this particular phone would be worth it over stock app if it's as slow as other phones...
Would appreciate it if someone using it could tell me Thanks.
Well HDR essentially takes multiple pictures and then stitches them together. So I'm gonna say its not gonna be as fast. Besides, do you want good pictures or quick pictures?
Dude, HDR are not for taking moving objects, it's more for landscape or things that don't move.
Basically, HDR takes 3 photos and fuse them together, kind of. HDR takes a underexposed, normally exposed and over-exposed shot.

I purchased HDR+ Camera app. It used to work great. Now, either a recent update or Jelly Bean cause it to force close. It cannot take pictures. Wait, or look elsewhere for a similar app as there are several in the Play Store.

Well, it works on JB. I'm using CM10 and it works... :] Maybe you should try clearing cache or fixing permissions!

Yes I know what HDR is and how it works. I was simply asking if it's relatively faster on the Nexus than other phones that don't have shutters as fast.

Pro HDR Camera the best HDR camera for android, way better than HDR+

Thank you, I'll have a look at that too.
Hi,
here is a beautiful fast & unique camera app from Moto x,
Action:
•Press the screen to captures picture
•Holding the screen activates the burst mode for capturing multiple pictures.
•Dragging up and down zooms in and out.
•Swiping fingers from left to right brings camera settings, and from right to left takes to the Gallery.
•Another convenient gesture is twisting your wrist twice (quickly) while holding the camera in hand launches camera anytime. It’s a great feature for a smartphone with no dedicated camera button.
Features:
•Single shots
•Burst shots
•Video recording
•Front-facing camera toggle
•Swipe to open settings
•Swipe to open gallery
•Touch to focus toggle
•Flash mode toggle
•Shutter sound toggle
•Geo-tag toggle
The camera app can be installed as a normal APK file. Installing this camera app does not replace the stock camera of your device and having installed it, you’ll see two different shortcuts in your app drawer.

Good one, but what does the SLO mode do? It seems locked for me. I can't use it. Anyone has an Idea.?
Few others I've used
Have been using many camera apps currently. All have some or the other feature which I like. I use according to my purpose.
1. Camera Zoom FX: Using it for its Voice Activated feature and its Collage feature. Voice activated mode will click only when you make a noise or say click or cheeze etc. You can use it when you click your own pics or wanna have a group pic.
Use collage mode and click multiple pics and you'll get all of them in single pic. That's way quicker then click normal pics and then use collage.
It also has a stable indicator that indicates when the object or the phone is stable to click the pic.
2. Pro Capture: For providing many various Focus and Scene modes in one touch, especially the Macro mode and the Fibonacci Spiral is also one of the best feature it gives. The golden Spiral does make sense in pictures, I personally believe.
3. Fast Burst Camera: Name says it all. Soon I'm gonna check the Moto X for its continuous shots and if the result is better I might replace. But this app is quick good. It clicks like a machine gun. Some times even if I try to click it ones it quickly response to the second touch and takes another shot . Sorry that might be a negative point as well
4. Camera 2: This app is real fun if you like to take pictures and video like that of Old time (1940s, 1960s, etc), It has Sci-Fi mode similar to Green coloured Matrix like of stuff with number falling down in a line. Comic mode, Artistic mode. Best part of the app is that you cannot just click pictures but also take videos in those modes.
Well I used many others too but removed them for less or more their limited features.
I hope this might help you in any way. :good:

Im not one for fancy OP so lest cut to the chase. I have been working on this on and off for some time now and i am at a point i feel i can call it ALPHA.

What works?
Camera
Pan360
Split Capture
PhotoBooth
Selfie
Photo preview
HTC gallery
What needs some work?
Zoe camera wont open. ( if you choose Zoe options you will need to go to settings > apps > Camera and clear data to make it stop)
Camcorder (rotates the video when saving and cause the video to glitch)
Please have a valid Nandroid in case you want to go back. At a later date i can make an uninstall zip.
Special thanks to:
HTC
Google
Neo he pointed out that gallery was update to work without the security check.
Team Ecliptic for pushing me to get this working.

HI everybody,
K this camera apk was pulled from the MIUI rom port while doing extensive testing of the rom it's self just to see how the rom did. While doing this I noted with the camera all issues we have on the cm and nexus based roms are non existent on the MIUI camera, but the camera does have issues.
1. It has two issues one when it takes a photo's with the rear facing camera it saves it upside down for some reason
2. second issue i found is when you go to the front facing camera it glitches in the transition and you half to close it out and restart and then it'll be on the front facing camera and you half to do the same to get back to the rear facing camera NOTE: the front facing camera does not flip the image
Now initially I thought this might of been the miui rom its self so I grabbed the camera apk and jumped to the Nexus rom and IT WORKS. I currently use this camera as my daily driver despite its issues and even though I have purchased the Snap Camera, I just prefer the MIUI camera...
I would note I ran a search on the camera apk files name and found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/find-7/development/mod-oppocamera-settings-timer-scene-t3003030 I tried the zips they have and they don't seem to work on our phone.
Also I did not know who to credit for this. I'm sorry for that; if some one know's who pm me or comment. Thanks
personally i find 'BlueCam' delivers better photos than the MIUI, the only features that don't work is manual focus but the auto focus does a fine job and it has torch mode to take care of night photos which gets over the flash problem, its also free on the app store.

true that, I'm thinking it should be very possible for an app to utilize an existing camera app to take the picture and then parse it, if background elements are an issue a crop tool can be built it. I'll look into it after this coming week and see if i can come up with something. Won't be perfect but it'll be better than nothing

Regarding barcode scanning... it is not as seemless as barcode scanner or google goggles, but I had good success with QR droid which can use an existing picture to read a barcode.

That's what I'm getting at, if its possible to read from an image then it should be possible to have your camera take a snap shot, save it has an ordinary image and then have an app interpret it. At least in theory, I don't know how feasable it is yet
I use this camera app from f-droid app store its free and open source and also works well with flash
https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=camera&fdid=com.simplemobiletools.camera
Tried it with latest lineage os by ggow. Focus is fast and pictures are coming up great. There is no manual controls but this app is better than stock or Google camera app in my opinion anyway. Camera button also works to activate this app and to take snaps with. Developer also has gallery app in f-droid if you want to give it a spin.

The camera from F-droid is very limited and it does not work with flash. It works in a sense that flash can be permanently turned on and used as a light. The oppo camera however seems to work correctly. The only problem I encountered is switching between front and rear camera. Seems like usable camera to use when you need flash support. Otherwise open camera app is good and full featured app.

I find oppo camera good but pictures for not known reason turn out upside down - I really don't fancy switching them back manually.
Another good app is camera HDR. As mentioned in CyanogenMod description it just work well.
thanks. really nice. flash light photos works fine.
Does anyone have a recommendation on a Gallery app that actually knows what to do with portrait mode pictures? Seems like Google Photos is the only one that knows how to properly categorize/show portrait pictures. Every other gallery app I have used shows every portrait picture and the non portrait picture as it's own album. Clutters up a gallery really quick.
Any suggestions?

Thats easy - Focus Go

I hope this isn't too much off topic but felt like it was worth mentioning. My favorite all time gallery app if one hasn't tried it is Sony's Album app. To me it is hands down the best app when dealing with a lot of photos. There is a universal port here on XDA if anyone is interested, thank you.
just curious - if google photos works, why use anything else?
Sony Album app was always great and has been ported to work on pretty much any android phone

How does it handle pictures taken in portrait mode? Every other gallery app I've used creates a whole album for every portrait picture taken? So far I've only found Google Photos to handle portrait shots correctly.
