[MOD][JB] .96 FW>Camera Mod Cyber-shot™ For Xperia S [Multi res, SuperiorAuto]

Ok so since the the .197 leak, and the new .200 leak JB firmwares for Xperia S i kinda whant the Superior Auto the .68 JB leak had and the JB from Xperia T,V,TX and Xperia Z and ZL, but sadly waiting for an official release of our beloved JB for Xperia S developers leave Xperia S aside till then. So i tested the "[MOD][JB] Camera Mod Cyber-shot™ For Xperia T / TX / V "Updated 13-04-2013" " by Rizal Lovins and found out that the Cyber-Shot mods for Xperia T,V,TX and Z,ZL work just fine. And actualy the Z,ZL mod is better. So without further adoo i invite you to flash over the Z,ZL Cyber-Shot mod.
I tested the Z and ZL mod on the Xperia S with the .197 and i can confirm it works fine.
Do it at your own risk!
Improvements besides the best mod given by Rizal
1. It kinda fixes the purple tint (i see the difference, i dont know if you will)
2. Multiresolution 12MP , 9MP, 8MP, 5MP, 2MP(4:3), 2MP(16:9)
3. SuperiorAuto+ witch works superbly (to my surprise)
4. It fixes the Ratio in the frontfaceing camera (now the 16:9 is switched to its real possition)
5. Multiresoluton on the frontfaceing camera 1MP(4:3), 1MP(16:9), VGA(4:3)
6. It fixes the 1080P recording lag (i see the difference, i dont know if you will)
7. Multiresolution video FullHD(16:9), HD(16:9), VGA(4:3), MMS(4:3)
8. Multiresolution video frontfaceing camera HD(16:9), VGA(4:3), MMS(4:3)
9. Its fast and crisp
10. All the mods made by Rizal.
UPDATE: SCRATCH THAT BLA BLA BLA I TESTED IT ON .96 FW AND WORKS LIKE A CHARM ONLY BUG I CAME ACROSS WAS A BIT OF LAYOUT CHANGE AND THE BLACK SCREEN WHEN COMMING BACK FROM ALBUM WITCH BY THE WAY HAS A WORKARROUND JUST SWITCH TO FRONT FACEING CAMERA AND BACK.
Dont forget its a Share.

Sented pieces by pieces through the web ┐('～`)┌

Already flashed the xperia z mod but havent tested yet to see whats change.
Ill try to test it later and compre to previous stock app from leaked jb

Thank you. Flashed it but I don't think there is any improvement with this mod. Auto Scene still captures pictures with purple tint when flash is on. Quality is stille the same and video recording still lags.

I think theres a bug on xperia z mod, after taking pictures and you look at the picture you took. When you press back button to camera, the screen of the camera is only black. I need to close the camera to recent apps for it to work again.

I'am also experience this sadly though the quality is greatly improved
EDIT: Found a workaround. In Superior auto mode, the bug triggers however if the picture was accessed during normal mode, the bug was not triggered. hope it helps

I just tried a version made specially for 2012 devices. It worked, kinda.
Check this link for my full feedback. I will see what this Z version has of different.

If your camera lens is not clean then try cleaning.
Otherwise video recording bug is the hot issue in JB update.

ok my lens is clean and i noticed one thing more if i disable image stabilizer there is a minor improvement and it is focusing a bit quick........
but i would say that focus issue is also present in xperia t and sp as well....i have watched videos on u tube..........

Yes, it is annoying

Has Sony release some information about the bugs in the .200 and .211 JB updates? It's annoying as hell being unable to use the full capabilities of my phone.

i really feel strange that why sony dont give attention to these problems...... Sony is a big name in Imaging World but sadly their devices are not upto the mark.... .Look at nokia ....Wow .! How best hardware they Made ...specially Camera...:good: i hope they will use android in upcoming years...:fingers-crossed:

The lastest (Z1 or M) Social Camera is the best suggest for you!

I'd just prefer the Xperia M camera. Unless you have kitkat, try the one below.
Try this one, Google has added some new features. Though I don't know if its compatible for the Xperia S

the Xperia M camera will only work if you have installed Z1 Camera Mod...
I suggest you to install the eXisten ROM for Z1 Camera & others smart social camera apps by Sony

can you give me the download link..please...i want to know is there any major bugs in that rom?

Using 12mp Camera in modded SL

I used Cyanogenmod for a long time, now I am in Carbon rom (latest KitKat). But problem is all the roms for SL are based on S. As a result, the highest quality of camera is 8mp. Though, SL's stock camera is 12mp.
Is there any way I can capture 12mp sharp images in my SL? Would using alternative camera apps help? I think not. So what to do?

Even Xperia S stock camera is 12 mp. Use the Google camera, it will give You support for 12mp resolution.

I will try and report. I hope it works

My Opinion? I'm really disappointed of the camera quality of this phone. In general.
My old Arc S (with stock ROM) takes better photos in the same condition of this z1c (with stock ROM). And I'm refer to the "same condition"...(rooted but not unlocked bootloader, stock ROM, same enviroment's light or dark, same subject).
I love Sony and their philosophy on mobile phones and camera sensor, but this bionz sensor (best mobile camera of 2014) isn't really best for me.
So, to answer your question, I didn't notice differences between stock lollipop 5.1.1 sony camera and this update 2.0.
Only better UI, that is great on usability of app. But, by my tests, no change on quality or shot speed.
I flash this update because the new UI it's better, and thanks very much to developers that make this port possible :good::good:.
At last, I will say something obvious, but the best camera quality of this phone was with Jelly Bean 4.3. Bad to say, but in my experience it is, clearly It's just my opinion

This porting have some problem with noise? The other portings of z5 camera in my xperia z2 (expecially in front camera) produce some noise in image.
