lg Camera for better video performance - Nexus 4 Themes and Apps

Tried out the lg Camera and Camcorder app today, and my oh my, it comes recommended, lads!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCamera
While it can't pull something that's beyond the N4 sensor capabilities, it certainly does a lot better than the stock camcorder with constant and oud refocusing and compression artifacts. As a matter of fact, auto-focus, albeit a bit slow, is mostly stable and the app can pull 20Mbit/s recording over the stock's 12 with noticeably cleaner results at full 1080p. I did notice some force stops while messing around with effects and tones, so skip those options, but for everyday videos y'all should definitely give this app a go, namsayin'?

Okay it does not seem to like setting options to 30Mbit, avoid that or you need a restart. 20MBit is just fine however, just mind the large file size.

My stock camera is better. Pictures looked like crap with that app

Just tried it. Its even worse than stock camera. I am using Huawei stock camera on N4. Much better than stock camera. Focus works great on videos and pictures.

You will find all the stock huawei apps in there. Weather app and launcher doesn't work. Anyway you can download the camera apk.

"for better video performance"
Tried a lot of things, @20mbit recording of the lg Camcorder takes the cake. But I'ma try out the Huawei one for sure!
edit: force close @1080P
edit2: @720p the framerate fluctuates between 23fps and 30fps.

The photo quality indeed improved, bit the front camera is very laggy, but its hás a noticeble quality improvement

I can confirm that this app still works on 4.4.2 and on ART runtime, and still produces the best video, set to 20Mbit/s, of any app I've tried on the Nexus 4.

Best camera app for the Galaxy S3?

Where camera app for the Galaxy S3 produces the highest image quality? I'm going to use the stock camera app as the baseline.

Camera Zoom FX works well for me with the exception of a couple things.
1) Loads slower than stock camera.
2) No video capability.
I really like that I can click anywhere on the screen to take the pic. I don't have to click a particular button.
yup.
ProCapture is nice.
I'm an i9300 user, but can't you guys use hyper-x's modded stock camera app? or does it not work for you guys

Have anyone done a comparison between Vignette and ProCapture? What makes you think ProCapture is better? My search suggest that Vignette's 3.1MP Superfine option produces better quality than the stock app. I don't know what kind of options that ProCapture have that pushes it above the competition.
I prefer using the Stock cam overall, but I do like to use Aviary and Pixlr-o-matic every now and again. FxCamera looks cool, but the lack of live filters is a big usability issue for me.
Pro capture is a good one for power use. Pudding Camera looks good also, but I didn't really like the lack of options in it. Also pictures didn't seem as sharp as with the Stock cam. I can't say much about Vignette based on the free demo, which isn't good enough to make me want to buy it. However, it does seem to have some nice features for taking shots and editing them.

[Q] What is the Best camera

Hi all
Please tell me what app of camera you are using actually
Sent from my LG me 350 using neighbors wifi
When I was using my P350, although it consumed lots of space, my best choice was LINE Camera... It helped by adjusting exposure automatically and by applying built-in filters, sharpness and colors can be repaired...

You can use camera 360.. free on playstore..

I like Google Camera app most, its simple. With the LTE version there is gyroscope so you can do photosphere.
Trust me, "Nexus Cam: KitKat Camera". I've tried a lot of apps and this one still blows my mind sometimes. The HDR mode is fantastic.
I've added proof.

The one by Radcam? I checked the app and there is no HDR in the screenshots, but THERE IS on my phone. I've got no clue how or why. Either way, even without HDR the camera takes good pictures, a lot better then the stock app which was crap.
Need picture capturing tips

Hi, i have also installed this nexus camera app and i can also see an HDR option in it, but when i take pics after turning this option ON i dont see any difference as compared to the stock camera app. In fact i rate stock camera app to be better than this nexus camera app.
But the pic which u had posted still tries to convince me to keep using nexus camera, the pic is marvelous .
Anyways m just asking u for any tips which u can give to me so that i can also capture some great pictures using this camera app, ur response is awaited

Well, the reason I searched for another app was that the stock one took blurry pictures and had very few settings.
Now for taking pictures: always take more then one. I have maybe 10-15 pictures of that fire out of which I only kept about 4 of them. Many will come out blurry or simply not satisfying enough. Try to center the picture well and play with the exposure settings until you find the right one. Also try tilting the phone up and down so that it modifies it's contrast and brightness automatically and you'll eventually see the picture you're looking for on the screen. Snap some pictures and move it slightly from picture to picture so that each is a tiny bit different. One of them will be THE ONE.
It's not a great camera, but I've seen a lot worse.
Protip: Nexus Camera allows you to make timelapses (Video -> Settings/Options -> Timelapse)
I honestly can't tell the difference between the stock app and other camera apps. The pictures they produce look very similar to me. Am I visually impaired ?

I got photosphere working too.
Download camera libs from http://www.apkmirror.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/m_preview_GoogleCamera_libs.zip
copy ".so" files to system/lib but do not override existing libs, only copy which are not in system/lib folder.
As always, first backup backup backup.
How is it? Really fast as said in op ? Can anyone share screen shots... Please

You're saying that on your Nexus 4 with THAT Camera version you can actively select HDR? You do have the HDR icon appearing when 16:9? Try it..
At least one other person from androidpolice got the same issue.

Noticeably faster HDR on my N4, and the front facing camera, which used to be a laggy mess, now runs fluidly! That's something I've been longing for since Jellybean days, so good move, Google.

I totally lost HDR on my N4. No icon or anything.

I changed to full resolution and it enabled HDR as an option. At 16:9 / 6mp, the option disappears.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
the flash bug should have been fixed. the NO-HDR on 16:9 "feat" does still exist. just to be clear.
IF you select a format ratio of 4:3 on either the front or the rear camera you WILL get HDR.
IF you select a ratio of 16:9 on either of the cameras you WON'T get HDR.
HDR from 2.5 on will ONLY work on ratio 4:3. that's not weird, it is rather unacceptable.
I still have the flash issue as of last night
