Best camera app for LG Optimus G Pro - LG Optimus G Pro

I'm looking for some opinions on a replacement camera app for my OG Pro. With all the options like the leaked 4.3 app, CM Focal, Camera FX... Etc. What are your opinions. Looking for full screen view finder, non intrusive, full featured and fast shooting.

Actually non. Because I personally didn't find any app that does the dual camera and dual video like the stock camera app does.

If you want full screen with stock app, just change the resolution to 10mp. Full screen means you have to crop the image because of the aspect ratio of the sensor. I'd rather have the full image and crop later if I want.

I have yet to actually use the dual feature, just seems gimmicky and trying to aim at 2 needed pictures, I don't want to see my "O" face personally.

Focal does the trick for me. Non intrusive, quick shots and has plenty of options. Like stated, dual camera is useless and is just a gimmick.

Thanks guys. After using the 3 options for a few days. I think my daily is going to be the 4.3 stock camera. Dual camera is a fun option, but I would never actually use it for shots.

Focal has way more options and effects built in IMO. Only thing it does not have is the dual camera which I do not care about, it is a gimmick, you may use it a few times to impress friends then it gets old once they all see it.

My experiences with Focal have been very buggy with both my G Pro and S4 Active.

ProCapture is the best. It can turn on/off "Exposure Reset", so we can enhance photos quality of G Pro (a little bit dark in most of photos).

Since you're all bashind the dual camera feature i'm posting this because i'm a very happy user to have the feature and i use it all the time for videos, don't know why you're calling it gimmicky just because you personally don't use it, bought my ogp for 1.power 2.screen 3.ui 4.dual camera :cyclops:

To the OP: do you ever go to torrent sites? If you don't, and you think it's wrong, then you probably won't get why it's so hard to get a good camera on the android phones. See, it has to do with what is known as intellectual property rights. Some people think they own code. And they want to be paid lots of money when really they should be getting paid sweat shop wages.
All it would take is some coding and our expensive phones would be able to cut into the sales of expensive cameras. But the big corporations have to protect their profits.
Why do you think Apple waited so long, too long, to release a big iPhone? Because they knew it would hurt their tablet sales.
Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.

So, you're asking if the camera can be modified to operate while on the phone? I don't know if the stock camera can, but the MIUI camera can function while playing music, while the stock cannot.
Stock can't, but any other 3rd party app can be used while in-call..

Like it has been said, Third party cameras will work. I am a fan of the MIUI camera. Search around for the APK file.
Well, I know that they had stock camera software hacked on the vibrant and they added the GPS location feature to it to maintain privacy.

I'm not sure what modifications were done beyond just the camera.apk but I know a few Roms for the Epic Touch 4G (Sprints version of the SGS2) has it. You might check their Dev section.

I don't see the point of this app to share pictures? Pixel~O~ Matic is way superior app with way more and better quality filters. Share to twitter and Facebook. Always could do this natively. Plus the app andmadeshare can share to multiple social networking sites at once already. I uninstalled the app after 10 minutes playing with it.

It's a bug with ICS roms.

What is your favorite Galaxy S3 exclusive feature?

Of the many features Samsung included in the Galaxy S3, what is your favorite (or one of them) and why? Even if it isn't exclusive to the phone, I'm curious to know.
Personally, and I didn't think this would be one of them when I heard about it, I LOVE Smart Stay. I usually use my phone a lot to browse and read forums and other internet documents. My old phone was constantly turning off the screen while I read a long post. My Galaxy S3 never turns it off. One of the best features of the phone imo. It's all the little things that work together to make this phone so great.
So what is your favorite feature of the phone?

Any way to disable edge-zooming in the stock browser

It drives me insane when I'm using the device one-handed and trigger this "feature" when I scroll near the edge of the screen...
Same here especially when trying to bring up the quick controls.

There seems to be no option. The browser itself is one of the best stock browsers I've ever used. But I want to punch sammy in the throat at times for not allowing that to be turned off.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I agree I would also like it to be disabled. The other big annoyance in the stock browser is the double tap to zoom doesn't work (over zooms every time - naturally you have to be in desktop view to see this). There is a setting to alter it but it doesn't help. Firefox works correctly but I end up using the stock browser most of the time and just pinching.
I no longer have this problem. I was stock AT&T, then rooted, then running International ROM with a stock browser that doesn't have the edge zooming. Yes, it did annoy me when I had it.
Wow! You're right! I also changed to a different rom a while back but kind of forgot about the problem. I thought I was being more careful I guess. No! I forgot only because the problem was gone and didn't notice! Yet another reason to get off stock! Great info, big :Thumbup:
