[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.

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.

Cybershot force closes after u exit it. thats the funny thing.. i am on existenz rom.. superior auto works fine, but video recorder lags.. everythin looks the same to me, even the camera clarity.. thx anyway to the op for sharing this...

Incapable of HDR?

Why does our devices doesn't have an HDR option? XS, XAS, and Ion have very nice hardware, especially the camera. I don't know if it supports HDR or Sony just didn't develop the software for our cameras. I'm going to install a port of Xperia Z camera and I remembered that HDR doesn't work on CM10.

I think I remember someone mentioning that the camera module inside of the Xperia S is not capable of HDR. If you want to take a HDR image however you might be able to find a third party app that takes three pictures in quick succession and alters them into one image.

Post a photo here taken from camera

Hi guyz,
Sony has packed some awesome features and hardware in this mid-range phone.
Post cool photo taken from Xperia M camera.
And if you like someone's photo then give him thanks by pressing thanks button!

Ok, mayby features are rich like for phone of that class but camera is ****ty.
It's oversatureted with blue color, not only on build in display.
And Focus/Auto Focus is worst in this phone than with any other i have. And the video recording is horiible, zero, ZERO details, video is blurr.
If we talk about camera in low class then Yes, its good.
If we talk about it in any term then its

I'll post an example of the oversaturated blue. My ceiling is painted white not blue. Even the LED lights up blue when I view it.

The quality isn't that bad. All at 3MP.

how come you guys get to have really good place to take pictures? lol...
heres my part ,5mp,light source from the room lighting and table lamp, did some color correction ,no cropping, used ProCapture app(by the way , I think this app really improved the handling of the autofocus,faster)

I've teste, hmmm... 12 camera apps. Camera Zoom FX is the best.
I noticed that uor camera dont lack quality, the focus ist the problem.

I agree, if a normal user who bought Xperia M and uses the stock camera app to take a picture, they are going to get a really bad picture... The AF isn't better until you use a third party camera app.I prefer ProCapture for that... But even then , low light picture are still bad..

Yeah, low light videos is a slideshow.
Im wondering, i have the same issue in Lg L9. On stock rom low light videos was excelent, on CM it was like in our XM. I hope that in our case its the software issue like in L9.

Just came back from the mountains...

[Q] How to improve Sony Z1 Compact camera?

The photos that I take with my Sony Z1 Compact are consistently worst than those taken with my Moto X and Galaxy SIII. There is usually too much noise, too much post processing, too few details and even some strange things as objects that form diagonal lines become pixelated.
I've tried to use other apps like Camera 5 Fv and Google Camera, but the results are still bad.
My phone is using uprooted stock rom, kit Kat.
Is there a way to improve it's camera? Will installing the ported Z2 camera do any difference?

I find that the original gallery sucks, makes pictures look worst than they are. I'm using QuickPic now. Showcases the pictures in all its full glory. Give it a shot?

Unfortunately, KK meant that QuickPic can't delete photos from the SD card, so I have quite reluctantly removed it... Sticking with the original gallery for now.

I've been very impressed with the Z1 Compact camera. I think you just need the right settings.
I take pictures on:
Manual Mode
8MP
White Balance auto
Exposure value 0
Single autofocus
ISO auto
Metering centre
Image stabiliser off.
This give me less detail but very little noise as well.

Just fiddle with the manual settings. I find the auto one very bad. Besides i prefer the 20.7mp to 8mp hdr. it may seem to have more noise but overall quality is much better.

I think u have no idea or u just don't record..

In my work i record at least 2 movies a day, one in 4k and one in full HD 60 FPS. I dont see any differents in quality watching films from 9.1 and 10 on 50 inch tv.

This is Huawei, like on my 20X they destroy speaker after update.

Well by one tap before i could set the zoom easily now i have to shift the slider multiple times to get the required zoom, there is also a pink/purple shadow only visible in camera while shooting under specific light settings but not visble in taken photos, other than that dont notice anything different, ah one second there is much glare and halo around lights now in all auto settings and to get perfect photos i have to manually set the exposure
