does anyone know a camera oriented rom or the best app for camera modes and features, I'm into phone photography and am trying to make the most out of my S4
Your best bet would be to search for the best camera with your preferences and get the apk file for said camera. As for a ROM, with as much time/effort it takes to build a ROM, I dont think there is such a ROM that you are looking for giving that not many people ask about or want one. I could be wrong tho. Find a nice slim custom ROM and set up your phone as you see fit.

I have some questions for all the cm 6 users out there. I tried this a while back and could not get the sprint visual voicemail to work and the camera seemed like it wasn't full resolution. I've done some searching but couldn't find a good answer to either of these so I need some help from all the users. All I want is visual voicemail and the camera to work properly. Thanks in advance.

So does this mean that nobody knows about cm6?

Just get the Sprint Voicemail apk and the Camera works just fine. Just cuz it doesn't fill the screen doesn't mean its not full resolution. The pics are 8mp if you set it to that setting.
Yeah I would notice the camera didn't necessarily appear to be full res but final pictures looked just as good. As far as VM, I used GVoice so I'm not enitirely sure there.

What kind of battery life is everybody getting?
How do I set GV in my phone as the primary VM. My phone says that Sprint doesn't support it. Any tips?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
As noted the sprint_vvm.apk needs to be found and installed.
The camera app in CM6 doesn't have the widescreen resolution.
Early on I bought Camera360 to see if the photos would come out better. I'm using that now and it supports the widescreen resolution. Has some other nice features like IS.
your 'issues' are old and have been resolved.
battery life depends on how you use your device.
how you device is configured/setup
what kernel you are using
i have run cm6 with my standard usage for over 28hrs w/ the snap kernel. some can't make 14hrs. /shrug same issue as with the Sense ROMs.
kernels available to CM6 are
snap
kingklix
stock

I'm running the current stable version of CM10 and love it except for one problem. The camera sucks now. It will not focus. It seems to be stuck on infinity even though in the settings I've changed it to everything from Auto to macro.
Is it possible to load just the stock camera on top of the CM camera module?

Can't run stock camera on cm due to drivers not playing well together. But U can run the android 4.2 camera. There are flash able zips all over the place for it. Only downside I've seen from it is if flash is on it'll crash gallery but that only happens to some people. Either way its worth a try sense flashing it won't replace the cm camera just runs along side it.

Thank you. THAT was a helpful answer.
Now I just gotta find that zip.

Well, Now it's really broke. I flashed the camera file from your link and when the new camera launches it crashes when I try to take a picture.
So it's gone from bad to worse...
I re-flashed the file 3 times with now the same results. Even the old camera is crashing now.
It's ashamed I can't get this working because I really love CM10 otherwise. Apparently it's just my device though as others seem to not be having this problem.
I feel like a dolt for having to ask this, but where is CM10 for this device? I checked the get cm website, and the development forum here, and couldn't find anything aosp except for miui.
BTW, a broken camera is a hallmark of anything CM.

Here's the link for the Sprint model.

Just browse up a level for different models and "nightlys".
It's great that this forum covers so much but unfortunately it also makes it difficult, even using search, to find anything.

Sounds like something went wrong with the flash. Maybe the lib files were missing.

Could it help to flash one of the recent "Nightlys"?
I've never done that because it's taken me so long to get the layout of all my apps and pages the way I like them. I know there's some way to back that up but that's for another post I guess. Too new to the whole rooting and ROM flashing process...
I don't think I ever had problems with the CM10 default camera, try a clean flash and try again, and yes, the 4.2 camera does fc on the gallery, sadly its the only reason I can't see myself using anything CM based , I love it, but the default camera basically throws the whole ROM off for me

Yeah it only fc if the flash is on but that's a killer for me. Only hope is when cm 10.1 hits SG3.

Yea pretty much, I use the flash a lot, and I know, let's hope for the best

I had the same problem.. sorta.. after snapping off a photo, the camera would just freeze, then warning / pop up stating 'gallery not responding'.. I ended up dumping and starting over. I'm using the CM10 build date of 11/13 and so far so good, camera and gallery working correctly now.
I'm going to fall back to stock as my cell signal has not been working well since I moved to custom roms. Also I can't get on at&t's wifi which is helpful at work
Anyway the one thing I will miss the most is the latest version of the messaging app. Is this something I can back up and restore in stock? Latest works so much better at group messaging than gosms

Ask ka dev who has is in their ROM how they did or what walk-through would work best.
Is it possible for us to get a modified camera app like that? The new thing called ultra pixel would be very good.

Just a heads up, the "ultra pixel" is a type of camera. It's hardware, not software.

I know it's hardware but it was showed in portal news, someone modified another camera app to compress 8mp photos to 2mp. Same pixel count but smaller image. So that's making difference in photo quality. That's what I mean by ultra pixel

You can modify the Vignette application and it will work. Done that and tried on Nexus 4 but I sucks in telling what is a good image and what is bad so I cannot tell the different much.
The other features would be also great.

This is an epic idea. I have been itching to have ISO settings, really badly. That app looks like its for ICS, but that might only be because I read the first couple posts...
Subbed.
I'd like to see if this goes anywhere. I pushed the apk to my system apps and only got FC's on the camera over and over again, gallery was fine though.

I'm not a dev, maybe someone work on it. I pushed apk to system too, as it's based on aosp, I think these features are not imposslible for us. We need to get some attraction from devs :fingers-crossed:
That work for me but I have always a better photo with stock Camera app...
I know this is an old phone, I am going to turn them into gps systems, mainly of course they will be able to wifi. Download apps and such, but their main purpose will be for gps navigation.
So what is the best rom, one that everything works plus great battery life.
Phones won't have any cell service, just wifi, so cell phone service isn't important.
Nvm wrong phone lol

Stock rom is GB, so really not a good choice.
Best might be the wrong word, so what ics or jb romm is fully functional? I am looking at threads the ones I am looking at the camera doesn't work and so on.
Need camera to work, 4G not needed, but navigate without camera is useless.

Give cyanmobile a shot. It is gingerbread so everything works and to top it off it has many ics/jb features ported over. Plus it has a massive amount of settings to customize it to your liking.
