I couldn't find it in the LG G3 software.
Apps would be:
Lapse it (my fav because you can turn off the screen and it will be still shooting)
A Better Camera (not as powerful but still an alternative)
Have fun

[Q] Turn driving mode into a DVR

hey guys,
im curious if its out there or some one ever thought about doing something like that.
is there a way when you turn on Driving mode or hack it to activate the camera and record. just like a personal DVR that you would buy to put in your car and when you drive it records what happens in front?..
last night i though about it if something did exist?.
anyways any tips would be awsome

So you want to use the camera like a video recorder?? because it does that already at 1080p

Well a better blackbox application would be to record gps data, and say the last 1 or 5 minutes of video. That way if you got into an accident, you'd have a record, but you wouldn't be recording 8GB of video for a long drive. Someone make that app, it could run whenever Navigation is on.
That's called a Black Vue HD camera... Look them up good product i have one

yes that would be an option of getting a REAL DVR but if you already have a mount for you phone and you have a idea about if its possible, you would want to see if its realistic.
what would be nice with a app that could turn on the camera recorder at 720P and record at 24 frames with the screen off to save energy. also i would have 40gb of space.. enough for hours of driving.
but that is a nice quality DVR that Black Vue HD camera
Auto guard from play store. It's what I Use best one I've found so far.

[Q] How do I get 60fps?

Hello, how I can improve my lg camera g3? I watched that there are some mod for this, really better?
If you know which is the one that works best ask me through the link =)
and as for the shutter speed or the display when you activate the camera something? because if you move the phone is with lag or loses sharpness

G4 camera ported to g3 [bugs included]
There's an thread by @LastStandingDroid with some apps ported from the G4 including the camera with manual mode but there r some bugs..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/lg-g4-apps-t3102687
I had that "not saving" pictures problem, I ended up "resetting" the whole phone and the problem solved

[Q] Videos not saving

Hello,
My LG G3, with CyanogenMod 12.1 on it (latest version to which I've just updated, but the nightly of 2 weeks ago had the same issue) isn't saving videos I take.
I tried using Google Camera and the native Camera app.
It seems if I reboot my phone, I can get the first video saved on Gallery, but further ones won't save anymore.
I don't think it's lack of space, because I have 3GB free. Even 2 second videos won't save.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Nuno
Might be a permission issue
Where is the default save location for your gallery items?
Hey,
Thank you. I was trying to find some option to change the save location, but the thing is that I don't seem to find that option anywhere!! (in the two camera apps)
When it saves, it seems to go to /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/
Also, I've just realized that if I use the front camera, it ALWAYS saves immediately. However, when I use the back camera, it will save only very rarely.
Very strange!
Thank you very much,
Nuno
If using 4K switch to FullHD resolution and all will be fine :good:

Sir... you rock here! That indeed seems to be the solution.
But, why doesn't 4K work, then? Is this a bug?
Thank you very much,

Best replacement camera app for LGG4?

Has anyone tried any replacement camera apps for the LGG4? Don't get me wrong, I like the stock camera but I do think it lacks a little in features (in auto mode). I tried 'Open Camera' and I really like the extra features but It only has 4x zoom instead of the 8x the stock camera handles. I also don't know if any 3rd party camera apps take full advantage of the G4's laser focus and color spectrum analyzer? Another feature that I like in 'Open Camera' is the ability to select scenes such as back light, indoors, macro and candle light. I know the G4 stock app has automatic scene selection but I like a little more control.
So what do you guys think? The big thing is if any 3rd party apps take full advantage of the G4's hardware? If so, what are some feature packed camera apps?
ProShot for me. Little slow to focus but with ISO 50 and NR off the daylight shots are just amazing.

Has it some filters to preview a shot before take it? that's the only thing I miss from the stock camera, the ability to use filters before taking pictures, because sometimes don't have time or mood to postprocess. Thanks!

I woulden't be over concerned by the low zoom capabilities of Open camera. Zoom only degrades the quality and sharpness of the picture anyway... If you really have to use it, i woulden't recommend you go beyond 4x. Other thing, no 3rd party camera app can fully utilize all of the G4's features and capabilities. It's simply not possible, as of yet anyway. So, my advice to you and everyone else is, use the default camera app as it is quite powerfull if you know how to manage the manual settings .
Here is a link that explains in detail the manual mode:

Dude, stock app is best. Learn how to use manual.

I can use the manual camera ok but only for planed shots...takes too much time to catch random shots! Feature rich auto mode is what I am wishing for!

Hm yes, good point. Lol. I used camera360 once, that was good.
Try AZ Camera, NR is a lot better than stock and manual control is still possible.

Anyone seen a camera app that has a fancy animated facial recognition reticle like the Galaxy Edge Plus/Note 5's have? It actually moves across the screen and targets a detected face in the scene. I know that it is completely gingerbread, but it would be a pretty cool feature!

Found that there's a free demo for this at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riseupgames.proshot_free
Which is nice to try it out. Very restrictive demo, allowing only 2 full res shots. I'm keen to try out the low ISO with the NR off you mention (as I've yet to see a photo at this handset level beat the G4 in a decent lit outdoor shot), but my handset went hot as hell whilst running the demo, possibly showing its using all the available processer power but a bit unsettling for potential longer usage.
:edit: unistalled and let handset cool down. Reinstalled and handset ran uncomfortably hot again. Shame, but thanks for the recommendation.
Hi, just got an LG G4 today and tried a few camera apps. Stock is great and since it has a manual raw mode, no need for 3rd party apps imho.
ProShot is nice and does show a low res preview of dngs in its viewer (useful to send them to PS Express for instance); BUT I have noticed that it does only goes to 0,6s in manual exposure (while stock goes to 30s). So for (ocasional) dng viewing I will use Slingshot Portfolio and for the processing, PS Express, much friendlier than Photomate (which yields slightly sharper pics, but with much worse color balance...)
Snap HDR Camera has an interesting low light mode that merges multiple exposures to increase detail / lower noise, BUT then again you can use manual long exposures in the stock app, which in dark conditions will give better results.
For panos I prefer Google's camera interface and options .
Anyway, those are my quick impressions.
You made my day! Thank you!
This one (especially ability to switch off NR) gives me the best from the G4
Tweaking sharpness and NR should be native and available in Stock camera app in manual mode
Shame on you LG!

Well, just tried, and ProShot's no NR setting is amazing! Thanks

hey Kemby13,
what exactly do you think can proshot or camera fv-5 or other camera apps not utilize from the hardware?
I'm considering buying the LG G4 but have similar thoughts as the thread starter. I'm comfortable with manual modes on cameras and shoot/edit raw with my DSLR but I'm looking for more or better auto modes than the stock camera app can offer. Also lots of reviews show that the auto mode of the G4 is not as good as images taken in auto mode with other smartphones (I'm not speaking of what the LG camera is capable of once it is used in manual mode). I thought that maybe other apps give better images in auto modes than the stock app (plus more options/scene modes). I often find myself in situations where I don't have the time to setup in manual mode but would like to tell the app to at least use a fast shutter speed (sports mode) etc.
my second concern is because I love custom roms. and even though there are hardly any out there for the G4 I'd still try the few available ones and would need a good camera app. Proshot etc will work on any rom (yes, the shutter speed is reduced to max. 0,7).
But what else would I be losing?
To the thread starter: have you reached a solution? I'd be very curious to know.
Thx and greetz,
vercetti.
Proshot doesn't have HDR that I can find. I don't recall if Camera FV-5 does but I prefer the custom modes of Proshot to FV-5.
I would settle for an app that can take pictures using flash in half the time that mine currently does.
I am waiting for Almalence's Better Camera to support camera api2 on the LG G4, so we can test its SUPER mode on our phone, similar to Google Camera's HDR+. I wonder how it would compare to LG's own Night mode.
According to the developper, it's planned and in alpha stage.
Did you guys find any app that can get to 30" shutter speed? It seems like I can only get that with the stock app.

hi there, updates on this? i think proshot now is optimized to lg g4. anyone confirm?
