Stock camera app on GNL - T-Mobile HTC One (M8)

On the GNL the options on my HTC camera for dual capture, video, pan 360 and zoe all disappear. I can't take burst shots and can't go to the gallery straight from the camera app either. Is there any way to fix this besides just using the Google camera? It's annoying because I really prefer using the stock HTC cam app.

You sir are not alone. My camera app is also doing the same thing. So far I've tried switching to onboard storage. Didn't work. Tried disabling Google Now hotword detection from any screen. Didn't work. Now i'm switching from Dalvik to ART. Fingers crossed but I doubt it will help.
Over the weekend I got it to work by uninstalling all of the HTC app updates, then reinstalled all but the ZOE app. It worked for a few minutes, but after a little while the problem came back.
The Google camera for the time being is going to have to be my default camera until this is fixed. It sucks because the HTC camera app is really cool.
I should also note that this is the first time in the history of using Android that my phone hasn't been rooted. It took nearly six years for that to happen.

Using the camera while on the phone hack?

Is it possible for you to be able to use the camera while on the phone. Is there a hack for that?

very interesting...
only the STOCK Samsung camera App will give you that message
but if you use any of the Market camera Apps like FX camera or paper camera, vinegar camera, or any other camera they all works even during a phone call

Hmmm have you tried using a stock rom?
Auto focus doesn't work for me either. it SEEMS to be working on video mode, but definitely doesn't work on photo mode. I believe it has never been working for me, and I always thought why doesn't samsung phone camera autofocus well like my low end HTC phone (HTC One V). I'm on AOKP nightly, which is actually pretty stable right now.
On HTC phone, even when just previewing the pictures to be taken, it autofocuses when the camera gets closer to an object, but this one doesn't do anything. When I press the shutter button, it takes and sometimes focuses correctly, sometimes blurry (especially when too close to the object, which is not a problem with HTC phone). I can long press the shutter key and i will be able to see if it focuses or not before releasing the key, but why doesn't this adjust right away when preview is shown without touching the shutter key?

Photosphere on non-Nexus devices with the 'Google edition' camera app

Here's the camera (and gallery) app from the Google Edition phones, which lets you record and view Photosphere images. The file has been pulled directly from Jerry's GS4 GE system dump, no tampering at all.

Thanks for this! I uninstalled the stock gallery from cm10.1 then installed this apk no problem. It shows as a user app in TiBu. Then, as expected, when installing the latest cm nightly, the stock gallery was back and this app was still there but with some graphical glitches in the interface. So I uninstalled this and renamed the stock gallery to galleryold. I was unable to install this again until I uninstalled the stock gallery. All is fine again but each time I update my nightly, I'll need to uninstall the stock gallery, disabling isn't enough. Do you know how to write a script to stop the gallery being rewritten?

Tapatalked that shiznit.
still the same FC on i9300:
1. Turn on flash
2. focus on something in the near (tap on the screen to focus)
3. Push the button to make a photo.
Result: delayed reaction of the phone, gallery crashes.
Second FC: Scene description (under Settings in camera) is placed wrong
No buddy, as far as i know, have to flash every time

I use Ultimarom v 13. I also asked some friends with stock roms and they get the same behavior as I described
once again: if the flash is set on, tap on the screen (somewhere in the middle), camera should only focus the picture and turn the flash on for this time. Then press the button to make photo..

Notice that the focus ring doesn't turn red when it is out of focus?
Snap something REALLY near, it should turn red but it didn't. Focus ring always show green on mine.
Anyone have this issue?

No one knows for sure.
But I don't recommend this camera app.
Focus ring is bugged. Doesn't display red when out of focus. It's always green, you won't know pic is in focus or not.
Photosphere don't stitch in background. Take 2 photosphere consecutively, the first sphere won't process in background. Overall slower process.
Here is a other thread for AOSP camera and on this post is a link for 4.3 camera with focus fix and other layout http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43100961&postcount=45

Camera flash doesn't ever flash?

Can't get my Camera to ever take a picture with flash. I also don't see a setting to set flash? Am I the only one having issues with this? Where Did you guys find the setting to turn flash on and off for photos? Any help is appreciated!

You have to set HDR to auto and you can toggle the flash.
If you want more settings for the camera, you can also use a 3rd party app like A Better Camera. It allows you to control all the camera settings like flash, exposure compensation, ISO, white balance, etc etc etc.
