[Q] Sense 2.1 camera on 3.0/3.5 Rom???

Hey everyone, I love the Sense 3.0/3.5 roms, but have always had problems with the camera. Either the video is choppy, or if it's not choppy, no one can view the video files that I send over mms. Seems like I read something about porting the 2.1 camera into the 3.0 roms and I'm wondering if this is possible? If so, how?
Thanks!

So I translated this as best I could...Is porting the 2.1 camera to a 3.0 rom as easy as just replacing the APK in /System/App? Seems like there would have to be more to it than that. Basically, I love the 3.0 and 3.5 roms, but having a fully functional video camera is really important to me.
Thanks

omg helarious

you made me crack up man. I read the post and i was like, oh i wanna know too!
I look at first response.... SAY WUT!!!!!

So far I've tried replacing "HTCCamera.apk" in /data/system.app with the APK from Skyraider 4.3 and replacing the camera lib files that I can identify, but it hasn't worked. The camera/camcorder comes up, but then fc's if I try to take a picture/video. I've reset permissions and that doesn't seem to work. When I replace any of the lib files I've found that I don't even get past the splash screen on a reboot.
What am I missing? Is what I'm trying to do even possible?

Anyone???

Bringing this to the front, as I'm after the same goal. Sense 3.0 ROM, but a stable camera/video recorder that does 720p smoothly like stock.

Success!...sort of.
I have found a workaround for my issues with sending videos via text, at least on a 2.1/3.0 hybrid rom. I've been using WildStang83's Hybrid Speed and while the 720p recording works fine, any video that I sent via MMS was not able to be viewed by the recipient. I found this MIUI camera and installed it and finally had success!
I tried the MIUI cam out on one of the new 3.5 roms, and unfortunately it did not solve the problem of the choppy video.
Here's the apk for the MIUI cam.

Just tried it, not a fan. Doesn't give much in options. I don't like the sound effects of the video recorder of which you can't turn off. Looks like there is a 30min limit too. How do you know if this is 720p? Just says high 30m or low 30m...
Camera seems to work fine though, just not sure if takes pics at max resolution 8m?

I agree. the MIUI camera has absolutely no options. Id love a perfectly working camera. Thats the only thing that stops me from using some of the newer roms. I take a lot of pictures and videos and need one that works.

[Q] t989 with slim ben rom can't record video in low quality formats

Hello, i have the t989 and loaded the slim bean rom on it and everything works perfectly. However, Previously with the stock rom I could record in lower quality formats like 240, etc, but now in the video camera the lowest quality setting it will let me record in is 480p. Is there a way to record the lower quality videos. my wife like to take short small videos that can be sent via whats app to family.

Anyone have any info?

yeah im running slim i checked every where i dont see any other option try downloading ICS camera and see if they have the option in there its relatively the same cam

Thanks I downloaded every camera I could find on the store, Camera JB+, ICS Camera, Camera 360, Camera+, none of them give the option.

did you tri camera fx or something like that thats another popular one .. just a thought man trying to help you lol

Thanks. Yeah, tried that one too. The apps must just take the settings from the rom and only use what is available according to the rom. I'd prefer to not go back to the stock rom if possible, but need to look for one that supports lower video qualities.

Modded Camera apk?

So for a few months now Ive been searching xda high and low for this, whAt I'm looking for is the htc camera apk that has all the normal features, as well as Raw AND ZOE camera options on it.
I've been able to find 1 or the other (camera w/raw but no zoe, or camera w/zoe but no raw)...
Could anybody please point me in the direction of where to find the camera with BOTH options? Whether it be a mod, apk, or even a Rom with this???
Again, it would be much appreciated, Ive searched high n low....

I've been able to have a version that includes Raw, but not Zoe mode, or Has Zoe mode, but no Raw.. I'd like 1 that has the option to select between ALL the different modes ...

Ohh well jist download it from playstore if not let me check kf i can get the apk

I've noticed something though . In system/customize/acc/default xml, if under the camera options, u change feature version from 8718 to 13414, it gets rid of Raw camera and gives u zoe camera available in the camera app.. There's gotta be a way to tweak this to get BOTH available

OK that got me thinking... I've been trying to get the crop-me-in feature back on m8. So I changed that number to 5202 (desire eye) and got it in my camera but lost Zoe... There gotta be a way to get all though...
Edit for science: I changed it to 8718 on my m8 now I can see raw in my camera app but it crashes the camera when processing

Yes there are no libs for raw on m8... Since I'm not that into coding such stuff I couldn't get both working together...

I can't see Zoe mode on m9 whatsoever !!!!! M9 doesn't have Zoe feature ! I know I can download it but it will only work a gimmicky mixer , not like m7 and m8 where it could pull 20 full frame pix with 3 seconds highlight video .... If there's anyway we could activate it on m9 it would be great as I used to use it ALOT

If you're rooted, try changing feature version to 13414 in system/customize/acc/default XML, look for where it says camera, and I believe there's a string that says feature version: I think it's 8718, try changing to 13414 ... That gets rid of RAW, but brings back Zoe camera in the camera on latest camera 7.30 ... To get rid of Zoe and bring back RAW, change back to 8718

i have camera with raw (updated from playstore) and zoe updated from playstore as well, these 2 apss do not come together, you have to install/update separately one by one...personally i dont like zoe but if you do want both i dont see the problem at all, but you will never get camra and zoe app together ok? =D

I don't think u quite understand what I'm talking about- NOT the Zoe app, but the ZOE CAMERA ENABLED IN CAMERA AS I NOW HAVE IT, see screenshot attached. So yes , u CAN get them together, OK?

As u can see, it IS QUITE possible. The only tricky part not done yet is getting both Zoe camera and Raw mode both enabled at the same time to switch between in the camera app. You can have RAW with ZOE camera disabled, or ZOE with RAW disabled. What I'm trying to accomplish is modding the apk to have ALL modes enabled and selectable at the same time

Is this your 1st HTC phone? As most veteran HTC modders / users know that ever since HTC 1st released the concept of ZOE, htcs camera app always included a ZOE CAMERA MODE built into the camera app, NOT the Zoe APP. it wasn't until just recently that they started removing it from the camera for specific models....

i think there is no possibility for ZOE plus RAW together in camera app... RAW only works for "normal" photos where ZOE is also meant for Videos...therefore you can't use both together...and even if i think the app would force close

All he meant is we want to use Zoe but if he modddd the xml file Raw will be disabled, he doesn't mean to use Zoe and capture it as raw format ,, ALL WE NEED IS ZOE ENABLED PLUS RAW SHOOTING MODE ENABLED not Raw Zoe capture
Clear ?????

Exactly this.... I'm not trying to capture a Zoe in Raw format or anything like that, all I want is in the camera app, to have the ability to choose between all the different modes without having to MOD the default XML, (Raw, Zoe, Bokeh, Photobooth, split capture, Selfie, Camera,) ... To be able to pick between all the different modes without reboot.

CAMERA FIX!! no focus or flash issue what so ever; With this camera apk

HI everybody,
K this camera apk was pulled from the MIUI rom port while doing extensive testing of the rom it's self just to see how the rom did. While doing this I noted with the camera all issues we have on the cm and nexus based roms are non existent on the MIUI camera, but the camera does have issues.
1. It has two issues one when it takes a photo's with the rear facing camera it saves it upside down for some reason
2. second issue i found is when you go to the front facing camera it glitches in the transition and you half to close it out and restart and then it'll be on the front facing camera and you half to do the same to get back to the rear facing camera NOTE: the front facing camera does not flip the image
Now initially I thought this might of been the miui rom its self so I grabbed the camera apk and jumped to the Nexus rom and IT WORKS. I currently use this camera as my daily driver despite its issues and even though I have purchased the Snap Camera, I just prefer the MIUI camera...
I would note I ran a search on the camera apk files name and found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/find-7/development/mod-oppocamera-settings-timer-scene-t3003030 I tried the zips they have and they don't seem to work on our phone.
Also I did not know who to credit for this. I'm sorry for that; if some one know's who pm me or comment. Thanks

personally i find 'BlueCam' delivers better photos than the MIUI, the only features that don't work is manual focus but the auto focus does a fine job and it has torch mode to take care of night photos which gets over the flash problem, its also free on the app store.

true that, I'm thinking it should be very possible for an app to utilize an existing camera app to take the picture and then parse it, if background elements are an issue a crop tool can be built it. I'll look into it after this coming week and see if i can come up with something. Won't be perfect but it'll be better than nothing

Regarding barcode scanning... it is not as seemless as barcode scanner or google goggles, but I had good success with QR droid which can use an existing picture to read a barcode.

That's what I'm getting at, if its possible to read from an image then it should be possible to have your camera take a snap shot, save it has an ordinary image and then have an app interpret it. At least in theory, I don't know how feasable it is yet

I use this camera app from f-droid app store its free and open source and also works well with flash
https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=camera&fdid=com.simplemobiletools.camera
Tried it with latest lineage os by ggow. Focus is fast and pictures are coming up great. There is no manual controls but this app is better than stock or Google camera app in my opinion anyway. Camera button also works to activate this app and to take snaps with. Developer also has gallery app in f-droid if you want to give it a spin.

The camera from F-droid is very limited and it does not work with flash. It works in a sense that flash can be permanently turned on and used as a light. The oppo camera however seems to work correctly. The only problem I encountered is switching between front and rear camera. Seems like usable camera to use when you need flash support. Otherwise open camera app is good and full featured app.

I find oppo camera good but pictures for not known reason turn out upside down - I really don't fancy switching them back manually.
Another good app is camera HDR. As mentioned in CyanogenMod description it just work well.

thanks. really nice. flash light photos works fine.

Better Camera

So what makes a camera stutter? After trying out the ported OnePlus camera and noticing how smooth it looked, I now hate the stock camera. However, the camera doesn't work correctly with nougat (it takes pictures and when I look at them in the gallery, they're rotated 90° counter clockwise). So what's a camera app that works almost perfectly and also provides fluidity with that such as in the OnePlus camera?

There is a workaround for the OnePlus camera if it takes photos rotated, Simply select HDR from the 3dot menu in bottom right and then deselect, your photos will be fine. Even if you do not deselect HDR it will be fine but I recommend deselecting it because HDR doesn't show much difference to me and there is processing after the pic so it takes more time. If you want to try other camera apps, I made a thread on it some time ago https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/themes/root-stock-camera-apps-ported-devices-t3573485. The app you should try is Google camera but the one in the thread is for marshmallow and as you said you have nougat, there is a never version for nougat. Look for it in apk mirror or request me if you cant, I'll look for you.

I have the Google camera, but on my device it's a bit Jarry and sluggish.... I tried the HDR fix, and it didn't work. It may be due to your port being for marshmallow, and I'm on nougat with different hardware..... Thank you for your response though!
