No, I've never heard of one. i know they have actual cameras that do it. but for an app that sounds very difficult to accomplish due to having it recording then "pause" for a picture.
My SGH-M919 is really odd when it comes to recording videos.
Pictures are okay, but video quality is a bit terrible.
When I record a video, it takes a while for it to begin recording...normal, I've seen this happen on other Android devices.
As I'm recording, the video looks okay, no choppiness, yet.
When the recording stops and the playback starts.. the video looks pixelated.
The only time the video looks high quality is when the camera is still.. as soon as the camera moves.. it becomes pixelated.. but, then as the camera is settled.. it forms back into a high quality video.. move it again.. pixelated.
I have the video settings set on 'Standard,' as opposed to 'Low' on Snapchat, but that does not help.
Does anyone know what's going on? Should I enable/disable anything in the developer options? I've noticed this on Snapchats received by other Android users in my contact list, but iOS 4.x.x+ devices are all clear.
Any help/troubleshoot is appreciated!
If y'all need a video, lemme know and I'll try to send one.
Same here, iOS users are always clear, Android is the same as your issue and the same with me.. I would like to have this fixed as well!!

That's what I had thought lol, I hope snapchat improves in quality for Android devices

A while back CM12 had a patch that enabled 4K video recording. I remember that it even worked SOME of the time, but mostly it showed to be recording without saving anything. Currently on CM12 and Blisspop the option is again removed - probably because it was buggy: review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/103494
I've tried many different camera ZIPs from other manufacturers (Motorola cam, Lenovo cam) but they do not appear to enable 4K either.
I tried playing around with the media_profiles configuration file, uncommenting the 4K profile. This does enable 4K video recording - even saving, but the framerate is really bad (<10), both with stock and third party cameras.
So my question: Did anyone ever get smooth 4K video to work on AOSP? If so what was the combination of software used?
yes it did work for idiots who;
1) flased xXcameraXxfix_AROMA_VIPERPRO_v4_FAKXDA_LIKE_SUBSCRIBE_DONATE_YOUTELLMEBUGS.zip
2) set the resolution to 4K
3) shot a video
4) never realized it didn't even save, even if it did, it was lagging between 5 and 15 fps
TL;DR
no, it did not, i have flashed all the 3rd party crap from random monkeys claiming they fixed the camera on aosp promising stock quality
to those who come in here telling me it does, provide proof or gtfo

flash 1. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B023yzk713HzTkhNcFVvU1Z2NHc/view?pli=1
and 2. https://mega.nz/#!lhsg1bwB!ehggjqI-hCbPCHsLr2x2MirRpXRE3XMr8_gHry_NPfs
BUT, is there any non-stock ROM with STOCK camera quality? No 4K, I do not need that, only 1080p (60 fps or 30).
Nope Coki4, unfortunately Tehosiris is right: with the HTC cam and resolution "fix" I can record in 4K, but it is still way too low framerate (15 FPS or worse).
Voterx: To me 4K is most important, hence the thread. If i want proper pictures I take my DSLR anyway... 4K video is something that is really a beautiful thing if you have the screen to display it. There is a huge difference between 1080p and 4K.
To me it is starting to look like the camera driver in AOSP source is just not able to push the pixels?
Snap camera does it. I have also found that snap camera takes as good, or better in some cases, pictures as the stock camera.

you're wrong
With snap camera
What are you doing to get those file properties? Want to check what my jerky files say..
edit:
Properties here also shows 30 fps, but the video is jerky as fuuuuuu* - i guess it is saved "as" 30 FPS but it just drops a bunch. Yes it is 4K but def not 30 FPS, even if the file shows it to be (for me).
but.. if it is smooth for you I want to know your exact rom details so I can try to achieve my holy grail.
can one of the digital cowboys upload these fabled 4k videos shot on aosp?
i still yet to see a nonstock 4k video that doesn't lag like ****
@geekmystique the jerkyness doesn't show in properties, they are just the same as regular videos, you can check the properties in root explorer or any other file explorer.
it does not matter , it is important that you are not right

your 2nd screenshot shows that the 4k video is in 59.9 fps, now THAT i'd like to see.
bending physics with an apk eh? :laugh:
edit: judging from the amount of silence after the bigface comments, i assume it takes an awful lot of time to upload the fabled 60fps 4k video (translation: someone is full of **** and/or clueless)
Let's not make this into a flamewar of sorts.
This is a video I took of my hand waving in front of the camera, whatever the file info says, it is not 30 FPS - by far, it is dropping frames like crazy. The file properties say 30 FPS in MPCHC, but windows properties shows the truth: 18 FPS.

If your video looks better, great - let me know what you did. And if you can spare the time, post it please.
Let's discuss
I do not need 4K, I just need stock quality camera in custom ROMS It's different question.

i suggest you take a look at the camera comparison post here on xda, showing stock / moto / htc / whatever side-by-side
there is no such thing as stock quality on non-LG driver backed software
Anyways, i'm absolutely on geekmystique's side here, i've had multiple people giving me lectures how i need to flash xyz.zip set ABC settings to DEF, align my device towards Mars, count to 7 and stand on my left foot to have AMAZING STOCK QUALITY PHOTOS AND VIDEOS.
Guess what, i've done all those steps, flashed all the zips, pirated all the ****ty apks and gotten nothing but disappointment.
Thats why there is sarcasm towards these 'BUT MY AOSP CAMERA IZ BETTUR BRUH YOU SUK', when it's clearly not. Hell, half of the conversations ended at 'WHO NEEDS 4K' or 'I DONT NEED CAMERA ANYWAYS' which is ridiculus when it's these people giving lectures on how to flash stuff they don't even know what it contains.
dudumm tsss

If so.. Please post the video - my video that I posted also says 30 FPS, but it stutters like mad. If you can get better video I would be really happy to know.
Guess the aosp camera is just as good as stock boys are back in their caves.
I use Cloudy only because of Xcam. I really would like a [email protected] or [email protected] for CM12.1
Guys I've just watched an amazing 960fps slow-mo video compilation which shows that you can actually capture some nice stuff and be creative despite the low quality 720p resolution of the Galaxy S9. I really hope they do 1080p 960fps in the Note 9 and improve the auto capture algorithms and I can see everybody shooting slow motion videos soon.
Here is the link if you are interested: https://youtu.be/gWZ6ePV0SpI
Lol it's pretty lonesome in here, nobody into 960fps videos?
I think the feature is pretty sweet. After tinkering with it and practicing few shots, I've been able to capture a few sweet golf shots or moments with my kids. One thing I came across was that if you don't have enough light to capture in super slow motion you can still use the regular slow motion which can be used in low light conditions.
To make this an available option go into your camera app > Settings > Scroll Down to Edit Camera modes > Rear Camera > Check Slow Motion.
