Snapchat on MM 20A/20B ROMS - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, on MM snapchat seems to not have the color noize enabled at all. I kinda like to have not all that over sharpness found in LP rom, I prefer keep the noize but at least I want just that color noize filter on, especially on the front camera will it be useful.
Exist a way to mess up with the drivers?? :good:

[Q] Better video camera app?

I'm running CM9, and it's been great mostly. Last night I was trying to take some video in a reasonably lit room. Not too bright, not too dark, just a room you'd be sitting in. Well, the preview in the camera app looked good, subject was easily visible, colors looked ok. As soon as I hit record though, it seems to close the iris down or change the exposure to "normal" viewing, which caused the image to become much darker. I'd like to be able to have the camera record with an exposure set at the levels the preview uses. Can someone recommend a video camera app with better controls for that sort of thing? Or tell me how to change the exposure on the video camera mode of the built in app? I didn't see a way to do so.
Thanks!

Rear camera too dark

Anyone else find the rear camera almost pitch black compared to front camera? I've changed various settings but it doesn't go any brighter.

Most units have the dark camera. Some have a brighter camera.
The best you can do is adjust the exposure setting.
I just posted in another thread that I had this issue, even adjusting all the setting makes very little difference when using the camera in video mode, picture mode is fine though, no issues with darkness etc.

Sorry I didn't see your thread, yes I have exactly same problem in video mode being darker than camera mode with the rear camera no issue with front one though, my bad I should of stated which mode it was in.
Don't know about the dark only in video mode issue.
What I've seen is most cameras look find in bright rooms, but in dimly lit rooms, everything is very dark. I just figured this was normal for this level camera, but then I saw a unit that was able to have the same image my eye could see, rather than being so dark it was hard to make out details.
That's when I came to the concusion there are different cameras or the same camera with different variances.
I could adjust the exposure in the dark camera to the highest level and get about 75% of the brightness of the bright camera, but never as bright. By bright, I just mean you can make out the details in the scene.
It seems to be more of bug though because it's also doing it on sphere & panoramic modes too, it's like it's automatically setting the exposure to -2 when your under unnatural light. The setting shouldn't be any different to camera still mode as all it does is stitch multiple stills together.

I went back and tested my camera in more depth.
When I turn on video mode, it ignores any exposure setting. Is it possible you have exposure turned up (not necessarily by your own doing) in the camera mode and when you switch to video, it doesn't honor the exposure?
Basically what I'm asking is, rather than video mode being dark, is it possible video mode is "normal", ie no adjustments to exposure, and camera mode has exposure upped up, possibly some change/fix that was made to account for an overly dark camera?
I know this makes no "effective" difference to you, but might explain why it behaves differently in camera and video/stitch/etc. mode.
Sometimes it also goes redish dark in picture / still mode too but that can be fixed by pressing home and then returning to it via recents, you can hear the shutter or lens reset.
4.4 gives a slight improvement, it's lighter now hopefully with another tweaked update it'll be fixed.

Can I get these features on stock ROM?

So I got a OP3 recently and coming from OPO CM13 had some features that didn't work like I wanted or didn't have options in the stock ROM so I installed sultanxda's wonderful OP3 ROM. What I did not realize was that the camera software is a lot worse than what the stock ROM offers, so I was thinking of going back to that if I can get the following things working in some other way:
Notification light color per app. I used Light Flow for this back in the day, is it still a good choice or is there something better?
Disable the stupid charging lights. I'd rather not have the room light up at night just because my phone is charging.
Change DPI to 440 so I can fit more stuff on screen.
Rearrange on-screen buttons. I like the back button in the center. Not a big priority, just nice to have.
Adjust vibration intensity.

I can hopefully solve some for you:
* Charging light can be disabled if you turn off the led, and use some third party app for the notifications.
* You can swipe back and recents but can replace home button with back button unless u use xposed
* Vibration intensity can be increased by using a custom kernel tuning app like Boeffla app // EX Kernel manager app etc
install xposed framework with gravity box and vibration tuner module

You can flash the Ressurection variant made by Eliminater (BJRR) together with Oxygen Cam....

Turn down brightness in camera app and dark theme

I just bought my Zenfone 5z a few days ago and I'm satisfied with its performance. The software can use more clean-up but this version of ZenUI is a lot better than the previous ones. But one thing tho, the system UI is primarily white, especially the nav bar. It looks really ugly especially that I always have my apps on night mode whenever possible. And of course, seeing the pull-down menu in dark mode will always be a delight. It used to be possible with themes but this new ZenUI only changes the icons and wallpapers and leaves out the quick settings.
Second is that the camera app is always on full brightness. I can always use the modded GCam but the native camera app always yields bettee photo quality based on my test, the only thing that annoys me is that it's so bright when I use it. Is it possible to have a modded version of the native cam app where we can turn off down the brightness?
Thank you for taking your time in reading this. More suggestions and comments is welcome since there aren't a lot of discussions about this phone yet.

Black lines in high contrast pics with HDR on in stock camera?

Hi, this question is actually about an AT&T V35, but since that phone doesn't have its own sub and it shares a camera module with the G7, I figured I'd ask here. I love most things about the camera and UI, but when I take pics of high contrast environments, I get really nasty colors and black lines on every other pixel. This does not happen at all without HDR on. Any solutions or ideas? Stock LG cam, version 7.0.132.25. Here's a pic as an example, one is zoomed out, the other is full crop. I know going to GCam solves this, but I prefer the zoom UI on the stock LG camera.
Edit: It is not PWM in light power supply, as this happens with fluorescent and incandescent light sources and the lines are very sharp. The lines also occur top to bottom of the phone, meaning they are horizontal in landscape orientation.
Sorry if a V35 post isn't allowed here, please remove if so.
