Where is the raw option?, what version of Xcam you got?

XCam because of the ability to spot meter, raw output, ability to bypass post-processing, ability to customize shutter speeds, and 100% JPEG quality.

Xcam all the way now with marshmallow support

[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

Install Xcam LG. You can film in HD 30/60/120 fps and FULL HD 30/60fps.

Camera2 api support?

Can anyone here having a g4 confirm if it has camera2 api support? I know its manual mode does support everything camera2 is supposed to do, including manual shutter speed and white balance, but does it support those natively via camera2 api, or lg's own implementation? Can anyone test using either https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera2_compatibility_test or snap camera and try enabling camera2 api in its "other" menu and take a raw photo? Thanks in advance!!!
Yes It supports!
Only problem I've encountered with some 3rd party apps are longer shutter speeds like 15, 30 seconds. They won't let me choose them. Other than that. Works like a charm!
manual camera gives FC without any popup for me (i open, see short time interface, then it close itself and im back in appdrawer..)

Thanks, can you tell me which apps you tested that are compatible? What is the longest shutter speed usable on each of them? Thanks again!

I've tested both. Work great, but maximum shutter speed was slower.
Also tested Cinema FV-5 for videos. Still glitchy (probably will be solved with the next update). That will be awesome because it can record 4K longer than stock camera (no 5 minute limit). It also supports manual focus during video recording.
Yeah we could probably disable the 5 minute warning(or you can shoot video after video). I hope I'm gonna buy a g4 today so I can start putting apps into the app section (or android development, not sure)

Go and buy it already! Now we have Root. But you better try to get the EUR H815 with unlocked bootloader.

Is there a way to enable 60fps 1080p?

So i used xCam on my G2 and G3 and always enabled 1080p at 60fps which was my desired recording setting but there are no options and xCam doesnt work on the G4. Is there a way to enable this?
Rooted of course.
I think this is what you want: [ROOT] 60fps camera + 100% photo quality + flash mod
I think this is the Verizon G4 forum.

Can somebody do some mod for LG G PRO for camera ?

Hello, LG G PRO still great phone with powerful specs, but camera isn't so good, can someone do mod which will enable 1080P 60FPS recordering ? Samsung galaxy s4 has same Snapdragon 600 and it has 1080p60fps recordering, would be nice if someone could make it
Yes you can upgrade your gpro camera
G-pro has great camera features, it takes incredible pictures like LG G2. Even my g-pro takes pictures in .RAW format.
In "RAW" camera app can not process image any more and save as it is. Very simple solution for upgrade your g-pro cam is "XCAM LG SETTINGS" and "XCAM LG" app. i am used "xcamlg_600_g2advanced" app with xcam lg settings. XCAMLG is best due to its great features like taking RAW and control on shutter speed and bit-rate of video up to 60mb per second.
Due to same camera hardware XCAM LG supports G-pro camera, But the secret reveal's now.

Well Im on LP Stock Rom on my E986 (Lollipop SUPER UX V8.5i Port G4) but when I try to donate the XCAM LG SETTINGS App at Playstore it shows that the app is not compatible with my device
That's only because the app is only developed for LG G2. You can still install it.
Anyway, has anyone beeen able to get this working like the second post did?

I use 60fps and ultra hd 4k video mode in 4.4 kitkat, but now i just shot in RAW because its not possible to use these features in lollipop
if u use kitkat and you have TWRP installed you may try ultra hd 4k and 60fps with the installation of some extra binaries, but this method is very risky and some times brick the device.
how to install these binaries: follow the link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548974
