Tru AOSP camera on Sense Roms!!

This is the true aosp camera that will work on evo sense roms alongside your htc camera

Any more info? or screenshots etc?
install this like an app?
thanks

Thanks snandlal!
Installed it like a regular app.
Works pretty well in both camera and video modes.
Wish it had more options though.

Thanks a lot.

This is a step in the right direction. Would be nice if someone could take this and add all the changes that cyan had added to the AOSP camera in his rom.

Very cool. The camcorder works on the MIUI rom.

3MP? That's all it is?

Sorry I don't have a screenshot, but if you have used CM6, in the early stages before Cyanogen added all the new features to the camera, it is the same camera. Shows up as 3mp, one user said that even though it says 3mp, it is actually 8mp. I can't confirm this, as I no longer have this camera app on my phone. Can anyone else confirm the MP on this camera? Easy way to do this, is to upload a pic to your computer and open it in any photo app. You can also find the pic on your phone and long press the pic and select "Details". What is the resolution of pics taken with this app?

No, the resolution of pictures this cam takes ARE 3mp. I confirmed the resolution after snapping a photo.

That's what I thought. I remembered the original camera from CM6 was only 3 and this looks like the exact same setup. I deleted when I saw the lack of options. I wish someone could mix in the changes that Cyanogen did to the cam app in CM6. That has a LOT of options.... lol

Why are the pictures so poor??

I am coming from a Vibrant and although by the time I bought this phone the Vibrant was laggy, GPS was hit and miss, and allot of apps would force close, it still had a very good camera. I don't understand why this camera at 5mp takes such poor pics. I have a very good camera but sometimes I do forget it, it's too heavy, or I don't charge it so having a nice camera on the phone would be beneficial. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

You really think the camera is bad? Seems better than the hd2 I had. Have you blown them up on a computer and looked at them or are you just going off the phone? Maybe im just easy to please its really fast and works pretty well
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

No I haven't blown them up I just zoom in from the phone itself. I take the same pic with my husbands iPhone4 zoom in and it is still crisp and clear, with my phone it is very pixelated.

I saw another post around here discussing this, and in it someone said to change... from widescreen to 4:3? I believe..? I don't have the phone yet so can't look in the phone for ya. It's here in the forum tho.

I think the pictures are pretty good. Here are a few I took a couple of days ago:

Speaking of "pop"... Those reds look really nice and deep. Nice choice of images.

Strange. I started the other thread because mine were NOT so good. There are limited settings in the default camera, and I have set mine to the highest resolution and do not see any other adjustments in the setting menu.
At the wide mode, my files were only .6 - 1.2 mb (compressed I am sure). Yours are 3 mb - and much better quality - are you using the OEM camera?
I get MUCH better shots using the 360 Camera app - but not when using the stock camera app. If you are using the stock camera app - is there a setting I have missed?

I vaguely remember a post that said the camera is not set to 5MP by default. You have to set it to 5MP within the settings.

I set it to 5MP first thing - so-so pictures followed.

I use Camera 360. The uncompressed images look far better than when using the stock camera app.
It's unfortunate that the stock camera app doesn't allow manual compression settings. But that's why we have developers.

stock camera compresses the s out of the shots.
Go vigenette or camera 360 (all these were taken using either of the 2)

[Request] Htc Camera on CM7

I really dislike sense but the camera software is much better looking than the asop camera. I know someone did it on cm5. And enthomer was able to make it work on froyo. So would anyone be interested in giving it a shot for gingerbread?

Try MIUICamera .......its a closer Sense Camera alternative...

Just pull the apk from an miui rom and install?

I would love a way to port the HTC camera to cm7 and, more to my preference, MIUI. Not sure how feasibile it is because I thought the application is tied into the framework of sense.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App

the miui camera is a good alternative, just install this zip or push the apk inside the zip to system/app

That miui camera is a good alternative. Thanks for the tip.

Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

what is FFC option? Been looking for the HTC sense camera myself over the CM7 cam. Pongsters GBX camera is decent though. Ah nvm, I guess the GBX camera is this MIUI camera. Only feature its missing for me is the ability to preview the picture after taking it until you tap, and allowing you to delete it right away.

Dear guys ...
sorry to pick up this thread again ... but, is there still no way to get the htc camera working on CM7?

No dear, till not no any such thing available for now....

Any Idea´s why it´s not working? ... what did HTC do with the APK, is the camera using diffrent drivers or so`?

One thing missing in the MIUI camera is the panoramic feature. I wish they add that option soon.

[Q] G2x - Weapon Camera

After I flashed weapon onto my phone. There have been 2 problems with my front facing camera, one that it comes out rotated 90 degrees for photo capture and when I try to use it for video it comes out completely messed up with 4 different screens, 1 with a green area, a blurred image of the camera and 2 other messed up views of the camera. Is there any fix for this? Thanks.

That happened to me while trying Skype. As for the bad screen I changed the Res, for the upside down I just rotated my phone. The finally I. Just said screw the stock cam and installed LG cam 3.0 which all works great except no Skype video

That's a known issue with LG Cam App... Try installing the stock Gingerbread Camera.

It looks different, has a couple features stock does not, and most importantly can record video in 1080p, something no other camera app on the G2X is capable of.
Here's a thread discussing the LG camera and what it can do if you're really curious. I personally don't find it necessary; the MIUI camera can do almost everything LG can do and Camera Advance can do everything (and more!) other than 1080p video, which I don't need.

Where can I find the .apk? I didn't see it on Market.

Nervermind,sorry. I found it. Also, it is a good app so far. I like knowing at what MP my pictures are as well as what size the video is recording at. Much btter than the standard GB cam app.

Only bad thing so far is that it doesnt work with Skype. I keep the stock cam zip file to flash via CWM when i need to make a skype video call.

Replace Sensation camera?

Has anyone ever physically replaced the camera on the Sensation? Mine won't focus at all. It seems like the actual focus is stuck. Before anybody asks, i've searched for 3 straight days and I tried everything. It just wont focus, it seems like it's stuck on one focus position and anything closer than 2 feet is out of focus. It makes the focus noise but no attempt at focusing.

Is sending it in for repairs an option?

Not really, I can get a camera online for it but was hoping I wouldn't have to replace it.

You can either touch the screen to focus on a certain point or if you point it at an object long enough it will focus on it. My doesn't do that on camera or camcorder.

i also get the no focus on anything up close but focus from more than 2 feet or so works great! weird, im guessing that thats just how it is.

My camera has been having trouble focusing lately. I've tried stock ICS, sense 4.0, aosp. None are good.
Kind of been wanting to downgrade to gb to see if it improves.
Glad to see I'm not alone, although it isn't very good news..

right i wish i didnt root this thing the day i got it so i could remember how stock camera was!

I can't automatic focus while recording too, only by clicking on screen. I have stock rom so i think it's just feature.

No, the camera/camcorder should automatically focus.

Been facing the same problem too. Autofocus for macro shot is not as good as my old htc desire and htc sensation.. strangely, if i try macro using object that has text on it i.e newspaper it works.. I thought the problem is the HQ camera mod, but when i reverted to stock camera, the problem persist. I still yet to try the camera on official GB rom. If anyone tried it I would love to hear the result.
