[Q] G Tablet Camera compression too high / media_profiles.xml help

Hello,
My G Tablet running CM7 Nightly #79 (had the same issue even in stable) is having an issue with the camera. The images I take are super highly compressed (in every one of the picture quality option). The preview is fine, however when you go to open the picture it is very bad quality and the file size is tiny. Also, in the camera app, if I go to take a video, the preview is fine until you click record and then the preview window freezes while the clock appears and ticks up, and then you click to stop and it does, but I seem to get a force close (even when I go to select different qualities I get a force close). But yes, when I ran the stock ROM I had no issues, and even when I ran TnT Lite I had no problems. So I was wondering if someone that had a working camera could maybe post their media_profiles.xml from their /system/etc/ folder? maybe that would be a solution. I know others have had this issue, but I have not seem to have found a solution out there.
Thanks a lot! Really appreciate all the work and effort out there in the android community.

This is a known issue in CyanogenMod and the devs are working on it.
For now, you can use the Camera Fun Free app from Market. I haven't tried it, but others on the board here have reported that it works for taking pictures.
Could this be a fix?

CM7 & MIUI Camera apps installed simultaneously?

EDIT: You know what, i appologize for this, at first glance i saw "camera" on miui's rom, but then saw MIUI Camera... Sorry to waste this space, i'll update if all works well.
I want to install the MIUI camera app onto my NS4G running CM7 Rev4 because of the touch-to-focus feature, but since the MIUI camera doesn't support the front-facing camera, i want to have them both installed in case I would like to use the ff camera.
I understand the camera.apk for both cameras are listed in the app drawer under "camera" so I was hoping someone would be able to change the name of one of them slightly so they could both be installed together.
Am i blowing hot air here? cuz i feel like it shouldn't be too difficult to do (not for me, but for someone who has experience with apk decompiling/compiling).
I also understand the 2 different camera apps have different frameworks (ie: with the wrong framework, the settings feature in MIUI camera won't work). So additionally, can the framework apk for the 2nd camera app be adjusted as well, so both camera apps will work completely?
turns out just pushing the MiuiCamera.apk over to a CM7 ROM doesn't work. Not sure what else has to be done, if someone could take a crack at it would be great
is there a way to pushing the apk to CM7 #21 ?
i just put the apk in the system\app folder named miuicamera.apk
and it disabled my stock camera aswell

[SOLVED] Camera app is missing

OK, so I'm building a AOSP rom from source for the Xoom. When I compile the rom it will make gallery2.apk just fine. But the camera app does not show up in the app drawer although gallery will.
I have copied gallery2.apk to my galaxy nexus and both camera and gallery works fine.
I have googled and come up short of solutions for this issue other than "camera & gallery merged". I know this already, it just seems like something is missing allowing the xoom to start the camera hardware.
Also, camera works fine on other builds like CM or EOS....just not my build...grrrrr
Does anyone have any ideas to throw my way to get this resolved? Any help is appreciated.
Oh...when trying a 3rd party camera app I get "Error: Cannot start camera"
EDIT - WAS MISSING CAMERA DRIVER
Hey man, do you have it? I need too lol

Can't acheive FULLY functional Photosphere camera on 4.3 ROMS

Hello,
I apologize if this topic has been covered in another thread. I looked and couldn't find the information that I wanted.
I am Stuck on TW roms because I can't get any of the Photosphere enabled cameras to be fully functional on any 4.3 AOSP roms.
I think I have tried them all. No matter the camera app/rom/kernel combination that I try, the camera always force closes or reboots my device when I use any of the front facing Camera/Video cam features. This is truely preventing me from using a 4.3 rom as a DD.
This may be a Noob question, even though I have been flashing roms since my Eris...but, why are there no ROM's that have a Photoshpere camera included? Why can I only get that camera as an .apk or flashable .zip? Confuses me.
For now, I am stuck on TW because I can have the Samsung Camera (which i love), and I can have a fully functional Photosphere camera and run them side by side.
If I could use the camera that comes with the 4.3 rom (for front facing camera & vid cam, i.e. hangouts) AND load the Photosphere cam, I would be happy, but one has to replace the other...unlesss there is a workaround I am not aware of.
Thanks!

[Q] Camera upside down in third party camera app

Hi. I am currently using Miui rom for Xperia J. I have a problem which I have seen on any other custom rom such as Touchwiz rom or CM10 rom. I have google the problem but I can't find any solution. I don't know if it a bugs for Cm based or what. When i install third party camera apps such as Camera360 or Cymera, my front camera will be upside down. But the camera that in the system can be used normally. I also have tried to fix the rotation of the camera360 but still facing that problem. Hope someone helps. Thanks in advance.
Edit: After trying a few camera app in google playstore finally i know only a few camera apps will be upside-down for the front camera. And so far i have to change my favorite camera apps because front camera of camera360 also will be upside down. I have seen this problem in other cm based rom too.
Helpp
None of the Xperia J user have this problem? If so, I'm afraid it is my phone problem then.

I think the app has the problem. I never use camera360 though. I use retrica. It works fine.

Thank you for your reply. But I'm afraid that all my third party camera apps are like that. The camera system is the only one that work. Other camera apps will be 180' when using front camera. Actually I'm having this problem when I use custom rom non then the Sony based. When I'm using Alienrom or Doomsday, I never have this problem.
