CM7 camera is super snappy

i'm hoping the LG update comes soon to see if it fixes some of the various issues before going into custom roms.
any other camera apps to recommend?

Does Faux123's ROM use the same CM7 camera?
Yeah it does, that camera has always been terrible for me, I couldn't even zoom in on screen without using volume buttons, everything is cramped, u press zoom u get the thing below it.

Ok so in my opinion, the stock camera.apk is a whole lot better than the one that is on gingerbread, and that is what is keeping me from switching. I use the camera on this thing a lot!i have read where some have tried to replace the new with the old to no avail... Can someone please make this happen, or even suggest a better alternative... In the mean time I will try to do the same
It will work we just need the LG framework again

Try this and report.

Dam. I really liked the lg cam too
G2x with faux AOSP
I really miss the ability to focus onto any spot on the screen, rather than limited to focusing on the middle of the frame or whatever it does automatically. I have not seen this feature on any of the camera apps in the market.
Vignette does that. It was too laggy for me, however, and I have since moved on to camera360.

This is also what is holding me back from quite a few ROM's and simply getting gingerbread also. I use it so much that it breaks the deal for me.
Any update on this?

Does anyone have the stock camera apk? I prefer using cm7 but I love the stock camera. The ones that come with non-sense roms are for the most part, unimpressive. I like the full screen hi Res images from stock. Thanks!
It won't work sorry bro

What about miui cam? Anyone know how that is? I think its in someone's cm7 hybrid build.
Why wont it work? I got the sense 3.5 insertcoin camera apk on my computer and using miui and would like to use the sense cam...
It won't work, like all other widgets and htc software won't work over CM7. That software requires the HTC Sense Framework and will not work without it on your phone. You will get only a sequence of ForceClose from running the apk.
You're are free to try anyway, just take the camera.apk from any sense rom
Bummer, well. "The Beast " rom seems to be the best of both worlds... Senseless rom with sense apps, like the nice camera!
I've been experimenting with camera apps. Judging by the fact that you like the sense camera like me, try camera zoom FX, closest i've come to sense cam. But no touch to focus. Comes with some other nice features. Closest i've come to instant capture.
Edit- beast rom is melvins?
Ifyou just wait the camera issues with cm7 will be resolved. Only a few things don't work.

It's the UI I hate. The borders and stuffs. I like a plain UI but with classy looking menu and options and such. The sense cam and xperia arc cam apps are 2 examples. If anyone has any replacement or similar app please please let me know. Would appreciate it very much

My concerns are not about something that doesn't work. Simply the camera app of the CM7 is way way behind in comparison with the sense one in all their aspects. UI, functionality, effects, settings... If you buyed your sensation also for it 8mpx camera you can't be satisfied with that app or, at least, i'm not. It's the main reason that keeps me from flashing these roms. Actually, Friend Stream is another big one
Hey guys just relaying that there is a Camera app on the market called Camera ICS. I think it's better than the stock so far will test later. Check it out.

Looks like it saves to the internal memory...
Sent from my LG-P999
When stock is done it will be better.
That's what I'm hoping either through CM9 or through LG...
Better than stock gingerbread and LG port but hate that it saves to internal.

You should be able to change in settings? Most camera apps do, hold on, I'll check it out.

That's weird, should have an option for it.
Pretty nice looking UI, Picture quality seems lacking even though I have it at 8 MP and JPEG quality at ultra
Sent from Narnia
Yea settings at full but haven't compared to our regular cameras yet. The saving to external should be an option... next update?
Panorama on 2.3.7 I like alot lol...

Works flawlessly on my Nexus S. Installed through Play..
Updated to allow our G2x phones to use external sd card rather than internal sd. Thanks goes to the developers.
How can I stop the camera lagging up on miui v2.4.6 any help would be great
Sent from my Desire S using XDA
Some saga versions have this lag on cyan kernel(it's not present in sense roms),which miui is using aswell.
There is and probably never will be a fix for that it's something you will have to live with if you want to use gingerbread.
It's much better when using Ucam for example,but that doesn't fix the lag on flash/youtube vids.
The only way to avoid/fix it completely is switching to ics.
I have done that and have no problems whatsoever in that regard.
Btw Ucam is also a great alternative on cyan9.

Looking for a modded camera that will take pics with the power button.

Bump for same question but for either volume button
CM9 Skyrocket
Stock cm9 does this...
OK but I don't want to run cm9. I always ran a modded camera on my cappy and my infuse. I was just hoping someone had one. I keep turning my screen off when ever I want to take a picture.

'Ucam' can take pictures with volume buttons. And it take pictures faster and with better quality. give it a try.
Camera ICS will take pics with the buttons - configurable in the app settings.
Is it really that weird that I don't want an extra app? I just want the stock app to work with the power button. Also working completely after 15% would be nice too, the flash not working is better then not at all, but still... anyone?
sent from device using an app
Actually, this would be nice. I use Ucam, and it works fine, but I would really rather use the stock (modded) ICS camera with the ability to take Shots via the power button. Ucam uses the volume buttons, which works, but you have to have the phone turned upside down (from how most apps work) so the volume buttons are on top. Its not a big deal, but it is akward. I have not tried Camera ICS, but some of the reviews are iffy at best and again it is an extra app. I know in the past (maybe just for GB roms) such a mod existed but one that works on ICS roms (via CWM or Rootexplorer) would be nice.
Camera ICS+ looks and acts exactly like the cm9 camera, so its worth trying
