yeah man thats sucks the first thing i did its to see if i have the lg cam on gb but its not there
Wait, is there no camera at all or is it just that the LG camera app is not there? This may make me think twice about installing the update.

I registered just to ask this question, but do you mean that if I updated with the new Gingerbread update and did a factory reset then the LG Camera would be there?

No there is NO LG Camera app. Even after you do factory reset.
If some one would make a backup of the camera app and then post the apk that would be great

It really frosts my rear when I go to the T-mobile website and I see they are showing the new Mytouch 4g Slide with the "most advanced camera on any smartphone." And here I am with arguably the worst camera available on any smartphone (the AOSP GB camera, not the LG froyo camera).
I'm going to keep my fingers crossed and hope that they have something in the works to provide us with the proper camera some point in the not-too-far future.

I am waiting for the jury on this, is there a way to keep the phone LG photo app.....or put it back....after doing the GB update.
One guy said it comes back after a hard reset after the update....but others say that is a no go.
I want to avoid buying an app for the camera function, which I will need to do if its going to be just the stock Android.
Seems LG could release an update to replace it....no?
Right now the consensus seems to be if you do the GB update you lose the LG camera app, and it does not come back by doing hard resets.
TIA
I actulice and I still see the camera application.
Yes, you lose the LG camera application; that doesn't mean that there is no camera application. It's just not the one that came stock with the phone, and it's not as nice. For example, there's no "switch camera" button -- you can only take photos and videos with the rear-facing camera, not the front-facing camera.
I'm not a very big user of the camera, so I imagine this one will probably be sufficient for my needs until the final update comes out.

I wouldn't count on LG releasing an update for that. They didn't even ever release an update to fix the small email signature bug, so I doubt they'll get around to a whole camera app.
The only good thing that comes out of this is the stock Android camera does 128K audio vs. the 64K audio of the LG camera. Oh, and we can finally keep the geolocation turned on instead of needing to manually turn it on every time. Same maximum qualities otherwise, but almost no control over anything else and the zoom is not controlled with the volume controls.
if you dont like it and if it's possible please phandroid back to what you were using before. we finally get SOMETHING, proof of LIFE on this thing so please...quit your *****ing all will be well. lg does seem to intend to right their wrong.
I will be avoiding threads with titles such as this one like the plague because although I was one to be disgruntled too over this phone I at least can recognize progress when I see it

Oops, my bad; that mountain icon in the lower left is the "switch camera" button. That graphic just didn't communicate to me at all; I assumed it was the control for "focus mode" or some such. Sorry for the noise.
anyone know how to make the gb camera screen lighter? mine is so dark. I do love the update and I have had no problems what so ever. But the dark camera screen.

1.Starting the application into a black screen is a bit - distasteful and not user friendly. Add the buttons that you have when pressing menu here.
2. The Plumb and Level indicators are a bit hard to get right, you should probably think about over laying a set of arrows to tell the user how they need to move to get level and plumb.
3. Typical camera uses the trackball to snap the picture instead of menu or a screen tap (at least on our heros) This would make it more fluid.
4. Not sure how you are storing/retrieving GEO information, but its wrong...at least for me it is
5. Just in my office - it seemed like one picture would have a different light saturation than another frame in the picture.
6. Your stitching of the pictures seems like it has a VERY low error tolerance, and you might try looking at other ways of matching and stitching pieces together so they are seamless.
7. After you have one panorama, instead of showing it at the beginning, have a gallery button, this way they can come into a screen of buttons and actually navigate with out having to use hard keys.
The above was meant to be constructive - please don't take offense, I think you have a good starting point with the app. If you need help with any of it let me know, I have a pretty decent Java/Android background, just no time to make my own apps.

I didn't understand the difference between the two different options for creating a panoramic pic (I don't remember what they were called, manage and auto I think)
I also didn't understand the point of levels
Also it would be nice when the stitching occurs if the app looked for overlap and then removed the overlapping parts of the pic.
Another suggestion would be that when you take a pic that is part of the panoramic shot that you leave it on screen and then overlay the camera view over it so you can better line up and tell where the next shot should be.

Hi all,
When taking a picture close up (like 2 inches away) the camera loses focus and takes crap pictures.
EG: I move the camera close to the object and press the screen, the camera begins to focus and then focuses past the perfect setting and stays on blurry?
Does anyone know why this does this? The camera is obviously capable of taking pics this close up as it focuses perfectly but then continues to focus and ends up losing it.
Sorry if this sounds vague it's hard to explain it.
If you know what i mean and your aware of a fix for this then i would appreciate the pointers.
Also if there is no fix for this and you are aware of a manually focusing camera app then that would be great too.
Cheers.

Bad news for me - the camera in the new firmware has become much worse. Greatly increased color noise, noise reduction has become very aggressive. The result is blurred and "dirty". And the camera has become a kind of "click" while focusing.
Good news: Snap Camera appeared ISO setting from 100 to 2400 and HJR. Focus has become a little faster.

Just click on my photo and look at the details.
I'll be glad if anyone try to make test photo with Snap Camera or similar software (with better quality than stock Moto camera) before and after update to Kitkat. May be it was just a my mistake - may be i didn't do factory reset after update. But now I'm on 4.1.2 Nexesque again and happy with old camera quality)
I see this on my Wife's M, 442 also.
Get the latest Lenovo Cam in my Moto x page. See My signature.
I use the Google Camera app from the play store. It seems to have pretty decent quality. I also disabled the stock camera app so on the lock screen or when opening up the camera through a shortcut it opens up Google Camera versus the stock one. I'd try that if you haven't yet.

The only thing I don't like about the Google Camera is it won't let me state where to save my pictures. I do not like storing them on the internal memory. At least with the Moto camera, I can store them on the external SD card.
Lenovo is good but no way to save to extSD or OTG as it does on my X. Internal only.
On KitKat my rear facing camera in SnapChat stretches the pictures vertically. What's odd is that it worked fine for the first few pictures. Anyone else have that problem?
Tried to put all *camera* files from /system/lib of old 4.1.2 ROM to new Kitkat. First was /system/lib/hw/camera-msm8960.so and after rewrite and reboot with clearing dalvic i got a fail on start Camera app. Ok, i rewrote all remaining files like /system/lib/*camera* , clear dalvic and made reboot. Now i've got a bootloop)
So, is anybody know how to install all old 4,1,2 camera driver to kitkat?
Is anybody got same problem?
i think it's because your phone cant focus !
try other app with fix focus options
What do you mean - cant focus? I hold the phone, tap "shot" and after green square appears, phone makes the focused photo. On my examples you can see very noisy photos on KitKat, at first.
Any news in, guys?)

Hey All,
Just got a N5 and I'm a bit disappointed with the camera. Seems like this issue isn't new, but the camera has a really tough time autofocusing and even tap to focus.
I saw that there was a fix for older versions, but is there any update in 4.4.4?
Just as a curious note: most of the custom roms have this problem or not?
Thank you,
-Siroes
If you are disappointed with Nexus 5's camera performance, you should consider selling it away and get a phone with a better camera..
Agreed. If after 4.4.2 you think the camera is disappointing you must be a professional photographer. I'd highly recommend a Nokia WP as a phone camera or a quality camera.
Using Google Camera on 4.4.4 has a pretty decent shutter speed and also using different dalvik patches can increase the speed.
The camera works amazing when it does focus, but it takes quite a while sometimes. I never used 4.4.2, so I can't speak of that experience...
Just wanted to see if anyone else had similar issues.

install google camera from playstore. better focus
Is this with or without HDR+? Without HDR on, I find 4.4.4 with the Google Camera will focus pretty quickly. With HDR on, it's obviously going to take a fair bit longer to take a snap.
Either you're doing it wrong or you're a professional photographer.
If you're the latter then I don't know what you're trying to do with a phone camera lol.
Camera works fine for me, better than the Note 3.

honestly, i have that and it makes very little difference. The camera quality is only good when using HDR mode which in some roms doesnt even work properly. If you are a photo takin/lovin person, this camera will be a disappointment.
A minute to focus? 60 full seconds?? I'm doubting that.
Anyway....camera phones are very cheap cameras....no phone will compare to even my 99 dollar Kodak camera.
I see comparisons with guys comparing this phone to that phone and they are all inferior to the cheapest of dedicated cameras.
If people are that concerned with getting consistently decent pics....carry a camera with you. They can be quite small and light, and will put all phone cameras to shame.
Just my 2 cents. ?
---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------
And.....if you rely on your phone camera to take your pics at a special event that you want good pics to capture the memories..... Its just silly to show up with nothing but your phone.
If it truly takes 60 seconds to focus I think you might have a problem with your hardware. Otherwise you should check out this thread if you haven't already http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...tos-post-pictures-videos-share-4-4-1-t2477920
Shouldn't take more than a couple seconds to focus unless you're moving the phone a lot. Perhaps your hand is too shakey? OIS helps but won't fix shakey hand completely.
At the worst it should take about 2-3 seconds to focus. Manage to get consistently clear pictures. If you update past 4.4.2 and still experience an issue, you've got a problem.

Sorry, I misunderstood. Are you talking about squeezing to take pictures, or pressing the on-screen button to take pictures? The squeeze has a delay, someone said it's because they want to avoid the motion caused by the squeeze before taking the picture. For the on-screen button, I don't see much of a lag.

The update supposedly fixing the problem is 1.16, as reported here and in the following posts, not 1.13. It's not available in many regions yet.
Is HDR on? That will cause lag. Google it for an explanation.

I'm on 1.16 with my HK U11 and after that patch the camera is now much faster but I've no idea why they push the OTA lately to the America regional.
EDIT: https://forum.xda-developers.com/u11/how-to/htc-u11-updates-thread-t3618362/page13
#121 and #122 said US got 1.16 update now including Verizon carrier.
1.16 on my stock U11 has totally killed the lag.
I'll likely update my rooted one once the firmware is available from the US update. The camera app is the same build FWIW

I'm also experiencing lag in the viewfinder. It's not all of the time, but occasionally when I fire up the camera the viewfinder stutters so much I can't see what I'm taking a picture of. The photos take, but it is incredibly frustrating. I'm on Verizon and this didn't seem to get fixed with the last update (.16).
