Flash HTC camera over Stock Gingerbread camera? - T-Mobile LG G2x

So, got this phone, upgraded to gingerbread. Hate the stock camera when you get used to the camera apk on the Sensation...anyway to put that apk on the G2x through a file manager or flashing? Any answer is helpful other than search or why would you do that? answers. I would use search, but when I do I get to windows phones... pointless.
If you want the apk from the sensation, I can rip it and post it or something

Yea I wish they could do that too but apparently they (devs) haven't found a way to port anything from HTC to reg. Android. Its something about the way the apps are written or coded....if they could do that we could've had HTC sense running on this v12 powered phone.
Off topic: I think this phone can handle HTC sense pretty good if it to run it.

hah, sense 2.1. The sensation barely handles sense 3.0
Well damn...I love the click to focus on the sensation (sense 3.0 camera apk?) and especially the focus in video recording!

Anyway to get sense camera on CM7?

This may be a stupid question but I haven't seen it in the thunderbolt forum. So the only thing I hate about CM7 is the camera and I loved the stock one. Wondering if I can just get that onto CM7. Thanks
The sense camera needs sense to function correctly. Have you tried the mui camera? It's popular and better than the cm7 camera imo

ONLY if they can keep the camera software 100% intact.
I don't think it can be done. It relies too much on Sense3 frameworks.

and along the same token, your lack of concern for preserving the awesomeness of the camera is your opinion and, I imagine, not one that is held widely by the MT4GS userbase.
one of the selling points of this phone is the camera... and that goes out the window with the AOSP camera app. before this phone, I wouldn't have cared either, but since it has such a capable setup out of the box for being a point and shoot replacement, it seems like a waste to toss that just to get an AOSP rom.
Before jumping to conclusions about the built in Camera software versus the third party camera apps available on the market, we should test them out first.
I'm absolutely certain that there will be apps out there in the future that will be able to control the entire camera in this phone. The only question is when. That being said I only care in so far as being able to turn the flash on and off. I'm usually taking pictures in default settings though I might turn the flash off.
The Sense 3.0 camera app is the same as the one we have on the MT4GS, and as long as we run a version of Sense 3.0 we shouldn't have any problems. AOSP would be nice, but I'd like to have the nice camera functionality, and honestly I loved Virtuous Fusion ROM running Sense 3.0, I can't imagine how fast it would be on this device!
Yeah, the camera is something that I really want working on a custom rom. coming from the cliq though, everything seems fast stock on this phone.
I can't wait for Cyanogenmod on this phone. It really opened up my 3G slide with all kinds of cool stuff. When 3G slides were bearly getting official 2.2 Froyo from HTC, I had gingerbread for a while. I can imagine this bad boy running 3.1 or even the 4.0 that's supposed to be out soon!
Loved CM on my 3G slide, but I *personally* would not want to part with the functionality of the camera. Now if workarounds are discovered than that is a different story.
This phone is so much better out of the box than the 3G slide was though.

While we wait for cyanogen, are there other ROMs that work on the slide4g that people can recommend? The tmobile crap I can't uninstall is really getting on my nerves

[ROM][09/16/2011]Senseless_v2.1.2 Tweaked, Modded, Debloated, AOSP Pieces, ONLY 180MB
Just because something isn't CM7 doesn't mean it isn't a good ROM. People need to pay respect to those developing ROMs other than CM7 and MIUI as well, if it weren't for them we would still be on the stock rom with S-ON. Give this ROM a shot, I've been running it for a while and it is much better than the shipped rom and has full camera functionality.
The reason we don't have cm7 support is because there is no source code yet. You stuck with sense until then. Complain to HTC not within xda.

Wasn't complaining. Was just asking if any work was done. I found this article through a Google search and then did some forum searching after posting. Sad that the source for the kernel has to be released first. But if that ROM is more AOSP and has full camera functionality, it might be worth rooting my phone over.

DSP for the rest of us

one of the great things about cm7 is their system wide dsp. I use Spotify for my music and with streaming gaining popularity the included music apps get used less and less.
Currently I am on a sense based rom and am wondering if there are any Good dsp mods like the dsp in cm7 that work system wide out there for the rest of us?
I think there is a flashable somewhere in the sensation section for aosp dsp. And I think there's also a thread already asking (and has the link to it). But I'm on my mobile right now, and so searching for it won't get very decent results. But I know it's on here, as I have downloaded and flashed it before.

If the camera and some of the contact integration was as good in cm7 as it is in sense I would. But I take alot of pics and video with my camera.

A New Way to Achieve Root & S-Off?

I know some are having problems achieving root and S-OFF on their MT4G's that ship with 2.3.4.
A dev named Frigid has made a pretty powerful program that does that for you in no time.
Here's the link: http://itechnow.com/root-s-off-unlo...-3g4g-inspire-awesome-with-htc-super-tool-v2/
Obviously all credits go to him, so maybe that might be of help to some new users having problems downgrading and such.
Holy crap. Can anyone confirm this works on 2.3.4?
Nice find by the way.

My comment in another thread:
Jack_R1 said:
If they're just using gfree "as is" - then it won't work on Panache, and won't work on MT4G either. Unless gfree was updated and I don't know of a new version, it can't deal with 0.89.0005 bootloader on MT4G with Android 2.3.4 and on Panache.
Judging by the comments, the author of the script just grabbed several tools and put them together in one menu, he didn't change any of them and most of the comments state that this "tool" doesn't work for their phones.

No ROM is completely bug-free, but Sense 3.0 and 3.5 ROMs are much better than stock.

Didn't find them yet. I guess it depends on a specific ROM. I'm using VA 1.48.
In VU 2.39 I found 3 bugs. 1 visual, 2 made me switch to Sense 3.5 eventually, one was fixed (flash in camera on auto settings), one wasn't crashing the phone anymore (calendar events in Exchange mail - 1st recipient changed).

*Face in Palm*
That's what I said...The only ROM's it doesn't work with is Sense 4.0 because of some missing EGL or some crap that HTC took out when they decided to use Image Sense. It conflicts with the application.

Hurm, I am using InsertCoin RC1 Sense 4 and installed the instagram last nite. I snapped a few photos last nite and uploaded it to my fb.. I only get 1 FC while choosing the profile picture.

same rom, but now quite working 100%...more like 90% of the time for me.
Over exaggerating how good it works doesn't help the issue. Be honest. If you search the threads you'll see that out the box it doesn't work for hundreds..Look on twitter too...We're not crazy..It's more than hit or miss broski's. It's only Sense 4. I think it's some sort of hack they did tho get around that issue with ImageSense.
Please don't read the beginning out of context
Any word yet on the updates?

Yeah...It's the ImageSense chip for the camera that they can't get to work.
They updated the app but now i can load or take pics but when it comes to editing it freezes and reboots.
Sent from my Sensation 4G using xda premium
The way I get it to work is via reboot each time I want to upload a photo.
P.S. They just rolled out an update.
I'm having the same issue on sense 4.0, any word if the update fixed the issue?
Hey!
Anyone else on the HTC Sensation (XE) that Instagram no longer crops but rather squeezes the picture taken, making the aspect ratio f:ed up.
This started happening to me either in the latest update, or the prior one.
Right now I'm on:
Instagram 1.0.2
Android: 4.0.3
Sense: 3.6
Non rooted
I'm using Instagram's own camera interface. It's here where the problem has started to occur.
It works with the phone's own camera interface, but that makes it way more messy.
I'm not very happy with Instagram's "half ass" release. Every one else releasing cameras for Android can make it work.
Add Volume+ app as not working with Sense 4.0!
Instagram freeze my phone when loading a pic from gallery, yes with Sense 4.0, I wonder if One X users experience these problems...
Same problem for me, freezes reboots, when photo is loading, even can't see what the iOS user's buzz is about
Also on Shnizlon's Sense 4.0
P.S. Read about the update - installed again - nothing changed..

No one is over exaggerating here, it is working without any hiccups on ARHD sense 3.6, maybe sense 4 guys facing issues not sense 3.6 i guess.
Yeah, I saw that v1.0.2 was rolled out with fixes for HTC devices, but phone still reboots when filters load.
I think MIUI.us is finally updating from 2.2.24 to 2.4.6 tomorrow, I might try that ROM & Instagram.
