LG Camera [email protected]@19Mbs [P990/P999]

Hi all, somemadacaant over in the O2x dev forum has modified the stock LG camera app to do [email protected] I can comfirm that it works on our G2xs. Froyo only of course. Here's a link to the thread.
[MOD][DEV] LG Camera 1080p @ 30fps @ 19mb bitrate

Sample videos look great.

Thanks for the info. This works perfectly. Much smoother video performance.

Thanks erikku...i seen this in the 2x forum but was afraid to test it due to certain software separations between the 2x and g2x...want to report that it works great ...compared it to an older video I took and there is no lag or jerkiness...sound seems less distorted than before too!! Maybe soon they'll figure away to change the container from. 3GP to .MP4...

[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.

What's the difference between stock GB cam and LG Cam 3.0? Does it look different?

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.

LG CAM 3.0
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.

[Q] ICS to finaly bring HD video to Nexus S?

I love my Nexus S phone but it's almost the only Android phone being sold today without HD video. The camera's resolution should support 720p video (as the Galaxy S), and the problem is the lack of support for HD video by the native Android operating system.
Now, that the Galaxy Nexus will support 1080p video recording with a native Android, do you think the Nexus S will get it too?

No. our hardware is limited.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G

This is a question I am very interested in hearing the answer to as well. It would he nice to see HD video capabilities as well as the super fast shutter speed be provided by the OS to the Nexus S and not a hardware exclusive feature of the Galaxy Nexus.
It would also be nice if the update to ICS fixed the screen burn in on my phone caused by the notification bar.

I think it's the same camera as the Galaxy S

Have you tried fast burst camera in the market? Just until we get ICS. Works very well

Not even 720p?

i recall the nexus s not getting 720p recording due to codecs

Nexus s is not doing 720p video. It is not a limatation with the os.
Search the forum if you want a detailed reason why.

Yes. Do a search. It is a hardware limitation, not software.

Nexus s camera sensor is different than galaxy s sensor because they needed the extra space in the phone casing for the NFC hardware in our phone. The sensors are physically differant. The pics are around here some where if you search for it. It shows both camera sensors to compare.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll check that app out.

So that means the Nexus brand will always have a lesser camera
The Nexus One had a 5MP at launch with no HD video at launch.
The Nexus S still have a 5MP camera with no HD
No, the Galaxy Nexus still have a 5MP camera when everybody else use a 8MP camera.
I can't understand why google equip their flagship phones with relatively crappy cameras

Ahh you are falling foul of the MP myth dude, MPs are a size issue so unless you are printing posters then its not the MPs but the sensor too. You could have a 12mp camera with a ****ty sensor and an 8 mp with a good one and it will take the better picture. It is also dependent on the cameraman too of course.

Ah, this. You can give some people the best camera in the world and they still take the crappiest pictures....

If you use google plus follow Romain guy he uploaded a sample video filmed with the gn and it is outstandingly amazing, screw the megapixels this bad boy is fantastic!

Someone can confirm that video mode have an image stabilisation option? Or this feature is only important for Apple?

The Galaxy Nexus has it, will the nexus have it nobody knows. It depends if it is hardware or software based.

Thanx! I hope the Galaxy S2 will also get this feature with an Ice Cream Sandwich.

I think the GS2 already have this feature implemented

CM7 Camera Issues (Widescreen Issues)

Got the CM7 build on my Skyrocket and it's great. But my camera won't record widescreen video and only shoots widescreen pics at 2.5M. Am I missing something here?
Sent from my SPH-P100 using xda premium

I'm seeing the same thing here using CM 7.2.

Okay. So we have two cases of this. I'd say that gives this question some merit. I should mention I'm using the dag kernel. Any ideas people?
Sent from my SPH-P100 using xda premium

Okay. So does anyone know what's going on here? I can't shoot widescreen photos or videos. This is a really big problem.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium

I have the same problem. I have CM7.2 v4 and the latest Da_g kernel. I did a little more digging, and found out that when recording "HD" in video mode, the resolution is actually 640x480. That's why it doesn't look widescreen. If you switch the resolution to "Hi", it records 720x480, but at least the aspect ratio is correct. To get 8mp pictures, you need to make sure you switch the resolution in camera setting.
I did several complete wipes and reinstall without any luck. Was able to get all the other problems, such as LTE APN and audio working. So this is the only thing not working. Any help is much appreciated!

Okay. I shot some video using the various settings, and I see what you're talking about with the "Hi" setting and 480p(WS) video. But there is no way to shoot 720p/1080p(WS) video or 6.5MP(WS) pictures using this ROM as-is (at least not that I'm aware of). The stock Skyrocket ROM allows 720p/1080p(WS) video recording and resolution settings of varying aspect ratio for photos.
Where's the love people? I didn't put CM7 on my Skyrocket just to take it for a spin and/or play around with it. I knew what I was doing and I wanted CM7 on my phone. I've been a devoted Cyanogen user every since I flashed my NOOK Color with it so long ago. I just want the ROM that I love and trust so much to properly interface with my device's camera and user. Is that asking too much? I flashed my phone with CM7 to add features, not to remove them.
I'm all out of ideas here. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Anyone... please!

I think it's something we'll just have t owait for an official CM7/CM9 release. The dev who put this together has his own Skyrocketeer ROM. So this is kind of a hobby for him, which I can appreciate. The official CM devs are probably busy on CM9.
If I had enough posts, I'd put it in the thread in the dev section. That *may* prompt a better response. Until then, I think we just need to decide if it's good enough for what everyday use.

[q][req] modded camera app for sgr

Could any of the devs make a modded camera app for our SGR to increase its performance?

If i'm not wrong, this thread should have been in APPS Section, dont worry mate, even i did like this only, posted in wrong sections
and yes, even i look forward to have an app like this !

there's the lgcamera available on the market with features like full 1080p, autofocus, antibanding (for recording off tvs) (i once asked for this feature myself)

Even if I change video recording resolution to 1920x1080 in lgcamera, it still records 720p.
