[Q] Better Camera App for ICS - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I am using the latest released of AOKP for the HOX. The one thing I miss from sense 4.0 is the Camera App. The camera app for ICS is not bad but it is lacking on some features. Does anyone know of a great camera app that can replace the stock ICS camera app? Thanks!

I've been using UCam which is similar to the sense app, and much better than the ones in AOKP/CM. Its free on the market.

I've been using CameraZOOM FX. It does a pretty good job at image stabilization and the bloatware features don't get in your way like so many other camera apps. However, I feel your pain and I really miss the awesome sense camera since it integrated with the chip so well.

[Request] Htc Camera on CM7

I really dislike sense but the camera software is much better looking than the asop camera. I know someone did it on cm5. And enthomer was able to make it work on froyo. So would anyone be interested in giving it a shot for gingerbread?

I would love a way to port the HTC camera to cm7 and, more to my preference, MIUI. Not sure how feasibile it is because I thought the application is tied into the framework of sense.

the miui camera is a good alternative, just install this zip or push the apk inside the zip to system/app
That miui camera is a good alternative. Thanks for the tip.

nvmd I got it the bad thing is that it doesn't have the ffc option

what is FFC option? Been looking for the HTC sense camera myself over the CM7 cam. Pongsters GBX camera is decent though. Ah nvm, I guess the GBX camera is this MIUI camera. Only feature its missing for me is the ability to preview the picture after taking it until you tap, and allowing you to delete it right away.

Dear guys ...
sorry to pick up this thread again ... but, is there still no way to get the htc camera working on CM7?
No dear, till not no any such thing available for now....
Any Idea´s why it´s not working? ... what did HTC do with the APK, is the camera using diffrent drivers or so`?
One thing missing in the MIUI camera is the panoramic feature. I wish they add that option soon.

There are tons of Camera apps in the Market. Fuzzy and Blurry sounds like you have a fingerprint on the lens. I have nothing but good things from the CM7 Camera or stock LG Camera. They both have pros and cons but neither one of them produce fuzzy or blurry pictures.
Every single camera app I've ever used has produced the same quality images. Image quality is all about your physical camera itself, not the software utilizing it. Any camera app is just going to be using the same basic Android functions anyway, the differences are purely in the UI and any post-capture activity (filters, HDR, etc)

What is the best camera App for IQ?

Hello,
How are you?
SInce I am using my note a bit more to take pictures, I was wondering if there is a camera App that is better than the stock camera in regard to overall image quality, either by lower compression of files, or by better use of the camera hardware.
So, dear note users, what is your take on this?
Thank you.
Cheers!
I use as photo application Camera ZOOM FX https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=slide.cameraZoom is very good camera App :good:
I'm running Paranoid Android and find the stock Camera to be pretty poor. The best alternative I found is:
Pro Capture
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.neaststudios.procapture&hl=en
I should say though, that the stock TW camera is better.
CameraZoomFX is good if you plan to add effects and stuff to your pic's. if you want a more DSLR/professional like handling of the cam app and .png files instead of .jpeg, you should take a look at FV-5 Camera https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.lite there is also a paid version with even more features.
I'm using Pudding Camera and it's really cool but the stock app in TouchWiz is enough for daily use.
I use the Camera X or even the Shot Control Camera.. They have many customizable options like a pro at your finger tips
I am using shot control too.
Dev seems responsive according to comments.
Have emailed regarding geolocation support and custom folder support.
Other than that, it is a pretty sweet app that allows you to access features on the main screen.
So you can control ISO, and exposures, and focus modes easily.
You can also map to hardware keys.
The Note's large screen does help a little here.

@Markuzy Totally agree with you.. Shot control screen is just great on the galaxy note considering the screen size. The feature request is also just what i was looking for.
Is there any mod for the camera on the note? Like there is for the HTC One X?
Cheers

Honestly my dream camera app will be something that can do everything from HDR merging to fast capture to panorama.
Unfortunately I have yet to find an app that does all that. Only the individual apps for each feature can be found.
One thing I found out is that localized touch focus on Gingerbread Galaxy Note is proprietary to Samsung while it is native to ICS.
This may be something that you are missing out on 3rd party camera apps unless you are on ICS already.

Try Camera FV-5. It has all controll on the screen.

Camera Apps for AOSP

CM10/AOKP may not have the Sense camera, but the the Play store seems to have some viable alternatives. What camera Apps would you guys recommend for the HOX?
Running AOKP Build 3 if that makes any difference.

If you are looking for something similar in quality to the Sense cam, I think you may be out of luck. It has to do with the camera framework being specific to Sense. AOKP and AOSP roms don't have the same integration to 'unlock' the same quality. Or so the internet told me
AOSP does not have the same drivers for the camera/camcorder hardware that Sense has. HTC made the drivers specifically for Sense, and specifically for the camera that the HOX has, so obviously, the Sense camera will ALWAYS be better.
AOSP ROMs are currently using an open-source camera/camcorder driver, so yes it can be improved and the possibility IS there for it to be just as good, if not better, than the Sense camera, but it is VERY hard since HTC doesn't help out at all

Both of you are missing the point, reread the op he is asking for a alternative camera for aosp as the stock one sucks
Try to find the miui camera. Its much better than the aosp one

Can I ask a similar, related question? Do the 3rd party camera apps mentioned above work on Sense ROMs too?

Best non sense camera?

I am considering moving away from sense 5 to a kitkat Rom of some sort. I know that the sense camera is the best around but of course this is not available for non sense Roms.
Can anyone recommend a good camera app? I would like the option of taking hdr shots and panoramic. Also I'm interested in photosphere.
Maybe the stock kitkat camera is good.. I don't know yet as I haven't worked up the courage to downgrade hboot to 2.15...
All recommendations welcome

That's a tough one. There might not be any true replacement for the sense camera. I just installed Beanstalk 4.4 ROM and I found the stock camera to be horrible. Instead I am using Camera MX. I even tested the two side-by-side while I was still running sense and I would say that camera MX is pretty comparable for standard shots. Unfortunately it doesn't do panorama.
I am also hoping to try ProCapture which DOES do panorama.
