[Q] Galaxy S Camera apk on Nexus S?

Might be a noob question, but can it be done? Even if its not for the 720p video recording possibility, the galaxy S has alot of features within the camera app that are useful!

I was interested to know that too....

No it requires the touchwiz framework. There are many threads about this. Use the search feature before making a new thread.
Try the miui rom it has pretty much nice camera functionality or a third party app such as camera 360

[Q] Advanced Camera App (Shutter speed, etc)

Is there an advanced camera app that works on the G2X? I haven't rooted my phone yet but I'd do it if a rom has a better camera app or something. I'm looking to being able to control my shutter speed, ISO, white balance, and possibly aperture (Although I'm not sure if camera phones even have adjustable aperture).

Camera360 has a good amount of options, you should check that out.

When They took the lg camera away I tried every camera app in the market and none of them were any good I wasted alot of money buying the pro versions and they all sucked most were not even as good as the stock vanilla android camera that we go with the GB update and certainly not as good as the froyo LG camera app. Sorry to sound negative. On a good note you can now get the LG froyo camera on GB it has been done I have it and you dont even need to be rooted

Please explain how you got the LG Cam without being rooted...

You know you get a 15 min window to get a refund on apps bought in the market, right?..

I've recently purchased Camera Zoom FX (after using Camera 360 for a while). It works with the front-facing camera and has some good basic requirements. It also has tons of extras I will probably never use, but then I just want to take a fast shot that is clear and crisp.

Hahahahaha +1

Thanks for all the help guys. Camera360 doesn't have any of the exposure settings I wanted except for white balance but I'll root and flash a rom with the LG Cam and see how that goes.

[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] camera app suggestion

hi i'm using arhd 3.6.5 but you can check my signature.
the main thing i want is to people to suggest me some good camera app roughly about free or £1-5 not higher but the camera should have noise reduction because stock camera app give me too much noise on screen which i hate it.
i just need some good app name that will make better use of this camera.
beside dont write about camera mod because i'm using sense 3 and i cannot install any mod. i have use pudding camera but i was thinking if anyone know a better camera app than pudding camera

[Q] Change Camera & Beats Audio after flashed custom ROM?

Sorry for my noobness... but I flashed the paranoid ROM for my one S, the ROM is awesome except I don't like the new camera UI(It has a solid bar that takes up 1/4 of the screen, just for the shot button...), and I don't know if its possible to change this?
Another thing is how am I able to get beats Audio after custom ROM?
thanks in advance!

Paranoid is based of CM10/9 (main point is its stock android) so you will not be able to use the sense camera as it requires the sense framework. Basically, the camera requires HTC's proprietary camera drivers that are only available in sense-based roms like viper. Unless some magical developer with amazing skills comes along, it will never be possible. Now for beats, i have a solution and its called Awesomebeats.

i personally don't like it as i prefer a flat sound without any EQ changes but whatever, to each there own.
Hope i helped

Thanks! that helps a lot!
so if im not mistaken, it means that basically all the stock CM9/10's camera UI has that huge bar taking over the screen, and resulting smaller pictures?
what if I install some third party camera software and use those instead, do I get the same basic performance(pic quality) from my camera?

Didn't virtuous team achieve something like this over in the sensation boards? Basicly a real senseless Rom that kept the camera but replaced basicly everything else with aosp stuff all within the HTC framework? That would be really interesting if someone can achieve that for us since we all love aosp but want to keep the camera

Yes and no. Im going to assume that when you took your pictures on sense, you left the widescreen setting, meaning the pictures you took with the sense camera are actually smaller. When left in widescreen, they cropped from the top and bottom resulting in a 6 MP widescreen shot. The AOSP camera takes the full 8 MP. Dont be fooled by the aspect ratio

Yea but too bad the quality ain't the same, google should really consider better cameras for stock I mean that's all a nexus device really lacks anyways

This is really one of the biggest drivers for people sticking with sense-based ROMs over AOSP and/or AOKP-based ROMs.
So, if you want the stock camera - look at the sense-based ROMs on the forum.

well i did extensive tests, both low and well lit situations, quality is the same. As a matter of fact, maybe even slightly better on AOSP. There is less compression, and can be seen when zoomed in. The only difference between the AOSP camera and Sense is the speed and functionality. And if youre using a Nexus, the speed of the camera is insanely fast. Look up videos on youtube, the nexus has a good camera.

Change to the viperone s Rom its great and you keep the camera from the original Rom
