Wondering (And maybe i'm too retarded to search correctly).. but, are there any camera mods out there that allow a KANG or AOKP or AOSP JB Rom to run a camera similar to what the Sense camera can do? (Burst pics, high res recording)?
I doubt so at the moment, perhaps one day there will be one. The only camera mod for CM10 that is available right now is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901917
I think it's impossible unless on a sense-less rom; sense applications runs over a sort of framework made by htc, so, in a rom derived from aosp this framework is not present, and the cameta app, like other sense apps, will not work

Hi everybody,
Before the Nexus S, I'd the Samsung Jet, nice phone with a very good camera application, especially the panorama option.
Unfortunately, on the nexus the camera app is really simple, and I can not find a good application with panorama option.
So I've tried to install directly the camera.apk coming from the SGS2 on my phone, but it seems to be impossible :-(
Anyone knows how I can get it?!
I suppose that it's impossible to install the ROM of the SGS2 directly on the nexus that there are both Samsung's products....
Thanks
Nico
You can't. The Galaxy S2 uses TouchWiz.
TouchWiz 4 needs to be ported onto the Nexus S in order for the camera to work.
This is a PURE Google device.
Thanks for your quick answer
So I need to have TouchWiz 4, if I want to install the camera app....
But I though it was just a launcher, no?!

You need the touchwiz framework not only launcher which is not ported

No. That was not ported, that was just taken from the ROM and put on here. It was just a coincidence that the launcher doesn't rely on the Framework.
All of the Samsung code apps like Phone/Contacts/Browser/Camera/etc all use code from something known as a framework. Without that framework, it won't function. And the framework is specifically designed for THAT particular phone and won't work on any other phone.
The framework is also closed source. So it becomes complicated to port. Is it doable? Yeah.
Would I count on a dev to port it and make it fully working and fast? No.
If you dislike the stock camera, look for alternatives. MIUI Camera (apart of the MIUI framework, Camera 360 (app), etc.
Thanks a lot for your comments.
I've already tried others version of camera but I didn't find yet the good version.
Is there a way to use the original, HTC Sense camera that ships with the stock version of the phone with [JB]Paranoid Android 2.52? I love PA but I loved the camera that came that the camera shipped with, specifically the ability to click and hold the shutter for a burst of images, and the various little filters.
I know the PA camera has a burst mode under settings but you have to turn it on and then you don't have control as to how long the burst is, you have to set a pre-defined number.
I've tried pulling the camera apk out of a the Venom ROM and installing it but I don't know how to replace the built in PA camera so I end up with 2 cameras and the 2nd one, the one I installed doesn't work then.

The Sense camera needs a Sense ROM. This has been well-established.
Please keep all question/help related threads in the Q&A section only. Thank You.
Thread Moved.
looking for a sense beased rom that either doesnt have sense some or has the option to install without sense.
Some of them give the option with aroma inst.
I also want the camera to have the ability to turn off auto focus. I know it had it for a while.
Let me know if you can think of one. ive tried a couple. the only one that i can install without sense sofar is maximus. but it has the 4+ camera so it will always auto focus(on the wrong thing).

MIUI is Sense based with the camera and all. I'm not sure if we have official support of the latest version but I know there are some threads in the development section.
Another option is ViperOneS 2.2.0. It has the option to 'remove Sense' in the installer which basically removes Rosie (Sense's launcher/homescreen) and all of its features. Of course you can also choose to remove some or all HTC apps that you don't want in the installer as well. I suggest this ROM as it's heavily customizable, you can make it looks like AOSP or anything really, and the camera is full Sense. I suggest try it and the camera it comes with. If not you can also try the modded Sense camera in the development section as well.
Hello,
I apologize if this topic has been covered in another thread. I looked and couldn't find the information that I wanted.
I am Stuck on TW roms because I can't get any of the Photosphere enabled cameras to be fully functional on any 4.3 AOSP roms.
I think I have tried them all. No matter the camera app/rom/kernel combination that I try, the camera always force closes or reboots my device when I use any of the front facing Camera/Video cam features. This is truely preventing me from using a 4.3 rom as a DD.
This may be a Noob question, even though I have been flashing roms since my Eris...but, why are there no ROM's that have a Photoshpere camera included? Why can I only get that camera as an .apk or flashable .zip? Confuses me.
For now, I am stuck on TW because I can have the Samsung Camera (which i love), and I can have a fully functional Photosphere camera and run them side by side.
If I could use the camera that comes with the 4.3 rom (for front facing camera & vid cam, i.e. hangouts) AND load the Photosphere cam, I would be happy, but one has to replace the other...unlesss there is a workaround I am not aware of.
Thanks!

You CAN get that camera as an APK - right here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...lery-camera-android-4-4-t2508471?goto=newpost
I'd post the link myself, but don't have enough priveliges to do so.
im using the photosphere camera on MOAR v8 from their Hub and im having zero issues with it.
Let me specify this question - I'm looking for a camera app with lots of advanced options, which is NOT on the play store, but rather is packed on a custom ROM. It can be close to stock, just with a few improvements, too, just list the name of the ROM containing the app (or the thread, if it's not in a ROM). My question isn't device specific, so the only criteria are:
The ROM containing the Camera app should be Jellybean on Kitkat
The closer to AOSP, the better (Which means no touchwiz, sense etc. based cameras, please )
I'm looking for a great, not too far from stock camera app to work with when improving the Galaxy Nexus and it's camera functions
