Photo sphere bad stitching? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can't seem to get any picture to stitch right, any advice or tip? I've tried everything what's the secret
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium

The secret is not to use it on these phones, it's terrible.

I don't see how the phone has anything to do with it as its just app essentially

You have to move the camera to the spots without moving the position of the camera... imagine the camera is on a 360 degree tripod... trick is, you're the tripod lol...

Yeah you would need to have tripod, or only shoot like stock panorama, only horizontaly. Its difficult not to change a position at least for a little which is enough for picture to be misplaced. Nice picture, btw, the 2nd one.

Hi,
Can you post the link of the camera app you installed on your device? ... I'm using a Nexus S and sometimes not all the pictures taken in Photo Sphere are being shown after the render is complete.. like I took a full 360 picture but i could only see half of it in the photo sphere viewer, the rest is black. Also i cannot apply the Tiny Planet effect.. the gallery FCs when i try to apply it.
Any guesses on how i can fix this?
Thanks

The black is when the pictures taken aren't good enough to stitch together... even on the image i posted in here, i took shots of the sky as well but it turned black because of lighting or bad pictures... not sure exactly but that's my best guess...

Does anyone have the *newest* version (ie after November 14th) of the camera and gallery app? The one that allows sharing to Google maps, and has the arrows for photosphere to show you where the closest blue dot is?

I too noticed that when i shot fully 360° shot, up-down, left-right, photosphere just doesnt include all photos. Like it says, "hey, thats too much photos, i will remove top row pictures and stitch the others". I dont have anything black etc, sphere just doesnt include images in stitching. It might be our phone is weak or something so it cant handle.

Yea that's what I meant. I meant black as in the pictures are not included in the photosphere viewer.
Well I don't think our phone is weak for that. Because it can take panorama pics very easily, and it probably captures more photos than photosphere before stitching them all together.
I think it could simply be a compatibility issue, since the rendering bugs sometimes.
Also, did you guys manage to fix the Tiny Planet effect FC?

same here... i think the camera isn't all that good honestly. The iPhone 4's camera blows this one away
My experience is that the flash is awful with any significant ambient light
Im sure with certain advanced settings within the phone the photo quality can get better.
Also the focus can be manually changed, on my photos like I mentioned there was absolutely no light in the room.
At the end of the day if you want the best quality photos, its time to invest in a top of the line point and shoot camera.
a picture i took a few days ago. it seems like it focus' nicely but when you take a picture no matter how still you hold it you get a blurry picture.
Deadly combo indeed.
I took these just now....

Fisheye'd lens attachment for the G2x.

Don't drool! Welcome the first G2x with a fisheye'd lense. It's a completely removable. I used this same lense on my Samsung Vibrant (and the sample photos you'll see below are from the Vibrant, NOT the G2x just yet). Now my G2x will be doing all the work.
The lens has a magnetic ring on the rear and then you apply a ring as well to the camera on your phone that has some adhesive in the rear of it.
Some of you will ask where I got it from. Well. There are several types on the internet of the same brand, but this one seems to give the best picture and less blurriness around the edges. It rocks.
Only issue I see is the flash will be semi-blocked and might cause odd lighting. Since I came from the Samsung Vibrant it won't be such a big deal to turn the flash off for the time being.

I just went to ebay under In Cell Phone & PDA Accessories. I typed in "Lens" for a general search because i wasn't sure what was available. they are all universal kits that usually stick on with magnets or clips
I really like the typical magnet style but also saw this as a bundle for cheap. Might be worth a shot considering the similar price.

Most of my pictures come out crystal clear if i wait for the focus box to turn green which means it's "focused" as far as the the app is concerned. Although, I've had plenty of times where it thinks its focused, but the preview looks like barf. Maybe there's a different focus option for long distance pictures... I don't know. xD

Doesn't look that sharp to me, but this seems to be the trend with all the photos I've seen in reviews (don't have my atrix 2 yet). The macro shots can look good, especially the ones that showcase rocks for some reason, but further distance its pretty blurry looking compared to other high-end phones. The colors are kind of drab and probably the most annoying to me is that the image comes up much darker than it should, at least in comparison to other phones (there's several blogs that pit the atrix 2 against the gs2, amaze, etc.), so images shot at noon in a clear sky look like they are shot in a cloud covered day. These are probably automatic settings. Dunno about adjusting it and all that. Wish it would autofocus in video too.
Drag the focus box instead of tapping.

The camera is on par with most of the devices out there, sure there are some better but this phone is just fine. If your taking a picture that you need to scrutinize that much then use a camera not your phone. Personally I bought my phone to be used as a phone with the benefit of having a camera. I don't understand why people buy a device an then scrutinize it to hell. Would you buy a car without test driving it?

Not bashing the camera at all here I was just getting opinions from others about the picture quality from a supposed 8mp camera
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
The A2 has a ton of potential but there's too much time after you press the photo. Press the button and it takes so long the pics blurred from movement. The oem cam app is lame and it doesn't do good at night. I used cam zoom and it does torch mode for night. Also during the day colors were washed out even in indirect sun light. I really like the camera but the SGS II oem camera app destroys it. The pics regardless of the light are sharp, clean, and overall great. I did however really love the HD recording. Did some really good recordings with zero complaints.

Yeah I do realize but in most cases higher MP do result in a better picture. 8mp cameras usually shoot better than a 5mp. But the quality issue probably is because of shutter lag

No, no, no, you got it all wrong. The megapixel rating just tells you how large of a picture the camera can take, the sensor is what determines the quality of said picture. Read this article to get a better understanding.

New Official Google Camera

So just in case not everyone follows The Droid Life, I thought I'd post the new Camera App since photography quality seems to be one of biggest aspects of the phone people chase.
Let's see how it stacks against our Generous Dev's Xdabbed's and Jishnu's modified camera apps that they have done wonders with. I don't know if it'll be of any use to us since they've been pushing the stock app to the max, but maybe it's worth giving a try for UI experience.
You need to be on Android 4.4+
Google Cam APK
Here's the DL overview of it. Tour
I myself don't think it will compare with the quality and feature's Xdabbed has packed into his but new stock options are always nice.
Update: Ok so I've done my first comparison. Both at 13MP, Med/Low Lighting, and forced flash with a steady arm.

Strange, but to me the google cam looks a alot sharper quality as per the rug and cat fur. The colors also look deeper i.e. the pink leopard spots. I'll have to play around more
Update 2: So I believe Google's Cam takes amazing pictures in ideal lighting and photo conditions, but Xdab's really strives at being a more versatile photo taker when it comes to other conditions such as low light.
Yeah, I saw this on D-L also. So far I am very impressed and happy to have Photo-sphere back in the arsenal.
One thing I want to try and do is hack the app to either add a 10Mwide [16:9] option or change the parameters on the 7.7M option to be the 10Mwide format that is available on the stock LG camera. Which is the one i use the most and allows for the full screen view w/ semi-transparent shutter button.
played around for a while. could not get photo sphere to work correctly. blur effect is good. images to me don't appear to be any better than lg stock camera app. certainly not many filters/effects etc. thanks for the download thought.

this is awesome. i love the blur effect. kinda like the M8 instead of having 2 camersa you raise the camera a bit and it takes another shot to create the depth of field effect.GENIUS!
I'm gonna play around with this a little more, but I actually think this might be a little sharper than X's mod.

In some phones the capture button is transparent. Why in the g2 is not and how can I get it to be transparent? I have cm11 with gapps but the camera app in the play store didn't let me update but install.
This new google cam it is not so good in low light scenes...
Let's try to take some pics in dark scenes, you can notice that it is not able to focus using the flash led while stock/modded lg cam yes.
i dont like how small the pictures come out.
I love it, nice for custom roms!
Its really just meant for being simple and taking quick shots without cumbersome load times for instance like the HDR mode is super quick. I'm sure with more app updates on the way this camera app will have good potential
Low light shot.. first is x's camera, second is Google.
In low light x wins

Yeah just seen your post over on the N5 forum. Not sure why it's different, possible the GPE m8 changes it slightly for whatever reason ?

Strange isn't it! You'd assume it's the same apk coming from Google Play, so must be something to do with the phone itself.
The GPE M8 is still HTC framework underneath right... just missing Sense and a few other HTC bells and whistles?

That's me, it's semi transparent in camera mode. Also, when I take a photo, the photo is the size of the whole viewfinder including the semi transparent part.

Haha, nice to see you here
What ROM are you using, and what's the build number on your camera app?

Same build number here.
Strange, must just be something to do with our different phones rather than the app in that case.
I have a black bar around the edges of the Viewfinder. Anyone noticed the same?

Yep and the black edges are very bothering
Gesendet von meinem HTC One M8 Google Play Edition
Installed on an M7 running an M8 Sense 6 port (InsertCoin) and there's no black edges - the viewfinder is the full screen and the shutter area is semi transparent. I like the fact that when you switch to video mode and you're in portrait view there's a constant icon telling you to rotate the camera (which does go away if you start recording). Google finally trying to kill off portrait videos - good for them! haha
IMO, the Google Camera App does produce a greenish tint on the M8, at least in the refocus mode after you refocused a little and let it render.
Already set the quality to high quality, but well, tinting is still there. Its not really heavy tinting, but enough to annoy me.
Normal photo mode seems fine so far, even tho it doesnt produce as good colors as the htc camera app.
Nevertheless, the new refocus tech is pretty logical and on still elements pretty powerful. I cant see it really useful for quick snaps or faster moving objects since it requires careful and steady movements.
Really hope that HTC improves the stock HTC camera app to let us adjust blur levels with increased accuracy on the captured image itself. the fail rate on ufocus sadly is pretty high still.
EDIT: I attached 2 images to show the green tint. First one is the shot right after i took it. second one is after refocusing. as you can see, there is a significant tint after processing. I even have the impression the processed image is now lower quality than before.
