I guess I should've just originally posted this question here. How come when I take a pic with the front facing camera kn any aosp rom, the image it captures is reversed from the one I see on the screen while I'm about to take the pic. The picture it ends up taking seems unnatural and disproportional because everything is flipped. Anyone know a fix or a way around this? I haven't tried on sense ROMs but I'm willing to bet its the same, realllly annoying!

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.

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.

I can confirm that... I'm on Endymion currently and i see the purple line too... approx 3-4 pixels thick.
But to be fair to instagram, they do warn when selecting the advanced camera that it does not work on all devices...
Use Camera360 with Compatibility mode.

??? Why not just use the built in stock camera???
He wants to use instagram... And only has problem with the advanced camera inside of instagram. Just disable that option and you're good to go if your stock camera is OK. No sense using a third party camera of the problem is app specific.

The problem is with camera drivers from cm or the kernel.
The stock camera app has same problem.
That's why I use camera360 which have hardware compatibility mode.

Oh ok...
Just wondering... are you talking about an ICS ROM? Or GB? I think the OP has lost interest after starting the thread, and left us here to squabble!!
If you ask me, i think this problem is app centred, and I encountered it even on Instagram running on GB 2.3.5 (I'm running Endymion - Sense 3.5) where the stock camera is the best you'll find for the Desire S on any ROM.
I'm using stock ROM. Obviously I'm aware I can disable the option of using Instagram's in-built camera, but this is not the solution I'm hoping for I love Instagram filters but I don't like the fact I have to come out of the app and open up stock Android cam app, resize it, and go back again. Using Instagram's advanced am feature is so much better.
The rest of the image is fine and the option works perfectly APART from this one really ruining fluorescent pink line down the left side of every image.

Well, that's a bug with the app... sit tight, with Instagram's growing popularity, they're bound to roll out updates with fixes to the camera anytime soon!
Regardless, there's nothing you or I could do to fix an app issue. Instagram will have to fix that.
When you still experiencing this using Instagram camera try to switch to front camera take a shot, then revert to back camera. Pink line gone now. Works for me.

nope i couldnt be bothered to be honest, i'm just waiting till they release a better update
I have posted about this in specific rom threads without an answer.
Is it normal right now for the front facing camera to show up distorted (flattened out and fat) when using the front facing camera.
Every AOSP rom I have tried (cm10, aokp, brickbeatz, etc...) all have the distorted front camera image.
Wondering if its just something in the code that hasnt or cant be fixed.
thanks
Same. I'm pretty sure it's a known bug. Otherwise, we're just unlucky.
It looks like that for me. But I have noticed when you take a picture and view it in gallery it goes back to normal resolution.

Hey, I'm running paranoid android v20 and my camera just won't focus properly. Every photo I take in the regular app is either barely out of focus, and it doesn't adjust, or is in great focus but then it makes it completely out of focus/blurry and takes the shot! Ugh. I have Camera zoom FX in the meantime and that works, but I want to use the standard app. Any ideas?

Have you tried reflashing the rom? Or is there any possibility at the installation or a separate zip to reflash only the camera app? Or have you tried a different kernel?
No. I guess I could reflash gapps. It's weird though. I just took a few blurry photos and I looked in the gallery and they weren't blurry at all. Good, but why doesn't it display like that while snapping the photo? I can't know quickly if it was clear or not. :-\

I never experienced that on paranoid Android myself, maybe try reflashing and see if that helps. Best wishes.

Don't worry about it, each photo I take it displays as blurry, but in gallery they are fine.
Note: I have the 4.2 Transformation Pack
Hey guys,
I recently noticed that the One XL camera is doing some post-processing after the image is taken. It sharpens and brightens the photos, but also leaves them looking washed out. I've always thought that darker One XL photos looked a little washed out when posted on Facebook or Instagram.
This is especially evident when using the review feature in the Sense camera. When you take a photo, the one shot being reviewed looks sharp with a good contrast. But if you immediately open the photo that's in the gallery, you'll see the difference immediately.
Now, I'm wondering if there is any way to disable this? It seems to also happen in CM10, so it might be a hardware feature.
What ROM are you running currently?

I was running Newts JB and now I'm on CM10 with the same issue. Did you by any chance try the sequence I explained and notice any difference?
