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.

Just a quick question, not sure if this is the correct place to post this. I noticed that all the ROM's with the exception of 1 all have the TW Camera app as the default camera program. I then saw that the new Eclipse ROM came out and it has the AOSP camera.
Is there a way to extract the AOSP camera app and install that into a different ROM? Not sure how the whole framework thing works. etc... thanks!
First, why would anyone want to use the AOSP Camera app? Not saying it doesn't get the job done, but compared to the stock TW Camera app, it's not very nice looking, and the last time I used it, it wasn't nearly as functional. That aside, you should just be able to replace the APK as I don't think there should be anything that will affect functionality missing, but I can't say that for certain as you may run into issues.
Isn't there a camera firmware apk? Or is this in all phones and it's just what the actual camera app uses to communicate with hardware?

Thanks Innuts. I was just curious. Maybe its just me but when I take pics in portrait mode the buttons don't rotate to portrait mode like AOSP. Also I noticed sometimes if you take a picture in portrait it doesn't rotate the image, so it looks sideways. I noticed this when taking a picture then sharing it to social website. I was just going to test both out for fun

Wouldn't an AOSP camera allow for enhanced or modded Camera apks? I know we already have some slightly modded camera apks. One thing I think would be cool is some sort of adjustment to take shots at different exposure levels automatically.
Another thing that would just be insanely cool is the ability to pull out the RAW data. Is this possible with AOSP camera, or would a camera firmware rewrite be necessary? I would be completely blown away with RAW.
I personally like the tw camera, so I pulled the camera apk and camera firmware apk from tweakstock and put them into eclipse. while I was at it I also pulled the clockpackage apk, calculator apk and the calender apk from mnml and put in eclipse a well. As you can see I like the tw apps, but I love the speed of eclipse.Don't know what the difference is but the phone opens instantly on eclipse which is something I haven't been able to get any other ROM to do. So I think I will stay with eclipse with the tw apps for now until something better comes along. Sorry to hijack the thread, just wanted to put in my two cents.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Anyone flash these 4.2 mods (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991734) on one of our 4.1 ROM's like Synergy? Mod includes:
- New clock
- New Gmail
- New Music app
- New Launcher
- New 4.2 keyboard
- New 4.2 Camera
- 4.2 Sounds
- 4.2 Bootanimation
- 4.2 Fonts
Doing a nandroid backup right now, will be testing on the latest CM10 nightly to see how it works.
*update* Flashed and tested, everything seems to work well, except for the camera. You take one photo and it locks up, and then the device can't access the camera until reboot. It did the same under AOKP M1 on my GS3. I'm restoring from nandroid now.
That sucks.... Well we won't see a new 4.2 ROM until late December because of how different the system is for 4.2.

To take pics with the camera you have to touch the screen to focus first. There is a bug with it noe that it can't auto focus.

I tried everything, the camera won't work correctly yet. Just wait, plus the stock camera has better features and takes better pictures too so i'm not complaining.

Just put this mod on my gs3 no issues at all with any of the downloads. One question what is the difference between the old music app and the new updates on this one.
Does anyone know when we are going to get the new lock screen were we can put a widget with the lock screen

Did you touch the screen before taking a picture to make the camera focus? Like I said above you cannot leave it on auto focus or it will force close and you will have to reboot the camera to get it working again.
I assume the camera y'all are using is the same as the one here:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...-roms-hacks/220830-jelly-bean-4-2-camera.html
If you can't get the one working that you're using now by touching the screen to make it focus then try this one. There is a flashable zip. I don't know if its in the OP yet or still on one of the last few pages but I know for a fact that the flashable zip places all the libs in the right place and the camera and photosphere works perfectly. You still have to touch the screen to make the camera focus on this one too because if you don't it'll force close too and you have to reboot to make the cam work again. Just make sure you touch the screen before snapping the pic!!!!!

I saw it in different forums for other devices but not here on One S. Looking after it, I've found a version that is working on our devices and I've thought to put it here as well for others to enjoy.
Gallery version is 1.1.40012
Just to be sure... I don't take any credit for it, I just found it, tested if it's working and put the download link.
To install:
1. Download from below link and save it on your sdcard
2. Install using a file manager, I wasn't asked for root permisions and it was NOT installed in system/app (original camera/gallery app are preserved). A new Gallery and Camera apps will be shown
3. Enjoy
DOWNLOAD
What works and I've tested:
- take pictures on all res
- photo-sphere works
- panorama works (I've got though some garbled photos at the end)
- front camera works
- video recording works (both 720 and 1080)
- all settings work
Bugs: (I found only two by now)
- garbled photo for panorama's
- the small lower right circle/icon for popping up the settings is somehow cropped (part of it is shown little bit up) but this is related to the incorrect resizing of the app I believe.
Tested on MIUI V5 3.7.19 but I'm pretty sure it'll work on other ROMs as well
Working fine for me on rom stock, thank's
I had problems installing this app on paranoid.
The answer is easy :
If you have problems installing this you have to uninstall existing Galleryapp using Titanium Backup app first then install the APK.
Just in case someone wonders how's the quality of this camera, I've made some few tests and posted my findings HERE. (I was asked to compare this camera with MIUI's camera)
does the "burst" mode work?. Will it work on non-sense rom? Thanks.

It has very few options (maybe because it's not fully released???). I couldn't find a "burst mode". It doesn't have HDR as well.
It should work on non-sense ROMs since it's AOSP. I've tested on MIUI which is sense based but Daihogo said he tested it on Paranoid and that is a non-sense ROM.
Tested on CM10 HTC One S(s4), and no burst mode. Everything else works. Kind of "strange" set up, but could get used to it. The "no burst" is a deal breaker. Sadly, going back to sense rom. I hope that someone will "make" version with burst mode.
Been Using this for a while now and love it. the volume rocker works for taking snaps
Works great!
Too bad it doesn't place the pictures in the same map as the stock camera

The stock (sense) camera and AOSP camera always place the photos in different folders under DCIM. One places them in "camera" the other in "100media"
I saw someone else did an MD5 and this is the same camera from the SGS4 release a month or so ago. Still, it's an improvement if only for the fact that the stupid shutter button doesn't move when rotated anymore. I gladly will give up all the CM customizations for that alone.

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.
EDIT: Looks like I was beat to this project by digitalhigh, check the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...ment/app-sense-camera-gallery-m8-rom-t3008262
First off, apologies if this is in the wrong subforum but I can't post to any of the development ones, due to this being my first post (on this account, I think I had an old account but I can't remember). So, hopefully I'm not doing this terribly wrong or anything. However, I do have something a bit interesting that I honestly didn't think would work: HTC Sense's camera and gallery working on CyanogenMod.
I've been wanting to switch back to CM for a while, since my old phone was a Galaxy Nexus. But, I didn't want to have to give up the camera features from HTC Sense. The camera on CM12 absolutely sucks when compared to the HTC Sense camera. I've been looking around for a solution, and every post I found said that getting the Sense camera/gallery to work on an AOSP-based ROM was impossible. I didn't believe that, so I tried getting it to work myself, and figured out that's not really true. None of the apps or libs were modified, they were simply pulled off the latest HTC Sense release.
Current usability
Camera app launches, you can take pictures (+ burst mode works). Gallery also is working mostly.
Current issues
These are still the issues I'm having. If anybody else could help me figure them out, I'd be really happy. I was able to figure out getting this running so far by using logcat.
- Video recording is stuck on very low video quality. MMS (176 x 144)
- Zoe camera is not usable (possibly because of above)
- Manual camera mode crashes the app
- Minor interface bugs
- Probably a lot more

Check my attachments to this post. Note that the navbar/status bar do go away, I just had them there to show I was still in CM12 when taking them.
Release?
For now I'm not making a release, but if you install all the apps/libs listed, you'll be where I'm at. Maybe if there's enough demand I'll create a flashable ZIP.

(google translator) good day.

Hello there
Is this list of apks/libs working for AOSP based marshmallow ROM? Like CM13 or Dirty Unicorn. HTC One M8 running Marshmallow with Sense 6 is not smooth enough for me. Really want to switch to ASOP based ROM but HTC Camera is too good to give up. Looking forward for some solution, that would be so awesome.
