Hi,
i have an A510 (32GB) with Nothrills Franken700 Rom (newest).
The Frontcam has an resolution from only 1MP and when i will make Pictures they look OK. (For only 1MP Pics)
BUT when i will Skype with my Family in Dubai the Quality is like a 0.3 VGA Cam!
Can i do anything to have higher Quality?
Do you use the latest update of Skype ? (november, 20th)
i will make a testcall today (with the new update)
i flashed nothrills new rom on tuesday and dont test it with the new rom.
the cam works fine, but the quality was very bad thats the problem...
ipad from my mother works great (ipad 2: 1,2mp ?)
anyone have the same problem?
edit: i saw that my skypeversion was 2.8.0.920 (installed it with apk) and in 2.9.0.315 there is a Bugfix: Restored video quality on Nvidia-powered devices...i hope it works!

In this thread, Allanmb noticed that the Exec camera has a setting for 2MP. The pictures look damn good too!
Has anybody else noticed this apart from Splatt and myself?

it's a software enhanced resolution. it's 1.3 native.
Any 2i owner will be blown away by the difference in quality on what is supposedly the same camera...especially in super fine mode.
It's definately a 1.3, but it's the first time since the XDA2 (which compared to the XDA was better as it actually HAD a camera) where I felt a new XDA is an improvement imaging-wise.

Hi,
a few days ago I received a new Magician in change for my old one because of problems with the bluetooth-stack.
It had the latest T-Mobile Rom with camera V2.70 Built 21026.
After backup with Spritebackup it had the former camversion built 20117.
I took sveral photos in poor light on nightmodus and the pics were great.
So I thought that the new Rom has also a better performance with the cam.
But I had to change the magician again because of malfunction of the sim-slot.
The next new magician, btw the same Rom, the same cam built 20117 has the known poor pics (snow-effect...).
But see, these pics were taken with two different Magicians at the same place, same light, same settings, but such extreme difference in quality.
Can someone explain, how this is possible?
hi there..
just recently, i decided to flash my wizard, which was running NBD 8.3 for 4 months, with a few newer ROMS then now i settled to th_undead's MFR2.0 ROM.. i did so because i feel that my previous ROM is a lot slower than new roms and the free memory in the new roms are bigger..
anyway.. in this rom (and the other ones i tried - Jaguar 4.0), i am having camera problems.. it's not that it's not functioning, it just doesn't look right..
because of this, i tried old patches to make it shoot better..
i tried to apply the ov9650 camera patch that makes the camera's white balance and light recognition better.. but it seems not to work..
after installing patch, i am no longer able to launch the camera.. it just goes loading the camera (with rotating pie and Camera showing at the TopBar), then quits back to the today screen..
when i was using a WM5 ROM, i can use the said patch patch and obtained good quality pics.. when i switched to NBD ROMS (my first and only WM6 ROM series that i stuck to), the camera impressed me because it takes good quality pictures (especially in low low light conditions) even without the patch.. i thought that was supposed to be how the WM6 camera operates..
BUT..
no offence, the camera quality in this ROM, or other new wm6 roms i tried before settling (like Jaguar 4.0 and TNT) is poor compared to my prvious ROM, NBD 8.3.. especially in low light situations..
is there a wm6 patch to fix this?
here are sample pictures.. the first ones are taken with my previous rom (NBD8.3) and the next ones are taken just today, under same lighting conditions, in the same angling, same spot as where the first shots were taken (these are all within the house so it is easy to recreate the shots, and without sunlight ambience - just pure incandescent bulbs).. notice how dark the new pictures are..
click the thumbnails for the original pictures
please mind that those are the original unaltered pictures taken from my wizard, using two different roms.. i just want to point out the difference in quality (white/light balance)
also, i use the same settings (in the camera.. contrast, brightness, flicker frequency=50Hz, quality, etc) but notice that the pictures taken from the NBD 8.3 rom is larger (file size) by almost double.. i checked the camera versions used by both roms and it is the same build.. maybe some other factors affect different performance?
tough some may say that the old pictures look bad because the colors are ashed up, but i think the first pictures (from NBD 8.3) looks grainy and blurred because it compensated for the lack of lighting (like in a night shot mode).. even though, a washed up bright picture is still better than a sharper almost black picture..
can anyone help? i really miss the camera quality of my previous rom.. maybe some can use the settings or whatever that there is in NBD 8.3 that made the camera quality better and port it into these newer roms..
i am not promoting NBD or Zoki, nor rebuking other cooks for their work.. i am just wondering what is special in NBD's camera that makes it shoot better pictures?
yes... ive also seen this happen very often. Even when you use cool camera you will note that the picture quality is very diferente. Perhaps of the camera drivers that are loaded in different ROMS.
I was tired of WM6 and went back to my carrier's WM5 ROM surprisingly the picture quality was overall better than with any WM6 ROM.
I've been using the AKU 3.3 ROM and the pic quality if far higher than the WM6 versions I've used. This most likely depends on the driver in the OEMdrivers folder if you are cooking. Change that out and run G'reloc before you cook, and you will probably get better quality. I'd try it, but my device is being used so much now, I don't have the inclination to start cooking and flashing until the summer.
Hi to everybody
I'm a proud owner of a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 Wi-Fi only, now (since in sammobile are already news about how Samsung will leave us without updates (I mean, the GTab 3 is coming soon)) I have seen so far, the only thing that I don't really like, is the camera quality (whatever photo or video (but more the video quality), I know 3mp is not that much, but still HD is HD, and the video quality seems very like if the video was compressed, I mean, there is a way to see if the camera is being used at it's full quality, and if not, then how to do that????
by the way, sorry for my very bad English
Hi all,
my new OP 9 Pro Phone is a direct import from China (LE 2021) and I instantly flashed LineageOS 18.1 on it. Everything worked fine - but I'm disappointed by the Photo quality taken by the free camera apps like OpenCamera or ProCamX. The resolution ends up with 12 MP and the sharpness is rather bad an I can only use teh main lens. Only if I switch on the face detection function the sjarpness is quite ok, but not what I expected from a flag ship phone. The best Camera App I detected so far is the Google Camera apk (I installed MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1i_MGC.apk). But the sharpness of the fotos are still lousy to my mind. Any tipps how I can improve it ?
Thanks a lot !

And Google cam is awful on the op9 series as well. Stock oos is where it's at. You got device and flashed lineage immediately you stated. Never took any pics on stock prior?. I love my op9 cam. Just need to be on stock.

Nope. I love my custom rom, but I miss the photo quality. Is there any other way to receive high quality photos without switching to stock ? I heard that crDroid is working on a it. Is any progress known ? Thanks in advance ...
Commenting on the same topic - hate stock ROMs - love stock OP9 camera... I would even pay someone to Port it...
Gcam with recommended profile not working well?
Nope, the focus doesn't work well, the camera flutters a lot after I pointed the area on the screen I want to set sharply. I guess that GCam is the reason for that since the focus works well with e.g. pixtica or ProCamX foto App. But for pixtica the resolution of the foto is worse due to max 12 MP. See also ...
