How to flash default HTC camera app. AOKP

Hello,
I am using this AOKP ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1751134
I love using this ROM, everything about it except for the camera. I don't like the camera at all, so I was wondering if there is any way I can flash the defualt camera app. I love the amazing fast capture option in the camera. Please if there is a way, let me know. I searched for it a while but was not able to find it.
Thanks.

unfortunately, sense camera requires sense framework which aokp obviously does not. in the foreseeable future, i dont think porting sense camera will ever be achievable, even with source.

rohan32 posted the following to explain it, and so people would stop asking the question:

[Solved] Stock Camera in non Sense?

I fell in love with Sense 3 on my Evo 3D, but I think I'm over it now. I'm tired of the behemoth ROM downloads, etc.
However, I am in love with this fast focus, pic in video, etc camera that this One S has stock. What can I do ROM wise to cut the fat but keep the amazing camera? I want CM10, but the camera sucks. I understand that the camera is probably something sense framework related isn't it?

Look at the Sense-based ROMs under the development forum. You won't find anything like it in AOSP/AOKP.

Try sense based miui (there are 2 different ones, make sure you get sense based). Personally not a miui user, but sounds like what you may be looking for.

I'll try that out, normally I wouldn't but I'm intrigued on this phone. I can't imagine how sense would mesh with that.
I'm blown away by this camera though. Not to veer the thread off too far but anyone know how to do the burst mode? I found something about limit to 20 shots per second or something like that, but I can't get it to burst

Just keep holding the shutter button down and it will start bursting until you left you finger or reach the limit

Ahh good , I was expecting mode

Found a great solution to my problem I got Viper One S ROM and unchecked Sense. Kept the lock Ring and the awesome camera

Yeah I was running that for a while. Still doesn't match the speed & smoothness of JB/CM10 (IMO) but true it does give you perks from both. Good news is we get official JB within the next month, so won't have to compromise much longer :victory:

So when official One S JB comes out then cyanogenmod can have the stock camera? I've been running Trickdroid but there's no updates on that and my phone starts to run like crap after a couple weeks. Just put CM10 Back on today, and forgot no good camera.
cm10 camera can do burst mode, but it's very clunky and in the menu.

[Q] is it possible to get the htc camera app?

I noticed that the stock ROM contains the ability to take HDR images but I haven't found a stock ROM that has that same feature. Does anyone know if such an app exists? Thanks

All of the Sense ROMs have the same function...

So lemme get this clear coz I was wondering about this. If I get a non-sense ROM I can get back the camera nicely installed and potentially any other Sense apps I like?

no

No. Sense ROMs are Sense ROMs. Like the name says. If you get a non-sense ROM, like AOKP or CM, you don't get any Sense apps.

To clarify the above.. The Sense apps don't work without all the behind-the-scenes stuff Sense roms have, including Rosie.
The Sense-based MIUI is a pretty good compromise, in my opinion. Been using it for a bit.. much more stable than the AOSP MIUI

Does it in anyway reduce the quality of the camera to not use a sense-app or will hdr app provide similar quality?

Forgot to mention that the Sense-based MIUI uses the Sense camera with all functions working.
As for other apps.. I've tried four or five different HDR apps and have had the best results with Pro HDR out of the ones I've tried. The Sense app is a close second.. partly because it allows widescreen HDR pics.
And as for quality..I myself haven't noticed much difference in quality with other apps, since it's basically still using the same hardware... I use Camera360 a lot and am not disappointed. I think the advantage of the Sense app is the high burst rate you can get out of it. And the panorama mode is better than almost every other pano app I've tried.. except one (but only because that one app allows 360 degree panoramic)

Camera: CM10 vs 4.0 Sense stock

Hallo guys,
I read on the CM10 dev thread that the camera in that rom isn't as good as the 4.0 Sense stock camera. Can anybody please explain what exactly is the difference between those two camera apps in terms of picture quality, focusing, shutter, velocity and video recording? And why is it not possible to make the camera as good as it is on the stock rom?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
br3ak

First of all, im not a developer but ive noticed that the cm10 camera loses all the sense software like continuous shutter and shooting photos while recording. Moreover, colors seem to have better contrast and saturation with sense. Can anyone else confirm this?

I think the sense cam makes really good pictures. I use it for snapshots in holidays aswell. I don't wanna miss the good cam, That's why I hesitate to switch to CM10.

Yeah it's great and if you dont wanna lose the cam it may be best to stay on sense till we get the official jb update

I'm no developer too, so i could be wrong.
But as far as i know, this phone has a dedicated chip called 'ImageSense' powering the camera.
So far only the Sense camera app is able to fully utilize this chip, and thus having many features which are not available on AOSP rom's camera app.
As for the AOSP roms, the devs are able to get the camera working, but not able to fully utilise the ImageSense chip.
As for porting the Sense camera app to AOSP roms, i think it is close to impossible because of some framework issue which means the sense camera app only can run on sense roms.
Please correct me if im wrong.

From what I remember reading, HTC also didn't supply the drivers to the ImageSense chip, so it couldn't be integrated into AOSP ROMs. Hence, only Sense based ROMs which already have the drivers built in can fully utilise the ImageSense chip.

[Q] which rom has the best camera quality?

Hi All,
I need a little help from the community. In the past I've flashed a lot of ROMs for fun, and because I was searching for the best available camera or photo quality.
Unfortunately nowadays I don't have the time for this so I'm a little 'outdated'.
Can you flash-o-holic people here share your latest experience with me regarding to this matter?
Should I still look for sense ROMs?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!

Why worry? If the camera on the ROM is no good, just download a good one from the App store.

Plus, we all have the same sensor (very poor) so it isn't much a matter of app, but how good are you in setting the right parameters into the app.

Sure we have but I noticed differences in quality even with 3rd party apps. Sense ROMs IMHO always have better quality than e.g. CM ROMs and I just wanted know if this tendency changed or not.

sense 3.5 roms have worse camera quality than sense 3.0 or 3.6 roms
