Nexus 5 camera replacement app - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Coming from a Galaxy S3, the only thing I miss about my old phone compared to Nexus 5 is the camera app / functions.
One feature in particular is the ability to pause the video recording and resume recording the same file. On Nexus5 I have to record numerous short videos and then stitch them to a final video. I gave Camera Awesome a try and it looks great for taking photos, but it doesn't have the pause video recording functionality.
Anybody tried a decent camera app that has this specific function ?

Anybody ?
This cannot be a Samsung only feature, I'm sure I have seen it on other phones

Google is working on a fix for the camera, I would just wait for that. It should be soon.

[Q] New Phone NO camera app, camera not working

Hello,
I just unboxed and connected my Nexus 5, i cant find the camera app anywhere in the phone and when I download a third party camera app it only lets me use the front camera, no option to change cameras. The front camera works fine. Any ideas?
Thanks
Try a factory reset. If that doesn't help then you need to do an RMA.

Video Software Question

I will be going to a concert in May. Since I have been to 1 concert already while owning this phone I noticed that recording video is a nightmare on the Audio part. It sounds really bad. My question, is there any 3rd party app that will do a better job? Or is this just how the phone is? I came from the HTC EVO 4G and while the audio wasn't perfect it was a a lot better than what the Nexus 5 can do.
I am stock and not rooted.

video software question!
With extended compatibility that covers many websites and file formats, All Video Downloader is the download option of choice for videos. Because it's done in dribs and drabs, however, the number of simultaneous downloads allowed is very limited. It's also worth noting that the software is at times unable to download some videos. During our test, an error message appeared several times when trying to download a video.

What Camera App Do you use

I do not see this in the OPO thread so I thought I would ask as I am searching for a good camera app.
What do you use? And what made you choose that?
Stock Cm11s Camera. Seems to take great quality pictures and I love the over aggressive HDR

Every third party app i use for take picture, every time i take a photo with flash, the picture has a line in the middle. Like two different brightness.
In sad because Snap Camera takes awesome picture.

It´s still working fine with 33R on your 1+1?
Camera Awesome
But something like Nokia Lumia Camera will be great
I use stock CM11S, very useful macro function and continous shooting.

QHD YouTube (root needed)

Guide to get 1440p working (root needed):
1. Wipe YouTube app
2. Uninstall YouTube app
3. Open file explorer that has root permission (i.e. es file explorer)
4. Navigate to /system/ (Make sure it's mounted as r/w)
5. Open build.prop
6. Change the line at ro.build.version.release=4.4.4 to ro.build.version.release=5.0 and save
7. Reboot device
8. Download and install this YouTube version https://www.dropbox.com/s/vm9ncnzyy7g94pf/com.google.android.youtube-5.10.1.5.apk?dl=0
9. Go to the play store and disable automatic updating of the YouTube app
10. Open YouTube app and select a video that supports 1440p
11. Pause the video and change the quality to 1440p
12. Close the video (just the video, not the app)
13. Select the video again
14. Enjoy
I've made this guide as thorough and fool proof as possible. The last few steps are optional and not always necessary, occasionally the setting for 1440p doesn't like to stick. A quick way to check if it took is if the load bar resets, if it does you don't need to close the video and reopen it.
Thanks. This worked for me

Worked. Thank you. Really nice.
I don't think this works, I can see other options but it is always at 720

I did but even if I select 1440P the video looks like is lower quality like 720, I downloaded a 1440P video from the app Tube mate and then tried to watch the same video on YouTube selecting 1440P and is not even close to the quality of the video from Tube mate.

On two different threads you're the only person that's experiencing this issue. I can tell you from my own phone that once 1440 sticks it looks noticeably sharper. Can you please double check that 1440 is sticking for you?
Well, this opened up 1080p to me, but 4k is still not available. My highest quality option had been 720 prior to this, so this is certainly an upgrade.

I don't know why you can't install it. The app is unmodified and has installed just fine for plenty of other people. What is the fine size showing when you download it?

[Q] Camera bug since Lollipop 5.1

Since I installed the 5.1 update on my Nexus 5 (no root) I've been having this bug on my camera app.
Every time I open the camera (whether it is the standard app, or for example inside the WhatsApp app) the brightness is just extremely low. The only way to fix this is taking a picture, close the app and open again. Brightness is back to normal and everything is fine.
A while later its just the same story all over again.
Any solutions or suggestions?
Am I the only one with this problem BTW?
How did you update to 5.1? Try to flash the factory images if you didn't do it before.
If it's a Google bug then it will might be fixed with 5.1.1 which is around the corner
Same issue for me on Nexus 4. Flashed factory images.
