Galaxy S4 camera apk port or alternatives... - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, is there anyone working on porting the galaxy s4 app for the Nexus 5?
I really love my Nexus 5, but the S4 camera app is way better! better pictures, better modes, I can take pictures while filming or I can press and hold the photo button and it takes 20 pictures in a few seconds... those are features that I miss in Nexus 5 camera app...
If there is any alternative, please comment below.. thanks!!!

Hi,
You can do that with the Nexus 5... At least with the stock camera app.

Can they even port the s4 camera onto the s4 aosp? Usually not.
Pretty sure you just press the screen when recording video to take a picture.
please don't post questions in general

sorry about the question in the wrong place

You listed 2 different features. We answered we have 1 of them.

Ok. But why put "or" in your sentence?
For me you speak about two different things, take pictures while filming AND long press on shutter button to take 20 pictures in on time...
But no worries.

Search and you will find: Moto X Camera, LG Camera Port, Modified "Stock" Camera. I've only tried the modified stock one, and like it a lot.

HTC One S camera

Just curious if anyone else is having thos problem. When I take a picture close up to something an click the screen for focus it gets really clear then goes back to blurry. I was wondering why my pics that were distant were blurry that's why I took a close up of my hand and it did that.

I've not updated my phone via OTA. I'm running a custom rom and it's still blurry to me. Just like the OP described: ''It'll be clear for a second and than become blurry''
don't go too near. back-off bit by bit till you can get focus.
So far, One S has got best camera among Android phones. Even though they said it's same camera module as One X, I compared two of my friends' One X and find out that my One S works better in low-light condition.
Well when take a HTC Amaze lol and take pics as close as you want. I noticed the horrible camera bugs after ota I wish I would have never updated.

I have this problem too.
But sometimes i managed to get it to work but i'm not sure how i did it.
You might want to try putting the aspect ratio to 4:3, focus on something near, it still will not focus.
Then change back to 16:9, then try to focus on something near again, then it'll work.
Im not too sure if it'll work for everyone, but it works for me somehow.

It drives me nuts, I wish there was a option to turn off auto focus to see if when we touch the screen to focus does it focus better

[APP_REQUEST] 4.2 Camera with working photosphere

Hi.
My camera from android 4.2 is downloaded from this page and my photosphere is too slow. Photosphere is working but is very slow. I mean that after take first picture I must turn my phone around me for take second picture... Can anybody reply me and help? It would be great!
Thanks for advices
AOSP 4.0.4
No one?
Every version I've seen requires you to do that. You have to line the up the dot and depending on what's moving and the light it could take up to a second before it takes the picture.

Line Across Camera Screen?

There's a line across the screen when using my camera app...stock camera app...I'm on latest Paranoid with latest PA GApps and it just started today out of nowhere.
The line appears in every camera setting...Panorama, photosphere, Video etc. Anyone else ever see this? Any suggestions for a fix?
What I've tried...
1) Reflash ROM and GApps
2) Flash a different kernel
3) Start new (AKA clean flash)
NONE OF THESE HAVE WORKED
What I haven't tried...
1) Wiping the phone, locking the bootloader and starting over.
Any thoughts? Hardware issue? Thanks.

It's ONLY on the camera app right? Have you tried another app? If it does then it's a hardware problem.
when taking the photo and viewing it what does it look like? line through it?

Thank you for the responses guys unfortunately its definitely a hardware issue...the line is there in every photo app and also there in gallery when viewing a photo I've just taken. I have a warranty replacement on the way to me.

[Q] New camera and HDR+

Hey people,
I really like the new camera but I have one issue which really annoyes me.
I always use HDR, and in the previous camera when I enabled it it out would remember my selection and HDR was always the default setting, but now it always resets and I have to enable it almost every time I open the camera. Sometimes it stays on, didn't really understand why (even after closing the camera from recent apps). Is there a way to have HDR always enabled?
Mine persists even through a reboot. Try wiping data in the camera app.

i think those custom rom's can not have hdr+ active out of the box for closed source or something. i have seen a lot of posts about that already. you have to flash certain gapps first. look into the camera thread in general section.

[SHARE][APP][PATCH] DISABLE limiting brightness //THERMAL\\.

SHARING THE APP, ALL CREDITS GO TO TWEAKERS AND OPTIMIZERS ON GOOGLE PLAY, ANY ISSUES, PLEASE WRITE THEM IN THE PLAY PAGE OF THE APP LINKED DOWN BELOW.
FIX SYSTEM CONTROL ON DECREASED BRIGHTNESS TO PREVENT HEAT
The below issue is only present on lg custom roms from 4.2 and up, thermel controls the brightness to low it down to prevent heat, this app patches the thermal to remove some vlaues.
Some advanced users use the dialler to go to the hidden menu to disable the thermal, this app is very useful for simple and fast, also to tablets with no dialler.
Hey every one,
Today, I'm going to present to you an easy way to disable the auto lowering the brightness when in 100%, and make it sit for life-long...
It's an easy way...
I HAVE NOT DEVELOPED THAT APP!!!
Its BTW already there, but i want to share it with you guys!!
Q: What is it? A: its an app called "LGBrightnessPatcher"
Q: What it does? A: it restrict the system from getting brightness decreased, when slight heat.
Q: Require root? A: of course!
Q: Does it glue the brightness to 100%? A: No, you can adjust it from the brightness slider bar...
The app patches the brightness watcher and preventing it from changing the value when the screen gets 100% after an amount of time to let the device cool down, and not to get heat...
Other than that, the patching process would not take longer than 10 seconds!! and its totally safe!! i tested it myself!!
Instructions:
1. Root your device.
2. Install the app from the links down below.
3. Give root permission grant.
4. Touch on apply permanent patch.
5. Wait 5 seconds, got a toast massage?
6. Reboot.
7. Enjoy 100% brightness without limiting!!
Before download, let me thank the developer of the app, Tweakers and Optimizers who make that app possible!!
Its an genus app BTW!!!
Links, why? you'll find it in play store: LGBrightnessPatcher
Have a good day everyone! and get your G3 brighter, i mean stick at 100% all the time...
FEEDBACK guys, i tested it in LG G PAD V500, in stock 4.2.2 and 4.4.2, hope will work for the G3...
Press thank, rate...
15/04/2015: Looks like some folks have troubles installing the patch correctly, to fix the problem install busybox from play store.
