I just installed CM 7.1.0 from MikG and the camera leaves much to be desired. There are few features/options, the UI feels like my original Droid and there are no special effects or ability to mute sounds like shutter and what not. Quite frustrating this past weekend when I was at a wedding and wanted to take lots of pictures but it was quite other than them reading their vows and what not and after taking only one picture I put my phone away because it was so loud. I miss the camera from MikG and wish I had the special effects like some of the newer camera versions. Can anyone help me out here? Prefer a Camera app that also has the video in it if possible. Maybe just a newer version of the stock Camera or ??
Thanks!
Here is the Miui camera.

Will this replace the existing stock Camera or add a second app?

Trying to avoid flashing another ROM right now because I'm pretty far on a game and last time I tried flashing a ROM the Titanium Backup didn't work & I had to start over again so I'm not looking to chance it again right now.

It won't replace it. Just another option. Its way better than the stock one.

It will add a 2nd app. The miui camera is your best option, and its free. It's really good and works great with every aosp rom I've used.

Trying now....
Alright, installed it and LOVE it compared to the stock one included w/CM7. My only problem is that the effects list is missing the only one I would ever use and that's an HDR setting. Other than that I just need to figure out what all these settings mean. Burst? Shutter? Anti-Shake? Where's the user manual?

Thanks for the link but that thread pretty much only talks about how to focus a photo and how to focus on something that isn't centered. Not much discussion about anything else or any of the other settings.

Thanks for the information. I think I'm going to use the MIUI camera for the time being so no need to modify any files for the time being.
Well this is what I use on CM7 and this is the "FREE" version but they also have a paid version its better than the others i think. It starts with a grid but you can take it off in settings.
Same issue here as the newer's have the pano effect, etc. and are sweet.
As an alt to the miui one, you should checkout camera 360 also. Used to be a paid app, now free and has a lot of nice features ....

It's free now?!? I used that when it first came out years ago and loved it but the devs did some crazy crap (GREATLY reduced resolution of your photos and a few other things that I personally think is wrong) to the free version to get people to pay for it and so I abandoned it because I don't like those tactics. If it's completely free now then I'm all over that!
paper camera is cool.... its in the market
Is there any way for the MIUI camera to use the volume rocker as the shutter button? That's the only thing from the stock camera that I miss.

Bah! I hadn't yet noticed that. That was a great feature with the stock camera app and I hadn't yet tried the volume rockers. My single biggest gripe with this phone is a lack of physical camera button. PITA when you're trying to take a picture and you can't quite see the screen because of the angle.
Hey guys, I'm looking for a new camera app. Currently I'm running CM10.1 nightly, with what I believe is the stock android camera. It's nice and all but I'm looking for a few simple features that aren't on here. I want a camera that focus' while you tap on the screen (instead of taking the picture), the stock camera already does this. Secondly, I would like a self timer. And lastly, a slow motion feature for video recording.
Is there a camera app/apk out there that does this already?

Hm..I do like the UI and they do seem to have a lot of features, but this is in early beta. I just played with it for a few minutes and crashed twice. Im definitely going to keep it and see where the updates go, but are there any other camera apps out there? Give me any of your suggestions! Theyre very welcome!
Have a look on the Play Store, there are tons of camera apps available.
PS. I've used Focal on Sense and aosp and it's never crashed on me.

I am writting this on the Gen Forum since I am a new user.
I am having issues with the 4.4.2 ROM. I love how light weight and non-sense it is but the camera is broken in the 12-25-2013 build. Even though the title of the rom thread says it does work, it doesnt. I am using JB cam from Market but would love to have the default KK app work.
I am also having issue with battery. I did a full charge with the phone off and it was down 20-25% after just a few hours of use. I didnt know if reseting the batt stats would help or is that just BS?
I DO LOVE the fact that MAP (Message Access Protocol) for Bluetooth is working in the ROM! Finally, my car (2013 Nissan Altima) can send text messages for me! This was supported by Android after 4.4 according to Wikipedia. Now I don't have to buy a new phone!
MODS: IF you need to move this, please do. Just know that I am a new user so I have not gotten my 10 posts...
Thanks for the help in advanced!

With 29.12. build camera is working again
There isnt any completly 'stable' KitKat stock camera ported yet... but we are getting there! The meaning of 'camera is working' is that previously camera didnt work at all with the first kitkat ports! It took some weeks to finally port a 'working' solution that alloves to use the camera!
in the meantime you can try to flash this gapps camera : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012857
primary this stock camera is working! Few glitches here and there but at least you can take pics or record video and you dont need to install 3rd party apps!
Try this, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.radcam.camera
Nexus KitKat cam on Google Store
The issue that I have now is that the camera only takes half a picture. its the strangest thing...

Thats what it looks like... its really odd... I have tried the stock camera after I just flashed the ROM (12/30/2013) after a FULL wipe of all partitions. I even tried the nexus camera as suggested and it failed in the same way
EDIT: Played around some more and the front camera is fine. Now the back camera is taking pics where there is a green bar in the middle and some there is slight distortion at the bottom. Then the grean bar is at the bottom... I am i the only unlucky one? haha
EDIT 2: Tried flashing the google camera and same thing. Is there something wrong with my phone?
Thanks for the help!
Did u Try latest build??
all camera Work
try a stock ROM to know if its only a ROM or an hardware issue
Get this ...
the panarama works, the globe view works, video works ..... yeah and now the camera works.... argh... dang it.... sorry... I will see if I can break it again... haha.
Thanks again
I think i got it figured out....
So it only happens with in the first couple load cycles after reboot.... then it mellows out or something....
anyway, I will keep an eye on it....
I have attached the image that I was talking about...
On 4.2.2 ROMS at first build of superXE ROM, it was the same thing, to solve that i remember we was able to instal FOCAL...
Maybe that's the way, try it
FOCAL (Beta)
It works on the latest [ROM][4.4.2][UNOFFICIAL]CarbonRom for Sensation[03 Jan]
I am on CM11 by android1234567 with Kernel 52 and for me the camera works fine.
Ok now I am totally lost.... haha. I just downloaded Focal and the camera looks great and the pictures are showing up in preview. Here is where is gets weird:
In the gallery, when I look at the picture in tile mode they all look fine and they have no errors. However, when I select one to view, I get blue shades, grey block, distortion, etc.
I am uploading the pics with this post.
I blurred a few things out that I did not want the whole world to see. Notice the purple in the bigger pic. When I look at the same pic on the computer it has the grey box and the purple what-ever-it-is.
I hope this helps in seeing my issue. And, yes, I have formatted my SD card a few times now. It is S-ON, HBOOT 1.27.00, bootloader unlocked.
Thank you for all your help!
use other app , for example snap camera
im using snap camera and it's perfect

its working just flash the PA stock Gapps and the camera should work fine
I have moved on to Venom 5.x
The camera works in that ROM just fine. I am just not sure what is wrong with the MAP feature of the Bluetooth.
I will create a new thread for that one.
Camera never did work no matter how I flash it. frustrating really. I will track both ROMs for fixes.
Thanks for the help
[CLOSE THREAD]
Hi guys,
I don't know if somebody had already created such thread, but I want to ask you if anybody know any app which allows me to use manual focusing, expositure, shutter speed and/or/will support RAW format. I know, lumia 1020 has such camera app, but I didn't find ported version
I have AOSP ROM, so I am unable to use LG G2's camera app, which allows me most of the things I've mentioned.
Look in the g2 forums, there is a flashable camera for aosp ROMs and works great on the g3.
In which thread it is or how its called?
EDIT I found the one you've mentioned. LG Stock Camera for AOSP ROMs
Could you post a link for reference? Thank you

If you're still looking for it, I'm using Mi2Raw Camera app for capturing RAW photos on my G2 with OptimusG3 ROM. It works great, you can also manually focus by tapping the screen or adjust the exposure. But the app itself still needs some work... I'm not sure if it's going to work on the G3, but you can try it as it works on G3-based ROMs.

Hi everybody. The camera is a big issue for everybody who use cm12. I checked already more than 10 cameta programs, but no one good solution. I tryed LG Camera for AOSP, its was done for LG G2, and that apk is working very good like stock apk. But on CM12 the apk not show setings, nothing at all, but in automatic mode that apk get the best pictures quality till yet. I hope somebody from developers will find solution for that big issue for all G3 ussers, because a lot of people buy that model because of good camera.

I have tried the app you had posted, but it seems like it does not work on LG G3, it showed me a message that "This app only works for LG G2, Xiaomi..." and some other phones.
I am now runing the AN HD ROM, because I had some troubles with the CM12 ROM - battery drain, heating up and my camera wasnt working at all (FC, camera freezed after taking pic with flash and the quality of the pics were really poor).
Thanks for the tips, tho.

sorry for being so late, here it is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540030
G3 doesnt support exposuretime and manual shutter.
Also manual focus is broken with l.
With l the camparameters returns exposuretime but its ignored when setting it to the cam.
That means for camera2 the g3 will stay as legacy device and will not have manual settings and dng support. We have to wait for the g4 to get full camera2 support. These are just my thoughts because i know that lg not cares about adding new features to old devices....

But it is software thing, not hardware.
Caute cesi
Just want to ask, is it possible to shoot RAW on G3 with lolipoop? Have G3 support for camera API 2.0? Is it any change to find it out? Im using Mi2RAW but I will miss it on A5.0.
Try this (Open Camera) on CM 5.0
Very nice Camera n alot of setting good luck .
I wonder if anyone managed to get camera quality as god as stock roms :/ The camera is the only thing keeping me away from AOSP Roms...

Hi everybody,
A lot of people buy that model because of camera quality, a lot of us like AOSP based roms. But the camera lost quality because of LG framework issue. I tryed i lot of camera programs, but results are worst. Only the apk LG camera for AOSP (for LG2) get very good quality, and i compared to stock LG G3 camera. But that apk not give any settings, also flash setings on CM12 based roms. I am sure it is big issue for all of us. If simebody can recommend some solution, will be great!

Hi, same for me. I only hope some dev can give it a try and solve this issue... Fix the G2 apk could be a nice start ! At least fix the settungs like you said.
Btw, give a try to resurrection remix rom, cause the camera quality is very nice. I'm on it since the beginnig and recording is so far better than the others, smooth and fast. It's probably between stock LG camera and XCam
i Think its a Driver Problem
Camera quality cant be solved yet.I read somewhere that devs are trying to improve but i think that quality wont even get close to stock .
Hope for the best
Jishnu's Camera f40
Jishnu's Camera f40 give perfect quality, i compared to stock LG Camera on stock firmware, and no difinerenses. But settings works not properly. And problem with size of camera monitoring on display, but size of pictures are right. I tryed on Resurrection Lollipop v5.2.5 and 5.0.2 Euphoria-OS 1.0. I think some little tuning of mod and we can get best present to ney year.

i remember his work for G2. i hope someone could pick this up where he leaved!
i think many of us would honor this and donate for a aosp quality cam solution!
Jishnu's Camera the MOD for the Stock anyone has some news about it? for the Lollipop
Maybe it's possible to port the LG framework to aosp or just the libs it require to make the camera works. I remember the folks at miui used to make a ton based on the stock one so all the things works fine. So if we could make a port of cm inside the stock or the other we could make it work.
I am also thought about that. I hope one of developers will give us good solution. I am sure a lot of us will donate for that issue.

This wouldn't work for me. It mounts and installed into /system/app, but I noticed in Illusion, that folder is filled with folders, unlike in older versions of android. I also tried manually installing the APK into the same folder as the original camera app, removing it and correcting permissions, but no go.
