Photo sphere bad stitching?

I can't seem to get any picture to stitch right, any advice or tip? I've tried everything what's the secret
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium

The secret is not to use it on these phones, it's terrible.

I don't see how the phone has anything to do with it as its just app essentially

You have to move the camera to the spots without moving the position of the camera... imagine the camera is on a 360 degree tripod... trick is, you're the tripod lol...

Yeah you would need to have tripod, or only shoot like stock panorama, only horizontaly. Its difficult not to change a position at least for a little which is enough for picture to be misplaced. Nice picture, btw, the 2nd one.

Hi,
Can you post the link of the camera app you installed on your device? ... I'm using a Nexus S and sometimes not all the pictures taken in Photo Sphere are being shown after the render is complete.. like I took a full 360 picture but i could only see half of it in the photo sphere viewer, the rest is black. Also i cannot apply the Tiny Planet effect.. the gallery FCs when i try to apply it.
Any guesses on how i can fix this?
Thanks

The black is when the pictures taken aren't good enough to stitch together... even on the image i posted in here, i took shots of the sky as well but it turned black because of lighting or bad pictures... not sure exactly but that's my best guess...

Does anyone have the *newest* version (ie after November 14th) of the camera and gallery app? The one that allows sharing to Google maps, and has the arrows for photosphere to show you where the closest blue dot is?

I too noticed that when i shot fully 360° shot, up-down, left-right, photosphere just doesnt include all photos. Like it says, "hey, thats too much photos, i will remove top row pictures and stitch the others". I dont have anything black etc, sphere just doesnt include images in stitching. It might be our phone is weak or something so it cant handle.

Yea that's what I meant. I meant black as in the pictures are not included in the photosphere viewer.
Well I don't think our phone is weak for that. Because it can take panorama pics very easily, and it probably captures more photos than photosphere before stitching them all together.
I think it could simply be a compatibility issue, since the rendering bugs sometimes.
Also, did you guys manage to fix the Tiny Planet effect FC?

You can try to edit build.prop and change nexus s name to galaxy nexus, reboot, and see if its working.

4.4.2 Video Camera Issue?

Sup guys just got the 4.4.2 ota and installed it. Never got the 4.4.1.
The camera does seem quicker but the video camera is weirdly dark, check it out. Is this normal? My gut says no

I'm not having this issue, though I have seen other people posting about it.
For what it's worth, I flashed the OTA zip over bigxie's 4.4.1. No issues on camera, camcorder, pano or photosphere.

From what I've seen everyone who had 4.4.1 then upgraded to 4.4.2 -> no issues; 4.4 to 4.4.2 -> issues with darkness in camcorder
My guess is they only tested a 4.4.1 to 4.4.2 upgrade then called it good.

I upgraded from 4.4->4.4.1->4.4.2 and the video is dark as well. My video actually mimics the true lighting of the area while the camera brightens up the picture really well.

I think it's normal guys. My iphone 5s is the same. Camera is bright, video is much darker.

It's all about the lighting. If youre in a dim space you'll notice darker video. If youre in a bright room or outside, no difference. That's my experience on both my N5 and iphone.

i also think it's normal. my opinion is that they lowered exposure to raise the framerate. it should look better if you test it outside during daytime.

Its normal, they're purposely limiting the shutter speed to sustain >= 30fps in camcorder mode.

Exactly, looks murky, my first instinct feels its a bug, but who knows.
Weird thing. If I go to photo sphere sometimes its still dark, then I'll switch to panorama and its like the normal camera lighting, switch back to video from there and its got good lighting like the camera but its like everything is warped.

New Official Google Camera

So just in case not everyone follows The Droid Life, I thought I'd post the new Camera App since photography quality seems to be one of biggest aspects of the phone people chase.
Let's see how it stacks against our Generous Dev's Xdabbed's and Jishnu's modified camera apps that they have done wonders with. I don't know if it'll be of any use to us since they've been pushing the stock app to the max, but maybe it's worth giving a try for UI experience.
You need to be on Android 4.4+
Google Cam APK
Here's the DL overview of it. Tour
I myself don't think it will compare with the quality and feature's Xdabbed has packed into his but new stock options are always nice.
Update: Ok so I've done my first comparison. Both at 13MP, Med/Low Lighting, and forced flash with a steady arm.

Strange, but to me the google cam looks a alot sharper quality as per the rug and cat fur. The colors also look deeper i.e. the pink leopard spots. I'll have to play around more
Update 2: So I believe Google's Cam takes amazing pictures in ideal lighting and photo conditions, but Xdab's really strives at being a more versatile photo taker when it comes to other conditions such as low light.

Yeah, I saw this on D-L also. So far I am very impressed and happy to have Photo-sphere back in the arsenal.
One thing I want to try and do is hack the app to either add a 10Mwide [16:9] option or change the parameters on the 7.7M option to be the 10Mwide format that is available on the stock LG camera. Which is the one i use the most and allows for the full screen view w/ semi-transparent shutter button.

played around for a while. could not get photo sphere to work correctly. blur effect is good. images to me don't appear to be any better than lg stock camera app. certainly not many filters/effects etc. thanks for the download thought.

this is awesome. i love the blur effect. kinda like the M8 instead of having 2 camersa you raise the camera a bit and it takes another shot to create the depth of field effect.GENIUS!

I'm gonna play around with this a little more, but I actually think this might be a little sharper than X's mod.

The Google cam does look more contrast-y in the comparison pics.
Photosphere worked fine for me. LG gallery displays 3d panorama ok but Google gallery is better.

In some phones the capture button is transparent. Why in the g2 is not and how can I get it to be transparent? I have cm11 with gapps but the camera app in the play store didn't let me update but install.

This new google cam it is not so good in low light scenes...
Let's try to take some pics in dark scenes, you can notice that it is not able to focus using the flash led while stock/modded lg cam yes.

i dont like how small the pictures come out.

I love it, nice for custom roms!

Its really just meant for being simple and taking quick shots without cumbersome load times for instance like the HDR mode is super quick. I'm sure with more app updates on the way this camera app will have good potential

Low light shot.. first is x's camera, second is Google.
In low light x wins

Interesting... Wonder why I've never heard of this. Is it an artificial contrast, so like just adding more sharpening affect? Or is it actually making Black's blacker and White's whiter?

^ I'm curious as well.

The phone was designed to have natural colors, alot people dont understand it because they are use to the high contrast in displays the super amoled. Also when they review the phone they never show off the color adjuster feature..

I'll let you find which picture is from which camera app, it's not fun otherwise :victory:
It's either HTC or Google Camera Mod

Thank you for the link and all the info about the Modded GCam.
It really seems to make better pictures, but have to test more. So far I saw, it is pushing up the ISO but without making the pic more blurry.
One thing bugs me a bit though.
There is no option to save pics automatically on the SD-Card. Another thing I saw is, that the front Cam uses only 4MP even though there is a 16MP built in my HTC U11 Life, but as I'm out of the "Can't resist selfify me in every moment" age, I can really live with that [emoji3]

That's because there is no sdcard in any Nexus or Pixel phone.

Ok, wasn't aware of the No-SD Card thing. Thanks.
Have tested a bit more and all of a sudden pics get way too dark.
I have to do some further testing.

Thank you.
Well, If it is designed for Pixel Phones, there will be no option for saving to SD Card.
Could be worse.
