[Q] Front Video Camera Bug - HTC Sensation

Hiya!
Almost all the stock cameras for 4.4 including Camera KK from the Play Store have crashed on me on the initiation of video recording with the front camera.
I'm rocking with Sultan's 3.4 kernel ROM, May 25 build.
Other then the issue, if anyone could recommend a fine minimalistic camera app that might be worth a try at, please let me know. I will shower you with the love of a million llamas.
Danke.

Best camera / video recording app?

What are the best apps available for picture and video recording for 2.2? I don't know why but I've been having a hard time finding good ones. I've been using Vignette which does it's job for taking pictures but doesn't have video recording support.
Hopefully there is an app availble that supports the 8MP pictures and 720P video recording of the X10.
I'd love to be able to use the stock camera from stock firmware but that doesn't seem to work on 2.2
Why not use this ROM? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945264
It has a working 8MP cam and 720p video recording(Though the sound capture might be inaudible not sure why, i bet the devs are working on it and colour reproduction for me was kinda bluish effect.)
That is the rom I'm using. I'm just looking for an APP to take pics / shoot vids with. the stock android one kinda sucks
well...for photos with perfect light (outside, daylight) camera360 is perfect. it has very nice effects and the photos look like they are made by a pro. (one bad thing is, that it doesnt recognize the flashlight of the x10i - i dunno why and its not for free)

so far the best rom for me...
other than stock SE camera miui cam is nice
i confirm that
I love Camera360 Ultimate, it takes pictures faster than Vignette and in my experience better quality features.
Vignette has more effects but it takes FOREVER to process a photo, and I have frequent freezing, so I don't like it that much.

Desire S problem HW video and camera on cm kernel

I have a problem with the camera and video hardware to all custom firmware which are based on cyanogenmod kernel. Camera work but does not move and hardware video on player don*t move. On firmware are based on stock all right work. I've tried everything hboot and recovery but result is the same. Install Miui 2.1.6.08 then install kernel UNITY_V9_2.6.35.14 is the only variant when camera well works but hardware video does not work at all. I hope to help developers!
another thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1437945
Start a new thread because of that everyone devs is silent. May be see here.
I've got this very same issue. I was on MIUI 1.12.30 and on Lowveld's Reaper v1.1, both really good ROMs but for some reason, the camera preview window freezes after a couple of seconds. pictures come out ok though. same thing when playing videos either through a browser or even a local video file saved in the sd card, the video playback would freeze after a couple of seconds but the audio is normal.
if viewing video camera captured in program mode it shows normally but the problem remains
If viewing video touch on the screen then video moves and camera too
The same problem
I have the same problem - any help would be really appreciated.
i have got the same problem here.
tried to use Reaper 3.0 but got the camera problem.
miui,endymion and blindice works well with the camera on my DS.
i got hboot 2.00.0002, sense 3.0 and S-ON
the app "pudding camera" works for me as a half solution, since it only takes pictures and no video, but the camera is working with this app.
hope there will be a solution soon
i know its been month since the last post
I am on reaper v3 and my camera and videocamera are working.
UNfortunately i just don't get the same good pics as with sense roms.
It's a real shame, as i take many pictures and at the same time i couldnt live without reaper rom. it's just perfect, apart from the camera thing.
im using lg camera and sometimes get better results, but in low light the noise is really unbearable. tried different settings of iso and stuff but nothing.
i dont know about developing, so sorry is the question is dumb but using a different kernel would help?

Paranoidandroid v1.0

List your setups/problems you have so far with this build here. I have everything at default globally, and certain apps (contacts, youtube, etc. at Tablet.
My only issue is that camera is broken. OP has not listed camera as one of the problems on the rom however.
The camera and video recorder work fine for me. Now the camera is different as it does not take the full screen pictures but it is still good.
Did you do a clean install?

You should try this:
1. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.lite
2. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.magix.camera_mx
But on non sense based roms quality of photos will be very poor due to missing htc image chip libs (drivers) in non sense based roms.
Thank you,
Going to test both.
Why it's a so big problems to get these drivers? Why HTC don't give them like we can see in PC world ?

In the old time, you really need a stock camera to get the best quality out but I think now some of 3rd party apps actually done a good job without dedicated ISP like Snap Camera HDR(also supports video recording on our phone [email protected] 20Mbit).
I've been tested it(just a couple of days before) on One S and found result isn't bad for a non-stock camera, the older ver of Snap Camera HDR is bad quality but recent ver does improved much. I actually think that the quality is real close to stock but the zero shutter lag function doesn't seems to be working on our phone and buggy, don't enable it. I set the JPEG quality to best, disabled preview cropping, turn the sharpen to 10~ 15 from 5(default is too soft) and you may also want to enable Stable Shot as well.

Playstore ver only available to 5.4 while the latest one on XDA is 6.3

Some guys also reported CameraNext Modded is a good camera on CM12, maybe give it a try too.

Slow motion on custom roms

Hey
I was looking how to get 120 fps video recording on custom rom and I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/moto-camera-slowmo-t3231608 All you have to do is to flash zip form this thread and install any Moto camera app (for example that one http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/app-camera-galery-t3216944 ). If you have issues try to delete camera's data. I tested it with aosp running squid kernel and everything works fine :good:
Tested on 6.0 caf
Camera records video but it has normal speed, not slowmotion so it's not working
btw THERE IS ONE SMALL BUG
This mod is from moto g which has 2mpx (or 1,3 i dunno) front facing camera so phone thinks you can record 720p videos so front camera can't reocrd videos with this mod anymore but it can still take fotos. You can easly modify this file if you have root fix it.
Cm12.i and this don't work for me
What's happening?
I tested it, it works fine in cm 12.1 with squid kernel:good:
It works in cm13(temasek, crDroid) too. Moto e2, xt1524.
Good work
