Google Nexus 5 Camera & Photo stalibizer issue - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
I have a strange behavior when I try to take pictures or record a video either using the google app or third party apps.
After a few secondes the camera makes a small sound and the image moves quickly from the right to the left
It seems like an image stablisation issue.
I have uploaded a small video to youtube to show the result

Do I need to send the phone for a repair?
Thank you

Instagram Picture/ Video Poor Rear Camera Quality

Hi guys,
I am using latest global stable rom (7.5.1) and i noticed something wrong with instagram. As you all know instagram released new update and you can use the instagram like @snapchat which you can upload your story. I liked the app. But the problem is when you upload a story you have to take a picture or record video inside of the application. When i try to do that simply the rear camera picture or video quality is amazingly poor.
Any other one faced the issue? And any solution you you can provide?
Btw I tried global developer rom latest version as well (6.7.29) which came back to same issue as well.
Waiting for your feedbacks. Thanks.
After few tries..
Well ok what i found out after few tries is quite funny and simple. The problem is not the camera drivers or device specs.
Instagram app is automatically selecting the lowest quality video recording option. What i am trying to say is; since rear camera has recording options ( sd, hd, full hd, 4k) the app is making the lowest quality selection by itself. When it comes to front camera since there is no option to choose the quality of front camera video recording then instgram takes the fixed one which is already full hd ( you can find video recording settings inside of camera app for both rear and front cameras) I believe this is done due to decrease the data consumption.
So now the case is if we can simply remove the option of 'SD Video Recording of the back camera' then we can post good quality videos on instagram
So if someone know, how the camera recording quality can be removed from the system please let me know
Thanks in advance

What happened to SNAP MOVIE? Any recommended apps that can replace this feature?

I currently use my G6+ to do all my video recording work for my YouTube channel. I fell in love with the snap movie mode in the video camera options because it let me record snippets throughout the day and save them all into a short video file so later I can edit on my computer. I have searched and searched and cannot find an app in the play store that can do this. Almost all video apps can record and pause but the moment you close the app or go to home screen or screen off, the current video is automatically saved as a video file and next time you use the app it starts a new video. I don't want 70 different video clips to edit each day, I want an app that can start and stop at the press of a button and keep those recordings in the same video timeline until I am finished to where I can then save as a final video. I really would like to upgrade to the G7 or V35 but from what I understand the snap movie feature was removed.
My reason for using LG phones is the wide angle camera and Snap Movie.
Is it possible to get this feature back with a newer device? Anyone know of an app that can do what I am asking?
Thanks again for the help!

Live photo option for Pixel 3? In dire need!!! Please help! with sound!

Hi,
First off just want to say I am a long time XDA fan from way back to windows mobile and I am in a bit of a crisis state currently. I have always been anti apple and drank the android phone coolaid forever but I am struggling currently because I have a very strong desire for the live photo feature. (Video before and after every picture I take WITH audio) I know the pixels have motion photo and all that but without sound it is so much less. I have found that camera MX supports this but google photos doesn't detect the live photo aspect of the picture to upload it.
Everyone around me thinks I am going crazy causing I am thinking of putting up with all the things I hate about apple just for the live photo feature. The camera is my number one used item on the phone so that is why I would think of switching. I am a Dad of 3 and love these short videos and take way to may pictures.
Is anyone aware of a way to get google photos to detect camera MX's live shots? Or get audio on google motion photos? Or some other app that can do this?
Not sure if this is posted in the right spot so mods please move if needed...

Taking pictures with Instagram/Messenger

Hey guys, quick question regarding the image/video quality in 3rd party apps.
As we all know, on most (all?) Android devices, if you take a picture within Instagram for example, it basically just snaps a frame from the viewfinder, so you're better off shooting a pic with the Camera app, then upload that to whatever social media app.
Is that the case also with the Pixel 4a?

Question Problem exporting slowed down videos

Hello,
When I shoot video with slow motion option in original camera app, then I go to google photo app, I choose slow motion effect in and out, but when I export on whatsapp or instagram or anything else, it's the whole video that is slowed down... is that normal?
(looking for it seems to me that this is a problem that goes back to pixel 2 already...)
Download it to your phone first and then send it
I had a problem the other week where two short videos I sent my brother through Google Photos continued to say "processing" for him each time he checked for over a week or more. We gave up and they weren't important enough to bother just using Google Drive or any other way.
