Hey guys!
If any developer could answer, i would like to know if it's possible to port Nexus 5 camera drivers to out Moto G 2014. Both phones shares the same module, the only exception is the lack of OIS on G. Moto was >very< lazy on updating the camera. G has only 720p video recording support, even the hardware supporting 1080p.
G is running on 5.0.2. My question is: is it possible to implement camera api v2 using nexus 5 blobs?
No.

Hello guys, is there a chance that with the new camera API in Android L we will see slow motion feature on a Nexus 5? i'm really interested in this argument and so i made a lot of searches about it. What i found is that Jishnu, the developer that made the Camera mod for the Nexus 5, said that the problem is there's no libs for the slow motion implementation. I really wish to know if our phone is hardware capable of that feature and so the implementation is only software related or not.
Sorry for my English xD
Upon, doing a bit of research, the imaging sensor on the Flex2 looks to be an older Sony IMX-135, this camera is in use on the Galaxy S4 and Im seeing varying degrees of certainty on whether or not the Camera2 API will fully work on the GS4. anybody with a flex2 mind running the manual camera compatibility test?
Flex 2 does not support the new camera API stuffs. Thanks to @wolfgart for confirming.

Very bad to hear that LG don't support row mode as you have discovered.
LG : if you are reading here, check your lags on the UI.
I want to say also that is not acceptable to have lags on this UI ( i have F510K variant ) we have DDR4 modules !!!!

I don't think so.
Actually I have built some application with camera2.0 api base on TestingCamera2 to capture SENSOR_RAW data.
what is the manual camera compatibility test? does it mean CTS for camera2.0?

It is an app on the play store.
Contrary to what wolfgart and autoprime say, running the compatibility test checks as 100% compatible with camera2 api. I have not downloaded yet, because my phone is one of the lemons with weird pink squares all over my screen. Swapping in Monday.
I can also confirm the lg g flex 2 is showing as camera2 api compatible...
Ive got the Unlocked Euro version.
I was curious, do we lose photo quality when using cm12.1?
I remember on my LG Optimus L90, the camera quality went sour after leaving stock, photos looked more blah and grainy.
Is that the same case on the Moto G 3rd gen?
I really love the camera on here and would hate to lose its quality aha.
Thanks in advance ?

You can test it your self, just take some photo's with stock cam and than switch over to cyanogenmod or any other rom
and take the same picturs. than just compare them
There was a port of stock Motorola Camera and Gallery app to CM12 in this forum somewhere and people say it give stock camera quality
EDIT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/port-motorola-camera-gallery-to-cm12-t3201199
Hi, I simply installed from the play store the Motorola camera on the CM 12.1 and now on the unstable CM13.
I used Open Camera on the moto g 2013, but on the 2015 the Motorola camera has a better feeling. There also a lot of options with the debug button.
I couldn't make out any difference between the stock and CM image quality. Similar results for me. YMMV.
Story:
I broke my nexus 5 camera and replace it with LG G2 13 MP camera instead of using original 8 MP module.
Nexus 5 and G2 have same Chipset "Qualcomm MSM8974 Snapdragon 800" and similar motherboards (camera port is same).
So I had no problems to fitting everything together.
Problem:
After this my camera app crushes when I try to use main camera. (when I use front facing camera everything works).
Question:
As I understand Android uses isolation layer (HAL) to separate Android Camera API and Camera driver layers.
I need to update Camera Driver and HAL will do the rest. At this point it is using old camera driver and camera app crushes.
How can I get LG G2 camera driver and how install it to my nexus 5 ?
Android version is 6.0.1 marshmallow.
Would be so cool if it works.
Try this: little to no chance of the working.
It surely needs compatible drivers.

They may be available in cm's source.
This needs a dev's attention.
Also, the ISP may not be able to handle the camera modules output.
Nexus 5 has camera.hammerhead.so inside /lib/hw/ so at least you have to replace it with the one from LG G2 (remember to set same file permissions) to have a chance to make it work and import settings from media_profiles.xml to support bigger resolutions but there could be a lot more, and to improve compatibility flash Lollipop 5.0 on your nexus 5 and get files from LG G2 Lollipop 5.0

I'm sorry but this discussion was made long time ago, I have no more a Nexus 5 and I've forgotten almost everything of that device. I guess I can't give you any help
Can someody do this? The google camera v4.4 has 2 problems with our device: It requires arm64, yet there are versions for arm in xda, but then another problem appears.. it requires camera2 api.
Can someone port this to our device? Like the moto camera that requires camera2 api was ported for us.
I agree, yes please! If possible. I'm running pixel experience. Maybe the latest version with portrait mode instead?
Google camera got only ported to Snapdragon 820/821 and 835 . I am very sceptical that somebody would actually do this, I better wish that video recording could be fixed in Oreo ROMS...
