Hello I have nexus 5. Bootloader unlocked. Running CM 12.1
I downloaded the "Google camera" app.
Here are my questions...
I wantvthe exact camera app that comes stock with the phone..can u link me
Also the HDR setting on the app thatvi have dissapered..what could have happened? How can I get it back?
Thank you
As far as I know, the app from stock is Google Camera. And yes, you get HDR+ on the app too.

That apk mirror link should be the most recent version. If the HDR function doesn't show up on your phone then the ROM is affecting something.
i cant get to that link..its not working
It work for me!
ok so thats what i have.. so now what? my phone is bad? i bought this phone like this.. so its a little over my head on how to do things
If you just bought the phone I think I would flash back the stock google image so you are running completely stock.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
There are a ton of threads around here and on Google about how to flash a factory image. Once you've done that if you're interested then you can learn about rooting and flashing custom roms and stuff.
Buying a phone with a custom rom isn't a great idea if you don't know how to tinker with stuff like that I don't think. It really is easy to flash a factory image. The "hardest" part is making sure you have the drivers installed.
i didnt realize what i was buying when i did.. i just needed it unlocked.. so i have NO idea how to know if i have drivers. i managed to flash gapps on here so that was something. ill look at that sight.
so you defiantly think that is the problem with the google camera? could it be anything else easier for me to fix?

I'm having problems trying to get my ffc to work. When I try to switch it in the camera app it just closes. I can't get it to work with Skype or qik either.
You caught me at a good time for this.
I just restored my primary backup from Clockworkmod, the one I made right after getting root and superuser access.
I tried again the camera, using the stock camera app, both front and rear facing and was able to take pictures without issue.
I switched to video mode and recorded video from both front and rear camera's as well without a problem.
I'm interested in learning more about the stock camera.apk and how it works, so tell me some more about your problem.
Did you S-OFF and root your device?
Have you removed any system apps that came pre-installed?
Have you downloaded any new apps from any marketplace, or sideloaded any onto the device?
Have you rebooted and tried again?
Have you had any other problems with your device?
Any other info you can think of that would help post it up here, and i'll see what I can find out for ya.
I have s-off and rooted it. I flashed the deodexed rom in the development section. I removed almost all bloatware. This problem has been going on even before I used the s-off tool and rooted
Given that information, it's possible that you could have a hardware problem. The fact that you say this was an issue before you did anything to the device suggests that.
I haven't messed with the deodexed rom yet, so i'm not sure what your file system looks like - might be possible that your camera.apk file was corrupted before you rooted it, maybe replacing it with a new copy is something worth looking into.
I'm not sure if the people not running the deodexed version could send you a proper camera.apk file now, any thoughts on this?
My problem is after installation of 4.2 rom i lost my radio, but only in kitkat.The original kitkat tmobile rom seems to fix that, but then again any other rom is with broken radio. CM11 is ok, but if im not wrong the cm radio is being written on different partition, than the kitkats one.Tried KK_baseband_801.zip and LG801_20A_RADIO.zip.Neither of them fixes the issue.A can live with CM11 but i am really sorry i cant have access to the UHD camera.So i guess you guys are going to tell me to downgrade .Probably that will fix it but i`ve to install Windows 7 again so im not in a hurry.I can try it in virtual box but didn't had success before that and had to temporarily install windows.Ultimately id like to interchange betwen cm11 and lightning v2 rom with the slow motion camera and the other extras.Its just too much bloatware with the tmobile version plus its checking to see if you have tethering plan, which is incompatible with unlimited data.
Thanks
Installed stock after all, since the baseband issue still exist if put something else, but i used smileys ROM then installed "autorec xda" which is capable off flashing twrp in case you need CM.The UHD cam is cool to play with , although i wish to be possible to manual focusing during video recording instead this useless thing to take a picture.What do you think.

I agree on your comment. This should have been considered before the device got manufactured..
hi guys.
so there is something that is driving me crazy here.
i own a XT 925 and the update for KK 4.4.2 has already came for my device. but unfortunately when i updated, i got the popping noise issue and i really didnt like it, so i went back to JB 4.1.2
but the problem is: I WANT A KK ROM!
so i'm flashing a lot of KK roms and there is always one problem: the CAMERA.
all cameras that came in the kk roms i'm flashing arent good. i mean, bad quality, it doesnt focus properly.
but the stock jb camera is perfect.
so i have already tried a lot of things, download stock camera apks, change in system/app, try to install it like any apk but i just can't, the phone won't do it. it just says "app not installed" and that's it.
so i would like to ask you guys what can i do about this...
1) is there a way to fix this "app not installed" issue? i need to change the Camera to a good one which can focus properly so i can take good pics (i've already tried moto x camera apk, but again, it's just not as good as stock 4.1.2 was...stock jb camera focus a lot better)
2) if i upgrade my phone to official KK, and flash a custom rom which is KKBL, will i be able to install a stock camera APK on that custom rom?
i just dont know what to do anymore...i don't want to stay on JB, i want KK. but i also want good Camera
please someone save me from this !!
thanks
Just curious if there were any straight vanilla android w/gapps roms out there already rooted that are flashable?
Something non AOSP or CM
I was debating on going back to the straight google image but then thought I would ask. It seems all the ones I read are tweaked or basically ASOP versions.
I get why there might not be but wasnt sure if anyone just made a straight google image flashable with no tweak or modifacations?
Thanks

Why would you need a ROM if you just want complete stock Android?

cause Im lazy and flashing back to stock android will pretty much require unrooting, wiping the SD card, reinstalling TWRP and starting from scratch (as i know how to do it, unless there is anotehr way) where a ROM would not.
I just wanted to know if anyone had a flashable stock rooted android rom with Gapps already installed on it. Save time and headache basically so.

This one is stock. It has minor tweaks to make it lighter but it's not AOSP. All you had to do was search.

Ive actually been searching for the past hour or so which is why I asked, I never ask unless I search first. It appears this one has not been updated since march tho so it wont have the stagefright patch.
Appreciated tho
Right now Ive been using this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-vanilla-aosp-t2947803
I might just sit with it until M is released even tho he stopped updating, I mean will there even BE a need for updating since the patch is out, unless theres a patch for THE PATCH O MER GAWD!

I haven't been following that stage fright stuff. Haven't really been worried about it. Has Google even updated the factory images with the patch?

Well if you are running a stock ROM right now, you could probably take the latest factory image and just flash the system.img. Or if you want, flash everything but the userdata.img. This will probably update your phone to the latest version without losing data. That's just an assumption though. I would assume that if the ROM you are using is based off of the factory images, it would be the same. You could do a nandroid before doing it.
Ill just wait. The one Im using now is AOSP but pretty much stock. Im fairly sure he had it on the latest image. For some reason I have just been itching to go back to pure stock (as close as possible anyway). No huge deal
I get what your saying about putting the other one on and trying that but honestly if something majorly bugs out and possibly ruins my recovery I wont have any time to try and repair it all.
Thanks man
My attempt to install the OOS Cam bricked my phone.... so my question is Why did my phone got bricked exactly? I want to know what I did wrong since I really want to use the OOS Camera.So I was trying to get the original stock camera app to work on my device because the other ones looks horrible. I mean I have a kind of flagship device and the photo quality looks like my old cheap Huawei phone.
First I tried with an 3.x.x version of the app installed as an normal application. It works but the quality is still bad.
This is where I got that apk: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/apk-oneplus-camera-for-any-a11-custom-rom.4350205/
On Reddit there is a post that said if you replace the Camera.apk on /system/app/Camera with the OnePlus Camera it should work.
The result? It worked and the quality seems better!....but some functions of the app like video or changing the size of the picture crash the app. Now the phone got really hot for some reason. No idea why but anyways I decided to go "creative" and I analyzed the official OxygenOS Rom(This is where I got the OOS Camera apk) to see what files where related to the OnePlus Camera app and then I pushed it through ADB to the respective directories of my phone.
These are the directories that I added with their specific files:/system/priv-app/OnePlusCameraService/
/system/system_ext/priv-app/OnePlusCamera/
/system/system-ext/priv-app/OnePlusGallery/
Then I rebooted the phone expecting to see the OnePlus Camera working in all it's glory!...The phone got stuck in the boot logo.
The phone stays on the boot logo for some seconds, then reboots again but this time in Recovery mode and says this:
Can't load Android System. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you might need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data store in this device.

I did the factory data reset but it did not work.
Now this might seem relatively easy to fix by using adb right? Well it is the worst moment to have the usb port damaged so until I fix that I have this beautiful OnePlus Paperweight.
The last detail is I actually deleted a folder which contained the .xml config files of the OOS Cam I installed on the second try because I thought it might cause some issues with the last try. Those files were on /system/data/
The phone have the bootloader open because I use a custom ROM and this one is called "/e/" which is based on Lineage OS. I used the wireless ADB function since my usb port is damaged, it jsut works as a charge port.
Again my main motive to this post is to understand "what did I do wrong?". I don't get why Android thinks the data is corrupted. The files are the official ones and as far I know I didn't deleted any important files. I even want to try with a more modern version of the app since I use the 6.4.45. This is the one that came on my phone the moment I opened the box. I want to see if the quality of the pictures got better with a newer one.
If you read this massive dump of text...thank you!
