Hey guys, I currently have an S6 and want to make the switch to the Z5 but was wondering about the lag while in camera.
I was at the store today and noticed when you're using the camera it lags moving it around. Do you guys experience this or was the store demo just not updated?
Any additional thoughts from anyone who has switched from the S6 to Z5?
I just tried right now, definitely no lag here

I have no lag. Do you mean the live demo? Viewfinder thing?
I have terrible lags all the time. Hoping marshmallow will fix it... Viewing Internet also lags but camera is just making me mad...
No lag here.

Yeah the camera lags or skips, more so in low light. Just the interface though and pics come out fine, albeit they take a bit to save sometimes.
If you're talking about framerate, yeah occasionally it seems like the framerate in Superior Auto mode is a bit low and choppy.
What version of the camera apk are you experiencing lag with, v2?

I have version 1.0. Any way to update?

Yes, xevious was on the ball. I was meaning to say framerate. It seemed to drop when in camera just moving the phone around.
Is this and image preview lag the same?
Such a long stretch from Z1 which had a 60fps preview.
Anyone else noticed considerable shutter lag? It always pauses and captures what happens a split second after the screen pauses....

It s Software Issue but it can be in application layer or maybe lower level.
When Camera Detect the light it needs process to show Preview
this can be lag in that process.
try another Firmware
I mean try to Flash stock firmware of another Region.

Hello,
I received a nexus5 few days ago but I just noticed that the camera application is very dark whereas the photo app works great.
I am on CM11 but i restored to 4.4.2 stock and it's still the same.
Please help!
whats your phone brightness set at?

On auto, I tried with a fixed value, it's still the same. It's seems to have like a grey veil.. Very weird.. :/
Screenshot examples on this thread : http://www.nexus5forum.com/nexus-5-...t-a-nexus-5-for-christmas/?prev_next=prev#new
do you have root or a custom recovery running?
That's known issue, and there is one quite lengthy thread on official Google groups (if you are talking about when shooting in low light, right?).
Google is aware of it. They even contacted few of use to recreate this issue and send a bug report to them, and that was like 2 months ago.
This happened after 4.4.1/4.4.2 update affecting all users (as far as I know).
Edit: Here's the link for that thread: https://productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!msg/nexus/fxsT5LxuXJU/wsUpKaxQ05EJ

Yeah I was confused. I thought he walking about pictures that are too dark then I read your link and it's about the video that's dark whereas the camera has the same lighting which is normal

Yeah, I was also a bit confused, but he is talking about camera and photo mode (app), so I guess he meant video mode .
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
I'm not sure if this is really a bug though. All phones I've used have darker videos than photos. Most likely because the camera isn't capable of longer exposures while taking video. I might be wrong though.
well, if you are running a custom recovery, heres a flashable 4.4.1 full camera/libs. video camera works perfectly for me, its not dark http://goo.gl/orWkC0
But the strange thing is that it was not like that before the update. Maybe they just decreased exposure gain to remove noise.
There is one more weird thing happening withing camera app that I came across trying to "fix" this underexposure issue.
I pointed camera to some dark area and then I was toggling between modes there (eg. From camera mode to PhotoSphere, and then to video mode). Exposure issue fixed itself (in video mode), but picture was unbelievably wide and stretched. And as soon as you start recording, it reverts back to original underexposed video mode. So I guess that is just some weird glitch.

I have CWM touch with CM11-M3 on my phone.
I will try the 4.4.1 app this evening, I keep you in touch.
Thank you for your help guys :]
Yea its a known bug with android 4.4.2 and also the static noise while recording video.

My nexus 7 2013 has also been effected with these bugs.....hope google fixes it soon.

So you are saying that it's normal for the nexus 5 to have an app camera less brighter than the photo app since 4.4.2? I received my phone a week ago so I didn't noticed it, it was already installed in 4.4.2

No, I am not saying that. Read my previous posts in this thread. It is known "bug". Google is aware of it (bug reports have been sent), and it is up to then to fix it or not.

As the title suggests we (at least those who N5) had to upgrade to the camera of google. For heaven's sake in this post is not to say, you no good bad etc. .. But I want to put an attention on the video. You doing various tests from yesterday to today I noticed (unfortunately) an annoying noise in the video is that in FHD 480p. The bug or problem, call it what you want, persists in all kinds of resolution that you put. Arises especially in confined spaces, such as a room or whatever at home, standing in silence and making a normal recovery. Below I have uploaded a little video to show you Yuotube on this issue. To you a review!
Edit: obviously the video was shot in 1080p, this should sentisi more noise or background noise.

In fact, restoring an old bakup I noticed that in the old version the problem persists. As you said the bug there for months. Hopefully with the update 4.4.3 solve.

I really want someone else to give this a go and report back, I unitentionally fixed this problem by flashing a slim rom hdr+ bug fix. The file I flashed was this one http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/d...-4/10260-slim-google-camera-compatibility-fix
Maybe a strange coincidence, anyone else fancy giving it a shot?

Okay. So I probably should keep this phone... I'm actually waiting on HTC to send me a return email so I can get a new phone. I wasn't sure if it's a common occurrence in other U 11's. Even with a new U 11 the camera would probably still lag..

I'm not having problem launching the camera app, it's when I'm already in the camera and I move it to take a picture but it lag on whatever is on the screen after I launch it.

Sorry, I misunderstood. Are you talking about squeezing to take pictures, or pressing the on-screen button to take pictures? The squeeze has a delay, someone said it's because they want to avoid the motion caused by the squeeze before taking the picture. For the on-screen button, I don't see much of a lag.

Same for me...
1.13.401.1 ROM and firmware
Me two but it's less with the newer update
1.13.401
The update supposedly fixing the problem is 1.16, as reported here and in the following posts, not 1.13. It's not available in many regions yet.
Is HDR on? That will cause lag. Google it for an explanation.

I'm on 1.16 with my HK U11 and after that patch the camera is now much faster but I've no idea why they push the OTA lately to the America regional.
EDIT: https://forum.xda-developers.com/u11/how-to/htc-u11-updates-thread-t3618362/page13
#121 and #122 said US got 1.16 update now including Verizon carrier.
1.16 on my stock U11 has totally killed the lag.
I'll likely update my rooted one once the firmware is available from the US update. The camera app is the same build FWIW

I'm also experiencing lag in the viewfinder. It's not all of the time, but occasionally when I fire up the camera the viewfinder stutters so much I can't see what I'm taking a picture of. The photos take, but it is incredibly frustrating. I'm on Verizon and this didn't seem to get fixed with the last update (.16).
I live my new phone. However the slow motion on this phone really sucks. It randomly starts recording without any notice. Does anyone know if this can be hack for better performance?

Assuming that we are talking about super slow-mo, By Switching it to manual, you will be able to choose when the slow motion starts.

I love it when peoole say stuff is crap before even knowing how it works lol
The slow mo starts when something enters the yellow box. Its a bit of a pain the first 1 or maybe two times but its actually pretty damned good

i got the same problem before but i just figured it out. there are 2 types of slowmo. see the pic bro, the one you were referring is the SUPER slow mo, use that SLOW MOTION so that you can choose where to put the slowmo and lenght of it.
Hi,
Decided to check for updates manually today and was surprised to find that the new update was finally available for this phone that includes the camera update!
I installed it but haven't noticed much of a difference. I'm not complaining, as I liked the camera from the start.
However, one thing I did notice with this phone is that when you take a pic at full 48mp, if you zoom in, there are artifacts in the image. The problem is that it seems this new update made 48mp pics significantly worse! Have you guys noticed this? The same aluminum/bar-like artifacts are there but the images themselves are significantly degraded in quality.
Let me know if guys experience the same or if maybe I'm doing something wrong when taking full, uncompressed 48mp pics in pro mode.
Thanks!

I had to get a new OP7Pro due to the back glass cracking on my first one. Since receiving the new one, I haven't installed the TMobile 9.5.6GM31CB update seeing as it does nothing for our device. If someone else confirms that this latest update messes up the photo quality, I will continue to hold off on updating until it is resolved.
Thanks for reply. The other strange thing is that when checking for updates, it still shows the same security update from April and not this latest update, even though I got confirmation it installed successfully. Very strange.

The international version which I switched to is so on 9.5.7 and only has the April security patch so the T-Mobile version is as current as the international version.

You are right. Tap to wake very good and so is screen response. I never had prob with camera but once again, 48mp pics in pro mode are significantly worse. Someone else I'm sure has had to notice this?

So the 48MP mode that you are referring to is the Pro mode, and 48MP JPEG, correct? If that's the only thing that takes a hit, I may update from 9.54. I never navigate to that mode to take a photo so this may not be a bad thing for me personally.
