Does camera OIS work in all camera apps? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody. I was wondering if the camera ois feature on the nexus 5 works with every app! I know that it is a hardware feature, but does the app need to take advantage of it or it just works regardless of what app is running the camera?

[Q] Google+ Hangouts and front facing cameras mod

So it looks like Google+ on Android phones now support Hangouts. But only for phones that have a Front Facing Camera. Now here's the trick. It also supports rear facing camera's as well, BUT only on phones that have a FFC and a RFC. Has anyone started looking at a mod that might fool an application in thinking that it has a FFC? So that we could use it with the rear facing only.
Nice. It was already Modded. I cannot post a link here but you can find it on the cyanogenmod forums, under mods. That was fast, and it works on my Inspire 4g
how can i do this i have the htc inspire..im a noob

[Q] CM11 - kitkat 4.4.2 Camera

Hey,
ive been running cyanogenmod 11 nightlies and its been a good experience so far, fast and hardly any bugs. the only problem i have is the stock camera. its not even close to the quality of sense roms. it has trouble focusing and the quality is just subpar. Is there any fixes or mods to help improve quality or is it just one of the drawbacks of running stock android?

I understand that sense camera can't be used on aosp ROMs, but is there any way to improve the camera quality of aosp ROMs, such as cm11?
Well from what I noticed, the image does not look sharp in the camera app, but after I went into gallery and zoomed in, it loads and looks a lot better. I'm not really disappointed with it.

Snap Camera HDR is built from the same 4.4 source, but has many enhancements and performance improvements. It's significantly faster and has a better burst mode. Worth the $2, and you can even install a trial version.

I would also say to go with a paid camera app. I've heard good things about procapture but too cheap to buy it myself yet. Currently I'm use Camera MX. I installed it while I was still running sense and I had the opportunity to compare the two head to head. I'd say the sense one was definitely better but only ever so slightly. Certainly now that I compare Camera MX to the stock one on 4.4, it is like night and day. Camera MX is waaay better.
Finally, I should mention that some camera app makers are starting to tune their apps to the flagship phones (eg. HTC One, S4). That doesn't really help us, but it's something to consider when making your next purchase. Things like the camera really need to be tuned to the hardware to get the best performance.

Thanks for the suggestion, ill definitely give camera mx a try,
Hi,
I run on CM11 and I think the stock CM11 cam is ok.
But I have a problem when the cam needs the flashight in dark environments. The Cam doesn't use the flashlight to focus the image. Only when the image is being recorded, the flashlight is used. That's why I have bad, fuzzy results if the pictures were taken in the dark.
I have also tried another camera apps like the Camera MX but there is the same problem.
Are there others who have the same problem or can it be solved by the settings?

Camera is getting better on 4.4.
No HDR, but decent.
Bad in 4.4 si sound. No Beats Audio...
Camera is not the same in 4.4.2 roms. Some have more options, some ar thin in facilities.
just switched to cm11 from an older sense rom. Big feature I'm missing in the camera is the ability to take pictures while recording. This feature is supposed to be included on the camera now, but I can't seem to figure out how to make it work. Am I missing something?
I have the latest version 2.2.024.
Camera on 4.4.4 Deviant Xone is Good.
I think its about the same like sense camera.
Thank you, $droyd$
I use the app camera zoom fx, because I don't like the Cm camera app.
Camera zoom fx is much better.
Hi,
i`m current using 4.4.4 since update on 4.4.2 the camera can not zoom. I can zoom on the screen but the picture isn´t zoomed.
That ist with both apps (cm11 app and google camera).
Is there any solution?
Mine works.
I guess it's from youre rom.
Now i use MIUI Germany 4.3.2.8 Android 4.1.1
Camera have HD option. Foto not so good.
Picture is way better with Deviant Xone camera.
I have tried the software with HD camera, or "professional HD camera". Description is fantastic.
Soft, NO!

[Q] Screen capture/record front facing camera app?

Looking for an app that can record both screen and front facing camera at the same time, i know its implemented into sony ui on Z3. I have a rooted LG G3 T-Mobile variant D851 if that helps since i know most screen capture apps require root. And man, if there's no such app, im just gonna go out and develop it myself with no experience whatsoever. Any help is greatly appreciated

Please make the Pixel Camera App work

Hi!
Can somebody with good heart and talent make the Pixel Camera App and algorithm work in our Note Edge phone. I've been using custom rom and camera apps seemed not good enough to use the hardware full potential.

THanks!

Google camera for bootloader locked device

Hi friends I'm sharing google camera link for users with locked bootloader. HDR photos in google camera is far better than the MIUI stock camera
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-2-7-008-release/
Slow motion stabilization option is not available for video.
Portrait is not available but lens blur works fine.
HDR works great, 4k video recording is available.
Front camera shows 20MP (Redmi Note 5 Pro)
Captured on stock camera : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fWgyoaq0KwF0hnn1xd-AetnZ64ZpDWTc/view?usp=drivesdk
Captured using google camera : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1c6ugWnZWjo5BRGVxiwZ5wLIyIFXcwHV5/view?usp=drivesdk
It really works:good:good:

Google camera i have shared here is for locked bootloader users and in this camera we get 20MP front camera (this is the resolution for Redmi Note 5 Pro model)
Did you installed 2.7 version of google camera ?? If you are talking about modded google camera then you will only get 5MP front camera resolution

I have installed the exact camera app that u have posted .
I have Indian Note 5 Pro but bootloader is unlocked with root. But I don't think that should cause any such problems. Let's see what other have to say about this.

Thais is strange.. but that maybe the problem. Because modded google camera displays max 5MP front camera resolution for users with unlocked bootloader (and for those who have enabled camera2api)

Yes you were right. I disabled the camera2api restarted and can now see 20mp in front can.
But this cam is basically useless for me it overexposes the image. Miui Cam has much better quality also this cam does not have portrait mode, so if ur not going to use camera2api then stick to default camera app instead.
This is my opinion so please do not take offense.
