Samsung Galaxy S4 Camera App on Nexus 5

Hello everybody
I just bought the N5 32GB version, but I thought it would be possible to have the S4's camera app on this device since it has more functions than the n5's stock camera app. I woukd also be interesting to have the dual camera function in order to take two pics simultaneously (front and back camera). Playstore don't offer much, or are not comparable with the s4 camera. May you tell me where to download it or if there is a special version for ours n5?
Thanks.

Nothing yet
Probably won't since Samsung has an entire set of weird proprietary drivers.

Won't work, uses Samsung's proprietary framework. Some alternatives you can look at include Focal in the play store, and a few developers here are working on an LG G2 port and a Lenovo port. I can't believe how bad the stock camera has gotten which each android update. Google keeps removing settings and customization options. Why in the world do they think the end user only wants to change one setting at a time? I really dislike how the settings close as soon as you make one change.

I don't have an alternative unfortunately. The stock camera app may not have too many features, but it serves all my purposes well.

Snap Camera seems fine, but it doesn't have as much features as S4, unfortunately.

In s3 never Achieved the port. Here I see impossible.
Sorry for my bad english.

yes

that's not going to happen. Maybe, but probably not.

True. Note 8's main selling USP is Dual Camera and Portrait Mode. They are not going to do that.
It can be achieved by third party application though but not sure about samsung.

That and we already have selective focus. It sucks but they might upgrade it.

Selective focus does not suck, and was better implementation of bokeh than google camera 'snap then move phone upwards', for years.
The only difference between portrait mode and selective focus is that one you select amount of blurring beforehand, and the other one after the pic is taken. That and obvious differences (dual lens etc.)
Don't see how they can achieve that with our single lens.
And please, this is phone arena article after all. They just had a slow day and needed to make **** up. They either speculate or regurgitate old stuff and present it as something new, to fill news.

Google Camera Port Optimal Settings

As many have heard or experienced, the stock Razer camera sucks. The Google Camera Port is awesome but does anyone know the optimal setting for the Razer phone? Those options are complex and I have no idea about really any of them.

I haven't tried that TBH. I just use the internal storage.

Here you go
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/....20_7.0H_C2API_v.4.0_AllinOne_Full_Manual.apk
That apk based off google camera 4.4 modified by B-S-G .
I had issues with recent 5.x update so do recomend just stick with 4.4

does it make any difference at all between the stock and this google camera?
it's the only thing keeping me from buying this awesome phone , that is the camera of course.
cheers !

Hey guys, I installed the Pixel camera app and immediately I noticed an improvement. The Razer camera seems to have a lag to it when moving it to different objects to take a photo. The Google app eliminated that. It's very smooth. Also, I noticed using the Google apk the photos don't look as grainy.
I can't wait for Razer to make improvements to the camera. It has potential. I will continue to experiment with this Google apk.

Hey guys, here's that link to the video comparison if you want to see it.
Google pixel camera apk on Razer phone.
Proves Razer's camera has potential!

The video compares the camera of the Pixel 2 XL to the camera of the Razer.
The video does not show the Razer phone using two different apps.

My friend, watch it again. He specifically says it's the Razer phone using the Pixel 2 XL ported camera app.

I think I actually prefer razer cam, the colour have a better depth and overall contrast - still dreaming of root and camera2 api for RAW capability, this phone will be a dream when that day comes!

When the lumia 1520 came out it was so horrible I stopped using the camera. Took a few months but they fixed the app, camera is still amazing even with the new phones coming out.
This is one area they're focusing on, they remarked they wanted to at least get basic functionality down, which you have to give them props on, Jan-Nov and they get a concept to market, and it doesn't suck. lol

Coming from years of Sony phones I have to say this is quite the piece of kit. Thoroughly enjoying audio and video. The camera is quite bad but I can wait for a fix.

Cool, right off the bat I can take pictures of text on my monitor without it going fuzzy like the pre-update camera app. Anyone care to try post-update razer camera app to take a pic of a website on their monitor? Does it go fuzzy?

i need the pixel camera to save to external sd card - is there a modded apk which offers this option?
obviously the reason it doesnt have that option off the bat is because the pixel does not have a micro sd slot

No he does not say anything about ported camera app. He is comparing 2 completely different phones

It should prompt you that's weird.
Anyway try launching the camera via the lockscreen see if that prompts you to change the default

These are my GCam cofig
SUPPORT LEVEL OVERRIDE: MEXUS_2015
SUPPORTED HW LEVEL BACK CAMERA: LIMITED
CONFIG CAMERA: PIXEL 2017 HARDWARE ZSL DR DOGFOOD
BUFFERS SIZE: 45
TOTAL IMAGEREADER IMAGE COUNT: 52

These might be overkill ir wrong but they do the job.

Live Focus on Rear Camera

Hi guys. I was wondering if someone with a rooted device could answer me this. So, since the A8 has no live focus on rear camera, I wonder if it's possible activating it just by adding the same lines of the selfie camera on the camera-feature.xml file on the rear camera section.
Maybe Samsung could have disabled this. Since like the S8 has just one camera and got the live focus. I don't know, maybe the software really don't support it and I could be wrong.

Oh that's sad. Btw, thanks for the answer. Guess I'll have to wait till someone make an workable GCam for the Android pie.
