Hi all,
When using the leaked Gingerbread ROM, the camera and video app revert to the default Android one and we lose the LG camera / video app.
I don't really mind this except for the fact that having the video on 'High' uses the psuedo 1080 and is not nearly as smooth as the 720p recording on the Froyo ROM.. I saw the same issue with "1080p" on the Froyo ROM.
What I'd like to do is force it so that "High" is 720p.
Is there a hack that will let me set this permanently, or an app that will let me select this on the fly?
I'd much rather have smooth video at 720p than psuedo 1080p that's a little jittery.
Thanks so much for any information.
I found my own solution.
Download LgCameraPro from the market.
It's a camera and video camera replacement that has TONS of features and even allows you to set your own custom recording resolution, bitrate, framerate, etc..
GREAT app so far (although I've only been playing with it about 20 minutes).
I to have that app you speak of and I like the video camera but I dont like any of the Camera apps in the market they all shoot crappy pics the closest one to even the stock android app is called camera advance so right now I use the stock app for camera and LGcamerapro for the video mostly sometimes I just use the stock for video but I heard that it only shoots in 720p and not 1080p. I updated with the LG update as soon as it came out I mean hours after the release Someone said that the LG update lost 1080p video capabilities but the OTA got them back. So Again I am confused does my stock app shoot 1080p or 720p.
Hey
I was looking how to get 120 fps video recording on custom rom and I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/moto-camera-slowmo-t3231608 All you have to do is to flash zip form this thread and install any Moto camera app (for example that one http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/app-camera-galery-t3216944 ). If you have issues try to delete camera's data. I tested it with aosp running squid kernel and everything works fine :good:
Tested on 6.0 caf
Camera records video but it has normal speed, not slowmotion so it's not working
btw THERE IS ONE SMALL BUG
This mod is from moto g which has 2mpx (or 1,3 i dunno) front facing camera so phone thinks you can record 720p videos so front camera can't reocrd videos with this mod anymore but it can still take fotos. You can easly modify this file if you have root fix it.
Cm12.i and this don't work for me
What's happening?
I tested it, it works fine in cm 12.1 with squid kernel:good:
It works in cm13(temasek, crDroid) too. Moto e2, xt1524.
Good work
UPDATED - NOW WITH STABLE 30/60/90/120 FPS IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS!
NOTE! YOUR DEVICE MUST HAVE UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER! THIS INSTRUCTION ONLY FOR SNAPDRAGON VERSION PHONES!
Instruction for android nougat(TWRP):
If you want to record smooth 60(90) fps fullhd and 120fps hd videos with clear stereo sound and stabilization, follow these several simple steps:
1. Okay, it is supposed, that your device has unlocked bootloader, installed usb drivers and last fimware on android nougat or android oreo.
First of all, go to camera settings and wipe all data from system camera app, then download all necessary files from my GoogleDrive folder "ALL TOOLS" HERE.
Copy all files on your sd card except recovery.7z
2. Unpack recovery.7z on PC in any folder.
Turn off your smartphone and enter fastboot mode(vol- and power on), connect your phone to PC and run boot_twrp.bat from "tools_r25.0.3-windows (2)" folder, follow instructions on the screen.
Wait for running twrp. (TWRP recovery won't be flashed on your device!)
P.S. Pass this step if u aready have flashed twrp recovery before it.
3. Tap install, and flash: Camera_2API_addon.zip => camera.zip => sound_fix_redmi_note4x_v1.zip=>BOLTiSHok_60-90_FPS_FHD_s5k3l8 & fiks cvet-90moto_60gcam&snap.zip(for samsung s5k3l8 sensor) or BOLTiSHok_superFPS.zip(for all types of camera sensor)=>( and MIUICameraBraviaV4.zip if you want replace miui stock camera app with modified one)
back to previous menu and wipe dalvic/art and cache
And finally DO NOT FORGET FLASH lazyflasher-no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip !
Reboot your smartphone and enjoy smooth video 60 fps recording with clear stereo sound with snapdragon camera.
Note. Your default media profiles will be replaced with modified ones and all camera apps now using h.265 codec with fix for sound recording.
P.S. And of course 60 fps recording requires a lot of light, so unfortunately you can not make a video inside buildings with low light.
Also, I noticed some glitch, when i try to switch between 4k and 1080p mode with enabled stabilization, so i recommend to turn it off before changing resolution in video settings. + slow mo 720 p recording seems not working, but it works in miui camera
Okay, Now you can record with stable 30/60/90(for FULLHD)/120 fps(for HD) even in low light conditions!
Original libs for turning back also added.
All video modes(for samsung sensor) atm are:
4K/1080p 30FPS
FULLHD(60/90 FPS), HD(60/90/120 FPS), Front Camera(HD 60 FPS)
SLOW MOTION: FULLHD(60/90 FPS), HD(60/90/120 FPS), Front Camera(HD 60 FPS)
Slow motion video sample in 1080p
Instruction for android oreo and android nougat for all sensors(MAGISK) without sound fix and snapdragon camera:
Use magisk modules from my GoogleDrive folder "ALL TOOLS" HERE.
There are 2 types of module:
1) For Android Nougat and Oreo(non treble)
2) For Oreo(treble)
======================================================================================================================================================
Now u can record 60 fps video with GCAM
======================================================================================================================================================
Warning! Upgrading your fimware is accompanied by erasing "/system" partition, therefore you have to repeat all steps from instruction again!

I was waiting for your thread since you announced it on 4pda, let's see.
I have some questions.
I am on LinageOS, do I have to flash camera2api again even though I already have it enabled?
Can I still install the modded Google camera without having any conflict? No conflicts with h.265codec?
Is this the MIUi camera which works on custom ROM? Does beautify work?
My biggest concern is the Google camera. I don't want to mess it up. Your post says snapdragon camera will be installed right? So recording in 60fps will only work on that app and not others?

I cant say how it works on lineageos, because i have never installed it.
If u have camera2api enabled already, so obivously u do not need to flash it again.
I have installed miui mod camera, gcam and snapdragon camera together, all apps using the same h265 codec and i dont have any conflicts, all works pretty well.
I shot several videos in these apps and only snapcamera allows to record true 60 fps.

Thanks I will try it. How about other apps like Facebook Live, instagram? Snapchat? Will this be messed?
Also how about safety net and Magisk? Will safetynet still pass? I'll try it out.

I dunno why u worry about fb and other messengers, it doest even relate to video calls
Shortly ur profiles for sound and video will be replaced, thats all. If lineageos has the same paths for these files, so it should work.
Using Lineage OS 14.1 I can confirm that 60fps and 120slowmo works. I just installed the Snapdragon Camera(apk only). Thanks!
confirmed working on AOSP based rom

Since I didn't install the media_profiles from the zip i don't think so.

I installed with the media_profiles file and it works too
maybe its app dependent?
Do I have to flash lazyflasher, I'm on LOS. And where do I get it?

Even without ZSL phone takes photo almost instant, same as with ZSL turned on. Well, these options seems to not work on our phones too.

I don't think you need lazy flasher if you are on LOS or AOSP? It is only for MIUI roms? I have never used it
That sound fix is the file with media profiles?
Hi, I have tried 2 different CR Android 11. and video recorder doesn't work properly.
For example, in Gcam I can save videos but there's no sound at all. (I have tried NG, and 3 more versions all the same issue)
In Anx, it records the video, but when I go to gallery the video length says 14 hrs and it doesn't even play the video.
Is there any app that records video properly without bugging so much?, to me video recording is essential on my phone. I'm seriously considering going back to MIUI because I see that all CR have the same issue.

Just happened the same thing to me in Lineage OS 17.1.
I wonder if it is related to some libs missing or being different in some Roms. I couldn't make video recording work right with any camera app.
At the moment I went back to MIUI Global Rom until I find if it is rom related, if it is any issue with some library or what else could I do to choose an appropriate rom. Because it is very tired to begin rom switching only to discover again that video recording doesn't work and I have to reflash and reinstall apps again.
Edit; I forgot to ask if you were able to solve your issue
Hi, I have a Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G (codename: VEUX, verified using adb) Indonesia version (model: 2201116SG). Right now I'm using Evolution X ver 7.3 (build Nov 20, 2022). Before, I'm using stock MIUI Global 13.0.2.0 (RKCIDXM). I posted this thread to present my findings about this phone, and hopefully find a fix.
I was trying to find a suitable GCam port for this phone, but ONLY Arnova8G2's ver 8.4.300 GCam port that works in this phone. All other ports will crash or show black screen when using Video recording mode. However, photo mode works just fine in all GCam ports. I can even add auxiliary cameras and enable the tele/macro and ultrawide lens. The problem reappears, however, when I enable aux cam in Arnova8G2's GCam port. The app keeps crashing when I switch to video mode, and I need to clear app data and cache to get it working again.
I've also installed Open Camera by Mark Harman, and tried to record 1920x1080 video, but it says "Failed to record video". The highest resolution I can get is 1600x900. Lowering the FPS didn't help, It says "Sorry, frame rate not supported on your device".
Playing 1920x1080 videos (whether 30 or 60fps) worked just fine using Google Photos. If the resolution is higher than that, then Google Photos and any media player will refuse to play it. The highest video resolution I can play is 1080x2040, even a 1080x2400 video (same resolution as the display) results in the same error.
I haven't tried recording and playing 1080p videos back in stock MIUI, but judging from the Live Wallpaper Bug Thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/dynamic-wallpaper-mi-video-bugs.4439695/), the problem might persist in stock ROM.
I know that the Snapdragon 695 SoC has a hardware limitation of recording video up to [email protected] But, this thing was like "GIVE ME A VIDEO THAT IS EXACTLY 1080x2040, OR ELSE. AND DON'T EVEN THINK TO RECORD AT 1080p!!". I still have my old Redmi S2 (codename: YSL), and just for reference, I tried installing one of the GCam port file that I've used in this phone. Guess what, the Arnova8G2 version didn't work, but other GCam port works perfectly. I installed BSG 8.1 GV2b in Redmi S2, and managed to record [email protected], although it crashed in like 3 seconds. Playing a 1920x1080 30fps video (a much higher resolution than the 720p display that the Redmi S2 has) using Google Photos also works, although as expected, the video is very choppy.
So, In conclusion, the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is picky about what video to play and record. This might be a hardware problem, because it persist even in different ROMs. If this really is a hardware problem, then It's kinda suck, 'cause I need to record important video occasionally. Oh well, I'll need to use other tricks just for recording video then. I wanna hear what you guys thought about this though.
We been struggling with this since this phone came out, but i been playing videos up to 4k on mx player without a problem
still no solution to record 4k tho
Is a hardware limitation from the snapdragon processor. There is no way of make 4K recording in this device.
4K playback is fine.
Aw bummer. Welp, on the bright side, I've finally managed to find a perfect GCam, It's BSG's GCam MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix_MGC. Everything works, including video recording up to [email protected], front camera works, slow motion, etc.
