So we all know that sometimes the stock standard camera app aren't the best , and that sometimes other stock cameras from other phones are better , or take better photos.
And since we have some very skilled developers on this and other forums, they have been able to port these stock app to work on multiple phones from different brands.
My goal is to have a list of all these apps . This thread will try to keep track of such apps, by being uploaded to a website , or link to the actual forum thread.
But I need the communities help, if you know or would like me link your app, one which works across multiple brands, please pm me or link it in this thread.
so here goes
List : Backup before trying any of these, you have been warned
Razr m camera port Developer: unknown
works on: 4.0
Lg Optimus G ported (may not work, make sure you make backup)
Developers: Defcomg, feav
works: ics & jb different versions
Huawei p1 cam mod
works: ICS, maybe jb?
Developers: defcomg

Ps: If i have linked your port and have not mentioned you as the developer, or I cant find the orignal developer , please let me know ,no insult ever intended
Pps:if I have listed your port and you want the link removed i will be happy to do so, just send me a p.m
Thank you list:
Defcomg, feav

Reserved for possible future need:
I also hope this thread helps developers find other developers who are good at modding stock camera apps, and which they can then help each other , and in turn make more ports of a better camera apps : The Dream
great idea
Thanks ,yeah lets just hope it stays active long enough to get a sticky, this would actually make it so much easier to try out camera ports that people may not ever know about

Does anyone know if the Z5s (all/any of them) use the Google Camera2 API?
According to this, Z3+ supports Camera2 API
So maybe the Z5s too.

Yes
Hi ,
your question is attract me very much because your question isvery informative .and i will agree of your opinion about the fact thats why
your answer is yes.You are right.
I was doing research on android's Biometric authentication .As we know back in android Marshmallow(6.x.x) we got native support for fingerprint recognition/fingerprint authentication.Not too long samsung started giving new way to unlock devices iris scanner in s8/s8+ last year,so it's there own implementation in S/W and so main problem is you cant use their implementation in any custom rom because AOSP upstream does not supports it.Now from Android Pie onwards they deprecated FingerprintManager API and bring us new BiometricPrompt API,means we can use other methods like iris,face recognition and other methods for unlock/authentication.Probably iris or face recognition might come in coming pixel.
So my main point of making this post is to discuss about the existing device with proprietary sensors like in galaxy s8/s8+/s9/9+,note8/9,mi8,poco f1 etc etc! .
Will we able to get those existing sensors work on custom roms?as far source code is concerned ,we got whole device code of POCO f1(i am not sure about IR face reco).
one thing i want mention:-i remember galaxy s5 released with android 4.4.x,which clearly dont have FingerPrintManager Api,but some smart dev xda managed to get that sensor working on android M based custom ROM .Sooooo maybe we will able to get our,s face IR working in next iteration of android pie.
I am learning about the android"s arch(also learning how to develop custom roms from scratch)
So devs on xda who have knowledge ,must share .i am always ready to learn
topics i refer for case study:-

Correction: we do not have whole device code. Nobody ever gets whole device code.
We have kernel source, but it is missing something. Mostly audio and wifi stacks. Wifi is easy to fix thanks to CAF, but audio is more difficult.
Making custom ROM's takes time because it is one big experimental process to get AOSP to work with existing blobs (pre-built binaries from vendor for hardware access) because we don't have the source code.
For IR Face recognition, there would have to be a driver in kernel for the camera, definitely. But that doesn't make it a given that custom ROMs can use it. It may also be missing in kernel sources, like wifi and audio is missing.
Ideally, when Poco gets Pie official update, yes - it will use the biometrics API, meaning that custom ROM's should be able to interface with stock blobs to also support it - this is achieved in much the same way as experimenting to get all the other hardware working. But it's impossible to know for sure until actual official Pie comes.
Most of this stuff relies on CAF, probably. If the kernel driver for the IR camera is found, or included in kernel source (don't know if it is but my guess is no), then they will have something to work on.
I think it's a bit early to speculate on such things now, since there is no public announcement from the community of any AOSP release based on Oreo yet, even.

i was wandering around and testing some things with this device.
Yes! That ir receiver(sensor) IS behaving as camera (which is not a color sensor only takes IR as input)
For testing i used miui hidden settings app
Go to hardware test(CIT)>52.ir camera.
And voila! You can see output on screen what this sensor sees
NOTE:- you can open this CIT settings if you tap kernel version number times, but you won't get that "ir camera" option, soooo you have to install that app
Btw anyone working or creating device tree for this device?
Well yea xiaomi is notorious for not giving up whole source, that's kinda bytuh thing

Did you perhaps had some time to look in to this ?
If they used this api in the latest pie beta ?
i read something om miui forums that they used the biometrics API in miui 10 pie versions from other phones.
i'm lacking the knowledge to look in to this myself :/

I'm not sure where to look, to be honest. This seems more like a back-end thing that makes development easier, rather than adding new features? At least that's what I remember.
Also note that I have no interest in custom ROM's personally; I'm modding stock MIUI instead.

Thread Cleaned of Off Topic Posts.
Please elaborate more on your request. Currently AR Emoji is not available under camera options and OP does not really plan to implement it in the near future. You can use third party camera apps if you need something like that. I hope this thread will have some meaningful discussion from here on.
Feel free to get in touch if you have any concerns.
Im talking about porting samsung camera to other devices. Like google camera. Developer made it happen.
So even with Android 9.0 Pie we still don't have RAW compatibility for our phone, and that would help a lot to catch better pictures and use different apps at theyr fullest. Please sign this petition and share it!

done
It should not be that hard to gain RAW since we have legacy HAL3. Its not a hardware limit just software limited. Think i will add this with my next Patch...
Done! Anything to get Sony to pull their head out of their [email protected]! I have an absolute disgust with companies limit their products on purpose via software, when the hardware is completely capable of more and some!

Oh thanks for letting me know! It should be less hard in this case. Possible that a simple build.prop edit with a added Permission does the job. I will test that once my patch is booting on .306. I think SONY has just not added a little Part to disable this Feature. I just wonder why since it was working fine for Me on AOSP with My Patch and everything else worked too like HDR+ on GCam Port by Arnova... So... Give Me a while and it will be solved
More Infos can be found here: https://source.android.com/devices/camera/versioning
This Part is important:
The supported hardware level of the device, as well as the specific Camera API2 capabilities it supports, are available as the following feature flags to allow Google Play filtering of Camera API2 camera apps.
android.hardware.camera.hardware_level.full
android.hardware.camera.capability.raw
android.hardware.camera.capability.manual_sensor
android.hardware.camera.capability.manual_post_processing
By adding these Permissions should it at least be available as Option in Apps. Additional can it be added to the build.prop. Example Lines:
